This dynamic duo is now set to assemble a superstar roster to compete at the 19th Asian Games (Hangzhou 2022) and represent China. Somnus and Ame are accompanied by familiar names like Yang \u201cChalice\u201d Shenyi, Zhao \u201cXinQ\u201d Zixing, Yu \u201c\u76ae\u7403\u201d Yajuni, and Xiong \u201cPyw\u201d Jiahan. The roster will be coached by non-other than Zhang \u201cLaNm\u201d Zhicheng, and this stacked roster will face off against other local squads from other SEA and MENA countries. Ever since retiring in late 2022, both Ama and Somnus have shown an undeniable passion for\u00a0Dota 2, and Somnus even teased a possible comeback months before officially coming out of retirement. Related:\u00a0Somnus is reconsidering his\u00a0Dota 2\u00a0retirement after Messi\u2019s fairytale run at 2022 World Cup Somnus has, however, been one step ahead of Ame in the comeback department as the legendary mid-laner and his\u00a0Dota 2\u00a0team\u00a0are heading to the Bali Major. Though Somnus was hesitant to join a top team upon his arrival due to being rusty, his summer DPC performance was a testament that he\u2019s still got what it takes to fight in the big leagues. Now the best of\u00a0Dota 2\u00a0friends\u00a0are back for one more ride, which can pave the way for them to push accomplishments they could never collect during their time together. Decent runs at the Bali Major and the 19th Asian Games could motivate the duo to switch gears for The International 2023 later this year.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ame-dota-2.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/897857"}],"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\/1802"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=897857"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/897857\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":897894,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/897857\/revisions\/897894"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/897864"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=897857"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=897857"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=897857"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=897857"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=897857"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=897857"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=897857"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
