btw where is super1man?

Super1man last came back for an indian tournament in 2018, he's been afk since. There were talks of him returning for Indus cup (a mixed 1v1, 2v2 and 3v3 tourney for Indian players), that concluded earlier this month, but he didn't.
As far as dragonstar is concerned, it's unlikely that he will participate in this tournament because there's a cap for the combined 1v1 elo for the team, and dragon's rating is over half of the total elo cap 11

 

I’ll post a list of low elo players on the server so people like him, assk, etc can still form teams if they wish to.
