Elephant welcoming rOtK as Head coach – Who is he?
Bai “rOtK” Fan is a former Dota 2 player (now coach) from China. He’s been involved with the scene since 2011, when he first joined up with Team DK.

What’s next?
In the first season of the Dota 2 Pro Circuit, team Elephant did not reach their intended result. They finished in 5th, just under team PSG.LGD, only achieving $25,000 from the prize pool, and not receiving a seed to the Major Wild Card event. Now, instead of some drastic player changes, the team has decided to bring on an excellent coach, which will hopefully help them get better results in the near future.
