Former FMVP of the World Championship causes outrage with “reverse” record
The Demacia Cup 2024 is quite a special tournament as it takes place right after a noisy transfer period in the LPL. Many LPL teams have brought notable rookies to this tournament and have showcased impressive performances. Among them, TES has emerged as a true powerhouse as they defeated both IG and TT to reach the finals of the tournament. Meanwhile, the recently departed player from TES, FMVP of the World Championship 2019 – Tian, has delivered a disappointing and contrasting performance.
Specifically, Tian’s WBG recently lost to AL with a score of 1-3 despite being highly rated with many stars. According to statistics from the tournament, Tian currently holds a KDA of 4/20/28 and has become the player with the most deaths at the Demacia Cup 2024. These statistics are truly disheartening for Tian, who was expected to be the star “carrying” WBG in the new season.
Therefore, immediately after the match between WBG and AL ended, a wave of criticism arose within the LPL audience, with the focal point being Tian. Many believe that the FMVP of the World Championship 2019 is now the “burden” of WBG, and Tian is predicted to lead this team to failure in the upcoming season. Some opinions even suggest that with such terrible performances, the former FMVP – Tian has reached his limit, and retirement is the best option for him.
FMVP of the World Championship – Tian is likely to continue finishing “empty-handed” next season
When mentioning Tian, many fans immediately recall his outstanding performance in the FPX jersey at the 2019 World Championship. This was a tournament where Tian truly flourished with agile and high-damage assassin champions like Qiyana and Lee Sin. Therefore, his winning the FMVP of the World Championship that year was a well-deserved reward. However, it is unfortunate for Tian that this remains the closest major title he has won while playing for FPX. Even after moving to play for TES, he has completely finished “empty-handed” in both the LPL and international stages.
And the hope for a title for FMVP of the World Championship 2019 – Tian becomes smaller as both he and the WBG team currently show poor performance at the recent Demacia Cup 2024. Meanwhile, names like TES, BLG, and IG have all made incredibly quality additions during the recent transfer period, raising the competitiveness of the LPL to extremely high levels. If there is no improvement in performance or playstyle, it is likely that Tian will face another “empty-handed” season ahead.
