Biography Timeline
Peng was born on July 19, 1993, and grew up in Mission Viejo, California. He has a younger and an older brother. In April 2018, his mother was killed and his father injured after an altercation outside of their family’s home.
When Peng returned home, he said his parents were not proud of his accomplishment at Dreamhack. “They wanted me to go to college.” Tensions grew between him and his parents over his choice of career, until in 2011 his parents told him to leave the house. He did, taking his prize money from Dreamhack and his computer. Peng wrote about the event on Reddit in a thread titled “Hi I’m Doublelift, formerly of team [Epik Gamer], and today I became homeless.” With no college degree or family to return to, he decided to go all-in on his professional gaming career. Peng began earning money for writing educational League of Legends content for Team Curse. “I pretty much made half the guides for that site… I was just super happy and I could finally pay rent that month.”
Peng comes from California, and started playing console games before jumping to PC titles such as DotA, World of Warcraft, and Heroes of Newerth before eventually moving to League of Legends. In an interview with Machinima in 2013, Peng said his relationship with his parents was strained over his dream of being a professional esports player. “I would always struggle with my parents… we would just argue over everything, especially games. When I wanted to play they thought it was just a complete waste of time. It got worse and worse over the years.” Peng first entered professional League of Legends when he gained the attention of George “HotshotGG” Georgallidis, founder of Counter Logic Gaming (CLG), who recruited him as a substitute Support player. Shortly after, Peng left CLG to become the starter Support for Epik Gamer. He later joined UnRestricted as the starting AD Carry. The team was acquired by Team Curse later that year.
On February 27, 2013, CLG participated in the Riot Season 3 North American League Championship Series Spring Split.
A week before the final, Peng learned that his mother Wei Ping Shen was killed and his father Guojon Peng seriously injured after his older brother Yihong Peng allegedly stabbed them in their family home in San Juan Capistrano California. Peng posted on Twitlonger “I’m still processing this news and joining up with my dad and little brother to make sure they’re ok and the proper arrangements are being made. I’ll likely be quiet on social media while I work through this. I hope you all understand and support me as you always have in the past.” In an interview with Machinima in 2013, Peng had said his older brother was his biggest influence on his life and career, and that he had regrets with his falling out with his parents and wished to make amends in the future, but with his busy career “right now I can’t do that, I’m too busy.” Despite the pressure faced during this event, Steve Arhancet, owner and co-CEO of Team Liquid, announced that Doublelift would not be taking time off and was determined to play in the final as planned. In the final, Team Liquid convincingly defeated 100 Thieves 3-0 and won its first league championship.
Before the start of the 2017 season, Team SoloMid announced that Peng would be taking a hiatus from professional League of Legends during the spring split, saying “it’s time for a small break.” While he would remain contracted to the team, he would be streaming full-time until his return to professional play in the summer when, according to Team SoloMid owner Andy Dinh, he would have to compete with his replacement to return to the starting roster. In the past, Peng has spoken out about the never-ending competitive schedule for professional League of Legends. After representing North America in the All-Star 2013 in Shanghai, Peng said in a Reddit AMA “I’m just tired of playing all day every day, and I want a goddamn break but it’s not possible to get one.” In a Reddit AMA in 2014, Peng said “Most people who look at pros think that we live the dream life when in reality you either practice 16 hours a day or lose and end up frustrated. Sometimes you practice 16 hours a day and still end up losing.” One month later, Team SoloMid announced that WildTurtle would be Peng’s replacement for the 2017 spring split. In an interview, teammate Bjergsen agreed with Dinh’s initial announcement that Peng would need to compete with his replacement, saying “I want WildTurtle to succeed and I wasn’t just sitting around waiting for Peter because I wanted someone who was committed, and like I said I was disappointed and I felt he wasn’t very committed. I didn’t feel like he should just have the luxury of going out and making a lot of money [streaming] and returning to the team… No matter how good of a friend they are to me, if someone decides he’s just going to take six months off and he thinks he’s can just reenter the team, that’s just not okay with me because I think everyone has to earn their spot.”
CLG and Peng were fined on January 6, 2015 after being found guilty of poaching ZionSpartan. CLG was fined $2,000 while Peng was fined $2,500. Furthermore, CLG was restricted from fielding ZionSpartan as a player or coach for the first week of the 2015 LCS Spring Split.
Fresh out of a group stage exit at Worlds 2018, Team Liquid announced the signing of Jensen and former world champion CoreJJ to the midlane and support positions respectively. With their newly revamped roster, Team Liquid finished 14-4 on the 2019 Spring Split advancing to the Spring finals to face Doublelift’s former team TSM. Team Liquid dropped the first two games of the series, and on the brink of elimination, Liquid picked up three straight wins to beat TSM in the best of 5 series, thus earning Doublelift his 6th championship and 3rd straight title win. Despite coming off of a strong performance in the Spring playoffs, Team Liquid struggled initially in the group stage of MSI 2019, but with a strong finish to the group stage they secured a 4th place seeding in the playoffs. This marked the first time Doublelift making it out of groups stage at an international tournament. In a surprising upset, the 4th seeded Team Liquid defeated the defending world champions, Invictus Gaming, in a four game series. Team Liquid advanced to the finals to face G2 Esports, where they were ultimately defeated in a 3-0 sweep.
