LNG Esports remains undefeated in the LPL led by Tarzan

South Korean jungling sensation Lee “Tarzan” Seung-yong has immediately transformed LNG Esports into an LPL powerhouse with his strategic return to professional competition.

The opening week of the 2021 LPL Spring Split showcased LNG’s dramatic improvement, securing a flawless 2-0 record that positioned them atop the league standings. Their impressive run included a stunning victory over former world champions Invictus Gaming followed by a hard-fought series win against TT Gaming, with Tarzan orchestrating both victories through calculated map control and objective timing.

Tarzan’s integration into LNG began during Demacia Cup 2020 in December, where he accumulated nine official matches with the organization. While initial tournament results were disappointing, the team has demonstrated remarkable growth in coordination and strategic execution since those early competitions.

The victory against Invictus Gaming represented more than just an upset—it revealed LNG’s potential as a championship-caliber squad. Tarzan’s performance was particularly masterful, recording only one death across both games while showcasing champion versatility. His flawless Pantheon performance set the stage for a dominant Olaf display with an impressive 5/1/7 KDA ratio.

Maintaining momentum against TT Gaming proved challenging despite LNG entering as clear favorites. The 2-1 series victory highlighted some strategic vulnerabilities while suggesting the team thrives when embracing underdog mentality—a psychological edge that could produce more surprising results throughout the season.

As week three approaches, LNG shares the leaderboard summit with Team WE, RNG, and EDward Gaming, setting up intense competition for playoff positioning.

LNG will play its next match on January 24 against Team WE who is currently looking on fire.

What happened to Tarzan LoL?

Tarzan emerged as one of League of Legends’ most anticipated talents during his 2018 LCK debut with Griffin. After three successful years developing his aggressive jungle style with the organization, he departed in May 2020 amid roster restructuring.

The competitive scene expected Tarzan to quickly secure another top-tier team, but the skilled jungler opted for a strategic hiatus during the 2020 summer split. Following six months of intensive individual practice and meta study, he officially signed with LNG Esports in December 2020, marking his transition to China’s LPL league where the faster-paced gameplay complements his aggressive style.
