According to our insiders, EHOME's loan request for DK's solo mid player Tian Yu 'Cty' Chen has been approved and Cty is set to temporarily replace EHOME's current solo mid Yong Zheng 'Inflame' He.
However, the Association for Chinese Esports (ACE) has only allowed Cty to play in MarsTV Dota 2 League with EHOME although there are already signs of Cty playing with the team. In EHOME's recent games, there were no signs of Inflame and his place in the team has been taken over by a player named BoA. We have received no news on whether BoA is Cty but the mysterious man plays the solo mid role, a role Cty is known for excelling in.
The switch happened from Inflame to BoA happened after April 20 when EHOME suffered a devastating loss to NewBee in the Chinese qualifier of ESL One Frankfurt.
At this point, it is unknown if EHOME will gun for The International 5 with Cty in the team or how the loan would have affected their chances to be invited to The International 5, or even the qualifiers. It is also unknown if Inflame has been removed from the team following the loan.
More information on the invitations for The International 5 will be released in early May.
EHOME temporary roster:
Fan 'rOtk' Bai
Tian Yu 'Cty' Chen
Fat-Leong 'ddc' Meng
Zhi Cheng 'LaNm' Zhang
Yang 'Zyf' Pu
