Dota 2: Alliance annuncia la nuova squadra per l’imminente stagione del DPC
Alliance svela una nuova formazione con alcuni nomi inediti e dei ritorni a sorpresa.
Esattamente una settimana fa Alliance perdeva tutti i giocatori della sua squadra di Dota 2. Era una formazione di giovani atleti cresciuti molto nel corso del biennio speso all’interno dell’organizzazione svedese che era giunta addirittura a disputare il main event del The International 2019.
Il tempismo di questo addio non è stato dei migliori. Il management di Alliance si è ritrovato il 28 settembre, termine ultimo per registrare una squadra per la nuova stagione del Dota Pro Circuit, senza nemmeno un giocatore a disposizione.
Tuttavia, tra le squadre che erano riuscite a registrarsi per la stagione 2019/2020 del DPC c’era il Cool Team. Questo progetto nato da due ex Ninjas in Pyjamas (33 e Fata) a cui si erano uniti due giocatori svedesi ex Alliance (Limmp e Handsken) e la rivelazione bulgara del TI9 Nikobaby era riuscito a ottenere un invito diretto per le closed qualifier del primo major (e minor) della stagione.
Oggi, a due giorni dall’inizio delle partite del torneo di qualificazione e in seguito al comunicato di ieri del Team Liquid, Alliance ha annunciato di aver accolto tra le sue file i membri del Cool Team. Questi giocatori vestiranno quindi i colori di Alliance nel corso dell’imminente stagione professionistica di Dota 2.

Questa è la nuova formazione degli Alliance:
- Nikolay “Nikobaby” Nikolov
- Linus “Limmp” Blomdin
- Neta “33” Shapira
- Simon “Handsken” Haag
- Adrian “Fata” Trinks
Vediamo ora i commenti dei protagonisti.
Il capitano della squadra Fata è sicuramente entusiasta di questa nuova sfida:
“I am looking forward to represent Alliance in the upcoming season. Transitioning to position 5 as well as captaining the team is a definitely new chapter for me, and I’m very excited to see how it will go. As a team, we will practice hard to perform this season and bring positive results to all of our fans – new and old.”
“Alliance has been a big inspiration for me ever since the TI3 era. Last year I was really close to signing with them but it didn’t work out in the end. It actually motivated me even harder and I was very hungry to prove myself as a player. I got the chance to play for Mineski at TI and I learned a lot, especially from Mushi.
After a successful summer in SEA I wanted to continue my career back in Europe, and started playing with Fata and 33. Shortly after, we got contacted by Loda to represent Alliance, and I felt that it became a full circle. Our goal is nothing else but to win TI10 with Alliance, we will do our best to make the fans proud”
“The day it was clear I had to look around for a new DotA 2 squad for Alliance, it was obvious to me that I should contact Nikobaby. When I found out that he had been in talks with Fata, 33, Handsken and Limmp about making a team together, I was intrigued.
Fata needs no real introduction: He is a veteran player with tons of experience and a very sharp mind. He is a natural born leader and a hard worker. 33 is a player I respect a lot. He is a calm guy with a unique playstyle. Handsken and Limmp are both players that have played with Alliance before. Both are players that have improved immensely since their time with us, but more than that I know that they are tired of being at the sideline. I’m happy and proud to be able to play a part in these two players reunion. A new chapter of Alliance Dota 2 begins today. It won’t be easy, but we are no strangers to hard work. Finally I just want to thank all of you out there that make this possible. We’ll see you at TI10 😉”
