Since the first and second Old Man Cup received a large number of heated discussions from the audience, many viewers are looking forward to the third session of the Old Man Cup, but as industry insiders continue to break the news, many viewers know that the third Old Man Cup has many fewer well-known players to participate, you must know that the first session has Uzi and TheShy, the second has Uzi and DOINB, but there are no well-known players in the third Old Man Cup.
Even many popular anchors have given up this year's Old Man Cup, such as Brother Crystal, posture, etc., although this year's Old Man Cup has lost a lot of popular players, but the organizer has found another way to directly open the China-South Korea Confrontation Match, and many viewers have begun to look forward to the coming of the third Old Man Cup, after all, the "China-South Korea Confrontation Match" has always been a period that LPL audiences are looking forward to, and it just so happened that the official of the Old Man Cup recently announced the selection list of the Korean team.
The selection meeting for the Korean division will end on March 29, 2025, and the specific lineup of the teams is as follows:

China-South Korea confrontation: The final will be faced off by the top three teams from China and South Korea, with a total prize pool of 3 million RMB (1.18 million yuan in China, 745,000 yuan in South Korea, and 1 million yuan in the region). After the release of this selection list, many LPL viewers complained that the gap between the strength of the two sides was too big, after all, Korean players are generally high-level players in Hanbok, on the other hand, most of the LPL players are semi-entertainment anchors.
In addition to the heated discussion about the selection of the Old Man's Cup, the former coach of TES Mangai has also revealed a lot of big melons between LPL teams in the live broadcast room recently, for example, Mangai admitted that the TES team had conflicts within the team during the Pioneer Tournament, and the players in the team did not communicate when they played games, 369 once sent a message to himself, after losing to the HLE team, the mentality of all TES members exploded, and they were unwilling to review after the game.
This year's Old Man Cup does have a lot of traffic players, but the China-South Korea competition can indeed attract a lot of heated discussions from the audience, do you think this Old Man Cup will be more popular than previous sessions? Of course, I personally want to know why TES's mentality exploded in the Pioneer Game, but after returning to the LPL League, why did TES have a better mentality?
