"I think it is essential that veteran players work with new players and help them develop. After all, during all these many years we have learned so many things," said N0tail. 

He added that they wanted to make sure that the new players in the future would have their own game styles, preventing them from becoming a carbon copy of Ceb and the remaining players of the team. 

Sundstein also said that he needs to share the knowledge he acquired during his prime so that the new players would reach their full potentials faster.  

N0tail Would Still Have His Year Off

Before N0tail continued his new journey as OG's mentor, he said that he would take a break from "Dota 2," for at least a year. 

However, you can still see his gaming activities since Johan said he would be streaming and creating content. However, he didn't confirm if it would all focus on "Dota 2." 

In other news, TechTimes reported that "Dota 2" TI10's new champion is Team Spirit, which is still quite astounding. On the other hand, Ceb also recently released a medical update of his eye condition, which could be one of the reasons for his retirement.
