On Dec. 14th, Riot Korea announced that they’ve taken strong countermeasures to combat against intentional griefing (wintrading), in relation to illegal gambling sites making profit off pro players’/streamers’ solo queue matches. This issue arose when pro players in the LCK and in the LPL faced hardship in winning their solo queue matches because of the aforementioned issue.

First, all the accounts on the KR server that were suspected of being used illegally overseas were deactivated on the 8th, and a hotline was established between Riot Korea and the LCK teams on the 9th. This meant that all the LCK teams are now able to directly report all the players suspected of wintrading for illegal gambling websites. Riot Korea also announced that as of Dec. 14th, a real-time solution has been implemented to block all unauthorized 3rd party programs.

Riot Korea stated, “Wintrading and illegal gambling on solo queue matches are unacceptable in any circumstances. We’ll make sure to do all we can to prevent such actions.”

The following is a translation of Riot Korea’s announcement on their official website.

Dear Summoners,

We’ve confirmed that a number of players overseas have been involved with illegal Chinese esports gambling websites to directly influence the win/loss of LCK pros, and that they’ve illegally used Korean accounts in the process. We, at Riot Games, consider this situation to be very severe, and have taken the following countermeasures to prevent such from happening.


*Deactivation of all accounts in suspicion of overseas theft (finished on Dec.8th).

  • We inspected about 10,000 accounts that are in the similar MMR as the LCK pros (>D2), narrowed down all the accounts that are in suspicion of being illegally used overseas, and have deactivated them on Dec. 8th.


*Real-time restriction solution of all unauthorized 3rd party programs (implemented on Dec. 14th)

  • In order for wintrading players to play ranked matches from overseas, they need to play with high ping. Overseas players access the KR server via VPN, and use unauthorized 3rd party programs to reduce their ping.
  • Riot Games have implemented a real-time solution detecting these aforementioned 3rd party programs. In compliance with our terms of service and related policies, all players that have been detected by our real-time solution will have their accounts suspended, and will be locked out. The whole process will take place three minutes after the game starts, and players in the same game as such overseas player will be able to remake the game.

*The establishment of a hotline between Riot Korea and LCK teams (established on Dec. 9th)

  • A hotline was created for all LCK teams to report all players that are in suspicion of wintrading. If a team has their players ever come across win-trading players for illegal gambling purposes, they can now directly request Riot Korea to monitor such players. This hotline was created with the sole purpose to prevent wintrading for illegal gambling websites, so behavioral actions, such as verbal abuse, will still need to be reported via the in-game report system for disciplinary action.

Intentional feeding and illegal gambling on ranked matches is unacceptable under any circumstances. We, at Riot Games, will do everything in our power to fully eradicate such actions from taking place.

In Berkeley, there are a lot of reasons your neighbors might be screaming at 5 a.m. Maybe they’re having a party that’s gotten way out of hand, or maybe they’ve just received an email that their 9 a.m. class is canceled. Or, consider this: They could be nerds who stayed up late to watch the League of Legends World Championship.

Around 7 a.m. Oct. 31, DAMWON Gaming took down Suning 3-1 to become the 2020 League of Legends world champions. After beating out 21 other teams in the monthlong tournament, DAMWON became the first Korean team to lift the Summoner’s Cup since 2017.

Of the 6,000 fans who watched the final battle in Shanghai’s Pudong Soccer Stadium, many hoped that Suning, of China’s League of Legends Pro League, would take an underdog victory in the team’s home country.

The first three games (including Suning’s win in Game 2) were extremely close, but DAMWON firmly shattered the home crowd’s dreams by the fourth and final game of the series, completely shutting out Suning in a 27-minute stomp. DAMWON jungler Kim “Canyon” Geon-bu, who was awarded MVP of the series, looked especially dominant, handily building early leads for his laners to snowball the team to victory.

“In an interview during Worlds, I had said that my goal was to win the championship and to get the finals MVP,” Kim said in a post-match interview, translated by Inven Global. “Now that I really got it, it’s unbelievable and I feel amazing.”

DAMWON’s journey to the championship was nothing short of incredible. The team has become the best in the world in an extremely short period of time, signaling a new rise of Korean strength with its aggressive, adaptable play style.

DAMWON is a young team by any standard; it qualified to compete in League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK), the highest-level Korean regional league, in spring 2019.

“Last year, DAMWON was full of rookie players that played around their mechanics. But this year, with Coach (Yang “Daeny” Dae-in’s) feedback, the players gained a lot of understanding of the game and absorbed it really well,” said Lee “Zefa” Jae-min, DAMWON’s head coach. “That’s why they were able to win Worlds.”

Bot laner Jang “Ghost” Yong-jun, who was once a notoriously weak player in the Korean competitive scene, had never been to Worlds before 2020.

“A message to the other (pro) players who are having a tough time: They can just look up to me and think, ‘This kind of guy can also win Worlds,’ so I hope they can cheer up, never give up and accomplish the goals they have,” Jang said in a press conference after the match.

Suning, with a second-place finish, came out of the tournament with achievements of its own. The team was constantly underestimated, with many predicting that Suning would fall in the first round of the knockout stage. Yet, the team proved to be fierce competition.

The series has been hailed as the most exciting finals in the last four years, breaking the streak of 3-0 series that began in 2017. Suning top laner Chen “Bin” Ze-Bin also wrote his way into history with the first-ever pentakill in a finals series, wiping out all five of DAMWON’s players on Fiora in Game 2.

Like everything else in 2020, the tournament was marked by the effects of COVID-19. Players spent 14 days self-isolating in a government-run converted hotel, reminiscent of the famous NBA bubble.

But even under unusual circumstances, nothing can take the shine away from DAMWON’s crowning achievement.

“The message that I want to say to the players is, you guys are the best players in the world,” Lee said.
