The German team failed to impress in the EPS season, having finished in ninth place with twenty-one points achieved, ten points away from the LAN places.

From the old team, only Burak "coLLy" Dogramaci remains, as a-Losers has decided to part company with all the other players by allowing them to open negotiations with other squads.

To complete the team, a-Losers opened talks with Oliver "HUNTi" Velevski and Hannes "Hanso" Dunkel from starComa and Thomas "uLTi" Teissl and Nils "bara" Waldowski from mTw.

Although there were several organisations interested in this team, Dunkel stated that a-Losers beat off rivals by presenting the best offer.

"After Northcon, we had to choose for a team - there were three good offers. The choice fell on a-Losers, since they probably have the best conditions," he told a-Losers' official website.

This move leaves a-Losers with the following roster:

Burak "coLLy" Dogramaci
Oliver "HUNTi" Velevski
Hannes "Hanso" Dunkel
Nils "bara" Waldowski
Thomas "uLTi" Teissl
