PTG Database Analysis

Lin Yuhong (林宇鸿), known competitively as Tangyuan, is the mid laner for LGD Gaming in the League of Legends Pro League. Riot’s current roster lists him as Yuhong Lin, and LGD’s 2026 lineup announcement names him at mid. He moved to Royal Never Give Up’s main roster in January 2023 and left in December 2025 before joining LGD.[1][2][3][4]

Tangyuan was named the LPL Summer 2023 regular-season Outstanding Rookie and later earned a place on the 2026 Split 3 Third All-Pro Team. These league awards document recognition across multiple seasons. His evidenced commercial fit is competition-focused Chinese-language content distributed with LGD; his public Weibo profile identifies him as an LGD League of Legends player. Sponsored activity involving game or league assets would require the relevant player, club, league and publisher approvals.[5][6][7]
