After winning DreamHack 2011, many said it was a matter of time before they were picked up by sponsors. Today, Mortal Team Work announced on their website their acquisition of the Wild Honey Badgers.
Considered underdogs at DreamHack, even having to enter the finals via the qualifiers, they did not lose a single match on their way to beating Fnatic in the finals. Having also showed certainly solid performances in "The Defense", this sponsorship should come as no surprise to many.
"I am thrilled that mTw have decided to enter the world of Dota 2, and honored to be the captain of the squad representing the organisation; there is no organisation I would rather play for! The mTw tag has a history of excellence and professionalism, and as a Dane, I feel a particular legacy connected to this tag from the old Danish mTw.CS squad. I will do whatever is possible in order for our team to continue the high standards which are connected to the name."
mTw Roster:
Troels "SyndereN" Nielsen
Petter 'pepp3' Nyström
Sebastian 'Matrim' Sundström
Björn 'Kuronity' Forsberg
Rickard 'Grunt / SeaBadger' Vuolikainen
