iG.Vitality uniforms
The second squad of the Invictus Gaming organization is having a frankly weak playing season. iG.Vitality started off with a performance at Moon Studio Campfire, where they finished in 5th-6th place in the standings and earned $750. The Arena Anthem, where iG.Vitality took seventh place, also earned the team $750 in prize money. The team has since qualified for the DPC rankings twice in the season. The first attempt ended in eighth place in the DPC CN 2023 Tour 2: Division II.
The second attempt to gain a foothold in the DPC season was by iG.Vitality as part of DPC CN 2023 Tour 3: Division II. There, Hara and his team performed abysmally. The 1-6 result ensured the players seventh place in the standings, with the only victory iG.Vitality got in their match against Limit. It ended 2-0 in favour of the second leg of IG. In summary, at the end of the season iG.Vitality did not manage to secure a slot in the second division and will also start the next season with qualification. At the Moon Studio Miso Soup, the Chinese team has already managed to lose to their compatriots from Team Bright.
