After the transfer period of League of Legends 202 1 ended, WBG team ushered in the return of Snake and Theshy, together with the wild player SofM in the team, WBG was a "three foreign aid lineup". (Theshy is Korean aid, SofM is Vietnamese aid, and Snake is registered in China, Taiwan Province Province, China).
In order to give full play to the strength of the team, WBG initiated the process of transporting foreign aid players to the mainland. In the end, the official announcement of WBG was officially approved by League of Legends, and the application for local player qualification of League of Legends Professional League (LPL) submitted by wild player SofM of WBG League of Legends was successfully approved. SofM's LPL local player status came into effect.
① 20 1 August 61has been on the official list of LPL league;
② He has lived in Chinese mainland for 48 months or more in the past 72 months (from the time when the player first participated in LPL, LSPL, LDL or global finals).
Besides, only by obtaining Chinese mainland citizenship can you become a local player.
SofM came to LPL from June, 2065438 to June, 2006. Moreover, SofM has not returned to China in recent years because of the epidemic, so it has more than enough time in China, which meets the requirements of transferring local players.
Before SofM, only two LPL foreign AIDS were successfully turned into local players, namely Sandoin, the champion of S9, and the mountain scout, the champion of S 1 1. FPX once sent Gimgoon, Khan and Doinb to participate in the competition because of Lwx's illness. EDG also replaced the factory director with Jia Jun, and was present at the same time with Scout and Viper. If nothing unexpected happens, WBG will also use SofM's local player identity to send Theshy and Snake at the same time.
However, considering that there is a rule that local players must be in LPL before August 20 16 1 day, foreign AIDS who meet this condition are basically veterans at the end of their careers. It can be predicted that it will be difficult to transfer more foreign aid to LPL local players in the future. After all, it is even more difficult to transfer local players by acquiring China nationality. SofM is the third local enterprise of LPL and may be the last one.
