When the news came back to mainland China, the entire Internet immediately began to boil. It was like a huge stone being thrown into the water, causing waves, which turned into huge waves after major clubs and officials stepped down one after another.
[League of Legends Official Event Weibo] #LOL中国TeamCome on# We have witnessed them return to the top of their profession from the bottom, and now, we will witness them competing to unleash the power of China in the Asian Games.
In August in Jakarta-Palembang, players from the Chinese League of Legends team will wear jerseys and continue to write glory for Chinese e-sports. Witness the glory and dreams, their stories, and your first e-sports experience!
@[Tencent Esports] invites you to the ##电竞亚洲游戏# topic page @JX Abu, @mlxgzzzz, @WExiye, @UziQAQ, @rngming, @Asuna, @meiko.
The official event Weibo launched the first shot of media carnival, and the selected clubs began to follow suit. The clubs standing behind the starting players of the Asian Games this time can be said to be all wealthy.
Whether it is WE, EDG, RNG of the old Royal Family, or IG, the new giant, they are all top clubs where LPL fans gather. The effect of jointly posting on Weibo is no less than dropping an atomic bomb in the e-sports circle.
The news about China's League of Legends entering Asia suddenly became very popular on Weibo. Central media, national sports media, and sports media of all sizes began to repost it, spreading the popularity from within the circle to outside the circle.
The Asian Games has already been warmed up for a long time, and the public has become accustomed to paying attention to the news about the Asian Games during this period. The news of e-sports entering Asia has naturally entered the public eye at this time.
After once again refreshing the three views of those who hold prejudices against e-sports, the popularity of the expansion this time is far more lasting and effective than the last S-game victory, and there is no trend of cooling down.
As soon as the ban on the news was lifted, Yu Hui received the above prompt. After the training, he forwarded the official Weibo news on his Weibo, taking the lead in confirming his identity:
"Hello everyone, I am a national athlete, Yu Hui~"
There are also several photos below, including a photo of an individual athlete wearing a team uniform, a photo of a delegation wearing a uniform, and a small ID photo.
Yu Hui's appearance is highlighted in the photos of the delegation's dress. The style of the dress for this Asian Games has changed from the previous tomato scrambled eggs, using a blue and white theme color, named Blue Dream.
The female athlete wears a peacock blue suit jacket and a white shirt. The red flag symbolizing the motherland, the national emblem, the Forbidden City and other elements are all on the chest. The lower body is a cloud white short skirt.
Compared with the previous combination of red and yellow, changing the main color to blue this time can be said to be very bold. With the blessing of Yu Hui, who was at the peak of his appearance, it generally looks good to the outside world.
The highlight is the small certificate, on which the name of the country, national emblem - athlete certificate - State Sports General Administration are written in golden fonts. The inner page contains basic information about Yu Hui.
Name: Yu Hui
Gender: Female
Project: E-sports
score:
Competition name: 2018 Jakarta Asian Games e-sports League of Legends project
Certification number:.
A few pictures in one sentence, and the amount of information contained in it made Yu Hui's fans take off on the spot. Xiye and several others also updated Weibo after Yu Hui, with exactly the same opening remarks.
"Hello everyone, I am a national athlete. Jane is proud"
"Hello everyone, I am a national athlete, Tianye."
One message after another, one red notebook after another, everyone went crazy, especially the clubs and e-sports players who were not selected, and they burst into tears.
With this certificate, which can be said to be a carp leaping over the dragon's gate, even the stubborn conservatives will not be able to say anything wrong, and the words of losing one's ambition by playing with things will completely disappear.
Players such as Yu Hui, Su Hanwei, Jian Aoyao, etc., whose real names had no sense of existence, also appeared on Weibo hot searches. This night is destined to bring the entire e-sports circle into a carnival, and will also be recorded in the history of Chinese e-sports.
Not only the domestic, but also the e-sports circles in other regions have fallen into a carnival, especially South Korea's LCK and Chinese Taipei.
One is focusing on e-sports as the focus of support, and the other is that the competition region is on the verge of disintegration. They both urgently need a world-wide honor to bring their competition region to a higher level.
The carnival outside did not affect Yu Hui and others who were under closed management. They got excited when they posted on Weibo, but this was just the excitement of wanting to show off with others.
They have been playing with certificates and other things for several days, and the more powerful ones might even be able to show off their skills.
In addition to several countries that are well-known for e-sports, other Asian Games member countries have also formed a team to participate in e-sports, but the strength can only be said to be uneven.
Even the Japanese team, which has no sense of existence, can kill everyone in this fish pond, and the South Korean team, which is most valued by the LPL, has also released its own player lineup.
Top laner: Kiin, jungler: Peanut, substitute: Score, mid laner: Faker, AD: Ruler, assist: CoreJJ, coach: Edgar. A lineup that is familiar yet unfamiliar to LPL.
The familiar ones are of course Little Peanut, Faker and other veteran players who impressed the LPL, and the unfamiliar ones are top laner Kiin. The LCK is rich in various powerful top laners, which is recognized by all competition regions.
But this AFS youngster's inclusion in the South Korean team's starting lineup was beyond everyone's expectations. Could it be that he felt that the other top laners in his division had been beaten one by one by Asuna and lost confidence.
So she was replaced by a newborn calf who had never fought against her to catch her by surprise? After all, they haven't played against each other before, so the LPL's playing style is completely blank, and there is no way to deal with it.
At this time, there are different opinions and constant news. The date for the start of the qualifiers came quietly, but while everyone was eager to see it, there was no live broadcast of the qualifiers at all.
Everyone knew that the Asian Games had started, and after waiting for a long time, no news came out. There was not even a graphic live broadcast with photos, which made the LPL audience very anxious.
"I beg you for a live broadcast address where you can watch the Asian Games trials! The ball is so big! Good people have a safe life!!!"
"Is there a fight or not? Is there a big boss at the scene who is broadcasting live on his mobile phone!! What a fool!"
"The YS Video APP was updated and renamed YS Video-LPL Asian Games Live. I searched for it for a long time and couldn't find the live broadcast! Geneva! Lose money!"
"There is nothing we can do about it. There is no live broadcast of the qualifiers. Where can we find resources for you? Foreign audiences are also anxious."
"Didn't Yu Shuang go to the scene? Why didn't you start a live broadcast?"
Yu Shuang also asked this question before the game started. Yu Hui didn't say much to the other party. He could only give a general reminder that if he wanted to live broadcast, he must first obtain authorization from the Asian Organizing Committee.
Even domestic central media cannot get rid of this permission requirement, and must follow procedures, let alone individuals.
At that time, Yu Hui didn't feel the need to live broadcast, for no other reason than playing was too boring.
Even though there are dozens of participating countries in the Asian Games, there are really only a few countries that have established an e-sports system. Some small countries simply can't even get five gold medal players.
Their current goal in the qualifiers has been to try not to make the opponent look too ugly. They will only need to be more careful when they encounter teams from South Korea and Chinese Taipei in the future.
I originally wanted to take leave, but a sudden feeling of guilt surrounded me ~
