Evil Geniuses Release Zai After TI7
The most established Dota 2 MOBA game team in North America, Evil Geniuses, released one of its main players to leave its membership. About a year after joining Evil Geniuses, support player Ludwig “zai” Wåhlberg will not continue his membership of the team in the upcoming tournament season. Although the Evil Geniuses members have had tremendous success throughout 2021, being ranked 9-12 in the international tournament The International 7 seems enough to make Zai leave his membership in the North American team. Starting August 31, 2021, Evil Geniuses released Zai after TI7.
“This year has been the most exciting year I’ve had in the world of DotA,” Zai wrote in a statement posted on the Evil Geniuses Facebook page. But for the 20-year-old Swede, the team’s poor performance at TI7, where underdog Empire defeated the team, made it difficult for him to see a future with his Evil Geniuses co-stars. “After reflecting on this year and recent TI, I can no longer see myself continuing in the team, and hope this departure will benefit both parties going forward.”
Zai had previously competed with Evil Geniuses in 2021, where his squad had won multiple tournament wins, and also finished third in The International 4. He spent most of 2021 competing with Team Secret, and chose to take a break from the world of Steam DotA 2 games in the 2021 season in order to complete his studies in Sweden.
In addition to Zai’s disappearance, the Evil Geniuses organization will also experience changes, as CEO Peter “ppd” Dager will step down from the position. The organization’s Dota 2 manager Phillip Aram will instead take on most of the tasks previously handled by ppd. This comes after intense speculation over whether ppd, who won The International 5 along with Evil Geniuses, will return to managing the team in the 2021-2021 tournament season. The list of new members of Evil Geniuses itself will be launched in the coming weeks.
