Gaimin Gladiators are heading to the tournament without one of their roster members

Aske «Cy-» Larsen was not included in Gaimin Gladiators roster for FISSURE Universe: Episode 6, which may indicate that the team could indeed have lost their coach.

This information comes from the Liquipedia portal.

Typically, the coach would accompany Gaimin Gladiators to tournaments, but this time the team did not list him in the roster. Many in the Dota 2 community interpreted this as indirect confirmation that Cy- has already left the lineup.

However, the club has not made any official statements on the matter, so it is unclear whether the team truly lost their coach ahead of The International 2025.

It is worth noting that there were earlier rumors suggesting that Markus «Ace» Hoelgaard might leave Gaimin Gladiators immediately after the tournament concludes.
