Recently



Recently Orange announced their team was no more, and that their players would be moving on to another organization. That has now been revealed with Titan, a newcomer to the scene who will be picking up the squad. Check out the official announcements on their social media, found on Facebook Twitter , and their Website After a great many years of following competitive gaming, a new organization is born. Titan aims to be the prime example for professionalism in eSports. As a multigaming organization, our first endeavor is Dota 2. We would like to welcome Joel "Xtinct" Chan Zhan Leong, Khoo "Ohy" Chong Xin, Lim "Net" Wai Pern, Lee "Ky.xY" Kong Yang and Chua "Ice" Chee Cai to the team. May there be success aplenty!



Statement from the team manager



Statement from the team manager I had a really unforgettable time in Invasion MUFC, I would like to say my thanks to Mr. Jerry Kok, Mr. Andy Soong and everyone from Invasion MUFC for everything they have done for me. Being a part of Titan and working with talented people here is amazing. Forming a team with top level players was always my dream and I am looking forward to help them achieve their ambitious goals.



Last but not least, thank you to Damien Grust, CEO and owner of Titan, for inviting me to be part of this new eSports brand and also to my new teammates, let's work hard together. I look forward to our exciting future!



Team Roster:



XtiNcT

Net

Ohaiyo

Ice

Ky.xY



TeamLiquid sat down with Ohaiyo from the new team to get his thoughts on their future.







Tell us about Titan!



Well, after it was released that Mushi would be joining DK, I think many of our fans felt a little disappointed. But the way we saw it, it was a great opportunity for him, and we wish him a great future with DK!



Titan will be the four of us who remained - me, Net , Kyxy and Xtinct, and we will fill the last slot with a former Orange player... Ice!





How do you feel about this team composition?



Net, Ice, and Xtinct have been #4 and #5 player in the past so we are trying out roles in practice. Its a new challenge and we can all chip in to find who fits which role best.





Who will draft for Titan now that Mushi is not around?



Xtinct will be the drafter right now.





OK. Let's talk about a team setup that worked for you guys: the Orange that finished Top 3 at TI3. What was your team's secret at TI3?



Well first of all, before we came to TI3, our performance was very low. We had a lot of training with another SEA team, Zenith. We played everyday from noon to midnight, and played at least two bo5s with them each day.



We did badly, and went like 20 - 5 against Zenith. Then, at TI3, when we played the first match of the group stage against TongFu, we couldn’t see what the problem was. We lost 2 - 0 to them in two 40 minute games, and after that we had a meeting to make a decision. We talked about the draft, and decided that we’d go back to Mushi drafting for us (xtinct was drafting at the time).



In my opinion, our secret at TI3 was confidence and teamwork. In every single game after that TongFu match, we managed to stick to our playstyle and do good work things like the Dark Seer combo.





As a team, what will you miss the most about Mushi?



As a team? Hmmm… I’m not sure. Personally, I will miss one-on-one training with him. He is one of the best solomids in SEA, and it’s great training against him.





What goals do you have for the Titan for the rest of 2013? What do you hope to accomplish as a team?



Our goals this year is to be the best Dota 2 team in the South East Asia. We will play our best and try and always get good results. If we trust each other and go into this as a team, I’m sure we can overcome any problem.





Have people been settling into their new roles well? Has the team come to an agreement of what everyone’s job will be?



Yep! Just as Chuan went from 2nd/3rd position on iG to playing support as his main role, we’re all going over options and trying out where people feel they are best used. All of us are determined to play as a single unit and stick together to train and develop as a team.





At TI3, Orange played many different heroes and was one of the most versatile teams around. Will Titan continue to focus on playing a wide range of heroes?



Yes, of course! For me, the more strategies (which include heroes) you can play in Dota 2, the easier it will be to win.





Is there any specific style or strategies you will be looking towards as a team?



As always, it depends on practice but of course we will have many styles we can play. All of us have many ways we can play and we will discuss strategies together and choose the ones everyone is the most comfortable with. I have my own strategies up my sleeve as well (laugh).





No plans on going to China to play in any mainland tourneys?



I think we maybe will not be going to China in the next few months because we will need to stabilise our performance here before moving out.
