The majority of GenG’s star-studded League of Legends roster, including Chovy and Peanut, are now free agents after their contracts expired. Chovy, Peanut, Doran, and Delight, who were signed until the end of the 2023 season, have been released by the LCK organization. Only AD carry Peyz remains on the team, as his contract extends until next season.
This surprising move has shocked many League fans, especially considering GenG’s dominant performance in Korea throughout the 2023 season. Led by mid laner Chovy, the team won both LCK splits, defeating T1, the current world champions, on both occasions. They also finished fourth at the Mid-Season Invitational in the U.K. The only setback came at Worlds, where they were eliminated by Bilibili Gaming in the quarterfinals. Despite this, many expected GenG to be strong contenders for the title alongside China’s JD Gaming.
GenG expressed their gratitude to the players, acknowledging their dedication and effort that contributed to the team’s success. They wished them all the best in their future endeavors. The departures of mid laner Chovy and jungle Peanut have instantly made them highly sought-after free agents in the Korean League player market. It is expected that many teams will show significant interest in signing them as the LCK roster shuffle begins this month.
