South Korean Cho “BeryL” Geon-hae (26) is a huge anime fan, a lover of gacha games, and just so happens to be one of the best and most successful players in League of Legends right now. In 2022 he became world champion in LoL for the second time and can therefore design a skin of a champion as he wants. He chose his favorite waifu from Honkai Impact as the new skin for the sniper Ashe.

In 2020, BeryL smuggled his waifu out of a Japanese action game in LoL
BeryL chose this skin for 2020: World Champions in League of Legends enjoy a special privilege: Riot Games asks them which champion they would like a special skin for. They should choose a champion with whom they have a connection.
In 2020, BeryL chose the heroine Leona and wanted her to have a skin from the gacha game Princess Connect Re: Dive. He had his favorite Waifu “Saren Sasaki” designed as a skin.
BeryL likes the Japanese action game so much that in 2020 he announced his victory to his community just minutes after winning the world championship there.
Now he’s bringing his favorite Honkai Impact waifu to LoL
He chooses this heroine in 2022: For 2022, BeryL has now chosen an anime girl again: He had Riot Games make a skin of the heroine Elysia from the game “Honkai Impact”. It is now used as a template for a new skin for the heroine “Ashe”.
As early as November 2022, he had asked the Riot Games design team, somewhat bashfully, if they could also make a character based on another game. And they could.
Actually, Ashe is not a classic supporter, but an ADC: In the last few months, however, she has also been played as a second character in the botlane.
How do the fans see it? As the Dotesports site reports, opinions on DRX Ashe are divided, but positive in the crowd.
Some fans are excited and want to download League of Legends just because of the new Ashe.
Others, on the other hand, are unhappy that the supporter BeryL actually chose an ADC heroine with “Ashe”. You would have liked a new skin for a classic support. But well, there’s always something.
