Mzinho tributes Dota 2 star support XinQ at CS2 Shanghai Major 2024 Photo
2024-11-19 15:49:00The MongolZ CS2 player Ayush "Mzinho" Batbold participated in a photo shoot before PW Shanghai Major 2024. In a picture posted on Reddit, he posed before the cameras, holding a sheet with the name XinQ next to his own. This is a reference to Chinese Dota 2 support Zhao "XinQ" Zixing.
According to the explanation on Reddit, local fans started to jokingly compare these two players due to their similarities in appearance. It seems that the Mongolian rifler embraced the meme and decided to play along.
It's unclear where exactly this photo was taken, but it looks like it was made during the process of autograph submissions for Valve, which means XinQ might appear on the in-game signature stickers.
Mzinho is only 17 years old, younger than donk, and he will attend the second Major of his career. His older brother Baatarkhuu "Bart4k" Batbold has been playing for the team from 2021 to 2023 and was part of the IHC core that started the initial breakthrough to the top-tier CS.
The MongolZ previously qualified for the Shanghai Major 2024 through the Asia-Pacific RMR. This is the fifth attendance for the roster veterans, Techno4k and bLitz. The event starts on November 30.
