Chapter 90 LPL Official Interview (1)
"LPL and LCK will share the four first places in the group stage."
"Four stars: if you eliminate our SKG, I will eliminate your ESG."
"Will there be a big battle between China and South Korea in the finals?"
"Can the LPL end the two-year-old final LCK civil war situation?"
"It still depends on the LPL to end the LCK hegemony."
At the end of the group stage, it was not surprising that GG and shg of the LPL won the first place in the two groups of AB respectively. The four-star and KX teams in the LCK region won the first place in the CD two groups, respectively.
Moreover, the KX team still won all six games to advance, and it was also the only one of the four teams to win all of them.
This result was very surprising to everyone. The first is the elimination of skg, and the second is the sudden rise of LPL. So a lot of media have done side reports.
"LPL: The Return of the King."
"Two years of silence is not a self-willed fall, but an accumulation of strength for today's cocoon to become a butterfly."
"Can the LPL regain the throne of the strongest division."
There was also a lot of silence in the media that paid tribute to the rest of the team:
"This year's finals are a gladiatorial arena for the LCK and LPL. It's tragic for teams from other regions, who can only play a supporting role. ”
"S6 has been a tragic year for the rest of the divisions, but the most exciting year for the entire LOL. The fierce collision of the two strongest divisions will surely burst out the most exciting sparks. ”
"I don't agree with some media outlets, this year is a tragic year for other regions, isn't it tragic that the LCK dominates the finals stage?
Rather than watching LCK's one-man show, I prefer the current situation of the two strong competition. At least there was suspense and we could see a good game. ”
"Although the competition is still going on, I dare to assert that this will be the best grand final."
For any kind of sport, watching too many games without suspense will lose the fun. If the NBA championship is a team every year, if the Champions League remains the same every year, if the World Cup is always the preserve of one country......
The allure of these world's most famous events will drop to an unbelievable level.
Sports events such as basketball and football can be endured because of factors such as spectacle and real-life confrontation. Even if the championship of the Ten Realms and Eight Realms is the same team, everyone still looks at it (except for the World Cup).
But esports is different, and video games have a much worse lifespan than these traditional sports...... Let's put it this way, there is no way to compare at all. Traditional sports can flourish for a hundred years or a thousand years......
But it's rare for video games to be popular for ten years, almost none for twenty years, and only for more than twenty years is to watch Tetris (the meaning is understandable, you don't have to take it seriously).
Dota has been around for a long time. Although LOL is still the most popular game in the world, it is undeniable that his popularity is gradually declining.
The lifespan of video games is already so short, if the champion is always monopolized by a certain division. In three or five years, everyone will not be able to accept it.
LOL has held a total of six finals, with the LCK winning five, and the first two finals were both LCK civil wars. What do you want viewers from other regions to think?
More and more players are moving on to other games.
There must be a lot of people who are tired of playing and want to change the game factor, but it must have something to do with the finals LCK family.
Who are the players of video games? Youngster.
People at this age are susceptible to external influences for mood swings. You can be bored with something for a small reason, or you can be crazy about chasing something because of a little thing.
The LCK is dominant, and its own division is beaten every year, which hurts their hearts. Or out of disappointment in their own region, or out of anger, so they blame LOL for the game, and choose not to play.
Even if you can't win the championship in your own region, you can at least make the finals look better and be more competitive. At least let us know that the finals are not a stage for LCK soloists.
Therefore, for the sudden rise of the LPL, people other than LCK are supportive. Especially the palm official spared no effort to hype up this matter.
Thanks to this, the two teams of the LPL, GG and shg, have become the biggest beneficiaries, and their fame has quickly spread all over the world.
As the most famous player in the LPL, Brother Dao's identity as the world's No. 1 AD is even more golden. Niu Wensong is also considered the most competitive player for the title of the first person in League of Legends.
Naturally, the LPL official was not far behind, and sent a more luxurious working group to interview GG and shg.
Last time, it was mainly a picture and text interview, and a lot of videos were recorded, but they were all used as dynamic pictures. This time it's an interview in the form of a documentary, a real full-fledged shot.
In the large temporary training hall, all the members of GG and skg, and the eight commentators of the LPL gathered together......
Well, here's an explanation. Because GG achieved good results in the finals, the rich second-generation boss behind them happily added additional funds. Accommodation in GG has been upgraded from a small hostel to a star hotel.
And because GG and skg trained together with a remarkable effect, the two teams got along well in private and gradually deepened.
The big boss with a deep background behind SHG also waved his hand and covered all the spare rooms on the floor where GG lived. A conference room was also rented for the two teams to train together.
As for why the Eight Great Commentaries are here...... They also have nothing to do during the break, so they naturally go to the team.
It can deepen feelings. You can learn more about the game by touching it, and the level of commentary can be increased. You can also know more routines and so on.
"I really didn't expect that your two teams would move together. It's okay now, and it saves us from running at both ends. Yu Xiaoguang, the leader of the official press corps, said happily.
"And how are you going to thank us?" Holo and Brother Feng stepped forward to greet him.
"I'll give you two a little more footage later, how about it be interesting." Yu Xiaoguang said with a laugh.
"Okay, you Yu Xiaoguang, you know how to be a scoundrel. Who is rare of your few shots, you don't give any of them if you have the ability. Brother Feng said.
"Honestly, how did you two teams move together? What to think. Yu Xiaoguang asked curiously.
"It's easy to train together, one division." Holo just nodded lightly, but everyone understood the meaning.
In a division, there is no fear of being learned by others, nor is it afraid of someone leaking tactics. This is only one of the reasons, and there is no need to talk to others about more reasons.
"I think the audience of the LPL prefers to see this kind of picture." Reporter Ah Shuang said next to him.
"So I felt the need to have a group photo to surprise the audience." Yu Xiaoguang said thoughtfully.
Then, it's better to act than to act.
"Everyone's smiles are natural. Okay, that's all. ”
With a crisp click, a photo that will be fanatically sought after by LPL players in the future is born. But at this time, no one on the scene realized this. I just thought it was an ordinary group photo.
