Although Goldenglue may not be as tested as Jensen may forfeit lane pressure against Febiven, the substitution of Keith and Zeyzal may not have too much negative impact considering the state of the bottom lane at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>In the Sunday match versus Optic Gaming the same holds true in Goldenglue versus PowerOfEvil as it did in the C9 vs CG match. The difference is that the botlane matchup is no longer favored for the enemy side, as despite Arrow&#8217;s good performances, he has yet to receive a support that can match his playstyle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cloud9 has announced a raft of roster changes ahead of the team&#8217;s weekend match-up in the League of Legends: NA LCS Summer Split. eSportbet takes a look at the news and its effects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":5619,"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":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[172,4,24],"class_list":["post-5618","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-cloud9","tag-featured","tag-league-of-legends"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
