Although it still has the attention of League of Legends gamers, Garena has attracted attention from the community in a not very positive way.
“As a habit”, every time a new series of skins is released in League of Legends, Riot Games often reveals accompanying events in the hope of increasing sales. Garena too, the publisher of LoL VN also regularly makes content about new skins to “stimulate” and increase profits from new skins.
However, Garena’s content team does not always create “standard” content that pleases the LoL gaming community. Typically, recently, when making content to promote a new skin line, Hong Tan Phai for general Elise, Garena’s video content made a fundamental mistake in League of Legends.
An image in the promotional video for Elise Hong Tan Phai of LoL Vietnam.
More specifically, through the caption “Someone else playing Elise in URF looks so good, but in the hands of my friend, something happens to him, it’s so strange, everyone”, the video focuses on humorous content about Elise swinging E skill continuously in URF annoys the opponent.
However, Warwick’s mana bar accidentally “betrayed” Garena, because in URF mode, the generals using skills do not consume mana. So the fact that the video was made from Gym mode (to help Elise use E continuously) was pointed out by the gaming community. Among them, there are many comments criticizing, “throwing” Garena “face down” because of this content.
A series of comments criticized the content about Elise, especially the detail that Warwick lost energy.
A series of hateful comments about Elise’s content covered LoL VN’s post.
On the contrary, there are also gamers who defended Garena and said that this video is 99% to promote the costume, so it is not necessary to refute such details. But another gamer came in and made a rather harsh comment: “If you don’t do it, don’t do it, if you don’t come to be cursed, you will accept it yourself, not resist.”
Although it is not known if this video will affect sales of Elise Hong Tan Phai skins or not, it is currently receiving many negative comments from the League of Legends community.
