Looper is coming off a successful year, having led Royal Never Give up to a first place finish in China’s LPL Spring split and second place finish in the LPL Summer split. Prior to joining RNG, Looper had previously played for Masters 3 out of South Korea.
It was Looper’s exceptional play at Samsung Galaxy White in the 2013-2014 seasons that put him on the map. During his time with Samsung, Looper demonstrated some of the most innovative uses of teleport the game has ever seen. That year, he lead his team to the 2014 World Championships where they dominated the competition without losing a series and took home the million dollar prize.
