Amazing and Wadid Confirm Absence from LEC and LCS in the Upcoming Year

Two LCS Players Won’t Be Returning for the 2020 Season

Two players from the LCS will not be participating in the League of Legends region in 2020. Maurice “Amazing” Stuckenschneider, the former jungler for 100 Thieves, and Kim “Wadid” Bae-in, the former support for FlyQuest, have both announced today that they will not be competing in the LEC or LCS next year.

In his announcement, Amazing stated that he is moving towards the next phase of his career and has decided not to compete in the 2020 season. He will be going in a different direction after being replaced on 100 Thieves by William “Meteos” Hartman from OpTic Gaming and Immortals.

He is joined in his departure from the North American region by support player Wadid, who joined FlyQuest during week four of the 2019 Summer Split. Recently, Wadid left the LCS team and they signed Lee “IgNar” Dong-geun from Schalke 04 for the 2020 season.

Although both Wadid and Amazing struggled to find success in NA in 2019, they have both had great success on the rift and made it to the Worlds semifinals with different European teams. While Amazing will be taking a break from competing next year, Wadid may still have a chance to find a starting spot in another region.
