RunAway Announces Entrance into League of Legends, Finalizes Roster for 2020 Season
RunAway, known for its success in Overwatch Contenders Korea, is now entering the professional League of Legends scene. The team has announced its finalized roster for the upcoming 2020 season.
The roster includes top laner Shin “Seraph” Woo-yeong, jungler Kim “Crush” Jun-seo, mid laner Lee “Edge” Ho-seong, AD carry Lim “Moo” Mu-heon, and support Jang “Zzus” Joon-soo. RunAway has also signed Kim “Bluff” Hyeon-jun as a secondary jungler and Kim “Tilly” Tae-hee as the head coach.
Seraph, who played for Team Envy in North America in 2017, will be taking an import slot on the team as an NA resident. Crush previously played for Sandbox Gaming, while Edge played for the now-disbanded Team MVP. Moo was in the Korean Challenger league with VSG, and Zzus previously played with bbq Olivers before leaving the roster in May.
Although the roster may not appear strong on paper, their experience could help them grow together as a team. They will also need to work their way through the ladder of Korean Challengers. Adjusting to the League of Legends competitive scene may take some time, but the potential rewards are worth it.
