The league itself has wanted to collect the player’s story before the audience, but a segment about his previous club has generated controversy.
For the match between 100 Thieves and TSM, host Gabriella Devia-Allen «LeTigress» starred in a monologue about Doublelift’s career. In it, LeTigress collected with a comic tone both the best and the worst moments of the ADC throughout its extensive career. However, the LCS not only spoke about the sporting merits of the American, but also about some external controversies. Mainly from the accusations against Andy Dinh “Reginald”, founder of TSM.
LeTigress kept the ironic tone when talking about Reginald, who has received accusations of harassment of TSM workers. It was precisely Doublelift himself who revealed during a live broadcast the alleged attitudes of his previous boss, who was fined last July by Riot Games.
