Background / History
In Chen Yi's previous life, UZI and Chen Yi were teammates on RNG. Chen Yi was made to study UZI's tendencies so that he could understand and eventually surpass him; this knowledge becomes the foundation of Chen Yi's unusually accurate reads against UZI in the current timeline. 143
In the present timeline, Chen Yi considers every RNG member an enemy and specifically treats UZI as a personal rival because he is RNG's ADC. 8 UZI first encounters Chen Yi and Su Nuan in a public match, where their Twitch–Janna lane repeatedly defeats his Sivir. 8 9
Competitive Profile
Playstyle
UZI is portrayed as a highly aggressive ADC with strong confidence in direct lane confrontations. At nineteen, his volatile temperament can turn poor early exchanges into mechanical mistakes and deteriorating decision-making. 10
- Favors fighting for lane pressure rather than conceding space.
- Is willing to contest opponents even while low on health. 151
- Becomes especially dangerous when allowed to play a four-protect-one composition around his signature Vayne. 152
- His pride can prevent him from retreating or accepting help, most notably when he refuses Xiao Ming's Thresh lantern during a decisive fight. 146 147
Signature Champion: Vayne
Vayne is identified as UZI's true signature champion; official searches for UZI are associated with Vayne in the same way Faker is associated with Ryze. 152
- In the Spring Split Finals' third game, RNG builds a four-protect-one composition around UZI's Vayne and defeats Snake. 152
- Chen Yi recognizes UZI's Vayne as a level of mastery born from repeated experience and muscle memory rather than mere game knowledge. 152
Other Documented Picks
- Sivir — Played during the public-match defeat to Chen Yi's Twitch. 8
- Lucian — Chosen in the fourth finals game as an early-burst answer to Snake's Vayne. 153
- Kalista — Used during the first game of the finals, where Chen Yi and Su Nuan's Ezreal–Leona lane predicts and punishes his movements. 143
Story Role / Major Arcs
Public-Match Defeat
UZI's Sivir loses Flash at level one after Chen Yi's Twitch opens with an unexpected stealth attack and sidesteps Morgana's binding. 8 Chen Yi and Su Nuan subsequently control the bottom lane, secure First Blood on UZI, and punish a Jarvan IV gank through Su Nuan's interruption of Jarvan's dash. 9
As Twitch roams across the map, UZI is repeatedly ambushed and killed. Chen Yi later notes that UZI has died eight times, turning the match into a public humiliation amplified by hostile chat messages. 11 13 UZI's team finds a Baron opportunity, but Chen Yi arrives to score a Pentakill; RNG ultimately loses and UZI leaves in frustration. 12 13
RNG's Match Against Snake
When UZI learns that Chen Yi has joined Snake, he immediately recognizes the player who defeated him in the public match and promises to repay the eight deaths with sixteen kills across two games. 49 Snake defeats RNG in their first professional-game meeting, further intensifying UZI's frustration. 59
After the match, UZI directly asks Chen Yi whether he had played professionally before, unable to reconcile Chen Yi's performance with that of an ordinary newcomer. 66 The defeat leaves UZI humiliated and isolated during the holiday break. 67
2017 Spring Split Finals
UZI enters the finals rematch determined to reassert himself, declaring that the LPL has no shortage of geniuses and that he is their “terminator.” 140 Chen Yi's detailed knowledge of UZI's instincts enables Snake to repeatedly predict his Kalista's movements in the early games. 143
UZI's refusal to take Xiao Ming's lantern contributes to a lost fight and forces him to acknowledge his mistake afterward, improving RNG's morale. 146 147 He answers Snake's unconventional bot-lane strategies with mounting frustration, but secures RNG a crucial victory when his signature Vayne is given a four-protect-one composition. 149 152
In the final game, UZI plays Lucian into Chen Yi's Vayne. Chen Yi's Vayne repeatedly outplays him through invisibility, positioning, and superior damage, and Snake ultimately wins the championship. 153 156 159 161
Personality
UZI is intensely proud of his standing and expects to dominate lower-profile opponents. He initially dismisses the prospect of facing Snake, but his confidence rapidly turns to anger when he is unable to overcome Chen Yi. 49 56
His temper is a recurring source of tension within RNG. He criticizes Xiao Ming's positioning and champion choices, while his teammates have been instructed to accommodate his behavior. 53 61 Under pressure, he becomes visibly flustered, curses, and directs blame toward teammates. 55 56
Despite this volatility, UZI can accept responsibility after a costly error. His admission following a lost finals game strengthens his team's morale. 147
Relationships
- Chen Yi / meaning — Former teammate in Chen Yi's previous life and present-day ADC rival. Chen Yi understands UZI's habits in exceptional detail after having studied him for RNG. 8 143

- Aomi Mi / Aomimi — UZI's girlfriend. His in-game anger contributes to an argument with her, and their relationship is later portrayed as strained. 11 67
