Faker was hacked, the T1 game was paralyzed for a while, the LCK suffered serious losses, and the official was questioned

Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World Game Exchange.

The matches between LPL and LCK are going on, and the games are getting more and more exciting, but what I didn't expect was that a surprising plot was staged in the recent LCK arena.

In yesterday's T1 vs. FOX match, there was a special situation where the match could not be played due to a hack.

Faker was hacked, and the game was paralyzed for a while

Viewers who often watch LCK matches should know that one of the things that happened in the previous LCK game was that in the BO3 match between DK and DRX, there were 8 pauses, the game was paralyzed for a while, and a BO3 played for seven hours, the highest in history, and there was also a famous scene during the pause, ShowMaker almost fell asleep with his eyes closed in his chair.

This BO3 is an extreme torture for the players, the audience, the commentary, and the staff.

The audience also wanted to know the specific reason, and found that it was actually a DDoS attack, DDoS is essentially a hacker attack, which is to use a large number of broilers, imitate the behavior of real users, access the target server, so that the target server's resources are exhausted, and finally unable to serve customers.

Take the plot of the TV series as an example, Liu Huaqiang took a group of communities to the game hall to make trouble, occupying seats but not playing, resulting in other people who wanted to play the game unable to play the game.

In yesterday's LCK game, the match between T1 and FOX was also attacked by DDoS, which paralyzed the game for a while, and after coming back, T1 chose to directly speed up the game to end the game, and then in the second game of the LCK, he directly gave up the live broadcast and switched to recording.

The LCK suffered serious losses, and the official was questioned

Regarding this attack, viewers who didn't know at first may think that it was used to target the LCK league, but judging from some of Faker's recent RANK and live broadcasts, the target of this hacking operation looks more like Faker, because Faker has suffered DDoS attacks in a large number of rankings recently, and there have been a large number of teammates disconnected.

Faker also gave his own evaluation during the live broadcast: I don't think they are bad, but I feel sorry for them, because it is a very outrageous value to be able to make such a reckless illegal act and hurtful action, because what people think about all the time they are alive is the pursuit of meaning, the tendency to be happy, if not, the pain will return to themselves completely, and I feel that such people are pity.

This attack has brought serious losses to the LCK, because from the current situation, the LCK official does not have the ability to solve this problem, which means that similar situations may occur in the following games, and after the previous seven hours of BO3 incident, spectators who want to go to the game will have to think about it.

LPL viewers are worried that a similar situation will arise

I believe that the audience who knows about hackers can know that DDoS attacks are relatively unsolvable to some extent, and Faker, as the first person in the alliance, can be said to have been targeted again, and the previously ranked actors have already made Faker very annoyed, and this time there is a more unsolvable DDoS.

Yesterday's opponent was FOX, and T1 can still win when the strength is relatively weak, but if a similar situation occurs in the later stronger teams, the mentality is affected, and the quality of daily training is difficult to guarantee, it is difficult for T1 to guarantee that they will win all the time.

Now LCK viewers and fans are questioning LCK officials and Riot, and in the face of such an attack, they did not give a good response to ensure that the league can enter the stadium as usual.

LPL viewers are also more worried about similar attacks in the future, and many people suspect that they will be attacked after the version update, and it is possible that other regions will also experience these things.

Personally, I think this incident is a problem for Riot, including the league official, when there is such an obvious hacker attack, whether it can be effectively dealt with, find the root cause of the problem and solve it, and you can pay attention to the T1 game to see if there will be a similar situation.
