China team, Knights, had multiple allegations on their back throughout Tour 1 DPC. The first accusation against them was for a regional league match and another during the Lima Major. There have been no follow up to the accusations.

Knights crashed and burned at the Lima Major, finishing last with a disappointing performance. According to the Dota 2 Major registration page, the team has been renamed to Antarctic Penguins and all players have been removed.

The familiar faces on Old G might make a return for Tour 2 qualifiers. The team - comprising TI champions trio - last competed in Tour 1 WEU qualifiers but failed in their final step. A Monkey Business Show (MBS) podcast recently hinted at N0tail taking a break and Ceb continuing with the team, but there is no confirmation as of late.

Rumors have it that Resolution will leave Team Secret to play pos 3 in Old G. There are also rumors about Ceb transitioning to pos 4.

Following a disappointing performance in WEU DPC and missing the first Dota 2 Major, a roster shuffle in Team Secret is no surprise. Rumors have it that Team Secret will replace two of its players - W_Zayac and Recolution. Its midlaner, BOOM, might switch to offlane as he has been seen spamming offlane heroes in pubs.

UPDATE: It is confirmed, Resolution and Zayac, leave Team Secret. Their replacements have yet to be announced.

The popular CIS team, Virtus.pro drops its carry, krylat, and pos 5, Dukalis. The team faced an unfortunate incident when its initial carry player, Koma, was banned for account sharing. The team had to sign a player last minute, grabbing krylat. After a disappointing season and missing out on the Lima Major, Virtus.pro decides to change their roster, dropping krylat and Dukalis. The team then announced the addition of young player, Kiritych, and notable captain, fng.

Interestingly, PSG.LGD opted to change its offlaner. The team had a great run during the first CN DPC season, grabbing first place ahead of Team Aster. However, PSG.LGD faced an unfortunate incident when the team couldn't come to the Lima Major in full formula. Its then-offlaner, Li "项羽" Longwu, had VISA issues and were replaced by Ren "old eLeVeN" Yangwei. After a disappointing performance at the Major, PSG.LGD swapped its offlaner with Malaysian player, Nicholas "zeal" Lim.
