The roster of Tundra Esports for The International 2025:

- Bzm
- 33
- Saksa
- Tobi
- MoonMeander (coach)
Tobi has already played for Tundra Esports from March to April 2024 in the third position along with Topson, Pure, 9Class and Whitemon, but was excluded from the roster due to a conflict. He was replaced by RAMZES666, with whom the team took 3rd place at The International 2025.
At the beginning of 2025, Tobi changed roles, moving to position five. In June, he played for BanyaPivoSamogon in the open qualifiers for The International 2025, but the team could not qualify even for the closed qualifiers. In July, Tobi temporarily replaced iNSaNiA in Team Liquid, becoming the champion of FISSURE Universe: Episode 5, and later performed in the group stage at PGL Wallachia Season 5.
iNSaNiA spoke positively about Tobi, and during the Esports World Cup 2025 iNSaNiA took Tobi as a personal coach:
"The guys trained with Tobi, I wasn't at the bootcamp. He replaced me brilliantly at PGL Wallachia Season 5. I had to watch his replays and learn to play like him."
The International 2025 will take place from September 4 to 14 in Hamburg, Germany. At the moment, the tournament's prize pool is 2.3 million dollars.
