It's now December, the final month of the year, and the trading window is in its last stage. Most of the teams have completed their team rosters and coach lineups, and have started their preparation for the upcoming year. During the stove league, we interviewed several players who will be facing new challenges with new teams, one of them being Sang-Yun “Sangyoon” Gwon, who successfully managed to renew his contract with Hanwha Life Esports. Hanwha Life Esports made some significant change to its lineup during the hot stove league. Among their top, jungle, and mid laners, the only player that got to stay was Tae-Hoon “Lava” Kim. On the other hand, all 4 bot laners, including the sub-members, got to stay. Hanwha completed their 10-man roster before any other teams could and began their preparation for 2019. Now Sangyoon, who has been with Hanwha Life Esports for 3 years now (including his time with the old ROX Tigers), will be entering the LCK with new teammates.
Coach iloveoov will be with Afreeca Freecs for 2019 as well. Afreeca Freecs announced their contract renewal with Coach Yeon-Sung “iloveoov” Choi on their official social media on December 5th. They also announced that Woo-Cheol “viNylCat” Chae and Gwang-Pyo Yang will be joining the team as new coaches. Coach iloveoov joined the League of Legends esports team after the StarCraft2 Pro League was disbanded in 2016. Ever since then, he has been with Afreeca Freecs for the 2017 and 2018 seasons, guiding the team to the 2018 League of Legends World Championship by winning the 2nd place in the LCK 2018. He will be taking on this new year with the two new coaches, viNylCat and Gwang-Pyo Yang, who recently returned to South Korea from China. Afreeca Freecs has also completed their 9-man team roster by adding Ucal, Twinkle, and Proud after they parted with Kuro, Mowgli, Kramer, and TusiN.
