Tundra Esports on Thursday announced the departure of Edgar “9Class” Naltakian, who leaves the European Dota 2<\/a> squad after nine months.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old joined Tundra in January as a part of a major roster rebuild which began with the departure of Enzo “Timado” Gianoli, Jonathan Bryle “Bryle” De Guia, Ilyas “kasane” Gainullin, and also coach Aleksandr “Immersion” Khmelevskoi, who rejoined the team less than a month later.<\/p>\n

9Class was the first new face and kept his spot on the roster amid numerous player swaps that followed throughout the season.<\/p>\n

While the Russian Dota 2 pro did not find much success with Tundra initially, he helped them place third at ESL One Birmingham 2024 in April and fourth at Riyadh Masters 2024<\/a> in July.<\/p>\n

Yet despite his contributions, 9Class could not help Tundra Esports at The International 2024<\/a> due to visa issues.<\/p>\n

Tundra have not specified the reason for 9Class’ departure, nor which team he has signed with.<\/p>\n

\n

Today we say farewell & thank you to 9Class as he is transferred to his new team<\/p>\n

There are many young, talented and motivated players in the scene and 9Class is one of the players that impressed us with his unique playstyle and vision on how to play the game \ud83e\udde0<\/p>\n
