The second team under the  Virtus.Pro flagship, whom just recently became the first team, after the guys behind  Virtus.Pro decided to release the main squad from their duties,  Virtus.Pro Polar or  ASUS ROG Polar as it is also known has lost two players.

First  Andrew 'Mag~' Chipenko was cut from the team due to some missunderstandings within the two parties, the manager of the team,  George 'drAmer' Faleeva stated:

"Since as today ASUS.Polar and Andrew part ways. This wasn't an easy decision for the team, but the changes as a team are essential.

Who will take place in Mag's shoes is currently unknown, finding a fifth player will take some time.

Organization thanks Andrew for his game and wishes him success in his future career "

Second, another ukrainian player left the team in the name of  Alexander 'DkPhobos' Kucheria in order to join a fellow country team in the name of NaVi where he will fill in the shoes of Gleb 'Funn1k' Lipatnikov.

The main squad of Virtus.Pro was released due to poor results, and as per usual for the russian based teams, when there are no results, the organization behind the team does not support them in becoming better, they just kick them.

Manager Sergey 'diver233' Pisotsky stated regarding this move:

"Normal discipline and motivation, prevented the first team to go to the finals of the second season of League, and then prepare for normal DAC, showed that at this stage the team is not able to achieve the necessary for a decent performance at TI5 form.

We carried out several structural changes to the team that changed things for the better, but now, in the period before TI5 progress is unsatisfactory, and I decided not to take the boys last chance for a decent performance at TI5 more suitable for each of them collective.

Good luck to all the players and thanks for the work done as part of the job."
