Orange loses roster

At the International Orange.Neolution placed third and was recognized as one of the strongest Dota 2 teams worldwide. Nearly two months later the complete roster is gone. Chai ‘Mushi‘ Yee Fung went to China to play for Team DK and the contracts of the remaining players were running out.

Now the organisation published on its Facebook that Chong ‘Ohaiyo‘ Xin Khoo, Lee ‘kYxY‘ Kong Yang, Wai ‘Net‘ Pern Lim, Joel ‘XtincT‘ Chan Zhan Leong and Chua ‘Ice-‘ Chee Cai are leaving Orange to join another organisation.

Orange Esports DotA 2.0 in the name of Orange Neolution had a great run in 2013. However, TI3 3rd placing and USD287k/5 prize money could not keep Mushi, Xtinct, Net, KyxY and Ohaiyo in the team. After Mushi left for DK, we are sad to announce the departure of Xtinct-Net-KyxY and Ohaiyo for a new sponsor – Team T*. We hope the new sponsor who promised to pay more than double of what we can afford (1 Euro = 4.3 Ringgit Malaysia; 1 SGD = 2.5 Ringgit Malaysia) will support them till TI4. As such, Orange Neolution could not join the WPC-ACE Tournament in China this weekend and have to reform the entire DotA team from scratch. We wish the XtincT-Net-KyxY-Ohaiyo+Ice ex-Orange Esports team the best in their endeavor.

To clear the air, Orange Esports did not make any monetary gain or get any transfer fees from the new sponsors or TI3. Yes, losing the 5-man team will be a net loss for us and our fans but we can accept it with grace.

Orange Esports believes in building and supporting the South East Asian Esports scene since its inception 2 years ago. Our DotA, CSGO and HoN teams are widely recognized as the leading & talented SEA team in their respective disciplines. You can expect us to assemble a new Orange Esports DotA 3.0 team of high caliber soon.

We like to thank our sponsors Neolution, Razer, Asus, BenQ and Kingston for their relentless supports. Last but not least, we continue to seek out supports from you – Orange Esports fans!

Thank you.
