While none of the players actively searched for a new club following the benching, the team&#8217;s former captain, BLACKARXANGEL, joined Khan on loan at the start of June.<\/p>\n<p>EXTREMUM remained quiet about their plans for the future until Sunday, when they unveiled their new Dota2 roster.

They have achieved a handful of solid Tier 3 results in their short history, including a gold medal at the Kyivstar Autumn Cup, silver at SECTOR: MOSTBET DOTA 2 Season 1, a top-three finish at Epic Challenger League Season 1 and the aforementioned second placing at the SIGUL Pro League.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen how the freshened-up roster will perform, but there is no denying EXTREMUM have built a much more competitive team this time out with velheor, G and AfterLife as three veterans in the scene.
