Febby is known largely for his funny personality and lovable nature and although he has little to no experience as a coach, the player brings in a whole lot of experience. TNC's win at the MDL Chengdu Major was by far one of the greatest moments in the org's history. However, since then TNC have struggled a bit on the new patch, finishing third in the Dreamleague Season 13 SEA Qualifiers and 7th at the ONE Esports Invitational in Singapore. While their win at Chengdu, practically guarantees them a spot at TI10, it will be important for the squad to regain the same momentum that saw them dominate the second half of 2019.

More importantly, Febby has played both with current TNC players kpii and March in the past. He is also well versed with the SEA scene, having played with Mineski in 2019 and Fnatic in 2017. 

DreamLeague Season 13: The Leipzig Major begins on Jan 18th and features a prize pool of USD 1,000,000 along with 15,000 DPC points. TNC Predator secured their slot after a third place finish in the SEA Qualifiers of the tournament. The other SEA Dota 2 teams joining them at the event are Reality Rift and Fnatic.
