Impact has been Profi for 10 years: "Lol is my life"

The South Korean "Impact" Eon-Young has been a professional player in League of Legends for 10 years. Already at 18 he became a world champion and won everything that gives it to win in Lol. For 8 years, the South Korean is a legionary and plays in the US. Now he explains how he can be professional players without burning out how many others, and why he is afraid of the pension.

This is impact:

  • The South Korean Impact is one of the most experienced LOL professionals at all: he was already in 2013, at the beginning of his career, world champion at SKT T1, along with legendary players such as Faker, Bengi or Piglet. In 2014 and 2015 he became 2 times master in South Korea, moved to the US and won 4 times the LCs.
  • Impact is top laner. He is known for his game with champions like Jayce, Shen, Jax or Rumble.
  • In his 10th year as a professional, Impact plays for a mid-range team of LCs, for Evil Genius, and still can. Just a few days ago he set up a new record in the LCs because he was an opponent who was 7 years younger than himself, totally dominated.

life? ... lol

"League of Legends is my life"

How can he be profi so long? Many young men keep the hard life of a LOL professionals only 5 or 6 years old. The constant training, an unhealthy life style, constant changes to lol and thus on the meta demand your tribute.

With 23, for the average lol-pro finish, even star players like bjergsen finish their career with the 24th of the first world masters in Lol hardly plays anyone else. Some former star players had to end their career even because of chronic injuries or psychological problems early.

In an interview, Impact is now telling how he avoids the "burnout", which prevents many lol professionals after a few years.

"I've never really experienced something like burnout. I'm not sure, but my attitude goes in the direction that League of Legends is my life. When I wake up, I think of the matchup I will have today. I like to think about lol to develop new ideas. Other people play any other games to distract themselves from their lives, but I just like League of Legends.

A lot of people get burnout because they look lol like work. If you see your everyday life as a job, then you will soon burn out. If you play for money or for a secure workplace, then you will burn out quickly. But Lol is just my life. When I stop, I'm really scared: because I have no idea what to do. "

Lol: teams kill pure women's troupe - Riot attacks

"People always think: just because I have money, I can stop"

Why does he be afraid of the pension? With 26 and after 10 years as a professional, most LOL players should look forward to their pension. Whoever wants to do something with Lol, maybe will be full-time streamer like Sneaky and Doublelift. Or he can become professional coaches like Bjergsen and Wolf. But for Impact there is only one thing at the moment: continue playing.

Impact says:

"People always think, just because I have money, I can stop and have a good life, but I would be terrible boring and I would feel lost in life. I do not want to take a break because it would be bored.

I like the competition. The losing feels like, but winning makes me happy. That's why I'm not a burnout because I know that all my work will make me feel. It's the best feeling at all. "

everything bored impact - except properly good opponents in lol

That falls on: In the interview, it works as if Impact is still drawn from his time at SKT1 8 years ago. He says he had to fight for his playing time. Everything felt like Grind and scary a lot of pressure. At that time he realized that he needs an environment in which there is less pressure to see how much fun does lol actually do.

Today, IMPACT says, I like everything: He has many more freedoms and fun. Everything is fun: Training Make fun, solo queue make fun, even the terrible solo queue in the US makes him a good mood.

Apparently, Impact's time at T1 was so hard that everything has happened to him as a vacation ever since. He also seems to love Lol just to love. Other games bored Impact. Also lol "just to play for fun," he finds stupid. Impact only wants to play ranked against the best players, he says. This will get a kick.

Apparently, his job seems to be filled in such a way that he does not perceive him as a profession, but as his life.

Impact has set an exciting career. With 18 world champion, with 26 still professional. In the time he has earned a lot of money and that invested:

Impact reveals proudly what he bought from 7 years lol
