Hey guys!


As I told you yesterday Ryan left the team and we were searching for a new support player.
I am pretty happy to tell you that we already found one to trial with today.
Long who played as a stand-in for us already will join us to trial for the next few practices.
He is a friend of Robin and therefore also Swedish BUT has Chinese roots.
Yes! We did find a Chinese!
This means we will head right for TI3 now as we basically own the whole Chinese scene all together.

Anyway..All (not even funny) jokes aside.
I am happy to welcome Long aka BakaNep to our team and we all hope for great synergy between us so we can get right back on track to Dreamhack Winter 2013 and to our success.
Unfortunately Chippy was missing today so we just played some pub games (and got owned by a combination of Nyx,Drow,KOTL,PL) and got to know each other a bit more.

If everything works out we will play our first TMM games with the new team tomorrow and hopefully see some improvement in the tri-lane and also overall communication.

I am quite short on time today so this has to be it for today's blog but I am pretty sure I will have a lot to say after tomorrow's practice so keep your eyes opened and look for my blog entry tomorrow!

NoLuck out!

Any reason Ryan left? I didn't see your blog, did you explain it there?
EDIT: Saw the reason, is the switch from 3-4 that large? I don't play DotA much at all.
User was warned for too many mimes.

Well it largely depends on how you play the 3 role.
For example I like to play a very aggressive and ganking heavy 3 who also gets some carry items.
Others like to just stack ancients and basically just exist becase for their ulti.
Ryan was one of the more aggressive off-laners too so he had a lot of problems with not being able to decide fights on his own.
This is really why playing support is so hard and important:

You need to take part and decide fights with a massive deficit of items ans levels.
