Carzzy returns to Team Vitality alongside Hylissang

According to Sheep Esports, AD Carry Carzzy is set to go back to Team Vitality after reaching a verbal agreement with the organization. This would mark the second time Carzzy joins VIT, following the stint in the 2022 season.

Following the disappointing end to Worlds 2023, MAD Lions players were given the opportunity to explore options early in the off-season, with Carzzy attracting interest from several LEC teams. Based on the report by Sheep, Carzzy was pursued by FNC and Team BDS, but the player declined the offers. Had he accepted the FNC offer, Carzzy would have teamed up with an European support. Given that the deal didn’t go through, Fnatic has pivoted to a full Korean bot lane with Korean import player Jun alongside Noah.

For BDS, instead, the offer didn’t end up going through, as the Czech player opted to go back to Vitality, reuniting with his support Hylissang, who he played with on MAD Lions this year. Additionally, the player will also reunite with the former MAD Lions coaching staff of Mac and Pad.

One player is missing from the VIT lineup

With the ADC also locked in for 2024, Team Vitality is only left with the mid lane position to fill up.

Top Lane: Kyeong “Photon” Gyu-tae

Mid Lane: ????
Bot Lane: Matyáš “Carzzy” Orság
Support: Zdravets “Hylissang” Iliev Galabov

The French organization is one of the four squads without a confirmed mid laner, with the others being Team BDS, Fnatic, and Karmine Corp. Humanoid and nuc have contracts running until 2024 while Saken from Karmine Corp has its contract expiring on November 20, which means we might see new moves in the upcoming days.
