Virtus.Pro’s CEO, Sergey Glamazda, stated upon signing gpk,

“Danya is not just a prospective player, he has already proven himself on the professional stage. In addition, he performed well as a stand-in at the OGA Dota Pit Season 3. Even better is the fact that Danya will join a roster with like-minded people with whom he had already established personal contact, which is very important because compatibility and teamwork in Dota 2 are two of the key factors that affect the results.”

gpk is considered one of the most exciting and talented mid players in Dota 2 currently. With such a young but extremely gifted squad on deck, we can witness some electrifying Dota 2 action by the young guns of VP.Prodigy. The average age of their players is just 19 and they still have one prodigy spot left to fill in the support position. Illias "illias" Ganeev who is on the inactive roster of Na’Vi is being speculated to be the final member of the squad

  2. Danil “gpk” Skutin

With Virtus.Pro’s main roster going inactive before the start of ESL One Germany 2020 and rumours surrounding a new Dota 2 superteam in the making, featuring SumaiL and current Virtus.Pro members of Ramzes, No[o]ne, Solo, we could see this young squad of VP.Prodigy replacing the mains squad at the upcoming  EPIC League.
