In professional matches, players need to be serious. But in private ranked games, do players relax and have fun, or do they give it their all to win? Faker is a legendary figure in League of Legends. His high achievements are not due to luck, but rather to the chemistry and trust of his teammates. However, his mentality is the key.
Sunny was reported by Faker for his negative attitude towards the game.
If you're thinking of giving up and letting that affect your subsequent actions, then continuing the game is pointless because you've already decided to lose from the start, wasting time. LPL players have never had a good reputation, and being reported by the famous Faker for teaming up—I wonder what they'll think? This incident has sparked online discussions about the competitive attitude of professional players, and unfortunately, Qingtian happens to be the main character.
He played Aatrox in ranked matches, and during high-intensity games, he was frequently solo-killed, which was frustrating. So he started to get emotional and urged his teammates to surrender to vent their anger. This behavior not only disrespected the game but also affected his teammates' mood. When he encountered a meticulous player like Faker, he ultimately chose to report him. All his passive play and messing up of the game crossed the line.
Professional ethics have been amplified and hotly debated.
Normally, being reported in a game might only result in a deduction of reputation points, but players could face fines, bans, and account suspensions. However, Qingtian still chose to complain about the unfairness of his heavy punishment during a live stream, seemingly without reflecting on the core issue. He admitted that he wasn't acting and that he genuinely played poorly. Do you think that's acceptable? Even if he made a mistake in ranked matches, his attitude towards the game set a bad example. As a public figure, this is easily magnified and could affect his future career.
As the incident escalated, the discussion shifted away from Qingtian himself. Without comparison, there's no harm done; viewers began to re-examine the professionalism of the two major regions. Why has the LCK region achieved such success and become an industry benchmark? It's because of their never-say-die competitive attitude, which earns them public respect. It's not about being able to lose; passive-aggressive behavior is intolerable. Ultimately, League of Legends is a team game that emphasizes cooperation, not one-man show. It's not a solo game. A ranked match exposed Qingtian's true colors, and all players should learn from this and use it as an opportunity for reflection.
