Another uncrowned king is going to retire for Dota 2, and it is Somnus. Too sad that they didn't end well for this TI and sad to see him go, he posted this on his weibo account.

Although their last game was interesting and hyped against Entity but that's burnt them out and having contracted with the covid virus, it's truly hard to proceed to the next stage.

Yes, its sad that well known names and a great player do retire on pro scene.
Lets attached up some links for that https://afkgaming.com/dota2/news/somnus-seemingly-announces-his-retirement-from-pro-dota-2-after-ti11-exit

He posted, "My youth is destined to have regrets and hard feelings, right? Thank you all for your concern and encouragement. My youth is over.

Since LGD times, i do always being impressed on how Somnus plays strong on his role.He might not able to
get some TI but he's been respected and known by the entire dota 2 community.

I don't think that his youth is destined for regrets but I understand those words he has said because it's full of frustration for him. For the past TIs, he was close for being a champ together with Ame but it has never happened.

Now, on this TI, his team except xNova got the virus and they had hard time playing on the main stage and they're eliminated.

I can sense that he is full of frustration and as a pro player, they all want the best outcome but it can't happen to all of them. He'll retire as one of the best mid players.
