As we know, the Vietnamese League of Legends community has recently been inundated with numerous news stories, though not in a very positive atmosphere. One of these stories is the match-fixing scandal that can be considered the largest in the history of the top League of Legends tournament in Vietnam. When viewed on a global scale, this incident is also not trivial and has garnered significant attention from the international community. Notably, many individuals implicated were ones that the audience did not expect. However, one name that had been silent and “disappeared” before the incident has unexpectedly reappeared.
Specifically, this is Coach R. – one of the eight individuals handed a permanent ban from all activities related to Riot following the match-fixing scandal and was previously a member of the Rainbow Warriors team – which had the most members involved in this scandal among the eight teams in the VCS. Before Riot officially announced the investigation, this coach had vanished. Following that, there were reports that this individual had borrowed a significant amount of money, reaching several hundred million, and then fled. Even when Riot and the VCS organizing committee announced the investigation results, this individual had not returned until recently.
Notably, in his first move after returning, the coach affirmed he would stream to clarify all information about himself during this time, especially stating that he “is not fleeing from gambling debts or running away with company money as the internet has fabricated”. Additionally, Coach R. confirmed that the livestream would help fans “see more clearly the true faces of many people and the situation”. The livestream is scheduled to take place at 6 PM on June 12.
Below the post, many comments still express confidence in the former coach. However, the overall sentiment of the community is to wait and see what new developments the VCS drama will bring, especially as the situation has nearly been resolved.
Currently, after the post, Coach R. has not made any further moves. However, it is likely that the VCS drama will not end here and may even surprise the audience if Coach R. truly reveals the “behind-the-scenes” stories that have never been disclosed.
