European esports giants, Team Vitality, has joined VALORANT by acquiring the newly formed FrenzyGoKill roster.

Originating in France, Vitality has stayed true to its core with a roster consisting of Frenchman Ouali "M4CHINA" Manset teaming alongside French-Tunisian Bayram "bramz" Ben Redjeb, and Lithuanian triple threat Jokubas "ceNder" Labutis, Lukas "feqew" Petrauskas, and Vakaris "vakk" Bebravicius. 

Having successful sides in multiple esports such as Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO), Rocket League, and League of Legends, Vitality become the latest colossal organisation to enter VALORANT, following in the footsteps of G2 Esports and Team Liquid.

The organisation announced their entry via Twitter stating "We are absolutely delighted to enter another Riot Games' competitive scene!"

The roster was newly formed for the Red Bull Home Ground series where they faced one of the toughest opponents in the scene in their first match. Being drawn against G2 Esports, where they held their own despite falling to the eventual champions.

With many of the top tier talent in Europe already snatched up ahead of the inaugural upcoming season, Vitality has relied upon an exciting young roster, with the maximum age being just 25. The elder, M4CHINA, comes over from a career in CS:GO, like many others before him, adding experience to the team. The youngest, 19-year-old ceNder joins from eXiLe esports who previously took home a gold medal in the Kingdom Calling series which also featured BIG. 

Their most high profile name is vakk, previously of the side nolpenki. Having notched up $16,000 in winnings in the early stages of the esport, the side disbanded after Aleksander "zeek" Zygmunt joined Vitality's rivals G2 Esports. 

We'll soon see Vitality go up in qualifying stages for upcoming tournaments, where the roster will look to break into the top tier of European sides.
