"Leaving Velocity esports, top just isn't for me:D Can't wait to see my wife n kid:D."

Joseph 'Vileroze' Bourassa , former mid laner converted to the top lane, has decided to leave Velocity eSports . He wrote on twitter:Vile had been the team’s mid laner for the first half of the season, but switched to top lane when Cristian 'Cris' Rosales was removed from the team in favor of Tyler 'Ecco' Spesick . Velocity cited communication problems with Cris as the main impetus for the move.Judging from his tweet, Vile did not end up taking to top lane as well as he and the team hoped. While many followers of the scene believe that there are no serious distinctions between mid and top laners anymore, preferring to call them both solos, there are still some limitations to Vile when bringing on a player such as Ecco who mains mage type ability power champions. Generally, compositions don’t favor more than one mage champion at most, and mages are seen to be most effective when paired with a tankier second solo to compensate for their squishiness.With his departure, Vile leaves a hole in the lineup that has to be filled for their matches today against Vulcun and Team Coast . They currently have two subs on their team that specialize in top lane, Cris and Albert '잘 못' Zheng , more commonly known in the NA scene as "Box Box". Box Box is well known for his Riven play, with 604 of his 980 ranked games this season on her. Box Box has never played competitively before and has a very thin champion pool, so it seems unlikely that Velocity would use him in the LCS. The more likely candidate is moving Cris back into the starting lineup. His champion pool is much larger and he has much more competitive experience.However, Velocity eSports has yet to name a replacement. As of yesterday, Vileroze said he is “not sure what VES is doing this week.” Having replaced Cris once, Velocity may be looking to avoid repeating the problems they encountered earlier in the season, but it’s hard to imagine Box Box faring well in competitive play until he expands his champion pool. We’ll find out later today as Velocity takes on Vulcun in the third match of the NA LCS.
