Popular esports organization Gods Reign has announced its new Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) roster, which includes their former lineup led by Destro along with a new addition, NinjaJOD. Alongside this roster reveal, Gods Reign announced a major merger with Gladiators Esports. In this acquisition, Gladiators Esports has acquired Gods Reign and its teams, though the organization will continue to operate under the Gods Reign name.
Gods Reign BGMI Roster
Gods Reign BGMI roster features four players and a coach:
- Ammar Khan (Destro) - IGL
- Justin Nadar (Justin) - Assaulter
- Parth Garg (DeltaPG) - Assaulter
- Shubham Ranjan Sahoo (NinjaJOD) - Assaulter
- Robin Singh (Robin) - Coach/IGL
The team will be led by In-Game Leader (IGL) Ammar Khan (Destro), who is joined by his former teammates Justin Nadar (Justin) and Parth Garg (DeltaPG). Together, this trio has proven to be a formidable force in official tournaments last year, capturing the BGMI Series (BGIS) 2023 title and BGMI Masters Series (BGMS) 2023 and earning runner-up position in BGMI Pro Series (BMPS) 2023.
Strengthening the roster further is Shubham Ranjan Sahoo (NinjaJOD), who clinched the BGIS 2024 championship and was a runners-up at last year’s India-Korea Invitational. Former BGMI athlete Robin Singh (Robin), who recently led Destro, Justin, DeltaPG, and NinjaJOD to victory in the Titans Rising tournament hosted by the Gujarat Titans cricket team, will be coaching this skilled lineup.
The newly assembled team, which had combined prize pool earnings of approximately INR 2.5 Crore ($276,703) in FY23, brings fresh potential to build on their impressive track record and aim for even higher accolades in the upcoming tournaments.
