It wasn't just Qiu Le, and it wasn't just "LOL friends".
Early this morning, countless players who had just woken up from their dreams received similar pop-up messages from the various information software they had downloaded on their mobile phones.
Then, the moment they saw the pushed content, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.
Revealing a look of shock and horror!
At eight o 'clock in the morning in Beijing, a news announcement was first released on the official website of Fist.
The homepage of the official website of the national server was updated at the same time.
Then, it was pushed by the major platforms of the domestic internet to the top of the homepage, with the eye-catching red text reflected in the eyes of all netizens who clicked on the page.
Major media, self-media, Tieba, and forums followed closely behind, releasing and uploading the news articles that had been prepared two or three days in advance, through their respective channels, to the phones and computers of millions of players.
In just half an hour.
Following the example of their superiors.
Radiating to the entire internet.
And all kinds of eye-catching news headlines, news articles, the wording on the push introduction was accurate and consistent:
"New Season Outlook, New Year's Event Planning Statistics."
In the traditional field of news, there was a saying: "The fewer words, the bigger the matter."
And in the esports news circle, there was a similar principle. The more ordinary and boring the news title, the more information it contained was destined to be.
But as long as one clicked on the content page of such a news announcement, they would see a flat and monotonous presentation of the content without rhetoric.
Monotonous and emotionless.
But every word and even every punctuation was enough to shock people.
The first paragraph of the news article was just a plain description, expressing that the new season's professional league events would be adjusted, changed, and added.
Then, it went straight to the point —
Quickly, the content of the event planning was heavily smashed in front of all the netizens.
MSI Mid-Season Invitational.
League of Legends Intercontinental Series.
League of Legends All-Star Invitational Group Challenge. Celebrity individual solo competition.
Pacific Rim Regional Championship.
ESWC Esports World Cup League of Legends Invitational.
S Series League of Legends World Finals.
It also included CPL Professional Esports League Championship, WCG League of Legends Heavenly King Cup, and so on. Every event seemed to reveal an incomparably heavy weight from the words, fiercely shocking the eyes of the netizens, shocking them to the point of dizziness.
It was as if the curtain was about to be pulled up.
An unprecedented and magnificent blueprint for the new season was about to unfold before the eyes of the entire server and even the players of League of Legends all over the world.
These heavyweight competitions, whether old or new, had relevant text explanations at the bottom of each subtitle, describing the specific rules and specifications of each competition. It also imperceptibly revealed the weight and status of each competition. Perhaps even compared to the top S League, they were not much inferior.
At the end of the text description of some of the events, there was a note in parentheses stating that the event "may invite special guests from various regions who have won Advanced Esports Honors in the past to participate and present equally exciting confrontational performances."
Most netizens might not be able to understand this, but the meaning revealed was enough to shock the few who knew the truth.
North America, Seaso
Club Base.
They were also looking at the press release released by the Fist Corporation's official website. They didn't seem to care about the descriptions of the other competitions.
His gaze fell on the seemingly ordinary line of words, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
(Special guest …)
Next to the other Seaso.
The team members looked at their captain curiously.
"Captain, is there a problem?"
He retracted his gaze from the news article on his phone and shook his head. However, a rare smile appeared on his face.
"Nothing."
"It's just that … I'm looking forward to it."
Also in North America, the dark horse of this season's Crown Club Base.
As the team's core ace ADC, Blade looked at the description of the "special guest" in the press release with a look of surprise and nervousness on his face.
The thin and indifferent figure that he still respected and worshiped flashed in his mind. It was as if he was looking up to a tall mountain that was beyond his reach.
Blade subconsciously tightened his grip on his phone.
This time …
He would prove it to his master!
Europe, Lege
Dundee Club Base.
IX's expression was as calm as still water. Regarding the situation that he had just learned, the recognized number one wizard in Europe didn't seem to be the slightest bit happy. His gaze fell on the line of words, but there seemed to be an additional sense of disgust and conflict.
He actually … wanted to fight alongside those old things.
Even if they were legends of the past, for him, for the LCS division, they were not worthy of respect.
Korea, Seoul
SSK Club Base.
Ray, holding a phone, ran into the living room excitedly and shouted to his teammates on the sofa.
"Did you see that?"
"It's officially announced! There's going to be a big move next year! We might even be able to compete with Dao-Jae and Senior M! "
Cube, who was sitting on the sofa, pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and squinted at them.
"What's there to be excited about? We already knew."
Ray was stunned, and then he suddenly became discouraged. "Is that so …" Then he looked around and suddenly wondered, "Hey, where's Brother Shihao?"
Wolf, who was sitting on the side, raised his head and gestured in the direction of the training room.
"Still training."
Ray was stunned and showed a somewhat incredulous look.
"Training so early in the morning? Isn't it a rest day? "
"Besides, with Brother Shihao's current strength, he doesn't need to work so hard anymore. He can easily sweep everyone. If you ask me, we can definitely win the S championship next season!"
Cube gave him a cold look.
"Do you think everyone is like you? They only know how to slack off every day."
"Even Captain's current realm is a result of hard work step by step. If we don't work hard, we'll only be a burden to Captain."
At this time, Mafa, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, finally spoke.
"Also, it's too early to say things like winning consecutive championships."
As he spoke, the ace jungler of SSK Team waved his phone. The same news article could be seen on the screen, and the text stopped at the description of the S League.
"Next year's finals …"
"Let's not talk about anything else, the LPL players will definitely go crazy —"
