In a surprising turn of events, EHOME.my has been dropped by the EHOME organization less than a month after its formation. From now on, the team will be know as MY.
Less than a month after their formation EHOME.my has hit their first major roadblock after an amazing debut which saw them take down four top SEA teams 2-0. The reason given for this move by EHOME is that both player and organization could not come to terms on some of the conditions asked resulting in them feeling that no progress could be made on the negotiations, triggering this decision.
According to a source close to the team, MY will still stay together with or without a sponsor and will try to make it to TI5. This means that this event will not impact their participation in the multiple tournaments they are part of like Starladder 12, ESL One Frankfurt and i-League #3. On a side note, the source has also said that the team is now actively looking for sponsors and will be willing to consider every offer.
This move is the third roster change by EHOME after it was brought back with the first being in December last year when EHOME formed a team by combining both Chai 'Mushi' Yee Fung and Khoo 'Ohaiyo' Chong Xin with upcoming Chinese Dota2 players. The second change came during the post-DAC period where the EHOME squad was split into EHOME.my and EHOME.cn.
The move of dropping their Malaysian squad comes as a huge surprise because one of the main players in the EHOME brand project, coach 71, has previously hinted at wanting to pick up a Malaysian squad saying in an interview that he 'have started to pay attention to them (Invasion) last year[...] think they are worth a try (picking them up)'.
