Who Will Replace BraveAF For VCT Masters?
As VCT Masters is around the corner, they had to find a replacement for BraveAF as soon as possible. It had to be a player who holds an experience in LAN events to not face major LAN pressure. The task was also to find a player who has an experience in the role of Initiator or Controller.
