Sumail to stand in for Liquid as Boxi takes time away from Dota

Team Liquid's offlaner Samuel 'Boxi' Svahn takes an indefinite break from competing. Free agent Sumail 'SumaiL' Syed Hassan will take over his spot for the upcoming DPC matches. 23-year old offlaner Samuel 'Boxi' Svahn will take some time away from Dota to be with his family. Team Liquid announced the break on social media this Friday, 23 April.

As the team is currently playing in the DPC21: S2 - WEU Upper Division, they filled up their roster with North American star player Sumail 'SumaiL' Syed Hassan as a stand-in until Boxi can join them again. Liquid's next series will be against Brame on 27 April.

Please send your support to @boxi98 and his family, and to @SumaaaaiL as well for stepping in while Boxi is on leave. pic.twitter.com/cObCV1NPH0
