As the 2022 World Championship (Worlds) is about to conclude, many teams worldwide have begun their transfer activities. For instance, in Europe, G2 Esports is the most notable name as they are eyeing stars like Hans sama, Mikyx… for the upcoming season.
Meanwhile, in the Asian region, player Doinb has revealed some rather disappointing news for LPL fans. Specifically, Doinb stated that many Korean stars will return to the LCK from the LPL during the upcoming transfer period. The reason is that the LCK teams currently have a lot of money to spend and upgrade their rosters.
“You might not believe it, but in the next season, there will be very few Korean players in the LPL. Many Korean stars will return to the LCK. I’ve heard that they (LCK teams) have prepared a lot of money to bring in quality players. Any Korean player who stays in the LPL must have a strong affection for this league,” Doinb disclosed during a live stream.
What Doinb shared is completely valid as there have been numerous reports in recent days about stars like Scout, Viper, and Kanavi returning to the LCK. Coupled with the success of the LCK region at the 2022 Worlds, the return of these Korean stars from the LPL to the LCK is entirely plausible.
If the aforementioned stars return to Korea, the LCK 2023 season will be extremely exciting with many noteworthy matchups. What could be better than watching ShowMaker, Chovy, Faker, Scout, Kanavi, Viper… every week? This could even help the LCK dethrone the LPL as the most competitive league in the world.
