Uzi is the nickname that every esports fan will know in the mouth of League of Legends, following the game until 2019. The legendary shooter had a break during his career for health reasons. On February 17, they will return to Summoner’s Rift after more than two years.
RNG star
Thinking about the Chinese team Royal Never Give Up immediately comes to mind the biggest, former star of the band – Jian “Uzi” Zi-hao. The Chinese-born shooter is one of the most popular players of his position in the world. He’s a player who will give League of Legends everything to make his dream come true and sign for the title of world champion.
Uzi of his dream will not be able to fulfill. He made two finals at Worlds, and had to win the 2018 Mid-Season Invitational as a sufficient international success. He will mark his last presence at the world championships in 2019, where he and the team will be eliminated in the group stage.
Uzi then suspended his career. Retirement was not due to burnout or a lack of willingness to join League of Legends – on the contrary, he wanted to continue the adventure of a professional player. However, the plans were thwarted by the health situation – the Asian massacred his wrists by playing for many years, and general neglect drove him into the atrium of diabetes.
Return to the professional game
Uzi apparently couldn’t live without League of Legends, as he signed a contract with BiliBili Gaming at the end of last year. Thus, he will return to the best competition in China – League of Legends Pro League. We did not find out about the intention to continue the career then from unknowingly, because the initial leaks appeared several months earlier, and the source of the information was the player’s father himself.
Uzi will not be given an immediate chance to appear in the starting five, however. Instead, he became the team’s second goalscorer, giving way to first place in Doggo’s league matches. The long wait for Uzi’s re-debut was completed on Thursday 17th February. The event had a wide resonance in the League of Legends community around the world.
895 days after the last match, Uzi will return to Summoner’s Rift against Invictus Gaming. Chiczyk does not play the match from the very beginning – he will replace Doggo only after losing the first map. The legendary player and the team managed to catch up, but failed in the decisive part of the match. However, he will show an excellent side, which may be ensured by his permanent participation in the initial five of the organization.
