Chapter 656 Reflection, I reflect

After observing the public opinion for a few days, Riot's publicity staff wanted to send a banner to Brother Mai. After all, in the eyes of publicity staff, there is no difference between bad traffic and good traffic.

As long as it gets attention.

That's enough.

In addition, due to the dominance of the KDA girl group, this year's theme song was not as sensational as last year's.

This can be seen from the number of views on the platform. Last year, the number of views exceeded 3 million in 500 days, while this year, the theme song of "Rise" barely exceeded 300 million during the same period. In addition, the comments section is saying that the theme of the MV is unclear, the chorus is too intense, and the headphone experience is not good.

Some people on Twitter were making a fuss and mocking people for not putting enough effort into the project. Suddenly, a comment by Ma Ge, which said it was normal that Ucal didn't make it into the top 20, became a hot trend on Twitter. How could Riot not be heartwarmed?

to be frank.

Everyone knows whether it is used with care or not.

It's just that the music company's brand is too big and it has too much baggage, and it's not something that can satisfy everyone simply by granting more production fees.

“…KT is complaining again, hoping that we can warn Cvmax not to affect the players’ mentality.” Someone walked into the office and asked with a smile, “Do you want to respond?”

"of course not."

The executive leaned back in his boss chair and said casually, "They can just talk to each other remotely without having to go through us."

This person joked: "Korean websites say SKT didn't make it, and it's definitely the worst class. Even domestic public opinion is not friendly to KT. How can they stand up straight?"

Mentioning SKT.

The executive frowned slightly: "In the past three years, the number of online users has been supported by the gimmick of the China-Korea War.

It's called a big battle, but in fact it's just a match between Faker and Penicillin. As long as the two of them fight, the ratings are guaranteed. This year Faker didn't come, and I don't know if (the ratings) will drop."

Speaking of which, when the qualifiers ended, Riot's top management was worried.

Although the market share in Brazil and Europe is increasing, the investment share in Southeast Asia, Oceania, and Taiwan is declining. From this perspective, the global market share has actually shrunk a bit.

Then the problem is coming.

In this case, if we want to maintain negative growth, the financial statements cannot be too ugly, because clubs are very realistic and everyone needs confidence.

If League of Legends shows signs of losing popularity, these veteran clubs will only withdraw funds and cut budgets, triggering a vicious cycle.

“Who else can be the protagonist?”

"Caps?"

“We gave it some exposure, but the results were not satisfactory.”

The subordinate explained: "Europe has not achieved any results for a long time. It lacks a booster. Even if we praise it, no one will believe it."

"The North American market is also shrinking..." The executive rubbed his brows and said, "By the way, whose idea was it to put Doublelift at No. 19?"

“In fact, I originally planned to rank Doublelift 20th and Ucal 18th, because they won the summer championship at such a young age and had a promising future, but the public opinion was too bad…”

The subordinate laughed and said, "It was revealed that on the day the list was finalized, several editors in charge of the e-sports version tracked three questions on Twitter in real time, and then someone said: Ucal's performance is not convincing enough, and he will be ridiculed if he is included."

The subordinate shrugged: "Fortunately, it was not listed, otherwise someone would definitely say that ESPN received money from KT - the recommendation of Doublelift was even said to be a favor list."

"but…"

"It is precisely because Doublelift has never made it out of the line that it is so interesting to watch. Many viewers want to know whether TL can break the curse and succeed in breaking through."

"and…"

The subordinate had a strange expression: "Just now, Doublelift made a video to respond to the controversy, saying that the Chinese and Korean ADs should be ahead of him——

He knew what was best for him, but the audience accused ESPN of deliberately kidnapping him.

Later, regarding S7’s performance, he also said that he would definitely be able to flash this year (S7’s senior brother had multiple nicknames after playing: Doubleflash).”

The image of the dog blowing adds points again.

The person involved himself admitted that he ranked high, so netizens naturally won't pursue him.

"pity…"

The executive sighed: "Doublelift is just too weak in foreign wars. If he had performed better, I could give him more." Riot really wants to promote a local superstar, but e-sports results speak for themselves.

~~~
Twitter.

The fun surrounding the 20-man roster continues to heat up.

Since Cvmax mentioned Perkz, the G2 club went crazy to express their surprise.

“…I’ve already said it before, I believe in Maimon!”

After a double entendre.

G2 released a video in which Perkz was wearing a team uniform with a bucket of McDonald's next to him. He then suddenly waved his arms and said to the camera: "Man, this... this... this is crazy."

Ah P's acting is very good.

The performance had the flavor of slurred speech due to excitement.

"How could I be recognized by a champion coach?"

"Woohoo, our G2 is saved!"

The G2 boss entered the frame from the left, hugged Ah P fiercely, and shouted three times, "We G2 are saved," and then set a flag: "We will create new history!! It is impossible to be eliminated in the group stage!!"

I cried after playing S7.

G2 is at its most humane moment and has a very good external image.

after all.

Who would hate a team that knows how to and dares to do something fun?

Comment area.

"OMG!"

"If I don't fight professionally, I should be able to be an actor."

"Is there really any hope? We couldn't even get a wild card last year."

"The recognition of the champion coach? You mean Cvmax? The question is, Cvmax didn't say G2 is strong, or did I miss it?"

"nerve."

“It should be the sentence that Perkz didn’t make the list, so Ucal didn’t make the list. The subtext is that the level shown by Ucal is not as good as Perkz.”

“Is this considered recognition?”

"It doesn't count."

“I think: OK.”

G2's crazy performance pushed the topic to its peak.

In the evening.

Some UP hosts took advantage of the popularity and published ranking lists, most of which excluded Ucal. Seeing the storm coming, Yuan released a preview and used data tables to support his analysis.

Since the previous video went viral, this one had over 3000 online views right after it was released.

in this video.

Yuan used team-oriented data such as map awareness, last hits in the first 10 minutes, final last hits, hero pool, mentality, positioning and number of first kills, as well as resource control, operation coordination, etc. to profile Ucal.

finally.

Yuan came to the conclusion.

It was the outstanding performance of his teammates that covered up many of Ucal's shortcomings. For example, Ucal did a poor job in making up for his development and relied too much on Smeb in sideline processing. In evenly matched and disadvantaged team situations, he could only count on Deft to stand up.

High emotional intelligence: good attitude towards group travel.

Low emotional intelligence: taking advantage of the situation.

And it’s not just an ordinary situation.

As we all know, advantages and disadvantages are two completely different games. In the advantage part, Ucal only needs to cooperate with his teammates and his sense of camera will not be bad, but once he enters a disadvantageous position, it is difficult for Ucal to share the pressure.

Firstly, he is used to taking the safety line and will not lead it out. Secondly, he relies on the jungler and support first, and his positioning awareness is average. Therefore, KT's comeback was only possible because of Deft's god-level positioning and maximum output.

Coincidentally.

Brother Mai, who was besieged by KT fans, gave a similar answer.

In the latest response, Cvmax praised this as the best year for KT's jungler.

As for Ucal, he is actually not bad, he just needs to improve his awareness, last-hitting, mentality, hero pool, initiative, operation, vision and first kill.

What is murder and heart-breaking.

With this series of nouns listed, what else does Ucal do well?
[It has to be the coach, this little word is made up. 】

[It's true. The most common scene in team battles is always the jungle. ]

[It’s confirmed, Ucal plays the support position, a supporting mid laner. 】

[Even with this, you still want to touch my brother Hao. My brother Hao supports the third line. 】

[Ucal's roaming efficiency is indeed low. He just stands guard and does not have the awareness of taking the initiative to do anything. ]

[I have sharp eyes.] [Strip your underwear, strip your underwear.]

of course.

There are rebuttals as well.

Some rational people think that this is too harsh a slap in the face. If Ucal proves himself, wouldn't he look like a clown?

However, rationalists are ultimately a minority, and these rationalists are not fans of Ucal, but they think that champagne at halftime is unlucky.

[Other teams may have the risk of overturning. But we have the two championships. ]

【Anyone who has watched LCK knows that Ucal only has those three skills, and the rest is a mess. PS: Akali is even more terrible. 】

[Yuan has a very correct point: If Ucal wants to participate in the game, he needs a jungler to protect him. ]

【It is true that the jungler was kidnapped. 】

【Just look at the finals and you will know that Chaowei was targeted by the jungler and the support, but in the end his panel was still better than Ucal’s. 】

[Telling a joke, the output of a two-headed swordswoman at the beginning is only slightly higher than that of her own pressure-resistant crab. ]

[Even if Hao Ge had this kind of advantage, he wouldn't be able to stand under the Super Power Tower. ]

Originally, SKT was not in the summer finals, so the number of views was quite low.

After being executed by Mago.

Many people in the anti-bar went to take notes, and found that what Brother Mai said was still gentle - Viper was just a tool in Griffin at that time, and he played a little bit, but he still played five full games with KT.

KT doesn't dare to wash it. After all, Ucal does not have dominance. His debut performance is not to be compared with Dade and Pawn. Even Crown and BDD, who are known for their stability, have more famous scenes than Ucal.

In a word.

As the mid laner in the summer championship, you couldn't even put together a 3-minute highlight reel. All of them were scenes of cooperative control and entering the field to absorb damage. Where were your shots of hooking eight to harvest the damage?
BDD Tsar pushed back the double Cs in the Baron pit to secure victory.

Crown Victor missed his blue mana and continuously moved around to kill Faker's Clockwork. Where was your Ucal's first kill? How did you manage to have few single kills, a good KDA, and only 22% of the output, ranking 12th among all mid laners in the summer season.

Kuro, which has been criticized, accounts for 26% of the team.

P Gui, who was scolded by fans to the point of mental breakdown, had an average output of 424 points, accounting for 24.6%.

Players are most afraid of compilations.

Because it subverts the impression.

After all, performance can be deceiving. In some games, everyone goes to arrest the most eye-catching one, and no one blames him if he goes invisible. However, this kind of statistical table does not look at the performance of a certain game.

In this way, the win rate, hero usage and output ratio chart compiled by Qing fans was forwarded to the Korean website by someone with ulterior motives. For a time, the Korean website was completely silent, with only some commentators expressing their opinions.

Senior veteran commentator Jin Dongjun said: "…the doubts about Ucal are more criticisms of the lack of talent in the team.

If someone had asked me three years ago that the mid laner in the Summer Championship would not be in the top 20, I would have thought that person was joking. But the reality is that KT has not fought any tough battles along the way, and often does not need the mid laner to perform well.

What was the mid lane ecology a few years ago? It was Faker playing against PawN, it was Faker playing against the peak Crown.

Now?

It's Ucal versus Chovy.

Chovy was sacrificed for the sake of the lineup. He didn’t get support in the middle lane and had to be careful of ganks every time he traded blood.

Roaring Emperor Jeon Yong-jun gives another perspective.

"The summer finals lasted five games, so it should be very exciting. This is based on the experience of the past summer finals. But this year... the audience generally thought the quality was average, which is why the summer finals had less viewership than the qualifiers."

The former head of the e-sports association issued an angry statement: "If there is no reform, the competition area will die. Don't think I am exaggerating.

Look at the next door, the players' salaries have increased significantly, and they are also planning a fame stage like the Youth Training Conference to give newcomers exposure and motivate them to strive.

But in our case, our outstanding talents are not valued and can only go to the second-tier leagues in other regions to gain experience.

In addition, two members of the KT team have played in the LPL. Doesn't it say something about the situation that such a team won the championship? Since when did the LCK's tactical concept become backward! I don't understand! "

There are many things I don’t understand.

LCK audiences are all very confused.

How could it have changed like this in just 2 years? It was clearly just a matter of one move in S6. If they had targeted the bottom lane earlier, they would have had a chance to win consecutive championships. But 2 years later, the three LPL heroes who were laughed at back then have become the treasures of LCK.

The words of the former leader accurately penetrate into certain fragile and sensitive hearts.

Arrived the next day.

FOMOS saw the direction of the wind and invited well-known e-sports figures such as Wolf and Nofe to participate in a blog, asking them to talk about the pain of the competition area.

The guests were very interesting.

Wolf doesn’t mention it, but live streaming has already been done, the well-known Wolf Warrior, Iron-blooded Snicker;

Nofe, the coach who led Rox to the championship, went to LPL for three seasons. He was criticized as a fool every year. He was also the spokesperson for three-times Taliyah and three-times Lucian, and the representative of stubborn BP. He is currently unemployed at home and urgently needs a job.

Then there are senior commentators like Roaring Emperor and beautiful hosts like Lee Hyun-kyung to add to the highlights.

Opening.

Several people introduced themselves with a smile, and then talked about the public opinion online. Wolf also said that since he knew that Cvmax was a rich second-generation, it became difficult for him to look directly at him. The Roaring Emperor even joked that this was the power of money.

Next, let’s get to the point.

Talking about the S8 Summer Finals, the crisis of trust encountered by KT, and thoughts on the league.

Wolf believes that the treatment is the most important issue. From his perspective, players only have a few years at their peak and they all have a sense of urgency when they can’t perform anymore, so they are easily moved by the treatment.

Regarding the conclusion, he said that he had achieved some results, but in terms of salary, he did not earn as much as the main support players in the LPL playoffs. He lamented that he had not encountered good days too early in his career.

In this passage.

He also expressed his envy of Kiin. At that time, 3 billion won for three years was definitely the highest salary for the same position, but Kiin had never won any honors. The Intercontinental Championships and the Asian Games were just background pieces.

Everyone could tell that Wolf was a little sour.

of course.

Wolf is just like this, he really feels underestimated.

Nofe held the microphone and said, "I've read all the recent news. To be honest, there's nothing to be angry about. After all, we didn't win any foreign wars last year.

Before any major changes, I was quite pessimistic about this World Championship, and I had a feeling that KT would be in trouble. Why? Because Griffin couldn't squeeze out a ban position to reduce the mid lane hero pool.

But when it comes to the World Championship, some coaches go to extremes. In order to test ideas, you might see a game with 5 bans on the mid laner.

And Ucal…

He's not a hero enough.

Do you understand what I mean? Among the three major mid laners in this version, he only has proficiency with Irelia, and it is limited to laning. In teamfights, he often only uses R to the front row and rarely blocks the opponent's core position. "

Li Xianjing sat on the edge of the sofa and said sadly: "As a host, I have heard some first-line audiences speak out. They often complain that the resource group is too ugly."

Mention Shakespeare.

Everyone present choked.

It was Wolf who came to the rescue, not wanting the beauty to feel embarrassed: "The reason for the low kills and slow pace is not a problem with the operation, but the mentality. After losing too much, people will become numb and are especially afraid of making mistakes."

Nofe nodded: "Among them, KT is the best. I saw from the microphone that no matter what the situation is, Deft is always twisting the rope..."

Later.

It's just to praise Deft's greatness, and many people in the circle are willing to partner with him.

And the blog content is released.

Many people agreed.

Again, there must be a reason for the lack of successors. Is it a problem with the selection process, or is there some other reason?

In the midst of chaos.

Cvmax, who caused this uproar, is no longer in the spotlight.

He was busy organizing information, holding meetings, and looking for version codes and lineup win rates.

“…Now it seems that the crab is the trap.”

At the daily meeting, Kouma said: "When being focused, as long as someone eats the crab's ultimate, this hero will be very stupid. It is difficult for it to advance and retreat with the same formation."

As he understood the lineup better, Kouma decided to lower the priority of Crab.

"That's it, the group draw will be held in a few days. Once the opponents are determined, we can discuss banning them."

meeting dismiss.

C-Bo came up and said, "I think LCK has lost its confidence."

"how?"

"I read the reposted comments and found that the taste next door is not right." C blogger shouted: "In the past, the champagne faction must have the most, but this year, the reflection faction has taken the high ground."

Qin Hao:......
