T1 reportedly to sell their DPC slot, disband roster with ana and Topson Rumors
2022-11-10 09:49:00T1 might leave Dota 2 pro scene in the DPC season 2023, which means their roster will be disbanded. According to the report by AFK Gaming, citing their sources, the organization transfers its slot in the SEA DPC league to Bleed Esports.
Based on that, it seems the Singaporean club is not interested in buying the remains of T1's lineup. The active squad is now fielding only Anathan "ana" Pham and Topias "Topson" Taavitsainen, who will most likely move to another region. Other players are looking for a team, although Carlo "Kuku" Palad didn't exclude a possible resignation with T1.
Bleed is a young organization from Singapore which was built in 2021. So far, they have only one team in Valorant. This year, the main Dota 2 event, The International 2022, was held on their home soil. If the rumor is true, Bleed will enter the scene in DPC 2023 Tour 1.
T1 assembled the first Dota 2 squad in 2019. They achieved the most in 2021, winning ESL One Summer, going deep at WePlay Animajor, and finishing 7th-8th at TI10. The following season wasn't as successful: T1 was always a step away from big placements and didn't make it through LCQ for TI11. Even the addition of the star duo of Topson and ana didn't help.
