A New Era of Team Vitality Enters the 2026 Rocket League Paris Major
As France’s most decorated org, Team Vitality is hungry to revisit their World Championship glory from the RLCS 2022-23 season – this time in front of a home crowd.
The Paris Major roster features Gaspar “stizzy” Rosalen, a three-time European Regional Champion. As a finalist at both the Boston and Raleigh Majors, stizzy is notably the first non-French-speaking starter on the team since Kyle “Scrub Killa” Robertson in 2020. He brings a fresh playstyle following a breakout run with Dignitas last season.
stizzy joins Brice “ExoTiiK” Bigeard – who holds the longest active RLCS qualifying streak at 13 events – and the cornerstone of the roster, Alexis "zen" Bernier. For zen, it’s about paying it forward: former teammates Alpha54 and M0nkey M00n “passed things down to me that I can now pass on to players like stizzy, who is the youngest on the team.”
We’ve already seen flashes of what this trio can do. After stizzy signed, Vitality stormed to the Boston Grand Final, taking down NRG 4-1 and taking first in Group C ahead of Karmine Corp. Though they eventually fell 4-2 to Gentle Mates, their impressive run gave fans a glimpse of the team’s potential.
With the Paris Major hosted at the La Défense Arena, the team is practicing in their own backyard, training just 20 minutes away at the Stade de France. “Playing in front of our fans is going to be exceptional, especially in a big arena packed like that,” says ExoTiiK. stizzy is keeping his goals simple: “Winning in Paris would be insane for me. It's gonna be the best LAN ever.”
The bet on this new lineup nearly paid off in Boston. Now, against a field of challengers like KCorp and Gentle Mates, they have the chance to prove they have the winning formula.
