Peanut and his teammates disappointed at Worlds 2024
Step to Worlds 2024 as the No. 1 seed LCK, HLE is considered a great hope of this area in winning the title of World Championship. This is strengthened after the Swiss round when HLE has a convincing 3-1 coefficient and holds tickets to the quarterfinals. Even before the match against BLG, Peanut and his teammates were considered by many people to be the “upper door” when the LPL representative was quite struggling in the Swiss round.
HLE has ended Worlds 2024 with a rather heavy failure against BLG
However, what HLE brought to fans in the quarterfinals was a disappointment when they failed 1-3 against BLG. After the victory in game 1, HLE was completely overwhelmed by the opponent in the remaining 3 games when they lost completely from the stage, handling skills to fighting. Peanut seems to have lost herself after the first game and almost “stealth” completely in the rest of the match. Leaving the tournament with such a weak face has made HLE and LCK fans disappointed with this team.

Peanut is expected to retire soon, the hle “tan flock”
With Worlds 2024 about to come to an end, the transfer information has appeared continuously in recent days. As revealed from the news sites at LPL, HLE is a team with a relatively large personnel change when the two members of Peanut and Doran will soon be announced to break up the team. With Doran, he has negotiations on the backstage to find a new stop for himself in the 2025 season.
Doran is likely to leave HLE in the near future
Meanwhile, Peanut did not have such negotiations because he was expected to retire soon after Worlds 2024 ended. It is worth mentioning here that Peanut actually still has a contract with HLE but he chose to retire and not playing anymore. Therefore, this team has only the only choice to declare the termination of the contract with Peanut in the near future.
If the information actually happens, Peanut's professional career will end with a lot of regret. Especially, Peanut's Worlds Dream is still unfinished when he constantly fails to conquer this title whether playing for Gen.G, T1 or the nearest HLE. Moreover, the possibility of a career after having to receive a heavy loss against BLG made Peanut's farewell like taking place in “disappointing deep”.
Peanut retired (if any) right after a heavy failure is extremely unfortunate
Of course, the above information has just stopped at the rumor level and has not been confirmed by HLE or Peanut. Hopefully this player will think carefully about the time of retirement to have a more complete ending for his career. For an old player, there are many contributions like Peanut, it would be sad if he ended his career after a World Campaign 2024 failed.
