Immortals CEO Noah Whinston Discusses Dardoch’s Troubles
Noah Whinston, CEO of Immortals, openly acknowledged the issues surrounding Joshua “Dardoch” Hartnett last year. “Internal problems and clashes with others were a considerable challenge for us in the spring of 2017,” Whinston stated. This was just another setback in a string of disappointments for Dardoch, who has been suspended, traded, and left multiple teams throughout his professional career in the League of Legends scene.
Dardoch’s Redemption
Expectations were low when Dardoch joined a new team for the 2018 season. Fans anticipated the same old issues to arise. However, Dardoch has surprised everyone thus far by avoiding controversy and proving his worth.
A Change in Approach
Dardoch’s recent success can be attributed to his change in attitude and willingness to take personal responsibility. He admitted to being a bad teammate in the past and causing unnecessary problems. Learning from these mistakes, he has adopted a more mature approach to working with his team.
Embracing Support-Style Gameplay
In addition to his change in mentality, Dardoch has transitioned to playing more supportive, team-oriented champions. Rather than solely focusing on carrying games, he has embraced a role of setting up kills, objectives, and protecting his carries. This adjustment has paid off, as highlighted by his dominant performance on Sejuani against Cloud9.
To continue his redemption, Dardoch must showcase his newfound teamwork skills and strive for success in the upcoming playoffs. Season Eight has the potential to be a turning point in Dardoch’s career, and it’s up to him to seize the opportunity.
