Gorgc revives Dota 2 meme team to compete for Riyadh—but it’s already gone wrong

Popular Dota 2 streamer Gorgc revived Team Bald to compete in the Riyadh Masters MENA open qualifiers. The dream didn’t last long, though, with the squad getting knocked out in their first match.

This Team Bald iteration was formed unceremoniously on May 29 to give the Riyadh Masters MENA open qualifiers a shot. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is widely considered to be the weakest Dota 2 region. Now, call it bad luck, but Team Bald were seeded to face perhaps the strongest team in this qualifier: Night Pulse. Headed by former NAVI player V-Tune, Night Pulse beat Team Bald in the best-of-one and later secured one of the two slots for the MENA closed qualifiers. (Maybe that merits dubbing Team Bald as the de-facto runner-up of the entire thing.)
