Sources - VALORANT: Nakya set to join and round out NAOS Esports roster

After finishing second in VALORANT Challengers Southeast Asia 2025: Split 2 and parting ways with Rivaldy “ValdyN” Nafian, NAOS Esports have signed Alehandro “Nakya” Fabian to complete their roster, sources told Sheep Esports. The Filipino team will thus aim to go all the way in the third split of the season to reclaim the title they won in Split 2 of the 2024 season.

Nakya, a 22-year-old from Indonesia, was previously known as a primary Duellist, especially on agents like Jett and Raze during his time with Alter Ego. He was part of the roster that lifted the APAC Predator League 2025 trophy in January, winning the title over a stacked field that included teams like Team Secret, BOOM Esports, and Disguised, though Alter Ego didn’t face them directly.

For NAOS Esports, Nakya will take on a different role as a Flex and secondary/third Duellist, alongside Xan "xan" Ng and Jerome "Mojer" Literal, bringing both versatility and firepower to the team’s setup. He also spent a short loan stint with ELEVATE during 2024 Split 2, helping them make to a top-three finish despite limited time with the squad.
