With just one day to go before Giants Gaming plays their opening match of the 2017 EU LCS Spring Split, Son “S0NSTAR” Seung-ik has rejoined the team as their new strategic coach.

S0NSTAR originally joined the team in February 2016 after several months as a free agent. He was dropped from Giants' roster in October alongside top laner Lennart “Smittyj” Warkus following the team's failure to qualify for the 2016 World Championship. While on the team, S0NSTAR secured a 4.86 KDA in the summer split, the highest on the team.

Giants open their spring split with a match against Misfits on Friday.
