The former EHOME player has already taken part in several matches for LVG, playing in Huya DarkHorse League Season 7, where they currently hold a 2-3-0 record. This move will leave LVG with a seven-man lineup following their decision in December of last year to reacquire their former player ZhouXing “XinKoiNg” Cai to extend the team to a six-man roster.
