The KPL Spring Split has been hotly contested recently. Did you watch the matchup between AG Super Play Club and Wolves? After the version update, the French-core lineup has emerged, and the mid laner's rhythm control has become more and more critical. The tactical game brought about by this version change can actually be found in SLG games.
I have been playing "Three Kingdoms" recently, and I just happened to catch up with the big version update on April 27th. The newly added SP Liu Bei's skill changes are very subtle, a bit like hero adjustments in e-sports - it seems like numerical adjustments, but in fact it affects the rhythm of the entire battlefield. The new gameplay "Dragon Escape" also adds a random event mechanism, which makes alliance battles a little more uncertain. This is quite similar to the excitement of players making on-the-spot decisions in professional competitions.
To be honest, many people now feel that SLG does not deserve to be called e-sports, but I think strategy gaming itself is the highest level of competition. When thousands of people are attacking and defending on the same screen, the coordination of the leader's scheduling and the execution of the members is not inferior to the tacit understanding of team battles in MOBA. There is also a "Lucky Puzzle" activity in the game. The official adjusts the balance of generals regularly, just like e-sports version updates, forcing players to develop new playing styles.
If you are a friend who likes to delve into tactics, you can try this game. The benefits for newcomers are quite real. You can directly use the redemption code sg888 to receive the top red generals, sg777 and sg999, and a 648 gift pack. But I recommend you to watch the alliance battle in the novice stage first, that is the real "brain KPL" 😂
If you have any suggestions - I hope the official can make PVP recordings from the OB perspective in the future to facilitate review of tactics. It would be great if we could learn from LPL game broadcasts. After all, a good competitive game must also have a good viewing experience.
