LPL's top ten low-scoring players list sparked heated discussion: TES mid laner ranked first, JKL was also on the list

June 20th news, with the MSI Mid-Season Championship about to kick off in a week, the major teams in the LPL region have also started a new round of transfer operations. During this period of time, a list of the "Top Ten Low-scoring LPL Players" from the forum has become the focus of heated discussion in the community.

It is reported that this list is based on the average post-match ratings of the players and coaches by the audience after each game in the second stage. Surprisingly, the TES team, which ranked first in the regular season, had two players selected for the " lowest rating list " , among which the mid laner Crème ranked first, and the bottom laner JKL ranked tenth.

The TES team, which performed strongly in the LPL regular season , should have a high overall score. However, Crème and JKL both made the list, which inevitably makes people question the rationality behind the scoring mechanism. In this regard, some analysts pointed out that the main reasons can be attributed to two points: first, the actual performance of the two players in some games was indeed not good, which naturally affected the scores; second, even in the games where TES won, the two failed to gain recognition from the audience, which is closely related to the personal image of the players and the public opinion environment in the competition area.

Especially after the Pioneer Game, the audience's overall favorability towards the team dropped significantly due to TES's disappointing overall performance. Even though TES achieved good results in the subsequent LPL regular season, some viewers still had subjective emotions and gave their players a " low emotional rating " . Crème frequently practiced Tsar but the effect was not good, while JKL was under greater public pressure due to his high popularity, which ultimately led to the continued low scores of the double C in the audience scoring system.

In addition, there are other names worth noting on the list. For example, FPX 's mid laner Care and WE's top laner Cube . Although FPX and WE performed well in the second stage, the ratings of these two players were not ideal. Care's early performance was sluggish and he was often ridiculed on social platforms; and Cube was affected by the label of " e-sports deserter " . Even though his performance gradually improved later, his rating was still difficult to catch up with other stable players.

These examples also reflect another problem with the LPL scoring system: a player's initial performance is too far from the audience's expectations, which will have a serious impact on their subsequent overall ratings. The audience's expectations of the players are different, and if the performance of a star player declines slightly, he or she will be more likely to be criticized. This " expectation backlash effect " also makes it difficult for some truly talented players to get their due place in the scoring list.
