League of Legends Mid Laner Doinb Makes Epic Escape Play
LNG Esports’ newest mid laner, Kim “Doinb” Tae-Sang, showcased his incredible skills in a recent stream. The 2019 League of Legends World Champion pulled off an amazing escape through the enemy team’s jungle while playing as Viktor.
During the game, Doinb ventured into the enemy jungle even though his team was on the other side of the map. He managed to dodge enemy abilities, including a Lux root, as he pathed behind the red buff.
Instead of retreating to the bottom lane, Doinb continued deeper into the enemy jungle. Lee Sin joined the chase, but Doinb adeptly sidestepped most of the incoming damage. He then used Gravity Field to slow down four enemy champions temporarily.
Despite taking a significant amount of damage, Doinb managed to survive with just 89 health. His teammates arrived just in time to eliminate an enemy LeBlanc and Lee Sin, thanks to Doinb’s Gravity Field.
Some may question why Doinb didn’t retreat to his teammates at the beginning of the play. It could have been a mistake or a chance for him to practice his sidestepping skills.
Recently, Doinb participated in the Demacia Cup 2021 with LNG Esports, where they finished third-fourth. This tournament marked his first with LNG Esports, after leaving FunPlus Phoenix. LNG Esports qualified for the 2021 World Championships but finished 12th-13th in their group.
Doinb and LNG Esports will look to build upon their performance in the upcoming LPL 2022 Spring Split, which starts on Monday, Jan. 10.
Until then, Doinb will continue to hone his mechanics during the League offseason. Who knows, he might even pull off another incredible play before the new season starts.
