Marcel Ekki Golovienko has become a stand-in for 9Pandas. At the upcoming EliteLeague 2024 event, he will replace the former support, Vladislav Antares Kertman. The information was shared by the team representatives in their official telegram channel.

Ekki moved to 9Pandas from Team Secret, where he was a member from January to March 2024. With his previous team Marcel played at Riyadh Masters 2023, DreamLeague Season 22 and The International 2023.

During the online stream, 9Pandas captain, Alexey Solo Berezin, shared his thoughts on the new replacement in the team, noting that Ekki has fit in well with the team and speaks russian well.

"Ekki fit in well, he understands Russian very well, he can coyle some things in russian himself. He plays well. I think he fits into our team. We are happy with him. We'll see the results of the Elite League"

In addition, according to Solo, it turned out that Antares left the team at his own request.

Vlad was tired and decided to take a break from Dota, rethink the game, maybe change his role. Ask Vladislav, he will tell you everything. No one kicked him.
