Omega adds Korean offlaner Forev, two other foreign stars


Omega Esports unveiled its official Dota 2 roster that will be competing in the upcoming Dota Pro Circuit Southeast Asia 2021-22 Tour 1: Division 1 on Saturday evening.

Headlining the cast is Korean offlaner Lee “Forev” Sang-don who led MVP Phoenix to a top-six finish at The International 2016.

Indonesian midlaner Ramzi “Ramz” Bayhaki and Malaysian support Liew “Eren” Jun Jie were also part of the signing spree.

The three new additions will join holdovers Prince “Prinz” Daculan and Ryniel Keit “Zenki” Calvez in the SMART-backed squad.

Back in the previous season, Omega Esports acquired the former Adroit roster which consists of Justin “Tino” Grimaldo, Mc Nicholson “Mac” Villanueva, Marvin “Boomy” Rushton, Bryle “cml” Alvizo, and later signed Jun “Bok” Kanehara.

The team placed second in the opening season of the Lower Division, earning an Upper Division berth for Season Two.

However, two of its key players in Boomy and Bok were bought out by TNC which forced the squad to pick up late reinforcements in Sam “Sam_H” Hidalgo and Mark “Shanks” Redira.

Omega Esports eventually ended Season Two with a sixth-place finish before ending the season with a 9-12th result in The International 10 Southeast Asia regional qualifiers.
