Cloud9 fans confused by return of \u201cdrunk\u201d logo to celebrate Dota 2 roster Helena Kristiansson for ESL \/ Cloud9After a two-year hiatus, Cloud9 is returning to the Dota 2 scene with an international roster that combines established veterans with young talent. They\u2019ve also brought back an old version of their logo, which the community claims looks like their normal one had a bit too much at the tavern. Say what you will about the Cloud9 organization, they are not giving up when it comes to the Dota 2 scene. As the first month of 2020 comes to a close, C9 are making a return to Dota 2 for the first time in two and a half years. To celebrate, the team posted on Twitter that \u201ctheir old logo is back,\u201d and shared the image of the infamous Cloud2 logo with a silver medal. #C9DOTA2 is back\u2026 Which means our old logo is also back \ud83e\udd48 pic.twitter.com\/8WAFzFSd5m \u2014 Cloud9 (@Cloud9) January 29, 2020 Several fans commented that it looked like the original C9 logo \u201chad a hard night out\u201d after consuming drinks, with one fan remarking that they felt drunk just by looking at it. So that\u2019s what the C9 logo looks like after a hard night out \u2014 David Peterle (@david_peterle) January 29, 2020 The fck is that ? I feel drunk just by looking at it xd \u2014 Jakub \u2018K0pky\u2019 Kopk\u00e1\u0161 (@itachi478_) January 29, 2020 However, long-time fans of the organization\u2019s Dota 2 exploits may need a drink when they see it, as it\u2019s a harrowing reminder of the team\u2019s past shortcomings and an explanation for why they included a silver medal. The C2 image is actually a joke logo that was created at the tail end of 2014, and was a heartbreaking reminder of the original C9 roster\u2019s numerous second-place finishes. That year, Cloud9 finished just short at DreamLeague Season 1 and 2, DreamHack Bucharest, World Cyber Arena, and the World E-sport Championships. After this image started circulating throughout the community in late November, they unfortunately finished number two again at The Summit 2. The org made big roster changes at the beginning of 2015, but released the squad later that year. On January 29 2020, the team announced that Johan \u2018pieliedie\u2019 \u00c5str\u00f6m would wear the white and sky blue for the third time. He was a member of the TI7 roster, which comprised of the core of the organization\u2019s previously-mentioned first Dota roster that competed at TI4, which included Jacky \u2018EternaLEnVy\u2019 Mao and Kurtis \u2018Aui_2000\u2019 Ling. After 2 years, #C9DOTA comes off of cooldown as we rejoin competitive @DOTA2! Our roster:@skemdota2@vtFaded@MiSeRyDOTA@FLeeDOTA@PieLieDieDota Welcome the #C9FAM everyone! \ud83d\udcf0Read more: https:\/\/t.co\/b4cFXiaTlI pic.twitter.com\/UZNWRjmFbg\u2014 Cloud9 (@Cloud9) January 29, 2020 Joining pieliedie for the 2020 campaign is Andrei \u2018skem\u2019 Ong, the returning Rasmus \u2018MISERY\u2019 Filipsen, Francis \u2018FLee\u2019 Lee, and on loan from EHOME, Cheng \u2018vtFaded\u2019 Jia Hao. C9 are looking to right those previous wrongs, as well as make up for their tough showings at The International over the years, with this new roster combination. They will begin in the Southeast Asia region, but plan to represent North America at future events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
