The old, cautious style that the Koreans maintain and that the US teams have long imitated seems no longer to work.
The Korean LoL style is based on farming cleanly, playing conservatively, acting cautiously, gaining a slight advantage, and then systematically defeating the opponent in crucial team fights with tactically clever play.
The new style, which is cultivated in China and Europe, is all about chaos. It focuses on early ganks, spectacular plays, a rapidly growing advantage that leads to completely overwhelming the opponent.
It is more of a hyper-aggressive LoL, as it is practiced in “Solo Queue” – but a style that works.
Many LoL games are now decided within the first 15 minutes through sudden tactics.
NA is seen here as a fierce tryhard region, while EU apparently has a lot of fun in the tournament.
The power is shifting in League of Legends
This is the situation in League of Legends: It seems that something is shifting in the balance of power, which was already evident at Worlds 2018.

In League of Legends there is a show match taking place. At the Rift Rivals, the best teams from North America compete against the best teams from Europe. And the result is quite a cataclysm on the side of the USA. However, the result looks close. The player Zven from Team Solo Mid, however, describes it as an eye-opener.
These teams are participating in the Rift Rivals 2019:
- For the USA and the LCS, Team Liquid, Team Solo Mid, and Cloud 9 are participating
- For Europe and the LEC, Fnatic, G2 eSports, and Origen are competing
This should be the crème de la crème of LoL outside of Asia. With Cloud 9, Fnatic, and G2 eSports, 3 of the 4 semi-finalists from Worlds 2018 are in the tournament. At the end of 2018 at the LoL-WM, Europe and North America shocked the rest of the world with a strong performance.
How are the Rift Rivals going? At the moment, it stands 6:3 for Europe. But the result is clearer than it seems.
Professionals and fans are quite disheartened on the side of North America.
League Fun vs. League Tryhard
This is troubling people: As the player Jesper “Zven” Svenningsen from the US team TSM says, the tournament is extremely one-sided in favor of the Europeans.
Apparently, the US team is playing with full force, while the European players are messing around, trolling with their picks, and generally seem to be goofing off rather than actually playing to win. Nevertheless, they are vastly superior.
It feels really bad to be crushed by teams like Origen and G2, says Zven. But this is now opening the eyes to how bad they are.
The games that Liquid and Cloud 9 win – the opponents were just rambling.
This is how it’s discussed on reddit: There it is viewed similarly (via reddit). Before the tournament, many fans of the NA league probably thought that teams like TSM were superior to the Europeans, but what they are seeing is just embarrassing.
The US teams urgently need to understand that the “old Korean” way of playing LoL no longer works, says one user.
