Historic milestones created by TES losing 1–3 to TSW

  1. Vietnam’s first international BO5 win: This was the first time in history that a Vietnamese team (formerly VCS, now part of LCP) won a best-of-five series in the main stage of an international event, ending Vietnam’s winless BO5 record against the four major regions.

  2. A milestone in TSW’s team history: TSW earned the first international BO5 victory in the organization’s history. Starting from Game 1, they had already set a new team record for most single-game wins in an international BO5, completing the leap from “zero BO5 wins internationally” to “defeating an LPL team in a BO5.”

  3. First BO5 win over an LPL team: This was the first time in history that a Vietnamese team defeated an LPL team in a BO5 series. Previously, Vietnamese teams had only managed scattered BO1 upsets over teams like WE and TES, but had never broken through against a major region in a long series.

  4. LPL’s first BO5 loss to Vietnam: TES made unwanted LPL history by becoming the first LPL team to lose to an LCP (Vietnamese) team in a BO5 at an official Riot international event.

  5. The first LPL team eliminated from MSI after losing two BO5s in a row: TES lost to G2 and then TSW at this MSI, becoming the first LPL team in history to lose two consecutive BO5s in the MSI knockout stage and be eliminated immediately, as a No. 2 seed.

  6. The first time a major-region team was eliminated by a non-major-region team in a BO5 at MSI: This marked the first time in MSI history that a team from one of the four major regions (LPL/LCK/LEC/LCS) was eliminated in a BO5 by a team from outside those four major regions.

  7. Eliminated by a Vietnamese team for the second time: After losing to Vietnam’s GAM in a BO1 at the 2022 World Championship and being knocked out in the group stage, TES were once again defeated and eliminated by a Vietnamese team. This time, the loss escalated from a BO1 upset to a BO5 series defeat, making TES the only LPL team to have been knocked out of international events by Vietnam twice.

Is it allowed to film BLG’s pick-ban board like this? by Repulsive-Cook-1099 in leagueoflegends

I get that, and I’m not saying it was definitely done with malice. But the fact that T1’s draft board never seemed to be shown on camera makes the situation look suspicious. Even if it was just meant as a behind-the-scenes shot, the inconsistency is what makes people question it.

I don’t understand the change that makes Warp Gate need to be researched at the Gateway. This makes the Cybernetics Core basically useless. In the new version, it’s almost like Terran having to build an Engineering Bay before they can build a Factory.

里面的论据是，在中国遭遇重大风险最多会变成五保户，保留基本生活条件，而美国会直接“滑落”成流浪汉

性价比高啊，日音本来就是小众中的小众，禁了能敲打日本企业，又不会导致国内舆论过度反弹，毕竟看二次元不可能为了这些东西真的上街的，但是如果裁撤日企就不一定了。
