Mongolian players Garidmagnai “bLitz” Byambasuren, Sodbayar “Techno” Munkhbold, Baatarkhuu “Bart4k” Batbold, Tuvshintugs “Annihilation” Nyamdorj, and Chinguun “hasteka” Bayarmaa have revived the tag “The Mongolz” ahead of the BLAST Paris Major Asia RMR and will no longer play under IHC in the tournament, according to the event organizer MESA.
As of this point, it’s unclear if this means that bLitz and his men have effectively parted ways with IHC ahead of the BLAST Paris Major Asia RMR as the organization has been radio silent on Twitter since March 24. The Mongolians peaked at 18th in the world in February, according to HLTV’s ranking, following their participation in IEM Katowice, when they eliminated paiN Gaming, FURIA, and most notably Cloud9 from the tournament. Dot Esports has reached out to IHC but didn’t receive a response at time of writing.
