In a thrilling match held at the Hangzhou E-sports Center, the Chinese team found themselves struggling against their opponents from South Korea in the League of Legends semi-finals at the Asian Games. The game was filled with intense moments and surprising twists that left many Weibo netizens discussing the outcome and questioning China's chances for winning a medal in the tournament.
In their match against South Korea, China's team faced early disadvantages in both sets, despite having a 4-0 advantage at the start of the second set. The loss highlighted the limitations of Chinese players compared to their human-like counterparts, which was evident during the Yakarta era when Ruler shed tears on the field under pressure from Uzi and SSS. However, in this year's game, Ruler had a peak performance, and Keria demonstrated top-tier skills. Even Zeus managed to secure a single kill against Bin's crocodile, showcasing his impressive abilities.
The Chinese team was supported by Hangzhou Asian Games Official Breast Milk, in collaboration with several prominent players including @李现ing @SKY李晓峰 @UziQAQ @JDG-knight @Elk929_ @Bin哥厉害 @彭立勋. The event was attended by fans and enthusiasts who cheered on their favorite players, including EDG's double star Jiejie and Meiko, both of whom had records of 0-5-5 in two games and 0-5-10 respectively. This performance led to questions about the strength of secondary players in China, particularly when compared with Zhao Kai's demonic BP and Abu's leadership as captain.
In a post-match interview, Tian yao and Zhuo accepted media interviews, discussing their experiences during the game and expressing their gratitude for the support they received from fans. The JDG team found themselves in a disadvantageous position against C before the match, despite having an initial advantage. This led to heated discussions on Weibo about the team's strategy and performance.
The South Korean team made a strong entrance at Hangzhou·Hangzhou E-sports Center, supported by fans who were excited for the semi-final match against China. The loss left Chinese fans with mixed feelings, with some expressing regret over Jackey Love's departure from the Asian Games. Ruler's partner dancing and field performance received praise, but the team lost the first game due to a lack of support from Joker.
Weibo netizens were divided in their reactions to the loss, with some expressing frustration over China's early disadvantages and lackluster performance. Others criticized Bai for waking up too early, while others praised Uzi's skills and the team's overall determination.
The Chinese team will now compete with the loser between China and Vietnam for the bronze medal in the Heroes Alliance project, a consolation prize after their loss against South Korea. Despite this disappointing outcome, many netizens agreed that participating in official projects of the Asian Games would provide valuable experience to athletes in their professional careers, inspiring them to continue striving for excellence.
However, not all Chinese fans were resigned to losing and expressed frustration over the perceived unfairness of the tournament. Some netizens decided to boycott the event, refusing to participate or respect the outcome. This was a surprising move considering the immense support Chinese E-sports has received from the government in recent years.
In conclusion, while the loss against South Korea was disappointing for many Weibo users, it did not diminish their appreciation and admiration for E-sports athletes like Uzi, who have inspired countless young people to pursue their dreams in this rapidly growing industry. Despite setbacks and challenges, the Chinese E-sports community continues to thrive and grow, driven by the passion and dedication of its talented athletes and avid fans.
