Update: Akke just released a blog explaining the changes being made. He says that the team "worked quite well" but after realizing that EGM on the offlane would not work out they had to replace Mynuts.

Joakim 'Akke' Akterhall of Alliance tweeted earlier today that Johan 'Mynuts' Andersson is out of Alliance and is being replaced by Niclas 'Niqua' Westergård on the offlane. He explained that this is to make room for Jerry 'EGM' Lundqvist to play as a support rather than the offlaner.



This is the latest in a long series of roster changes from Alliance who have struggled to keep a stable roster ever since their early departure from The International 2014. Gustav 'S4' Magnusson and EGM left the team while Henrik 'AdmiralBulldog' Ahnberg decided to go on a break from competitive Dota 2 to focus on streaming.

With recent results not going the way of the all Swedish roster their chances for a direct invite for The International 2015 must be seen as slim, and they may instead have to focus their efforts into going through the qualifiers to attend the event.



Team Alliance:



Jonathan 'Loda' Berg

Per Anders Olsson 'Pajkatt' Lille (Captain)

Jerry 'EGM' Lundkvist

Niclas 'Niqua' Westergård

Joakim 'Akke' Akterhall

Julmust Profile Joined November 2008 Sweden 2183 Posts #3 Yeah it's a good move from Alliance. Even though Mynuts played a great lion I feel like EGM has a bigger hero pool right now.



Tbh Alliance really need to shape up. Right now I don't even see them winning (or coming in second) in the TI qualifiers. Assuming Valve uses the same system as last year. Administrator I'm dancing in the moonlight

Noogie Profile Joined September 2010 Canada 40 Posts #4 I agree....Mynuts played quite decently and I wish him well in the future. And more importantly the jokes with his name. Well now how are we going to get through pauses without them.

It has been confirmed multiple times that Bulldog wont be playing with them for the foreseeable future, and Chessie is still dealing with his back problems.

on a serious note: what does this mean for bulldog and alliance? I doubt he can get a TI invite with them at this point if he continues to be on "break". I’ll have the spaghetti. With a side salad. If the salad is on top, I send it back.

Sounds pretty good to me. It's like old Alliance with Pajkatt instead of s4. mostly harmless
