Due to one member from the current MYM DotA squad who is unable to make the trip to Paris, MYM have found an ideal replacement in 13abyknight who will play in the name of the Makers for ESWC.
Croatia Dominik 'Lacoste' Stipic, MYM's only foreign player from Croatia, has impressed since joining the ranks of the Makers since his highly anticipated move from Tribal.Int early this year, along with Denmark Amel 'PlaymatE' Barudzija. However, due to a series of unfortunate events Lacoste will be unable to make the final trip to ESWC this year with the team, citing work commitments as the main reason why he will not be able to attend his first major event under the MYM flag.
While Lacoste's absence might be seen as a major blow to the squad's title ambitions for ESWC, MYM have arguably found the best possible replacement in Denmark Jon '13abyknight' Andersen. Touted as one of the best carries in European DotA, 13abyknight is none other than the star player of his own team Europe Online Kingdom, where he led the team to countless victories including being crowned champions of the European DotA Championships. Being of Danish descent, he will undoubtedly fit in well with the rest of the players and this now makes Denmark MYM.DotA going into the event a full danish lineup.
In addition, it should be noted that 13abyknight will only join on a temporary basis for the duration of the tournament, after which he will return to the Online Kingdom. myMYM would like to take this opportunity to thank the OK management and team for their graciousness in allowing us to use 13abyknight as a last stand-in for ESWC. With the lineup now made official, the MYM.DotA squad will be looking forward to putting in their best performances for the most prestigious DotA event of the year.
Below contains statements from 13abyknight and Maelk regarding the former's last minute additon to the squad for the event.
