Dota: Traspasos y fichajes 2015/2016

Teammate from old times could be anyone he played with in HoN, but it can be narrowed down pretty much to the DotA 2 Fnatic teammates seeing as all the other HoN guys aren't good enough in DotA to be a part of a top tier team, even if they were actively playing DotA (aka probably not Fresh, NoVa, or others like that).

Era is confirmed with his stable all-Swede NiP lineup. Trixi is more-or-less confirmed with his stable all-Finnish 4ASC lineup (they have also played as 5 in some online cup tournaments since TI5, and looked on form, so I think they won't shuffle). So you can pretty much rule out Era/Trixi 99-100%.

H4nn1 and Fly are comparable in likelihood to me, both having their reasons that make them unlikely. Fly bonded with and far exceeded expectations with coL and I'm not sure if he would be that much in need of a new team, though it's possible. H4nn1 basically retired to be a caster/analyst, but it's hard to read his actual direction right now, he seems to be pretty involved at the moment, in contact with lots of players and involved with TI5, so again, large counterargument, but it's a slim chance that he could be the old teammate as well.

If "from old times" wasn't that clear or means something different, then maybe it's none of the Fnatic guys. Xcalibur is a very slim possibility, he was a very brief teammate and not really "old", but maybe worth mentioning.

"Enemy from older times" sounds like it has to mean older than the old teammate, which goes back a long way (N0tail and Fly (then Bot) started pretty early in HoN's scene with iLx back with the first trilanes (Panda) and most people don't remember who was playing this far back). There aren't really that many really old enemies, I don't think someone like Mynuts, S4, or Chessie would be old enough in HoN for this criteria. Moonmeander also isn't old enough in HoN, at least the pro scene, and there's only a limited chance that he would leave coL after a rollercoaster year with them that ended in success. Loda and Akke actually had pretty early HoN teams with Druidz, but I'm sure they are out of the question and will be with Alliance. There are a good number of NA players still around from back then, like Fogged, Bdiz, Bkid, Testie (probably not good enough now), not Chu (plays HotS), or even Tralf (prob not old enough) to name just a few, but I highly doubt this team has an NA player, probably will be all EU. Same unlikeliness goes for old SEA HoN players like Slickz and Dabeliuteef.

There aren't many other EU HoN players from the really olden days who are still active or good in DotA 2. Mag1x, Kebap, LevenT, not Overpow (since he plays LoL), Strangby, Giftig, Kay, Rexi, LolQop, Semijew, Buch (if he left Spin2Win), Sing (probably has another team), that's all I can recall, and none seem very likely at all.

The fellow Dane doesn't have many possibilities obviously. Can't be Misery, already confirmed on Secret. 100% no way for Maelk. 99% no way for Synderen. Very unlikely Slasher would appear on any team. Almost certainly one of the less-popular Danes, many of them from the more recent MYM - list includes Miggel, Ace, Ryze, Link, Mania, Unicorn, Solen, BabyKnight, Biver, Hestejoe, Crit (possibly on Alliance already).

The "newblood carry" has been hinted by others and possibly by Envy's tweet as the 8k player Miracle, I don't have any ideas beyond that as there's a lot of possible newblood but he's the only one who has been pointed to.

Iceiceice has been brought up a lot due to series of tweets, but I think it's just friendly joking. I could be wrong though, more shocking things have happened.

L Y E ? ? Hint from Envy in the same style that correctly stated the last letters of each player's name on Secret, which suggests 3 of the 5 players. Obvious precedent to be correct, though it's not guaranteed to be true. L seems like N0tail, Y could be Fly or someone else (Kuroky also fits the Y, but has been repeatedly rumored to be making his own team, probably based around German players, and maybe isn't an "old" enough teammate), E is possibly Miracle or another player, and the ? ? should be two who were at that time undetermined.

Envy made another post suggesting that he thinks coL will shuffle (though his reasoning is questionable) - but he also says he guesses BabyKnight and Kuroky on the team. However, it sounds like he is speculating without knowing for sure.
