Aadi called Nebula's first major title at BGMS

Aditya Dawar, known as Aadi, is the in-game leader of Nebula Esports. He called the side's first major trophy at BGMS Season 5: champions on 6 September 2026 at the NODWIN Gaming Arena in Delhi NCR, 210 points from 18 matches with 116 finishes and four chicken dinners, worth ₹40 lakh. It was his fifth BGMS appearance, and the reports describe a full circle at the venue where Nebula was formed in 2025.

The final day ran the Smash Rule with match point at 204, the leader's 12-match total plus 20. Nebula crossed it in match 17 but could not convert the chicken dinner in the last game, and no other eligible side won one either, so the standings held. The winning five were Aadi, KnowMe, Phoenix, Kratos and Arjun; KnowMe was the season MVP with 37 finals finishes.

Aadi's individual shelf has two Best IGL awards: BMPS 2023 with TEAM iNSANE and BMPS 2026 with Nebula at ₹2.5 lakh, where the side finished tenth on 107 points.

At BMSD 2026 Nebula were second in the semi-finals on 146 points and qualified directly for Hyderabad, where they finished 14th in the Grand Finals on 83 points. Aadi has 54 finishes from 52 matches on TalkEsport's season fragger list.

The road to Nebula ran through four other banners. Aadi started with Claw Esports in March 2019 and joined TEAM iNSANE in May 2021, staying until November 2023 and winning the BMPS 2023 Best IGL award in that spell. Short stints with Blind Esports and 4Merical Esports followed in 2024, then a return to iNSANE that November, and he joined Nebula on 10 August 2025.
