📜 History

Natus Vincere (Latin for "Born to Win"), commonly known as NAVI or Na'Vi, is a Ukrainian esports organization founded in 2009. The organization is one of the most iconic and successful teams in esports history, particularly in Counter-Strike and Dota 2.

NAVI made history by winning the first-ever Dota 2 International (TI1) in 2011. Their Dota 2 roster featuring Dendi became legendary, reaching three consecutive TI grand finals (2011, 2012, 2013) and winning the first.

In Counter-Strike, NAVI has been a dominant force for over a decade. The CS:GO roster featuring s1mple, widely considered the greatest CS player of all time, finally won their first Major at PGL Major Stockholm 2021 after years of near-misses.

The organization's distinctive yellow and black branding and their passionate fanbase have made NAVI one of the most recognizable brands in esports. They continue to compete at the highest level in CS2 and Valorant.
