BLG has officially announced their roster, but Bin's return seems far off! The manager spoke out, stating there are no internal conflicts within the team.

Hello everyone, this is the World of Gaming, for all LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners.

The most talked-about event in the LPL's third split is the identity of BLG's new top laner. Since Bin has temporarily stepped away from the competition, BLG is not only relying on Wenbo but also looking to bring in a stronger top laner. Today, BLG finally made the official announcement.

BLG officially announces the addition of Flandre.

Even before the formal announcement, various leaks had clearly indicated that Flandre would join BLG. However, due to the prolonged delay, some netizens began to doubt the accuracy of these leaks.

This afternoon, BLG officially confirmed the news of Flandre's joining.

Flandre also posted on Weibo, thanking BLG for their trust and promising to do his best to achieve good results. Shortly after, BLG's manager, Yuan Xi, came forward to explain the team's situation.

Yuan Xi stated that there are no conflicts within BLG, and that Bin voluntarily wanted to take a break and asked the club to bring in a top laner for rotation.

However, many viewers expressed doubts about Yuan Xi's statement. They believe that given Bin's playstyle, it's almost impossible for there to be no conflict within BLG. Even if the players don't say anything to each other, teammates including coach Daeny would likely harbor dissatisfaction toward Bin.

Regarding Bin's break, it's indeed possible that it was his own decision. However, it cannot be ruled out that after team discussions and reviews, Bin didn't get the answers he wanted, leading him to voluntarily take a break.

Giving up on ranked games, Bin's return seems far off.

Combined with the details Yuan Xi revealed, the situation surrounding Bin's break becomes even more confusing. From the audience's perspective, Bin's break aligns more closely with an earlier leak: that Bin is not just taking a short break, but won't play any more games this year and will wait until the transfer period.

Because Bin has completely stopped playing ranked games, which suggests he has no intention of maintaining his form and returning.

This might also be why BLG is looking for Flandre. If BLG hasn't completely fallen out with Bin, they still need to prepare for the possibility that Bin won't return for the rest of the season.

It's worth noting that Flandre had a clear conflict with AL. AL secretly tried out a top laner behind Flandre's back, suddenly causing Flandre to lose his starting spot. Then the club didn't want to keep him, so Flandre simply left.

Edit

Some viewers suspect that the relationship between Bin and BLG might be similar to that between Flandre and AL.

In any case, the truth about this transfer is probably something the audience can't know for now. We can only turn our attention back to the competitive stage and see how BLG performs with Flandre joining.

Comparing the two top laners, two extremes in playstyle.

Comparing Flandre and Bin as top laners, I personally think they represent two extremes in the current top lane role. Flandre, as a veteran, takes an extreme team-oriented approach, while Bin requires more team resources and prefers the team to build around him as the core.

One established fact is that Bin's current ceiling is definitely higher than Flandre's. However, after all that has happened, BLG is no longer willing to gamble on Bin being able to perform well.

A player who has experienced three "small backpacks" (a term for disciplinary actions) and had conflicts with teammates, management, and coaches multiple times throughout his career, underperforming or even giving up when having a chance to win a championship, is extremely rare in LoL history. For BLG, this is undoubtedly a ticking time bomb.

BLG chose Flandre to maintain stability. With Knight in excellent form, they decided to change the team's core dynamic. Adding a more blue-collar top laner like Flandre might help them break through, and at the very least, dominating the league should not be difficult.

Looking at the World Championship, the key is whether any top laner can completely suppress Flandre in a 1v1 matchup. Personally, besides Zeus, there are very few top laners who can confidently say they can outplay Flandre. Overall, I'm quite optimistic about this transfer, and I hope Flandre seizes the opportunity to help BLG achieve good results.
