DIG Huni: "We've been doing quite well with Soraka in practice, so the next level is probably Sona."
Dignitas snapped its losing streak against 100 Thieves to start Week 4 of the 2020 League of Legends Championship Series Spring Split. The team got off to a hot 3-0 start, but then lost as many games in succession as other teams in the LCS began to synergize. DIG went back to the drawing board and got creative to get itself out of its funk. Ornn was drafted for Mid Laner Henrik "Froggen" Hansen, and Heo "Huni" Seung-hoon threw the LCS a curveball by locking in the infamous top lane Soraka. Dignitas' trust in innovation paid off, rallying around the Miss Fortune of rookie AD Carry Johnson "Johnsun" Nguyen for the team's fourth victory of the season. After besting 100 Thieves, Huni sat down with Inven Global's Nick Geracie to discuss the team's adjustments heading into Week 4, top lane mages, and DIG's identity amongst its LCS peers.
