The owner of Counter Logic Gaming and the controversial AD of the team talk about the roster changes that have everyone curious.

A lot of controversy and chatter has come, rooting from the huge roster changes CLG has made after qualifying for the Summer Split after an unexpectedly rough run in the Spring Split.  With 3 of the main roster not playing their familiar roles and only L1nk and Doublelift will be keeping their old roster roles.  Lots of questions have stirred up amongst the community after having players Bigfatlp and Nientonsoh thrown in unconvential roles for them.  Hotshot and Doublelift both spoke up to the community about these matters.

An excerpt of the interview

“Whose decision was it to have you step down from the team and why was that decision made?

It was my idea and decision to step down from a starting role on CLG. After being a professional player for over three years and as CLG grows, my aspirations and what I feel is best for the company have shifted. While I still enjoy being a competitor, the intense schedule of LCS has created more disconnect between the team and its fans I can help remedy not being tied to a starter's schedule. This, coupled with my desire to become more involved in the industry side of eSports and my confidence of the potential of the team moving forward, all contributed to this decision.

How do your teammates feel about the decision?

This topic is something that I have brought up in the past, but the real barrier ever keeping this from happening was a lack of talent in the NA scene making it difficult to fill my spot on the starting roster. Since LCS began, however, we have seen the talent level of the NA scene increase dramatically making a change like this possible. My team knows I have the organization's and in turn, their best interests in mind, so they support me completely with this decision.”

Doublelift's opinions were displayed in standard fashion as taken before the All-Star matches by Travis in video format.
