Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World Game Exchange.
The transfer period of the China and South Korea division is underway, and the LCK division has begun to be officially announced in the past two days, and the first noteworthy news is that GEN is likely to lift the dissolution crisis, and the renewal of the contract of the upper middle field and the addition of the lower Ruler joined.
And tonight, Faker is ushered in bad news, and the new LCK transfer period has been revealed.
T1 has been officially announcing the news for a few days before, the first to renew the contract of Keria player, then Oner, and the third official announcement is Gumayusi, of which Nosuke is renewed for two years, and Gumayusi is renewed for one year, everyone thinks that the T1 team will officially announce a news a day, and fans are ready to accept the steady happiness from the T1 club.
Unexpectedly, there was bad news tonight, about Zeus players, in addition to T1, HLE is pursuing it with all its might, and has offered a price of 30-4 billion won, which is converted into 15.6 million to 20.8 million yuan.
It is said that HLE is sincerely pursuing Zeus and is willing to pay a lot of luxury tax for Zeus players, combined with the clues of the transfer period, the previous revelations show that HLE has given up Doran, and the first stage is to pursue GEN's top laner Kiin, but the new news shows that GEN has renewed the contract with the three of Kaminakano, and when there is no Kiin this option, HLE is indeed likely to transfer the target to Zeus.
The news of T1's contract renewal has also been interrupted, and it seems that T1's transfer period is not calm, HLE is indeed a strong opponent, they won the summer tournament this year, even if they lost to BLG, they also showed strong strength.
If the revelations are true, then the two strong teams in the LCK will compete for the top single Zeus, here we can briefly analyze, first of all, we can determine that HLE is indeed a club with strong financial resources in the LCK, and the degree of money can be broken with T1, and even the last few transfer periods are money that cannot be spent.
HLE previously offered Viper the highest salary in the industry, and winning the summer championship this year also gave HLE a certain degree of confidence to strengthen the team.
But this time HLE has to face a different opponent, the T1 team is a team that has eaten the salary cap benefits of the LCK region, under the LCK's salary cap system, the annual salary of several players in T1 does not need to be 100% added to the salary cap, and only 35% of Faker's salary will go into the salary cap calculation.
While other players have at most 50% of their annual salary, T1 has a natural advantage, so if you want to compete with T1, you have to come up with a lot of money, which is extremely difficult.
When HLE offers Zeus this price, T1 can also renew Zeus at a corresponding price, because T1 is not very willing to accept the loss of Zeus, especially at this stage of the transfer period, once Zeus makes the decision to leave, it is difficult for T1 to find a place to replace him.
In the future, everyone can look forward to who can successfully sign Zeus, and I personally prefer T1 to renew Zeus, weighing the pros and cons, the risk of Zeus leaving will be greater, unless there is any special reason for Zeus to leave, HLE is also in a more urgent state, and if there is still an alternative to Doran, it may be better.
And no matter who Zeus belongs to in the end, the LCK will have at least three top teams, and they are teams with the level of strength to compete for the world championship, that is, T1, GEN and HLE, to keep the basic plate of the LCK region, while the other teams in the league are difficult to make up a real top lineup, and next year the LCK will inevitably be greater than the LPL in terms of comprehensive strength.
What the LPL side needs to bear is the loss of Ruler, JDG is difficult to build a stronger lineup, if WBG can't sign a right-hand team, the team's reinforcement is also limited, and LNG maintains the original team so that people can't see much hope, and only BLG may still have the strength to fight.
Of course, the transfer period in the LPL region is still ongoing, and there will be many possibilities for changes, and I don't know what kind of plot will await you in the future.
