Azure Ray's uniform
Azure Ray were the real revelation of the previous year. The team burst into the season from a top-4 spot in the Chinese DPC league and managed to make it to the Dota 2 World Championship thanks to the Chinese regional qualification. Even at that stage the team looked decent and outplayed quite a few big names on the scene in China, in particular Azure Ray did not miss out on The Internationational 2023 Xtreme Gaming. At the World Championship itself, the team made it to the top of the grid, with LGD Gaming and Gaimin Gladiators being their kryptonite. Fourth place at the debut The International for the new team can be considered a great achievement. And as a reward the players earned $182,733. Before the start of ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023, where ESL invited Chinese team, Azure Ray updated their roster. Xm, Xxs and XinQ have joined the team. Winning ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 provided the team with $300,000 in prize money. Despite this, the management of the organisation has carried out re-stuppings in the squad.
