Nivera, Benched by Vitality, is Looking for a New Team

Nabil "Nivera" Benrlitom has announced through his Twitter account that he is looking for a new team, either through a loan or a transfer – earlier last week he was benched by Team Vitality.

Nivera is a 19-years-old player from Belgium, who was transferred to Team Vitality from Team Heretics last October. Being a sixth player, Nivera used to replace Richard "shox" Papillon and Kévin "misutaaa" Rabier at certain maps – he helped the team to win IEM XV Beijing Online Europe and BLAST Premier: Fall 2020.

Earlier this year VALVE changed rules for the official RMR events, limiting rosters to five players and introducing penalties for using substitutes. Following this, last week Team Vitality announced their plan to return to the 5-man roster format and benched Nivera.

Team Vitality are currently competing at ESL Pro League Season 13 – currently the team has a 1-1 score, later today they will face mousesports (6:00 PM UK time).

Team Vitality:

• Dan "apEX" Madesclaire
• Cédric "RpK" Guipouy
• Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut
• Richard "shox" Papillon
• Kévin "misutaaa" Rabier
• Rémy "XTQZZZ" Quoniam (coach)
• Nabil "Nivera" Benrlitom (benched)
