Kaipi have today announced that they will saying goodbye to 
Ionut 'ArisE' Turtoi as well as captain Andrei 'Zizou' Zisu. With this move, the role of captain will fall to 
Jacky 'EternaLEnVy' Mao.
Look at my hair, my hair is amazing... Yes it is Alex, yes it is...
In place of mid player ArisE the team will be picking up
Artour 'Arteezy' Babaev, one of the great promises of the North American scene who has been held up by several of his peers, most prominantly 
Sam 'Bulba' Sosale of Team Liquid, as a player who is sure to go far. This will be Arteezy's first chance to show off his skills in competitive Dota 2.The second addition is a perennial stand-in for the team,
Alexandru 'ComeWithMe' Craciunescu, who many will remember from his time with Mousesports and before that with the Romanian team Poor Happy Guys, who became the first Dota 2 squad of Team Dignitas. ComeWithMe will be once more taking up the role of support, as he replaces his former Dignitas teammate Zizou.Statements from the team
Jacky 'EternaLEnVy' Mao gave the following statement to GGnet earlier today:CWM is an experienced support player and is a great addition to the team. He brings swift action in scrims as he is very aggressive and constantly creates oppurtunities for kills.
I've been good friends with Arteezy for almost a year now. He's very young but one of the rising hopes for NA DotA. You guys will see what he can truly do.

And the following statement was given by
Alexandru 'ComeWithMe' Craciunescu, also to GGnet:Well, i've spoke to bOne7 about this possible mix up quite a while ago, he was pretty pleased with his team and said he would take a decision after G1 Qualifiers so he can make sure he takes the best decision possible. After the early loss in the G1, we spoke more about it and current team is the result. I think is great, we've had a strong perfromance from the very first scrims with nice synergy and a very pleasant and lovely atmosphere... I at least like how things are a lot right now!
Also,
Sam 'Bulba' Sosale wanted to say a few words of encouragement to his friend Arteezy:Arteezy is really one of the most skilled players I know. He has little experience competitively but everyone that plays with him senses his potential. Envy is a smart player and can also sense the potential in someone similiar to his prediction of s4 becoming the 'best european player'. I can safely predict that Arteezy will become one of the best players that the West has ever seen. He is like a budding rose in a field full of dead weeds. Envy can say that he invented s4. I will say that Arteezy is my invention. s4's Jango Fett but Arteezy's Boba Fett!
