On the LCK side too, all the rosters previously revealed by the leaks are confirmed one after the other. After DRX it’s Liiv SANDBOX’s turn to formalize his composition for the 2023 season in LCK, and a roster expected to do better than third place in the last split in Korea, and the regional final that followed. Unsurprisingly, the names announced by the rumors are all there.
Only two survivors of the last season, Clozer on the midlane and Kael in support. On the toplane, it’s good Noh “burdolTae-yoon, 18-year-old player whose background is already interesting, as he went through the T1 academy before joining DWG KIA for two seasons, finishing on the podium at the start of the 2022 season and winning the regional final against SANDBOX with his previous club.
