Chapter 56 LCK Spring Split, debut
The opening ceremony of the 2016 LCK Spring Split, as well as the regular season venue, is at the Yongsan Electronic Arena in the suburbs of Seoul.
This is currently known as the largest e-sports venue in South Korea. Compared with last year, the capacity has more than tripled. It is equipped with main and auxiliary stages, professional commentary seats, commentary seats and other stage lenses.
After Chen Yiqiu arrived at Longshan Arena, he witnessed with his own eyes the shocking scene of crowds of people.
Why do you say shocking?
Because when passing by the entrance of the venue, he saw that many spectators were over thirty years old, and he even spotted a few elderly people in their forties or fifties with slightly white hair.
Adults, children, women...
This is a configuration of audience identities that you will never see in the domestic LPL spectator seats.
It is common in Korea.
I heard that the newly built largest e-sports venue in South Korea is due to the success of the S4 Global Finals. The Korean government discovered the dividends of e-sports and specifically invested heavily in the new building for the development of the e-sports industry.
Social status, pillar industry...
Chen Yiqiu understood this sentence again.
“I heard... In South Korea, TV stations can also watch e-sports competitions?”
“Of course.”
Hearing the sound, Lee Sang Hyuk finished checking in and whispered to Chen Yiqiu explained: "TV channels such as SBS, MBC, and Esports have professional e-sports channels and platforms for scheduled real-time live broadcasts."
"When I was a child, I often watched Star Wars games with my grandma...I miss that time very much."
Chen Yiqiu nodded.
The TV station includes an e-sports channel, and it is normal for the whole family to watch the game together after dinner...
“Then aren’t there a lot of people paying attention to our game today?”
Chen Yiqiu made a joke casually.
Who knows, Li Sang Hyuk thought about it seriously, looked at him, nodded and said: "Indeed, it's not a lot, it's a lot..."
"Huh?"
"Let's go."< br>
Lee Sang Hyuk didn’t say much, he greeted his teammates and walked into the backstage of the competition venue.
Next, they will also receive simple makeup, of course, camera setup, and language training. LCK seems to be extremely persistent in maintaining their image in the camera.
……
At the same time.
Domestic, LCK broadcast channel.
The former OMGADC, the current LCK commentator in the LPL division, and the recently hired beauty commentator Rita are sitting in the live broadcast room, simply telling the audience various information about the two teams in today's LCK opening game. .
The most important thing is CJ, who is not familiar with it, and...Reaper.
"CJ performed very well last year, but SKT is undoubtedly the strongest player in the LCK... However, SKT, which we are familiar with in the past, has also introduced a 'special' player in the new season."
The Umbrella Emperor had a smile on his face, and R next to him ita answered: "Yes, that is SKT's Chinese player in the new season, Reaper."
After saying that, the live broadcast room, which was already extremely popular, was flooded with barrages, with various rhythms in an instant. And the abuse and attacks filled the screen.
The Umbrella Emperor glanced at the internal popularity statistics below, feeling overjoyed and inexplicably excited.
According to convention, the LCK broadcast channel in the LPL division should not be as popular as it is today.
Although the popularity of the LCK broadcast room today is not as high as that of the LPL main broadcast room, the difference is not much different.
As for the reason, there is no other reason -
Chen Shengtai is too hot.
Double Crown Dynasty, SKT, the world's number one giant that they could only look up to in the past, has signed a Chinese player for the first time in history.
This alone is attractive enough.
Not to mention the things and achievements that ‘Chen Sheng’ had done before. It can be said that no wonder everyone is hating Chen Sheng now. This horse riding is the direction of the wind and is now the code of wealth!
There were so many water fans gathered in the live broadcast room today, and even many professional teams were secretly observing. Isn't it because they were curious and wanted to see Reaper's jokes?
“...You may have heard of Reaper player recently, well... he is a player who did not perform well in the past, but since he can be signed by SKT, I believe he also has his own special features. "
The Umbrella Emperor wanted money but not horses, so he first secretly disparaged Chen Yiqiu, and then said with a smile:
"The top laner he is facing today is the very familiar Shy, one of the representative LCK Carry top laners known as the King of Jayce. Let's look forward to it together."
"Yes, it's just Reaper. It's actually quite unexpected to be signed by SKT..."
Rita took over the conversation, and the two immediately started talking.
Half an hour later, the director announced, and everyone was startled.
“Then the opening ceremony of the LCK Spring Split is over, let’s get into today’s game together.”
The camera turned and the scene finally came to the LCK broadcast room.
The densely packed audience enthusiastically waved their tokens of support. Among them, SKT fans accounted for almost 90% of the seats in the venue.
The stone hammer is named "LCK's RNG".
With the appearance of everyone from SKT, CJ and others, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly reached a climax.
"Okay...we see that the players from T1 and the players from CJ have entered the venue!"
At the scene, the LCK host and commentator, Roaring Emperor, and another beautiful female commentator full of Korean charm, wearing headsets, wearing formal clothes, and smiling.
The Roaring Emperor introduced the players who were making their debut in the new season in an enthusiastic tone.
I was stunned until the camera showed a strange-looking but handsome young man.
Then he smiled and said: "Wow... We saw that the Reaper player introduced in the new season of T1, the 'teacher of players around the world' who has made a big name all over the world... is finally official today. Appearing in LCK."
"Although you have never seen him on camera, you should be familiar with him."
Miss Li Xianjing smiled and said: "As the first foreign player to be introduced in the history of LCK, and he can also be in the starting position of T1, I believe he must be outstanding."
"Well... at least he is His appearance is eye-catching. "
There was laughter in the audience. The LCK commentator seemed to be quite neutral in his attitude towards Chen Yiqiu. He was not as utilitarian as LPL, and he only occasionally made fun of him.
The atmosphere here is lively, and the director camera has switched to the BP interface.
As soon as they came up, CJ followed the version trend and eliminated Dashu, Lulu, and the Czar.
SKT banned Ryze, Wheel Mother, and Leopard Girl.
Because it is the beginning of the season, everyone is in a state of exploration, and the bans on both sides are quite satisfactory.
However, in terms of selection, CJ from the blue side showed unexpected radicalness -
"Fight for a better tomorrow!"
One Floor, grab Jace first.
Version sewer jace.
"CJ, here we helped player Shy to directly lock Jayce in an instant...Is it the top lane? There is absolutely no need for Jayce in the middle lane in this version, and the possibility of top lane is extremely high."
Roaring Emperor Extremely surprised: "But even on the road, Jace's tactical status and cost-effectiveness are still at the same level. Bottom."
"CJ...are there any new tactics to use in the new season when choosing this hero?"
Li Xianjing's classic 'West Eight' tone: "Wowo~ This is for For Reaper, who has just come on stage, it is a provocation and a challenge. ”
"This SKT debut, the much-anticipated 'newcomer', how to choose?"
The civet cat I just adopted today was found to have cat plague, and I went to the pet hospital late at night and was delayed for a long time. I am in a very low mood. The first update tomorrow will be during the day, and I will post two chapters in a row. I hope everyone can understand.
In addition, are there any experienced brothers and sisters? Is the survival rate of feline plague high... I really like this kitten, she is only four months old
