After going from a seemingly casual team to a formidable force, Team Dog have surprised a large majority of the community, especially after the acquisition of de Adrian 'Fata' Trinks and de Pascal 'Pas' Lohmeier from Team Sigma. Now the players finally found a real home and we can dispense with the woof woof jokes. Mousesports is reborn.

Despite a bumpy start to their life as professional the former Team Dog look on track to become a solid European-based team, especially after qualifying themselves for the ESL One finals in Frankfurt next month. Mousesports - who fielded teams at both TI2 and TI3, dissolved their last DOTA2 squad in January of this year after struggling to find a stable roster. With Team Dog finally finishing their line-up and ceasing to continue their stand-in cameos from players such as ua XBOCT, de exist and us Mason, they should allow Mousesports' resurgence to be more than just a flash in the pan.

In an interview posted on ESL earlier today, MSS spoke out about the strengths of the team Mousesports has just welcomed into their family. "We’re willing to get better at any cost. I think Pajkatt and MiSeRy’s time in China really helped establish the work ethic they have now," said Arif “MSS” Anwar. "They really want to get stuff done. They want to get better. Another thing I really like about this team is that they hype things up in game. Like when we get a kill, they start screaming and it helps boost our morale. It wasn’t really a thing I experienced before in other teams."

MiSeRy and Fata both issued statements about their new team:

"After quite a lot of sponsor meetings with various organisations, we finally found the one that suits us the best. The team and I are excited to announce that we are signing with mousesports and it's sponsors BenQ, EpicGear and XMG. We will kickstart the relationship with a bootcamp in Berlin for TI4 qualifiers. The dogs has become mice. #MeowMeow"

"I am proud to announce that Team Dog is now officially joining mousesports. After a period of looking for the most appropriate sponsor we seem to have found our perfect fit. Personally, I am glad to be back and I am looking forward to respresenting mouz on the international stage again, hopefully with a lot of victories after our bootcamp in Berlin. Special thanks to BenQ, EpicGear and XMG for the great support!"

Mousesports will be competing in the upcoming TI4 European qualifiers, as well as attending DreamHack Summer 2014 and ESL One Frankfurt in June.
