Alexandr “pio65” Zalivako will play in the safe lane. Danil “Dendi” Ishutin will play in the mid lane. Andrey “Ghostik” Kadyk will play in the off lane. Rinat “KingR” Abdullin will play as the position four support. And Nikola “LeBron” Popović will play as the position five support.

Dendi is one of the most known and loved players in the scene. He had a long and decorated career with Natus Vincere, where he won TI 1 and came second in TI 2 and TI 3. He appeared in Free To Play, a documentary about Dota made by Valve in 2014. And he has been the face of Dota ever since. Dendi has also won a whopping five premier tournaments. And he secured a second-place finish at ESL One Frankfurt 2016. His recent performances and results haven’t been amazing. But he’s still one of the best players in the world. And it’s the perfect time to make a comeback.

Ghostik is a staple name in the CIS scene. He is best known for his time with Team Spirit, Team Empire, and The Pango. He broke onto the scene after winning The Uprise Champions Cup Europe 2016. Since then, he has racked up four second-place finishes at decent tournaments and won ROG MASTERS 2017.
