Evil Geniuses’ Rookie AD Carry Danny Wins 2021 Rookie of the Year Award
Evil Geniuses’ rookie AD carry Danny has been awarded the 2021 Rookie of the Year honor by the LCS after an impressive debut in the league. Danny, who joined EG’s main League of Legends roster during the 2021 Summer Split, quickly gained recognition for his exceptional performance in the bottom lane. The 17-year-old talent transitioned from the North American amateur scene and proved himself as one of the league’s brightest stars.
Success and Improvement
During the previous season, EG struggled to find success with veteran marksman Deftly in the starting lineup. However, with Danny’s addition, the team experienced a significant turnaround, going from a sixth-place team to one of the top contenders in the league. Fans and analysts alike were impressed by Danny’s rapid rise and skill in the bottom lane.
Impressive Stats and Achievements
Throughout nine weeks of play, Danny showcased his talent by securing 111 kills, making him the top killer in the league. He also boasted the third-highest average damage to champions per minute among all ADCs in the LCS, according to Oracle’s Elixir. Danny’s consistent performance and confidence were reminiscent of seasoned veterans, leaving both his team and the league in awe.
Potential for Championship Success
With the strong presence of Impact and IgNar anchoring the team, Evil Geniuses has a great chance of making a deep run in the LCS Championship. The team’s improved performance, combined with the resurgence of European mid laner Jiizuke, has positioned Evil Geniuses as a formidable opponent. If the team maintains their high level of play, Danny may even make his first appearance at Worlds in his debut year.
Tune in on Saturday, Aug. 14 to watch Evil Geniuses face off against 100 Thieves and witness Danny’s skills in action.
