TIGER part ways with team

24-2-2021 19:00

The Mongolian squad will remain united and are already on the lookout for a new home.

TIGER have parted ways with their Mongolian squad after a year together, the players have told HLTV.org. The team will stick together despite the setback in hopes of remaining a top contender in Asia and becoming a competitor on the world stage.

Initially headlined by Erdenetsogt "⁠erkaSt⁠" Gantulga under the AUGUST tag, the Asian squad were picked up by TIGER last March and came close to signing Owen "⁠smooya⁠" Butterfield and Marco "⁠Snappi⁠" Pfeiffer in May, although they didn't go through with the creation of the international team following high-profile victories against the likes of TYLOO and ViCi in their first-place finishes in ESL One: Road to Rio - Asia and Weibo Cup Asian Championship.

The Mongolian squad’s form oscillated after those results, and shortly after PAL Fall, Bold "⁠ncl⁠" Batsukh and erkaSt parted ways with the team — the latter joining the international Asian squad formed under the NG banner.

dobu and company are searching for a new organization to play for

With Tengis "⁠rate⁠" Boldbaatar and Sodbileg "⁠cool4st⁠" Batbaatar filling the vacant roster spots, TIGER qualified for DreamHack Masters Winter, in which they finished in second place, and won ESEA Open Season 35 Asia-Pacific, ending 2020 on a high note. In January, the team made one last change, bringing in 21-year-old Uuganbayar "⁠NEUZ⁠" Nyam-Otgon, formerly of Mazaalai, in lieu of cool4st.

"It's been a year since we joined TIGER, and during that time we've had a lot of success and proved that we're one of the best teams in Asia,” Gan-Erdene "⁠dobu⁠" Batbold told HLTV.org. "Now our goal is to become a stable No.1 team in Asia and also become a strong team that can compete against the best teams in the world.

"Unfortunately, our time with TIGER ends here. We are now searching for a new organization that will help us compete on the international stage and we can be reached at [email protected]. We would also like to thank all our fans that support us."

TIGER had the following roster:

Gan-Erdene "⁠dobu⁠" Batbold
Bat-Enkh "⁠kabal⁠" Batbayar
Uuganbayar "⁠NEUZ⁠" Nyam-Otgon
Yesuntumur "⁠nin9⁠" Gantulga
Tengis "⁠rate⁠" Boldbaatar

2021-02-24 19:04

expected no competition at all in asia atm

F :(

Noo! Their logo was sick,I wanted to get it at Stockholm major

sad

Well they weren't even Top 2 Asian team and if given more time once the season started, NG would have been better then them too. Sad to see this happen, hopefully no Valulrante switch happens.

2021-02-24 19:05

Ofcourse no they arent going to switch to lulorant.

2021-02-24 19:42

NG wasn't going to be better than tiger dude lmao

2021-02-24 20:23

on paper they are and with some competition against the top teams of the region , i believe they could be.

2021-02-24 19:11

what i should do with this news now?????????

2021-02-24 19:14

so now Vici and Tyloo main threat is gone, I guess Tiger org decided that after erKast left this team had no potential. From on the verge to signing snappi and smooya too. Wonder how many asian teams will be left...

2021-02-24 19:22

Dont forget about NG tho

2021-02-24 19:40

NG sucks dude. I already lost my all hope. They lost against tier 5 chinese teams

still early days I guess but they are on paper top3 Asian team

2021-02-24 19:44

They literally on top of the group on ESEA lmao.

2021-02-24 19:46

they only lost once so far in esea season 36 APAC

2021-02-25 06:31

Have they even played with rate already? I don't know, their previous roster faced some problems with roleplayers, so it's understandable that the org. parted ways with them, but who will pick them up? Maybe if rate will fix their problems someone is going to, we will see. GL to those guys.

There are actually some rich companies in mongolia which interested in esports lately. I hope they will pick them up. But still esport is so fucking under developed in mongolia. Boomers think all pc center, cafes should be closed because they are affecting young peoples life badly lol. Also police doing anti esport things like trying to find drugs in pc center cafes with entire full armed swat team lmao (actually happened once)

2021-02-24 19:50

Would be cool to have a mongolian org tho.

2021-02-24 20:00

I mean e-sport is pretty big in Asia isn't it? Those things you said are crazy.

2021-02-24 21:22

Hopefully it turns around and esports get good recognition in Mongolia. Tiger is/was a sick team even without erkast and D13 is also somewhat good

2021-02-24 22:09

Sad!

2021-02-24 19:49

:((( this is sad, however mongolia has got a great scene more to come

No events for them to participate..lol Asian cs has died

2021-02-24 20:02

Very sad news. Mongolian CS has improved a lot in recent years. There are many strong individual players in Asia. But the Asian region lacks tournaments.

2021-02-24 21:01

Hope the players find new homes soon.

2021-02-24 21:54

who?

2021-02-24 21:57

Last 2 month more players lost a team than we saw csgo matches. In some way nice to see the bad players get out of the competition so in the top 30 the competition level rises on the other hand... nope there is no bad thing.
