Vor vier Tagen berichteten wir, dass die schwedische Organisation Alliance vor dem Einstieg in die Hearthstone-Szene stehen soll. Nun wurde dies offiziell seitens Alliance bestätigt. Auf ihrer Internetpräsenz und via Twitter wurde die Verpflichtung von Jon ‚Orange‘ Westberg als erster Spieler der neuen Hearhtstone-Division bekanntgegeben. Seinen ersten Auftritt im neuen Gewand hat der Schwede bereits am Wochenende während der Gigacon in Norwegen.
Statement Erik Barge (General Manager):
I’ve had my eye on Jon for quite a while now, even before he took first place in ESL Katowice one and a half year ago, and I’ve always been impressed with both his technique and professional mentality toward the game. In addition he’s also one of the most consistent players which, in a game like Hearthstone, is far more impressive than a single first place victory. I believe Jon is a perfect fit in Alliance and I’m very happy to have him represent the Alliance brand as our first Hearthstone player.
Statement Jon ‚Orange‘ Westberg:
I couldn’t be happier to announce that I will be a part of Alliance. It’s truly an honor that Alliance have chosen me to start up their Hearthstone division and I am giving my all to make sure they won’t regret the decision. So far the interactions I’ve had with everyone on the team have been amazing and I immediately recognize what people mean when they talk about the „Alliance-family“. For me this means that I will be able to focus on playing competitive Hearthstone and focus on my true love and passion. For you reading this it means that I will be able to stream more consistently and also I will start uploading vlogs of the events I go to together with the launch of a brand new YouYube-channel. I couldn’t be more excited to start this new journey with Alliance and get to know everyone on the team as well as all the fans.
