Athero & scHwimpi transfer to Fnatic

Today we make the second change to our Heroes of the Storm team after its second place at Heroes World Championship at BlizzCon. With the 2016 season shaping up, our players Lawrence 'Athero' Harper and Simon 'scHwimpi' Svensson expressed their interest to play on the Fnatic roster with their friends. 

After negotiations with Fnatic over the buyout of our two players, both teams agreed on an undisclosed fee, resulting in the transfer of Athero and scHwimpi to Fnatic. We respect their decisions and wish both all the best in their careers.

The Team Dignitas Heroes lineup has not been idle in the meantime and we will soon make our final call on what our roster will look like going into the 2016 season. We still have our eyes firmly set on qualifying for the European Regionals in Katowice and subsequently the Spring Global Championship in Seoul.

 

DIG Bakery, Heroes team-captain:

"Losing scHwimpi and Athero is a big blow but as we showed on Saturday, we can still compete with the top teams. I will be working harder than ever to bring you an even stronger Team Dignitas lineup than before, and every player on the team will do everything they can to make it to the Global Championship in Seoul. Best wishes to scHwimpi and Athero, and I hope to see them in Korea."
