When Weibo Gaming was founded, the LPL’s community’s instant reaction was to relate it with “old”, “ancient”, the image of a wobbly elder, obstinate against the tides of youth.

When Weibo Gaming lost during the Spring Season playoffs, people dismissed the team quickly. Filled with big names but never performed up to their former glory.

It changed with that fated phone call when The Shy called Daeny, “I have some great and friendly teammates, I like them. I think we need some help, can you help us?”

Daeny arrived at ShangHai HongQiao airport in May 2023, and then everything changed. The change was granular at first. Players are finally communicating with each other. They are no longer that one-time playoff team. That makes me very happy.

Yet after they had made it to the finals, it dawned on me the reason I wanted them to win.

Because with each win, I know I can see them play for another series. It brings me no greater joy just to see my team play for another set, another series.

Just one more Bo1, just one more Bo3, just one more Bo5. It keeps going on and on. Now it is the finale, the last final act of 2023.

Pray for WeiBo Gaming.

#Born to Win.
