As the official National Team Partner of the Esports Nations Cup 2026, UESF continues to reveal Ukraine’s national team rosters. Today — PUBG Mobile. The PUBG Mobile national team is built around synergy, not just a collection of strong names. Coach Bamb1ni, who has years of experience working with national teams, assembled a roster of players with different profiles who complement each other — and it’s exactly this right combination that he considers the team’s main strength.
PUBG Mobile
Andrii “TULIKA” Tulika
25 years old. Captain from MadBulls. One of the most experienced captains on the European scene. Competing professionally since 2019 — has played for Team Pain, 1218, Boars Gaming, and MadBulls. His biggest achievement — leading MadBulls to the grand final of PMGC 2025. Career prize earnings — approximately $98,000. Believes patience is the most important quality for a leader. The captain’s job is to keep the team’s focus and calmly read the zone, while younger players often want instant results.
Kyryl “LEMON” Chepelenko
Fragger, also from MadBulls. One of the most prominent Ukrainian players on the scene — composed in clutch situations, with a high headshot percentage. Has played for Team Lakers, Titan Gaming, and NAVI (2024–2025). Together with FLIP, he forms one of the strongest frag duos in the region — the two understand each other without words.
Daniil “Lmntrixxx” Zader
20-year-old fragger from Wolves Esports. A highly technical assaulter with excellent individual aim. Has played for ARR eSports, Virtus.pro, Major Pride (5th place at the 2024 autumn finals), and Al Qadsiah. Since March 2026, he’s been competing for Wolves Esports at the Tier 1 level.
Oleksii “SLONIK” Totskyi
Support, Wolves Esports. One of the most sought-after players in the region — over his career he’s played for more than seven different organizations, giving him a unique adaptability to any tactical setup. Has played for SLY Esports (1st place at Seasonal Games Spring 2024), RUKH eSports (PUBG Mobile World Cup 2024), and Boars Gaming. Since March 2026 — Wolves Esports.
Substitutes: FLIP, DEFOLT
Coach: Dmytro “Bamb1ni” Kuzmenko
“I wouldn’t single out one individual player, because what interests me most about this roster is the combination of different profiles. We didn’t just gather six strong nicknames — we looked at how these players can complement each other over a short tournament run,” says the coach.
On the preparation challenges, Bamb1ni is candid: ENC falls between PMGO S2 and PMGC 2026, creating a demanding schedule. But the team has experience working under extreme conditions — and the national team’s results speak for themselves: first place at GEG 2023, second place at IESF 2024.
“Ukraine in this picture is definitely not a team that just shows up to participate. We have a track record of results, we have experience, we understand the format, and we have the ambition to be in the medals,” he concludes.
Qualifiers
Ukraine’s PUBG Mobile national team is skipping the regional selection — the team received a direct invitation to the ENC 2026 final stage as one of the top 16 countries in the world in the discipline. Regional qualifiers will run from July 10 to 12 without Ukraine’s participation — our national team is already waiting for the main stage of the tournament in Riyadh.
