For HLE, retaining Viper in the lineup has been a crucial step forward for the club's development. In 2024, the player proved his status as an elite AD carry, demonstrating an exceptional level of play. With his help, the team achieved significant success and caught the attention of a wide audience.

The organization stated that extending the contract with Viper is not just a formality but the foundation for building new victories and historical achievements. "In 2025, Viper and HLE will continue to create legendary moments that will go down in League of Legends history", — the club's statement read.

Viper's Role in HLE's Success

Viper is considered one of the best players in the AD carry position. His unique playstyle, composure, and skill allow him to dominate in the most challenging matches. In 2024, he repeatedly showed that he could become a key figure in decisive moments.

Throughout his career, Viper has established himself as one of the most consistent and outstanding players on the professional League of Legends scene. His relationship with HLE began in 2022, and since then, he has become not only the team's leader but also its symbol.

Expectations for 2025

In the new season, HLE aims not only for success in the LCK but also for a strong performance at international tournaments, including the World Championship. With Viper on the roster, the team plans to maintain its aggressive and confident play, which earned it recognition last year.

The team's fans eagerly await the start of the new season to see Viper in action. His mastery and experience are undoubtedly HLE's main aces in the quest for titles.

"We believe that 2025 will be a year of new victories and achievements. Our journey is just beginning!" — HLE representatives noted in the official announcement.
