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.
