In the LPL Summer Playoffs 2021, Suning lost 2-3 to LNG Esports, ending their hopes of participating in the 2021 World Championship here. This unfortunate defeat left many fans of Suning, particularly SofM’s fans in Vietnam, feeling quite disappointed.
To entertain fans while the whole team cannot compete, Suning has collaborated with Skyworth to launch a series teaching fans how to play their favorite champions in League of Legends. The first character on the show will be Bin, featuring his Camille that made waves at the 2020 World Championship.
After the first episode of this “tutoring” series was released, many fans found it quite interesting and are eagerly looking forward to the “curriculums” from the other members, especially seeing SofM guide on some jungle champion. Since SofM is a rather quiet player and streamer, few can fully grasp the thoughts of the “LPL jungle god” while watching him rank up, so seeing SofM jungle himself and explain his gameplay will be a valuable “lesson” for junglers at all ranks around the world.
Not only that, in the past SofM created a trend and record for jungle farming with Lee Sin that many players, from casual to professional, could only shake their heads in defeat. Therefore, if SofM releases any “curriculum,” it is highly likely that the LPL community will see a resurgence of trends and related challenges, and the League of Legends community will again enjoy interesting content surrounding this topic.
Moreover, when it comes to “teaching experience,” SofM also possesses the most extensive experience, having once “taught” student Manh An in the fun tutoring series of VETV, back when he competed in the VCS.
Although the playstyle of professional players is often dissected and analyzed in great detail, having the “source” share small tips in gameplay remains an incredibly valuable experience. Even commentator Manh An was amazed when SofM shared detailed insights on calculating the spawn time of jungle camps and how to complete the jungle route the fastest – a skill that cannot be learned just by watching streams, tournaments, or listening to external analyses.
For this reason, Suning’s “teaching” series is receiving quite a lot of positive feedback from the gaming community, mainly to look forward to the teaching debut of “tutor” SofM – who is dubbed the professor of LPL in the wild monster clearing specialty.
