Eyebrows were raised last week when Team Liquid support player, Alex "Xpecial" Chu made a vlog, speaking about the upcoming season. The alert was that mid laner, Kim "Fenix" Jae-hun, & AD Carry, Chae "Piglet" Gwang-jin, may not be able to attend the first week of the NA LCS due to visa issues/delays occuring for the players. 

 

Yesterday, Team Co-Owner, Steve "Liquid112" Arhancet, posted on Twitter confirming that Fenix would be back in America this week to play in the upcoming first week of NALCS; however, the fate was uncertain for Piglet at the time. Today, however, the situation was clarified for all League of Legends alike, and the result may not be as expected...

Team Head Coach, Peter Zhang took to Twitter to announce that Piglet wouldn't be able to make it back in time. He then clarified that in Piglet's spot would be none other than Liquid Academy's AD Carry, KeithMcBrief. The former LoLPro Support has recently returned to his AD Carry position and has been part of the top 10 of NA solo queue ladder multiple times. With only three days to go, it will be interesting to see how quickly Team Liquid can adapt. 

Piglet visa still in process, so we gonna use @liquidkeith for week 1 LCS AD sub
