We talked about Qingtian a few days ago, and there is a player who is very similar to Qingtian, but the situation is even better, and that is XLB. Qingtian can at least play LDL and have a chance to return to LPL. But XLB has already announced that it will retire from the professional arena and switch to live streaming.
XLB announced its retirement.
XLB posted on his blog: "When I first arrived at RNG and won the German Cup, I really thought I was the child of destiny. Later, when I arrived at LPL, I realized that I had a lot of shortcomings, and I always felt that my starting point was too high and it was unfair to my strength, and I was scolded for a little mistake. And then to the next few years of substitution, I was really sad that I didn't play!For me, V5 should be the last time I can play. It's a pity that I didn't grasp it, and then I became a substitute in the back, and I slowly lost my confidence, and I always felt that it was time for me to end. ”
The two clubs that have been in the past, RNG and NIP, as well as friends Langx, Zhuo and Xiran, all came to cheer for XLB.
"Thought I was the Child of Destiny".
Before XLB officially played LPL, he participated in the official variety show "Beyond the Hero", won the championship with star Zhang Binbin and popular anchor Da Sima, and won the annual MVP.
XLB is also produced by PDD's YM, and eventually joined the LPL giant RNG team. XLB did not disappoint RNG and helped the team win the 2019 Demacia Cup when they arrived
The well-known commentator Ze Yuan praised XLB for making RNG no longer need Karsa. (Although Karsa has also become a pizza now, Karsa was the top jungler in the LPL at that time.) ）
It is rumored on the Internet that the XLB transfer fee is as high as 30 million, although this probability is false, but the transfer fee is indeed not low, PDD once sent a barrage and said: "XLB is really not a loss, Lao Tzu is letting the blood of RNG." ”
XLB's real name is also very domineering, called Bruce Lee, and the same name as the greatest Chinese kung fu superstar. XLB has also taken makeup photos imitating Bruce Lee.
With a heavy aura, plus YM's Ning and Tian are both world champions FMVP, XLB said that he thought he was a child of destiny at first, and he really didn't brag about it.
"It's hard to feel that I didn't hit it".
Unfortunately, there are many who are called "geniuses", but very few end up being "successful". XLB didn't go well in LPL and didn't play out in RNG. RNG gives XLB a chance to put it in the second team for workouts, but XLB can't control lightning even in LDL. Later, XLB transferred to V5 (later renamed NIP), and he still played sometimes and sometimes substituted, but this year he completely lost the competition with Shadow and completely lost the opportunity to play.
In fact, XLB is very powerful in playing rank, and it is more than 1,000 points for the king all year round, and the winning rate is more than 60%.
Friends who have watched XLB live broadcast also say that XLB Rank is very C.
But if you watch more games, you will know that the rank score is not completely positively correlated with the performance of the field, some people have a low rank score, but the game is very c, and some people have a high rank score, but the game is average. Maybe it has something to do with the mentality, everyone is relaxed when playing rank, but when playing games, only the strong can withstand the pressure.
XLB outlook.
However, what is better than Qingtian is that XLB is quite suitable for live broadcasting. XLB has been playing in the LPL for several years and has accumulated a certain amount of popularity. XLB has a good image and a lively personality, as a Cantonese person, he is naturally good at singing Cantonese songs. XLB live broadcast Rank, to the field he is familiar with, can play well, play a very good operation. If RNG misses the old love and boosts it again, XLB live broadcast will inevitably earn more than playing professionally.
Everyone has a field that they are good at, and not everyone can make great achievements in their careers, make achievements, and win several championships in a row. It is also a good strategy to recognize the cruel truth, retreat bravely from the rapids, and find a path that suits you as soon as possible.
