TNC’s new roster is now composed of:
- Levi “YoungGod” Lagaret
- Yuri Dave “Yowe” Pacaña
- Lee “Xiaoyu” Qian Yu
- Prieme Ejay “PlayHard” Banquil
- Kim “Febby” Yong-Min
“This season, we will face a big challenge as the SEA Region will be stacked and full of powerhouse teams. For the past years, our team always had high-profile players but this time, we want to move in a different direction by picking up rising talents from the region and team them up with a veteran leader in the form of our new captain, Febby. Looking back, this is a formula that worked for us during 2016 and 2017. We hope that the same formula can bring positive results to our team,” TNC stated in their roster announcement.
“The road may be tough for us this season but we believe that with the right mindset, attitude, and discipline, our team will be able to go toe-to-toe with the best teams in the region and eventually in the global stage,” TNC added.
Being both a former coach and player for TNC, Febby returns to the organization as a team captain after his previous stint as a coach for Team Undying. The Filipinos on the roster, namely YoungGod, Yowe, and PlayHard, come from Reech Apex, Execration, and OB Esports x Neon respectively. Lastly, the Malaysian Xiaoyu was a former Team Mystery player.
Meanwhile, former TNC stars Kim “Gabbi” Villafuerte and Damien “kpii” Chok recently joined Talon Esports as the renowned esports organization finally entered the Southeast Asia Dota Pro Circuit.
