Recently, a blogger broke the news that the main reason why there are many familiar faces of KPL in KGL is because the KPL commentary has now increased the assessment items, and it is very strict, and it is precisely because there are more unqualified people, so many commentators choose to switch, but thinking of last year's Asian Games and the World Championship KIC, this examination system seems to have become reasonable.
The main reason why KPL will add strict examination items is that it wants to make the game Honor of Kings available to the world, so that more people can access the game of Honor of Kings, whether it is adults or minors of appropriate age. At the beginning of this year, the KPL announced that it would increase the total prize money of the KPL in 2024, open major multinational competitions, and invest a lot of money in cultivating foreign game talents.
The origin of all this has to start with last year's Asian Games and the World Championship KIC. In fact, the KPL applied to the Asian Games and the Olympic Games to add e-sports items a few years ago, but because there is still a big gap between e-sports and traditional sports competitions in form, under the pressure of **, it was not until last year that the Asian Games took e-sports as a competitive event, and the KPL also successfully won the 48th gold medal for my country.
Subsequently, the world championship KIC, because the popularity of the Glory of Kings in foreign countries is not high, so there are not many countries that come to compete that can be the opponents of KPL players, of course, they themselves know this, so in order to balance the fairness of the game, the Glory of Kings has to be combined with a popular game abroad to compete, and it is stipulated in the rules that a hero of a foreign game must be selected for each game.
But even so, the team that can go to the end is still occupied by the KPL team, so the official is also fully aware that if you want to make the game bigger and stronger, you must increase the popularity rate of foreign countries, so that more foreign players can join the glory of kings, which not only improves the audience's best experience, but also allows the game to get a more long-term and lasting development.
After that, the official put forward hard requirements for the commentary, especially in the Asian Games, after all, this is a live broadcast of cotton bells across the country, and the commentary can't say a lot of game terms when commenting passionately, such as killing must be said to be defeated, skills must be named, equipment must also be named, not "nickname", of course, there are many precautions, but this alone has been "crazy" many commentaries.
Personal opinion: For veteran players of Honor of Kings, those "nicknames" have been imprinted in their minds, and it is very difficult to change suddenly, so KPL will make a very strict assessment system to subtly improve the quality of the commentators. The main reason why KPL will do this is because it wants to face the glory of kings to the whole country and the world, which can not only increase the audience's best experience, but also make the game develop for a long time.
