Lunatic-Hai sister team revealed on stream

Lunatic-Hai's new sister team has been revealed live on stream after weeks of rumors that the organisation had formed an additional team. Former players of BK Stars, CONBOX, MVP Infinity and ROX Orcas have come together to form the new roster. The team faced off against the main Lunatic-Hai roster in a PTR show-match, which was produced and streamed by CONTENTSBOX.

LH2

Players Alarm and Bunny played for the now disbanded BK Stars in all three season of APEX, accumulating a wealth of experience on Korea's biggest stage. Unsurprisingly, Bunny has once again received the responsibility of DPS duties, considered by many to be one of Korea's finest Tracer players. Alarm will continue to play flex-support, as he did on BK Stars. Unlike his fellow ex-Stars, DoHyeon only played in the first season of APEX before a lengthy absence from the competitive scene. He will make his return on a new role, transitioning from DPS to main tank.

MyungHoon also brings valuable experience to the team, having played in the first two seasons of APEX with CONBOX before leaving the active roster. MyungHoon is currently planned to play DPS, showcasing his Genji during tonight's show-match.

Flash and Guardian round out the squad as the team's least experienced players. Both have experience playing in Challengers but neither have played in the main division of APEX. Flash and Guardian will play support and flex respectively.

The name of the sister squad has not yet been finalized and thus the team will be referred to as Luantic-Hai #2 until a name is decided upon. Lunatic-Hai #2 plan on initiating their climb of the Apex ladder through the Korean Open Division.

The Lunatic-Hai #2 roster is:

Chae "Bunny" Joon-hyuk (DPS)
Cho "MyungHoon" Sung Min (DPS)
Cho "Guardian" Joon-hwan (Flex)
Kim "Dohyeon" Do-hyeon (Tank)
Kim "Alarm" Kyeong-bo (Support)
Lee "Flash" Yeong-ho (Support)

Sideshow [#3]

I put zero stock in the showmatch to give any indication of how strong this roster is, and the team certainly doesn't scream "talent" to me, but given how successfully L-H #1 were able to keep up their skill and adapt, perhaps the org can do the same here. More interested in whether L-H #1 takes that Seoul spot and is transferred off elsewhere. There's no way L-H just made this roster to sit about. They don't have a spot for it in APEX unless L-H #1 disappears.

The coach pretty much shut down the notion that they had the spot but that may have been to quell any ideas of rumors starting up.

I don't see why they wouldn't be able to make it to APEX considering what the current talent pool looks like right now. You could argue that, in a vacuum, they could be as good or better than Flash Lux based on the core members.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the main team move up, but I also wouldn't be that shocked to see them both stick around. The one thing I do assume is that if Miro and friends were to be moved they would probably go for quite the premium.
