Former TI champion Peter “ppd” Dager announces his return to competitive Dota 2

In a surprising, yet exciting statement, the Dota 2 legendary player Peter "ppd" Dager announced his return to competitive Dota 2. In April 2020, he announced his retirement. However, it looks like the champion is making a comeback in this year's DPC.

It seems like Peter Dager cannot stay away from competitive Dota for too long. He is returning to the competitive Dota 2 scene, alongside his former teammate and TI-champions, Clinton “Fear” Loomis. The two of them will be playing for the new Sandboys lineup. 

The decision Peter Dager took to entire retirement was something of a personal choice. He decided to focus on his personal growth for a while, over competing with players across the world. But, it is hard for competitive players to stay away from the Dota 2 fever. 

With some new features being added to heroes like Shards & new neutral items, many felt it was only a matter of time before the legendary former TI-champion makes his comeback to the professional scene. 

Peter "ppd" Dager, in a blog post, announced why he was coming back from retirement. Fans were absolutely overjoyed to hear this news, and have reached out to express their wishes to him.
