And our last but not the least interview will be with  Team Empire's toplane player —  Márió «mumus100» Szépvölgyi. He will tell us the story behind his nickname, what LCL misses and why Hard Random is not the best contender at International Wild Card Invitational.

Today we are sad to say goodbye to Alexander «XBOCT» Dashkevich. Alexander joined our team in the late November, almost after his departure from Natus Vincere. At that time Team Empire were performing badly and were seeking for a strong player to play in Game Show Global eSports Cup.

XBOCT accepted teams offer and played for Team Empire as a standin in Vilnus. The team outdid themselves and performed well, and afterwards won the entire thing in LAN Finals which were held in Moscow. All that time XBOCT was playing amazingly, just as we all knew him to.

We are glad to announce that our organization is setting to the new horizons with the acquisition of a new Counter-Strike: Global Offensive squad.

We already had successful experience with teams playing FPS before with our Call of Duty, Warface and Battlefront squads. But it is the first time when we took a look to Counter-Strike, one of the biggest game in the scene right now.

New Year it’s a time for shift and unexpected surprises and one of them we are pleased to announce right now! Team Empire strikes back come back to League of Legends! After a long break Team Empire presents new roster at the discipline League of Legends.This solution is is primarily associated with great prospects of the discipline in the CIS region. 

LoL is not a new game for our organization. It was from Team Empire began the story of the "golden" roster of Gambit Gaming. Then we had a squad which has performed on Starladder and we gained valuable experience in working with the CIS player of this discipline.

A little less than a day left before the end of transfer period at Dota2 pro scene, allotted by Valve for teams to perform any shift in their squads. After the 8th of December all changes will be severely punished: the team with such changes will be deprived both direct invites to the next Major and invitational to the regional qualifying.

We remind that last season we didn't complete our squad in time and were forced to play many games in open qualifications. It's not a secret  that since The International 2015 we had a big problems with our roster. We tested many players and had to go to LAN-finals GameShow Global Cup # 1 with two forced substitutions.

The roster, that went to Vilnius and Moscow was only one of the variants for future Team Empire. We have continued to test the players and watched the newcomers.

From today we are happy to announce a partnership with media company Azubu, which is primarily known for its streaming platform. Collaboration: ru: Team Empire and  Azubu will give to the players opportunity of interactive communication with their fans and fans will provide an opportunity to watch the games of their idols in real time and in excellent quality!

Despite the fact that up to September 5 Team Empire has announced a squad for the autumn Major tournament, during the month it became clear that the team will not be able to perform at the tournament in the absence of mutual understanding, and the roster will change once again.

Thus, we lose the opportunity to be invited for the Major-tournament itself and the regional qualification. So, Team Empire will play at the open qualifications.

In the best traditions of football transfers, in the closing day of this period we are opening all cards and want to announce the full Dota 2 roster of Team Empire.

The fact that we have delayed the announcement is a compulsory measure, we had a problem that we tried to solve and we want to tell you all the details.

The period after TI is so interesting for Dota-fans because of the upcoming reshuffle. For a long time there was no information about changes in our roster and now it is time to reveal the updated Dota 2 roster of Team Empire.

We took a break after TI5, to rest and to think carefully about the future. The pause was necessary, for team and management. Now we are ready to announce first changes.
