The entire journey of the player with Team Vitality
Santeri "BONECOLD" Sassi joined the team on May 7, 2022, as a captain and immediately showed the fans and the organization that it was not a mistaken decision. After his arrival, the team became the best team in France, won the VRL 2022 France tournament, and received an invitation to the VRL 2022: Finals, where more than $150,000 was distributed among 7 teams from Europe. Team Vitality showed a decent result, taking second place, losing only in the final to FUT Esports with a score of 2:3 and receiving $36,000. The next tournament, VCT LOCK//IN São Paulo 2023, was not as successful as the previous one, the team took 9-16 place out of 32 possible and received only $10,000. After that, the team participated in the VCT Emea League 2023, the team was a step away from a ticket to VCT Masters Tokyo 2023, taking 5-6 place. The last tournament of this season was supposed to be VCT EMEA Last Chance Qualifier 2023, but due to a tragic incident with player Karel "Twisten" Ašenbrener, Riot Games allowed them to abstain from participating in this event.
