Significant pre TI10 roster changes

If you are wondering what changes occurred before TI10, here are some of the most notable changes from 1st Sept 2021 until the start of TI10.

On 1st Oct 2021, Roman "Resolut1on" Fomynok departed from HellRaisers to take a competitive break. On 6th Oct 2021, Damien "kpii" Chok parted ways with Team SMG and later announced his search for a new Dota 2 team.

BOOM Esports

Following the failure to secure a TI10 berth, BOOM Esports made some drastic changes to its Dota 2 roster. In addition to leaving the organization, Alfi "Khezcute" Nelphyana also retired from competitive Dota 2. Furthermore, Randy Muhammad "Dreamocel" Sapoetra (carry) and Brizio Adi "Hyde" Putra (position four player) parted ways with BOOM Esports. Rafli Fathur "Mikoto" Rahman was placed inactive and BOOM Esports welcomed Timothy John "Tims" Randrup, Rolen Andrei Gabriel "skem" Ong, and Erin Jasper "Yopaj" Ferrer as new players. All these changes took place between 3rd and 17th Sept 2021.

TNC Predator

TNC Predator parted ways with its entire roster on 15th Sept 2021 after the team failed to secure a spot at TI10. The organization mentioned that it would hire a new bunch of players for the next DPC season.

NAVI

NAVI unveiled its new roster on 2nd Sept 2021. The renowned Eastern Europe organization arrived at this roster after a number of changes over the course of the season.

  1. Alik "V-Tune" Vorobey (from NAVI’s inactive roster to active)

  2. Vladimir "No[o]ne" Minenko (from NAVI’s inactive roster to active)

  3. Viktor "GeneRaL" Nigrini (from NAVI’s inactive roster to active)

  4. Ilya "ALOHADANCE" Korobkin (from without a team to NAVI)

  5. Alexey "Solo" Berezin (from NoTechies to NAVI)

More roster changes post TI10 are likely once the dust settles. Considering DPC 2022 is scheduled to begin on 29th Nov 2021 as per a tweet from Alliance, there is not much time left since teams will want to gather as soon as possible to begin practice. Valve is yet to issue an official statement on the dates of the DPC 2021-2022. Additionally, there were a number of complaints about the format and length of the regional leagues made by professional players during DPC 2021. Therefore, it remains to be seen if Valve shall address these concerns once the official announcement for the DPC 2022 is made.
