“Call me master, thank you,” he wrote in his Instagram story, and followed up by sharing that it took him more than 3,600 ranked games just for him to hit this milestone.

He commented that playing this amount of games to reach this rank is a bit much, especially for a League of Legends ambassador.

“I’m too competent, don’t you think?” he joked.

Jay Chou then thanked Chang “SoCool” Bo-hsin and Yang “MapleSnow” Yu-wei for duo queuing with him. They are currently coaches of ONE Team, a professional WR team founded by Samsung Taiwan and Cathay Financial Holdings.

“If you want to do something, you should go all the way but… I’ve already achieved Master. I shall rest for a bit,” he added in his Instagram post.
