Virtus.pro has openly denied multiple reports that pointed to its current Dota 2 <\/em>team completely disbanding<\/a> in the coming weeks, along with putting a price of $1 million on a contract buyout for one of its inactive players. <\/p>
Earlier this week, the organization mutually agreed to part ways with RAMZES<\/a>, who returned to the team as a stop-gap measure following an internal controversy surrounding Pure back in April. This led to further speculation about VP\u2019s roster heading into a roster shuffle period after The International 2022.\u00a0<\/p>
Xakoda, one of the team\u2019s support players, previously mentioned that he was very confident VP would make multiple moves<\/a> and break up the current roster after they failed to qualify for TI11 on three different occasions\u2014though not all of them were strictly due to poor play. This was backed up by additional reports which noted VP had been dealing with a \u201cdestructive and toxic atmosphere within the team\u201d for a majority of the 2022 DPC season.\u00a0<\/p>
\u201cThe information is not true. There was not a single request for Vitalie “Save-” Melnic during all that time,\u201d VP said to cyber.sports<\/a>. \u201cThe management of Virtus.pro responsibly approaches all incoming requests and sensibly assesses the transfer market.\u201d<\/p>
With additional changes, there is a chance VP management can turn things around to maintain some of its current talent and clean out the toxic elements that were present during the previous season and have made players consider moving on, according to reports<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
