LOL ushered in a historic moment, and the Olympic Games were officially announced! It will start next year, and the gold content is expected to surpass the S competition

Hello LPL viewers and League of Legends summoners, this is the World Game Exchange.

This year, in addition to Riot's two official events, MSI and S, LOL also added a new event, the Esports World Cup hosted by Saudi Arabia, and Korea T1 finally won the championship.


And after the end of the Saudi World Cup, LOL ushered in another blockbuster news, the e-sports Olympics are coming.

LOL historic moment, the official announcement of the Olympic Games

E-sports into the Olympics is a hot topic in the past few years, e-sports into Asia has been successful, but it is very difficult to enter the Olympic Games, including the Olympic President has said that e-sports because of its particularity can not enter the Olympics, and after that, the Olympic Committee is to re-propose the concept of an e-sports Olympics.


To put it simply, it is to hold an Olympics with only esports and cover a variety of esports sports.

This year, Saudi Arabia was the first to host the E-sports World Cup, and after that, the International Olympic Committee officially announced yesterday that it will host the E-sports Olympics next year, and this time the Olympics will be held in Saudi Arabia.

According to the announcement, the next esports Olympics will start to select the city and venue for the first esports Olympics, and at the same time determine the specific time and project of the event, as well as the qualification of the players and other details.


In addition, the IOC will establish a new structure within its organization, clearly separate from the organization and finance of the Games, and in order to respond to the special nature of the esports Games, the IOC will also have to take a different approach to the financing and organization of the Games.

The World Cup is disappointing, can the Olympics be successful?

After the news of this year's World Cup was announced, everyone was speculating about what the World Cup would be, if according to the traditional sports of the World Cup, it generally has to be participated in by the national team, but the follow-up series of details about the World Cup were made public, and the audience found that this World Cup event was not as top as imagined.


Like many other esports events, the World Cup is actually a tournament played by clubs, and this alone makes the World Cup event less valuable.

Taking the LOL project as an example, the schedule is too short, and the team running back and forth schedule is very tight, which is very different from the World Cup of traditional sports events.


There are also too many suspensions for the event, and during the LOL finals, the interval between the end of each game is too long, coupled with a large number of pauses, resulting in a very poor viewing experience for the audience, so after the news of the Olympic Games is announced, the audience's question is whether this e-sports Olympics is the same as this World Cup?

If it is held on a large scale, the gold content is expected to exceed that of the S competition

There are many things to consider when holding the Olympic Games, as we all know that major esports events have their own official events, and the Olympics need to be staggered from these official events, and the major leagues must make concessions.


To put it simply, if the Olympic Games are like this year's World Cup, a project will last only a few days, then the gold content will definitely not work, but if the Olympic Games really follow the model of traditional sports, the gold content will inevitably rise sharply, even more than the S competition.

Analogous to the traditional Olympic Games, arranging an Olympic village for the athletes, with a good food and accommodation environment, and then extending the timeline of the competition, such a large-scale event requires the cooperation of all e-sports events.


Another key point is to see whether the Olympic Games will be a national team competition, if it is the nature of the national team, then there will be an increase in gold content, in short, if next year's Olympic Games and this year's World Cup have a specification, then the result is a failure, if it is in accordance with the traditional Olympic Games, it must be full of gold content.
