Since there are some talks about Dota 2 roster updates, another addition is here. Welcome to the SEA region, Fly and Talon Esports gang!

https://www.talon.gg/blogs/news/talon-enters-dota-2

The team is going to be composed of:

1. Gabbi
2. Mikoto
3. Kpii
4. Hyde
5. Fly

Oh wow, I did not expect Fly to leave EG. I have high hopes for this team though, afaik most of them almost had the chance to enter TI? If what my memory says is correct anyway. The team looks pretty solid imo, but we still have to see what they can show though. Hype for what SEA esports could bring about with this new roster, and whether Fly would actually now have a chance of getting the Aegis. Looks like EG also tweeted them officially dropping Fly in their twitter.

Surprised to see Fly enter SEA, their roster has some good potential can't wait to see their performance against the upper division teams in the second season.

On the China side, Eurus joined Xtreme together with Dy and Pyw (supporting cast of VG). The fight for the lower division is slowly looking like a banger as more and more teams get revealed.

Today some cool matches  Gambit esports vs Fiend  that should be very easy for Gambit they win this match.
BIG eSuba here the same BIG win this withouts problems they are to strong.
Entropiq vs Sinners esports im think Entropiq will win.
Movistar Riders vs Enterprise Movistart is the better team they shoudl win this.

It was a late announcement of EG for Fly. Hyde is their least experience player, Kpii is a TI player too with his past chinese teams.

I like this two support tandem, Dy and Pyw. What a nice set of roster changes that we're having lately. I hope that these roster changes are for good and won't change as the usual just after a DPC tournament.

Well considering that he is 29 years old next year which is on the verge of retirement for most pro players, I'd say he wants to try something else before he retire and he is getting paid alot to join for sure.

On the China side, Eurus joined Xtreme together

It seems that he is back with using paparazi as his nickname? Thought that he stick with Eurus instead

Anyway Latest notably transfer update :

• Matumbaman is back to Liquid
• Iceiceice left EG ( rumour says that he is going to Team Secret )

Its getting spicy isnt it, alot of teams havent lock their roster yet for the upcoming DPC so there is probably alot more surprises coming in

I've looked at Eurus(paparazzi's) page but it's not yet updated. Although dy and pyw has already been transferred from VG to none, maybe it'll update soon. This div 2 for CN is still exciting for me, the other teams are still unknown for their players.
I think most chinese teams that are about to replace their rosters are only waiting for major transfers so that they can weigh and balance their teams. It's a business for most teams there and they're helping build each team better with their rosters.

Later in CS:GO ATK vs Party Astronauts that should be very easy for Astronauts.
Triumph vs Eros here the same for sure win Triumph.
Northern Forces vs Big Chillin im think Forces will win this match maybe a 2:1 butt they win.
Team Verum vs Team One this match is very gambling  for sure win Team One butt when you have fun to gamble than bet on Verum  *11.42 

[xSkylarx]

Yow Tomorrow is the big day. I just saw their setup now which is cooler than last year! Also ther rule right now is not the same before they are changing as always, it was points system unlike before that if ever you win , you will win money also and the higher the bracket the higher the price which in the last game any team could clutch since the price in the last game is really higher and also the points. I think they saw a flaw from it thats why they change it. Here you go Tig which his team mates , as usual the most hype person in the game , same with jemz and all the Team Liquid players.

TNC also announced their new roster, I don't have high hopes on their roster as i'm not too familiar with their carry and offlaner but I like how TNC is giving opportunities for these up and coming players.



VP lost two players as Save and Nightfall moved to inactive, it looks like the EG announcement will come in soon.

[hanspeter77]

Today in the ESEA Season 39: Advanced Division - Europe Entropiq Prague vs illuminar  the Entropiq is the youngster group of Entropiq they are not bad they should win.
ASAPGG vs Infinite Gaming im for ASAPGG think they win they play good.
Team Unique vs EX-Save's eSports for sure win Uniqe they are to strong for EX.
Into The Breach cs illuminar im would say Draft butt that not possible  hard to say who win.

Team secret already announced that Sumail and iceiceice will join the team! It's kinda pretty scary team they built there, hoping for the KING sumail to earn TI champ again! I think this is the team where Sumail can really shine, waiting also for OGdota2 team to be announced.

It seems the rumours were correct after all and whats next, Jerax to return to competitive scene and join EG instead? People were talking about this everywhere though. Fun fact, Puppey is a very serious player and is not going to tolerate silly mistake but iceiceice is pretty much a troll so lets hope that this team works out.

waiting also for OGdota2 team to be announced.

Ceb retired and there is alot of speculation about Topson might retire as well so thats left Notail alone. OG might end up with 5 new players for their roster this time

I'm positive and can see the potential on this team. With proper guidance of Febby to these new aspirants, I think that they'll be able to compete. Yowe is a good player that has quite experience in the international stage when he's with XCTN. Playhard also is experienced during his run with Neon.

AFAIK jerax is retired for good. Nisha going pos 1, I think it's better if nisha remains to mid lane. This is the same problem in positioning when sumail was on OG. But let's see the adjustment as nisha is a very talented and versatile player.

just started watching PUBG Global Championship (group C and D just finished) and, man, this caught me off guard in ways you can't even imagine when i first saw it in the twitch stream 🤣

my initial reaction was "oh look, it's a random shopping mall in south korea" heh, litle did i know it is actually a studio and the main stage of the global championship and those rectangular pyramids things are the booths where each team is playing from. Pretty cool

as for the tournament, Oath just won Round 1 of Rank Decision, but i didn't get a good first impression from the other NA teams 😂 Soniqs camping from the get-go only to get wiped a few minutes at the start of the match, DIG and TSM barely did anything, not good enough...overall, first time watching competitive pubg and i like it, will watch a few more rounds of Day 1 (:

Yes kinda disappointed with their rotation tho (SQ). I think they have change their playstyle before and it aint kinda working . It is day 2 right now and Group B and D is matching which Gen.G and SQ which it is pretty a good game, I think SQ is kinda adjusting with their enemies which was the same previous year that in the following weeks they are dominating all the teams except Gen G. Oath and MGC as usual performing well and here we are our representative which AAP is kinda meh , i dont know what happend to them no kills unlike before that they are not in bottom

[xSkylarx]

Finally SQ won!  Thats a great rotation tho they need to flank the bottom of the hill i though they would gonna lose since the terrain is not that good luckly they spead and have a great view in the last team TSM. But ikanda disappointed 17 is the new best in pochinki which they really destroyed SQ in their pochinki yesterday, i dont think that SQ will risk to go to pochinki again.

Dropping a bunch of units on this League multi, Cerberus and Saigon Buffalos should win their matches as these two finished in the top 3 in the VCS last season.

Cerberus lost to Team Secret in the Spring playoffs but I wouldn't mind it that much since Team Secret is experimenting with their mid players.

That looks sick, the design is giving me some starcraft vibes for some reason.

Someone posted in reddit (I forgot who, but seems well known since it was spread quite a bit) that Jerax was indeed going to EG. Still remains to be seen whether it's true or not, either way it'd be a pretty good thing to see imo. Topson has officially retired and is spending time with his family now, ig the OG era has really ended. They deserve it really, after those back to back TI's, they all deserve a rest. Salute to them for letting us see an era built on an anime story lmao.

The other teams have already released their new roster so let's wait and see if that poster really has a good source for this news. But I really don't think that jerax would come out of retirement. 4 of his former teammates were already out and retired and about n0tail he also announced his retirement from competitive play. Btw, the roster of Fnatic is strong.

THE LEGEND IS BACK!

HOTDANG It was leaked yes and I also highly doubted it myself, but damn this is some piece of good news imo. The man behind the scenes will be supporting another new era, though will it actually be their era or not? I hope this brings some new changes to EG and they could finally take hold of that aegis for themselves. I'm kinda hyped for how they're going to perform now tbh, two new people being slotted in this year, Jerax together with Nightfall.
