Biography[edit]
2014 Season[edit]
Wei "GodV" Zhen (sometimes stylized GODV) joined LGD Gaming in May of 2014 as their new mid laner, under the name "We1less". He joined the team after leaving Vici Gaming, a team he was a part of since September of 2012. LGD was knocked out extremely early in Demacia Cup Season 2, losing 2-1 to Team RM in the very first round. They placed fourth in the 2014 LPL Summer Regular Season and managed to qualify for the 2014 LPL Summer Playoffs. Unfortunately, they failed to win a single game, losing 3-0 to both EDward Gaming and Star Horn Royal Club. LGD managed to make it to the 2014 Season China Regional Finals but were knocked out in the second round with a 2-1 loss to OMG.
2015 Season[edit]
LGD's first full tournament of the year was the 2015 Demacia Cup Spring Season where they made the quarterfinals but lost 3-0 to Invictus Gaming. Shortly afterwards, they finished the 2015 LPL Spring Regular Season in sixth place and advanced to the 2015 LPL Spring Playoffs. LGD upset both OMG and Snake eSports 3-0 to face EDward Gaming in the finals. The series went the distance to a full five games but LGD ultimately lost the series 3-2 to EDG.
Prior to the start of the second half of the season, We1less changed his name to "GodV". LGD became feared in China but they were upset 3-0 by OMG in the 2015 Demacia Cup Summer Season. LGD placed fifth in the 2015 LPL Summer Regular Season and qualified for the Seeding Match of the 2015 LPL Summer Playoffs. They fought their way to the finals, even upsetting EDG 3-0 along the way. LGD beat the Qiao Gu Reapers 3-2 in the finals to qualify for the 2015 Season World Championship as the top seed from China. LGD was placed in a group alongside Team SoloMid, Origen, and KT Rolster. Unfortunately, they ended with a 2-4 record and were knocked out of the tournament.
2016 Preseason[edit]
Going into IEM San Jose, GodV renamed once again, this time to PAinEvil. LGD were knocked out in the first round, losing 0-2 to Team SoloMid. On December 29, PAinEvil renamed back to We1less.[5]
2016 Season[edit]
With Flame and TBQ leaving in December of 2015, LGD entered the 2016 Season after signing MaRin and Eimy for the top lane and jungle positions respectively. They hoped to bounce back from their rough Worlds and post-Worlds performances and went into the 2016 LPL Spring Season with high hopes. Being placed in Group A, LGD struggled in the first several weeks of play. Despite having good players in every position, they couldn't really play as a team. In the second half of the season however, they performed better and finished 4th in their group with an 8-8 record. They would face off against Vici Gaming in Round 1 of the Playoffs but would go on to lose 1-3 and finished the Spring Split in 7th-8th. Summer was a rough split for LGD as the team finished 5th place in their group. As a result of this, they would attend the 2017 LPL Spring Promotion but were able to re-qualify for the LPL after a 3-1 win over Newbee.
2017 Season[edit]
Despite a promising year on the horizon, LGD continued to struggle and finished the 2017 LPL Spring Season last place in their group. Although they had to attend the Summer Promotion tournament, they re-qualified for the LPL with a 3-0 win over Young Miracles. In the summer season GODV stepped back after the team acquired Cool as their primary mid laner. In October of 2017 GodV left the team and retired from professional League of Legends, switching to playing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds professionally.
