Viper blir med i Bilibili Gaming for 2026-sesongen

Park " Viper " Do-hyeon will continue his career with Bilibili Gaming, returning to the LPL. On November 19, Hanwha Life Esports officially announced his departure. After three years with HLE, the organization is restructuring its roster, and Viper became a free agent.

In BLG, he will take the AD Carry position previously held by Zhao " Elk " Jia-Hao, ending Elk’s long-standing partnership with ON.

Viper began his professional career in 2018 with Griffin. He later moved to EDward Gaming, where he won LPL Summer 2021 and became a Worlds 2021 champion. In 2022, he returned to Korea and achieved several notable results with HLE: winning LCK Summer 2024, reaching the playoffs at Worlds 2024 and 2025, and securing titles at the LCK Cup 2025 and First Stand 2025.

For Bilibili Gaming, this transfer is aimed at strengthening the roster ahead of the 2026 season. According to available information, Bin, Knight, and ON remain with the team, while Xun will serve as the main jungler.

Projected BLG roster for 2026:

• Top: Chen "Bin" Ze-Bin
• Jungle: Peng "Xun" Li-Xun
• Mid: Zhuo "Knight" Ding
• ADC: Park "Viper" Do-hyeon
• Support: Luo "ON" Wen-Jun

The LPL is undergoing major changes, with many players from other regions joining the league this offseason. Additionally, several teams have left the LPL. Bringing in a strong player like Viper should have a positive impact on BLG and the league as a whole.
