Counter Logic Gaming Adds VoiD to Its Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Roster

Counter Logic Gaming has added Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Sheik master James “VoiD” Makekau-Tyson as their latest team member. Many consider VoiD to be one of the best Sheiks in the world, alongside Mr-R and TSM|ZeRo, pushing the Sheik meta forward with his trademark “VoiD” combos which utilize precise perfect pivots, needles, and his quick reactions to deal massive damage. VoiD joins Tyrell “NAKAT” Coleman as CLG’s second Smash 4 player.

VoiD is ranked 2nd on the SoCal Power Ranking behind ZeRo, and 8th on the Panda Global Smash 4 Rankings, making him quite the pick up for CLG. There are still plenty of high-level players who are yet unsigned, so there could be many more high profile signings as the summer of Smash continues.
