Rookie will retire if Invictus Gaming fails this season.
In fact, information about Rookie’s retirement has started in the Chinese media for a long time. Some sources on Weibo confirmed immediately.
After the peak of his career in the late 2018 – early 2019 period, with two championships CKTG 2018 and LPL Spring 2019, Rookie was satisfied and did not have much motivation to play.
Recently, PDD – Former founder of eStar team, confirmed this rumor. The streamer guy is nicknamed “loudspeaker” by the Chinese League of Legends community. He holds a lot of “confidential” information among players. He confirmed that Rookie will definitely retire when League of Legends season 2021 ends. If Invictus Gaming’s performance doesn’t improve.
There is a perception that the possibility of this team being empty this year (without titles, without winning tickets to Worlds series) is very high. This means that the prospect of Captain Rookie “retirement” is coming very close.
This year’s LPL was pretty chaotic.
No team possessed absolute strength. Besides, there is also no reliable team in competing for titles. But with IG alone, their performance is really poor. Rookie is no longer the world’s top midlaner. But no IG fan wants to see the prospect of Rookie leaving the team. On this team’s side, they even have to face another problem, which is the possibility that TheShy will also follow their seniors to leave.
Even the Korean duo of IG once cherished retirement at the same time. Although TheShy is only 22 years old this year. At that time, the former world champion 2018 will face a serious force crisis, because 4 out of 5 stars are no longer be in the squad in season 2022.
