The interesting mechanism of VCS is approved by the international League of Legends community
In some recent seasons, the tournament and the whole VCS area have received more attention from the international community. Especially, after the volatile 2024 Spring League, the world audience expects what VCS can do to recover and grow again. Up to the present time, this expectation has been partly met when recently, GAM continues to add to the list of generals in his World Worlds more Mad Lions Koi. However, many viewers also from here have more information about the VCS tournament format.
VCS is being more noticeable and recently, the tournament format is also gossip
Specifically, the VCS tournament as known, has long used the 1v1 showdown format to divide the options for the teams if the match reaches the decisive game (game 3 of BO3 and game 5 of Bo5). According to many opinions, this is considered a perfect and suitable form for all professional League of Legends tournaments in the world. Not only VCS but PCS also applies this form. This not only helps to legalize a League of Legends mode, but also to diversify the competitiveness in a stressful match.
VCS applies 1v1 showdown format when matches must be pulled to game 3 (BO3) or game 5 (Bo5) for the two teams to choose
The BLV of the LJL/LCO Prize shows the advantages of the format that VCS and PCS are applying, the director of Riot APAC area is Chisinx also agree
The formula of VCS and PCS is perfect thanks to Riot “accidentally helping”
In fact, one of the reasons for this formula is welcomed by the international community, largely due to the difference between the power between the blue team and the red team. Although until now, the win rate of the Blue team only falls in about 60%, but most of the red battles winning are because this side has a great difference in strength. The rare match that the Red team won with the strength of both sides almost balanced, perhaps only the Gen.G – Hanwha Life Esports or recently grams of eSports – Mad Lions Koi.
It is clear that the difference rate between the blue and the red side
It was Riot that created the generals that were too unbalanced, which made the win rate of one party completely deviated from the other. On the blue team, the players will easily choose the forte and forced the opponent to make a counter. In the matches between the two teams with almost equivalent power, the fact that one side was held the forte and forbids the generals that could affect them in the match, it seemed to win a huge advantage.
Riot “buff” more generals stronger than the rest also indirectly occurred this difference
Perhaps in the future, if Riot is still struggling in the way of balancing his champion, applying the same format as VCS or PCS currently for other tournaments in the world is also a feasible option, especially when this solution has more beneficial aspects than just to create fairness for both teams.
