According to Korean esports journalist Kenzi, Tarzan's arrival is an attempt to strengthen Weibo Gaming's team and bring the team back to their glory days.
Tarzan initially joined the LPL with LNG, finishing in 10th place in his first season. Despite starting off poorly, Tarzan and his team picked up their performance and finished second behind JDG in the 2023 LPL Summer Split finals. His last tournament was Worlds 2023, where the team lost to T1 in the quarterfinals.
On the other hand, Weibo Gaming secured a second place finish at Worlds 2023 last year, missing out on T1, and have been on a downward spiral ever since. They finished the Spring Split in sixth place after losing 3-0 to JDG in the 2024 LPL Spring Playoffs.
