Recently, the first day of the seventh week of the 2022 LPL Spring Season regular season ushered in the showdown between WE and RA. Because before this game, WE had already played an embarrassing record of 1-9. That is, if they lose to the RA again, they will completely miss the playoffs. Unfortunately, WE has never found its own state, and coupled with the fact that RA has been in a very brave state recently. WE eventually lost 2-0 to RA, not only completely out of touch with the playoffs, but also created a humiliating record of 1-10 in team history.
When it comes to one of the oldest teams in the LPL, WE is undoubtedly one of them. Before the LPL was established, WE was already a very well-known and powerful League of Legends professional team in our country. Moreover, in 2012, WE also won the IPL5 championship, which is also recognized as the first League of Legends world level champion in China. Because of this very memorable special moment, WE's team logo was also added to the League of Legends game, becoming the only team to receive this honor at that time.
Although the follow-up WE team has experienced too many changes, and the once classic five-person group has also disbanded, WE2.0 composed of Xi Ye, 957, brother-in-law and others still maintains the label of "strong team" of WE team. Especially in the 2017 season, when we return to the World Series again, you can still feel that they are still one of the most popular teams in the LPL.
The 2020 season is the season when WE officially opened the 3.0 era. However, it is interesting that although WE boldly launched new people at that time, through better operation and transfer transactions, the very young WE still has a good competitive strength in the LPL. Especially in the 2021 season, this seriously inexperienced young team is only one step away from returning to the global finals stage again. Also because this young WE3.0 is growing very fast, many people are looking forward to their breakthrough in the 2022 season.
Unfortunately, WE did not continue to implement their "five-year plan", in the winter transfer period of 2021, we's core players and the best performers in the 2021 season, Breathe, Elk, Missing have left, which greatly reduced the overall strength of WE. Although WE will use new players again in the 2022 season to make up for it, it is clear that "there is also a gap between newcomers", at least for now, WE has become the worst team in the LPL this season.
It is worth mentioning that as a former professional player of WE, 957 explained the whole game of WE yu RA, and when WE played poorly again and lost to the opponent, 957 said, "I am actually really fine, from another point of view, WE May be preparing for the summer game in advance." Although the 957 looks more optimistic on the surface, in fact, the 957 this season has also experienced too much torture and has long been looked down on.
Finally, I believe many people know that the vast majority of professional players' contracts are based on one season, which means that even if you come to the summer games, WE's current lineup will not change particularly obviously, just try more newcomers. In this case, the 2022 season may really be the most humiliating season in the history of the WE team.
Dear friends, what do you think?
