FANABLE has announced the launch of a large-scale legal campaign to protect League of Legends stars Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok and Lee “Gumayusi” Min-hyeong. The company, which specializes in fan–player relations, has decided to take decisive action due to ongoing harassment and cyberbullying.

The players have long been subjected to misinformation, personal attacks, and degrading comments that go far beyond constructive criticism or competitive banter. FANABLE emphasizes that such behavior not only harms the professional reputation of esports athletes but also puts serious pressure on their mental well-being, which is unacceptable in a professional environment.

FANABLE is already preparing and filing criminal complaints over cases of defamation and public insults. The agency’s legal team is actively working with experts to identify even anonymous users who spread hateful content. The company has declared a “zero tolerance” policy toward offenders.

This case aims to fundamentally change the culture of communication within the esports community.

We also remind you that the Ukraine national team was eliminated in the Round of 16 of FIFAe Nations League Week 1.
