Darkside — Dota 2 team

The eSports team Darkside is a team from the Eastern European region, created on December 6, 2022, after the The International 2022 tournament.

Creation history and current lineup

As mentioned earlier, the Darkside team was formed after the Dota 2 - The International 2022 tournament. The initial team lineup included SoNNeikO (fifth position support), RodjER (4 support), re1bl (midlaner), DkFogas (offlaner), and RAMZES666 (carry).

The first tournament and a kind of skill test for the newly formed team was the DPC EEU 2023 Tour 1: Division 1, in which they participated thanks to SoNNeikO's preserved slot. The team won several of the first matches, and it can be said that the start was more than successful. However, Darkside finished sixth in the tournament rankings, just one step away from dropping to the second division. The defeat led to a lineup change - first RAMZES666 left, followed by DkFogas.

No[o]ne (carry) and yamich (four) joined the team temporarily. In this lineup, they participated in BetBoom Universe: Episode I – Comics Zone, but the team did not even make it to the playoffs.

Finally, dizzying and Blizzy joined the team. Since then, the lineup has not changed and continues to exist to this day.

The current lineup of the team on June 6, 2023 is as follows:

SoNNeikO (Akbar Butaev) - captain, fifth position support;

• Blizzy (Evgeniy Ri) - offlaner;

• re1bl (Maxim Afanasiev) - midlaner;

• dizzying (Roman Kostevich) - carry;

• RodjER (Vladimir Nikogosyan) - fourth position support.
