The full roster of starting players for KOI was revealed and they will begin competing in the LEC next month.<\/p>\n<p>KOI will retain four out of the five starters from the Rogue team who played for them this season, and will part ways with only the top laner, Andrei &#8220;Odoamne&#8221; Pascu.<\/p>\n<p>The remaining starting lineup, will consist of jungler Kim &#8220;Malrang&#8221; Geun-seong, mid laner Emil &#8220;Larssen&#8221; Larsson, AD carry Markos &#8220;Comp&#8221; Stamkopoulos and support Adrian &#8220;Trymbi&#8221; Trybus, who will stay with the organization as it transitions to new ownership in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Rounding up the roster is former Vitality player, Mathias &#8220;Szygenda&#8221; Jensen, who had only played in the LFL in 2022, and will be taking over Odoamne&#8217;s spot in the top lane. <\/p>\n<p>Odoamne, who was an All-Pro in the LEC in all four of his splits with Rogue, will be joining Excel Esports for the next season.<\/p>\n<p>During the latter half of the previous season, Rogue emerged as the most successful team in the European League, both domestically and internationally.<\/p>\n<p>Their impressive performance, which included winning the LEC summer split and becoming the highest-ranking Western team at the World Championship, is a testament to the strength of the team&#8217;s roster. With the majority of this roster remaining intact, it is likely that the KOI brand will continue to thrive in the world of League esports.<\/p>\n<p>After announcing their roster, the organization went on to make a tribute post to Rogue and the franchise&#8217;s fans. They thanked the fans and shared their excitement about what the future holds.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thank you all who joined us today as we start this new phase as<br \/>\n@KOI,&#8221; the organization said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We owe everything to you, the fans. No matter what, we\u2018ll always be rogues at heart. Let\u2018s #gorogue one last time as we invite you to write the next chapter of KOI with us. #KOIUNITED #SOMOSKOI&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The lineup for KOI&#8217;s LEC in 2023 was announced by co-owner and streamer Ibai Llanos at a preseason event. After their introductions, KOI played against rival team Fnatic in a friendly show match.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, Jan. 21, the 2023 LEC season will kick off with the Winter Split. In the first game of the regular season, KOI will face Team BDS. With such a strong lineup, KOI is looking to make a deep run in the 2023 LEC season and possibly bring home the championship title.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\" class=\"contentLinkBtn\">More esports news<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KOI have released their League of Legends line-up for their debut season in the LEC, after merging with Rogue in the offseason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":26821,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[4,1782,24,520,259],"class_list":["post-26820","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-featured","tag-koi","tag-league-of-legends","tag-lec","tag-lol"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26820"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26820"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26820\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26838,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26820\/revisions\/26838"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26821"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26820"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26820"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26820"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
