League of Legends: Top laner Chen Zebin (ID: Bin) returns to Bilibili Gaming (BLG) starting roster..

Shanghai-based esports powerhouse Bilibili Gaming (BLG) announced on its official Weibo account on Thursday that top laner Chen Zebin (ID: Bin) has immediately returned to the starting roster of its League of Legends team.

According to BLG's official statement, this decision takes effect from the start of the team's match against LGD that day, meaning Bin is returning to the starting roster after a 40-day hiatus.

His return to the starting roster does not mean that his substitute, Li Xuanjun (ID: Flandre), will be benched. Instead, it is widely speculated that Bin will rotate with Flandre.

Just a short time ago, Bin announced a temporary leave of absence to recharge due to physical and mental exhaustion and recent poor performance. During this spell, fake rumours circulated online that he had once again clashed with BLG's management.

During Bin's absence, BLG considered several players, including Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) player Yoon Yong-ho (HOYA), as his stand-ins.

Ultimately, BLG decided to temporarily promote their academy team player Yang Wenbo (ID: Wenbo) to the main roster, but he had to be replaced due to a wrist injury, forcing BLG to bring in Flandre as an emergency replacement.

During Bin's absence, BLG achieved a six-game winning streak at the start of LPL Season 3, followed by consecutive losses to Top Esports (TES) and JD Gaming  (JDG). Flandre only participated in the team's last three matches.

It's worth mentioning that Bilibili Esports (BLG) has already qualified for the Worlds Finals based on the championship points accumulated throughout the season. In any case, Bin is bound to announce his strong return with an outstanding performance.

Following this adjustment, BLG's current roster is as follows:

Top Laner: Chen Zebin (ID: Bin)

Top Laner: Li Xuanjun (ID: Flandre) (Substitute)

Jungle: Peng Lixun (ID: XUN)

Mid Laner: Zhuo Ding (ID: Knight)

ADC: Park Do-hyun (ID: Viper)

Support: Luo Wenjun (ID: ON)

Head Coach: Yang Dae-in (ID: Daeny)
