After a five-month hiatus, TNC Predator is making a comeback to the Dota 2 scene with a revamped roster featuring the renowned Carlo "Kuku" Palad. The team's return follows what CEO and founder Eric Redulfin described as “the worst season for the organization.” Despite the challenges, Redulfin assured fans that TNC would return "in the near future," and he has stayed true to his word.
New Roster and Roles
In this new iteration of TNC Predator, Carlo "Kuku" Palad will be taking on the Position 5 role. Kuku, a celebrated Filipino player, last played for Blacklist International before being moved to an inactive status in March. Joining him are:
- Jinn Marrey “Palos” Lamatao;
- Yuri Dave “Yowe” Pacaña;
- Joshua “Kokz” Marano;
- John “Jing” Duyan.
Upcoming Competitions
The qualifiers for the Riyadh Masters began on May 29th. It's yet to be determined whether TNC Predator will have to compete in these qualifiers or if they will receive a direct invite to the closed qualifiers starting on May 31st. Fans are hopeful that the new roster will also participate in the Elite League Season 2 qualifiers, although no official announcement has been made regarding their next competition.
