The foundation of the team was built on the experience of daps and raw talent of s0m.
As of now NRG have also signed KOLER from the Immortals roster as their third player.
Who is KOLER?
KOLER comes from the background of CS:GO playing last for District 7 and hovering around the tier 2 scene for a while.
He switched to Valorant during the beta and was also part of the Immortals core that was picked up in May.
With the team, he achieved many third place finishes in tourneys such as Immortals First Light, T1 Invitational and FaZe Invitational.
