In the past the largest moves would be a team or two joining a rival clan. A move of this magnitude is unprecedented, specially when most of these players have been part of TechMorph for at least four years.
The reason for this, following what seems to be a common trend, was a dispute between clan admins (in TechMorph) and the players. Certain decisions made by such admins amounted to “disrespectful” towards long standing and valuable members. There was also a lack of support is what Durendra ‘saku?’ Wijesuriya had to say.
He went on to say that Noob Alliance was chosen simply because they knew members there.
When we reached out to nA for a statement they had this to say:
“We are thrilled to welcome the new players for COD4 and DOTA 2 coming through from TechMorph. We hope to provide these talented esports athletes the tools and environment to reach their potential. Moving forward these players will surely be ones to look out for.”
TechMorph had the following to say when we reached out for a statement:
“Player transfers have been happening for a long time in almost every clan, and TM has been like a training school in a certain way. lol. We respect their decisions whether they like to stay in the clan or move to another. We have a lot of loyal members who have been around through the good times and the bad, and we will continue to push forward.”
