LNG add Weiwei, Nia, and Ycx as NIP send Photic and Fengyue in opposite directions

LNG made the biggest splash on July 20, adding three names at once with jungler Weiwei, mid laner Nia, and support Ycx joining the organization. LNG also brought in Lucius as translator after his departure from EDG. It is a broad reset across the roster and staff support group, and it gives LNG multiple new pieces to work with immediately.

EDG answered with a notable mid lane move of their own, signing BuLLDoG. The organization also added translator Lucius before his listed move away to LNG, while Maokai shifted internally from Head of Coaching Staff to Head Coach. That coaching promotion is one of the clearest structural changes of the day, with EDG reshaping both its mid lane and leadership setup.

Ninjas in Pyjamas were one of the busiest teams in the bot side market. The team added bot laner Photic from OMG and support Fengyue from TES, while bot laner Assum and support Zhuo both left the roster. TES then moved quickly to fill its own support opening by bringing in Zhuo, creating a direct chain between the two organizations.

Elsewhere in the LPL, OMG lost Photic and Ultra Prime parted ways with Hena, thinning out the pool of established bot lane options in China. Over in EMEA, Team Vitality saw two exits, with mid laner Humanoid and assistant coach Lukezy both leaving the organization.

The headline is LNG's three-player intake, but NIP's bottom lane remake stands out just as much. Photic and Fengyue arrive as a package, and TES's move for Zhuo completes one of the day's cleanest roster domino effects.
