LIVE: League of Legends 2022 rostermania: all LCS & LEC roster changes
Riot GamesAnother League of Legends domestic season has come to a close, new LCS and LEC champions have been crowned, and now rumblings have taken over behind the scenes; LoL Rostermania begins, and we’ve got all the latest on player moves, swaps, rumors, and more!
- Rekkles leaves LEC for starting role with Karmine Corp in France
- Team Liquid super team being formed with Bwipo, Bjergsen, Hans sama joining
- TSM promises to rebuild with “young talent” after SwordArt leaves
The League of Legends free agency period is coming to an end, and the return of the competitive season is looming.
It’s been an eventful offseason for LEC and LCS fans, but with only a few LEC teams left to lock their rosters, we’re finally getting a glimpse of what the 2022 Spring split will look like. We’ve seen some of the biggest names in Western league left teamless, and some take the leap to find success overseas as imports.
One of the highlights of the offseason was legendary midlaner Soren ‘Bjergsen’ Bjeg announcing he would return to competitive play as the starting midlaner for Team Liquid. He took over the spot from Nicolaj ‘Jensen’ Jensen, who is one of many iconic players who will not be competing at the beginning of 2022.
It’s been a riveting offseason, and it’s not quite over yet. Here’s all the latest LCS and LEC rostermania news, to keep you up to date.
