European esports club Tundra Esports has signed long-term contracts with all players. According to the contract, players will remain on the Tundra Esports team until at least 2024.
This is an unconventional precedent in the face of frequent reshuffles in the professional Dota 2 scene. The Tundra Esports roster remains unchanged.
We’ve seen the potential these players showed and immediately recognized the talent they have. Their rise to success and the ability to bounce back from setbacks make us believe they are a winning combination. The players’ drive to succeed directly corresponds with Tundra’s strive to become the best esports organization out there, so it felt only natural to continue working with them.
Anthony Graham, Tundra Esports Co-Founder & Manager commented for Tundra’s official website
Tundra Esports roster
- Oliver “skiter” Lepko
- Leon “Nine” Kirilin
- Neta “33” Shapira
- Jingjun “Sneyking” Wu
- Adrian “Fata” Trinks
The team does not have a coach yet, but one may appear soon. The market is full of free agents willing to take that position on such a team. Interestingly, 33 was one of the most coveted offlaners for a transfer to another team. Apparently, Tundra was able to keep Neta by offering good terms in his contract.
Tundra showed good play last DPC season. Although they did not qualify for The International 10, they played well at ESL One Fall 2021 and became champions. They also finished third at the OGA Dota Pit Invitational. I think these results prompted Tundra’s senior management to sign such long-term contracts.
