Sources have come forward with reports that Yasin “Nisqy” Dincer has been negotiating a deal with Cloud9 and is close to signing with the North American squad.

Nisqy got his start in competitive league of legends by playing with numerous French and Turkish Challenger teams, but came into the limelight with Fnatic Academy as the team’s starting mid laner. After qualifying for the European League of Legends Championship Series (EU LCS) with Fnatic Academy, he signed with North American organization Team EnVyUs for the 2017 North American League of Legends Championship Series (NA LCS) Summer split.

With Team EnVyUs, he narrowly made playoffs and was a solid contributor to a team that was largely focused around jungle and bot lane. Following that success, Nisqy returned to Europe in 2018 where he made playoffs in both Spring and Summer with Splyce, placing 3rd and 6th. He failed to make to the World Championship, but his generally steady play remains attractive for any sidelane focused team.
