Recently, the slots for the League of Legends global Pioneer Tournament across various major regions have been finalized. The LCK region has GEN and BFX, the LEC region has G2, the LCP region has TSW, the CBLOL region is LOUD, the LCS region is LYON, and the LPL region is BLG. There is still one last spot remaining, which will be contested between JDG and WBG from the LPL! It is worth mentioning that all five teams that participated in last year's Pioneer Tournament—HLE, TES, KC, TL, and CFO—were completely eliminated, with none remaining! So it seems that last year's version truly created a small era, which might also be a kind of curse—a curse without a spinning top! It is still unknown how this year's Pioneer Tournament will perform, but it is something to look forward to! However, before the loser bracket final in the LPL determines the last slot, a new story has emerged!


In the previous BO5 match between TES and WBG, TES jungler Naiyou, in the final game playing Scorpion, continuously built magic resistance items against a double physical damage lineup, even purchasing a Spirit Visage! After the match, many TES fans voiced their concerns, believing that such itemization among professional players is completely abnormal—no one would build like that—and there must be something wrong, even match-fixing! However, after the match ended, TES top laner 369 was the first to speak up for this new jungler, perhaps feeling some resonance internally—everyone starts as a newcomer—he thought everyone should show some tolerance to newcomers, otherwise such a舆论 environment would hardly allow new players to grow. Unexpectedly, speaking up on the 3rd led to a boomerang effect by the 6th! Because TES officially announced that after internal investigation, Naiyou indeed engaged in improper conduct!


The so-called improper conduct refers to match-fixing affecting normal gameplay operations, simply put, it involves betting! Amid this series of events, the one most upset is undoubtedly 369, who promptly responded online, saying he has become a clown! Indeed, he sincerely treated his teammate, yet the teammate betrayed him in such a way—it's hard for anyone to accept! The overall environment of the LPL still having such betting behavior, especially within a major club, is truly somewhat unacceptable!
