PandaC gets promoted to LNG Esports

A couple of hours ago, information appeared that the main roster of one of the LPL Summer 2022 teams will be replenished with a new player, it will be top laner Qi "PandaC" Xin.

At first, the information was picked up according to the changes in the Global Contract Database, and soon LNG Esports themselves made an official announcement on their official Twitter page, greeting the player.

PandaC is one of the very young faces on the Celestial professional scene, having first appeared only in April 2021 as part of the Rouge Warriors (now Anyone's Legend), in which he lost 8 months. And 5 months ago he joined the LNG Esports academic team as a replacement for the top laner.

A rather strange rotation from the LNG is to transfer a completely inexperienced player to the place of the top laner in the main stage of the LPL. However, a lot of fans have been dissatisfied lately with the performance from current top laner Hu “ Ale ” Jia-Le and mid laner Kim “ Doinb ” Tae-sang. After a good spring split, the team is showing itself rather poorly now at LPL Summer 2022.

It has not yet been announced whether Ale will go to the bench or whether they will play together with PandaC on an equal footing. But many were confused by the fact that LNG did not indicate in any way that PandaC would become a replacement player.
