The reigning League of Legends<\/a> Oceanic Pro League (OPL) champions, Legacy Esports, have completed the signing of ex-MAMMOTH Academy mid laner James \u201cHalo\u201d Giacoumakis on a six-month contract.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old Australian LoL pro becomes the second mid laner on Legacy’s League of Legends roster, marking his return to the organisation after a spell with Legacy Genesis in 2018.<\/p>\n

With Legacy Genesis, Halo claimed a seventh-place finish at the Oceanic Challenger Series (OCS) 2018 Regular Season before leaving the team in November 2018. After spending six months as a free agent, Halo joined MAMMOTH Academy in May 2019 and led his new team to a gold medal in the OCS 2019 Regular Season and a runner-up finish in the playoffs.<\/p>\n

With his return to Legacy Esports, Halo will likely share time with James \u201cTally\u201d Shute, who spent the majority of his LoL esports career as a top laner before transitioning to the mid lane during this year’s OPL Split 1.<\/p>\n
