Perhaps anyone in the League of Legends (LoL) community knows that Doinb is one of the players who knows how to attract attention. The former FunPlus Phoenix (FPX) star is not only famous for his talent but also for his lively and passionate personality.
Moreover, Doinb is also regarded as the “radio station” of the Chinese LoL scene. Many viewers want to watch his channel simply because it’s a great source for unexpected news and extremely noteworthy insider information. Because of this, Doinb has faced severe fines from the tournament organizers before.
However, Doinb has also been involved in conflicts with teammates before. Specifically, during the Spring 2021 season, there were numerous rumors about Doinb having conflicts with his former teammate Tian, the ex-jungle player of FPX. In fact, the tension between these two players was so severe that Tian considered leaving the team at that time. Although things eventually settled down, no one believes these two players are as close as they once were.
Recently, Doinb has found himself in conflict with a teammate on his new team. Specifically, the person involved this time is Ale, the top laner of LNG Esports (LNG). Fans noticed that when Doinb and Ale met in ranked matches, the two players were completely cold towards each other and had no interaction whatsoever. For someone as socially connected as Doinb, this is quite unusual. Even with those he has never been teammates with, like Knight, or former teammates like Lwx, Doinb always interacts very enthusiastically.
Additionally, in another development, Ale revealed that the team has owed him salary for up to 5 months. This includes his streaming salary, and according to him, the amount consists of both cash and gifts from fans.
Furthermore, Ale mentioned that he regrets not leaving during the last transfer window at the end of the 2021 season. According to Ale, there was a team that offered him a contract worth up to 8 figures, and that team’s ranking in the LPL was also good. However, he ultimately chose to stay with LNG. This is in stark contrast to Doinb’s statement, where this mid-laner asserted that LNG’s situation is very good.
According to many opinions, the internal conflicts are the reason LNG is not performing as expected. However, this situation is currently just one-sided information from Ale. LNG and the LPL organizers have not yet made any statements regarding the matter.
