Just moments ago, the reigning world champions DAMWON Gaming successfully signed two top lane players, Khan and Chasy. The addition of these two new members also signifies that the team has failed to renew the contract with superstar top laner Nuguri.
As for Kim “Khan” Dong-ha, he is already a familiar name in the global League of Legends community. However, in the recent season, Khan did not perform very well while playing for FunPlus Phoenix in the LPL. Therefore, in the upcoming season, Khan will need to put in a significant effort to fill the void left by Nuguri at DAMWON Gaming.
Meanwhile, Kim “Chasy” Dong-hyeon is a young talent (born in 2001) who just became the champion of CK Summer 2020 (the second-tier league in Korea) with Awesome Spear.
It can be said that the LCK Spring 2021 season will be a tumultuous one for LCK for many reasons, such as being the first season after the LCK was franchised, new equipment updates in League of Legends, and the pressure to defend the World Championship trophy that just returned to Korea… thus all teams are rushing to finalize their rosters perfectly to avoid falling behind.
Additionally, BeryL has just renewed his contract, and the former members of DAMWON Gaming all still have contracts until November 15, 2021. Therefore, if nothing changes, the roster for the world champion’s participation in LCK 2021 will be:
Top Lane: Khan/Chasy
Jungle: Canyon
Mid Lane: ShowMaker
Bot Lane: Ghost
Support: BeryL
