The Peruvian team Balrogs Esports bids farewell to the Dota Pro Circuit First Division
The Peruvian team Balrogs Esports bid farewell today to the First Division of the Dota Pro Circuit after losing to Hokori 2-0. Although they did their best, the team couldn't prevail against their opponents and were widely overcome throughout the series.
First Game
In the first game, 4nalog (Hokori's midlaner) was a real headache for the Balrogs members, as he took advantage of all their mistakes to inflict damage in team fights. In addition, players like Thiolicor and Vitaly were vital for their team's victory, which closed the game after 40 minutes.
Second Game
Later, the second game would have the German-Nicaraguan hard carry Yuma as its protagonist, who scored 11 kills and 8 assists with his Chaos Knight. Seeing themselves completely surrounded and with no possibilities of a comeback, Balrogs decided to launch the corresponding "GGWP," ending the match.
It is worth mentioning that Balrogs had LittleBoy as a stand-in in the position 3, replacing Kingteka, who only managed to play three series with his new team before being disregarded.
Although there was great expectation for the arrival of the former player of Infamous and Incubus, Kingteka failed to show his best level with Balrogs. In fact, the player ended up being sanctioned by the team for ranting against 4D Esports, the organizers of the Dota Pro Circuit SA, and would be replaced by various stand-ins such as ArzenT, Tavo, and LittleBoy.
Despite still having a match to play, Balrogs is already saying goodbye to a discreet season in the First Division. Therefore, the team will have to do their best to return to the First Division in the DPC Tour 3, although they have not yet announced whether they will continue to count on Kingteka or if there will be other changes in the roster.
On the other hand, Hokori still has a chance to qualify for the upcoming Dota 2 Major, but it depends on the results of Thunder Awaken, Lava BestPc, and Beastcoast.
