The Chinese PUBG team Four Angry Men better known as just 4AM is now officially entering the Dota 2 scene with a superstar roster!

We’ve only heard rumors in the past month but here we are, 4AM have announced they’ll be joining the Dota 2 competitive scene. What’s so exciting about it? The team’s line up of course!

Well, most of it. According to the leak, the last two members of 4AM were supposed to come from Team Aster. Four Angry Men made their announcement, and we can clearly see the full roster and it’s all familiar faces from the past few weeks.

Here’s the full stack:

  • Zhang "Eurus" Chengjun
  • Lu "Somnus丶M" Yao
  • Zhou "Yang" Haiyan
  • Xu "fy" Linsen
  • Ru "RedPanda" Zhihao
  • Bai "rOtK" Fan (coach)

Somnus and fy left PSG.LGD. Yang, rOtK and Eurus left Vici Gaming and made it all possible. The final piece of the puzzle is RedPanda who last played for Sparking Arrow Gaming.

This new roster gathers some of the best players in China in a single team. Will they find the success everyone expects them to?

PSG.LGD

After losing two players it was only natural that PSG.LGD will be looking for fresh blood to fill the missing slots. Not a whole lot was left after Somnus and fy decided to leave the team. Ren "eLeVeN" Yangwei was loaned to Vici Gaming, while Yang "Chalice"' Shenyi and Jian Wei "xNova" Yap moved to EHOME. This left LGD with literally 0 players and they signed an entirely new roster.

The new PSG.LGD Dota 2 roster is as follows:

  • Wang "Ame" Chunyu
  • Cheng "NothingToSay" Jin Xiang
  • Zhang "Faith_bian" Ruida
  • Zhao "XinQ" Zixing
  • Zhang "y`" Yiping

Invictus Gaming

IG also announced their two new rosters for the 2020-2021 competitive season.

For the main squad that’s:

  • Jin "flyfly" Zhiyi
  • Zhou "Emo" Yi
  • Thiay "JT-" Jun Wen
  • Hu "kaka" Liangzhi
  • Chan "Oli~" Chon Kien

For iG Vitality it’s the following:

  • Lin "doodle"' Zikai
  • Ni "ButterflyEffect" Weijie
  • Li “Irving” Jian
  • Zhou “Dust” Shiyuan
  • Cui “QYQX” Chenyang

EHOME

Since Chalice and Xnova moved to EHOME the Chinese organization also formed a new team:

  • Song "Sccc" Chun
  • Guo "Xm" Hongcheng
  • Yang "Chalice"' Shenyi
  • Zhou "Yif" Yifu
  • Jian Wei "xNova" Yap

That’s about it for the Chinese Dota 2 mega-shuffle.
