Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the world's game collection.
The MSI Mid-Season Championship officially ended yesterday with the script of JDG's victory, and the LPL's civil war still presents a relatively obvious one-sided situation, JDG's current strength is the world's only level, and other teams are difficult to compete with.
After JDG won the championship, the least probable script we expected before the game appeared, and the LPL also ushered in bad news.
After JDG's victory, the LPL had bad news
As we all know, in addition to the MSI mid-season and S13 world championships this year, for the LPL and LCK divisions, there is also an extremely important event is the Asian Games LOL e-sports project, before the start of MSI, LCK and LPL have conducted a wave of training, but the results are not disclosed, LCK gave a time point is to announce the final list in late May or early June.
There are only a few days until the end of May, which means that the LCK side of KeSPA needs to make a decision, and the LPL side should be similar, with the final list announced before or shortly after the start of the summer season.
The 20-man roster given by LCK includes players who will play in the LPL division, and JDG's Kanavi and Ruler are among them, which are likely to be selected for the Korean national team, and before the start of MSI, we had a script for Ruler or Kanavi to be selected for the final list.
is that Ruler showed fault-level strength on MSI, crushing the other two Korean AD, Kanavi is also a similar situation, and the result is that this MSI did appear such a script, which is bad news for LPL and JDG, the audience does not want LPL players to fight in civil war, and Ruler and Kanavi (watch the movie) both know the JDG players' playing style better.
Ruler talks about the Asian Games first, and Kanavi mocks LCK
After JDG won the championship, Ruler and Kanavi also quickly gave an interview about the attitude of the Asian Games, when asked about the possibility of being selected for the Korean national team, Ruler and Kanavi began to kick each other's balls, Ruler asked Kanavi to answer first, Kanavi refused, and replied: Brother, you reply first.
Ruler is embarrassed by his current status: although I personally think that I am one step closer to [being selected for the national team], but anyway, the league I currently belong to is LPL, it should be a little difficult (to be selected), if selected, it is a great honor for me, and the last time I participated in the Asian Games, it actually left a shadow, and if I am selected this time, I want to remove that shadow.
Kanavi then gave his own answer: First of all, because we won this MSI championship, everyone cares about me, but in fact, there is still a long time before the Asian Games, and I don't know if I can maintain my current strength, and I have been playing in the LPL, so far I don't know.
Ruler felt outrageous after listening to it, and then said: What, you man.
This interview is actually a good indication of the attitude of the two players, in fact, both of them have a lot of concerns, and according to the will, Kanavi does not seem to want to be selected for the Asian Games at all.
Once selected, JDG players are under a lot of pressure
Kanavi's interview has actually been emphasizing through hints that he has been playing in the LPL, although I am in good shape now, but maybe I pulled it when I played the Asian Games, and there was a wave of LCK irony, because he won the championship to give him a lot of care, and he was not interested in being selected for the Asian Games.
Ruler's side is different, but Ruler also has a lot of concerns, and he also showed his identity, currently a player in the LPL league, it will be difficult to be selected, but if he is really selected in the end, he will go all out.
Here we can substitute the roles of the two players and briefly analyze what will happen when they are selected for the Asian Games.
Personally, I think that the two players who are selected for the Asian Games have to bear great pressure, which is equivalent to saying that Ruler and Kanavi have become middlemen, not pleasing inside and out, if they are selected for the national team and lose if they do not perform well, they will definitely be scolded by the LCK audience, and if they help LCK win, the audience on the LPL side will also be dissatisfied.
And when selected for the national team, the two players basically have no right to speak, especially Kanavi.
Personally, I think that the possibility of Kanavi being selected for the national team is much less than that of Ruler, and the final possibility is that it is selected alone, but the probability will not be so high, you can wait for follow-up news.
