Jojopyun’s LoL Journey to Join Cloud9 for 2024 LCS Season
Jojopyun's meteoric rise in the NA League scene began with his debut under Evil Geniuses, where his remarkable mechanical prowess and fearless decision-making left an indelible mark. Despite EG's playoff setbacks, Jojopyun secured the Most Valuable Player award for his outstanding performance during the 2023 Summer Split.
The young prodigy's journey to Cloud9 unfolded amidst controversy surrounding EG's management, including alleged mishandlings and the departure of former AD carry prospect Danny. With the organization facing public scrutiny and financial struggles leading to their exit from the LCS, Jojopyun sought a new home to further his career.
Cloud9's quest for a new mid laner was sparked by the retirement of EMENES after the 2023 World Championship. EMENES chose to fulfill his mandatory military service, closing the chapter on his professional gaming career. Jojopyun's arrival injects an aggressive playing style into the team, complementing the combat-ready attitudes of Blaber and Berserker.
The trio of Blaber, Fudge, and Vulcan, seasoned by international events and prestigious tournaments, brings a wealth of veteran knowledge to the squad. This, coupled with Jojopyun's aggression, forms a potent combination that could propel Cloud9 to new heights in the competitive scene.
Adding to the prowess behind the scenes, Cloud9 has appointed iconic NA mid laner Hai as the team manager, with head coach Mithy leading the way. This seasoned leadership duo aims to guide the team to unparalleled success in the 2024 season, adding an extra layer of experience and insight to the already formidable roster.
