It's a pity that this former World Championship player is about to end his career in such a sad way.
The former World Championship 2019 king is about to retire in disappointment
In recent weeks, the transfer market at LPL has been quite exciting as a series of "blockbuster" deals have been revealed. A typical example is the two former champions of World Championship 2018 - Rookie and TheShy reuniting with IG or Peyz suddenly moving to JDG to fill the void left by Ruler. These famous deals have breathed new life into the LPL region and brought great confidence to the audience.

However, a notable name named LWX "disappeared" in this year's transfer window. At LPL Spring 2024, LWX is still playing for RNG but up to now, there is no information about whether the former 2019 World Championship champion will re-sign or find a new home. Even in a recent broadcast, LWX's close friend - Doinb - also revealed that this guy is about to retire because there is no longer a place to play in the LPL.
Doinb recently shared that LWX is about to retire because he cannot find a place in the LPL
"To be honest, in the future, it will be very difficult to see my friend LWX play. He will no longer play in the LPL but will be "healed", maybe once a month on livestream. Even "He doesn't even bother to go on air anymore and just retire. It's a pity for him, I don't know what LWX plans to do for a living" - Doinb shared on live broadcast.
In fact, after winning Worlds 2019, LWX's achievements and performance gradually decreased with each season. The 2024 season is considered a "disaster" for LWX when his FPX cannot reach the top 10 group stages in the spring or summer tournament. Coming to LPL Spring 2024, LWX's RNG only got 14th place. This caused LWX to lose its official position in RNG to Huanfeng. And since then, this player has only participated in "friendly" tournaments such as the "Old People's Cup".

According to Doinb, LWX is a person who is very shy about communicating with the audience and just wants to focus on playing games. With this personality, LWX is not suitable to be a streamer like Doinb and in fact, this guy rarely goes on air. It is important to know that streamer work is a profession that many players choose after retirement when they can take advantage of their past reputation to make a living. However, LWX does not seem to be suitable for this profession, so he will have many difficulties in making a living after retirement.

To be fair, LWX still has a dream career when he won the World Championship as well as the LPL. However, it's sad that the last phase of LWX's career was a series of days of declining performance and not being able to maintain his position at RNG. This is truly a sad ending for a player who won the World Championship like LWX.
