DreamTeam, a team present on several games, just announced that his new League of Legends team will be part of the NA Challenger Series. Ram "Brokenshard" Djemal will be back as a head coach, the rest of team is made of Andy "Chorong" Hoang as toplaner, Shern "Shernfire" Tai in the jungle, Isaax "Pekin Woof" Marconis as midlaner and Giedris "Double G" Dagys as AD carry. The support of the team will be revealed in an upcoming announcement.
Several questions came to our mind concerning this team, so we decided to ask some questions to Brokenshard.
First of all, congratz for your new team ! Did you already begin the work with the players ?
Borkenshard : Thank you very much! I have only just started working with the players in scrims and have already started developing a practice regiment and supporting staff to compete in the series.
What are your goals in Season 6 ? Spring and Summer.
Borkenshard : Intially, we were planning not to compete in the spring split and try to develop a powerful roster for the summer, however we saw an oppurtunity to work with the former astral authority roster. The current spring split is very stacked, and it will be incredibly competitive. Our goals in spring are to establish a regiment and practice schedule, work out the initial problems a team may have and try to grind through the challenger series. In summer, that is where we hope to make all the necessary changes to make it to LCS.
Why did you choose to stay in NA ? You seemed to be pretty sad when u leave Europe.
Borkenshard : To be completely honest, I recieved offers for both EU and NA. NA simply had a better future for me, and not just NA, I find myself attached to the views and goals that Dreamteam have. I like the management, I trust the organisation to give me the authority to mold a squad to my liking.
I know it's a bit early but which teams, in your opinion, have the best shots to be on the top at the end of the spring split ?
Borkenshard : The current NA challenger series is very stacked, TDK and Apex look very strong. I think that TDK will get 1st and Apex will get 2nd, where the 3rd and 4th spot will be between the other 4 teams. First in spring would be VERY difficult for us, realistically speaking, but we will try our best to perform as best we can.
Troll Question, EU > NA ?
Borkenshard : EU always > NA : )
