During the pre-show of the world finals, Jatt mentioned that the CEO of FPX was a former game designer at Riot and a 2400 Elo Tryndamere one trick. https://youtu.be/ojes5ULOqhc?t=27374
I found this very interesting so I decided to do a little more research on the history of this guy.
According to many articles and forum posts, FunPlus Phoenix's current CEO, Chun Li, was known as RiotChun when he worked for Riot's Design team. He reached challenger elo on the NA ladder with Tryndamere (apparently his highest rank was 4th on the ladder, I didn't bother to confirm this).
BUT the BIGGEST FACT of all: he was the game designer responsible for 7 of the nerfs to pre-rework Irelia in the early days of league! (AKA the "better nerf irelia" meme)
For the old irelia mains who wish to see what the man(or devil) looks like: https://new.qq.com/omn/20191102/20191102A02YH100.html
