Shopify Rebellion, Karmine Corp, Team Liquid Make Offers for Quid

Quid, the talented midlaner known as Lim “Quid” Hyeon-seung, is entering a pivotal stage in his esports career. After concluding his time with 100 Thieves, where he recently faced T1, a wave of interest from prominent teams within the League of Legends scene has emerged.

Teams Interested in Quid

Three major organizations are leading the pursuit of Quid:

• Shopify Rebellion
• Karmine Corp
• Team Liquid

These teams aim to strengthen their rosters in both the LCS and LEC for the upcoming season. They are expected to invest wisely with a focus on enhancing their midlane capabilities.

Quid’s Journey and Achievements

Before joining 100 Thieves, Quid honed his skills at the Gen.G Global Academy. He debuted in Tier 1 competitions in May 2023. Despite early challenges, he quickly made a name for himself. By the third split in LCS, he was acknowledged as the Best Mid Laner in North America and earned a spot on the All-Pro Team, a significant accomplishment considering he was the only non-FlyQuest player to achieve this honor.

Initially, 100 Thieves intended to acquire midlaner Joseph Joon “Jojopyun” Pyun, which would have resulted in Quid shifting to the AD Carry role. However, Jojopyun ended up joining Movistar KOI, allowing Quid to maintain his preferred position as he looks forward to the 2025 season.

Future Prospects

The uncertainty surrounding Quid’s next move is palpable, especially with Sentinels gearing up to enter the LCS. While they have not shown any interest in acquiring players yet, the possibility remains that they might consider Quid for the slot left vacant by 100 Thieves.

Meanwhile, Shopify Rebellion, Karmine Corp, and Team Liquid are actively searching for alternative midlane options as they prepare for contingencies in case they do not secure Quid.

Quid’s Aspirations

In a recent interview, Quid conveyed his ambition to join a championship-caliber team. He remarked, “I don’t mind where I go, but I haven’t won a title yet. I want to join a team that can win championships.” This statement highlights his eagerness to be part of a victorious roster.

As the offseason unfolds, Emegypt will closely monitor the developments surrounding Quid and provide updates on his potential new team. His ultimate destination could reshape the competitive dynamics in both the LEC and LCS leagues.
