Li Weijun (Chinese: 李威俊), better known by his online alias Vasilii,[n 1] is a Chinese video game streamer and former professional League of Legends player. In late 2017, Li was given an 18-month competitive ban by Riot Games for beating his girlfriend during a livestream, an incident which prompted Chinese authorities to investigate and arrest him for domestic violence. Prior to his suspension he was a member of LPL team Newbee, and he was best known outside of China as the former AD carry for LCS team LMQ.[2][3][4]
