A League of Legends (LOL) player has been suspended until 2020 after he was caught on a livestream making physical threats against his girlfriend.

Chinese LOL player Li Wei Jun, who goes under the name Vasilii, was fired earlier in October from Chinese team Newbee, and an investigation into his behaviour was launched.

Riot has announced that the player would be suspended for 20 competitive months, which run from Jan to Oct — meaning he’ll effectively be banned until January 2020.
