Golden Guardians Adds Hauntzer and Olleh to Their Roster
According to a report from ESPN, Golden Guardians is looking to strengthen their team with the addition of former TSM top laner Kevin “Hauntzer” Yarnell and former Team Liquid support Kim “Olleh” Joo-sung. This move comes shortly after TSM announced the signing of Turkish top laner Sergen “Broken Blade” Çelik.
Hauntzer and Olleh Join Golden Guardians
Golden Guardians has reportedly signed Hauntzer and Olleh to replace top laner Samson “Lourlo” Jackson and support Matthew “Matt” Elento. Lourlo and Matt were part of Golden Guardians’ debut roster in 2018, but their future plans are currently unknown. The Golden Guardians’ roster for the 2019 season will now consist of Hauntzer, jungler Juan “Contractz” Arturo Garcia, former Echo Fox mid laner Henrik “Froggen” Hansen, AD carry Matthew “Deftly” Chen, and Olleh.
Golden Guardians’ Disappointing 2018 Season
As one of the newly accepted teams in the franchised NA LCS, Golden Guardians had a lackluster 2018 season, finishing in last place in both the Spring and Summer Splits. However, the team is looking to turn things around by adding experienced players like Hauntzer and Olleh.
Gold Guardians has not yet made any public announcements regarding these roster changes.
