The return of this former World Championship player does not seem to have received a response from the community.

The former World Championship king turned into a "farce" when announcing his return

In the recent transfer window at LPL, TheShy's return after a year of rest attracted a lot of attention from the community. Even when he returned and played for IG at Demacia Cup 2024, TheShy also showed many positive performances. And unlike his colleague, another former World Championship king named Doinb also recently declared loudly on live broadcast that he will have a "strong comeback" in the upcoming season.

Doinb recently confirmed on stream that he will return to play in the LPL in the 2025 season

"This time it's real, I will return to play in the LPL in the upcoming 2025 season. I even have a photo shoot schedule with the new team for them to create content, preparing for my return tomorrow." "You can rest assured, my new team is very strong and has a chance to compete fairly with all opponents in the LPL. When there is an official announcement, everyone will know" - Doinb shared confidently news on live broadcast.

Doinb is likely to join NIP as this team recently followed him on Weibo

Immediately after Doinb shared the above information, many viewers pointed out that NIP will be this guy's new destination. The reason comes from the fact that NIP recently unexpectedly followed Doinb on Weibo and posted a happy birthday post. However, this return of the former World Championship 2019 king became a "farce" for the LPL audience when Doinb himself recently had a disappointing performance. Specifically, many viewers sarcastically said that someone who lost miserably in the "Old People's Cup" friendly tournament like Doinb would have no hope of returning to the LPL.

"Doinb recently lost miserably in the "Old People's Cup" but does anyone think he can compete in the LPL?" - An audience member asked a sarcastic question

"He (Doinb) is just a reserve, how can he be good enough to play in the LPL" - Another player agreed

"You know what's more ridiculous? Some people actually think that NIP is a strong team thanks to Doinb's appearance" - Another gamer shared

The "stormy" return of the former World Championship champion

It is important to know that after the official announcement from NIP, the official Mid laner of this team will be Neny. Therefore, even if Doinb joins NIP, he will likely only play a reserve role in the upcoming season. Not stopping there, as soon as they return, Doinb and NIP will face many difficulties in the LPL Split1 2025 group stage when they are in the same group as the "super team" IG. In addition, other teams like FPX or RNG are extremely annoying names and can defeat NIP.

NIP falls into a very difficult group in LPL Split 1 2025 when they have to compete with "super team" IG and annoying opponents like FPX and RNG

Therefore, Doinb's return in the upcoming season in the NIP shirt (if any) is not going to be fair at all. Basically, NIP in recent years has only stopped being an average team in the LPL (top 5-8) and cannot compete for titles with other strong opponents. It's clear that Doinb and the NIP team will have to try extremely hard in the upcoming season to increase competitiveness and aim for goals like the top 4 or the LPL title. If not, NIP will likely continue with its top 5-8 position while Doinb's comeback will continue to become a "farce" for the community.
