Korean server (LCK) has long been regarded as the pinnacle of competitive skill in 《League of Legends (LOL)》. However, recently a mysterious account appeared, achieving an astonishing record of 56 ranked matches and a 93% win rate in just two days, with the Korean server ranking soaring to fourth place. Some players speculate whether it is an AI team mentioned by Elon Musk or a professional player using a smurf account.
LOL Korean server appears with a 93% win rate account, players exclaim “Unhuman”
Bahamut Heroes League discussion points out that the account named “택배기사 (Eup-yi Yi Yi kuaidi-ji)” started participating in ranked matches on January 8, playing continuously from noon to 2 a.m. over two days, with almost no rest. In a short period, it accumulated 56 matches, ultimately winning 52, with a win rate of 93%, and a highest streak of 23 wins. Its ranking quickly climbed into the top 10 on the Korean server, reaching as high as 4th place.
Besides the number of matches and win rate, the account’s actual in-game performance also draws attention. Players note that its operation rhythm is stable, with an extremely low error rate, and it almost immediately queues again after each game, prompting many to wonder “Is this human?”
AI tactical training? Elon Musk’s Grok team lands on the Korean server?
As discussions heated up, some players quickly linked this to Elon Musk (Elon Musk), founder of xAI, who publicly stated in November last year that he hopes to train his own AI “Grok” to challenge the strongest human teams in 《League of Legends》 by 2026:
The AI will be subject to strict restrictions, including only being able to view the screen via camera, and its reaction and click speed must not surpass humans, among other limitations.
This statement sparked lively debate at the time and was positively responded to by the world champion team T1 from Korea, saying “We accept the challenge.” Now, the account with long winning streaks on the Korean server is also speculated by outsiders to be an AI training account used for practical testing.
Humans or machines? Community opinions divided
There are differing opinions within the player community regarding the true identity of the account. One camp believes that maintaining stable performance and a high win rate over more than ten hours of high-intensity ranked matches exceeds normal human psychological endurance and cannot be achieved by humans.
Another camp points out that in a competitive environment like the Korean server, professional players, especially substitutes or trainees, inherently have the need and ability to grind ranked games for extended periods and expand their champion pool. Therefore, it cannot be simply concluded based on match count and win rate that it is an AI or a cheat.
The truth emerges: clues point to an LCK professional player’s smurf account
As Korean and Chinese players further analyze, the community speculates that this account may belong to Roamer, a substitute mid-laner for the LCK team HANJIN BRION (BRO).

They identified several key clues from operation habits, including a fixed flash key (always using F), the arrangement and position of items and equipment, and highly overlapping champion choices and laning rhythm. These features are highly consistent with the professional player’s characteristics. Additionally, the suffix of the ID seems related to the new sponsor of the BRO team.
As of now, after completing the 56 matches mentioned above, the account has no further game records and has already fallen out of the top 10 on the Korean server.
AI entering the gaming field is not the first case
Looking back, AI models have challenged humans in games like 《StarCraft》 and 《Dota 2》, mostly as AI designed for specific game experience enhancement. Now, Musk’s plan to demonstrate the learning and adaptation capabilities of his own AI products through 《League of Legends》 will further blur the line between humans and machines, adding new cultural shifts to future e-sports and communities.
