SourceSupport pairing Gothic- and Hyuga is vital to PuckChamp’s vision game
Match data from PuckChamp’s tilt with Nemiga show Gothic- and Hyuga taking on heavy warding and utility burdens, indicating that their vision and map-control decisions will be crucial against Zero Tenacity’s spread-out farming patterns.
