After benching AD Carry Pontus “Vardags” Dahlblom and losing mid laner Tristan "PowerOfEvil" Schrage and jungler Cho “H0R0” Jae-hwan, the Unicorns of Love had some decisions to make about their League of Legends roster heading into IEM San Jose. This lineup may not be permanent, but we now know who will be competing in the tournament.
Joining mainstays top laner Tamás "Vizicsasci" Kiss and support player Zdravets "Hylissang" Galabov will be familar face Berk "Gilius" Demir in the jungle. Gilius was a previous member of the team, and once again subbed for them earlier this year. He looked strong when playing in the Challenger scene, and certainly has familiarity with the organization.
In the mid lane will be SK Gaming player Hampus "Fox" Myhre. Fox was one of the few bright spots on an otherwise disappointing SK squad, and should be able to at least hold his own in the mid lane.
At AD Carry will be former Fnatic breakout Pierre "Steeelback" Medjaldi. While he ultimately left that team so Fnatic could pick Rekkles back up, Steeelback has proven that he is an LCS-caliber ADC, and may very well be an improvement over Vardags.
IEM begins this weekend, on November 21st, and will be your first opportunity to see this new UoL lineup in action.
