This article was originally published on GameSpot's sister site onGamers.com, which was dedicated to esports coverage.

Both sides have confirmed the story, Puszu will be joining Fnatic as a substitute for the All-Star Championship. Puszu mentioned it earlier today on Facebook where he said the following:

Going to be attending Allstars at Paris from 5-12th May as a fnatic sub. Get to see everyone again and hope I meet some fans !

Looking forward to it.

Not much later it was Fnatic's AD Carry Rekkles who tweeted:

Puszu will be attending as our substitute but won't be playing. Riot requires every team to bring atleast 1 substitute to #AllStar.

As Rekkles states, Riot Games requires every team to bring at least one substitute to All-Stars. Reasoning behind it might be the recent developments around Cloud 9 and OMG. Cloud 9 had to replace Hai with Link at the very last moment. As for OMG, they might need to have Cool step in for Xiyang who has been having trouble getting a visa.

onGamers has reached out to Puszu but has not yet received any response. Once we have more information we will update this post. Besides this news it's only a guess on which other substitutes we'll be seeing at the event next week.
