As an e-sports player, if you don’t know about B God (BurNing), you can basically GG. If Faker is a superstar in the LOL world, then God B can be said to be the walking god in the DOTA (and DOTA2) world. The superstar spent his most glorious time in DK. The DK, who won 9 consecutive championships and made three and four-chasing DK have always been the topic of conversation and beliefs for fans. How could such a legendary team be disbanded?
Let’s first look at what the official disbandment statement says:
Many people will compare China’s e-sports industry with South Korea. First, let’s see who is doing those clubs in South Korea. That’s right, it’s all done by large domestic companies. SKT T1, KT, SAMSUNG, CJ, Jinair, etc. Alliance: The president of the Korean E-sports Association KeSPA is a member of Congress. What will they provide to the club? Take LCK for example. When the club enters the top league, South Korea's Riot Company will provide a large amount of funds for the club every year. KeSPA will help the club contact the live broadcast platform to sign the contract, and the annual signing fee is also quite objective. Whether from the club or the league, a complete system is something we cannot do in our country. This is the general environment, we cannot change it. However, this is also one of the problems.
The current environment of the e-sports circle feels more and more deformed. Various poaching from various platforms to clubs has gradually become vicious competition. To put it bluntly, you don’t want to continue without taking out more money. As for the value generated, it doesn’t matter. All you need is to have a breath, which is to compare who is richer? It is reasonable. Excessively raising prices has made the industry more and more exaggerated. It really makes us feel sad. With the emergence of various domestic platforms, the value of players has soared. It rose to an incredible increase. I once thought it was because the RMB had depreciated. In 2015, we are ready to plan and budget to continue to make a difference in DOTA2. I contacted some front-line players and my salary and benefits were initially negotiated. But in the end it was left unresolved for various reasons.
summary:
1. China's e-sports industry chain is not healthy from top to bottom. The investors of domestic e-sports clubs are mostly unstable. According to online rumor, the investor behind DK is the boss of a coal mine in Yunnan, and VG, IG, and LGD are all well-known wealthy second-generation investors. Chinese e-sports clubs are also nicknamed "the toys of the rich second-generation" by the outside world. While the rich second-generations raise their salaries, they also make them more impetuous and self-centered, which is more obvious in LOL. Some time ago, there was a rumor that the transfer fee of ADC Mad Puppy had been auctioned for RMB 50 million, and the inflated price made the players unable to find it. All kinds of expansion and arrogance are destroyed by the occupation.
2. The alliance's low presence . ACE (China E-sports Club Alliance) was founded to follow the Korean e-sports association KeSPA, but the president of the Korean association is a member of parliament and has strict and subdivided management of all e-sports projects (DOTA series, LOL series, interstellar series, etc.); ACE prefers LOL in management and is not perfect in management. Although there are explicit regulations on curbing clubs' poaching each other, the segmentation constraints on players and clubs are not authoritative enough. For example, on the NESO a while ago, the "middle-lane mahjong" between IG and LGD. On the one hand, the players have poor professional qualities, while on the other hand, the ACE management is not in place.
3. Evil behaviors in live broadcast platforms. The major domestic live broadcast platforms are poaching people. The bubbles of various anchors require high prices. In fact, can you make money by buying anchors? It is not profitable at all! It is said that Douyu B's $20 million financing has been spent, and the signing fee is tens of millions, and the money has flowed into the pockets of famous anchors. What about the platform's profit model? There is still no good way to explore. Once capital cannot see the future of profitability, the building of the live broadcast platform will collapse instantly.
DK Club can be said to be a "wealthy family" in the DOTA circle. It has many celebrity players, and there are probably few that can be compared with the trophy and praise he received. Even such a veteran team has been disbanded for the above reasons. It is conceivable how deformed and short-lived the Chinese e-sports model should be. In this model of
, it is a matter of time before the club goes bankrupt and the live broadcast platform cannot hold on. After crazy growth, it will enter the market economy model and develop with market demand rather than personal will. In the long run, only after experiencing the dissolution and bankruptcy of several DKs and live broadcast platforms can this industry be truly transformed and create a Chinese-style and healthy e-sports ecosystem chain. However, DK fans are optimistic that ehome can be reorganized, why can't DK? After all, "See you again".
