Dear LPL viewers andLeague of LegendsHello summoners, this is the World Game Center.

The LPL playoffs have reached the finals stage. Next up will be the finals and three bubble games to determine the four teams that will advance to the World Championship. After entering the offseason, they will wait for the World Championship to begin.

During this process, LPL received two pieces of bad news, which sparked heated discussions among the audience.

The canteen officially bids farewell, Guan Zeyuan reveals his identity

The first piece of bad news is that the LPL canteen program is going to be discontinued. After the match between WBG and TES ended, the LPL official live broadcast room broadcast the canteen program. This time the canteen program invited the three phantom gods, namely Guan Zeyuan, Jide and Cat, the strongest trio in the canteen, and no guests were invited.

As usual, the three of them reviewed the game and went through various segments, and finally said goodbye. After the show ended, the director cut out the farewell shots of all the recordings in the canteen over the past six years. Many viewers were surprised to realize that six years had already passed.

The canteen program has accompanied countless LPL viewers in the past six years and has brought a lot of joy to the audience. Many viewers actually do not want the canteen to end.

In addition, Guan Zeyuan also revealed his identity in the opening session. I remember he was asked to choose between the top lane and the bottom lane, and Guan Zeyuan chose the bottom lane. I remember he was originally referring to The Shy and JKL, but Guan Zeyuan misunderstood it as The Shy and Uzi. Later he directly stated that he was talking about Uzi. As early as S3, he posted on Weibo that he thought Uzi was very strong.

Xiaoxiao prepares for surgery and will commentate on the S-League for the last time

Another piece of bad news comes from the second-channel commentator. It can be said that the commentator with the highest traffic on the second-channel is DYS. DYS's Xiaoxiao and Xika have been controversial for many years, but it must be said that the commentary level and game understanding ability of both of them are indeed very high, so they can have more audience traffic support.

It can be said that Xiaoxiao has persisted in commentating for much longer than the canteen program. Xiaoxiao has been commentating since he retired and has come all the way to the present. Now Xiaoxiao's physical condition has problems with his eyes and he suffered a stroke this year. At the same time, Xika's physical condition is also not optimistic.

Xiaoxiao had thought about retiring before, but he never left. This time before the operation, Xiaoxiao posted a message saying that he was preparing for the operation, and would comment on the bubble game after returning. After the bubble game, he would stop broadcasting for a month in September, wait for the world game to start and then rest.

After the end of this year's World Championship, DYS's ten years will come to an end. It will depend on them (other DYS anchors) in the future. There will be people who will continue to broadcast on the platform, but he has too many debuffs on his body and it will take a long time to clear them.

The most difficult year for LPL, longing for a Chinese champion

Personally, I think that judging from the various events and signs that have happened this year, S14 is indeed the most difficult year for LPL since its establishment. Of course, the dark ages that LPL has experienced may have brought a stronger sense of oppression to the audience, but it must be said that LOL was on the rise at the time. Even though LPL’s performance was poor, it was not lacking in popularity, and everyone was full of confidence in the future.

But the situation is completely different now. It can be said that LPL has reached its lowest point in popularity this year. The audience has experienced too much. The departure of top players, coupled with poor results and the audience's aesthetic fatigue, has led to the loss of a large number of old viewers. Now the canteen program and the second-channel highest-traffic commentator are also saying goodbye to the audience.

After so many years, most LPL viewers are actually very satisfied with the achievements that have been made. But the only regret is that we have not seen an all-Chinese team win the championship. If the audience were asked to choose the most perfect ending for LPL, it would be that BLG or TES could win the world championship this year.

If this goal can be achieved, I believe that all the audience, including the older generation of e-sports people, will have no regrets. We also hope that Sun Yalong can improve his physical fitness through a healthier lifestyle after the operation. Perhaps one day the canteen and DYS will be able to return.
