Rolen Andrei Gabriel "Skemberlu" Ong has been removed from Neon Esports active roster, according to Dota 2 Majors registration page. This removal comes few days after he joined the Philippines Dota 2 team. He previously played for Arcanys Gaming, Signify, Geek Fam -- to name a few before being recruited by Jacky "EternalEnvy" Mao to compLexity Gaming as their new carry in the post-TI8 shuffle period alongside Jingjun "Sneyking" Wu to complete the coL roster. Initially, he had trouble playing with the team as he was unable to procure his visa to the United States of America due to some issues. He soon joined coL at their gaming house following the approval of his visa and treated the viewers with some clutch performances. However, Skemberlu's period at coL was cut short as he came heavily under fire for his racist remarks against Chinese players in DreamLeague Minor Season 9. Shortly after, he was penalized by coL and removed from the team by the management. No official reason has been given as to Skem's removal from the team. There are no whereabouts on his future plans as of yet.
