Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World Game Exchange.
Shortly after the official start of the LPL, the first phase of the LCK competition has also started, and the difference with the LPL is that there are many high-energy games on the LCK's side, and the previous world champion T1 was defeated by DK in the first game.
And yesterday, GEN and HLE also met in the top two, and in the end, GEN easily swept HLE to win the game.
GEN ushered in a huge crisis in the transfer period last year, but in the end, with the efforts of GEN's management, they successfully retained the core members, and reintroduced their former soul player Ruler from the LPL region, and the auxiliary player was replaced by a newcomer Duro, the biggest suspense of this lineup is on the lower road.
Ruler's state in the LPL region has declined to a certain extent, and if he returns to GEN and is not in good shape, and then partners with a newcomer to assist, GEN may not be able to continue to dominate the league.
Their opponent, HLE, introduced the Zeus from T1 and looks a little more impactful.
What I didn't expect was that GEN completed the speedrun against HLE, with a total duration of 50 minutes in the two games, and the quick battle easily defeated the opponent, Ruler was even more full of firepower, killing 14 heads in the two games, and the second game was a direct single kill of Viper, and the Viper cannon tried to jump face to fight and was killed by Ruler's detailed operation.
There was a problem in the middle of the HLE side, Peanut and Zeka lost the game in the first game in a row, and the second game was reduced to Ruler Jinx Shuang, Ruler directly killed Shuang angrily and slashed three kills after five kills but the difference was too much to achieve, Ruler's wonderful performance, I have to say that it was the biggest loss in the LPL transfer period last year.
In the second game, it can be said that Ruler can be easily harvested as soon as the team battle arrives, even if Ruler is caught taking the opportunity to kill first, teammates can win the team battle, which makes people call the league's GEN really back, so the question is, why did LPL lose Ruler, and how did JDG get worse?
Judging from all kinds of clues and what happened, I personally think that Ruler is not comfortable in JDG, and last spring in the playoffs Ruler broke out with Kanavi before the conflict, the two players' game concepts diverged, and the team should have experienced some quarrels, which caused the players to become more stressed, and Missing cried directly after winning a game.
Although the atmosphere has improved since the start of the summer tournament, there are still problems, Ruler's personal competitive form is not so good, and Yagao's performance is too bad to prevent JDG from entering the World Championship.
JDG is looking for changes as they enter the transfer period, while GEN is looking for ways to keep the squad competitive.
A key point here is the value of Ruler and Peyz, Ruler definitely wants to return to GEN, so it is more likely that GEN will sign Ruler, and Ruler's salary may not be that high.
In this case, no matter whether JDG wants Ruler or Peyz more, Ruler is more likely to go, and in horizontal comparison, GEN's configuration is greater than JDG's, and I personally think Peyz is more likely to be a player with low value, JDG likes Peyz young to see if he can play.
After Ruler's return, it can only be said that the LPL has one more tricky opponent, but since Ruler has only played one game so far, it is not easy to judge whether he can maintain a good enough form throughout the year, and the follow-up will have to look at the clash between LCK strong teams, and the one who has the last laugh can become the winner.
At present, the top four teams of the LCK last year have all appeared and played against each other, of which T1 lost to DK, and GEN swept HLE successfully, T1's champion five all lost, and the battle of public opinion about Zeus and T1 continues, Zeus was beaten 0-7 and has become a point used by T1 fans to attack him.
The sudden outbreak of DK will lead to a higher competition in the top four of the LCK, and you can look forward to seeing the clash of these four teams in the future, as well as whether there will be dark horses in the following teams, in terms of league volume, LCK is indeed greater than LPL in the number of top strong teams.
