Zilkenberg returns to TheMongolZ

TheMongolZ have announced that Temuulen "Zilkenberg" Battulga returns to their team with immediate effect.

The 26-year-old will replace youngster Gan-Erdene "⁠dobu⁠" Batbold, who has departed the team for reasons that have not been made clear by the organisation.

Temuulen "⁠Zilkenberg⁠" Battulga stepped down from TheMongolz's roster in November of last year to make way for Enkhtaivan "⁠Machinegun⁠" Lkhagva, Mongolia's most famous player.

Since then, Zilkenberg had been playing as a stand-in for a number of teams, most notably for paiN at the IGL Finals, helping the Brazilian side to a semi-final appearance.

Zilkenberg will play for TheMongolZ again

TheMongolz's announcement comes just two weeks after the team failed to impress at the Asia Minor Championship, where they finished 5th-6th following back-to-back group stage defeats against Immunity.

The Mongolian team will field their new roster for the first time in the Asia-Oceania qualifier for DreamHack Masters Malmö 2017, which will kick off on Friday. Their roster looks as follows:

Mongolia Bat-Enkh "⁠kabal⁠" Batbayar
Mongolia Bold "⁠ncl⁠" Batsuh
Mongolia Tsog "⁠Tsogoo⁠" Mashbat  
Mongolia Enkhtaivan "⁠Machinegun⁠" Lkhagva   
Mongolia Temuulen "⁠Zilkenberg⁠" Battulga
