It seems that Invictus Gaming has taken a long time to evaluate what to do. However one thing is certain, Xu “BurNIng” Zhilei will take a break from competitive DotA. It is still unclear whether it will be final or temporary.
We only know that for a while we will not be able to see the B-God again in action. That’s the official announcement on their web page.
As for the main team, Yang “End / Zyf” Pu will take on the role of his master BurNIng. For the occasion, he changed his nickname to “GazEoD”, which means Gaze of Death. All the regular players which include Ye “BoBoKa” Zhibiao, Ou “Op” Peng, Lin “Xxs” Jing, and Fu “Q” Bin, will remain in their places. It will be an awkward site for IG without BurNIng at Manila.
The professional team Evil Geniuses announced the return of one of the oldest players in the professional scene of DotA. Clinton “Fear” Loomis, a professional player for more than 10 years, returns to the team after announcing his retirement in September. He stopped competing and took over the technical position in the organization.
Fear was the champion of The International 5 with Evil Geniuses, taking a prize of $ 6.6 million. He has been with the team since 2011. However, before that, he went through several old DotA professional teams such as Meet Your Makers, CompLexity, and Nirvana.Int. He has been competing in the game since 2005. We can’t wait to see Fear at the Manila Masters.
The Manila Masters will also feature some special guests:
So far, the name of another special guest remains a mystery, as well as the format of the tournament.
