Throughout their games, Daniel confessed that he has been playing League of Legends way back since 2012 according to afan-translated tweet. He is a top laner, and even gave fans an idea of his playstyle by using the champion Darius in their ARAM game.

The short match ended with a victory led by this four-man Tempered Fate from Teddy’s Bard.

The K-pop star revealed that he and Teddy virtually stumbled upon each other on the Rift, and then later on hung out in real life. On the day that T1 won a championship (theLCK Spring Split Playoffs, perhaps?), Teddy even came to Daniel’s house to play.

Daniel was also starstruck when he played with three-time Worlds champion and LoL icon Faker. He even asked for an autograph from the esports superstar.
