Ssumday

No top-laner made a splash on the 2018 LCS Season quite like Kim “Ssumday” Chan-ho. The Korean top-laner, currently contracted to 100 Thieves, proved he was capable of solo-carrying a team when he needed to and became the Thieves most valuable asset in the LCS and when they competed at Worlds.

Ssumday hasn’t had the best 2019 however, not being able to carry 100T out of a tenth place finish in the Spring Split, and playing in the Academy League for summer when he would be a happy entry into many other LCS teams.

Having already played for Dignitas in the past, Ssumday could fit right into either of these returning teams. This Ssumday deal may be the most expensive on our list as he will still be contracted to 100T through 2020, so we will have to wait and see if either team really wants to splash the cash to welcome Ssumday back to the main LCS stage.

Flame

Lee “Flame“ Ho-jong would be a great addition to both Dignitas and Immortals. Having already played in the LCS with Immortals themselves in 2017 and FlyQuest in 2018, he would be well adapted to communicating in English and would slot perfectly into either organization.

Currently contracted to LCK’s Damwon Gaming and struggling to beat out fellow DWG top-laner Nuguri, it could be time for Flame to make the move back to North America with his contract expiring in November of 2019.

Also being known as ‘The Most Handsome Face in LoL’ could benefit the organizations in other ways, of course.
