Nebula Esports left the BMSD semi-finals in second, on 146 points from 16 matches in Group A. Team Apex Gaming, over in Group B, finished on 152. The two leaders never shared a semi-final group, and the six-point gap was the last measured distance between them before they shared a LAN lobby at the Hyderabad final.
The BGIS 2026 final, which did put Nebula on a KRAFTON leaderboard, was a different kind of week. They placed 10th on 100 points, split on the official board as 60 finish points and 40 position points, with one chicken dinner. That is a mid-final finish, not a failure to qualify, and the BGMS Season 5 title and the BMSD final later in 2026 added bigger totals to the name.
Nebula's BMSD path was the semi-final bracket, not the direct Group A ticket and not Last Chance. GodLike Esports, the other Group A side in the semi-final top eight, ended on 126. Nebula were 20 points further up the same group. None of those semi-final points carried into the final. Nebula finished the BMSD 2026 Grand Finals in 14th place on 83 points.
Nebula's lineup is published on Liquipedia: Aadi, KnowMe, Kratos, Phoenix and Arjun played the 2026 season for the side, and every name there carries a player page on this site.
Nebula's BGMS Season 5 run ended with the trophy. They topped the Grand Finals table on 210 points, clear of Gladiators Esports on 189, and took the Rs 40,00,000 winner's share of the Rs 1,01,00,000 prize pool. Six weeks later the same core finished 14th at the BMSD 2026 Grand Finals in Hyderabad on 83 points, well below the second place they had taken in the semi-finals.
The Nebula name itself is recent: the organisation previously played as Arrancar Esports. Behind the players, Proxy coached the side from September 2025 to April 2026, and Truce has worked as an analyst since May 2026, while RonaK and RA1 both passed through content-creator roles.
KnowMe earned the Grand Finals MVP award during Nebula's BGMS Season 5 title run after recording the most finishes in the finals.
For Nebula Esports, the verified current lineup is Aadi, KnowMe, KRATOS, Phoenix and Arjun.
