Sicca Discusses Possible Return to Competitive Play

Li "Sicca" Hao-Yu has been the coach of OMG for the past split and has been casting on the side. Those who have been familiar with the scene for longer, however, know him as NaMei's support from Positive Energy, who was touted as one of the best support players of LPL and was part of the lineup that took championship the title at the 2013 LPL Summer Playoffs.

Many have wondered if Sicca will return to competitive play for some time now, though he has expressed that he is comfortable as a caster and coach. Recently, however, OMG has been actively seeking new support players, including Rhythmn, a well-known streamer. Today, Sicca announced that he is considering returning to competitive play to help out his team.

There may be a need to return to play one more time before my contract with the Club [OMG and PE] expires. Casting may be temporarily put on hold.

Sicca's skill as a laning support player was nearly unrivaled during the 2013 LPL season, and if Sicca can return to form, he will be an asset for OMG. Some might be concerned, however, that Sicca has not practiced support in a while. Should he join the team with Allen jungling and Cool in the mid lane, that would mean OMG would have three members who did not practice their starting role last split and two members who were not playing competitively at all.

Time will tell of OMG selects Sicca as their new support player or if a new face will appear on the team.
