When a League of Legends World Champion Uses 'Pro Gamer Moves' in Stock Trading...
From League of Legends world champion to stock market success: the story of 'imp'
Former League of Legends world champion, 'imp' (Gu Seung-bin), is reportedly achieving financial success in the stock market after retiring from esports. Known for his stellar ADC performance with Samsung White, winning the S4 World Championship in 2014, imp's post-retirement life has been marked by personal struggles, including a costly divorce that reportedly left him with significant debt and depression.
However, the narrative has shifted. Fellow former pro player Doinb recently claimed imp has achieved financial freedom through savvy investments in Korean and US stocks, particularly in semiconductor companies like NVIDIA and SK Hynix. While imp has not publicly confirmed this, he previously hinted at his market activities during livestreams, suggesting he invested in NVIDIA before the AI boom and that his assets grew tenfold over a seven-month period. This potential financial turnaround mirrors a dramatic comeback for the player once nicknamed the 'Rat King,' suggesting he may have found a new arena in which to excel.
