Hai jungle for C9
What!?
Hai is the profit tho~ most of c9's victories where due to his shotcalling. And with him in the jungle he will be able to watch all the lanes and call shots even easier than being in mid and having to keep his attention on people like bjerg and fenix
Right. It's actually not that crazy of an idea. Junglers have taken a back seat this season, and function as a second support. This would allow Hai to have his presence as a shotcaller, but not having to perform 100%. Mid-laners on the other hand are expected to carry and be ahead. As you point out, that would be extremely difficult for Hai in the midlane with his injury. At the very least, they have really nothing else to lose. With TDK making a comeback they could face relegation if they don't start racking up wins.
yes and lets not forget with this tank meta most junglers are tank. And as shot caller hai is used to initiating on champs like zed or lissandra anyway so being able to still be an initiator is a good point for him as well so it makes his job easier to slide into.
Hai was also the jungler for the team when it formed back in the day with Wild turtle. He moved to mid when they got meteos. People forget. Or just haven't been watching as long i guess haha
All you have to do is just put Hai on Nunu and build tank with a little AP.... It's mechanically easy, Hai can focus on predicting the other teams movements and then be there. Tank Nunu is really hard to keep out of your jungle and has great objective control.
