Country / Region: China
Game: PUBG: Battlegrounds (Retired from League of Legends)
Role: Team Captain / IGL (In-Game Leader) / Owner
Playstyle: A brilliant strategic mind known for his “macro” understanding of the game. In PUBG, he was a master of zone rotations and aggressive squad maneuvers, often leading his team into the heart of the circle to dictate the pace of the match.

Origins: Born July 16, 1997, in China.
The LoL Era (2012–2017): GodV first became a global icon in League of Legends as the mid-laner for LGD Gaming. Known as “We1less,” he was one of the few players who could rival Faker in lane, famously winning the LPL Summer 2015 title.
The Transition: Following the 2015 World Championship, GodV faced immense pressure and eventual burnout. In 2017, he made the historic decision to switch from LoL to the newly released PUBG, a move that many thought was a gamble but eventually redefined his career.

GodV’s PUBG career is synonymous with the team he founded, Four Angry Men (4AM).

- The Return (2024-2025): After a brief retirement in 2022 due to health and family reasons, GodV officially returned to the 4AM active roster in April 2024 to lead a new generation of talent.
