Edit: Team Alternate has released their official statement regarding Lückmann 's departure. Adrian "Kerp" Wetekam will be Alternate's temporary mid laner for the Battle of the Atlantic tournament, with Kevin "Kev1n" Rubiszewski playing in the top lane. The original story is below.

Season 4 of the LCS isn't here quite yet, so the roster changes keep coming. Carl 'ForellenLord' Lückmann announced today he was replaced on Team Alternate, but neither party has said who has, or would, take his place.

"There are some reasons, some I'd agree to, some I definitely do not agree," Lückmann stated on Facebook. "Overall a lot of misunderstanding, different dedication and too less goodwill to fix the issues."

Lückmann went on to list a few things that led to a change in the team atmosphere, including Jakub 'Creaton' Grzegorzewski breaking his hand, less trust on the team, and less dedication. He said Team Alternate made it into the playoffs last season in a "not deserved way."

Lückmann did drop a small hint about who his replacement will be before saying he would return back to his roots in soloqueue.

"In the later days of November my team informed me they think about replacing me. My journey has ended in the team.

"I wish my team The best luck and fun in the next season with their famous new guy."
