For fans in the LPL, Edward Gaming (EDG) is a team of extremely special meaning. This is the closest LPL representative of World Championship in the 2021 season. Moreover, EDG's championship at Worlds 2021 is also very respectable when they defeated very strong representatives from LCK like Gen.G or DK.
EDG used to be the pride of the LPL area with the title of Worlds 2021
Despite such a beautiful past, EDG at the present time proved to be extremely heavy. Even in the new video posted on Weibo social networks, EDG was also “god” by his own “god” Meiko. Supporting the star of the Top Esports (TES) frankly, he did not want to fight with EDG because the quality of the team was too bad.
In a video back to the gathering of old friends, Meiko shared about the current EDG: “My team does not want to practice with EDG at all. Simply because the quality of those exercises is not good and does not benefit at all. Some other teams have similar complaints.”
Meiko shared frankly with Clearlove in a gathering session: “My team (TES) does not want to fight with EDG. The quality of such exercise matches is not good at all and does not bring any benefits”
After the 2021 World Championship, EDG showed an extremely clear decline in recent years. Especially after the departure of a series of pillars such as Flandre, Scout, Meiko, Viper, EDG's achievement is only bad in each season. From the Summer LPL champion 2021, they only get positions like Top 8 or Top 6 in the regional tournament.
Jiejie is the only member of the World Championship team 2021 still staying at EDG, this player himself no longer retains good form.
Even before the upcoming summer LPL 2024, this team even broke up with notable players like Ale or Fisher. This makes EDG's personnel have both quality “bottom” and no reputation. Perhaps for this reason, Meiko has just made the cruel comments as above.
EDG used to be 16/17 in the LPL group stage of Spring 2024, this can be completely repeated with the personnel situation that is not very important before the summer tournament.
It should be known that in the last Spring LPL 2024, EDG has been the penultimate position in the group stage with only 3 victories. With the weak force that was seriously damaged, it would not be too surprising if EDG continued to fall to the bottom of the Summer LPL rankings 2024. This is really a sad perspective for the team that used to be the pride of the LPL.
