Shenzhen DYG player Liu Xinyu (ID: Xiaoxing) announced his retirement on Thursday, officially bidding farewell to the professional arena. In the statement, he said he never regretted choosing a career path, and thanked his teammates, coaches and all supporters.

Xiaoxing also said that he will continue to work hard to pursue new goals. The statement is as follows:

"Hello everyone, my name is Xiaoxing. I don't know where to begin. Maybe I just want to say goodbye to everyone. From the ignorant beginning to now when I can stand on my own, I have been playing professionally for almost four years, and I have gained a lot along the way. Now when I think back, it is still vivid. When I first entered KPL and played in Group S with my brothers, I was full of energy. Later, maybe because of too many failures and various reasons, I developed self-doubt and lack of confidence, so that we did not get satisfactory results that season. Later, because of my own state problems, I caused the team to fall into Group B. Along the way, I had the highlights of Group S, the lows of being a substitute, and many regrets of being one point short. Thank you for the experiences along the way that made me who I am today, and I am also very sorry that everyone did not get a satisfactory result due to my own reasons. I am sorry to disappoint everyone. Now I have decided to say goodbye to this arena, but I have never regretted embarking on the path of a professional e-sports player. I have gained a lot of friends and some truths about life along the way. I am lucky to have existed in the KPL arena, but Due to my age, declining skills, inability to concentrate for a long time and various other reasons, I should say goodbye to my identity as a professional player. Thank you DYG Club and coach for giving me this opportunity to play in the KPL. Thank you DYG Club for taking care of me during this period. Thank you teammates who helped me when I encountered problems and felt uncomfortable. Thank you to those who have supported me from the peak to the trough for so long. Thank you to those who have supported and liked me. I hope that my former teammates can shine on the field and achieve the results they want as soon as possible, and don’t give up their dreams because of temporary failures. I also hope that DYG can get better and better and get out of the predicament as soon as possible. When we meet again in the future, we may not be professional e-sports players. Goodbye Shenzhen DYG. Xiaoxing. It’s a pity that the professional career of Shenzhen DYG. Xiaoxing has ended, but my (Liu Xinyu) life has just begun. I will work hard to pursue my own life. I also hope that everyone can be happy every day and get better and better every day. "
