XBOCT leaves Team Empire

Long before the start of transfer period, Team Empire decided to announce a change in their Dota2 squad: Alexander "XBOCT" Dashkevich, former Natus Vincere player, left the team. He joined the forces of Empire in December of 2015 when the team played on LAN finals of Game Show Global eSports Cup Season 1.

Since then Team Empire managed to achieve good results on some tournaments, although there were some serious failures: first of all is that Team Empire did not qualify for The Shanghai Major. "The team gave unstable results. After several losses we decided to make some changes within the squad" - says the official announcement.

Comment from Team Empire's Dota 2 team manager, Dmitry "Korb3n" Belov:

"I want to thank Alexander for his enormous contribution in our recent victories, good sense of humor and stress resistance. I wish him only the best in his future, it was quite a ride with the legend which is XBOCT".

We would remind you that Roman "Resolut1ion" Fominok also left the team a few weeks ago.
