While the teams and players who won the championships in the Riot system for Spring 2022 were preparing for MSI 2022, other teams were in a break period. However, due to the impact of the pandemic, some foreign players in China could not return home. At this moment, ranking and livestreaming are how these players find entertainment. It’s not hard to spot SofM or TheShy trying hard to rank more frequently than before.

A few days ago, “Shy ca” had a rather poor rank climbing journey. Currently, the Korean rank has been warned about a surge in game ruining, trolling, and elo boosting… Meanwhile, since players have entered a break period, it’s not easy to find high-quality players anymore. However, despite losing many games, it did not stop TheShy from continuing to try hard during these boring days of isolation.

Moreover, besides top lane, TheShy has also been playing more in the bot lane position. In fact, he has had certain achievements in this role. Recently, “Shy ca” managed to solo kill his opponent using the champion Xayah. Notably, TheShy achieved this without losing a single drop of health, meaning he took no damage from the opponent. After this solo kill, TheShy excitedly declared on stream: “Huanfeng, from now on you will be the AD. Next season, you go play top, okay!”
A little while ago, TheShy also noted that currently, the AD position is the most favorable position and receives the most benefits in a match. Meanwhile, the top lane position is quite dangerous. And because the Teleport spell has been changed, top lane players will have a phase where they have minimal impact on the game compared to before.

However, this may just be TheShy’s opinion, and in reality, he may not change roles. In addition to experimenting with a daring approach, if TheShy moves to AD, WBG would then need to find a quality top laner to replace him. This would be considered nearly impossible since currently, both LCK and LPL have no quality top laners left without a team.
