CMD368 – After the confirmation of old eLeVeN’s return to Vici Gaming came through a short time ago, the organisation have now announced their full new roster – with a noticeable player missing from the team. Vici Gaming has confirmed that Zhang “Eurus” Chengjun is no longer on the roster.
Announced via the team’s Weibo account, VG’s new roster includes the ex-Fnatic and currently Among Us player, Nuengnara “23savage” Teeramahanon, as well as someone who will play as a stand-in for the upcoming China Dota2 Pro Cup.

23Savage is a talented young man, reaching the top of the ladder at 14 years of age. He is also the 20th player in the world to reach 10,000 MMR and in July he reached 11,000. During the online competitions, he also won 5 consecutive division titles.However, due to the ongoing epidemic, 23Savage’s visa is still being processed. VICI Gaming strictly abides by the epidemic prevention regulations and cooperates with him to complete the relevant entry procedures.
