MinD_ContRoL has a storied history in Dota, from his long tenure in Team Liquid, with an Aegis on his belt, to a long stint with Nigma Galaxy that saw promising results. And post TI 2023, MinD_ContRoL made a move to Tundra at the start of 2024 as part of the org\u2019s rebuild. However, barely two months into his entry, MinD_ContRoL has been indefinitely suspended in the middle of a major tournament. First announced by MinD_ContRoL himself, he announced on February 26 that he was looking for a team right in the middle of DreamLeague Season 22. \u201cLFT, just got kicked before the match,\u201d he simply tweeted. MinD_ContRoL kicked from Tundra Esports in the middle of DreamLeague Season 22 Several hours after MinD_ContRoL\u2019s tweet, Tundra issued a statement on his removal from the team. \u201cWe can confirm the indefinite suspension of Iven \u201cMinD_ContRoL\u201d Ivanoc pending an internal disciplinary investigation,\u201d the statement read. \u201cWe were notified by the player that he would no longer participate and represent Tundra unless unreasonable demands were met.\u201d The statement rebutes MinD_ContRoL\u2019s claims of being kicked from the team, rather it was him demanding to no longer play for them. In his place, Tundra enlisted Vladislav \u201claise\u201d Lais to stand in for their second-day matches against Shopify Rebellion and Aurora, both of which ended in a 1-1 draw. MinD_ContRoL would go on to appear on Gorgc\u2019s stream to talk about the debacle. He revealed that it was the re-arrival of David \u201cMoonMeander\u201d Tan as coach, Ivan \u201cPure\u201d Moskalenko taking his role as captain, and the arrival of Ludwig \u201czai\u201d W\u00e5hlberg as the general manager that caused the falling out. \u201cFirst what happened is Pure took my Captain spot, basically he stole it from me, which was okay for me as long as we\u2019re winning. But that\u2019s not a good thing right? Because you can\u2019t just win all the time,\u201d MinD_ContRoL said. \u201cThat thing in itself is okay. Then the next thing that came up is MoonMeander. He was suggested by our CEO\u2026 I said I don\u2019t like this idea at all, I don\u2019t want to have this coach, I don\u2019t like it. Then he found a way to convince me without me being able to say no in a way,\u201d MinD_ContRoL revealed. \u201cIt was basically a way to enforce me working with MoonMeander.\u201d The breaking point came with the appointment of zai on February 23, whom MinD_ContRoL once again voiced his displeasure of working with. And all of these allegedly resulted in him having less power in the team. \u201cSo basically I have no voice or power in the team as a leader at all. It\u2019s being taken over by Moon, zai, and Pure, so I hate that and I can\u2019t let them abuse me anymore.\u201d MinD_ContRoL gave an ultimatum to Tundra\u2019s CEO, asking him to choose between him or the three, and he supposedly chose the new guard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Top Dota 2 pro booted from team in the middle of a major event YouTube: ESLTop Dota 2 veteran Ivan \u201cMinD_ContRoL\u201d Ivannoc has been suspended by Tundra Esports despite being in the middle of DreamLeague Season 22.
