EDward Gaming announced their 2017 LPL Spring roster with Coach Jeong “NoFe” Nochul as Coach, ex- ROX Tigers substitute mid laner Hae “Cry” Sungmin (renamed Zet) as AD carry, and the return of Zhao “Mitty” Zhiming as substitute jungler.

The EDward Gaming lineup is as follows:

Coach: Jeong “NoFe” Nochul

Top: Tong “Koro1” Yang

Top: Chen “Mouse” Yuhao

Jungle: Ming “Clearlove” Kai

Jungle: Zhao “Mitty” Zhiming

Mid: Lee “Scout” Yechan

ADC: Hae “Zet” Sungmin

Support: Tian “meiko” Ye

EDward Gaming have performed at the top of the League of Legends Pro League consistently since their formation at the end of 2013. They have made it to the World Championship three years in a row, advancing to the quarterfinals each time, but have fallen short there.

NoFe coached the Tigers from November of 2014, staying with the team for two World Championships (one World Championship final and one semifinal) until the roster split at the end of 2016. The ROX Tigers won 2016 LCK Summer.

Zet, previously known as Cry, as a substitute mid laner for ROX Tigers. He has been duo queueing with meiko as an AD carry on the Korean server.

Mitty previously played as a substitute AD carry, jungler, and top laner for EDward Gaming. He transferred to I May in 2016 LPL Summer, but still served primarily as a substitute.
