Just now, the LPL league officially announced a rather heavy news: Starting from this year's summer game, the competition system will be completely reformed! This confirms the previous revelations of Doinb, Han Yi and others: The global BP mode is really coming! However, this time the changes to the competition system are far more than that, and at the same time, the regular season has introduced grouping, group and other modes, which can be described as quite large!
Under the new competition system, the LPL regular season will be divided into the following four stages, namely: draw group match, set group match, group match, and place grabbing match!
According to the "home avoidance principle", the four home teams will be arranged in different groups, and then the parallel grouping method will be used to determine the grouping of each team through the draw, so as to ensure that each group has one team with the first, second, third and fourth seed pools (refer to the previous group stage grouping model of the S competition, everyone will understand).
This stage will use the global BP mode, that is, in the same BO3 match, the heroes who have been used in the completed matches will not be selected again. Four groups will be ranked in the group through a double round-robin BO3 mode, with the bottom two teams entering Group B and the rest of the teams entering Group A.
The teams in Groups A and B will each play a round of BO3 round-robin matches to determine the rankings in the group. Among them, the top seven teams in Group A will lock in the playoffs in advance, while the teams ranked 5-8 in Group B will be directly announced to be eliminated, and they can only regrettably prepare for the S15 season in advance. At the same time, the top two teams in Group A will have the team ranked 8-9 in Group A, and the team ranked 1-4 in Group B will enter the final "place grabbing" stage together with the team ranked 1-4 in Group B!
In the tie-up stage, the six teams will decide their opponents by drawing lots, and they will face each other in pairs, using the BO5 single-elimination system, with the winner advancing to the playoffs and the losers being eliminated to determine the last three places to advance to the playoffs!
It is worth mentioning that except for the second stage of the "fixed group match", which adopts the global BP mode, the other three stages still follow the previous competitive recruitment mode, including the playoffs, which also follow the previous competitive recruitment mode!
Many netizens have expressed doubts about the results of this system change, because friends who know the KPL event next door may understand that the so-called new competition system officially launched by the LPL league is equivalent to completely copying and imitating the KPL competition system! Is it true that "questioning the KPL, understanding the KPL, and becoming the KPL" is it true that there will be no "unsuitable" phenomenon if you blindly imitate others without considering the actual situation of the game?
Moreover, compared with the previous competition system, each team definitely does not have as thorough understanding of the opponent as before! Because of the previous competition system, all teams have to play each other once, and there will be more opportunities to learn from each other; Under the new format, some teams may not meet each other until the end of the series, which undoubtedly reduces the opportunities for opponents to learn from each other, and it is even entirely possible for strong teams to "roll over" when facing completely unfamiliar opponents in the playoffs...
