Choi “Doran” Hyeon-joon - Gen.G Image via LCK Flickrįor Doran, 2022 is his redemption year. It may be Zeus’ first Worlds appearance this year, but based on all the experience he’s garnered over this past year, there’s no doubt he’ll reach higher heights at this year’s Worlds.Ģ. He played an integral role in leading T1 to their undefeated Spring split victory, and helped lead T1 to a runner-up finish in both MSI 2022 and in the Summer split.įrom absorbing enemy ganks and resources in the top lane, his side lane macro, to his teamfighting, Zeus has proven himself to be exceptional at all fronts. Generally, rookies tend to play either too aggressively, rack up a lot of deaths, or play way too defensively, but his performance in 2022 makes you question whether or not he’s actually a rookie. If you pay attention to how he plays, you’d question whether or not he’s actually a rookie. With much training under T1’s wing, Zeus joined T1’s main roster in 2021 as a substitute top laner, and was promoted to the starting top laner position for the 2022 season.

He’s what many would call an all-rounded top laner. Leaving a great impression in his debut split in the LPL, he was named outstanding rookie in the 2022 LPL Spring split, and was also included in the LPL 2022 Spring All-Pro 3rd team.

With three whole patches that will change the competitive meta for the upcoming 2022 LoL World Championship, fans can expect many changes to the pro play meta.
