Who is TeamIND, line up signed by Velocity Gaming?

The group does not require an introduction. It is made up of some of India’s top players who have a long list of individual and team accomplishments.

The BGMI Launch Party in August, which was the game’s first official competition, was their most recent honour. They fought as Team Snax and dominated the lobby, winning four chicken dinners in six matches to take first place and earn Rs. 330,000.

The team is now gearing up for the Battlegrounds Mobile India Series (BGIS) 2021, which features a prize fund of Rs. 10,000,000. The competition’s schedule was recently released, and it will take place during December and January.

End to speculations

“While it is with a heavy heart that we are parting ways with Team IND, I’m thrilled for this next chapter we are embarking on as a team,” Kratos commented on the signing. 

“One of the biggest factors behind our success is that we’ve been playing together for so long, and have developed such brilliant synergy and chemistry — in-game and outside it as well. It’s great to continue competing alongside Snax, Attanki, and Daljit, and we are ready to bring home more trophies. Velocity Gaming is quickly becoming a household name in Indian esports, and we look forward to playing under their name and support.”

“We are so excited to enter BGMI by picking up one of India’s most talented teams. We will provide them with the best-in-class equipment and facilities so they continue to perform at the highest levels,” said Manoj Kashyap, the owner of VLT. 

Velocity Gaming was established in 2019 and has quickly established itself as one of India’s best esports organizations. Their VALORANT squad has recently won back-to-back competitions such as the Skyesports Championship 3.0, The Esports Club Gauntlet, and the Amazon Great Indian Festival Championship.

The group has announced a relationship with AMD, as well as the addition of multimedia creators Asish “LordBathura” Madineni and Dhwani “Pinkcess” Bhatt.
