Tyler "Skadoodle" Latham is set to return to action for Cloud9 after a brief spell on the sidelines due to health issues, Jake "Stewie2k" Yip has revealed.

The 23-year-old missed the team's last two matches, against Misfits and Renegades, after being rushed to hospital with internal bleeding, potentially caused by complications from a routine surgery.

In his absence, Cloud9 fielded team coach Soham "⁠valens⁠" Chowdhury as their fifth player and lost both matches, with the defeat against Renegades resulting in an all-too-early elimination from the race for a spot at the SL i-League StarSeries Season 3 event.



Skadoodle is available for tonight's match against compLexity

Tyler "⁠Skadoodle⁠" Latham's return comes at a welcome time for Cloud9, who are currently in fourth place in the ESL Pro League, with a 7-3 record. They will be looking to distance themselves from the mid-table places with a victory over compLexity, who fielded Jason "⁠jasonR⁠" Ruchelski in Tuesday's match against Winterfox.
