In the esports world, every event touches the hearts of countless players and fans. Recently, the playoffs of the LPL Spring Tournament are in full swing, and the major teams are fighting fiercely for the championship. Many teams also showed amazing strength, and TES won 3-0 to advance to the upper bracket finals.
This year's MSI Worlds was even more in the spotlight because it brought unprecedented privileges: the champion team not only had a direct access to the S Series, but also received additional S spots in their respective regions and had the opportunity to be invited to the Oil Cup. These privileges undoubtedly make this year's MSI championship a favorite in the eyes of the major teams.
However, in this passionate and competitive arena, there are also some discordant voices. Recently, some netizens took stock of the previous S championship teams, and even listed the so-called "most goldless" champions, believing that the reason why these teams were able to win the championship was all due to luck. As soon as this point of view came out, it immediately sparked widespread discussion and controversy.
The champions in question include S8's IG, S9's FPX, S10's DWG, S11's EDG, S12's DRX, and S13's t1. These teams were not considered to have faced the favourites of the time, so their titles lacked value. This view clearly ignores the strength and hard work that these teams have shown in the competition, as well as what they have achieved in the fierce competition.
In fact, every S tournament is a competition of the world's top teams, and every team that can stand on the final stage has gone through layers of selection and testing. Their victory was not only a matter of luck, but also a sign of strength. Therefore, we should give due respect and affirmation to these so-called "goldless" champion teams.
Every event in the esports world is a new beginning, and every team has the opportunity to prove themselves on the field. We should be more open and inclusive to enjoy every game and cheer for every team that works hard. And you can't use the concept of a certain wild list or netizens to discredit the existence of the championship.
After all, in this arena of passion and dreams, every champion deserves to be remembered. There's no doubt that every champion is the result of hard training and hard fighting, but I wonder what everyone has to say about it.
