Sources have assured onGamers that Gu "imp" Seung-bin will be the new starting AD carry for LGD Gaming during the 2015 season. We have been informed that a contract has already been signed, and the team captain, Chen "PYL" Bo has discussed it openly on stream and QQ, though no official announcement has been made.

Imp, formerly part of the Season 4 World Championship winning team Samsung White, is one of the most popular Korean players in the world. His personality has helped him accumulate a multitude of fans globally.

LGD Gaming, best known for dominant DotA 2 teams, has been heavily investing in League of Legends recently. In two years they managed to build a roster strong enough to place top four in the League of Legends Pro League (LPL). Their signing of imp indicates the organization has aspirations toward the 2015 World Championship title.

It is rumored that LGD Gaming attempted to acquire imp's teammate, Choi "DanDy" Inkyu to supplement the roster, but he was picked up by another organization.
