In what could be one of the biggest transfers in Philippine Dota 2 history, TNC Pro Team has just confirmed that they will get the services of Jimmy “DeMoN” Ho for the upcoming International 6 Open Qualifiers.
DeMoN will replace John Linuel “Teehee” Abanto, the team’s former mid player. As a result of this change, Carlo “Kuku” Palad will go back to his former role as a midlaner, while DeMoN will do the support role together with team captain Nico “Eyyou” Barcelon.
Paulo Sy, TNC Pro Team’s overall manager, has the following to say regarding the roster change:
“This roster change happened due to sudden differences in our goals and objectives in the team. As much as we want to keep Teehee in our roster, we believe that it’s not the best decision at least for this qualifier since his vision is not the same with the team’s vision anymore. He is a very talented player but we want our team to be in the same page especially for this tournament.”
TNC Pro Team has recently finished second place at the Southeast Asian Qualifiers of the Manila Dota 2 Major, only behind eventual Philippine and SEA representatives Mineski.
