The International 10 champions won’t be at full strength at the Gamers Galaxy Dota 2 Invitational Series Dubai 2022 tournament.
Team Spirit’s position four, Miroslaw “Mira” Kolpakov, is currently in Ukraine, the organization announced today. The 22-year-old “won’t be able to participate in the tournament”, and as a result, the team will get a stand-in to replace him.
“He’s safe and he’s getting all necessary support,” the Russia-based org wrote.
Vladimir “RodjER” Nikogosian, currently playing for CIS Rejects, will be the substitute for the tournament.
