Evil Geniuses

Max “Demon1” Mazanov has confirmed his attendance at Masters Tokyo, which is great news as his arrival during the Regular Season helped the team transition from a terrible condition to becoming one of the best North American contenders. Evil Geniuses had luck on their side to get a spot in the Americas Playoffs, and in that stage, they secured a ticket to Masters by defeating stronger squads like NRG and Cloud9. This team has great potential; all they need is consistency to become one of the greats!
