Mikyx has verbally agreed to return to G2 Esports for the 2027 LEC season, according to Sheep Esports. It would be his third spell with the club. G2 has yet to announce the signing.
The outlet first reported on November 10 that Mikyx’s commitment depended on how G2 filled its top lane vacancy. In a later report, Sheep Esports said he had committed to G2 as a move to LYON became less likely. G2 had previously tried to retain Labrov, who reportedly chose Fnatic.
Mikyx captained SK Gaming in 2026, when the team missed the playoffs in all three splits. He first joined G2 ahead of the 2019 season, winning MSI and reaching the Worlds final that year, and returned for a second spell from 2023 through 2024.
