“We’re ecstatic to have secured Ryu’s services for the 2015 season. It’s very easy to look at a couple of recent games, where someone is playing essentially as a merc, and say – he’s not playing so well. We have firsthand experience that he is not only playing on a high level, but that once he is settled we feel that he will be one of the absolute top mid players in the west.”

“I’m really happy to finally be announced for H2K. I met the guys at IEM and we got along really well. I had some great experiences in Korea, but during my short time in Europe already, I knew I wanted more. I’m delighted to be here and I hope you guys will cheer us this season!”
