Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World Game Exchange.
The semi-finals of the S14 World Championship will officially start tomorrow, and the four teams of LPL and LCK will compete for two spots in the finals, while the eliminated teams can prepare for next year's season in advance.
In this process, TES became the focus of heated discussions among the audience, and 369 was attacked by a large number of people.
The 369 player was criticized by many parties for his abnormal performance in the match against T1, and his personal perspective was also deeply reviewed, and the audience was amazed at how a professional player played such an outrageous performance, and SKT's former champion assistant also gave his own evaluation, feeling that 369's rank may be the drill three level.
And it is precisely because the performance of 369 is too outrageous that the discussion of other players in the team is obviously not high, including the controversial lower lane player JKL in the LPL division.
JKL also contributed to the dark scene in the round against T1, which was the scene of the mid lane rider drifting and escaping, and otherwise JKL didn't seem to make too many outrageous mistakes like 369.
But JKL still participated in one of the humiliating moments in LPL history by T1 clean sheet, in this round of the game TES was swept by T1 at the same time, the second game was also played with a clean sheet score, plus because the TES game content was too ugly, resulting in this game not only being liquidated by the audience in the LPL region, but even foreign commentators and coaches couldn't stand it.
And JKL, who was crushed by Faker, can be called a great tragedy of genius in the LPL e-sports arena with his professional resume.
The biggest shameful moment of this World LPL was when TES was swept by T1, and the confrontation that was originally considered to be evenly matched was directly crushed by the opponent, and several other famous shameful moments in the LPL, JKL also became the protagonist.
The first was the 2019 MSI Mid-Season Championship, where IG was defeated by TL during the semi-finals and missed the final.
This is the first time in the history of the LPL that a team from the North American region has been eliminated, because the pre-game tactical arrangement is not good enough, coupled with the poor attitude of the players, the IG team, which was in full swing at that time, wasted its peak in vain, and could have won another championship on MSI to improve its historical status, but the result was declared a failure.
But because IG won the first championship, even if MSI lost, everyone didn't blame much at the time, but now it looks like this game really shouldn't have been lost.
Then at the S12 World Finals, the TES team was defeated by the Viet Nam team as soon as it came up in the second round of the group stage, which directly led to their home in the round of 16.
The third moment of shame was this year's MSI Mid-Season Championship, TES created the worst result in history after playing, and was directly swept by the European G2 team with a score of 3-0, and did not even enter the semi-finals, creating the worst result of the LPL team in MSI history, and it was also after this game that JKL won the title of "big defeat" in e-sports.
JKL has earned this title because it has been eliminated by teams from the LEC, LCS, and LCK in various tournaments.
It can be said that after JKL won the first championship of the LPL, the rest of his career was a tragedy, accompanied by the tragedy of the TES team, this team has been trying to spend money to get good results since coming to the LPL, it can be said that every year during the transfer period managers are doing their best, they have helped the team to form a good enough configuration, and only won an MSC and a summer championship.
JKL is the absolute core of TES, and I personally think his overall performance this year is quite acceptable, but don't forget that JKL has played outrageously in key tournaments in the past few years, and has repeatedly caused the team to fall into crisis or ultimately fail due to outrageous personal mistakes.
As the first year of his career to win the world championship, the first year compared to the existence of Faker, JKL's career record after that was disappointing, and the reason behind the tragedy of genius is that I personally think that the side effects of the first championship and the mentality and playing style of the player, the first championship covers up a lot of things, after winning the first crown, not everyone can go through the trough like Faker and get back to the top.
After winning the first championship, the mentality relaxed, the professional attitude was problematic, the personal playing style was too rough, the skills were not honed, the mistakes were not changed, and a lot of professional prime was wasted, and now it is very difficult to save.
