On May 29, 2023, Beijing time, the first week of the 2023 LPL Summer Season regular season will officially kick off on this day. It is worth mentioning that the Asian Games will be ushered in in September, which will lead to a very intensive schedule of the summer competition, which is also a very big test for LPL professional players. So, without further ado, let's find out what to see on the unveiling day!
UP VS AL
Compared to the UP in the spring race, the only auxiliary position of the UP in the summer race has changed, and SwordArt has replaced the position of the royal blue. From the overall performance of the UP Spring Tournament, although it has the former world champion Nosuke of Ning Wang and Baolan, the double C players Forge and Doggo still have more potential. However, because UP never had a way to play better chemistry, the spring game performed very badly. Perhaps to solve this problem, UP introduced SwordArt in the summer season. Because compared with Baolan, SwordArt is not only more experienced in the competition, but also serves as the core brain of many teams. Perhaps, under the direction of SwordArt, the UP Summer Race can play a certain change. And what's more interesting is that SwordArt's debut in UP is facing its old club AL, and he is still looking forward to what kind of performance SwordArt can play.
Compared to the spring session, the AL double path in the summer session has changed, with zhiqiuyi in the ADC position being the former RNG second team and Zorah in the support position being the former RA supporting player. In addition, it is worth mentioning that iBoy actually joined AL in the summer season, but did not appear on the starting list. Judging from the performance of the AL spring race, it is actually half a pound and eight taels compared with UP. In the summer season, both teams underwent personnel changes on their way. So, can this change have a big impact on the team? Let's wait and see!
TT VS FPX
Compared to the spring race, the TT summer race is also a change in the two-man road. Not only did he boldly use newcomer 1XN, but he also signed support player Yuyanjia. From the starting list of this game, the duo combination of 1XN and Yuyanjia became the starter, and Huanfeng who played well last season became the substitute. And from the spring TT performance is still quite good, although it is a round in the playoffs, but in the regular season it beat many top teams. Therefore, it is still worth looking forward to how far TT can grow in the summer race.
As for FPX, TT's opponent in this game, from the starting list, it is still a continuation of the lineup of the spring game. However, it is worth mentioning that during the transfer period, FPX actually introduced a wild player Bonnie. Judging from the performance of the FPX Spring Game, it is also worse. I don't know if there will be some changes with the arrival of new players.
Finally, guys, which two teams do you think will get the opener?
