In any professional sport in general, as well as eSports in particular, negative problems (scoring, semi -level …) are always acts that need to be eliminated and thoroughly handled. Because, these moves not only affect the results of 1, 2 matches but also that sport will also be affected. More worrying, the damage and consequences that they bring still affect the future, including individuals and collectives involved or not. Typically at LDL – the second prestigious tournament in China, only behind the biggest tournament is LPL.
LDL is the second largest tournament of the land of billion people
However, this tournament is extremely notorious and worth mentioning, the problems have lasted for many years. Specifically, LDL has always been considered the second highest professional LoL tournament in the land of billion people, but for a long time, LDL has also been associated with the negative related to the semi -level and ratio arrangement. Not far away, in the period of 2021, Funplus Phoenix's jungle player had to confess his selling behavior. And worth mentioning, Bo's behavior has been going on when he was still in LDL and after he was promoted to the main squad of FPX, if Bo did not admit itself, no one would know.
Bo is the most famous case involved in the arrangement of the score from LDL
After Bo's incident, many other names also revealed each year. In those cases, sometimes some individuals are single, but sometimes a team team. Specifically, in August 2022, LDL punished the banned competition of all members of the two teams, Team Orange and Twelve, also for the acts of arranging the score.

Perhaps, it is because the problem of arranging scoring in this tournament is becoming persistent and tends to be difficult to solve, LPL and Riot are calculating the closing of the tournament permanently. Specifically, according to the usual schedule, at this time, LDL also had to start the spring 2024 (LDL Spring 2023 was started on February 4, but before that it was loudly promoted as well as updating the schedule to all the platforms. However, up to now, everything is still strange.
The season has begun but LDL's Weibo page is still silent and the latest article has been from September 15, 2023
Perhaps, this year's LDL tournament does not need to start early, but there are also cases where LPL and Riot plans to reform the entire tournament system. But whatever the reason, if the LDL tournament really has to be suspended, it will be able to greatly affect the League of Legends of the land of billion people when this is a tournament that provides a large number of young players to teams in LPL and in other areas.
