In addition to the collective awards, he received several individual accolades in 2018: he was MVP of the year, import of the year, and best LPL mid-laner. He also represented the LPL in the 2015, 2018 and 2020 All-Stars. And he is famous for his Syndra, LeBlanc and Orianna.
Rookie started his career with KT Rolster Arrows, won the 2014 Champions Summer, and moved to China to compete in the LPL with IG. After that, he hit 1,000 kills on April 13, 2017, and became the second player after Uzi to get 2,500 kills in the LPL earlier this year.
The Korean is considered one of the best players in League of Legends due to his mechanical abilities and his prowess with many champions. The 24-year-old left Invictus Gaming as a free agent and his next fate remains uncertain.
