Pujan “FNS” Mehta, a top VALORANT pro, is hanging up his competitive gaming gloves. NRG announced his retirement on May 9, 2025. FNS spent years dominating the CS scene before switching to VALORANT in 2020.
A Look Back at FNS’s Career
FNS started his VALORANT journey with the now-defunct team “together we are terrific,” where he won some tier 3 titles. He then joined Team Envy in July, competing in the VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) North America Stage. With Envy, he finished second in the national tournament and made it to the VALORANT Masters Berlin 2021.
In 2022, FNS joined OpTic Gaming, helping them win the VALORANT Masters ReykjavÃk 2022. He stayed with OpTic for over a year before moving to NRG in early 2023. FNS has been with NRG ever since, competing at the highest level.
Why FNS Retired
In his farewell video, FNS said he’s never felt so done with competitive gaming. The grind of past seasons and a string of tough losses made him realize he wasn’t having fun anymore. NRG praised FNS on X, calling him “a legend.”
Thank you @FNS.
