jL will serve as a stand-in for Team Vitality at the BLAST Open Porto 2026 and the PGL Masters Bucharest 2026
Esports player Justinas “jL” Lekavičius revealed during a personal Twitch stream that he will play for Team Vitality as a stand-in at the BLAST Open Porto 2026 and PGL Masters Bucharest 2026.
I would have mentioned this earlier, but I had to keep it a secret. That’s how good of a stand-in I am—I didn’t leak a single thing. <...> I’m very happy. Finally, I don’t have to hide the fact that I’ll be playing alongside ZywOo, ropz, mezii, apEX, flameZ, and that bald guy Remi—aka XTQZZZ—at the upcoming tournaments. It’s just incredible.
Earlier, Team Vitality lost to Team Liquid 0–2 in maps during the online stage of BLAST Bounty Summer 2026. The team finished the tournament in 17th–32nd place and earned $7,500. The next major tournament for the “Bees” is the Esports World Cup 2026, which will take place August 12–23 in Paris.
