Not long ago, there were reports that several young players from Vietnam would have the opportunity to join the Challengers team of DRX – the champion of World Championship 2022. Of course, whether this turns out to be true or not, one fact has been confirmed: LCK teams have shown great interest in smaller regions, and VCS is a prime example. Previously, Tlong also joined Fredit BRION Challengers for a season and made certain performances. Therefore, this news has a solid basis.
However, previously, many opinions expressed concern for the young players preparing to join DRX. The “example” of Tlong remains fresh, as upon returning from LCK, this player faced a tumultuous career. Not only did he not get the chance to compete after joining Team Whales, but recently, after the offseason transfer period of 2023, Tlong also did not find a new team. The reason is said to stem from poor communication skills and professional abilities, as Tlong did not meet expectations while playing directly on the Korean server and still couldn’t reach Challenger.
But recently, viewers were surprised to discover that one of the two young players rumored to join DRX Challengers has reached the Top 10 of Korean Challenger. Notably, this player’s tagname has “DRX” in front, which can be seen as a confirmation of the earlier rumors about joining the “Dragon”. Accordingly, this young player is LazyFeel (real name Bảo Minh), currently holding 607 LP, ranking 10th in the Top Challenger of the brutally competitive and elite League of Legends environment.
For those who may not know, LazyFeel’s achievement is even more remarkable than the current star players of T1. This is because, due to playing less ranked games and being busy with competitions, as well as various subjective and objective issues, 4 out of 5 members of T1 have only reached Master, while Keria is still stuck at Diamond 1.
LazyFeel’s achievements are truly commendable. In the professional League of Legends environment, of course, rank is just one of the factors to evaluate. However, reaching the Top 10 Challenger also shows that he indeed possesses very high skills. This will serve as a foundation for LazyFeel to make a greater impression, and for DRX to consider giving him a chance to showcase himself in the near future.
