In the early days of 2024, the entire Vietnamese League of Legends scene was abuzz with the news of a Vietnamese gamer achieving extremely high results on the Korean server.
After many years, Vietnamese League of Legends has finally produced a supernova, someone capable of inheriting SofM’s legacy.
LazyFeel’s real name is Tran Bao Minh, born in 2007. You can find this guy on social networks under the id `lazyfeel1903` (March 19 is probably his birthday).
LazyFeel is the first Vietnamese player to successfully climb to the top 1 Korean Challenger position.

In June 2022, DRX opened a young talent selection program for the first time in Vietnam, requiring candidates to meet 4 conditions:
Reach Diamond rank or higher on the Vietnamese League of Legends server
Can live abroad (Korea)
Adapts well to a collective living environment (gaming house)
Can transfer to DRX Academy young talent training center
By January 2024, two Vietnamese players were confirmed to have arrived at DRX Academy including:
Bao Minh, born in 2007 (Nickname: LazyFeel)
Le Nhan, born in 2006 (Nickname: Chika)
Both will be interns for the DRX Challengers team.
This is not an easy goal to achieve, because DRX Challengers is a team with quite high achievements and will consider a lot about replacing names in the squad.
In 2023, they won top 2 in the spring tournament and top 3 in the summer tournament (LCK CL).
LazyFeel first became widely known when it appeared on commentator Van Tung’s channel on January 24.

At 7:28 pm on January 28, 2024, LazyFeel announced that he had climbed to the top 1 Korean Challenger.
Previously, the best achievement of a Vietnamese gamer on the Korean Challenger server was top 2, established by SofM in 2022, when he was still playing professionally for the Weibo Gaming team.
In League of Legends, reaching the top 1 Korean Challenger is no different from `standing on top of the world`, because this is the harshest server with the highest difficulty.
A VCS player setting foot on the Korean Challenge is enough to be declared a prodigy and a young talent.

LazyFeel was born in 2007, so young, he also has an extremely promising future waiting ahead.
At the time of LazyFeel’s internship (January 2024), the gunner of DRX Challengers was Paduck (Park Seok-hyeon).
Paduck switched to training top lane and jungle champions (Data as of January 31, 2024)
