Preface: The S16 season has officially started, and most players have been following the recent matches closely. The LPL is currently on a brief off-season, with top pro players taking time to rest and fine-tune themselves, gearing up to perform strongly in the elimination rounds. The well-known AD player Gala recently shared some daily photos, revealing his impressive physique, especially his eight-pack abs, with a body fat percentage around thirteen to fourteen. It's truly disciplined for a pro player to maintain such a physique. Unexpectedly, at midnight, Bin also posted photos with his team, even directly comparing himself to Gala, claiming that he hasn't trained seriously but would surpass Gala if he did.

Most players are quite familiar with AD player Gala. As one of the outstanding domestic ADs in recent years, he had remarkable achievements during his time with RNG, winning the MSI championship and becoming the successor to Uzi. Over the past two years, his overall form has steadily improved, gradually becoming a representative of domestic ADs. During the winter transfer period, after repeated invitations from head coach Tabe, he chose to leave IG and join JDG, forming a relatively young roster. So far, this lineup has performed reasonably well, showing many aggressive plays, with all players striving to improve.

During the off-season, Gala's photo set went viral online. What started as a casual nine-photo grid was broken by a gym photo showcasing his abs. It’s clear that Gala maintains a very healthy physique, with distinct eight-pack abs and even visible obliques. For a professional esports player, sustaining such a body requires great discipline, balancing intense training with daily fitness routines. Nobody expected Gala to hide such a well-built figure under loose clothing. What seemed like just Gala’s trending moment was suddenly matched by Brother Bin at midnight, who posted his own abs photo and directly compared himself to Gala.

Honestly, it’s unclear where Bin’s confidence comes from. His physique looks like that of a typical skinny guy, to put it bluntly, just a bit better than a "skinny monkey." His arms show almost no signs of training, and let’s not even talk about his abs. He even commented below, saying he just hasn’t trained much, but if he trained seriously, he’d definitely be stronger than Gala. Five minutes later, Gala quickly replied, acknowledging Bin’s talent. Gotta say, Gala is a classy person, giving a polite compliment. It feels like the hardest part in the entire LPL might be the BLG team’s management; sticking it out takes real skill.

After Bin posted with the team, many other clubs started sharing photos too. The familiar Rabbit from G2 posted a muscular bunny photo, commenting that it wasn’t photoshopped. Similarly, LGD, another LPL powerhouse, shared before-and-after pictures showing their once muscular player now looking gaunt. The funniest was probably top laner Da Huang, whose photo angle clearly revealed his "love handles." Maybe Bin gave everyone the confidence — if he dares to compare his physique to Gala’s, who wouldn’t dare to share their own photos? It’s puzzling what Bin is thinking; it seems he really enjoys the attention from online haters.

Farewell thoughts

I doubt anyone expected Bin to post his photos comparing himself to Gala, especially since it was originally Gala’s casual post. It just shows how much Bin wants to boost his own popularity. Could it be that he’s already preparing for retirement? After all, haters are still fans, and having traffic is key for retired players. Hopefully, BLG’s management won’t restrict Brother Bin; without his comments, things might get a lot less entertaining.
