Joakim "'''Akke'''" Akterhall is a [[smasher]] from Sweden who is a three-time Swedish national Nintendo champion (2000, 2006 and 2012) as well as a three-time runner-up and currently a member of [[Alliance]]'s ''Dota 2'' team.
Joakim '''Akke''' Akterhall is a [[smasher]] from Sweden who is known for his pro exploits in ''DotA 2''. He is a three-time Swedish national Nintendo champion (in 2002, 2006 and 2012) who was introduced to ''DotA'' in 2005 by a high school classmate named Jonathan Berg (Loda) - who is currently his teammate as Alliance's carry.


Despite not being a full-time smasher, he competed at [[Smashers' Reunion: Melee Grande]] in Norway and took 5th place in the doubles tournament using Sheik alongside Ek. He later joined [[Alliance]] when they signed his all-Swedish ''Dota'' team, No Tidehunter, as part of its original lineup, and the team then won The International 3 without losing a series. He returned to competitive ''Melee'' in 2015 at [[B.E.A.S.T 5]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1vJ1_-kTVY B.E.A.S.T. 5 Pools - Alliance Akke (Sheik) vs. JudÄ (Sheik/Marth)] VGBootCamp on YouTube</ref>
Before competing at The International II with CLG, he competed at [[Smashers' Reunion: Melee Grande]] in Norway and took 5th place in the doubles tournament using Sheik alongside Ek despite not being a full-time smasher. After TI2, he joined No Tidehunter alongside Loda, Henrik Ahnberg (AdmiralBulldog) and Gustav Magnusson (S4). Together with Jerry Lundqvist (EGM), who they picked up in 2013, they formed the 5-man No Tidehunter team that was signed by [[Alliance]] as part of its original lineup and then won The International III without losing a series.


When Alliance officially opened a ''Smash'' division by signing {{sm|Armada}}, he posted on his Twitter account a welcome on behalf of the ''Dota'' team.<ref>[https://twitter.com/FollowAkke/status/530444090392190978 @FollowAkke: "Happy to say I now play for the same organization as @ArmadaUGS, welcome to the family!
