Natus Vincere (NAVI) is reportedly making its debut in the League of Legends EMEA Championship (LEC), with plans to join the league as early as the Summer Split of 2025.

According to a recent report by Sheep Esports, NAVI is in the final stages of acquiring the LEC slot currently held by European organisation Rogue. The deal is expected to be publicly confirmed after the conclusion of the 2025 Spring Split, scheduled to wrap up in early August. While the financial terms remain undisclosed, this acquisition marks the conclusion of what the report describes as a “lengthy saga” that began in November 2023.

The situation initially involved Saudi Arabian organisation Team Falcons, who had shown interest in taking over Rogue’s place in the LEC. However, that deal ultimately did not materialize, paving the way for NAVI to step in.


Rogue’s departure from the LEC follows a prolonged period of underwhelming results. After capturing the LEC Summer Split title in 2022, the team has been unable to maintain that level of performance. Most recently, they finished last in the 2025 Spring Split, ending with a disappointing 2-7 record.

NAVI’s potential entry into the LEC signals a major move in the team’s broader expansion strategy. Long recognized for its dominance in titles like Counter-Strike and Dota 2, NAVI has been steadily growing its footprint across multiple competitive scenes. In 2025 alone, the organisation has launched rosters in Apex Legends, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, and even ventured into professional Chess.
