Earlier this week, it was speculated that Ioannis 'Fogged' Loucas had departed Team Dog. Today, we received information that he will be joining a new American squad, North American Rejects, to participate in the ongoing season of American Dota League.
After the creation of Sneaky Nyx Assassins by Brian 'FLUFFNSTUFF' Lee and Michael 'ixmike88' Ghannam, another challenger appears in the battle for the throne of North American DotA2. The new squad, with the alias 'North American Rejects' will be joining the ongoing American Dota League season two, as the ninth participant of Group B.
North American Rejects roster :
Ioannis 'Fogged' Loucas (previous squads : Evil Geniuses, Dignitas, Team Dog)
Braxton 'Brax' Paulson (previous squads : LGD.int, Quantic)
Theeban '1437' Siva (previous squads : Dignitas, LGD.int, Quantic, Mousesports)
Jingjun 'Sneyking' Wu (previous squads : Dignitas, Super Strong Dinosaurs)
Steven 'Korok' Ashworth (previous squads : Dignitas, Liquid, Quantic)
Allan 'Dismek' Garcia
The members of NAR are no strangers to the competitive scene, being former members of major North American squads. The only exception is Dismek, who is mostly known from his streams. The six-man squad seems very strong on paper and it remains to be seen whether they possess the required chemistry to succeed.
The first matches of the new team are scheduled for Monday, April 14th. They will be facing Osiris Gaming and The House is Down, starting at 4 PM PDT (1 AM CEST). The top four teams of Group B will advance to the playoffs of American Dota League. For more information about the upcoming tournament, check our coverage hub.
