Beating HLE did more than just stop Gen.G's poor run of results in the 2026 LCK; it also brought to light a remarkable stat about Chovy. Ever since he became part of the squad, the elite mid laner has rarely endured a lengthy period of poor form.
Gen.G faced HLE under considerable pressure after a string of unconvincing performances. However, Chovy and his teammates managed to secure a timely win, thereby preventing a further decline.
Notably, the tournament organizers LCK revealed that this is the first time since Chovy joined Gen.G that the player has been part of a losing streak exceeding two games. Previously, the last time Gen.G encountered a similar situation was a staggering 1,823 days ago.
This figure becomes even more impressive when considering that Chovy has been with Gen.G since 2022. Throughout multiple seasons, the team has consistently remained among the top contenders in the LCK and has very rarely experienced extended crises.
Since moving to Gen.G, Chovy has consistently been among the world's top mid laners. Despite many changes in the roster around him, the 2001-born player continues to maintain his laning prowess, resource control, and significant impact in team fights.
Under Chovy, Gen.G also once set a streak of 24 consecutive series wins across domestic and international stages, demonstrating the team's remarkable consistency.
In professional esports, maintaining form over many years is no easy feat. Players must constantly adapt to new metas, roster changes, and increasing competitive pressure. That is why Chovy's near absence of long losing streaks with Gen.G is especially noteworthy.
Although he still lacks a Worlds title to complete his achievement collection, Chovy has proven that stability is one of his greatest strengths. The victory over HLE once again shows that Gen.G still has the ability to quickly bounce back whenever they face difficult periods.
