Not much is known about the four players except their participation in this year's PUBG Mobile India Series (PMIS 2020). Playing under the moniker, Team Falcon, they made it through to the quarter-finals but failed to advance further as the rookie team fell behind the heavyweight teams in the country. They finished at the bottom of Group A with just 25 points and five kills in six games. TSM-Entity emerged as the champions of PMIS 2020.

Noble will likely provide intense training to its players to ensure a successful and a long run with the team. It remains unclear when the four talented players will make their debut as Noble Esports. With the amount of PUBG MOBILE tournaments being organised, their debut should not be too far away.
