Asian Games, Event Introduction E-Sports
Korea participates in 4 specific events... LoL is the world's best talent.
In the Asian Games, the rules of 'PUBG Mobile' have changed drastically, and the match is in the fog.
E-sports, which involves competing with various types of video games, was adopted as an official sport for the first time at this year's Asian Games (AG).
Esports has not been recognized as an official sport for a long time, but its potential as a sport was newly recognized when it was selected as a demonstration sport for the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta and Palembang.
At the competition, which consisted of a total of six events, Korea won a gold medal in StarCraft 2 and a silver medal in League of Legends (LoL).
There are a total of 7 AG e-sports events in which official medals are awarded for the first time in history, and Korea will participate in 4 of them: LoL, Battleground Mobile, FIFA Online 4, and Street Fighter V.
'Honor of the Prince', 'Three Kingdoms of Dreams', and 'Dota 2' do not send players due to insufficient professional player pool and base. 카지노사이트
Some say that the detailed events were selected to favor China, the host country.
Following the Hangzhou Games, e-sports' position is expected to become even stronger as it is confirmed to be included as an official event in the Aichi-Nagoya Summer AG to be held in 2026.
LoL is a globally popular game and a sport in which Korea has world-class skills.
This is a game in which five players work together to develop their chosen champion, break through the opponent's defense, and destroy the 'Nexus' building located deep in the main base to win the game.
The game's stage, 'Summoner's Rift', is the blue team's main base in the lower left corner and the red team's main base in the upper right corner.
The main bases of both teams have three attack lanes (top), middle (mid) and bottom (bottom) ) is connected.
The players' positions are divided into top laner, mid laner, bottom laner, supporter, and jungler, respectively, depending on the region they mark and the main champion.
Top laners play the upper lane, mid laners play the middle lane, bottom laners and supports play the bottom lane, and junglers grow by hunting neutral monsters in the ‘jungle’ between the lines.
There are over 160 champions in LoL.
Before the start of each set, there is a 'select and ban' (ban pick) procedure in which both teams take turns in a certain order and select which champions to ban and which champions to use in the match.
Just by looking at the ban picks, both teams' strategies and the approximate structure of the game can be seen. Readable.
The LoL national team has a total of 6 players, including substitutes.
‘Faker’ Lee Sang-hyeok (T1), who is a mid laner and captain of the national team, is called ‘GOAT’ (Greatest of All Time) as he has won the most domestic league and international competitions among LoL professional gamers around the world.
National team coach Kim Jeong-gyun is also a top leader who served as coach and manager of T1 from 2012 to 2019 and was with Lee Sang-hyeok during his heyday.
The biggest rival of the Korean LoL national team is China, with whom they have clashed several times in international competitions.
The Chinese LoL Pro League LPL won the 'Mid-Season Invitational' (MSI), an international competition held in the first half of every year, last year and this year.
In particular, at this year's MSI held in London, England, the Chinese team defeated the Korean team in the semifinals and advanced to the finals, leading to the term 'London disaster'.
Attention is focused on whether the Korean national team, which has the best lineup for each position, including Korean mercenaries active in the Chinese professional league, Seo Jin-hyeok (JDG) and Park "Ruler" Jae-hyeok (JDG), will be able to defeat China in this AG stage.
‘Battleground (PUBG) Mobile’ is a detailed sport in which four people compete as a team to compete in shooting and driving skills.
Originally, PUBG Mobile is a game in which about 100 players fight with guns until the last person or team remains.
However, in this Asian Games, the anti-personnel shooting element, which is the core of the game, was excluded, and the rules were drastically revised in a way similar to biathlon where shooting is done while circling the course.
Each team must fall by parachute, drive a prepared car, drive to the target location, and shoot the target.
The winner is determined by how quickly you complete all four tracks.
It may seem easy at first glance, but the target is smaller and moves faster than expected, and you have to work together to overcome a complex course quickly, so it is a sport that requires both teamwork and precise shooting skills.
In the PUBG mobile event, a total of five players, including captain ‘Fabian’ Park Sang-cheol (D Plus Kia) and Kwon Soon-bin (Deoksan e-Sports), are aiming for medals.
PUBG is a Korean intellectual property (IP), but teams from China and Southeast Asia showed strength in the recent international competition 'PUBG Mobile World Invitational' (PMWI).
However, this is the first time a competition has been held without person-to-person shooting.
In fact, only the title is the same, but the content is completely different, so it is difficult for any team to guarantee superiority.
The fighting game 'Street Fighter V' is very popular in North America and Asia.
It is a brand well known in Korea for its previous work, ‘Street Fighter 2’.
This is a game in which you choose one of about 40 characters, including 'Ryu', 'Chun-Li', and 'Dhalsim', which the older generation may have heard of at least once in the arcade, and fight them, winning by reducing the opponent's physical strength to 0 first.
In fighting games, reaction speed and understanding of character skills are important.
Fighting games are known as a genre with a high barrier to entry, but it is fun to watch as the opponent attacks without a moment's effort due to brilliant linking techniques or is cornered and then turns the tables in an instant.
In Korea, two players, Yeon Je-gil and Kim Kwan-woo, were selected as members of the national team and will perform on the AG stage.
'FIFA Online 4', a soccer game serviced by Nexon, is a sport in which one player controls a total of 11 players to play a soccer game against the opponent.
The game screen and rules are similar to real soccer, but since it is a game, the overall pace is faster than reality.
The game time consists of a total of 8 minutes, 4 minutes in the first half and 4 minutes in the second half.
The FIFA Online 4 national team features two players, Kwak Jun-hyuk (KT Rolster) and Park Ki-young (Ultra Sejong), who have achieved high results in several domestic and international competitions.
