In recent days, alongside the vibrant developments of the offseason transfer market, audiences LPL have also been concerned about a very serious issue. Accordingly, the CEO of Douyu, one of the largest and most prestigious livestream platforms in the land of a billion people, has been arrested by the police due to allegations of organizing illegal gambling. This news is truly shocking, especially when many streamers from the platform have also been summoned for investigation. For those who don’t know, this platform gathers many stars from LPL, both active players and retired ones.
And one of the most active figures on this platform from the LPL star scene is undoubtedly the 2019 World Champion Doinb. He can even be said to have become a true “tycoon” among streamers in the land of a billion people. In addition to his unique and money-scented content, Doinb knows how to attract attention through various League of Legends professional activities. Recently, Doinb and Uzi represented the LPL as two streamers participating in a co-stream live at the finals of the Worlds 2023.
Notably, although there has been no official information about his involvement, the co-stream for Worlds 2023 was one of the last times people saw Doinb online. For those who don’t know, since the 2023 Worlds final (which coincides with the Douyu CEO’s scandal), Doinb has been completely absent from all social media and livestream platforms. This is also the longest offline period for this former player who is passionate about making money.
Additionally, audiences recently “spotted” the IP address of Umi – Doinb’s wife appearing in Korea. Not long ago, there were reports that a former Worlds champion had purchased a house worth hundreds of billions in the Hannam The Hill area – one of the most expensive and unique luxury neighborhoods in Asia. Many speculations have begun to arise about whether Doinb has gone to Korea to “hide away.”
However, this is currently still just a hypothesis. Audiences still hope that Doinb may simply be taking a longer break or visiting home longer during his rare returns to his homeland after years of fighting abroad.
