The retirement of “Kimo” and his possible replacement
It has been officially confirmed that, one of the most animated captains in the Filipino DOTA 2 scene, Kimuel “Kimo” Rodis, is going to retire from the competitive scene to focus more on his family and kids.
Although his team (MSI-EvoGT.TnC) is currently on a dominating streak since their formation over two months ago, this change will undoubtedly set them back as speculation mounts with regard to a possible replacement for Kimo.
Rumours suggest that with the captain’s departure, a fellow team member will also leave the team to seek other opportunities with another Filipino team. With that said, it is safe to say that only 3 of its 5 original members will stay and continue MSI-evoGT.TnC’s quest for international dominance. The next question now is – who will fill up these vacant slots left by the departing members?
Rapture Gaming Network was able to get an inside scoop on players that the team is currently looking to recruit. Our sources point towards a player who is renowned for being a ‘consistent mid-laner’ who has played with almost all of the remaining members of MSI-EvoGT.TnC in previous teams. As such, building team chemistry between the players will not be an issue. Lastly, this rumoured replacement is also one of the most experienced players in the Philippines, having played in multiple local and international events.
We also received information with regard to the second replacement, though it is still uncertain whether that player will consider joining MSI-EvoGT.TnC. (Hint: this ‘consistent and foxy player’ initially gained recognition for securing an international tournament trophy for his team.)
