The six new players were announced on Twitter late last night. \u201cPlease give your warmest welcome to the following for joining the Shanghai Dragons,\u201d the team wrote before listing the new names. From KongDoo Panthera, DPS player Jin \u201cYoungjin\u201d Yong-jin, flex DPS Yang \u201cDDing\u201d Jin-hyeok, and supports Son \u201cCoMa\u201d Kyeong-Woo, Yang \u201cLuffy\u201d Seong-hyeon have been added to the roster. Former Toronto Esports and Lunatic-Hai player Cho \u201cGuardiaN\u201d Joon-hwan and former Lucky Future Zenith dps Bae \u201cdiem\u201d Min-seong were also announced this morning. Related: Shanghai Dragons cuts the majority of its Overwatch League team They\u2019ll join Lu \u201cDiya\u201d Weida, Kim \u201cGeguri\u201d Se-yeon, and Lee \u201cFearless\u201d Eui-seok as the Shanghai Dragons. The new additions bring the squad past the minimum eight players required to be signed by Dec. 1. Three spots remain, but the organization is not required to fill them. The Shanghai organization underwent a massive overhaul after finishing the Overwatch League\u2019s first season without a single win. In September, the organization cut eight out of its 11 inaugural season players, leaving only Diya, Geguri, and Fearless. It wasn\u2019t a surprising decision. The Overwatch League roster clearly struggled to keep up in the first season, with communication problems making the team\u2019s viability even worse. Shanghai\u2019s new roster will debut on or shortly after the season two kick-off on Feb. 14. The Overwatch League has swelled from 12 teams to 20 for the 2019 season, and with a strong selection of players from the South Korea scene (and Diya) the roster should have an easier time nabbing a win next year.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/23130928\/Shanghai_Dragons_entrance_6-1-18.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57323"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/909"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57323"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57323\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57323"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57323"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57323"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=57323"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=57323"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=57323"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=57323"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
