Sean “Yeon” Sung is expected to leave Team Liquid for Cloud9 ahead of the 2027 LCS season, Sheep Esports reported on November 12. Neither club has announced the move.
Yeon spent two years in Liquid’s academy before taking the starting job in 2023. He won three domestic titles with the organization, including the 2026 Summer championship. Cloud9 would be his first LCS team outside Liquid.
The move would fill the opening in Cloud9’s bot lane after Tactical was reportedly allowed to explore his options. Sheep Esports also reported separately that CoreJJ is set to join Cloud9, which would keep Liquid’s longtime bot lane together at a new club.
