Veteran captain Carlo “Kuku” Palad and T1 crushed TNC Predator, 2-0, to prevail in the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) Season 2-Southeast Asia Upper Division top spot tiebreaker on Saturday night, May 22.
12K MMR Thai carry Nuengnara “23savage” Teeramahanon rose to the occasion with his monstrous Wraith King in two games as T1 snagged the No. 1 spot that gives a ticket straight to the playoffs of the WePlay AniMajor slated June 2 to 13 in Kiev, Ukraine.
The 19-year-old 23savage hit a 12-1-3 kill-death-assist record and combined forces with Filipino mid laner Karl “Karl” Jayme’s Leshrac (7-0-12) to power T1’s 24-15 victory in Game 1.

Carlo “Kuku” Palad’s T1 shocked Fnatic with a 2-0 sweep to stretch its searing streak and take the No. 2 spot in the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) Season 2-Southeast Asia Upper Division on Wednesday night, May 12.
T1 simply outdrafted and overwhelmed Fnatic to score an easy 18-5 victory in just 29 minutes in Game 1 behind Filipino midlaner Karl “Karl” Jayme on his Doom.
Karl served as the tanky initiator while also rendering one of the Fnatic cores useless in team fights with the ultimate as the 11K MMR pro finished with a perfect record of five kills and 10 assists.

Karl “Karl” Jayme stepped up with his signature Puck as T1 took down the erstwhile streaking Execration, 2-1, to take the No. 3 spot in the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) Season 2-Southeast Asia Upper Division on Saturday night, May 8.
Karl hit a multiple hero Dream Coil then scored a triple kill to lead a 4-0 exchange in the 25th minute that allowed T1 to pull away from a close game en route to a 35-19 triumph in the 50-minute Game 3.
Moments before Execration called GG, the 11K MMR mid laner typed “introboys”–a gaming slang used to point out that the enemy team is just strong at the start of a game.
