On March 1st, Vici signed ZSMJ, who built a Dota 2 squad. They were focused on the original DotA, although they have since expanded to Dota 2. The rest of the team consisted of xiaotuji, Maybe, nL_Ks, and Q. On January 28th, Vici signed the team Greedy, captained by the famous YaphetS as their online/backup squad.
The team qualified for the 2012 G-League Season 2 by beating Noah's Ark in the preliminaries. Notably, their mid lane player “ Cty” had shown promise by winning a 1v1 tournament organized by 2009, in which he beat famous players like Ferrari_430, Sylar, Hao, and other top Chinese players shortly before getting recruited. The players had no previous professional experience at the time with the exception of sydm who had played under the banner of TyLoo. Vici Gaming was formed on October 21st, 2012 with the help of “Fengdidi”, who also had previously played in PanDarea Gaming under the name “ PanPan”, handpicking highly skilled players that were highly ranked on the Chinese DotA ladder at the time.
