In the LPL region, known for its strong development in League of Legends and Esports, players receive high rewards along with many special benefits. It is even considered a “promised land” for players from the Land of the Morning Calm, provided they can hold their ground and establish their name. Cases like Doinb, Rookie, Scout, Viper… have all found success here and become legends of the region through their glory, especially the World Championship titles they won with their respective teams.
However, not everyone who brings glory to the LPL receives appropriate treatment. Many players who have risen to fame in the LPL or World Championship end up facing a difficult fate. Some of these players are not rewarded as much as their teammates who play the “visual” role in the team. Moreover, they also fail to meet the professional standards. This leads to poor performance in matches and minimal attention during livestreams. Among them, Ning – the former 2018 World Champion is perhaps a prime example.
Since returning to the professional LPL, Ning’s career has plummeted. He joined a mediocre team in LPL, Ultra Prime, at the end of 2022 but left just after one unsuccessful year of competition. With not much attention during livestreams, Ning was forced to create content or challenges to attract audience interest.
Recently, Ning undertook a very dangerous action that even posed a risk to his life. It remains unclear whether it was a challenge or another reason, but he drank water from an air purifier. Notably, Ning posted about this on his personal Weibo before his condition worsened.
Even his former teammate Baolan was shocked by Ning’s actions. Meanwhile, the audience expressed confusion and advised the former Invictus Gaming star to go to the hospital immediately for a check-up. Everyone knows that the water from an air purifier accumulates dirt. Therefore, this type of water is extremely toxic.
Ning’s actions are extremely dangerous and should not be encouraged for any reason. Currently, as Ning has not returned, no one knows how the health condition of the 2018 World Champion has progressed.
