Representation of LPL Faces Challenges Amidst Familiar Names
Recently, the LPL (League of Legends Pro League) has been in a bit of a slump, causing concern among fans. The current representative, Bilibili Gaming, recently lost to First Stand, while their main competitor, Top Esports, also faced a tough defeat. Just yesterday, Top Esports suffered a loss against Karmine Corp, which was both surprising and hard to understand. More seriously, there are rumors surfacing regarding internal disputes.
Specifically, according to LPL sources, Creme and Kanavi have been embroiled in a dispute. In fact, the rivalry between these two players has been evident in Top Esports’ recent matches. Even when they managed to win against Team Liquid, there were noticeable disagreements in personal performances and during team fights, indicating a lack of cohesion.
However, regarding Kanavi, he continues to engage in disputes with rivals. Previously, while still with JD Gaming, Kanavi was also known for his conflicts with ADC Ruler. Furthermore, there are images circulating that show these two players avoiding direct confrontations or interactions when they are together in front of the audience or on stage.
LPL Representatives No Longer Have an Easy Path
After three matches, Top Esports has only managed to secure one victory against Team Liquid, leaving them with two losses. Notably, Karmine Corp isn’t an overly strong team either. In fact, before facing Top Esports, the LEC representative had lost all their previous matches. Thus, Top Esports’ defeat is even harder to accept. This situation has turned the upcoming match between Top Esports and CFO into a “do-or-die” battle.
With a current roster of 4 out of 5 representatives in the quarter-finals, if Top Esports were to falter, it would be a significant disappointment for LPL fans. Many opinions have suggested that Top Esports is a strong contender for the championship after HLE. However, at this point, the team’s performance has only been able to be described with the two words “disappointing defeat.”
