"RNG Subsidiary Sues Zz1tai and Letme: No Release After Eight Years, All Contract Disputes"

Foreword: The S16 season has officially started, and most players are paying attention to the recent battles. The MSI competition is fierce, and the LPL region's outlook is not very positive. To win the title, one must look at BLG team's overall gameplay rhythm. Initially, it seemed there wouldn't be major internal issues, but netizens discovered that RNG's subsidiary has simultaneously sued Zz1tai, Letme, and Wankun. Frankly, among the players who left, only Zz1tai had a very good relationship with RNG back then, yet now he too has been targeted by RNG over contract issues.

RNG Subsidiary Sues Zz1tai and Letme


Most players are familiar with RNG, a former top-tier all-Chinese team in the LPL. As early as Season 7, they gained a large fanbase. They focused on building an all-Chinese lineup, attracting many loyal fans, and achieved remarkable results after Season 8. Although they didn't win the World Championship, they performed well in other international events. With the overall decline in popularity and Uzi's departure, RNG's popularity plummeted. Additionally, due to personal management of e-sports, RNG faced significant financial deficits and many unpaid debts.

Ultimately, after last season, RNG completely left the LPL. It was thought that the non-operational RNG would no longer bring any attention to the LPL, but recently RNG's subsidiary has taken action again, seemingly out of financial necessity. A fan discovered that RNG's subsidiary sued Zz1tai, Letme, and Wankun, all for contract disputes, with the plaintiff being former RNG boss Yao Jincheng. This incident quickly sparked heated discussions among players worldwide, with many questioning what contracts could trap everyone in RNG's grasp.

Notably, Zz1tai and Letme left RNG at their peak popularity. Both retired after Season 8 and are among the retired players closest to the team. They rose to fame through the team's popularity and became major streamers. In theory, their player contracts with RNG should have ended. The issue likely involves streaming and business contracts. Previously, Zz1tai mentioned that streaming no longer generates income, and all gifts are turned over, probably due to contract issues.

Several former teammates have been sued by RNG one after another. Mlxg lost his case and had to pay millions in compensation. It remains to be seen if Zz1tai and Letme can hold up. The only stable one seems to be Xiaohu, still playing matches, whose decision to buy out his contract back then was truly wise. Ming, though retired from competitive play, cannot stream. Uzi previously revealed that unless RNG agrees, Ming will never be able to engage in any League of Legends activities. Currently, Ale seems most relieved; he was the only one who did nothing and even managed to get 50 yuan for milk tea from RNG.

In Conclusion

Who would have thought that even Zz1tai and Letme, who left the professional stage eight years ago, would be caught up in RNG's contracts. The issue likely revolves around streaming content, as Zz1tai now has his own agency and wants to break free from RNG's control. Since the team once elevated them, they won't easily let go. The final outcome remains to be seen; will they face the same penalty as Mlxg and be ordered to pay millions?
