At the recent MSI 2024, Gen.G can be said to have recreated some of the image of T1 in Worlds last year, when he defeated all LPL representatives in the tournament to win the championship. Worth mentioning, the final final is almost the show of the Gen.G players and the brightest star of Bilibili Gaming is Bin when there are times when he has to carry the whole collective. In particular, Peyz also became the first player to have 28 kills in a final final of an international tournament in League of Legends. This is also a record for the number of kills defeated in a game at MSI and Worlds.
Gen.G brought the MSI championship back to LCK after 7 years
More specifically, Gen.G, not any other name, is that the team has brought the MSI championship back to LCK after 7 long years, since the last time T1 ascended the throne at MSI 2017. However, at the present time, perhaps no need to say, everyone clearly sees: almost no activity revolves around welcoming the championship of the Gen.G from the LCK or Riot. Even the current Spotlight belongs to T1 with Faker's Worlds and Hall of Legends lines preparing to launch.
But accidentally, the attention of the current League of Legends community is pouring back to Faker's Hol
Worth mentioning, some of the image of Riot Han for Gen.G is also taken from the old photo of LCK Spring 2024. This has sparked the frustration of a part of Gen.G. For his part, the representative of this team also expressed his frustration when he thought that there was an injustice when Gen.G brought in historical achievements for LCK. Even in his post, the representative of Gen.G also recalled the 2017 Worlds Vocation (from the time of Samsung Galaxy). For those who do not know, in LCK 2023 propaganda videos last year, there are SKT T1 2016, Damwon Gaming 2020 and Drx 2022 but missing SSG 2017.
The client of League of Legends server uses old photos of spring to celebrate the MSI 2024 championship
Last year, Thumbnail welcomed World Worlds 2023 of Riot Korea without the name Gen.G
“Gen.G brought the MSI championship to LCK after 7 years and has no acknowledgment from Riot. Even the photo in the client is an old photo. They deserve to be welcomed by such an achievement and this is what happened.”
The post of the representative of Gen.G: “We officially contact the LCK about the MSI 2024 championship not shown in the League of Legends server and are waiting for feedback. We are very sorry to take such time to win an international tournament from SSG's World Championship.
However, the incident made a controversy with T1 fans when there were many comments that this was completely unrelated to Faker and his teammates. The schedule of Hol and Skin Worlds 2023 has also been announced in advance. Moreover, it was T1 that many times were “victims” of LCK and Riot. Typically, in the spring period, 2024 they were continuously ddos and had to solve problems for themselves even though to affect the player is the story that Riot and BTC must pay attention to.
Many comments that Riot Han really work is not satisfactory, but Faker's Hol also occupies Spotlight
“I wonder why they have to put T1 in? As if this is the fault of T1?”
Currently, Riot and BTC LCK have no statements about the incident. Meanwhile, for the current League of Legends community, Faker's Hol trailers have also captured the attention and perhaps Gen.G can only wait for the explanation from the responsible parties.
