The decision comes after Vitality's disappointing seventh-place finish in the Winter Split. Team coach James "Mac" MacCormack cited strategic disagreements within the team as the main reason for the change, emphasizing that this move was necessary to align the team's vision moving forward.

Nisqy, who was previously released by SK Gaming in 2024, will reunite with former MAD Lions teammate Carzzy in the bot lane. Interestingly, Nisqy has been preparing for this role transition by practicing support champions like Braum, Leona, Nautilus, and Rell in solo queue.
With the Spring Split beginning on March 29, Nisqy faces the challenge of adapting to his new support role at the professional level. The success of this unexpected role swap could be crucial for Vitality's championship aspirations and their standing in the LEC.
