Virtus.pro nuked its previous Dota 2 roster following its failure to qualify for The International 11, but its new lineup was slapped out of orbit less than a month after forming when its new carry player was banned by Valve for account sharing and impersonating members of another team. And now the organization has pillaged another team’s carry to fill the void left by that ban.
Alexandr “krylat” Krylatov is best known for his 2021 run with PuckChamp, which put him on the map as a strong carry player within one of the most aggressive regions in Dota 2. He left PuckChamp in July and only recently signed with Team Empire Hope as the org rebuilt its lineup from scratch.
