Echo Fox's toplaner, Huni, will be featured as a special OGN guest commentator for the 2018 MSI on the 3rd of May.



Korea's gaming channel, OGN, has announced that every single MSI game will be broadcasted live for the Korean audience and that Madlife, HLE Sangyoon, JAG UmTi, and FOX Huni have been invited to be guest commentators. "It's my very first time commentating here in Korea, so I think I'll be quite nervous... However, I'll do my best to utilize the "NA fiesta" that I brought back with me to have some fun," Huni said. "I'll do my best to raise the chances of being invited again for a game in the future."



On the 3rd of May, the Play-In Group Stage will take place. Then, on the 8th, the Play-In Knockout stage will begin. The two winners of the Play-In Knockout stage will then proceed to the MSI Group Stage. The 1st match of the Group Stage will feature NA LCS's TeamLiquid and LCK's Kingzone DragonX. In regards to this highly anticipated matchup, Huni stated, "Although the match is two regional champions clashing, I still believe that Korea is far ahead of the other regions. However, we won't know the outcome until we actually see the game."



Huni was then asked a question in regards to NA's strengths this year, and how the region will break their streak of underperformance in international tournaments. In response, Huni commented, "TeamLiquid is a team with great teamwork. They're not a team that loses to weaker teams [due to mistakes]. I believe that they'll at least make semifinals. In addition, NA LCS as a whole has gotten a lot better this year."
