After a bitter defeat at Worlds 2023, TheShy decided to part ways with Weibo Gaming (WBG) and temporarily retire from League of Legends.
After Worlds 2023, TheShy temporarily stopped competing in the spring phase of the 2024 season.
However, TheShy himself recently made fans `fall back` when talking about his future on live broadcast.
Close friends TheShy and Ning even plan to `go pro` DOTA 2 together
Ning: You know, in DOTA 2 there are many players over 30 years old.
TheShy: What if I switch to DOTA 2?
Ning: I’m pretty good at playing DOTA 2.
TheShy: Can we win the championship together?
Ning: Won TI?
TheShy: Looks like there’s a big prize there, right?
Ning: Yes, but in recent years it has decreased.
TheShy: Maybe I’ll take a few years off and then switch to `go pro` DOTA 2.
Ning: This is completely possible.
While co-streaming LPL Spring 2024, Ning and TheShy came up with the idea of competing in DOTA 2 and aiming to win The International (TI).
The above conversation between Ning and TheShy quickly shocked the LoL community in the LPL region.
TheShy’s intention to compete in DOTA 2 is shocking many of his fans
It is important to know that since Wings Gaming won The International (2016), no Chinese DOTA 2 team has repeated this achievement.
The last time a Chinese representative won TI of DOTA 2 was in 2016
To be fair, the intention to switch to playing DOTA 2 just stopped at a happy conversation between TheShy and Ning.
