Close sources confirm that Nicolaj “Jensen” Jensen, the legendary Danish midlaner, has reached an agreement to sign with Cloud9 as a starting midlaner for the Summer Split. If confirmed, this news means the return of one of the most laureated midlaner of North America, after a recent report about Fudge rerolling back to toplane was made by LEC_Wooloo on Upcomer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The return of the king<\/h2>\n

It was a surprise for everyone that Jensen was left without a team this year. The midlaner was considered as one of the best in the league, on top of being a European citizen with a resident status, but was eventually left out due to unfortunate circumstances within the market.<\/p>\n

This time, he would return to the team that saw him triumph, with excellent results such as reaching the Worlds 2018 semi-finals.<\/p>\n

Cloud9 aims to fix their bad start<\/h2>\n

We all know how Cloud9 developed this offseason: a roster with great and yet unknown talents such as bringing Korean imports Park “Summit” Woo-tae and Kim “Berserker” Min-cheol, the team clearly aimed to smash the LCS, under the guidance of Head Coach Nick ‘\u009cLS’\u009d de Cesare.<\/p>\n

But, the results weren’\u0099t as good as planned, with some changes needed to be done mid-split, such as the dismissal of Head Coach LS and the swaps in the botlane between fellow Korean support Kim “Winsome” Dong-keon and Jonah “Isles” Rosario. Besides that, they managed to get 2nd place in the regular season, but ultimately failed to perform good enough in playoffs, losing 0-3 against eventual title winners Evil Geniuses.<\/p>\n
