KSCERATO and boltz to captain teams for MDL Season 30 All-Star Game
After a week of community voting, the ten players who will participate in the MDL Season 30 All-Star Game have been determined. As in previous iterations, the two highest-voted players — a set of Brazilian players in the form of Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato and Ricardo "boltz" Prass — will captain the two teams and hand-select their teammates from the list.
The ten players who made the shortlist are:
- Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato
- Ricardo "boltz" Prass
- Andrei "arT" Piovezan
- Yuri "yuurih" Santos
- Erik "fl0m" Flom
- Tyson "TenZ" Ngo
- Henrique "HEN1" Teles
- Colton "BASE" Musella
- Marian "tyfoon" Lesnic
- Nolan "Temperature" Pepper
This season sees the highest number of Brazilian players voted in, with a trio from FURIA earning the highest number of votes alongside Ricardo "boltz" Prass. Notably, Nolan "Temperature" Pepper managed to edged his way into tenth place while his team, The Fundamentals, will have to fight through MDL Season 30 Relegation in April to retain their spot for the upcoming season.
The MDL Season 30 All-Star Game is scheduled to play out on Sunday, March 31st, at 7 PM EDT. KSCERATO and boltz will take turns picking players for their lineup and a map apiece, with a community vote deciding which map the two teams will clash on should there be need for a decider.
Unlike the past two iterations, this year's MDL All-Star Game will be streamed on the ESEA Twitch channel, with the winning team taking home $1,000 per player while the losers are left with $250 apiece.
