Continuing with yesterday's trend of multiple countries releasing their ClanBase Nations Cup XV rosters, Latvia has now announced their roster for the upcoming event.
Last season Latvia made it to the playoffs where they suffered a close 1-2 loss against Ukraine and ended up placing 9-16th overall. In the group stage they beat Austria, Israel and the Netherlands and lost against Sweden and France.
This season's roster is built by Headache member Aleksey "traitor" Molchanov and unsurprisingly features multiple members from the team as well as the other well known Latvian team escalate.
Team Latvia
Denis "bangluv" Zaec (escalate)
Oleg "BudgiE" Ribkin (escalate)
Aleksey "damage" Ponyakov (G$)
Edgars "deficient" Berzins (escalate)
Misha "hook" Shavluga (G$)
Jaroslav "jArim" Kolpnev (Headache)
Jevgenij "krm" Svjackis (Headache)
Nikita "miriamiba" Tashkalov (G$)
Maksim "nalim" Martynov (escalate)
Aleksey "traitor" Molchanov (Headache)
Despite of making playoffs last season, Latvia has been placed in the final round of the qualification stage where they will face off against the winner of Georgia vs Ireland for a spot in the main round.
ClanBase Nations Cup XV's qualification stages will run on January 19-27 and the main round's group stage is scheduled to begin on January 30.
