Cho "Mata" Se-hyeong, legendary South Korean support for Royal Never Give Up, has announced on Facebook that he has left the team.

In the post, Mata said he wanted to return to South Korea to play, in part because he has had difficulty living abroad and has experienced some "personal health issues." Mata did not say whether he had received an offer from a team in Korea.

Mata first came to China as the support for Vici Gaming for the 2015 season after winning the World Championship with Samsung White. This year he transferred to Royal Never Give Up, where the Chinese players on the team praised him for his game knowledge and ability to teach.

Royal Never Give Up placed first in the group stage at the Mid Season Invitational, but lost to SK Telecom T1 in the semifinal. At the World Championship, RNG 2-0'd Team SoloMid to escape their group in second, where they again faced SK Telecom T1 and lost in the quarterfinal 3-1.
