NAVI Announce Roster Changes Ahead of DreamLeague Season 26 Qualifiers

NAVI have made key adjustments to their Dota 2 roster, announcing that Indji "Shad" Lub has been moved to the inactive roster, while Vitaliy "QBFY" Ivanov has parted ways with the team. Stepping in to fill their spots are Artem "Yuragi" Golubiev and Matthew "Ari" Walker, with Ari joining on loan from OG.

Yuragi is no stranger to the NAVI jersey — he previously played for the organization from March to October 2023. During his stint, he helped the team qualify for DreamLeague Season 23 and secured top-four finishes at both Clavision: Snow Ruyi and PGL Wallachia Season 2.

Ari, meanwhile, brings experience from his time with OG and TSM. His notable achievements include a 4th place finish at ESL One Birmingham 2024 and top-12 placements at both the Riyadh Masters 2024 and The International 2023.

NAVI extended their thanks to Shad and QBFY for their contributions and wished them success in their future endeavors.

Fans can catch the debut of the refreshed lineup during the DreamLeague Season 26 qualifiers.
