Dardoch

This one is a bit of a technicality. Joshua Dardoch Hartnett will already be contracted to OpTic Gaming when they rebrand into Immortals. Currently, Dardoch plays for OpTic Academy and generally is the sole reason whether they win or lose each game. OPTA lives and dies by Dardoch, relying on him and him alone to carry each game.

His performance in the Academy league shows us that he is better than Academy status. He has already played under the Immortals banner before, so he must show the higher-ups at Immortals that he has put his toxic nature behind him and show he can play for a team.

After performing so well in Academy, even getting a Pentakill on Qiyana in a recent Academy game, we think it’s high time for Dardoch to make his LCS resurgence.

Santorin

Lucas Santorin Larsen is FlyQuest’s backbone. With his top-tier pathing and ganking, he has been hailed as one of the best junglers in the LCS. However, FlyQuest hasn’t been able to make it work this Summer Split, only managing 4 wins in 13 games so far.

It’s clear to see that something in the FlyQuest camp isn’t clicking, and maybe some fresh scenery for Santorin could bring him back to the top of the standings as well as top of people’s tier-lists.

With his contract expiring at the end of Summer Split, a move could be on the cards for FlyQuest’s Santorin, and we think that Dignitas or Immortals would be a perfect place for Santorin to make his presence known, and lead to the top of the LCS.
