Early Life

Goblin was born in the year 2002, in Mumbai, India. He started his professional gaming career with PUBG Mobile, but unfortunately, could not make a mark in the game. The PUBG Mobile ban and the subsequent launch of BGMI marked a new beginning for Goblin. He transitioned to BGMI, determined to prove himself once again.

It wasn't long before Goblin's perseverance paid off. In March 2022, he caught the eye of the renowned Team SouL, who saw something special in him. From that moment on, Goblin's rise to fame was meteoric, and he quickly became one of the finest players in the BGMI community.


Esports Career

Goblin started his professional esports career with Team NewST in early 2019, and later, switched to THUG INDIA, NightMare SQUAD, and STRONG HOLD. However, despite his earnest efforts, he was unable to secure a higher rank or qualify for major tournaments, which could capture the attention of the discerning BGMI community.

Following this, he joined Team iNSANE in May 2021, a move that proved to be a game-changer for the young esports athlete. His spectacular performances in numerous tournaments were nothing short of exceptional, thereby earning him considerable recognition from the community. Notably, he showcased his mettle in the Skyesports Mobile Open, where he finished in the 4th position, the Battle of Rivals: Season 1, which he emerged victorious, and the LOCO War of Glory: Grand Finals, where he emerged as the runner-up. These notable achievements were a testament to Goblin's dedication, skill, and hard work.

Goblin’s impressive performance caught the attention of one of India's most prominent BGMI organizations - Team SouL. As a consequence, in March of 2022, the organization signed him to its BGMI roster. Since his arrival in Team SouL, he has been an integral part of the team and his significant contributions have been instrumental in the team's triumphs.

Goblin debuted in the THUG Invitational: Season 4 tournament as a member of Team SouL, and astounded the audience with a remarkable performance that culminated in securing the 6th position. Subsequently, the team demonstrated extraordinary gameplay in the Pro Warrior Cup Season 1, emerging victorious as champions. This win was soon followed by a series of other tournaments such as the Skyesports Grand Slam 2022 and OR Championship - Legends Rise 2022, where the team claimed the runner-up position.

Goblin proved himself as one of the finest BGMI players in the country with his explosive performance in the Battlegrounds Mobile India Pro Series - Season 1 (BMPS), where Team SouL emerged victorious. His gaming abilities were recognized through an array of six individual accolades, including Player of the Day 2, Fan Favorite Player, Rampage Freak, Player of the Day 4, Player of the Day 3, and the highly coveted Most Valuable Player (MVP) title.

As a result of its outstanding performance in BMPS, Team SouL earned a coveted spot in the PUBG Mobile World Invitational 2022. Despite the stiff competition, the team held its own and finished in an impressive 11th position, cementing its reputation as a force to be reckoned with.

Team SouL also played the BGMI Masters Series (BGMS), where it finished in 6th position. Notably, Goblin won another two accolades in BGMS, namely Finals - Tapatap and Finals - Eliminator.
