Gaimin Gladiators have announced a temporary roster change ahead of their FISSURE Universe Episode 4 Closed Qualifier match against Yakult Brothers. Team captain Melchior "Seleri" Hillenkamp has been placed in an inactive role to take an extended break from competitive Dota 2, citing the intense tournament schedule. In his absence, Artem "Malady" Gareev is stepping in as a stand-in. Despite the adjustment, Gaimin Gladiators delivered a dominant 3-0 victory over Yakult Brothers with Malady in the lineup. The team has also confirmed that they will be competing in DreamLeague Season 25 with him. The organization expressed full support for Seleri’s decision and looks forward to his return. Fans will be watching closely as Gaimin Gladiators continue their strong performance with Malady on board.
