On the official forum of League of Legends, a new post caused a heated discussion.
The title of the post was,”live footage of Chen Mo playing League of Legends, Minotaur chief saving the dying and defrauding his teammates!”
Seeing this post, everyone’s first reaction was disbelief. After all, Chen Mo was the best Warcraft player in the country. He beat up all the top players in China and was even nicknad “muscle-craser.” How could soone like him cheat his teammates in League of Legends?
In the end, after watching the video, he realized that he had really screwed his teammates over!
“Hahaha, that’s amazing. What’s going on with S-God? why did he secretly go to an internet cafe to play gas? he was even photographed!”
“It’s indeed Chen Zhao from the back.”
“I’m dying of laughter. I thought that this guy was good at playing the ga, but the Blademaster was pushed to the side of his own card. It was so funny!”
“He’s really an ox that saves the dying and helps the wounded! I thought I was the only one who would make such a mistake!”
“No, this should be considered a great assist! The best sixth person!”
“I can’t believe that Chen Mo can’t play League of Legends well either. S-God is a fraud, hahahaha!”
“I feel like if I play with this bull, I can get a 5 for 0 in this teamfight!”
“It makes want to play League of Legends too. I think I can beat S-God!”
“I want to go play too! I can finally get back what I lost in Warcraft in League of Legends!”
......
Not only did the video beco a hot topic among the players of League of Legends, but players of other gas also knew about it.
Chen Mo had another nickna: [Rescue the dying and heal the wounded], salent.
……
In the experience store.
Chen Mo was speechless as he watched the video.
F * ck, I’m just ensuring the fairness of the ga. How is this saving the dying and healing the injured?
But at this ti, it was hard to explain, so he thought it was better to forget it. This video was also a hot topic, and it was equivalent to promoting League of Legends.
So far, the promotion of League of Legends had been very successful.
With the gaming platform’s promotion, internet advertisents, internet cafes, and so on, League of Legends ‘popularity rose to a very high level, sweeping through Chen Mo’s targeted player base like a wave.
Who was the target group of players for League of Legends?
The main target was the teenagers between the ages of 12 to 30, both in and out of school.
These people were passionate about online gas, but facing the pressure of school and work, most of them didn’t have much ti. At the sa ti, they preferred gas that tested their control.
One of the fatal problems of traditional mmorpgs was that they cost a lot of ti to play, and so of them even cost a lot of money. Players between the ages of 12 to 30 were either still in school or working. They didn’t have that much ti to play gas.
These players ‘financial ability was generally relatively weak, and many of them were free players. Gas like League of Legends, which didn’t cost money, guaranteed fairness, and allowed players to show off their skills, suited them very well.
Of course, there were also so rich and idle college dogs, but those people were in the minority. Even if they were University noobs, League of Legends was still attractive to them.
Therefore, Chen Mo’s strategy was targeted at internet cafes and university campuses. This was especially true for PC internet cafes, which were perfect for promoting League of Legends.
……
On the 10th of February, three days after League of Legends was released, Chen Mo released the statistics for the first day.
The number of players who logged in on the first day reached 390000, and the next day’s ga retention reached an insane 73%.
Of course, 390000 didn’t seem like a scary number in terms of Thunderbolt gaming platform’s active users. However, most of Thunderbolt gaming platform’s players were mobile gars (that was the case for the entire gaming market), and they liked gas like Onmyoji and anipop. The core PC players didn’t have an advantage.
However, this number was already very terrifying.
Diablo had only sold 280000 copies in the first week, and League of Legends didn’t have a grand opening cinematics or a fascinating plot yet. It wasn’t easy to attract so many players with just the crazy promotion and free gas.
Moreover, League of Legends was a completely new ga genre. Many players were confused after reading the ga description and did not have much motivation to download it on their PC. Therefore, it was a great success to get this number.
This number of players was enough to support the ga’s matchmaking system, ensuring that players of similar standards were matched together to play the ga, and trying to ensure that all players ‘winning rate was around 50%.
Although it was stupid to guarantee a 50% win rate at tis, it also guaranteed the gaming experience of most players to the maximum.
Emperor dynasty entertainnt and fantasy gaming platform couldn’t sit still after Chen Mo announced the numbers.
As professional video ga distributors, they knew what this number ant. It ant that League of Legends had the potential to beco a super popular ga. This number was already on par with so of the classic dominating gas, or even slightly better.
The only good news for Emperor dynasty and divine fantasy was that the players didn’t think too highly of League of Legends.
The current rating for League of Legends was around 8.4. It didn’t seem low, but the ratings for Warcraft and Diablo had never dropped below 9 when they were released.
From the player reviews, the ga didn’t seem to be a ‘godly’ piece of work.
Most of the players ‘comnts were “not bad,””I can play it,””new way of playing it,” and there were not many brainless comnts. Obviously, the gimmick of “a completely free and fair competition ga” played a key role in attracting players and pulling up the ratings.
There were also so players who were disappointed in the ga, including so of Chen Mo’s core players.
“I feel that the style is too cartoonish. There’s no sense of imrsion.”
“Chen Zhao has regressed, right? There’s no story mode, not even an opening cinematics?”
“Looking at the developnt ti, I feel like Chen Mo is up to sothing again. The old players of Warcraft aren’t used to this ga, maybe the less skilled players will like it.”
“I thought Chen Mo would make an official COG, but isn’t it a little too different from a cog? He changed Chen Mo’s style and his coolness has dropped by a lot!”
These reviews gave Emperor dynasty entertainnt a glimr of hope to turn the tables.
If League of Legends could achieve such a terrifying result, what would happen to COG?
