Solo Joins New CIS Squad for 2021 Dota Pro Circuit Registration

New Stacks Formed Ahead of Dota Pro Circuit’s Return on Jan. 18

Changes are underway as organizations and players gear up for the return of the Dota Pro Circuit on Jan. 18. This includes the formation of new stacks competing in all six regions.

Veteran CIS players, led by former Virtus Pro captain Alexey “Solo” Berezin, have come together to form one of these new stacks.

Introducing NoTechies: A New Stack in CIS Qualifiers

After the disbandment of the Just Error stack, Solo, along with Vladimir “No[o]ne” Minenko, Bakyt “Zayac” Emilzhanov, and Syed “SumaiL” Hassan, found themselves without a team. Solo has now formed a new stack called NoTechies, which will compete in the upcoming DPC CIS qualifiers.

Additions to the NoTechies Stack

Joining Solo and Zayac in the NoTechies stack are Egor “Ergon” Kozlov, Vladyslav “Crystallize” Krystanek, and Abdimalik “Malik” Sajlau. Ergon previously played for Team Spirit, while Malik recently spent time with EXTREMUM.

Although Crystallize is still on Natus Vincere’s inactive roster, he will be playing with NoTechies until further notice, similar to his former teammate Alexander “Immersion” Hmelevskoy who is currently with Live to Win.

Solo’s New Challenge

This will be the first time Solo and No[o]ne are not playing together since their time at Vega Squadron in 2015. They then went on to be mainstays on VP for over four years. Now, Solo will lead his new team into the Upper Division league for their region in the coming weeks.
