★ Game Horseshoe Original
How many people have been spoiled by the pride of eight years and one crown?
In the 2018 Global Finals, Ig finally won the S8 championship to help LPL win the first championship in history, and Ig also became the only club in the world to win the two top moba international competitions of ti and s. For a time, IG became the focus of the world's attention. Eight years a crown, this is a championship that many people have survived all their youth and have not had time to wait. This championship hunger was satisfied, making Ig the most popular lol club to date. Even today, after 2 years of continuous decay, Ig's influence in LPL is still enormous. It was also from that year that LPL characterized the labels of "love to fight", "play radical", "big brawl", "fast pace" and so on, and believed that LPL is an expert in this regard and is the best field. And S9's victory again brought LPL's pride value to its peak.
The pompous effect of the two-crown finals
FPX won the global finals in 2019, in fact, in general, the two versions of s8-s9 LPL were able to win the championship, on the one hand, the team was excellent, on the other hand, the version was in line with their positioning, and one of the most important reasons was that South Korea's LCK was at the time of the replacement of the old and the new. The old batch of decommissioning that should be decommissioned, the weakening of the weakening, the lack of competitiveness. And the new batch of teams such as Griffin, DWG and SB is far from mature enough. The weakening of the Korean division also makes The European LEC a competitor of LPL. However, most LPL viewers can not see this relationship, because they are only immersed in the joy of the two-crown finals, "the first division", "the strongest division", "the target triple crown", etc., for a time, LPL has become more and more exaggerated, and at this time you will be excluded by opposing or pouring cold water, and the serious "expulsion" will be.
A slap still can't wake up
At the beginning of 2020, the new generation of LCK finally broke through the cocoon and stepped onto the stage, but LPL, who had been blinded by pomp and glamour, did not realize this. In the finals, showmaker's oath to win the championship was deafening, some people saw reaching the finals as the only chance in life, while others were satisfied by reaching the final four. LPL also recorded a long period of garbage talk sessions before the S10 game, and it is good to have confidence, but it becomes strange to not recognize reality. DK made the Shanghai final home game a library, but this did not change the status quo that the S11 season LPL continued to advocate for the strength of its own division. This is also because RNG beat DK on MSI to win the championship, and to some extent RNG is the fundamental reason why LPL has set off a wave of praise.
In general, a world champion can stir up a wave of national blowing, and I don't know when it has become a habit that cannot be changed. You don't blow you're the alternative, you're the anti-LPL bad guy, you just like the x-miscellaneous of foreign divisions. The deformity of the environment has led to the team of LPL playing in the finals to be exaggerated and gilded every year. However, some toy plastics were beaten back to their original shape in the group stage. We are this happy night lang division.
Lack of capacity? Too bad mindset?
LPL's 4 teams playing in S11 this year are actually not bad, and the foundation is still OK. But some teams are torn apart because of mentality and version reasons, and some teams are dragging down the whole team because individual players are too poor. Either way, the performance of the eliminated teams is obviously very different from the impression in many media before the finals began. The performance of these players and teams may not necessarily be linked to the environment of the competition area, but from S10 to S11, for 2 consecutive years, all kinds of blind confidence, pride and ignorance of superficial conceit before the start of the tournament, coupled with the sluggish performance of the player team, has made the lpl almost become a clown division.
But then again, since we don't have a definitive and effective side-by-side comparison in the cross-major version, we can only infer the strength of global teams based on the last few versions of the civil war data in our own division. This in itself is a kind of paper strength speculation, there is an unexpected upset is inevitable, before the start of the game media people can not determine the strength of a team. This also intensified the criticism and complaints of the audience for the media after the game. Perhaps for a long time to come, LPL will continue to develop in this environment, only this year's championship ending will be different.
