This also means that the team will now also has to announce their roster changes earlier than they would like, likely giving away their intentions and strategy for the Summer Tour.
The Likely Return

Miracle- took a break earlier at the start of the DPC 2022-2023 season due to his health issues. Even though neither he nor his team hasn’t officially disclosed further information about his health, his return could mean his condition has improved.
Nigma Galaxy currently has 0 DPC points to their name. Nigma Galaxy has also been losing some of its fans. But with the likely return of Miracle-, the team will be able to regain some fans back as he is a fan favourite. The team will also have to make a miracle run at The International 2023 qualifiers to earn their spot at The International 2023. Miracle- has also been grinding a lot on his smurf account. Fans are thrilled by the news and can't wait to see the return of their favourite player.
