TNC Predator has just shaken up the Dota 2 scene, especially here in Southeast Asia. The all Filipino squad announced that on September 15, their entire Dota 2 team will officially be free agents.
The team was unable to attend this year’s The International after they finished second in The International 10: Southeast Asia Qualifier after a close 2-3 loss against Fnatic.
