It was confirmed today that Akke quit SK.DotA because of his studies, which he would focus on from now on, after taking half a year break.

This might come as a shock for some, but for those who have been watching the latest SK matches, know that Akke has not been present in most of them for quite a long time and that he had become more and more inactive. SK caught up with Akke for an interview about his departure with the team and his future plans and here is a snippet of it.

Akke: "Last year I started university but decided to make a break and wait a year to chill and play DotA and just have fun, travel (which we did to Russia, France and USA) and then start to study again.

I have been trying to keep up both but it's hard to study that much that I have to do and still be in a top team like SK, so I have taken the decision to step down and let someone else take my place. We all will be still very good friends so we will see what happens in the future if my studies fail :D."

With the depature of Akke, the SK lineup is down to 5 players

Jonathan 'Loda' Berg (Leader)
Tommy 'toMpa' Andersson
Mikael 'Hailo' Grinsvall
Edwin 'KwoM' Börjesson
Erik 'zoN-' Falk (Substitute)
