European Dota 2 Talents Gather as Team MeePwn’D
Even as the Dota 2 Asia Championship Qualifiers are raging in all its wrath and glory, the Great Western Reshuffle never seems to lose steam as some of Europe’s finest Dota 2 players who have been deemed teamless by the endless player swaps between top teams such as Cloud 9 and Evil Geniuses (EG) have decided to gather under one roof.
Team MeePwn’D features players such as Aliwi “w33haa” Omar, the breakout player who carried the Romanian national team using the infamous Meepo to victory against Newbee in the group stages of last year’s International eSports Federation (IeSF) 6th World Championships and Steve “Excalibur” Ye, another renowned Meepo and Tinker player who showed his skills during the last edition of the The Summit. Three EU staples in the form of Tal “Simbaaa” Aizik, Kai “H4nn1” Hanbueckers and Johan “pieliedie” Åström round out the team.
They will have their first match under the new roster during the Dota 2 Pit Season 3 qualifiers starting Jan. 20, 2015, against other teams such as Ninjas In Pyjamas, Power Rangers and 4 Anchors, among others.
It is interesting to see whether this talented lineup will be able to stand against what the best that Europe can offer in the build-up to this year’s The International.
