“When he left Top Esports, he became even stronger. “369 is super strong on JDG right now, but I feel like he wasn’t a standout player on the team with me,” Knight explained. Distance has maybe done both players a favor though - 369 making it to Worlds on JD Gaming with new-found form. Skul: The Hero Slayer was announced Apon the Indie World Showcase for a Nintendo Switch release later.

You could put the strongest five players on a team and it still might not work if they don’t compliment each other in both playstyle and personality.įortunately, it seems like Top Esports have found a winning formula, even if it’s without Knight’s long-term teammate. Welcome to the trophy guide for Maid of Sker. WarHorse directly blamed 369’s champion pool for their losses in a documentary outlining their 2021 run.įrom what Knight has said, it seems TES’ team environment has changed for the better. Their old coach, Chen ‘WarHorse’ Ju-Chih, didn’t stay with the team in 2021. This is a stark contrast to what Top Esports team environment looked like in 2021. I think that’s the key to how we’ve synergized so well.” We all knew that everyone has the same goal: victory. Even though we lost a little bit at the beginning of the split, after we had a deep talk and conversation with each other. The man with the magic hand, knight takes the fight OVER! #LPL /BuQajzWXdV- LPL August 14, 2022 When we first got together, it hadn’t been a long time since we started playing together as a team. “At first, a lot of players on our teams were from other teams. But thanks to Huang ‘Wayward’ Ren-Xing coming into the top lane in Summer and improved performance from everyone on the team after a year of reshuffles, Top Esports seemingly found their way. This doesn’t exactly sound like a stellar start. Wang ‘Zhou’ Xu-Zhou was underperforming in support, and Ling ‘Mark’ Xu had to be brought on early in Spring to try and bring the team back. Worlds 2019 MVP Gao ‘Tian’ Tain-Liang joined Top Esports immediately after his disappointing Worlds 2021 performance on FPX due to injury. Zoom looked like one of the best top laners in the LPL, but his performance through Spring was mediocre. Top Esports didn’t have the best start to their 2022 season.īai ‘369’ Jia-Hao was off the team after he struggled through 2021, replaced by Zhang ‘Zoom’ Xing-Ran. Turning a “slow start” into a Summoner’s Cup DoinB (FPX 2019), Rookie (iG 2018), and Lee ‘Scout’ He-chan (EDG 2021) are all imports from South Korea. While Xiaohu has won MSI a few times, we’ve never seen a Chinese mid laner take a world title.
