Ever since they won the 2016 NALCS Spring Split, Counter Logic Gaming has slowly been on the decline. 2016 Summer saw them finish fourth in playoffs and in the most recent split they were eliminated in 5th/6th. They’ve kept the same roster together for about a year and a half but that all changed when they transferred Xmithie over to the Immortals. To replace Xmithie, CLG brought in the man who jungled for IMT last split, Dardoch.
In Dardoch’s time with IMT and before that Team Liquid, he was always mechanically skilled but the largest criticism was that he would be tough to play with.
