Evil Geniuses to use Helios in scrims and LCS this week
In a facebook post by Stephen 'Snoopeh' Ellis, he confirmed Helios would be playing with the team this week.
We will be using Helios in scrims this week and most likely trying him out this week in LCS to see how he fares in an LCS setting - I'll be watching closely and doing my best to help the team achieve a win, having the ability to watch the team from the outside will hopefully help me identify strengths and weaknesses within the team and my own performance.
Ellis goes on to explain why they brought Helios to the team:
When my individual play came into question, I went onto primarily only focusing on that and consequently negating a lot of other factors in order to improve purely that - as a result shot calling suffered, co-ordination with sololaner's and also couldn't manage the team effectively to avoid mistakes which were happening outside of the game - it forced me into a unhealthy state of mind as I was essentially fighting for my job.. I stopped sleeping much, I stopped going to the gym, I stopped interacting with the fans, I stopped being happy, I stopped being Snoopeh - I was playing approximately 14-15 hours a day, not caring about streaming for money.. purely improving my individual play and consequently I did improve - my mechanics specifically improved - I picked up champions like Lee Sin and albeit not mastered.. can bring out in competitive.
Last week, esportsheaven reported that Helios may be joining Evil Geniuses.
onGamers has reached out to Evil Geniuses LoL manager, Brian Cordry regarding the situation.
