So far, Na’Vi has only announced one player in its PUBG Mobile roster, Dmytro “OldBoy” Bui. The remaining players will be announced “later.”

Before the PEC 2020, Na’Vi will compete in the newly-formed Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) league. It has a prize pool of $100,000 and will be held from Oct. 9 to 25. The top three teams from here will qualify for the $2 million PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) in late November. 

The teams in EMEA league were decided by several regional PUBG Mobile Club Opens (PMCO). A recent announcement of the groups distribution in the league, however, saw Na’Vi replacing Dream Eaters from the CIS region. This could mean that Na’Vi is acquiring the team as the remaining players in its PUBG Mobile roster.
