StarLadder starts today but unfortunately not without one more bump in the road. Cloud9's bOne7 is unable to play due to a medical emergency. The team's matches have been moved to tomorrow, giving them more time to find a stand-in.
The star studded StarLadder season 10 finals start today, with eight teams plugging in at Cyberarena in Kiev once again to play in the prestigious event, which has now become a backbone of competitive Dota 2. However, one of the teams still does not have their status set to go. Cloud9 will be playing without bOne7 who woke up with extreme back pain which after a medical diagnosis turned out to be kidney stones. The team is now forced to find a last minute stand-in on very short notice. Due to their situation, all Cloud9's matches have been moved to tomorrow to give them the most possible time to find a player.StarLadder ran it’s first global season during the spring where Team DK eventually took first place. They kept the same format this time, looking to repeat the success. The two Chinese teams (Vici Gaming and NewBee) did however drop out of the tournament recently and were replaced by the fifth and sixth place of Europe. Nevertheless, the teams competing should provide for an exciting event. Find the updated schedule below.
