Hal obviously noticed this and decided to take to Twitter and ask the question himself: “Sooooo controller switch ???!?!?!!”.

While it’s clear Hal is being sarcastic and isn’t serious about making the switch, it’d definitely be interesting to see him performing in the ALGS on controller.

Either way, the TSM pro has proven he isn’t limited to MnK and can wipe out the competition on controller if needed.

Let’s hope Hal shows off more controller skills on stream in the near future, as it’s always fun to watch.
