I dont know is there enough evidence to connect R1a with Scythians Slavicizing I2a1b but for sure I2a1 got Slavicized over Carpathian mountains just like all Slavophone countries over there. They were Slavicized by some R1a dominant group of people.
Even TMRCA of 2400 years of I2a1b was most likely born as Slav.
Here is interesting article about some history and Slavicization also its interesting how Slavicization took over native Baltic languages. - http://erenow.com/ancient/thefalloft...istory/27.html
I2a - paleolithic Balkan
I2a1b Dinaric - Slavic
So simply for understand.

What's the percentage in Albania?Paleolithic or Dinaric?
Explanation for this is fairly simple. Population of Italy numbered around 10 millions on the beginning on new era. When Goths came, that number was considerably bigger. Theoderic gathered 20.000 warriors in total (he couldn't rally enough Goths (who preferred staying in western Balkans, Thrace, and Ukraine, according to Herwig Wolfram), so he had to fill his ranks with Gepids, Rugii, Alans, etc.), and when we add rest of those that went with him, it sums up to a maximum of 100.000. If you do a bit of calculating, you will see that Goths were just drop in water when compared to native Italian population. They numbered less than one percent of total population when they came, and when we consider what Procopious wrote about total massacre of Goths which occured in Italy (in constrast to province of Dalmatia, where he said many settled permanently after the war), then you clearly see that there is no way at all that they could have left any genetic impact.
