Midlaner Šimon "OMON" Řiháček has reached a verbal agreement with BK ROG in the LFL, according to Sheep Esports sources. The Czech midlaner will be joining the league after a successful year with Ici Japon Corp (IJC), where he won everything in Division 2 this year, including the Up and Down matches. The player had attracted interest from IJC, which wanted to retain him on their roster, as well as from Joblife and BDS Academy. Vitality.Bee was also interested but are expected to have Vetheo in their roster. Mad Lions KOI also considered him as an option for the mid lane if Joseph "Jojopyun" Pyun declined their offer.

BK ROG make their first move

The player returns to a major ERL league after competing in the Iberian Cup 2022 with Movistar KOI and then in the NLC with NORD during Summer 2023. With NORD, he secured second place and advanced to the Play-Ins of the EMEA Masters, though they unfortunately did not make it through.

This move marks the first change in BK ROG's roster. After finishing 5th twice in 2023, the team has sought its first talent to replace midlaner Paweł "Czekolad" Szczepanik, who has departed.
