1.As we all know, Jieni7's performance in Champs is not bad, unless EDG sign player like happywei or others, he will stay starters.

6.If DRG wins Ascension, he will stay.

in their run up to champs, Jieni was a top 2 player on EDG. He's performed well and very consistently on any role (raze, neon, waylay, breach, kayo, tejo, omen, deadlock). He's arguably more flexible than Smoggy now and has a very good understanding of util and has good impact with it. Also mechanically one of the best on EDG too

More about ZmjjKK's thought of retirement:

At April 14th midnight, KK posted a weibo said:

I don't know how much longer I can continue to play professionally, but I want to win more championships in my career. I'm tired and immersed in constant insults day and night. I hope everyone is doing well. In June, I've been playing professionally for five years. I hope all of you care about yourself. We're just your passers-by. If we can bring you happiness, that's enough.

Besides, his hand injure was more terrible at that time. No one knows the pressure on him, a 21-year-old player, FMVP, GOAT.
