With the 2022 LPL Spring Tournament about to officially open, recently, V5 officially announced its lineup for the new season. They are:
On: Invincible, Rich
Hito: Karsa, XLB
Medium: Rookie, Dream
AD：Photic
Auxiliary: ppgod
It is worth mentioning that after the end of the Demacia Cup, the LPL official commentator Miller rated the major teams of the new season of the LPL, among which V5, IG and OMG were considered by Miller to be the B+ level teams of the new season. As we all know, there are two B+ level teams in the 2021 season. One is the RNG of the 2021 LPL Spring Race, when the RNG was named a B+ team by Miller, but in this season they won the Spring Championship and the MSI Championship respectively; the other, the LNG of the 2021 LPL Summer Race. Although LNG did not play the performance of the spring RNG, it at least completed the first time in the team's history to reach the global finals. Because these two B+ teams that were once the 2021 season have played relatively good results, many LPL fans are still looking forward to the new miller B+ level teams.
However, from the perspective of the B+ team in the new season, although the two teams of OMG and IG have potential, they are mainly newcomers after all, so these two teams want to play very good results in the new season, in fact, it is still relatively difficult. But V5 is different, first of all, this team has two recognized star-level players, Karsa who plays wild and Rookie in the middle single; secondly, other positions also have a certain potential and depth. If all other positions can have excellent performances in the new season, plus Rookie and Karsa Nakano, they can indeed be amazing in the new season.
Especially Rookie, the contestant. Although rookie did not perform well in the 2021 season, rookie's play was relatively stable from the state of his entire career. That said, if Rookie can return to the top in the new season, under his leadership, V5 is not without a chance to become a top team. Therefore, whether Rookie can usher in the second spring of her career in V5 will be a key factor in whether V5 can become a real B+.
"You can always believe in Song Yijin" is undoubtedly the best summary of Rookie's current career. And can Rookie play well with her new teammates in the new environment, and can V5 become a real B+? Let's look forward to the new season together!
