T1's Dota 2 roster has reportedly disbanded due to a lack of active players.

T1 is a South Korean esports team operated by T1 Entertainment & Sports, a joint venture between SK Telecom and Comcast Spectacor. Its esports rosters include teams for Dota 2, League of Legends, Valorant, Overwatch, Wild Rift, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

In a recent tweet from T1's official Twitter, the esports organization announced the disbandment of its latest Dota 2 roster, which had been active from 2019 to 2022. T1 expressed their gratitude to fans for their support throughout their esports journey.

Behind T1's Dota 2 Esports Roster

T1's Dota 2 roster has been hailed as one of the standout teams of the Southeast Asian region in previous esports seasons, including the 2021 Dota Pro Circuit, according to a past One Esports report.

Additionally, the team earned a spot at The International 10 in Regional Leagues and broke history as the only team from the Southeast Asian region to qualify by earning enough DPC Points.

However, despite making a name in the esports industry, T1 had reportedly gone through an unsuccessful season this year as the team was unable to qualify for The International 2022, with Tundra Esports taking the crown for this year, according to AFK Gaming.

T1's Dota 2 roster during the Last Chance Qualifiers includes players:

• Anathan "ana" Pham
• Topias "Topson" Taavitsainen
• Carlo "Kuku" Palad
• Kenny "Xepher" Deo
• Matthew "Whitemon" Filemon

According to One Esports, all of T1's Dota 2 players will now be free agents following the team's disbandment during the roster shuffle period. The disbandment of T1's roster is the latest of many major team shifts in the international Dota 2 scene's ongoing roster shuffle.

As of now, no official details have been revealed on these players' next career move. However, Topson has been vocal about returning to Europe to continue his playing career.

Mass Departure in T1 Esports Organization?

Prior to T1's announcement of the disbandment of its Dota 2 roster, the team's former coach, Park "March" Tae-won, had also parted ways with the team just recently.

The Southeast Asian squad has greatly benefited from the knowledge of their former head coach in their former successful seasons. Now, without any players or a coach to fill in for T1's Dota 2 team, fans are left wondering what the fate of their Dota 2 esports career will hold, if there will be one.

Additionally, One Esports reports that due to the announcement stating a timeline of "2019 - 2022" in their publication material, the possibility of the organization pulling out entirely of Dota 2 esports may be implied.

As of now, T1 has not made any comments on the future of its Dota 2 division.
