The Boston Major Qualifiers was filled with a lot of disappointments across all regions particularly in SEA and Europe where the prominent teams got taken out 1-by-1. Now it's to be expected that the next Major will consequently lead to some team reshuffles but one team had already announced its major reshuffle following a disappointment run in the the last Boston Major Qualifiers.
Dota 2 Team TNC Releases Cast and Teehee
TNC officially announced that the organization had released two of their players: the position 1 (hard carry) John Linuel 'Teehee' Abanto and the position 5 (hard support) Mark 'Cast' Pillar. According to their official announcement, the main reason for the released of the two players is due to the fact that they weren't able to create a synergy together with the team and therefore aren't "fit" for the organization.
TNC's subsequent decision was made after the team's disappointing Regional Qualifiers run - having a record of 3-5 which wasn't enough to even qualify for the second phase of the qualifiers. At the end of the organization's announcement, they stressed out that their roster isn't locked yet and that they are still looking for prominent SEA players to fill in the active team.
