Every day that passes in the main League of Legends leagues around the world, different legendary players in the scene break some records that initially seemed very complicated to complete. This time, we turn to the LPL, China’s top LoL league, where Song “Rookie” Eui-jin, Top Esports’ Mid Lane, has broken the league’s kill record.

In each of the leagues, we can observe how there are players who have marked a very strong stage in the history of competitive LoL. In the LCS we have Søren “Bjergsen” Bjerg and Yiliang “Doublelift” Peng. For example, in the LCK, there is none other than the “Demon King,” Lee “Faker,” Sang-hyeok. Finally, in the LEC, we have Martin “Rekkles” Larsson.

In the LPL, two players have always stood out above the rest, the considered best player in the history of the LPL, Jian “Uzi” Zi-Hao, and Rookie.

Rookie reaches 3000 kills in the LPL

Top Esports’ Mid Lane, Rookie, was proclaimed the first player in LPL history to reach 3000 kills.

For the past few years, we have witnessed a spectacular battle between Rookie and Uzi in Summoner’s Rift in the LPL. However, since Uzi decided to step away from the scene, Rookie has been in charge of continuing to break or set new records in the Chinese league.

While this is a great accolade for the player, he has achieved it in Top Esports’ loss to OMG with a score of 2-3. With this loss, Top Esports is out of the LPL playoffs.

The team did not perform as well as desired in this Split, finishing in seventh place with a 9-7 record. But then, the team got a crushing

About Rookie

Rookie is, without a doubt, one of the legendary players within the LPL and has a spectacular run in the league. His beginnings were in 2014, but in his native country, South Korea. However, the player decided to leave to play in the LPL a year later and has remained on the scene ever since. There is no doubt that this player is an icon for the league, as while many go back and forth between the LPL and LCK, this player has remained steadfast in this league.

In addition, Rookie is also in the history books of the LPL, as he was one of the cornerstones of Invictus Gaming in their victory at Worlds 2018.

Rookie is no stranger to breaking records throughout his career. While he is the only player in the history of the LPL with 3000 kills, we can highlight that he was the first to join the 2500 kills club along with Uzi. He was also the third player in league history to accumulate 400 wins.

We can only wait to see what new record this legendary South Korean player will break or set in the LPL.
