Minutes ago, we shared an important update with Rioters about the future of Riot Games. Here’s what these changes mean for our games and what players can expect from us going forward:
After a 12-year partnership with Garena, Riot Games will begin self-publishing League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics across Southeast Asia in January 2023.

Today I got reminded of the time
@Froskurinn
took me to the emergency late at night and pretended to be my GF to come to the operating room & make sure I was okay.
I also remember how she proudly proclaimed that I had 'Ass Cancer' to everyone in the office the next day...
One thing I loved about
@OPL
is they taught us how to do our own makeup.
It’s not only useful for show days but also days like today where I don’t feel confident and suddenly I FEEL CONFIDENT.
More guys should learn basic makeup skills. It’s amazing.
In 2020, I will be retiring from shoutcasting and leaving

8 years of commentary. It’s been an amazing journey with Garena, Riot, Funplus and everything inbetween.
Thank you so much for all your love and support to allow me to live my dream. ❤️
Froskurinn is going to kill it in EU.
Think about how much she shaped the
#LPL
. All those awesome graphics? Frosk. Analyst desk? Frosk. Social Media assets? Frosk.
Now she’s gone. Eu has her. BUT HER ROOM IS NOW MINE. THANKS FOR BIG ROOM

Reddit chill pls. ❤️
👊 My journey with Riot Games.
Now that the shock of being affected by the layoffs has *begun* to shake off, I thought it was appropriate to address my time at Riot.
I’ve worked at Riot for 7 years on and off and an additional 5 at companies that provided a service to Riot.
You taught me everything I know. We had big dreams for 2019. You were going to commentate in esports with me and I was going to coach with you again.
The last thing you said to me was ‘I am proud of you mate.’ I will never forget that. And I will make you proud every single day.
As of Jan 1st 2020. It is now illegal to send unsolicited dick pics in Singapore.
The law is called ‘Cyber Flashing’ and your dick pics could land you 2 years of jail time.
That was my last cast for the
#LPL
. I enjoyed it and hopefully I’ll be back from time to time. :)
Thanks for watching the English broadcast of the Chinese LPL. Goodnight.
Today was officially my last day at Riot Games Oceania. I fly home to Singapore today before moving on to my next chapter!
I will still be working at Riot, and I will do a post / twitlonger update soon. :)
I will miss you.

When I was 16, I was arrested for attempting to commit suicide. You can find my full story here:

Hi twitter.

@Froskurinn
don’t want to go to the water park with me. Instead they’d rather ‘get breakfast’, ‘go to the gym’ and other grown up stuff like ‘prepare for the finals that we are here for’.
They are no fun.
We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of three-time Socceroo Darren Stewart. Our thoughts are with Darren’s family and friends at this difficult time.
#ValeDarren
My dad passed away from a Heart Failure. Most people in my family have passed away from a disease causing it.
That week I promised to best my PB of 10:05 in a 2.4km run for my dad before Father’s day.
9:53. Happy Father’s day Dad. I miss you. ❤️
That wraps spring split for me! Heading home to Singapore and Australia in a couple of days and can’t wait to spend time with my family while watching MSI.
Thank you Twitter! See you next split :) ❤️

& I were singing ‘Prince Ali’ on the bus. After a short while the man driving the bus recognized the song and joined us singing but in Mandarin.
That was amazing.

After 2 years in China, I can finally transfer money out of the country.
It only takes 10 documents from:
- Police Station
- Tax Bureau
- My Company
- Aus Embassy
And two hours each trip. 🙃 Winning.
In Weibo’s 2019 Awards Ceremony,
@UziRNG
is currently voted for ‘Person of the year’ the 2nd most in all of China. Beating all but one of the traditional media celebrities listed.
The surgeons just called to say Cherie's surgery was a success with no complications during the surgery, they wont even be sending her to the ICU. They are beginning the operation on the child now.
Thank you everyone for your well wishes. ❤️

frosk asked me to dress formally for our adventures today...
She’s dressed like she’s a part of a wealth family.
I decided to be budget Justin beiber.
I’m gutted. The OPL and OCE Office was a big move in my career and one I’ll never forget.
I can’t even begin to imagine how the players, Rioters, staff, and fans are feeling right now. 💔
Outlaws of Thunder Junction will release on the 19 April 2024 and I am excited to share an exclusive preview of a new card from the set: Vraska Joins Up.
#MTGThunder
Do you think the card will see play? If so how?

Today is my last day as an FTE at Riot Games.
The past two & a half years have been a dream come true.
I'd like to thank all of you for supporting me & Riot for unlocking some of the best & most valuable experiences of my career.
For more:
This morning my grandfather passed away peacefully. For the last two weeks, all i’ve wanted is to be with him and family back home but with COVID-19 it’s not possible.
I’m devastated.
Ladies and gentlemen we have another nomination for ‘Person who deserves their Twitter license revoked’.
What a loser. I’d date someone who cries about what they are passionate about over an asshat who hates on them any day. 🙄
Girl: “I hate video games, they are pointless and you get nothing out of them. No fun, no achievement, no story, nothing! I don’t get it.”
Me: “So... what do you do in your free time then?”
Girl: “Oh! Netflix.”
...
I’m done with today. I thought i’d be okay but i’m not. And I’m not even directly affected beyond memories and being a fan. I’m finishing my last email and going for a run.
I asked my partner out sometime in December. She asked me to ask her on the 1st or January so the anniversary date is easy to remember.
SHE FORGOT THE ANNIVERSARY DATE.
🤦🏼♂️
I'm in a group chat with our agent & landlords. They constantly talk among themselves in mandarin assuming I only understand the translations. They have historically been very slow & inefficient.
Until today. Today I spoke mandarin. The freak out was great.

I had my final goodbye at my Dads ceremony today. As per his wishes, his ashes will be placed right next to his grandma.
Rest In Peace dad. I will make you proud. I love you.
New in Shanghai, at a major T section cross that stops all traffic to cross in any direction. If you’re on the road when it hits 0 facial recognition will put your name on the big screen saying you’ve committed a crime.
A colleague of mine got married recently.
I did not know he was in a same sex relationship.
I was not surprised, shocked or excited by this information. I was simply elated for him on his special day.
This is the type of normality I want the world to have. This is normal. ❤️
