champion top laner Nuguri chose to retire
On the evening of November 28, Korean e-sports reporter Ashley brought the latest news. Former DK and FPX top laner Nuguri decided to end his League of Legends career, and the S10 champion decided to retire. This news surprised many viewers because it only took two years from winning the championship to retirement, and he had a rest for more than half a year in this spring season. Nuguri, 23, is still in his year of playing. Although his personal ability has not returned to his peak, he also entered the quarterfinals of the S12 Global Finals with DK not long ago.
Nuguri joined DWG in November 2017, helping the team play from the secondary league to the LCK league and won the 2020 world championship. At that time, Nuguri was considered the world's number one top laner. In December 2020, Nuguri transferred to FPX of the LPL league and won the ticket to the LPL Summer Season runner-up and S11 Global Finals. After returning to South Korea at the end of last year, although he had many big contracts, he still took a season off before returning in DK. It is not yet certain whether Nuguri will remain in the League of Legends e-sports circle after retirement.
