Chapter 325: Chapter 324-new high for active players

Chen Mo and Li jingsi played together for another five days, from the second to the sixth. Starting from Platinum v, they had more than ten consecutive wins every day, dominating the stairway tree.

When many players encountered these two IDs in a ranked match, their first reaction would be to take a photo with them. As for the competition, it was hard to win anyway, so they would just leave it to fate.

Chen Mo’s League of Legends was slightly different from the ranking system in his previous life, mainly in terms of ranking points. The player’s performance in the game would also have a comprehensive evaluation, and if the player’s stats were significantly higher than the average of the score, then they would be matched against equally strong opponents, and the ranking would increase after winning.

This was similar to the ladder in Warcraft. The higher you went, the easier it was to meet strong opponents. If you won all the matches, you would get extra points, and your ranking would rise faster than in his previous life.

Chen Mo and Li jingsi’s ranking skyrocketed after winning all their matches in the past few days. They finally reached the top of the ladder on the night of the sixth day of Chinese New Year, becoming the first two greatest Kings to appear in the National server.

Although there were many other players who were trying their best to rank, they couldn’t maintain a winning streak like Chen Mo. At most, they would reach the diamond rank. However, it shouldn’t be long before there were players who reached the master rank and entered the ranks of the greatest Kings.

While Chen Mo was streaming, League of Legends continued to gain popularity. Chen Mo’s stream reached a peak of 2.09 million viewers, which was more than many big streamers on fish-catching streaming platforms.

During the livestream, Chen Mo played almost all the carry Champions. He even played some of the more classic Champions like Ryze, Katarina, cardsharp, Gragas, etc., To show the players the advanced skills of these Champions, such as Ryze’s combo, Gragas’s geometric barrel, etc.

Chen Mo’s livestreaming had created a wave among the players, and videos of his livestreaming had been posted on various forums, quickly becoming the most discussed topic during the new year.

“Who saw Chen Mo’s jungler, Gragas? I’m so shocked. You can play hero like this? E-skill first, then flash, and you can even use your ultimate to blast the opponent’s hero back to your Q-skill and kill him instantly?”

“Ryze’s is also a classic. That combo really dazzled my eyes. All kinds of spiritual driving, and the Golden Cicada shell shedding technique. It’s so bright!”

“Carter’s kill was the best. Two Penta kills, right? I was shocked when I watched the stream. How did this hero deal so much damage to Chen Mo? I feel like it’s completely unreasonable!”

“There’s also Phoenix’s instant kill. After RE-firing, the opposing team’s C spot directly melted!”

“That Alistar support is the scariest. He’s been going through all sorts of unreasonable tower attacks, and he couldn’t even move after using a Big Shot. He went all the way to the bottom lane with Vayne, who said Chen Mo was saving the dying? Fake information, drag him out and beat him to death!”

In the process of switching to League of Legends, many uploaders on video websites had been making tutorial videos to teach the Champions some skills in League of Legends. However, after Chen Mo’s ranked match video was released, these uploaders all stopped making tutorial videos, because they realized that their tutorial videos were nothing compared to Chen Mo’s video.

A lot of UP Masters noticed that Chen Mo’s ranked match wasn’t explained, so they explained it to him, which further promoted the spread of the video.

As the players continued to research and spread the story, more and more players became familiar with some of the classic hero routines. Everyone stopped complaining about how weak some heroes were. It was obvious that all of them were strong in Chen Mo’s hands.

However, Chen Mo didn’t stream anymore after that, as he had already achieved his goal of teaching.

A lot of players were sending Chen Mo private messages or messages on Weibo, hoping that he would continue streaming, even if it was just an hour a day, but Chen Mo ignored them all.

The popularity of League of Legends had continued to rise, and the players had accepted the new game mode of ranking matches. Everything was on track, and it was time to move on to the next stage of work.

……

During the battle revelry on the 21st and 22nd, the number of active players in League of Legends reached a new high, breaking the two million mark.

This number was already unbelievable for a PC game.

There were quite a few games with two million daily active users, but most of them were popular mobile games, and some of them were fake.

The difference between League of Legends and other games was that it was a PC game with a high player retention rate of more than 70%. As the player base spread, the fish pond would become deeper and deeper. The gaming experience of new players would become better and better, and the number could still increase.

For many popular mobile games, it would be good if their popularity could last for a year. It was extremely rare to see one that lasted for two years, and active users came and went quickly.

However, League of Legends was completely different. Due to its high user stickiness, its players would continue to accumulate, and its popularity would continue to rise exponentially. Eventually, it would become a trend that would sweep across the entire PC market.

A lot of people thought that it was unbelievable that League of Legends could maintain such a strong growth momentum, but what they didn’t expect was that it was just the beginning.

……

On the first day after the spring Festival holiday, many gaming companies immediately held meetings.

During the spring Festival, some professionals in charge of game reviews and data analysis had been informed by their bosses to analyze League of Legends. Many of them had to work overtime in the last few days of the Spring Festival holiday to make sure that they could submit the relevant analysis materials to the meeting for everyone to discuss on the first day of work after the holiday.

The continued popularity of League of Legends had created a trend in the domestic game industry, and almost all the designers were analyzing the success of the game.

Some people were just impressed by how fast League of Legends spread, and were impressed by Chen Mo’s marketing.

However, some people realized the hidden message behind this: Could it be that the spring of PC games was coming?

Before this, the PC market was being suppressed by both mobile and casual games, while adventure and heavy games were being suppressed by VR. They could only rely on RTS games and mmorpgs to survive.

However, League of Legends had a completely different meaning. It was a type of game that was very suitable for PC, and whether it was the number of players, the depth of the game, or the profitability, it seemed to be very strong!

In other words, it had the potential to rule the entire PC market.

It was only now that many people realized that this new game type had such terrifying power.
