Orangutan announced their BGMI roster, signing three new players, including Aaaru, Aattanki, and Veyron, ahead of BGMS Season 3. The new signings will join the existing duo of AK and WizzGOD to form a formidable team. The five-man squad will now aim to get the BGMS trophy that they missed in the previous edition by a single point.
Orangutan BGMI Roster
-
Ankit “AK” Shukla – Assaulter
-
Faraz “WizzGOD” Khan – Assaulter
-
Arman “Aaru” – IGL
-
Randeer Singh “Attanki” Bhullar – Assaulter
-
Divay Pratap “Veyron” Singh – Assaulter
With the addition of in-form players like Aaru and Attanki, this team looks excellent. The duo of Aaru and Aatanki performed well in BGIS 2024, although they finished 12th but kept fighting till the last match.
Following their early exit from BGIS 2024, Orangutan had bid farewell to their IGL Ash, fragger Drigger, and coach Vedzz. Although later they brought back their coach.
Ash did well in OG, but he always fell short in marquee events like BGIS and BMPS. His best came in BGMS Season 2, where he led the team to second place and missed the triumph by one point. Now, Aaru is set to lead the team. He has decent experience leading the team, but surely it will not be easy for him to build the synergy with a fresh roster.
Aaru has been brilliant in BGIS 2024. He led his team under his name, Team Aaru, without external support in such a big event. Veyron also plays well under Aaru as an assaulter. He is young and has quick reflexes. However, looking at the team, it seems that only one of Veyron or Attanki will get a place in the starting lineup, and at present, Attanki seems to have more chances.
Attanki is a veteran of BGMI, who started his journey in 2020 with GXR Celtz. In this journey, he has played with multiple teams, including GXR Celtz, TeamIND, Velocity Gaming, ORESports, Midwave Gaming, and FS Esports. He has won numerous titles, including the PUBG Mobile Pro League (PMPL)—South Asia Season 1.
AK and WizzGod are also waiting for the opportunity to prove themselves once again as the organization shows faith in the duo. Both exhibit incredible skills, dedication, and a keen game sense.
AK has a number of MVP titles on his name, including Loco War of Glory: League Stage, Battlegrouds Mobile India Open Challenge 2022: The Grind, Battle for Revolution Season 1, Upthrust Esports: The Patriot Cup, and Pro Showdowwn Season 2. He finished third and second in MVP rankings in BGMS Masters Series seasons 1 and 2, respectively.
The new Team Orangutan seemingly looks good and is filled with some amazing assaulters. This new roster can change the fate of a team that is not able to do well in big events. First, they would need to build synergy among players. All eyes will be on the Orangutan in BGMI Season 3, which starts on July 19th to see whether this team can replicate its previous performance.
