NAVI Replaces CyvOph with Kolosha Before Season's Final Match
NAVI has officially confirmed a roster change ahead of the season's final match at VCT 2026: EMEA Stage 2. French player Clément «CyvOph» Millard will miss the remainder of the tournament due to family circumstances, with his spot in the starting lineup filled by German «Kolosha» Skrypka.
This information was shared on the organization's official X account. It is important to note that NAVI has not transferred CyvOph to the bench or terminated his contract. Kolosha will play for the main roster until the end of the season, marking a significant shift in the team's lineup for their final matches.
German «Kolosha» Skrypka represents NAVI Junior, with whom he secured second place at the VALORANT Challengers 2026 EMEA: Stage 2. Previously, the Ukrainian had already played as a stand-in for the main NAVI roster: in the first two matches of VCT 2026: EMEA Stage 1, he replaced Abdullah «ExiT» Al-Tuwaijri, who could not arrive in Berlin due to visa issues. With Kolosha, the team defeated Team Heretics 2:1 and lost to FUT Esports 1:2.
Clément «CyvOph» Millard joined NAVI on June 25 before the start of Stage 2. The French player played six official matches for the team, securing two wins and four losses. The club has not disclosed further plans for the player or the timeline for his return.
NAVI's next match is scheduled for August 12 against Team Heretics in the lower bracket of the Play-In. A loss will end the team's season, while a victory will allow them to continue fighting for a playoff spot. VCT 2026: EMEA Stage 2 runs from July 15 to August 30; the final matches take place at the Olimpic Arena in Barcelona.
