DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division II - Changes in participating teams
The Division 2 of DPC North America 2023 Tour 1 is set to begin on January 30. With less than a month to its commencement, a major change has happened in the participation. Team Legacy is no longer a part of this event, and CDUB Esports is taking up that team’s place.
PGL, the organizer of the event, tweeted about this development last night. According to the tweet, this replacement is being done as Team Legacy is no longer eligible to play in the DPC NA 2023 Tour 1.
Although it has not been revealed why Team Legacy has been determined to be “no longer eligible”, from what we have heard so far, it seems that it is a case of in-team fighting, and players of the team refusing to play with other teammates.
CDUB Esports and Team Legacy in DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Closed Qualifiers
Team Legacy and Fart Studios were the top two teams of DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Closed Qualifier, and with that, they made it to DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division II. However, although Fart Studios will still continue playing in Tour 1: Division 2 of DPC NA 2023, the same cannot be said for Team Legacy.
Team Legacy would not be playing in DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Division II, and in their stead, it will be CDUB Esports, the team that Team Legacy defeated in the Upper Bracket Final of DPC NA 2023 Tour 1: Closed Qualifier.
