BrokenBlade Reportedly Set to Join Movistar KOI for 2027

Just days after their early elimination from Worlds 2026, G2 Esports are in full rebuild mode. According to a report by Brieuc "LEC Wooloo" Seeger, Sergen "BrokenBlade" Çelik is set to leave G2 and join Moivstar KOI for the LEC 2027 season, putting an end to one of the longest-standing partnerships in European League of Legends.

BrokenBlade to Replace Myrwn on Movistar KOI

If there's one place Movistar KOI desperately needed an upgrade, it was in the top lane. Alex "Myrwn" Villarejo has spent the last three years with the Spanish organization and has been continuously criticized for his poor level of play.

Though Myrwn was certainly capable of catching opponents off-guard with off-meta picks, MKOI's lack of stability in the top lane has long been one of the team's biggest weaknesses. Now, stability is exactly what they should get in the form of BrokenBlade.

No top laner in Europe has won as many LEC titles as BrokenBlade (12), bringing with him the kind of championship pedigree and veteran leadership that MKOI needs most. Next to Javier "Elyoya" Prades and Joseph "Jojopyun" Pyun, BrokenBlade should complete one of the strongest top sides in the LEC.

G2 Continue Making Moves

In only the last few days, G2 have let go of head coach Luka "Perkz" Perković and are reportedly set to replace jungler Rudy “SkewMond” Semaan with Linas “Lyncas” Nauncikas. Now, BrokenBlade seems to be the next name set to depart.

Who Will Replace BrokenBlade on G2?

At the time of writing, no official replacement has been announced. That being said, it's no secret that G2 have long looked at Team Vitality's top laner Kaan "Naak Nako" Okan as a prime target to bolster their ranks.

Whether it be Naak Nako or someone else entirely who replaces BrokenBlade in the end, expect G2 Esports to don a whole new look once the LEC 2027 season rolls around.
