After moving Anton “dyrachyo” Shkredov to inactive status, Gaimin Gladiators announce Alimzhan “Watson” Islambekov as his replacement.
On the heels of Gaimin Gladiators' announcement to move Anton “dyrachyo” Shkredov to inactive status, the organization welcomes Alimzhan “Watson” Islambekov to fill his shoes.
Cloud9 returned to the Dota 2 scene in July of this year by picking up the roster of Entity, which have already qualified for The International 2024. Watson was a part of both rosters for the last two years. The Kazakhstani player has been playing Dota 2 since 2013 but made a bigger splash in his professional career a few years later, when he was picked up by Danil "Dendi" Ishutin's organization B8 in 2021.
Fans can check out the adjusted roster in action soon. The team is expected to compete in BetBoom Datcha Belgrade 2024 which begins in two weeks on October 19.
Gaimin Gladiators current roster:
Alimzhan “Watson” Islambekov
Quinn “Quinn” Callahan
Marcus “Ace” Hoelgaard
Erik “tOfu” Engel
Melchior “Seleri” Hillenkamp
