Quad Reportedly Set To Join Shopify Rebellion For 2027

South Korean mid laner Song “Quad” Su-hyeong is reportedly nearing a transfer from FlyQuest to Shopify Rebellion before the 2027 LCS season. He is expected to replace Yoo “Zinie” Baek-jin, who started for Shopify throughout 2026.

Shopify considered retaining Zinie before pursuing Quad. Zinie is reportedly exploring opportunities with Team Vitality and Natus Vincere.

Quad joined FlyQuest in early 2024 after playing for DRX, Gen.G and Nongshim RedForce. He began with FlyQuest Challengers and won the NACL Spring 2024 title before replacing Nicolaj “Jensen” Jensen on the main roster.

FlyQuest won the LCS Summer 2024 title with a 3-1 victory over Team Liquid. The team then reached the 2024 World Championship quarterfinals, where it lost 3-2 to Gen.G after taking the series to five games.

FlyQuest won LTA North Split 2 and Split 3 in 2025 before claiming the Americas championship. The team defeated Vivo Keyd Stars 3-1 in the LTA Championship final to win the regional title and qualify for the World Championship.

FlyQuest finished fourth in the 2026 Spring Split. In the Summer Playoffs, it defeated Sentinels 3-0 before losing to Team Liquid. Shopify then eliminated FlyQuest 3-2 in the lower bracket.

FlyQuest’s final tournament of 2026 was the Demacia Cup Global Invitational in China. The team reached the quarterfinals after beating Shopify 2-1 and RED Canids 2-0 in the Swiss Stage. Team WE then defeated FlyQuest 3-2.

Quad’s reported signing would be part of Shopify’s planned roster changes. The organization is also expected to part ways with head coach Seong “Reven” Sang-hyeon, who has led its League of Legends team since 2024.

Shopify is considering changes in the bot lane. Massu, Tactical and Sushee are candidates for the ADC position, while Vulcan and Isles are being considered for support. No roster or coaching changes have been officially confirmed.

Shopify finished the 2026 season without a title or a World Championship berth. After losing to Cloud9 in the Summer Playoffs, the team defeated Sentinels 3-2 and FlyQuest 3-2 before losing 3-1 to LYON. Shopify later failed to reach the playoffs at the Demacia Cup Global Invitational. The organization has not won an LCS title or qualified for the World Championship since entering the league in 2024.
