“With much enthusiasm for the future, and a tinge of bittersweet emotions for the past, I am announcing my retirement from professionally playing League Of Legends.

Finally, from the bottom of my heart, I want to say thank you to all my friends, fans, and family (especially you mom) for supporting me in chasing my dreams. I will forever be grateful for my time as a player and hope you continue to support me as I take on my new role as the Head Coach for the 100Thieves Academy team.”
