The LPL Host Appears in a “Strange” State, Causing Concern in the LoL Community
Just a few days ago, right before the First Stand 2026, an event stirred the LoL community when Rookie – the former champion of the 2018 World Championship officially “parted ways” with his girlfriend Hilda – who is also a fellow professional and a highly renowned host in the Chinese League of Legends scene. The news immediately sparked a lot of discussions, especially since Rookie and Hilda had been together for nearly a decade. After the rumors settled down to make way for First Stand 2026, MC Hilda recently drew attention when she appeared to work at the tournament with a “strange” demeanor.

During the Gen.G – JDG match, Hilda was the main host and she appeared with a clear look of fatigue and tension. Additionally, the female host stumbled over her words quite a few times – a rare occurrence since Hilda is considered a veteran in her field within the LPL region.
According to many opinions, MC Hilda may still not have regained her emotional balance, but due to her professional spirit, she does not let her personal life affect her schedule. However, this also presents a significant challenge for the host, and in fact, Hilda has faced quite a few difficulties.

For his part, Rookie was also absent from a talk show event and the program replaced him with Meiko – the veteran support player of the LPL and the 2021 World Champion. Clearly, the LPL community has not forgotten the incident involving the couple and avoiding all potential risks is almost a mandatory criterion at this time. Once public opinion contains uncertain elements, even just potential risks, it could complicate matters further.
The LPL Community Hopes the Couple Will Reunite Soon
For Rookie, after the Split 1 phase, he and the IG team have not achieved truly good results, but with the ongoing competition, many fans still hope that the former 2018 World Champion will regain his spirit and form. As for MC Hilda, her professionalism and resilience have been proven. After the personal storms, fans hope that the beautiful host will return to her best possible state as before.
