According to information from sources close to Sheep Esports, midlaner Oh "Callme" Ji-hoon and toplaner Baek "Mihile" Sang-hwi have signed with Misa Esports and will compete in the Turkish Champions League next season.
Both players previously represented Nongshim RedForce in the LCK, but struggled to achieve good results in their first split, finishing eighth in both the spring and summer seasons.
Misa Esports, in turn, aims to continue their success after debuting in the Turkish league this year and qualifying for the Swiss stage of the EMEA Masters by recruiting two former LCK players.
Turkey — New Horizons
Mihile was initially a substitute player for NS in the summer split but replaced Park "DnDn" Geon-woo midway through the third week and played all subsequent LCK matches. Although his stats were not the best, it is worth noting that he joined the scene in mid-season with a struggling team, but he previously succeeded in the LCK CL, finishing third in the spring of 2024 and winning the trophy in the summer of 2023.
According to Sheep Stats, Mihile's stats from the summer split of 2024 show his development and progress.
A New Chance in Turkey After an Unsuccessful Split in the LCK
On the other hand, Callme was replaced by Fiesta after an unsuccessful spring split this year. Nevertheless, like Mihile, he found success with NS Academy in the summer split of 2023, being recognized as an All-CL Team midlaner after that split. Callme played only one game in the 2024 LCK summer split and is now looking to revive his career in Turkey.
