DoinB received a fine for leaking LPL information

For the part of the audience that is not particularly knowledgeable in the field of League of Legends, Tae-san 'DoinB' Kim is the champion of the 2019 World Championship and a successful LoL player, currently playing under the LNG Esports tag, but no more. League of Legends fans, in turn, know about Kim's abilities not only as a player, but also as an insider and, to some extent, a journalist. He became one of the main sources of information regarding roster changes in the LPL. In this world, you have to pay for everything, and DoinB was no exception to this rule.

Riot Games conceived the LPL as a place where information regarding the arrival and departure of certain players should be hidden. However, the secrecy that the developers of League of Legends had in mind has ceased to exist in recent years and information about the lineups of the LPL, LEC and LCS can be found without any problems. Tae-san 'DoinB' Kim played a big role in this, talking about the LPL's internal changes during the off-season right during his broadcasts.

DoinB gave a lot of information and Riot Games certainly did not like this turn of events. Kim once again went against Riot Games and announced the start of LPL Summer 2022, which this time the organizers of the league could not come to terms with. Riot Games fined the player 60,000 yuan, equivalent to approximately ~$7,500. The Korean esportsman is a highly successful player and has earned over $400,000 in prize money. Such a fine can hardly be called unbearable, but it can be assumed that the player will now moderate his ardor in the world of insider information. On the other hand, DoinB told on his broadcasts that this is not the first time this has happened to him and the story has been going on since 2019. The total amount of fines imposed on him for disseminating information is hundreds of thousands of yuan. For which leaks the player took responsibility at the moment is unclear.

In 2022, Tae-sang Kim revealed that one of the LPL players would have to play remotely due to health problems. In addition, some transfers in the LPL league did not remain without him. They were disclosed and made public before the esports clubs made official announcements.

Such a phenomenon, when esports players are responsible for leaking confidential information and paying a fine for it, is quite rare in the world of esports and League of Legends in particular. However, Riot Games decided to crack down on DoinB's activities. It is possible that this is done indicatively in order to discourage other players from doing similar things, who may become potential insiders. Considering the Korean has received regular fines since 2019, we can still conclude that Riot Games is not doing a good enough job with the insider and we will still continue to receive information from him before it is officially made public.

Tae-san 'DoinB' Kim began his career as a professional League of Legends player in 2015 under the Qiao Gu Reapers tag. He later played for teams such as Newbee, Newbee Young, JD Gaming, Rogue Warriors, and FunPlus Phoenix, after which he moved to LNG Esports, where he continues to play to this day. By the age of 25, the LoL player has managed to achieve some serious achievements, including winning the main League of Legends tournament in 2019, and earning a total of more than $400,000.

List of important achievements of DoinB

  • LPL Summer 2015 - 2nd place ($62,692)
  • LPL Spring 2018 - 3rd place ($78,017)
  • Mid-Season Cup 2020 — 2nd place ($120,000)
