A starting roster sheet given to press for Invictus Gaming indicated that Pak Kan "Tabe" Wong will play for the team as their starting support.

Invictus Gaming have faced heavy criticism for their bottom lane's play recently, losing 2-1 to Royal Never Give Up and to Oh My God recently in the regular season. Invictus Gaming are the fourth seeded team in Group B and will play against Snake eSports in the first round of the LPL playoffs.

Support Liu "Kitties" Hongjun is the team's shotcaller, but has been targeted by commentators for adapting poorly to the tank support meta. Tabe is known for being an experienced shotcaller, though he retired at the end of 2013 after Royal Club Huang Zu placed second at the World Championship.

This isn't the first time Tabe has attempted a comeback. Tabe temporarily played for Stand Point Gaming while also serving as their coach and expressed interest in attempting to play at another World Championship after Royal club Huang Zu's success in 2013.

Most recently, Tabe received backlash for leaking Invictus Gaming's strategies on the English-speaking analyst desk at the 2015 World Championship. Despite this, Tabe retains a close relationship with one of Invictus Gaming's coaches, Siu "Chris" Keung. Both Tabe and Chris originally played for Invictus Gaming after the team was purchased by Wang Sicong as Catastrophic Cruel Memory.
