For those who have followed the LPL tournament for a long time, you are surely familiar with the name Uzi. This guy not only possesses exceptional individual skills and prestigious titles but has also risen to become a brand of League of Legends in China. Therefore, when Uzi was announced to return to professional competition in the 2022 season, many were excited.
However, before the start of the LPL Summer 2022, BLG announced parting ways with the legend Uzi just after less than half a year together. This led to BLG receiving a barrage of criticism from fans as they felt betrayed when the team exploited Uzi’s fame for promotion and then “kicked” him out after such a short time.
After leaving BLG, Uzi did not express any dissatisfaction towards his former team, even though he was not treated appropriately as a legend of the LPL tournament. However, this changed during a recent broadcast, where Uzi bluntly stated that BLG this season has “no chance” to compete for any objectives.
The reason behind Uzi’s change in attitude is that he read the announcement of BLG demoting ADC Doggo to the second team and promoting a young player to the main roster. Previously, BLG also announced that they were replacing Weiwei with a younger player from the second team.
According to Uzi’s comments on air, these personnel decisions by BLG are completely wrong because both Doggo and Weiwei are skilled players. Moreover, making changes during an ongoing season is extremely poor and only weakens the team. “With such changes, BLG has no chance of competing anymore,” Uzi concluded.
As of now, BLG has only achieved 2 victories after 8 matches played in the LPL Summer 2022. The team has shown extremely poor performance in the Solo Lane positions and has become a target for opponents to exploit. Combining their poor performance with the aforementioned “disastrous” personnel decisions, the prospect of BLG being eliminated early, as Uzi mentioned, is highly likely.
