As part of our Countdown to Worlds, we celebrate the Top 20 players of the World Championship.
#5 - Uzi
Team - StarHorn Royal Club
Region - China
Position - ADC
Signature Champions
The world is still reeling from Jian “Uzi” Zihao’s performance at the 2013 World Championship. If Faker was the standout mid laner of the tournament, Uzi was the AD carry to be reckoned with.
Uzi returns to the World Championship this year under Star Horn Royal Club with all new teammates. And instead of farming for the late game and shooting holes in the offense, Star Horn is all about taking early risks and diving into fights over early dragons. Uzi often leads the charge, but his raw mechanical skill and the aid of his team keep him safe.
During 2014 LPL Summer, Uzi had the highlight play of the split, almost single-handedly taking out the entire team of Invictus Gaming and picking up a 3v5 pentakill for his troubles.
StarHorn Royal Club will chase you down and catch you, and if you fall under Uzi’s crosshairs, only a swift reaction can save you.
Check out the other players on the list!

This Worlds is full of good ADC (UZI, Imp, Rekkles, Deft, Sneaky, even Candypanda). Too bad Weixiao didn't qualify and I won't even mention Doublelift, great mechanics but CLG is a weak team.
Hate to be picky on such a sweet sweet play, but there were definitely 4 players very involved in that "3v5 pentakill" (w/o insec, those last 2 kills don't happen)
And this is normal video presenting incredible skill combined with a bit of luck. Rekkles video was so dull and unemotional, Yellowstar and soaz did all the work for that overhyped, average adc, i had to stop watching after 3min.
High risk, high reward ADC who plays a slightly forward position compared to other ADCs. Either way, Uzi is one of the best and certainly one of the most fun to watch out for at Worlds.
