September, 2018, the New Zealand Rangitoto had their League Esport team qualified to a regional tournament, specifically to the final of this tournament. But unfortunately, Rangitoto mid laner had just been hospitalized due to an emergency lung issue which required surgery.
Reportedly, their mid laner name Brian Yu and he is the team’s best player, so having him out of these crucial game was going to be devastating.
But, Brian seem not planning on missing the finals. Just hours after his lung surgery, he managed to join the game on time, he played these matches in a laptop in his hospital while using hospital Wi-fi.
One of his teammate point that while they were all on discord and Brian had to have some injection and they literally heard him moan. But on the brightside, Rangitoto’s opponents got destroyed, the last game of the Best of 3 (BO3) lasted only 23 minutes. And of course the champion of the game is Brian Yu, he somehow able to play Lucian mid and have a perfect KDA 11/0/4 and 264 CS at 23 mins.
11/0/4 and 264 cs is insane, even more insane when the player is playing while laying on the hospital bed
Before the finals also told the enemy team to just surrender at 15 and he meant it
