So CLG might really just be nth's sponsor, judging from Sing's stream [scimming against nth atm]
Basicly nth was waiting for Envy to join the lobby and Akke offered to start the draft already, since they've been waiting for such a long time already. When he took the captainslot the teamname was also change to CLG [with logo and all that stuff]. Then they were saying some stuff about "Why put CLG there? Everyone will know!" and are playing with the logo now regardless. Either they are just trolling [Akke was on CLG before, so that's why he was able to enable the teamname & logo etc.] or they will really get picked up by CLG, which also would make sense.
Also all the arguments brought up in the past:
"CLG is sponsored by own3d and AdmiralBulldog and Loda already switched to Twitch earlier" -> Just like joinDOTA, I'm pretty sure that CLG were aware of own3d's situation and might have already suggested to switch to twitch. They easily could, as they weren't under any contract officially at that time I assume.
Envy saying: "We'll be moving to a teamhouse in early 2013" -> CLG had a teamhouse for their EU team, which signed with EG around a month ago. So that teamhouse is more or less empty now.
Don't know, but it kinda makes sense in my head. They were most likely trolling. EDIT: The organization apparently is new to Dota 2 as well, so CLG would simply not make sense. Watched Bulldog's stream once and his smurf account was appart of a CLG team according to his profile.
Really suprised they haven't announced their sponsor yet, what on earth could they be waiting for? Sponsor is kinda losing out on alot of advertisement.

How far do you think Valve will be able to go with announcers? Might be interesting to get a few voice actors in for some novelty announcers.

They had a Dota2 team [Loda, Akke, Miracle, Pinoy and Pajkatt - former xP] signed in February 2012, so I wouldn't say they are new to Dota2. Roster changes were done few times [Pinoy out, smullgullig in. Later on Loda, who was leaving to singapore & smullgullig, who had school obligations, out and Lacoste & Misery in] That roster also participated in TI2, but disbanded sometime after [roughly end of september / beginning of october 2012] with Misery & Pajkatt joining LGD.int. Akke now on nth together with Loda, Miracle almost officially in new aL, Lacoste rumored to start a team with Mitch, Buktop, Grizine+1

That's the point. IIRC NTH or another source said the sponsors were new to Dota 2 or even ESPORTS in general, so CLG wouldn't make much sense. If that is indeed true.
The need to keep it a secret would make more sense if that is indeed the case.

I wish that I could get Niklas Wikegård (Former Swedish ice hockey player and coach, now color commentator) as a Swedish announcer in the game.

Rumour is that it is Steelseries new thing (along the lines of Team Acer - one brand team)

Pretty good tho.
Oh and for me give me Cave Johnson. I would gladly pay 20€ for that!
