A lot of big news came last few days, let see what we got for this week update.
zai leaving Team Secret after 3 years
Surpringly, Team Secret and zai announced their part-way after 3 years together. It's a shocking news, since zai was always the one who being most consistent through out the years despite the team up and down.
Thank you, Zai 🖤

What position he will play at Team Liquid is still not revealed, although rumor saying zai will be pos 4 while Taiga will make his big jump to OG later on. Very interesting combo for both team, let wait to see how they perform during the new DPC season.
Khezu to be captain for his new team
Another HoN veteran - Khezu returned to competitive play after working as a coach for a while. Despite Lelis saying Quincy Crew gonna disband after TI10, Quinn and YS decided to keep the team with new line-up.
There's a new-look Quincy Crew coming for the #NADPC. We are proud to announce our roster for the 2021/2022 season:

Milan and Ponlo are the final 2 members of the team, Khezu will be their captain while playing on pos3. It's an odd choice for captain position, as we know during professional dota history, only Fly (aka Simba) is the captain of a tier 1 team while playing on pos 3. Although Team Secret 1.0 which Fly being the captain on pos 3 actually consist of 5 team leaders: Kuroky - s4 - Fly/Simba - Notail - Puppey.
Kingrd return to competitive play
After some inactive time, Kingrd has comeback with his new team

Not just Kingrd will be in this new roster, hFn and tavo - his teammate from Pain Gaming 2018 who impressed the scene at ESL Birmingham will comeback. Despite not the best team in SA scene, this lineup still quite strong one, with potential of causing a lot upset during the season.
