Lorenof

Arseniy “Arszeeqq” Usov shared information that supposedly Artem “Lorenof” Melnyk is not being signed even by tier-1 teams because of high salary demands.

The well known analyst spoke about this in his Telegram channel.

“The amount of experience playing with the greatest Dota players that Lorik will have after playing with Falcons will be off the charts. He played with 33, played with Idealich, will play with champions. Recently someone threw in that Artem is not being picked up by a team because he is asking for tens of thousands of dollars in salary. SO JUST PAY HIM ALREADY, he is a real boss, isnt he? It’s time to stop this endless cycle of Lorik…”

According to him Lorenof already has experience playing with some of the best players on the Dota 2 pro scene, which is extremely important. Nevertheless there are rumors that teams do not want to sign him permanently because of demands in several tens of thousands of dollars per month.

Arszeeqq believes that even if this demand is true, the player is worth that money, which is proven by his success as a stand in. It is worth noting that Lorenof helped Aurora not only win two tournaments in a row, but also set a world record. Together with him the club managed to win 22 matches in a row which became the new record of the Dota 2 pro scene, and many fans still cant understand why top teams hesitate.
