ArrHedge

Chan Roonghan, better known as ArrHedge, is a former Malaysian League of Legends player who made his name in the mid lane. He has since stepped away from competition, and his place in history is tied to the Southeast Asian scene at a time when regional teams were still establishing themselves internationally. He is best known for his time with the Kuala Lumpur Hunters, a squad that represented Malaysian talent in a field where neighboring nations had long held the upper hand.

Life in the Mid Lane

Mid laners often set the rhythm for their side, which means carrying a heavy load both in mechanics and in decision-making. ArrHedge would have had to dictate how the early minutes unfolded, rotate to help in the side lanes, and turn small lane leads into pressure across the entire map. The role places a premium on flexibility, because a mid laner may be asked to play assassins, control mages, or utility champions depending on the draft and the current meta.

Representing Malaysia

Suiting up for the Kuala Lumpur Hunters meant ArrHedge helped sustain Malaysian presence during a stretch when competitive League of Legends in Southeast Asia was moving toward more structured regional organizations. A nationally branded roster tends to matter a great deal, often becoming a rallying point for local supporters and up-and-coming players. In a smaller esports market, each athlete who reaches this stage helps push the wider scene forward.

A Career Remembered

Now that his competitive career has concluded, ArrHedge is part of a group of players whose impact is judged less by trophies than by the foundation they built for others. Leaving competition is a normal step in any pro’s path, and former players often move into coaching, content creation, or mentoring to stay involved with the game. Whatever he chooses to do off the Rift, ArrHedge stays linked to the early development of Malaysian competitive League of Legends, a legacy that still feeds into the region’s ongoing growth.
