Champion skins are selling like hotcakes here in China. The top-selling Syndra skin sold nearly one million sets on the first day.
The popularity of Summer in China and internationally is evenly divided, and Abu knew from the grapevine that American, European, Japanese and Korean servers were selling extremely well.
However, edg's first LPL World Championship championship will always make some people unhappy.
Among them, the Korean audience who was beaten three times by edg in the S6 World Championship broke their desire to win four consecutive championships in the World Championship. Even though the Sakura Girl champion skin sold very well there, their mouths were still hard.
At least the mainstream in various Korean forums mainly disparages lpl and edg.
The 17-year-old forum translator mainly gathers in the Tieba. When Mei Xia brags about herself in the forum, she can see many translated posts.
[EDG didn’t win the championship with Sakura Girls and Korean aid]
[DEFT also plays a role in the champion skin. LPL viewers don’t really think that they win the championship by relying on their own division!]
[This year deft and pawn will return to lck, and the lpl division will be finished]
[If any team can poach Mika, even the strongest edg in lpl will probably fall to the point where they can't even beat the last place in lck! 】
[You said that it is better for Faker to go to MSI to complete his revenge, and kt's three-star twin PAW in MSI to prove that both Korean players are in C in the World Championships. Which script is better? 】
In short, they are just bragging about mika and belittling lpl.
And even in the anti-ba lpl audience, there are many people who are persuaded by this kind of rhetoric.
Of course, there are many people who criticize these things.
According to the level of subtitles on the post bar, many of the scoldings below are relatively ugly. There are dirty jokes such as why Koreans can’t buy Sakura Girls because [ok.jpg] cannot satisfy Sakura Girls.
Just as Meixia was about to write something to the LPL team, she took a look at the rebuttal and quickly left with a blush.
I am ashamed of myself for my skill in key wording!
But as a player and time traveler, Meixia also has things she is good at. She and her fans are different from herself who could only be a spectator in the past. Now she can use her strength to rectify the name of lpl on the field.
And the reason why we are working so hard to improve the level of LPL these days is not to prove that LPL players are not weaker than LCK, but that the developed LPL system is stronger than LCK.
Although msi is destined that only edg will participate in the lpl team, and there is no way to prove that lpl can't win if they get rid of themselves, but she knows that this year's League of Legends will have an international event that more than one lpl team will participate in after msi!
By then the rumor that LPL only relies on Sakura girls will be self-defeating.
After reading the post, Korea’s comments also made Miha care about her old teammates deft and pawn.
Click here for news related to the LCK playoffs.
lck entered the playoffs earlier than lpl.
The third round of the bubble competition was completed on April 15th. Kt, led by deft and pawn who returned from China, defeated ruler and the Samsung team led by them.
In a few days, on the 22nd, when LPL's edg will play in the semi-finals, the spring finals bo5 of kt and skt will be held simultaneously.
Quickly send a private message to your old teammates.
"deft, fighting! msi meet!"
“pawn,(copy↑)”
However, according to Summer's memory, SKT should have won the 2017 MSI, so there is a high probability that KT will lose in the LCK finals.
Well, you two good brothers wish themselves well, I will remember to avenge you both.
Just like the hot-blooded anime, let’s set off together with the faith of our seniors!
Soon, deft and pawn, who were ranking, received the message.
"Oh! Heku! Mika sent me a message to cheer for the final!" Paw said.
"Oh, I received it too. How many minutes and seconds did you receive it..."
"What were you doing a minute ago?" Pawn didn't understand.
"Aha, I received it half a minute before you. Mika sent it to me first. It seems that Sakura girl cares about me more." deft said with a smile.
What the alpaca said left Pawn speechless.
"Axi... It's been half a year, and I finally have the opportunity to go to the World Championships and meet EDG. I really miss it!"
Mata, who was playing support next to him, heard the conversation between the two and said with some surprise, "Pawn, do you still miss your time in edg last year? It seems that Sakura girl stole the starting lineup!"
Nowadays, the rumors in LCK are basically saying that when Pawn was in Edg, Mika took away the starting position. Unable to bear it, he and Deft terminated their contract and returned to China after the World Championship.
Even more exaggerated, there are rumors that Pawn was unfairly treated in EDG - otherwise, Pawn would have been able to lead the team to the finals when he returned to LCK, and the gap between him and Sakura Girl would not be so big that he would sit on the bench for a year.
In addition, Pawn is relatively talkative, and rarely talks about edg in the kt team (you can't say that he is willing to be a substitute and watch the water dispenser in the edg team), so even others, including mata, thought he was
It has a general relationship with deft and edg.
"No, no, it's great in EDG." Pawn quickly explained, "Mika and the factory manager are very nice, and I'm teammates with Sakura girl. Although I'm a substitute, I also got the championship skin, so there's nothing unpleasant about it."
Deft said for Pawn, "It should be easy to understand Mata. I look forward to meeting RNG on the world stage!"
But mata doesn't miss rng that much. Seeing that rng's performance has not improved, he immediately decisively and peacefully broke up with the team. Moreover, he didn't win any honors during rng, and there was no pleasing teammate like Sakura girl in the team.
The round-faced Mata smiled and said, "Haha, I wish all my old clubs didn't have as good results as me! Besides, it would be a bit difficult for rng to win against edg!"
…
Soon, Meixia also received a text message reply.
pawn: "fighting! See you in Brazil!"
deft: "Tell mouse, remember to buy my champion skin! I watched your live broadcast!"
Meixia immediately turned around, "Mouse, did you just buy your own champion skin?"
"Who said that?" mouse asked quickly.
"Deft said it. He said he watched your live broadcast."
"Uh, I'll buy it right away!" mouse was embarrassed.
"Remember to buy mine too!" Mei Xia added.
"And mine!" the director and Meiko, who were also in the training room, said in unison.
In order to save money, this guy only bought the top order skin!
How can the top laner of the mighty champion be so miserable!
Even Uzi, the old enemy of the factory director, bought a full set of edg skins!
——Among the promotional videos for champion skins on the Internet in the past few days, apart from the team ranking review of the edg team, the most popular one is a video of the rng team.
Ming just pre-ordered and got the full set of edg skins, I can’t wait to use them in ranked.
Uzi stood silently behind him and took a look, his eyes slightly red, then he walked back to his seat as if nothing had happened, and silently opened the store to buy skins.
[At this moment, the puppy thought of the past that he had missed the champion skin several times...]
[The factory director’s long-cherished wish has come true, will Uzi have a chance to get his own skin in his lifetime...]
[The puppy is no longer the high-spirited puppy it once was...]
Different from the competition between the two heroes of LCK, RNG in LPL also ranked first in Group A of the Spring Split. However, since the playoffs, no one thought that RNG could defeat its old enemy Edg.
