Gen.G CEO warns LoL pro play is facing ‘lack of new talent’—even in the LCK
League of Legends esports might soon be facing a scarcity of young, talented players at a grassroots level, and Gen.G’s CEO wonders the reasons behind its decline.

The issue is also present in Korea, a region with an impressive international tournament track record.
