Army Geniuses Team Profile
Army Geniuses entered the DOTA 2 pro scene in 2020. At that time, most of the players who debuted with AG were PG Orca graduates.
The roster they use is:
- Haikal “StarGazer” Hadzik
- Tri “Mamang Daya” Ultimate Power
- Shaid “woMy” M Reski
- Yukatheo “you_K” Glenn
- Hidayat “lawlesshy” Narwawan
The five players made their debut match, not in a trivial competition. But in an international competition, with the title ParaBellum DOTA 2 Tournament 2020 in Bangkok, Thailand.
For a newly formed team, the achievements obtained are quite good. AG managed to reach third place, after being defeated by Neon Esports with a score of 1:2.
Regeneration was carried out by AG in 2023 during the competition break to overhaul the existing squad. This is the moment where AG meets his target, InYourdreaM.
Apart from IYD, other players are:
- Yuri “Yowe” Dave Pacaña
- David “db-“ Buddha
- Tri “Jocham” Kuncoro
- Rizki “Varizh” Varizh
The coach is also not playing around. AG recruited Clairvoyance, former coach of the Cloud9 team, alongside Farand “Koala” Kowara who has been there since AG was formed.
Disbanded after 3 years of competition, what's wrong?
Before deciding to disband, AG had collaborated with M88 Mansion as their main sponsor. Since May 16 2023, the AG team changed its name to Mansion.AG because of the collaboration.
No one knows the exact reason why the DOTA 2 AG team was disbanded. However, speculation circulating in the DOTA 2 forum community is that the biggest factor is the slowness of the DOTA 2 competition in Indonesia, as well as the failure of Army Geniuses to qualify for the 2023 Bali Major Pro League.
This could be true, because they announced the news of the disbandment of their DOTA 2 division after the Bali Major Pro League finished.
Apart from that, AG's pillar of support also wants to immediately retire from the professional DOTA 2 scene.
Coach Koala said that this failure was caused by a very major difference in the patch from the DOTA 2 update.
With more maps and roles, and less preparation time to learn them, it makes a deadly combo to get your students to lift their suitcases from the Island of the Gods immediately.
The Retirement of the Elders
After officially disbanding, many former AG players decided to retire. Including the main player, IYD or In YourdreaM.
The player with the real name Muhammad Rizki expressed his intentions in a livestream session he conducted on his personal YouTube channel.
He admitted that he was no longer able to follow the DOTA 2 update schedule and patches, which were getting more and more difficult. "It's time for someone younger (to replace me) to make the nation proud, guys," said Rizki.
