Shopify Rebellion will not be fielding a full roster at PGL Wallachia Season 1. Instead, they will get help from Nigma Galaxy.
PGL Wallachia Season 1 is scheduled to begin in just two days time. And the hits just keep coming.
Despite it being the first event planned in a three-year plan from PGL that includes eight Dota 2 tournaments – each with one million dollars on the line to be held across 2024, 2025, and 2026 – the event organizers are having trouble keeping the teams and rosters lined up in order.
Two days ago it was reported that Tundra would not be able to compete at the event. According to PGL, Tundra failed to meet several deadlines for registering a valid roster due to visa issues. Mouz will be making their debut back into Dota 2 instead.
Then the Southeast Asia representative Blacklist International faced the same issues in securing the travel documents for all their members and have been replaced by Azure Ray.
One week ago SR bid farewell to Thiago “Thiolicor” Cordeiro. So a replacement for him was expected. What wasn’t expected was to see a second stand-in listed for the team.
Nigma Galaxy are supplying the two replacement players. Nigma has continued to fall horribly short of prestigious appearances or decent events for some time now, so the MENA-based team was just sitting on the sidelines, waiting for another opportunity to contract players out.
Shopify Rebellion PGL Wallachia Season 1 roster:
Artour “Arteezy” Babaev
Syed Sumail “SumaiL” Hassan
Jonáš “SabeRLighT-” Volek
