Captain of Dota 2 Team Secret Clement "Puppey" Ivanov may go to The International 12 as a new coach of 9 Pandas.
Telecomasia.net has learned that "Puppey" may go to Seattle as the coach of one of the teams participating in the tournament. The name of the team is still unknown, but given that 9 Pandas announced Aleksandr "Nofear" Churochkin quitting his coaching position, it is possible that the 33-year-old Estonian cyber athlete may join the team.
Also, we should not forget that another participant of The International 12 Quest Esports is currently experiencing problems with their coach. Nikita Daxak Kuzmin was unable to get a visa to the United States.
Possible 9 Pandas roster:
- Roman "RAMZES666" Kushnarev;
- Gleb "kiyotaka" Zyryanov;
- Matvey "MieRo`" Vasyunin;
- Vladislav "Antares" Kertman;
- Alexey "Solo" Berezin;
- Clement "Puppey" Ivanov (coach).
Recall that "Puppey" did not make it to The International series tournament as a player for the first time. Clement played at all TIs, starting from the first one, thus putting his name in the history of Dota 2.
