The North American Dota Scene Experiences Changes in the 2023 Roster Shuffle Season
There have been significant changes in the North American Dota world recently. From organizations leaving to last-minute roster moves, the 2023 roster shuffle season has been eventful. One notable change is Jonáš “SabeRLight” Volek finding a new home in NA.
After having an impressive season with TSM that ended on a sour note at The International 2022, SabeRLight joined Shopify Rebellion earlier this month alongside Cr1t and Arteezy. As he settles into his new team, his former captain, TSM’s MoonMeander, recently shared his thoughts about the move during a nostalgic stream, taking his fans back to the golden era of his channel.
For those who are not familiar with MoonMeander’s history before Dota 2, he was a young talent trying to break into the competitive Heroes of Newerth scene in the 2010s. During that time, he was known for his energetic streams, which featured dancing around after making amazing plays while taunting his opponents.
As one of the most iconic songs from that era played in the background – “Neva Eva” by Trillville – MoonMeander shared his thoughts about SabeRLight’s move to Shopify Rebellion.
“SabeRLight is a cuck, guys. He’s a betrayer,” MoonMeander said. “He joined a team that kicks its offlaner every year. See you, SabeRLight, in the free agency market next year when you get kicked.”
MoonMeander continued his speech, sharing his expectations of SabeRLight coming back crying and asking for forgiveness. This stream serves as a warning for the European offlaner. TSM’s coach concluded this section of his stream with the assurance that his team is determined to face off against Shopify Rebellion in the upcoming season.
While MoonMeander’s words may initially sound harsh, they were all said in good fun and with faith, creating a nostalgic atmosphere for his long-time fans. Considering that MoonMeander and SabeRLight are great friends, his words can be seen as friendly banter and a challenge for the 2023 DPC season.
