Team Dignitas replaces Wubby

Team Dignitas released a statement explaining their reasoning for replacing Wubby with ex-Na'Vi team captain Alexander 'AlexTheProG' Grumstrup.

In an unexpected turn of events Team Dignitas released a statement Wednesday, in which they noted "it is not often that a winning team makes changes, but when they do, there has to be very good reasons to do so."

In the statement, Dignitas names former Na'Vi team captain AlexTheProG as the replacement for Wubby, after Na'Vi disbanded their Heroes of the Storm team last week.

It is our declared goal to challenge the Asian Heroes world elite at the upcoming Summer Globals at Dreamhack Summer. Unfortunately since our Katowice victory, his team mates felt Wubby no longer shared their motivation and drive to reach this goal.”

Dignitas currently has a commanding lead over the European region after they went undefeated at the first Summer Regional. By stomping some of the best EU teams at the first regional they became the first team to qualify for the Summer Global Championship at DreamHack: Tours, which is why it's unusual to see roster changes happening.

Like every western team, Dignitas fell short in the Spring Global Championship, and they hope that this roster change will give them a chance at tackling the Chinese and Korean teams.

We firmly believe that with Alex in our ranks, we will be the best possible team in Sweden, and we hope our fans understand and support our decision.”
