The support player of the Season 3 world champions Lee "PoohManDu" Jeong Hyeon will take a break from professional League of Legends due to health issues, report Fomos.kr. SKT will hold try-outs to fill the support role vacancy with applications opening tomorrow.
PoohManDu has been a part of SK Telecom T1 since roster's founding in February 2013. Since then, the aggressive playstyle of Lee has helped SKT on their way to four premier gold titles, including Champions Summer, S3 Korea Regional Finals, Season 3 World Championship and most recently Champions Winter 13-14.
After a year with the team, PoohManDu announced that he will be taking a break from professional gaming, citing chronic relapse of a childhood illness. According to Fomos, PoohManDu requested the break immediately after the Champions Winter final and will be granted one so he can recover his health. This is not a retirement for the bot-laner, but merely a temporary rest.
To fill the vacant spot for the support role, SK Telecom will hold try-outs, the applications for which will start tomorrow January 28th and will close on February 6th.
