RNG coach – KenZhu had a long letter to share the situation of the whole team at MSI 2022 as well as express his frustration.
As you know, on May 13 (Vietnam time), Riot made a controversial decision. Specifically, this NPH side, as BTC MSI 2022, has decided to cancel all the results of Royal Never Give Up and replay all 3 first leg matches of the LPL representative. Besides, Riot will also adjust the configuration so that the matches are at the correct ping 35 that this NPH sets for the tournament.
The ping delay incident was responded to throughout 3 days of competition in the first leg of the MSI 2022 group stage, but it was not until the teams were about to enter the second leg series that Riot handled it. And so, RNG as well as the teams in the same group must immediately prepare to fight back. And Riot was fiercely criticized for its extremely cumbersome moves.
And on the evening of May 13 (Vietnam time), RNG coach KenZhu had a rather long letter to share his feelings about the story. At the same time, in the letter, the coach of RNG also revealed information about how all members of the team must implement isolation. And how did Riot’s announcement affect the whole team?
Specifically, according to coach KenZhu revealed, all members of RNG had to continuously take COVID-19 tests at 8, 9 am, including the players – who stayed up until 3 4 am to practice. In addition, according to this coach, they could not set up training sessions because they were not allowed to enter the engine room. And according to coach KenZhu, the team tried to accept all of this as well as show the most professional spirit.
However, the former coach of EDward Gaming also said that RNG was treated unfairly. Because, the ping error has appeared for a long time, but it was not until the end of the first leg that Riot handled it and was close to the game time of the second leg. Even, he only learned about Riot forcing a rematch about 2 hours before the first second leg of RNG.
It can be said that Riot’s decisions so far on the case of RNG are extremely cumbersome and have a lot of unreasonable points. However, perhaps teams must also try to handle and present the most professional attitude possible. The only thing that can be said is that RNG is in a difficult position. Because, regardless of their results at the moment, they can become a reason for the League of Legends community to attack. More deeply, it can affect the psychology of the players in the upcoming tournaments.
