After a night, the hot "Old Man's Cup" contributed a lot of fun and new stalks to the people who eat melons.
Although there are still old-fashioned dramas such as "red temperature", "breaking defense" and "quarreling", which are a little aesthetically tired for the audience, there are also some "good jobs" that make the audience call it wonderful. For example, Uzi's dream linkage with G2 in the late-night training match has become another explosive point of this old man's cup.
Counting the 50 contestants in this Old Man's Cup, Uzi is indeed the one with the biggest benefits. Although it has a very exaggerated popularity as the top stream in the LPL, in fact, Uzi's reputation in the e-sports circle is also polarized, and he has accumulated a large number of black fans in his career and has many controversial events.
Smile, Zhao Zhiming, electric batons, incense pot, Kryst4l and other well-known players have all broken the explosion-proof code in recent training matches, but what is surprising is that Uzi has never broken out because of wins and losses in the training process.
Uzi, who used to play games with a lot of negative energy, showed his responsibility as a captain and his own growth after participating in the competition this time. In the old man's cup, which has become commonplace in the scene of red and warm and quarrels, it is Uzi who is the most emotionally stable and always comforts his teammates.
After seeing Uzi's performance, many people also lamented that the puppy has really matured a lot after starting a family and having children.
In yesterday's old man's cup training session, which many fun people like to see, Uzi did not have a training match because he was released by the Kid team after playing the attitude team, and the halftime session was also a whole job, and the G2 official blog interacted with the training match.
Even the G2 official took the initiative to send an invitation: God, hello, about a training match?
Seeing that G2, who has always liked to work hard, was so active, Uzi was also not stage frightened, and replied directly: "On the number, we are here at any time." ”
And G2 also immediately picked up the play, and posted another Weibo: "No contract, everything is easy to say!" There was even a makeup photo of Uzi wearing a G2 team uniform: Uzi is looking forward to your joining! The jersey is ready for you.
Because of the live broadcast at that time, coupled with the popularity of the two major competitions of MSI and the Old Man's Cup, the keyword "Uzi G2" soon rushed to the hot search on Weibo, which shows how exaggerated the popularity of the top LPL is.
However, in addition to Uzi, the person who appeared on the most hot searches in the e-sports circle some time ago was actually Miss who had disappeared from the public eye for a long time. After being exposed to participate in the phenomenal variety show "Riding the Wind 2024" a few months ago, Miss-related topics have repeatedly appeared on Weibo, various social media, and short video platforms.
After the show officially launched, the topic around Miss's performance in Sister Lang and her interaction with other sisters was also full. Taking the opportunity of participating in variety shows across the border, Miss who mustered up the courage to step out of her comfort zone became a frequent visitor to hot searches, and appeared in front of the mainstream public with a positive image, which reversed the stereotype of the outside world about the e-sports circle to a certain extent.

After participating in Sister Lang, she returned to the public eye, and whether Miss will resume live broadcast or enter the entertainment industry in the future is also a question that the audience is very curious about, no matter what, I look forward to seeing Miss appear more in front of the audience and fans in the future.
And in today's 2024 Chengdu MSI game, Brother Tao Bo also did a big job for the LPL audience - lost to G2 3-0 and was eliminated. Even if some people thought before the game that G2 did not have a chance to win today's game, I believe that no one could have predicted that this would be a 3-0 defeat.
In the first game of the series between the two sides, G2 came up with a long-hidden ultimate: Aion Jungler.
Although TES has come up with a strong lineup that is very in line with the mainstream of the version, it is obvious that they have not encountered the G2 Emerald God plus small cannon system for a long time, so they have suffered a lot in dealing with it. The combination of skateboarding shoes and female tans on the lower lane was even more impressive, and the 2v2 line kill was played without the participation of the jungler during the lane period, and the balance of victory was completely tilted in favor of G2 since then.
In the next two games, G2 came up with a three-shooter system with a big mouth with a small cannon and cards, and in the third game, he took out the Emerald God small cannon again. The stunned TES has obviously lost his calm and sanity on the field, and the BP of the manhole cover coach is also frequent.
In the end, the BO5 of the lower bracket, the veteran giants G2 from the LEC, completed the feat of 3-0 clean sheet TES. And TES, who was fighting at home, was eliminated in such an embarrassing way, which also made many netizens call it outrageous.
In the upper bracket finals, they will face the LCK No. 1 seed GEN, and they will be expected to defend their home stadium and the glory of the LPL.
