According to a post on Bilibili Gaming’s official Weibo account, famous AD Carry Uzi will take a long break from pro play after returning from retirement to join Bilibili Gaming in the LPL at the start of 2022.
Uzi’s comeback was one of the most eagerly anticipated movements of the League of Legends 2022 offseason.
The player retired in 2020 owing to terrible health concerns that were limiting his ability to compete, despite being widely regarded as one of the finest AD Carriers to ever play the game. His comeback to BLG in 2022 came after a year of intensive effort on his health and conditioning to regain full fighting fitness.
He returned as one of BLG’s two starting AD Carriers, the other being PCS rookie Chiu ‘Doggo’ Tzu-Chuan. The goal was for the two players to share time over the split, allowing Uzi to take time off if his health began to deteriorate again. Doggo, on the other hand, ended up starting the bulk of BLG’s games.
Only two days before the first match of the LPL Spring Playoffs, BLG revealed that Uzi will be taking a break from competition indefinitely. The decision was made “in complete cooperation” with the legendary player, according to the announcement on the team’s Weibo.
According to the notice, the transfer is temporary for the time being. BLG stated that the team’s “overall development has been unsatisfactory,” and that his break would let him to “relax for a period of time and recover his condition.” (Please keep in mind that the translation is based on Google Translate software.)
As fans are expecting Uzi to comeback, this might be a sad news for both BLG and his fans in the future.
