Lee Yoon-jae or Rush is a South Korean League of Legends player who was most recently jungler for Cloud9 in the North American LCS.[1][2][3]

In November 2014 Rush joined team LMQ in the NA LCS, which was rebranded as Team Impulse a month later. Rush became known for his carry style jungling and strong mechanics on play making champions. Rush was the 2015 NA LCS summer split MVP.[4][5] Rush led TIP to 4th place in the spring split and 3rd place in the summer split, but failed to qualify for the world championship after falling to Cloud 9 in the world qualifiers.

In November 2015, Rush joined Cloud 9 along with former Gravity support Bunny FuFuu.[6][7][8] Cloud 9 managed to reach 3rd place in the spring split. Rush played on the main Cloud 9 roster until April, when former C9 jungler Meteos returned to the main team. Rush moved to Cloud 9's challenger team until June 14, 2016. After being demoted to the challenger team, he decided leave Cloud 9 to return to South Korea to stream and look for opportunities on Korean teams.[9]

Rush would return to competitive play after an 18 month break signing with KT Rolster[]. He debuted in the final series of the season against Afreeca Freecs (A game that was ultimately a throw away due to their playoff berth being secured).[10]
