Today Dignitas have confirmed a roster change that may surprise a few people. Eyebrows were raised when wholesale changes were made to the "classic" Dignitas line-up and in particular people questioned whether James "PEZ" Perrott could make the step up in quality.

Although they won SLAP #19 and looked a strong unit they did have a comparatively disappointing i38 event and many felt a roster change was inevitable.

The replacement for James is a player that most will know and is regularly hailed as one of the best in the world. Erik "HaZ" Holm has played for teams such as the Stockholm Magnetik CGS franchise, 4kings, Crack Clan and Vitriolic Gaming. He is no stranger to the players in this squad having played with three of them before in the Crack Clan incarnation and should slot into the team nicely.

Erik had the following to say about the move on team-dignitas.org:

I'm thrilled about joining Dignitas and I know from previous experience that we can achieve great things! Thanks to my former teammates and to Dignitas for giving me this opportunity.

There are some unanswered questions of course. What will James do now? And what of Blight Gaming, where Erik has purportedly come from? Cadred will bring you the answers as we have them.

Team Dignitas is now:

Sam "RattlesnK" Gawn
Thomas "beta" Hanna
James "Mx" Smale
Lewis "hughsy" Hughes
Erik "HaZ" Holm
