It's an unexpected return, to say the least. Sources have confirmed to Sheep Esports that former TSM Academy midlaner Jackson “KatEvolved” Dohan is set to compete in an ERL team for the 2025 season. While the NLC has enjoyed a surge in popularity thanks to high-profile and seasoned players joining its ranks, the Prime League—representing the DACH region—is making moves to keep pace.

Indeed, according to our sources, KatEvolved is set to join the newly formed team by Muhammed “Agurin” Kocak for the upcoming Prime League season. The "world’s best Katarina player", according to his X bio, KatEvolved had decided to focus on streaming after spending a single season in the LCS Academy League back in 2020. However, the Canadian midlaner, who was among the best in his position during his tenure in North America's second division, admitted a year later that he regretted this decision.

Not an OTP?

KatEvolved is crossing the Atlantic to reignite a promising chapter in his career. He began grinding European Solo Queue in late November and achieved Challenger rank in just nine days—a remarkable feat highlighted by a 75% win rate with Katarina and an astounding 91% with Akali. While this level of success is impressive, it’s far from surprising given his history of reaching rank 1 in North America. Adding to his accolades, the midlaner also climbed to Challenger on the highly competitive South Korean server, notably without relying on his signature champion, Katarina.

KatEvolved is now the third reported player on Agurin's roster, joining the jungler himself and the AD Carry Nihat “Innaxe” Aliev, who will fill the position initially intended for Jona “Reptile” Fritz, as previously reported by Sheep Esports.

As a reminder, Agurin was formerly part of NNO Prime, a team that relinquished its spot in the Prime League for the upcoming season. The jungler has opted to retain the slot to assemble a new roster around himself. The name of the team remains undisclosed, and two positions—toplane and support—are yet to be reported.
