LPL established an unprecedented milestone in the history of League of Legends in the transfer period at the end of 2024
At the present time, while the LCK teams have almost finished the squad and started to bring the rookie to test in the Kespa Cup 2024, the LPL seemed to start “closing the book” of the deals. In 2 days 03 and 04/12, continuously notifying the parting of the players of LPL teams in the transfer period at the end of the 2024 season. This accidentally “helped” LPL to set up a special milestone.
All three teams who won the World Championship no longer hold any player of the squad when winning the title after that after EDG broke up Jiejie
Accordingly, with EDG also officially parted with Jiejie, all three LPL teams who once won the World Championship no longer retain any members in those titles. Although the Invictus Gaming is about to build a new “super team” with the participation of Thery and maybe Rookie, but now they have not officially announced.
This special milestone of LPL is even “unprecedented” in League of Legends. Because, every day Faker still plays for T1, there will always be at least one World Champion who still plays for the host team with them to take the throne. And even when Faker has retired, it is likely that there were Gumayusi, Oner … instead he took over this “position”.
LCK will not compare with LPL at this point when Faker is almost sure to always wear T1 until the end of his career
But also shows the harshness and elimination of LPL through each transfer season
The fact that there is no more World Champion who still plays with them with them also shows two factors: LPL players are easy to lose motivation or performance after taking the throne and the harsh elimination environment of LPL does not leave anyone. Former players may still be called (Theshy, Doinb, Rookie, Jackkeylove …) but it will be difficult for them to re -establish achievements in the past.
The return of superstars like Theshy is not sure to help LPL
And also after this golden stage, LPL almost no longer can think of glory. Worlds 2022 is “LCK Civil War”, Worlds 2023 is the overwhelming T1 while Worlds 2024, BLG lacks genius moments while Faker alone has at least two such situations.
LPL is always the most powerful area of League of Legends. However, they are falling for many reasons. Only thing, when LPL regained the golden stage, perhaps the teams here have not yet answered.
