Knight set a “terrible” record with BlG
On August 30, the final final of the Summer LPL 2024 officially had a result when BLG defeated the WBG with a convincing 3-0 score. This helps Knight and his teammates get the No. 1 seed of the LPL area to the upcoming Worlds 2024. With a convincing display from the group, the group stage to the Playoffs, BLG is the biggest hope of the LPL area at this year's Worlds.

As for Knight, this player also set an extremely “terrible” record at LPL with the last victory. Specifically, Knight was the first player in the history of the LPL Championship of the regional tournament 4 times in a row. Remember in the 2023 season, Knight and JDG won both regional titles. Even when moving to BlG in the 2024 season, Knight continues to win the LPL championship in both the Spring and Summer tournament.

Knight frankly said that he is not a “superstar”
Knight's “terrible” achievement has indeed attracted a lot of attention at LPL. The reason from Knight is that the mid lane player rarely preserves good performance in many LPL seasons. Even, even when switching to a new shirt called BlG, Knight quickly adapted to the new teammate and helped this team to have the power to prevent in the regional playground. However, in an interview after the match, Knight still thinks that he is not “superstar” as the review of many people.
“I am very happy to have the No. 1 seed position of LPL. The failures in the previous Worlds are valuable experience for me. So I really want to have a good performance at this year's Worlds and win the championship. Now I am not a superstar like many people call it. I think that only when the World Championship is enough to prove myself as an excellent player. will.
Sharing after the 4th consecutive LPL championship, Knight confirmed that he has not been called “superstar” and only the World Championship is enough to prove him as an excellent player.
Indeed, when looking back at the past, the Worlds are always sad memories for Knight. This guy attended 3 Worlds (2020, 2022, 2023) but all failed in different ways. Even failure in Worlds 2022 can be considered extremely heavy when the player's TES did not overcome the group stage after suddenly failing against the Esports GAM. Even when it comes to a great championship candidate at Worlds 2023, Knight still fails in JDG shirt.
Worlds seems to be a sad memory for Knight
Obviously with such a “painful” history, Knight certainly is not satisfied with only winning the LPL title. This player needs a Worlds title to reach out to the “superstar” as well as assert their strength. Moreover, the attraction of LPL has decreased significantly this season, so the World Championship (if any) of the BlG will have a great impact to help this tournament attract the audience to return. Hopefully, in the upcoming Worlds 2024, Knight can keep the highest form to play successfully as well as overcome the “haunting” failed in the past.
