The first round of the Cup was released, eStar and TTG were unveiled, AG prime time, DRG finale

The 2023 Honor of Kings Challenger Cup will kick off on October 13, when a total of 16 teams, including 8 KPL teams, 3 K-League teams, 3 national competition teams and 2 streamer teams, will compete for the championship. A few days ago, the draw ceremony of the first round of the cup was over, and a total of two groups of KPL civil wars will appear in the first round,

At present, the league has announced the first round schedule, eStar and TTG unveiling, AG prime time, DRG finale.

eStar and TTG were unveiled

Wuhan eStarPro and Guangzhou TTG meet in the first round to open the Challenger Cup.

I believe everyone is looking forward to this match, because eStar is the champion of the first two Challenger Cups, and TTG is the champion of the new KPL league, and the meeting between the two championship teams will be very exciting. eStar's captain Hua Hai and Lu Tan Ran both returned from winning gold at the Asian Games, and their return will certainly increase the team's strength. TTG has just won the championship, the whole team is in good morale and in excellent form, and this opener is worth looking forward to.

AG prime time

On the first day of the match, in addition to the Star War, "Galaxy Battleship" Chengdu AG Super Play Club will also appear, and they will face their old rival Suzhou KSG in prime time.

The grudges and feuds between AG and KSG must be clear to many friends, and Xiaoyu will not repeat it here. AG's cup picking list is a return of Nuohe Milk Tea, and the training team also invited the head coach of eStar Summer Game, AK, as an assistant coach, which will be a higher level than the summer game. KSG's lineup has basically taken shape through the run-in of the summer competition, and their ability to break through the loser's group and finish third in the summer tournament is definitely a reflection of their strength.

DRG finale

The grand finale of the first round will be played between the Foshan DRG and the BOA.

DRG was in poor form in the summer, first falling to Group A in the first round and then breaking in the playoffs, missing the Final Four for the first time in recent seasons. I believe that they have already reflected and adjusted in the offseason, and the performance of the cup picking is worth watching. BOA is the champion of the K-League Summer Tournament, and they can also get the "Challenger's Blessing" buff in this game, maybe they can use the mastery system to pose some threat to DRG.

Light rain view

Xiaoyu believes that the two KPL civil wars will certainly be hot, but other games are also worth watching, especially the newly added anchor team in this cup, how big the gap between them and the professional players is, we can see at a glance.

I hope that the 16 teams participating in the competition can cheer well, play their own style, and leave no regrets.
