Lions will be using sNajdan and dennis for Dreamhack according to their manager. fnatic are also apparently interested in Gux.

Lions swe will be picking up former

players player

Mattias 'Snajdan' Andersen and

SK Gaming stand-in

Dennis 'dennis' Edman for Dreamhack Summer. The fragbite post announcing the move also found information indicating

fnatic is interested in acquiring

Rasmus 'GuX' Ståhl from Lions.

With threat missing Dreamhack it is likely sNajdan has been brought in to run the team as the in-game leader, since that is his well known speciality as a player. There has been no information so far on where this leaves keiz.

Lions swe Dreamhack lineup:

Emil 'FYRR73' Karlsson

Frej 'kHRYSTAL' Sjöström

Niklas 'niko' Johansson

Mattias 'Snajdan' Andersen

Dennis 'dennis' Edman

Kronquist, Lions manager, told fragbite:

"We have chosen to continue the search for players for the Lions and we have taken the further the ball to Dennis and Snajdan both of which were positive for the game."

He also addressed the potential of Gux moving to fnatic:

"Fnatic has shown an interest in Gux, more than that, I can not comment on today."

sNajdan's early career featured time in xPerience.se and GoL but without much success. He then moved to 4kings and helped them to 2nd at WEG S1. In 2005 sNajdan was added as the 5th man for the SK.swe lineup which featured four NiP players returning home. That team, led by sNajdan, went on to win back-to-back CPL titles that year.

dennis was a PlayZone.se player who was taken as a stand-in by SK for the IEM V World Championships, where the team placed 4th, and Xperia PLAY, where they finished runnersup.
