After a long period of adhering to social distancing measures against the Covid-19 pandemic, only recently has the Spring 2020 VCS champion – Team Flash – had the chance to gather and celebrate their newly acquired championship title.
In images capturing the “celebratory feast” of Team Flash players that were just posted in the fan community group a few hours ago, FL fans directed their attention to a mysterious figure appearing in the frame.
The reason for the mystery is that this person was not photographed clearly, and while other FL members were fully visible, this guy was only partially captured… with his hair covering most of his face.
Shortly after, a clip showcasing the entire team, including manager Phuong Nguyen, was posted, and once again this mysterious figure appeared. In fact, towards the end of the clip, this person was even caught communicating in… Korean.
At this point, there seems to be no doubt left, as the build, hairstyle, and language of this individual perfectly match Profit – the former SKT T1 (now T1) player who is living and streaming in Ho Chi Minh City.
If the above images aren’t convincing enough for the gaming community, there’s another strange “coincidence” here. Earlier today, Profit posted on his Fit Gaming fan page announcing a break from streaming due to other commitments.
Taking a break from streaming for 1-2 sessions is normal, but being busy right at the time Team Flash is having a party is quite a strange coincidence, isn’t it?
One noteworthy point is that previously, commentator Ling Cao Thu confirmed that the VCS currently has no regulations allowing foreign players to compete. However, Profit’s appearance with Team Flash suggests otherwise.
It’s important to note that the VCS has never had a precedent for using foreign players, so the existence of any regulations limiting foreign players has received little attention from the gaming community. It’s also possible that this regulation (if it really exists) will be amended or supplemented to support the demand for strengthening teams.
Another dilemma is that Team Flash currently has two top laners, Stark and Yoshino, so wouldn’t the addition of Profit – also a top laner – make the team’s roster even more cumbersome?
Perhaps the main issue lies in Yoshino’s health. We all remember that the former GAM player has been known to have respiratory issues. It was precisely due to health concerns that Yoshino was unable to participate in the recent VCS Spring 2020 finals.
In summary, the possibility of Profit joining VCS, specifically Team Flash, is becoming increasingly clear, and will the presence of the former T1 player mark a historic turning point for the development of League of Legends in Vietnam? Let’s wait and see!
