Istanbul Wildcats announce roster for VALORANT Challengers League

DenizBank Istanbul Wildcats have announced their new Valorant roster, which consists of Uğurcan "Anima" Aydin, Muhammed "mini" Salman, Cüneyd "hatex" Baş, Artur "7ssk7" Kurshin, and Andrew "braveaf" Gorchakov.

On October 1st, Istanbul Wildcats signed former FNATIC player braveaf to be one of the core pieces for the new roster. Anima has been on the team for a year and was benched earlier this month but has now returned to the starting lineup to compete with this new roster.

Joining today are mini, hatex, and 7ssk7. Mini is quite a decorated player in the Turkish scene, previously competing for Sangal Esports, Digital Athletics, and most recently Galakticos. Hatex joins the team from Galakticos as well. He's been on a few teams in his career, including FUT Esports and RARE Esports. These two will provide a lot of experience for Istanbul Wildcats. The last player joining the roster is 7ssk7. The Belarusian player previously played for NAVI and will bring some great firepower to this team.

We will get to see this team play in the upcoming Turkish VCL, which is set to start on January 14th.
