Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the world game club.
The LPL Spring Tournament will officially start this afternoon, just when the audience is waiting for the game to start, the LPL official is once again because of a wave of "riot operations" and caused controversy, this operation is in yesterday's countdown to a day of publicity map, on this promotional map, the EDG team did not stand in the C position.
Originally, there was not much trouble, but I did not expect that the official had another wave of riot operations today, secretly changing the promotional map, which made EDG fans feel wrong.
The LPL propaganda map sparked controversy
First of all, let's briefly talk about the specific situation of the matter, that is, yesterday the LPL officially released a publicity map for the countdown to the day, which is the image of the players who selected the LPL four teams that entered the S competition, from the perspective of the characters, they are the assistant Meiko of the EDG team, the upper single tiger of the RNG team, the Tarzan of the LNG team and the lower Lwx of the FPX team.
One of the people standing in the C position is the RNG Tiger, which is the first point of controversy, but not the main point.
The main point is in the upper right corner of the promotional map, above the original promotional image, is the picture of RNG winning the MSI championship, and it is placed in a more conspicuous position.
Then in the lower position, there is a picture of EDG winning the summer championship and holding up the Silver Dragon Cup, and the headshots of the four players are placed at the same time, which is the four players below.
Regarding this promotional image, some EDG fans pointed out that EDG has suffered unfair treatment.
But more EDG fans and viewers think it's okay, this promotional map is nothing, because it is not so important, but did not expect that the LPL official responsible for the drawing, but directly came a wave of emergency changes, directly changed the content in the picture.
LPL urgently modifies the promotional image
Pay attention to the comparison of two different promotional pictures, the second is the latest version, pay attention to the upper right corner, the picture of the EDG team touching the Silver Dragon Cup has not been changed to the picture of S11 winning the Summoner Trophy, this wave of operations directly led to greater controversy, originally the audience fans felt nothing, but this wave of changes proved to be problematic.
The audience has said that this wave of official operations is described in four words to cover up the appearance, it is better not to change, and after the change, it will cause greater controversy.
It is also because of this promotional map of the countdown to the LPL Spring Games that the RNG team has also been affected, because yesterday it broke out that the RNG team appeal and the ES team fought a lawsuit, and the appeal was that the district court had no jurisdiction and should be handed over to the official dispute resolution agency of the League of Legends.
Because of this matter, some viewers began to suspect that the LPL was LRL, thinking that RNG may really be "close" to the official relationship.
After this thing came out, the audience began to target RNG again, this wave of RNG can really be said to be people sitting at home, the pot from the sky, of course, we don't know the specific situation, only know that this wave of LPL operations offended a lot of people.
Various problems with official operations
In fact, in the past two years, the LPL official in the emergence of a variety of operational problems have appeared a lot, last year LPL responsible for the control of the field of the director is very outrageous, a look is very amateurish, and then recently, the league of legends official Weibo operator is also a wave of riot operations, directly use the official account to like some Western stereotypes of our stereotypes related microblogs, but also by the audience angrily reprimanded.
As far as the publicity map is concerned, I personally think that there is a problem with the staff who is responsible for making the map, and it is possible that this person is a fan of RNG, so he deliberately gave the RNG team player C position, if this is the case, it is an act of entrainment of private goods.
It is also possible that the staff member was lazy and did not use the material of the EDG World Championship to make the picture (of course, there is also a possibility that the controversy was deliberately created in this way to increase the heat of the game).
In short, the various operations of the official, in the future should try to avoid the emergence of various controversies, especially a variety of operators and staff, many times these individuals represent the official, if these individuals like to carry some private goods, the official evaluation will certainly be negatively affected, I hope that the LPL official can pay attention to this matter, although the publicity map of this matter is not big, but also to be wary of all kinds of staff in the future more outrageous operations.
