Yuno and Xuan joins Invictus Gaming

Yuno and Xuan will be replacing two members of Invictus Gaming in the upcoming Marstv DotA 2 League.

Six hours ago, Invictus Gaming’s manager Mintyblue posted in his Weibo that two new players will be debuting in the Marstv DotA 2 League for iG.

Translation of the Weibo:

Fantuan.Paparazi is a very young player. But since his Warcraft III Dota days he had already achieved some fame within the community due to his incredible mechanical skills. After he started his Dota 2 career, he has played for Immortal Magneto Gaming, and Team Fantuan. In both of these teams his performance in the Carry or Solo Mid position has been outstanding. Paparazi is also an avid ranked player. Last night he became the first person to reach 8000 matchmaking rating in the Perfect World server. Paparazi has officially joined the iG Dota 2 team and his player name is IG.Yuno, and he will debut in MDL for iG.

Another player that will debut in MDL for iG will be Xuan. Recently, Xuan began practicing with iG as the Winter Major substitute. Xuan is also a very young player, who has had experience in Carry, Solo Mid, and Offlane positions. He will also play in MDL for iG and his player name will be iG.Xuan.

Although IG did not reveal which players will be replaced, the fact that neither Luo "Ferrari_430" Feichi or Luo "Luo" Yinqi played for the team in recently ended series might indicate who will be replaced.

After their series against Tongfu, Mintyblue posted another Weibo saying:

We lost to Tongfu in the MDL and fell into the lower bracket. Ferrari_430 and Luo have not left the team yet. Yuno and Xuan’s debut in the MDL is the result of everyone in the team, the official roster of iG will be announced after more adjustments.”

Recently iG’s performance has been extremely lackluster. Hopefully their new addition to their roster can help them bounce back. The Marstv Dota 2 League Lan Finals will begin on January 26th with ten teams competing for the prize pool of $250,000.
