Friends who know about the transfer period know that this year's LPL has more than 30 potential players with contracts expired. Logically speaking, the S13 teams should be ready to form multiple Galaxy battleships. However, recently many veteran teams such as RNG and OMG have announced their listing and are interested in withdrawing LPL. What does such a signal mean for LPL and what are the reasons that LPL has gradually begun to decline? Signals like
undoubtedly mean that LPL has no longer had the glory of the previous few years. Although capital will still enter the market later, investment in the team should be greatly reduced. The reason for this situation is that the team's revenue channels have been greatly reduced in recent years, and even multiple teams have not made up for the money.
Impact of the epidemic:
First of all, the epidemic caused the offline game to be unable to be carried out. In the early years, many teams launched the home and away system, which was a very stable income for the team. However, with the epidemic qualifying, the home and away system has been basically cancelled, and the income method of buying tickets by the audience cannot be restored in a short period of time.
League attention declines:
The second problem is that the league attention has declined, which has little to do with the operation of LPL. It is mainly because the gameplay of LOL has not changed much in recent years, so if you watch too many professional leagues, you will feel aesthetic fatigue. In addition, the number of LOL players has also shown a trend of decreasing. These are the reasons why many capitals are unwilling to invest too much energy in LPL.
Investment is difficult to recover:
This year, like TES and RNG teams, they have invested a lot of money in team formation, but even if MSI wins the championship, RNG invests in the economy is difficult to recover. The team's reputation has plummeted, and even after a year of tossing, the team that draws cards every year is not as profitable as players who sell players. This pattern also made the team boss disheartened and eventually withdrawn.
has an unequal value:
and sometimes those teams that spend a lot of money may buy some "parallel goods". For example, this year's BLG team was recognized as the Galaxy warship before the game, but the actual chemistry of the entire team was extremely bad, and after many adjustments, it was still not ideal. It's not that the strength of these five players is a big problem, but they are not strong when combined together, but the money spent by BLG is one of the best in the entire LPL, and the boss is definitely losing a lot.
LDL fake matches:
Anyone with discerning eyes knows how rampant LDL fake matches are. Many players will even be removed from the starting lineup by the club because they are unwilling to play fake matches. I think everyone should also understand that the club must have income for the fake matches of LDL, and there are many, so the recent severe sanctions for fake matches have also made many teams lack a link in their income.
Summary: Most teams before can get a considerable profit from it, and the entire market environment is positive. But now LPL has fewer channels to make money, and the returns of each club have been lower, so the entire market has also begun to gradually decline.
