Team Empire has been in disarray over the last two weeks, an unfortunate consequence of the release of two keys players in ua Andrey 'alwayswannafly' Bondarenko and more importantly ru Maxim 'yoky' Kim. Team Empire announced the addition of Russian pubstar ru Ivan 'uBaH' Kapustin at the end of August, but it appears they have now had a change of heart, bringing back ru Maxim 'yoky' Kim for their roster for the upcoming Fall Majors Qualifiers.

Following the addition of UbaH in August, Empire announced their fifth player ru Andrei 'the_apathy' Aleshkov shortly after at the beginning of September, but ran into trouble when it appeared he was already locked to the Fall Major roster for ru aSpera.dota2.net*.

In the aftermath of TI5, Team Empire's results with the roster were appauling, winning only 1 of their 11 matches. However, it appears Team Empire have found a solution to their poor form, and beat eu OG on Thursday and fi STARK* earlier today with Yoky back in the team.

Nofear will captain Empire
An official newspost an hour ago made their roster for the upcoming Fall Majors official, and it sees both ubaH and The_apathy removed from the line-up.

However, perhaps the biggest news is that Empire will be changing captain.

After departing Empire, Yoky joined up with Goblak's ru newteam123123* who are currently competing in the Defense Season V and were part of the GameShow Global this weekend.

ru Alexander 'Nofear' Churochkin was also part of newteam123, and the Russian player will be following Yoky to Team Empire, as well as replacing ua Roman 'Resolut1on' Fominok as captain of the team.



In their official news post, Team Empire stated that the entire roster is currently in Moscow bootcamping in preparation for the upcoming Fall Major Qualifiers.
