FlyQuest bench VicLa for NA Challenger rookie in bid to halt LCS collapse
In a bid to avoid missing LCS playoffs completely, FlyQuest has today made a change for the run home in the Summer Split, benching mid laner VicLa and promoting in-house prodigy Djalal “Spirax” Djiar to the League of Legends starting roster in what will be the Canadian’s debut in the North American competition.
FlyQuest president Chris “PapaSmithy” Smith and general manager Nicholas Phan spoke at length about the decision in a video on July 11, stating that with a 3-9 record the performance of the team “had fallen below pre-season expectations.”
