Riyadh Masters 2023: EG and Shopify Rebellion Set to Showcase South America's Dota 2 Dominance

Evil Geniuses, known for their dominance in South America (SA), once again solidified their status as one of the region's finest by qualifying for the prestigious Riyadh Masters 2023. As of now, EG is actively engaged in the Dreamleague Season 20 Group Stage 2, striving to secure a spot in the playoffs. Their upcoming series against Gaimin Gladiators on June 22nd carries immense importance. To clinch a playoff berth, EG must emerge victorious in this crucial encounter and force tiebreakers for the remaining two slots. The stakes couldn't be higher for EG, as their ambitions soar to claim glory at the Riyadh Masters.

Meanwhile, Shopify Rebellion embarked on their own journey, facing a formidable challenge in Dreamleague Season 20. The team encountered a hurdle when Abed "Abed" Yusop, their skilled midlaner, encountered visa issues. However, they swiftly adapted by enlisting the talented Amer "Miracle-" Al-Barkawi as a stand-in player. Despite their best efforts, Shopify Rebellion experienced disappointment during Group Stage 1 of the tournament, ultimately bowing out of contention. Nonetheless, their commendable average placement ranking in Dreamleague secured their qualification for the Riyadh Masters 2023, granting them another opportunity to showcase their resilience and skill on a grand stage.
