HEROIC has announced that Wisper will take over the mid lane duties, marking the conclusion of a substantial three-part roster adjustment following their impressive top-six finish at The International 2025.

This change signifies a key development in the team’s journey as they aim to enhance their roster while maintaining the synergy that contributed to their remarkable success. The restructuring commenced on September 19 with the departure of mid laner 4nalog, which resulted in an immediate core lineup vacancy.

Shortly after, on September 20, Wisper declared his decision to leave the offlane position, creating two critical openings within the team. However, HEROIC swiftly reacted by reinstating Davai Lama, who rejoined the roster after leaving in December 2024. The last announcement on September 21 confirmed Wisper’s move to the mid lane.

For Wisper, this transition marks a return to a familiar role. The 25-year-old Bolivian player has previous mid lane experience from his tenure with Infamous and has recently played in this capacity in about 20% of his recent matches. His adaptability reflects both personal agility and the team’s confidence in his ability to tackle new challenges at an elite level.

These modifications follow HEROIC’s exceptional performance at The International, where they bounced back from an early 0-2 defeat to PARIVISION, achieving one of South America’s best TI results. Their surprising win against Tundra Esports showcased the team’s strategic depth and mechanical prowess, enhancing their global standing. Instead of opting for sweeping changes, HEROIC implemented internal adjustments that maintain their identity while fine-tuning strategic execution.

With BLAST Slam IV starting on October 14 and DreamLeague Season 27 qualifiers soon after, the revamped roster will face immediate challenges. The forthcoming matches will determine whether Wisper’s transition and Davai Lama’s return can enhance HEROIC’s stability, or if additional changes might be necessary. What remains evident is the team’s dedication to balancing regional pride with competitive aspirations, positioning themselves as leaders for South America in Dota 2.
