Lee "Scout" Ye-chan (born March 14, 1998) is a Korean League of Legends player who is currently playing as a Midlaner for LNG Esports.

History

Scout's first tournament was the 2015 KeSPA Cup, where he competed with Faker and Easyhoon for the starting midlane slot. The team placed 3-4th at the event following a 2-0 loss against ESC Ever, with Scout remaining as part of the team for the 2016 LCK Spring Split. This resulted in his first title right away, with SK Telecom T1 beating ROX Tigers in the finals. Despite this title win, Scout looked for new adventures in China, resulting in him signing with EDward Gaming. His winning ways continued, with EDward Gaming winning the 2016 LPL Summer Split and securing a ticket to Worlds 2016. EDward Gaming was unable to get further than the quarterfinals, losing 3-1 against the Korean team ROX Tigers.

In 2017, Scout and co. secured another LPL Summer Championship, earning them another ticket directly to the Worlds Group Stage. This time around, the team failed to make play-offs, ending with a 2/-/4 record, only winning against Cloud9 and ahq e-Sports Club once. Despite this, Scout remained loyal to EDward Gaming, playing for them in 2019 and 2020 without titles, before returning to the top in 2021 with a 3rd place in the 2021 LPL Spring Season and a third summer championship in the 2021 LPL Summer Season. Halfway through the 2021 LPL Summer Season, Scout also became a Chinese resident due to his long time in the LPL. At the 2021 World Championship, Scout and EDG finished second place in their group. They were set up for a quarterfinal match against bitter rivals RNG, which they won 3-2, breaking their quarterfinals curse. Scout and EDG were matched against Gen.G in the semifinals, with another 3-2 victory in the end, allowing EDG to advance to the World Championship final for the first time in their history. There they were matched up against heavy tournament favorites DAMWON Gaming. Entering the series as heavy underdogs, EDG managed to win Game 1, before dropping the next two games to go 1-2 down in the series. Scout and EDG showed incredible resilience by forcing another Game 5 after taking Game 4 convincingly. In the final game, EDG managed to take the win off the back of some incredible Zoe plays from Scout, crowning him and EDG as World Champions for the first time. Scout was named World Finals MVP for his amazing performances in the grand final.
