Today, the CJ Entus organization announced that mid laner Shin "CoCo" Jin-young and jungler Kang "Ambition" Chan-yong have left the League of Legends team. This announcement comes only a couple weeks after the team finished 2nd in the 2015 LoL KeSPA Cup. Ambition is moving on to join Samsung Galaxy Pro Game Team, but nothing has been made official regarding CoCo's future. Here is the statement released by CJ Entus:
"Hello fans,
We want to let you know some news you would have been curious about. CoCo and Ambition have decided to terminate their contracts with CJ ENTUS. Although we had hoped they would stay on the team, we respect CoCo's wishes to head to the world league and Ambition's decision to join the Samsung GALAXY PRO-GAME TEAM. We are sincerely sorry to let them go but we would like to express our appreciation and support for them and their future performance.
Samsung has been re-stocking their roster, after a disappointing finish in both the LCK Summer Split and the LoL KeSPA Cup. Joining Ambition will be former Dignitas AD Carry Jo "CoreJJ" Yong-in as the team attempts to turn things around. Right now, incumbent jungler and AD Carry Eve and Fury (respectively) are still listed as starters, so the organization will have some decisions to make for the coming year. It would be difficult to imagine that Ambition will not take over the starting job, but for now, we'll just have to wait and see.
