SK Telecom T1 Revamps Roster: LCK Teams Beware
SK Telecom T1 has made some major changes to their roster, and they’re looking scarier than ever. The team recently announced the signing of top laners Kim “Khan” Dong-ha and Kim “Crazy” Jae-hee, junglers Kim “Clid” Tae-min and Kang “Haru” Min-seung, and AD carry Park “Teddy” Jin-seong.
A Winning Acquisition
Khan, formerly the top laner for KINGZONE DragonX, has gained a reputation for his stellar performance on carry champions such as Jayce and Jax. He has won two LCK titles in the past two years and has a dedicated fan base all over the world. Khan’s backup in SKT will be Crazy, who was recently relegated from the LCK while playing for bbq Olivers.
A Late Game Master
Teddy, although not as well-known globally as Khan, has earned the respect of LCK analysts for his exceptional late game play on AD carries. Nicknamed “fountain laser” for his incredible late game team fighting and decision making, Teddy has made numerous impressive comebacks in seemingly hopeless situations during his time on Jin Air Green Wings.
A Jungle Dilemma
Haru, formerly the jungler for Gen.G, is accustomed to sharing the starting jungle position. He will now be partnered with Clid, who previously played for LPL team JD Gaming. At the moment, it is uncertain who will be SKT’s starting jungler between Haru and Clid.
Joining ADC Leo, support Effort, and the renowned mid laner Faker, Khan, Crazy, Haru, Clid, and Teddy will be part of SKT’s competitive roster for 2019. SKT stated in their announcement that they are still in the process of signing more players for mid and support, so fans can expect more news in the near future.
SK Telecom T1 has not yet revealed any plans to sign additional coaching staff.
