Of course, at this time, there will definitely be players who will put forward the views of "e-sports, food is the original sin", "rookies should work hard to surpass the gods one day" and so on.

That's fine, but it should only be used for self-encouragement, not for asking for others.

You've been abused, and you've worked hard to practice your skills, and there's nothing wrong with abusing you back. But if your girlfriend is playing too badly and getting abused, you say "esports dishes are the original sin" at this time, and you see if the two of you break up.

The king player is the player.

Bronze players are also players.

For most handicapped players, manipulation and reaction are innate, and no matter how hard you practice, you can't change it.

Both types of players are equally important to designers, as they are both essential and important components of the overall in-game ecosystem.

Simplifying the game will allow more fishpond players to join and stay, so this game has a larger number of players than other games, which is the core competitiveness of the game.

As for high-end players?

As long as the player base goes up, there will always be high-end players. The relationship between the two is not antagonistic, and high-end players all crawl out of the fishpond players.

And what are the consequences of the depletion of the fishpond?

For example, if the entire League of Legends bronze rank has lost a large number of players, then the bronze player will be ranked for a longer time, or if he encounters many silver players, he will be less and less likely to win, and he will be abused all the time, and over time he can only get out of the pit.

This will further exacerbate player churn, and when there are fewer and fewer players in the bronze group, it will start to be the turn of the silver and gold groups......

The depletion of the fishpond will cause a series of chain reactions, which will collapse the entire competitive ecology from the bottom up, and this player churn will be faster and faster, which is a nightmare for competitive games.

Part of the reason for the decline in the popularity of "Overwatch" in Chen Mo's previous life is here.

Originally, the threshold of buyout fees and computer configuration has stuck many players on the sidelines, and the player base is far inferior to "League of Legends", and the problems of the game mechanics and ranking mechanism have caused the popularity of fried fish ponds, and various factors have combined to cause a large number of players to get out of the pit, and the popularity has also declined.

Of course, there is also the phenomenon of exploding fish ponds in DOTA and "League of Legends", but DOTA has many die-hard fans and a stable player base, while "League of Legends" has a fish pond that is deep enough to blow up the water even if you blow it up.

But what if the player base is not enough?

I'm afraid that even the best game will be cool.

……

After a lot of effort, Wen Lingwei and Chang Xiuya finally completed the novice training.

After completing the beginner training, a dedicated interface pops up on the screen as a system prompt, as well as a very beautiful treasure chest.

"Congratulations on completing the beginner training and getting a small gift from the Valoran Continent, please click to open."

Jia Peng was a little surprised: "Huh? Reward for completing a beginner's training? ”

Jia Peng clicked on the treasure chest, a golden light flashed, and several rewards appeared on the screen.

New Skin: [Death Knight] Galen

Currency: 4,500 bonds, 10,000 gold.

Guardian (Eye) Skin: Moe Snowman Guard.

This is not the end, Jia Peng just clicked to confirm to accept these rewards, and a new interface appeared.

"As a League of Legends Season 1 player, we have a small gift for you. Note: This reward will be out of print after the end of Season 1 and will not be available through regular means. ”

Jia Peng clicked the mouse and found that it was another skin!

New Skin: [Dragon Stalker] Wayne

Jia Peng was not calm all of a sudden,, so many good things?

Obviously, although Jia Peng didn't know the value of these things, he recognized the words, and he recognized the purple [epic] icon on these two skins.

In addition, 4,500 bonds, which can only be obtained by recharging in the game.

Jia Peng hurriedly entered the [Collection] to check the reward he had just obtained.

Different from the "League of Legends" in his previous life, Chen Mo has added hero models in both the game store and the player's collection interface, where players can not only see the original picture of the hero's skin, but also see its real model.

It's not difficult to do at all, after all, even a mobile game like "Honor of Kings" has already done this.

Of course, some models of "League of Legends" in the previous life are more spicy, but the quality of the various models of "League of Legends" made by Chen Mo is already very high, and there is no problem when you zoom in on the camera.

[Death Knight] Galen's style is completely different from the original skin, wearing dark armor, his eyes are shining with a cold light, and the great sword in his hand has also turned into the appearance of frost sorrow.

In Chen Mo's previous life, this skin was a bit of the popularity of Warcraft, because there was no IP, and he didn't dare to be too similar to Arthas. But there is no such problem here in Chen Mo, because the entire IP of Warcraft is in his hands, and he can use it casually.

This Galen's skin was made to be extremely similar to Arthas, which made Jia Peng very excited.

[Dragon Stalker] Vayne is actually rubbing off on the popularity of Warcraft, and this name was originally the name of the hunter suit in "World of Warcraft". Of course, there is no "World of Warcraft" in this world, but as a relatively successful skin, Chen Mo still moved it out.

As for the skin of that eye, it's just a little snowman, it's an additive, nothing special.

Jia Peng took a look at the recharge interface again, 4,500 bonds are equivalent to 45 yuan, and the value of 10,000 gold coins cannot be estimated for the time being.

He looked around the mall and found that these bonds could buy a mid-priced skin, and the gold was only enough to buy some junk guard (eye) skins and summoner avatars.

Jia Peng comforted himself: "Hmm...... Anyway, these skins don't affect combat effectiveness, and it's the same whether you buy them or not. ”

……

For the entire reward system, Chen Mo has considered it.

League of Legends players in the previous life could earn gold coins by playing every day, and the main role of gold coins was to buy heroes and runes.

Although there are many problems with this, there are also benefits, many players enjoy the process of saving gold coins to buy heroes and runes, which is equivalent to opening the game content step by step, so that players can cherish their accounts (wealth).

In fact, it's the same reason that some card games retain players by giving away good cards.

Chen Mo canceled the fees for heroes and runes out of fairness, but also considered other ways to achieve this reward.

Both the currency of bonds and gold will remain, and players will still be able to earn gold by playing games, winning their first day of the day, completing missions, etc., although the specific purpose of gold has changed slightly.
