Valorant has become one of the most popular FPS titles with an active professional scene to back it up. Since its release in June 2020, the game has evolved exponentially, while the competitive scenario has also gotten bigger in the last two years.
The game's increasing popularity has attracted many former CS: GO professionals to explore the opportunities in this new FPS. Nikita "Derke" Sirmitev is one of them.
The 19-years-old EMEA Valorant star is currently playing for the British side Fnatic. The professional player has already represented the region in three international Valorant LAN events with his team and is ready to increase the number to four in the VCT Stage 2 Masters Copenhagen later this month.
Derke has a huge fan base among Valorant lovers around the globe. Many youngsters consider him their idol and prefer to imitate his gameplay.

Derke lifted the first major title of his career by winning the EMEA Stage 2 Challengers last month by defeating FunPlus Phoenix in the Grand Final. The win confirmed Fnatic's direct slot in the upcoming VCT Stage 2 Masters Copenhagen Playoffs.
