Media person: Former NIP jungler Leyan did not participate in BLG trial training

According to multiple sources, former NIP jungler Leyan (Lu Jue) did not participate in the BLG team's tryout.

Recently, some netizens discovered that Leyan's main IP address has been changed from Hubei to Shanghai, and then speculated that he might go to BLG for a tryout to replace Wei, who is in poor form this season. Leyan also admitted in yesterday's live broadcast that he did go to a team in Shanghai with the letter "G" in its name for a tryout: "Which team did I try out for? Didn't I just tell you that I'm back from Shanghai, and I'm going to the team with the letter "G", the team with the letter "G" in Shanghai. I'm waiting for news recently, so I'll stay at home for a while."

"The tryout results were pretty good. I played against the Korean team, DRX, and NIP. I played for two and a half days, and one day against iG."

However, the well-known e-sports media person Lian Lian Hong Cha immediately denied the claim that Leyan might have tried out for the BLG team. He first said: "The team Leyan tried out for was not BLG." This afternoon, he added on Weibo: "Yesterday Leyan himself said in a live broadcast that he had tried out for two days and even his opponents said so. Netizens also said that he went to BLG. I specifically asked about BLG and found out that this was not the case."

Lian Lian Hong Cha continued to analyze: "I just thought about it carefully and it doesn't seem right. According to what Le Yan said, EDG is the only one left after elimination. EDG is also unlikely after observing it. I can only say that Le Yan is worthy of being a live broadcaster, and the effect is full."

Leyan's former teammate, NIP mid laner Doinb, also clarified the rumors in last night's live broadcast: "Is Leyan real? Not true. He came to Shanghai for other things. Leyan went to BLG, LWX went to G2, and Icon went to T1. Leyan said he wanted to play a training match with us? We agreed to get attention together. Did Leyan say that during the live broadcast? Leyan didn't live broadcast a few days ago. Marketing accounts posted that he went for a tryout. He just came back to live broadcast and someone was leading the rhythm. He saw a chance to get attention and said that. I don't understand this logic?"

"He said it himself during the live broadcast? Yes, he said it himself (it's fake), but he didn't expect so many people to be so stupid and really believe it. What should he do? He didn't expect so many people to be so stupid."

Leyan, 23, is a Chinese professional League of Legends player who has played for WD, RA, iG, NIP and other teams. He started participating in professional e-sports events in 2018 and won the NEST National E-sports Championship with the VG team in 2020. Since officially disconnecting from NIP on December 14, 2024, Leyan has been unemployed.
