Description
Last week, China's League of Legends Pro League, or LPL, banned LGD's Chen "Jay" Bo for life for match-fixing, per a statement made on social media platform Weibo. Jay will also be forbidden from streaming League of Legends content on his personal stream. An investigation found text messages in which Jay allegedly communicated with an outside organization to intentionally lose matches during the 2022 LPL Spring Split. This week, Imad is joined by Dot Esports contributor Mateusz Miter to break down the situation, its previous precedents, as well as implications for the player, team, and league.
