Following they're 5th place finish in the last EPS season, in which the team missed the playoffs by 3 points, there had been a flurry of rumors surrounding possible roster changes for the start of 2009.

Today it was made official that mTw has decided to part ways with members Max "ODIE" Knappe, Christopher "cash" Steen and Kim "vio" Schumann. Steen and Schumann had been part of the team since last January when the organization decided to create a solely German team to compete in EPS.

The replacements for the three departing players will be Sebastian "zorn" Weber, Knut-Ole "tronix" Mohr and Julian "hool" Walter. Weber comes from German team GAMED.de, while Morh and Walter are former members of Hardware4u and You Don't Know Me, respectively.

With the new trio, the mTw.de roster for 2009 now looks like:

Arnt-Peter "night" Schuldt
Dennis "rez0r" Bethke
Sebastian "zorn" Weber
Knut-Ole "tronix" Mohr
Julian "hool" Walter
