LMHT News Roundup, December 9th: HLE protects Gumayusi, LCK causes controversy, Beryl unemployed
Video summarizing the hottest news about League of Legends (LoL) on December 9th, including HLE protecting Gumayusi, T1 fans' reactions to LCK's actions, and Beryl's career situation.
This makes Gumayusi's fans support the new team even though HLE cannot be compared to T1 in terms of achievements or memories.
This makes Gumayusi's fans support the new team even though HLE cannot be compared to T1 in terms of achievements or memories.
With these images appearing in LCK's documentary, many viewers believe that T1 took advantage of these attacks to create content, making T1 fans and especially Gumayusi fans extremely angry.
It can be said that T1 is the one under pressure, not the players but the upper management and the team. Just one bad result and the negative wave will explode again.
Having to return to the role of streamer is considered an early farewell from Beryl to professional League of Legends.
Many people regret it but admit that this is an inevitable consequence as professional League of Legends is heading towards the future and teams must also meet the criteria of salary caps and austerity. Investing in veteran players like Beryl is both risky and makes the salary fund swell up uselessly, which will not be a priority option.
