Popular insider LEC Wooloo has claimed that Zdravets "Hylissang" Iliev Galabov, Fnatic's highly decorated support, will be joining MAD Lions for the League of Legends LEC 2023 season. He made the claims in a tweet on November 9, 2022.

Apart from this shortcoming, Hylissang also struggles in the enchanter support meta where champions like Lulu, Yuumi, and Renata are more
