previously broke the news on the e-sports teams selected for the Asian Games at . Earlier today on the OCA official website, the Asian Olympic Council officially announced that e-sports will be an official event at the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou. Will debut on !
League of Legends, DOTA2, Glory of Kings, FIFA, Hearthstone, Dream Three Kingdoms 2, Peace Elite and Street Fighter V, eight games will be selected as official projects. In addition, Robot Masters and VR Sport will be selected as exhibition events.
It is the first time that e-sports has become an official event of the Asian Games. At the Asian Games in Jakarta in 2018, the Chinese team won two golds and one silver. The League of Legends event was the most popular e-sports event in the Asian Games at that time. The Chinese team led by Uzi also defeated Faker head-on to lead the Korean team.
After three years of LPL, Uzi, MLXG, Letme have been retired, and only xiye, Ming and Meiko3span are left. The starting lineup of Kiin, Peanut, Faker, Ruler, and CoreJJ at LCK, and there are not many people who can maintain the competitive state.
has always been about the gold content of this game,There are different opinions on the Internet. Supporters think that the Asian Games gold is an international championship, while opponents think it is just an exhibition game. But from another angle, looking at the problem from the standpoint of the South Korean team, they definitely wanted to go all out to win the game.
because this not only represents the honor of the national team, they can also rely on this gold medal to exempt them from military service.
According to foreign media reporter FionnOnFire, this Asian Games will still follow the original setting. The original text reads as follows: "League of Legends has been confirmed to join the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, China as an official event. If South Korea Teams in the division can win the gold medal, then they will be exempted from military service; the other seven games will be the same."
This policy attracted many Korean players and made them more willing to play. Faker, who has survived another cycle, is likely to fight for another year. After all, the Asian Games champion can not only be exempt from military service, but also means a real Grand Slam. He will try it out of the emotions and reason.
As for DK's top order khan in the live broadcast in July, he revealed to the water friends that this season is his last year and he will have to serve next year. It's just that he didn't say anything to death: "If you really say it, you can continue to play in the Spring Split."
Although LPL audiences often ridicule Khan, "the champion is always one step ahead of him", but it seems that it best represents the LCK division. He is the only one on the list. The Asian Games are usually held in May. In theory, Khan still has time. If he can continue to maintain his competitive form, there is still a high probability that he will be the first top laner for the South Korean team at the Asian Games next year.
Eight games, including League of Legends, are of great significance to be selected for the Asian Games as an official event for the first time. The domestic audience also began to think of the national team lineup next year, and expect them to prove once again that the five Chinese can also win the game. This time they are winning glory for the country, and there is a reason to win.
South Korean players are seeking exemption from military service, while Chinese players are trying to send them to the army.
It is worth mentioning that exemption from military service is also very attractive to Korean aids in China. After the end of this season, whether strong players like Nuguri will choose to return to LCK will have to be a question mark. NS.
So, do you think the Chinese team can win the Asian Games next year?
