(Thethaovanhoa.vn) - Former 2019 Worlds champion, Doinb, makes a significant decision for his future post-LNG Esports departure.
Up to the present moment, the name Doinb is likely not unfamiliar to the global LoL community. Rising to prominence with innovative gameplay and a high ability to make breakthroughs, Doinb reached the pinnacle of glory with FunPlus Phoenix at Worlds 2019. He remains one of the rare LPL players who has somewhat maintained form and determination after winning the biggest international title in the LoL scene.

However, time spares no one, including players who are as dedicated and hardworking as Doinb. Seasons 2021 and 2022 can be said to be the downturn in the former champion's performance. He did not succeed at Worlds 2021 and failed to secure a spot for Worlds 2022. Moreover, Doinb's performances raised questions as he did not shine prominently in the roster of the team nicknamed 'Chow Yun-Fat Unicorns'.

In the late transfer window of 2022, Doinb was a highly respected name, releasing a considerable amount of transfer information that later mostly turned out to be true. However, he still kept his own future tightly under wraps for the new season. It wasn't until the final days of the transfer window that LNG Esports officially announced their parting ways with Doinb, revealing the former champion's future.

More surprisingly, Doinb himself declared that he would take a break following LNG's announcement. Specifically, Doinb shared: 'I've lost my confidence. If you had asked me last year if I could go to Worlds with young teammates, I would have confidently said yes. But this year is different, and I've decided to take a break to regain my confidence. Many teams have contacted me. But I want to join a team that can win championships. I can't join a team that can't compete for titles. I also can't determine how long I'll rest, it could be short but it could also be very long'

Doinb's decision, while surprising, is entirely understandable. In 2023, Doinb will turn 27, marking him as a seasoned veteran in the LoL community. Moreover, if he continues to play with declining performance, his reputation and credibility will be significantly affected. Additionally, he also needs to spend time with his family, and it's very likely that Doinb will make more important decisions for his future during this upcoming break.
