These renowned sources are wrong, see the extra info I added to my comment.

I am related to only one Albanian(a Kosovar) out of all these people on there.
But I still can't quite figure out how to search for those I2 on DNA tools. Can see them on Gedmatch, and they are all only Anglos etc...
yeah weird mine too. of the ones i found manually at least.
I never said it formed in the Balkans, I just said it was indigenous European - my guess would be I2a1 was driven to the Balkans by Indo-European invasions until they hit the Adriatic Sea, at which point they mixed with the mostly R1a invaders. Show me evidence proto-Slavs contained a non-insignificant amount of Y DNA I2a1 - then I'll stfu.
Even the haplotard site Eupedia says the same about I2a1b-Din:
of I2a-L621, while southern Slavs have between 20% (Bulgaria) and 50% (Bosnia). The higher percentage of I2a-Din in the south is probably just due to another founder effect due to the fact that the South Slavs originated in western Ukraine, where the ratio of I2a to R1a was higher. Virtually all Dinaric I2a falls under the CTS10228 (aka CTS5966 or L147.2) subclade, and the majority to the S17250 ramification, who descend from a common patrilinear ancestor who lived only 1,800 years ago.
