Just Announced: LPL Superstar Ale Joins JD Gaming with a “Compensation Fee” Controversy
Recently, during the transfer period at the end of the 2024 season, JD Gaming announced the addition of a new member to their roster. According to reports, Ale will be joining JDG for the 2025 season, taking on the role of Top Laner. This is a significant change for a player who has garnered considerable fan attention during his tenure with LNG. However, his professional career has experienced ups and downs, including stints with EDG and AL.
However, immediately after Ale’s announcement, several of his past actions came to light across social media platforms. It has been revealed that Ale was previously involved in a “compensation” incident with his ex-girlfriend, which has sparked outrage among the LPL community and League of Legends fans worldwide.
According to Hupu, Ale had a relationship with this girl from July 2017 to January 2019. During that time, he reportedly engaged in behavior that led him to face criticism for losing games. Furthermore, Ale allegedly used his girlfriend’s money to pay for hotel expenses related to gambling, which drew considerable backlash.
Additionally, Ale’s girlfriend disclosed that he committed to paying her 100,000 CNY (approximately 350 million VND) for damages caused before their breakup. Nevertheless, Ale has frequently remained silent when it comes to financial matters. Interestingly, according to her statements, he also owed an additional 14,000 CNY (around 50 million VND) in debt, which she referred to as “burdening” her.
Moreover, according to the girlfriend’s revelations, Ale’s introverted nature has often led him to retreat from social interactions, which has resulted in frequent changes in his teammates. She mentioned that Ale often struggled to connect with his previous teammates, leading to his frequent reshuffling within the professional scene.
Fan Reactions and Controversy Surrounding LPL Superstar Ale
Across various platforms, not only LPL fans but also the international League of Legends community are actively discussing and debating this situation. “Why would a team like JDG or previously EDG recruit someone like him? If this is true, then Riot should take action against him for violating player conduct rules,” commented one fan.
Another opinion noted: “Riot will certainly remain silent about this. Previous instances are examples of fans being told ‘there’s no evidence’ when teams issue statements regarding player behavior.”
Currently, neither Ale nor JDG has issued any response regarding this ongoing controversy.
