Riot held the League of Legends Asia Competition in July, inviting a total of 12 top teams from the top four of LMS, LCK, and LPL to participate. This news was issued by Yahoo Taiwan. The news was quickly deleted. It seemed that it was accidentally exposed in advance.
Everyone has different opinions about this competition. Some netizens said: This competition is good, there should be cross-region competitions long ago; once the Asian competition starts, there is no need to play in other competition regions, right? Asia is among the top four in contracting; this can only be done in Asia, not in the Americas and Europe alone. However, some netizens said: Playing in these three divisions is not an exhibition match. You can know who is first, who is second, and who is third without having to play.
In fact, this is still a bit good for our LPL. We have the S series that will be held soon in MSI. Each major competition area only has two opportunities to play against the LCK. Such an Asian Cup can bring more opportunities to the Chinese LPL, including ours. The opportunity to play against LCK, study their playing style, see my own shortcomings, and narrow the gap between them. Even though WE was so optimistic this year, we were unable to meet SKT in the finals and were eliminated by G2. However, we really should have played SKT before. Now we are not sure whether we will be abandoned by LCK or whether we will have a chance to compete with them. . This time the Asian competition can be used to verify again, the top 4 teams in each division, so that some randomness can be eliminated, and we can easily see how big the difference between LPL and LCK is!
