Elyoya, the star jungler of MAD Lions, has signed a contract extension with the team for an additional three years. This comes as the team prepares for a roster reshuffle in the upcoming season.
Despite facing challenges in the 2023 LEC season, Elyoya showcased his exceptional skills and remained at a high level throughout the year. As the longest-standing member of the roster, he has established himself as one of the best players in the league.
MAD Lions recently announced their intention to make significant changes to their roster for the 2024 season. While players were given the opportunity to explore other options, no changes have been made so far, except for the departure of strategic coach Pad.
Reports suggest that roster changes are on the horizon, with Carzzy likely to be replaced by Supa from Movistar Riders. Additionally, MAD Lions is reportedly close to signing head coach Melzhet from the same ERL team.
Although MAD Lions had a mixed year with early exits in international tournaments, they managed to secure an LEC Championship during an unexpected miracle run in Spring.
Looking ahead to 2024, MAD Lions is expected to have a significantly different lineup. However, Elyoya will continue to be a key player and the face of the team.
