DOTA 2
News
The NA squad announces that they will be competing without an organization for the International 10.
The story of team Undying is the story of old pros, looking to find their chance of glory at thebiggest Dota tournament in the world. The squad, led by David “MoonMeander” Tan, has risen to prominence in the North American region after forming to compete the in the regional DPC league. After finishing third in both seasons, Undying had to make it through the regional closed qualifiers to make it to the International. The team went undefeated,demolishing every other team they faced, to qualify to TI.
Keeping Their Identity as Team Undying
Yesterday on social media, the team’s Twitter account announced that they had exciting news to be released today. Many speculated that it would be an announcement of a new organization picking the team up. Having done particularly well in NA, it would be no surprise to see an org getting in on a potentially well placing TI team.
One of Two NA Teams to Remain Org-less
It’s a move that may sound surprising, but only if you’re not looking at the landscape of the NA scene. The region has had a lack of org interest in North American teams for a while now. Other longstanding North American organizations have either disbanded their rosters or moved onto other regions. In addition, there’s a lot more freedom when you may make your own decisions, and don’t have to split your winnings with an org. That being said, Undying is still taking a risk. If you don’t win, you don’t get paid.
