Team Spirit and BetBoom Team: Plans for Second Rosters and Potential Transfers
Rumours about major Dota 2 organisations creating second rosters have sparked discussions within the community. Commentator Vladimir Maelstorm Kuzminov has suggested that Team Spirit might announce a new lineup as early as 2025.
Team Spirit: What Do We Know About the Second Roster?
According to Maelstorm, the organisation is already working on assembling a second roster:
"Word is that Spirit will have a new roster after the New Year. How it will be organised remains unclear, as officially, having two rosters is not allowed. But if a team is built to win and not for other reasons, then why not? It seems logical to me."
Team Spirit has not officially confirmed this information. Previously, the team's manager Dmitry Korb3n Belov, during a stream, discussed a hypothetical lineup featuring Ilya "Raddan" Mulyarchuk and Myroslav "Mira" Kolpakov, though he noted that such a move does not seem feasible at the moment.
BetBoom Team: Insider Details on gpK~ and dyrachyo’s Lineup
Alongside news about Team Spirit, rumours have surfaced regarding BetBoom Team’s plans for a second roster. Insider Pancho Justo shared a potential lineup on X (formerly Twitter), including Danil "gpK~" Skutin and Anton "dyrachyo" Shkredov.
The roster might also feature:
- Alexander "TORONTOTOKYO" Khertek – expected to switch to the offlane role, departing from his experience as a midlaner and position five support;
- Vladimir "RodjER" Nikogosyan – likely to play position four;
- Position five support could be filled by either Dmitry "Fishman" Polishchuk or Andrey "Dukalis" Kuropatkin, who is currently playing for PARIVISION.
What Links These Rumours?
Maelstorm previously hinted at BetBoom Team assembling a new roster featuring gpK~, dyrachyo, and TORONTOTOKYO, though he did not specify the roles. This aligns with Pancho Justo's insider report, heightening anticipation for potential announcements from both organisations.
The rumours about second rosters for Team Spirit and BetBoom Team highlight the growing competitiveness in the professional Dota 2 scene. If these speculations are confirmed, fans can expect intriguing transfer moves that could reshape the dynamics of the upcoming season.
