Cloud9 promoting academy Top laner fudge into Main roster for LCS – Who is Fudge?

Ibrahim “Fudge” Allami is an Australian League of Legends player, who joined the Cloud9 Academy roster at the start of 2020. Since his arrival, the team has won both the LCS academy league in Spring and in Summer, and has been titled the best North American academy team this year.

Who will Fudge be replacing?

Fudge’s main role in League of Legends is to take care of the Top lane. With the recent announcement of Cloud9 parting ways with Licorice, it only makes sense for Fudge to receive the promotion, and heading into the main LCS squad.

Cloud9 told me last week that I won’t be a part of the team in 2021. I’m so proud I could help bring the trophy home for all of the C9 fans while I was here. Changing teams is part of being a pro and I’m ready to compete with a new team next year.

After Cloud9’s disappointing end to the 2020 season, a change was certain. And with Cloud9 having been pretty successful with Academy player promotions, it will be exciting to see this lineup change.
