Cloud9 are finalizing a deal with LEC team Splyce to acquire mid laner Yasin “Nisqy” Din\u00e7er. The news, first reported by VP Esports<\/a>, comes a few days after C9 lost their own longtime starter, Nicolaj Jensen, to Team Liquid.<\/a><\/p>
Splyce initially gave Nisqy freedom to talk to other teams weeks ago<\/a>, along with the majority of the rest of their roster, when their application to the LEC was initially rejected<\/a>. Just days ago, a massive last-minute shift in the franchising process led to Splyce being thrown a lifeline back into the league<\/a>. But it seems like players were already on the move when that news became public.<\/p>
For C9, this means that Nisqy will likely take up the roster spot vacated by Jensen. C9 did have a replacement ready in the form of substitute player Grayson “Goldenglue” Gilmer, who started for the team at times last year and played well when called upon<\/a>. But even though he’s worked extremely hard to regain a starting spot in the LCS, it looks like he’ll have to wait longer for that to happen.<\/p>
