@shyeokitty Every sport is essentially a business. A player like [Guma] skyrockets his worth with a three-peat and an MVP award, meaning many organizations will pay him more. That's the reality in any sport: once you have the titles, you are playing only for financial gains.
@Reptile9LoL@Drututt saying worlds is an inside job is like saying your favorite player or team that is competing is deceiving you and dont care about you while you are cheering for them, so who's the fool? ๐
@chovyracha No one's hating him It's a free online slander, Welcome to the internet, do you think how much faker have that in a decade? that's normal you just hurt, we are used to it. until he doesn't have that championship ring he was still irrelevant to the ones who have it, that's sport.
@Tsukikikikiii@tttttyuc That's ok, because it reflects the mentality of Korean players to be truly relevant or highly regarded, you need to earn the highest title possible.
@AngelCwop@tttttyuc That is why some Chovy's fans are seen as delusional. they fail to acknowledge the fundamental Korean mentality that domestic or MSI titles are insignificant without a World Championship win to validate a player's rating or legacy.
@tttttyuc Even BDD understands it for Korean players, the mentality is that it doesn't matter how many games you win in the LCK or how many MSI titles you secure if you don't win Worlds, it amounts to nothing.
@KMTLoL7 The nature of every sport dictates that the biggest international tournament holds the highest significance. For an athlete, failing to win that title, trophy or "ring" often results in 90 to 95% of people considering them irrelevant when compared to those who have achieved it.
