We received very sad news this morning, which continues to clarify the tumultuous moment that esports are also experiencing in Asia, where esports are at the forefront of the entertainment industry. FunPlus Phoenix is leaving the LPL and its League of Legends team.
The historic Chinese organization has announced that it will end its run in the top Chinese competition after eight years competing at the highest level and with several titles under its belt, including the biggest one in the circuit, the Worlds.
FunPlus Phoenix says goodbye to League of Legends
The LPL is not going through its best moment, with problems currently in terms of talent development due to Chinese legislation and not being in the best economic situation either.
Many Korean imports within the league reflect this first situation perfectly, while the economic issue is also confirmed by situations such as FunPlus Phoenix or RNG, another historic organization with many international titles that is going through a very bad situation, and which is rumored to also be leaving the league
