Sad news for StarCraft fans, but great news for League of Legends fans. Lee āMarineKingā Jung Hoon, one of the most famous and iconic personalities of the StarCraft eSports scene is stepping away from space battles and entering League of Legends territory.
According to South Korean site Inven, he had several reasons to switch, one of them is a growing interest in MOBAs and another, more significant one that his performance wasnāt really good since StarCraft IIās expansion Heart of the Swarm came out, introducing massive changes to multiplayer.
At least he wonāt be leaving his team, shifting over to the newly-formed Prime League of Legends branch.
Weāll all miss MarineKingās superb, trademark unit control (proof video below!) and lets hope heāll be just as entertaining in LoL as he was in StarCraft
