Eastern European Dota 2 teams made a lot of interesting transfers before the deadline and the qualifiers for the Dota Pro Circuit 2022/23 Tour 1. That is why the we on CyberScore decided to tell you about the most significant changes.
Eight teams will start the DPC 2022/23 in the first division, and only Nemiga Gaming has managed to fully maintain its last year’s roster. It looks like this:

- Ivan ‘Vazya‘ German;
- Vitaly ‘so bad‘ Oshmankevich;
- Stanislav ‘Malr1ne‘ Potorak;
- Ilya ‘Kiritych‘ Ulyanov.
The leadership of Virtus.pro made serious decision to completely change the roster which represented the Russian team in the qualifiers for The International 2022. RAMZES666, DM, gpk, Xakoda and yamich left VP in the off-season. The head of Virtus.pro direction in Dota 2 asked the fans to be patient and wait until the new members of the team find the winning formula.

Mind Games was supposed to play in the elite division, but sold their slot to the Nightfall’s mix. Later, this line-up was signed by BetBoom Team. It is composed of famous Russian esportsmen, including TORONTOTOKYO, who will now play in fifth position:
- Ivan ‘Pure‘ Moskalenko;
- Danil ‘gpk~‘ Skutin;

Immediately after the elimination from The International 2022, rumors appeared that TORONTOTOKYO might leave Team Spirit’s active roster. The situation remained uncertain for a long time, but closer to the deadline, it became known that Khertek had indeed left the club, and larl from the BetBoom Team had taken in his place.
