When it comes to the “spiciness” in delivering news reports, VTV24 is perhaps a media channel that is no stranger to the online community. Not only does it bring a youthful vibe to one of the central information channels, but VTV24 also knows how to catch trends and frequently posts related to popular games, including League of Legends. A prime example is the recent “Vietnamese word puzzle” where the station used an image of Rengar as the centerpiece of its post.
Recently, VTV24 continued to use League of Legends champions as illustrations for a post on the station’s fanpage. Specifically, the chosen champion this time is Twisted Fate. However, instead of being an entertaining piece of information like Rengar last time, this time, the Card Master was used to illustrate a case of… resisting law enforcement.
Nevertheless, VTV24’s post still attracted the attention of netizens, especially the League of Legends community. Most comments expressed delight at VTV24’s “spiciness” while joking that perhaps this Twisted Fate was holding red cards, which is why he attacked the police (red cards deal magic damage and slow targets). Additionally, some expressed admiration for the Vietnamese police force for being able to catch even Twisted Fate.
It can be seen that VTV24 continues to maintain its trend-catching ability and viewer appeal. While the post was about a rather unfortunate news item, the station’s relatable delivery will surely be positively received by the online community, especially gamers.
