Uzi's career has recently appeared extremely "tragic".

Uzi fell into "distress" and was criticized by fans

For longtime League of Legends fans, Uzi is an extremely familiar name as he is a legendary player in the LPL region and has extremely high popularity. Even when he returned to play for EDG for a short time, Uzi also helped this team perform well and received a lot of attention. With such great fame, many viewers also think that Uzi's life after retirement will be extremely comfortable.

Uzi once helped EDG get a better look after parting ways with a series of heroes like Viper and Scout

However, things have changed dramatically in the past few months when Uzi's livestream career is "going downhill" extremely quickly. According to records from Sohu, the number of people watching Uzi's broadcasts has decreased by up to 80% and has not met the target set by the livestream platform. This guy even admitted that in December he did not receive a salary because the number of viewers was too low.

Sohu page noted Uzi's situation: "The number of Uzi's stream viewers decreased extremely sharply in December, and he did not even meet the platform's target, so he did not receive a salary."

The climax of the incident occurred on December 31 when Uzi "complained" about this issue on live broadcast. He even said words of jealousy toward Doinb when the former 2019 World Championship champion could return to compete while he couldn't. This made Uzi's fans quite angry as they thought he had made wrong moves recently and the channel's "going downhill" was the consequence this legend deserved.

"That's a problem you created yourself. Honestly, most of Uzi's fans are League of Legends fans. If you don't play League of Legends, not many people will care" - An audience frankly shared

"The problem is that he (Uzi) is very bad at playing other games. When he plays games like PUBG, he only plays to please others" - A fan commented

"What do you want us to watch, Uzi? We only watch streams when you play League of Legends" - A gamer frankly commented

A difficult new year awaits Uzi

Indeed, for the audience, Uzi is a symbol associated with League of Legends and his excellent moves when playing ADC champions. This is also Uzi's strongest point to attract viewers, but the fact that he chooses to play other games (typically PUBG) goes against this. As a result, the audience who followed Uzi because he played League of Legends gradually left when they saw him streaming PUBG, leading to the current "tragic" situation.

Uzi's reputation is inherently tied to League of Legends, so his move to other games is quite the wrong move.

It is important to know that unlike Doinb, Uzi does not have the talent to speak or an extroverted personality to the point of being willing to dance and "create content" on stream. Therefore, it is not reasonable for him to redirect content to other games (besides League of Legends) because it cannot retain the audience. Perhaps if he doesn't change and return to maximum focus on League of Legends, Uzi's livestream career will get even worse in 2025.
