Bannering its revamped all-Filipino roster, TNC Predator will have its mettle tested against Neon Esports and eight other teams in the 2020/2021 Asia Pacific Predator League Grand Final slated on April 6-11.
Former Smart Omega captain-support Marvin “Boomy” Rushton and offlaner Jun “Bok” Kanehara will debut with a TNC jersey in the final stage of the APAC Predator League which was postponed last year due to COVID-19.
With mainstays carry Kim “Gabbi” Santos, mid laner Armel “Armel” Tabios and position-4 support Timothy “Tims” Randrup, TNC will take on the Singapore Major-bound Neon and fellow Dota Pro Circuit-Southeast Asia Upper Division teams Boom Esports and 496 Gaming.
TNC Predator is back with an all-Filipino roster.
The Filipino powerhouse team revealed its acquisition of former Smart Omega players Marvin “Boomy” Rushton (also known as Boombacs) and Jun “Bok” Kanehara (Bokerino) on Friday night, March 5.
“We want to welcome Marvin “Boomy” Rushton and Jun “Bok” Kanehara as our new Position 5 and Position 3 players, respectively. We are excited what Boomy and Bok (have) to share with our team in terms of game strategy and playstyle,” the team said in a statement posted on its official social media pages.
TNC made its move almost a day after ex-captain and hard support Kim “Febby” Yong Min said on his latest Youtube video that the organization would go for an all-Filipino lineup again.
