Veteran Player Huhi Eyed by NRG for LCS 2024 Boost
As the official start of the League of Legends competitive offseason draws near, rumors and reports about potential player transfers and team changes have been circulating within the esports community. With many players’ contracts set to expire on November 21, anticipation is high for significant roster adjustments across leagues worldwide.
In a breaking development, it has been reported that veteran player Choi “huhi” Jae-hyun is poised to leave the Golden Guardians squad to join NRG for the upcoming LCS 2024 season.
Huhi’s journey in the LCS
Choi “huhi” Jae-hyun, a 28-year-old South Korean/French player, has been a prominent figure in the League of Legends Championship Series (LCS) since his early days as a professional player. Over the years, he has made significant contributions to various LCS teams, including Counter Logic Gaming (CLG), 100 Thieves, and most recently, Golden Guardians.
While the 2023 season was not without its challenges for huhi and Golden Guardians, it was far from a disappointment. The team achieved notable success by surprising many with their performance in the Spring Split, eliminating favorites FlyQuest and securing a second-place finish. In the subsequent Summer Split, they continued their strong form, securing a fourth-place finish and earning a spot in the WQS 2023, a playoff-like tournament that determined the final representative from the LCS at Worlds 2023.
However, their journey at Worlds 2023 was cut short as Team BDS defeated them convincingly with a 3-0 scoreline in a single series, sending them back to North America.
NRG’s path in 2023
On the other side of the spectrum, NRG faced its own set of challenges in the 2023 season. Their return to the LCS was marked by a fifth-place finish in the Spring Split. However, the team rebounded spectacularly in the Summer Split, showcasing exceptional gameplay that culminated in a Split Championship title. This victory secured their spot in the Swiss Stage of Worlds 2023.
At Worlds 2023, NRG made an indelible mark as the sole team from both the LCS and LEC to advance to the Quarterfinals, a testament to their skill and determination on the international stage.
A potential boost for NRG
Should the reported transfer of huhi to NRG for the LCS 2024 season materialize, it could bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the team. Huhi’s extensive tenure in the LCS and his past performances with various organizations make him a valuable addition to any roster. His presence could play a pivotal role in NRG’s quest to maintain a strong position within the LCS and aim for success in the upcoming season.
As the League of Legends offseason officially kicks off on November 21, fans and enthusiasts alike will eagerly await official announcements to determine the validity of these rumors and reports. The offseason is traditionally a period of significant roster changes, and the esports community will be closely monitoring developments to see how teams shape up for the LCS 2024 season.
