The first round of the 2023 "Honor of Kings" World Championship Cup Qualifiers has just ended, and before the start of the second round of the qualifiers. The official suddenly announced a blockbuster news, which really shocked many KPL insiders into a daze. What's going on? The official announcement of the World Championship has changed the competition system halfway!
From November 29th, that is, from the main event of the World Championship, a new rule will be added: each side can use a maximum of 1 AOV hero per game. In the follow-up main game, we will no longer see eight or nine AOV heroes in 1 game, or even all of them. In addition, it's still 5 bans! It is estimated that the friends who have been confused about watching the World Championship event recently are more happy to hear this news!
One thing to say, this sudden change in the competition system really caught many KPL insiders off guard! There is no doubt that there was the same scolding, and even more exaggerated this time than it was then. But at that time, the vast majority of people complained not about the global BP, but about the timing of the launch of this system. It is no exaggeration to say that the global BP once saved the ratings of the king event! and the global BP, which was frantically complained about as soon as it was launched, has now become an important part and even a feature of the king event.
At that time, the reason why the global BP was launched was because the viewing of the game had dropped sharply, and it had always been "Gongsun Li vs. Marco Polo", and there was still a lot of meat in hand-to-hand combat, and then the two sides fought for a long time, and both sides were out of state, and there was no kill at all. Because of this, many viewers have been complaining. Although the competition system was changed during the competition at that time, before it was launched, the official actually spent a lot of time researching and improving the competition system.
And this time, it was really sudden, the first round of the World Championship qualifiers had just ended, and it was only 2 match days, and the format was immediately changed. It is not difficult to see from the speed of the official response that it is clear that the situation this time should be more serious than before. After all, on these two match days, there are quite a lot of viewers who complain that they can't understand the game. The official pace of this World Championship is still too big, 22 new AOV heroes are launched in one go, and there are no heroes in the official server, many viewers are at a loss, at a loss! The audience is the lifeblood of the king event, when there are a large number of audience complaints, the official naturally needs to actively listen to opinions and make adjustments in time. This is the main reason why the official response was so swift!
Personally, I think that although it is a bit bad to change the competition system in the middle of the game, it is possible that this time the competition system will be the same as the previous global BP, and it will be scolded at the beginning, but it will be really fragrant later. And if the official launches this format before the start of the World Championship, maybe this World Championship will be very successful.
