Brazil Represented in the World 2020

—” If you are Brazilian, you have one job, which is to support those that are going to represent our flag. We are not going there to have fun. We have to support those that are going.” Said the coach.
Match INTZ History Before The Worlds 2020
After the two wins in 2016, INTZ took their third title and became the first Brazilian team to have the title of “Tri-Champions,” winning against CNB in Ibirapuera’s gymnasium. The team was still the same back then: Yang, Revolta, tockers, MicaO and jockster. That win also gave us a guaranteed spot in Worlds.
In 2018 the team did a pretty good comeback and won the first split. And now, in 2020 they are Champions, for the 5th time.
Congratulations to everyone involded! In the team we have Rodrigo “Tay” Panisa playing as a Top Laner, Diogo “Shini” Rogê as Jungler, bruno “Envy” Farias as Mid Laner, Micael “micaO” Rodrigues as our ADC and Ygor “RedBert” Freitas playing as Support. We also can’t forget Lucas “Maestro” Pierre, the coach and Lucas Almeida, team manager.
Last but not least, we have the sponsors that even with this crazy virus outbreak going on did not back out on the eSports and kept believing and investing in it. #Mastercard, #Gillette, #Dell and #RedBull, and it was certainly not for nothing since the audience went up 34%!
