Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the world game club.
The LPL will usher in a heavyweight showdown today, EDG vs. RNG, the two teams currently have the same record, this game will determine which team has the opportunity to attack the second place, and losing the game, it is almost impossible to compete for the second place, so it is speculated that both teams will go all out to win in this game.
However, before the start of the game, the EDG team caused dissatisfaction among RNG fans because of the pre-match poster, including many non-two-team fans who also felt that there was a problem with the EDG poster design. Let's take a closer look.
EDG pre-match posters caused controversy
Many teams in the LPL will have their figurative image, the EDG team considers itself a knight, after the start of this spring game, almost every poster of EDG is related to the knight, and the design style is dark and dark, there have been some posters before that make the audience feel not very good, and yesterday's poster against RNG caused more controversy.
As shown in this pre-match poster, EDG's artist designed an image of a knight standing with his back to the audience, but only showed the lower body, and under the crotch of the knight symbolizing EDG, there was a small bear shivering in the corner, and the bear represented the RNG team.
The biggest point of controversy and dissatisfaction caused by this poster is that the cloak-like thing under the crotch of the EDG team is stretched in the shadow, giving people an uncomfortable look and feel, which will remind people of bad things.
Because of this poster, RNG fans began to scold EDG artists, and the gunpowder smell of the two teams before the start of the game was upgraded, and the fans of the two teams began to spray each other on major forums.
Some forums also opened voting stickers to let the audience vote whether there was a problem with this poster, and as a result, nearly 70% of people thought that there was a problem, which made people uncomfortable.
Overall review of the EDG poster
For this pre-game poster of EDG, I personally think that there is indeed a problem with its design, but it should be noted that this is only for the artists of EDG, not for the team and players of EDG, because the artists are specifically responsible for this piece, and the players and management will certainly not participate in the production of such posters.
Therefore, I want to remind everyone that this matter is not the reason for everyone to set off various insults on the Internet, you can point out the problem and say your own views and opinions, but do not attack irrelevant people, such as scolding the EDG team or players because of this matter, and then fighting back against RNG in the same way, it is not right to do so.
Speaking of the problem of posters, normally speaking, in some posters produced by various movies or other forms of art, there is a composition that simply shows the crotch of a man, and its intention basically involves violence, X aggression and other bad things.
However, if it is to show women's crotch, its intention is completely different, and a large number of movies at home and abroad use posters that focus on women's crotches, focusing on a theme of female figure and women reversing the dominance of men and women, simply put, in such posters, women are more powerful.
Other controversial posters of EDG
In fact, in addition to this poster of the battle RNG, some of the previous posters of EDG have also caused controversy, one of the styles of the poster of the EDG spring game this year will portray the opponent as a very weak image, and EDG is a tall and mighty knight, so it will also give people a feeling that the knight is deliberately bullying the weak, including the poster of the RNG.
TT includes the poster of OMG, which depicts a tall and mighty knight preparing to target a weeping villain in a very dark style, the composition of the two sides is obviously in an unequal position of strength, and the poster of OMG is to visualize OMG as a panda, which is similar to the composition of TT.
Then there is the poster of EDG playing WBG, which is called the most terrifying poster by the audience, because in the poster, the big-eyed monster image of the WBG team is a bit crazy, and it also gives people a feeling of discomfort, these EDG posters have had some controversy before, but they are not as serious as this time playing RNG.
In short, I personally suggest that if the artists of EDG see these controversies, they can slightly adjust the composition and design of the pre-game poster in the future game to avoid the recurrence of similar controversies, and also hope that the audience can pay more attention to the game, and hope that RNG and EDG can provide a wonderful match match for the audience tonight.
