Olleh Joins Dignitas' Academy League of Legends Roster
By Nathan Fusco
Kim "Olleh" Joo-sung joined Dignitas to complete a stacked Academy roster for 2020. The former support player for Golden Guardians and Team Liquid has found a home for the upcoming season but he'll miss out on LCS action.
Although, this roster has every chance at taking first place with five former LCS professionals.
Assembled Exodia. Welcome our new support @Olleh, to DIG 2020!

The roster consists of Samson “Lourlo” Jackson, Matthew “Akaadian” Higginbotham, Tanner Damonte and Kim “Fenix” Jae-hun. Every member of this team was an LCS player at one time before failing to find consistent play time.
Dignitas returns to the LCS and Academy field this season after acquiring the Clutch Gaming franchise. The esports organization was originally left out of the first 10 franchise spots despite having a rich history in League of Legends esports.
The team will showcase its ability starting Jan. 25 and it should be an interesting one to watch with new changes to the season and playoffs. Riot Games has removed the Gauntlet and included Monday night games.
