Month: February 2025

After retiring twice in 2023, Yiliang ‘Doublelift’ Peng is now returning to the competitive League of Legends scene with a new team.

Doublelift will play alongside a combination of streamers and former pros, including:

Ashkan ‘TF Blade’ Homayouni
Mingyi ‘Spica’ Lu
Eugene ‘Pobelter’ Park
Vincent ‘Biofrost’ Wang

This roster was first reported by Sheep Esports via LCS Eevee journalists and will compete in the 2025 North American Challengers League (NACL) qualifiers.

Team Without a Permanent Coach
According to Doublelift, the team will not have a permanent coach. Instead, they plan to invite guest coaches occasionally, such as:

William ‘Meteos’ Hartman
Nick ‘LS’ De Cesare
Doublelift Confirms He’s Not Serious About Competition
When speaking in a live broadcast regarding his League of The Americas (LTA) qualifying targets, Doublelift emphasized that he had no intention of competing seriously.

“I hope you guys appreciate my candor here — I have absolutely no interest in living the lifestyle of a professional player,” Doublelift said.
“Leena (Doublelift’s partner) and I are getting married, we want to have children. I have other hobbies and interests outside of League of Legends. I don’t want to dedicate my life completely to playing this game.”

There is no team name yet, but a content plan is being prepared
Doublelift still hasn’t decided on an official team name. Additionally, it also has some exciting content plans that will be announced soon. Meanwhile, he will register a roster for the 2025 NACL.

All of his team’s scrims (practices) in the NACL Open Qualifier will be broadcast live for two weeks, starting on February 13 against Supernova. This approach is similar to that taken by badak togel European team Los Ratones, founded by popular streamer Marc Robert ‘Caedrel’ Lamont.

Doublelift: League of Legends legend in North America
Throughout his decade-long competitive career, Doublelift has been an integral part of major organizations such as:

Team Liquid
Team SoloMid (TSM)
100 Thieves

Doublelift has won eight championship titles in the League Championship Series (LCS) and NA LCS, making him one of the most successful players in the history of competitive League of Legends in North America.

The characters Thrall, Faerin Lothar, and Alleria Windrunner, who previously appeared in The Voices Within, will get their second arc. They will join Jaina Proudmoore, Renzik “The Shiv,” and Locus-Walker, in a collection of World of Warcraft stories that will remind badaktogel readers that the fate of Azeroth is determined by the sacrifices and struggles of all people, and that even small actions can have a huge impact on history.

Adam Christopher has written many novels, including Star Wars: Shadow of the Sith, Stranger Things: Darkness on the Edge of Town, and the official Dishonored novel. He was also a contributor to the anthology Star Wars: From a Certain Point of View.
Andrew Robinson is a prolific animation screenwriter, having worked on Transformers, Marvel, and Young Justice. Since 2014, he has written songs, lore, comics, short stories, and animated shorts for Blizzard, including some of Overwatch’s most popular cinematics.
Listen to Free Stories from World of Warcraft: Crossroads
Even though World of Warcraft: Crossroads won’t be released until November 11, fans can listen to one of the stories for free.

The short story entitled “The Tipping Point”, which tells the history of Renzik “The Shiv” – the Goblin agent from SI:7 who has a large role in the story of World of Warcraft: The War Within Patch 11.1 – is now available in audio format, narrated by John Behlmann, voice of Matthias Shaw, spymaster from SI:7.

If Crossroads follows the same pattern as The Voices Within, it’s likely the other four short stories will also be released for free, with one exclusive story only available in print.

“These stories remind us that Azeroth’s fate is determined by the sacrifices and struggles of all people, and even small actions can have a huge impact on history.”

Pre-Order and Release Date
World of Warcraft: Crossroads is available for pre-order on Amazon for $30.
The 256-page anthology is scheduled for release on November 11, although the date is still subject to change.
