Former iG jungler Leyan revealed in a live broadcast that he will join a team in the Summit Group, and revealed in the fan group that he is waiting for the official announcement. Combined with the previous revelations of various bloggers, this team is most likely NIP. Looking at the Summit Group, only NIP has reached the point where it must change its jungler, otherwise it is very likely to end the summer season with a complete defeat.

Nip's team has a good configuration. Even if it cannot be compared with first-tier teams such as BLG and TES, on paper it is enough to compete for a place in the bubble match. According to the results of the spring season, NIP, which can reach the top four, is a well-deserved strong team. However, NIP's performance in the summer season can be said to have plummeted. In the group stage, it ranked only second, and lost all the way in the group match. Currently, it ranks last in the summit group with 0-5. The key is that NIP's remaining schedule is all against top-ranked teams, and it is really hard to win.

The summer season version is very special. The strong one is the AD mid laner. In addition to the OP Tristana and Corki, ADs such as Lucian and Draven all stand in the middle lane. And generally, if an AD mid laner is used, he will be paired with a mage core jungler. And NIP is exactly the team that is least good at this combination. When it comes to mage heroes, Rookie can be said to be the best in the world, but when it comes to AD mid laners other than Jayce, he is not even ranked in the LPL. When he was in TES last year, Rookie was criticized for not knowing how to use Tristana, and he did not play a single game in the entire summer season. Because the AD mid laner itself does not pursue suppression in the laning phase, but rather develops and eats more lanes in the mid-term, and takes over the game in team battles by using the high frequency of AD output. This is completely inconsistent with Rookie's game style of operating during the laning phase and directly catching people after the laning phase.

Aki's jungle core is even worse. He is a typical tool jungler. He uses various warriors and tanks to create rhythm for the line in the early stage, but can only play the role of initiating team fights in the middle and late stages. The jungle core version selects various AP junglers, which not only has no rhythm, but also handles team fights very roughly.

Nip's bottom lane is a blue-collar combination, which can have some advantages against weak teams, but is not good enough against strong teams. The pressure of the whole team is on Shanji, but what can a top laner change? Therefore, NIP is likely to end at the bottom, and then fight for a place in the playoffs with the top teams in the Nirvana Group.

With the current state of NIP, even a battle for position cannot guarantee victory, so they chose to introduce Leyan. Leyan's strength is not top-notch, but he is very suitable for this version. As a player who was born as a jungler, his jungle clearing efficiency is very high, at least he can serve as a guarantee for late-stage output. At the same time, Leyan played a warrior jungler in iG in the spring season and performed quite well, and he had a good grasp of the rhythm. Although he often got lost and gave away heads in the mid-term, it is much better than Aki who can't even figure out how to clear the jungle now. Moreover, Leyan and Rookie were teammates for a while, and the cooperation between the two was quite good in S10, and there was no problem of running-in.

However, Leyan was suspended for two games in the spring season, so he won't have many chances to play even in Nip. This is the last chance for Nip. If the substitution is effective, they can still make it to the playoffs and compete for a spot in the World Finals.
