Yesterday, the DRX team in the LCK division suddenly announced the heavy news: the team's single Zeka and auxiliary player BeryL were diagnosed with new crown, and the single Kingen, the wild Pyosik player and a staff member were positive.
As a former partner of Deft, Keria, the assistant player of T1, has also kept in touch with Deft privately, and Keria revealed that Deft's test is negative, and the people Deft has contacted have tested negative.
Many netizens have also left messages of blessings after seeing the official news of DRX, hoping that several players can recover as soon as possible. Although it is now offseason, the LCK Spring Games will resume on February 9. According to the epidemic prevention regulations proposed by Riot, before the return of the players infected with the new crown, the candidates including the big list will play. However, because there are only 6 people in the DRX's big list, it can only let the players of the second team play first if the emergency system allows.
In the previous weeks of competitions, the LCK Spring Tournament adopted an offline mode and allowed spectators to enter. On January 29, the DRX team played at the LOL park venue, and the government officials have mastered the movements of insiders and notified close contacts to undergo nucleic acid testing.
According to Korean media reports, the 2022LCK Spring Saiyin Spring Festival holiday rest for one week, scheduled to restart on the 9th. And as long as the number of confirmed numbers does not increase, the competition is expected to be held as scheduled.
Riot Games explained that it will try to ensure that the LCK schedule is not disturbed. But in the worst case, the schedule may also be rearranged, such as if the second team also has a large number of players to confirm. We need to discuss further, but there are no plans to move to an online mode without spectators.
