(Motherland) - The League of Legends (LoL) community is buzzing with rumors that LPL players may face restrictions on playing Genshin Impact during broadcasts.
In the League of Legends (LoL) community, the game Genshin Impact is becoming increasingly familiar, especially after DRX emerged as the champions of the 2022 World Championship. Specifically, Support player BeryL is known to be a devoted player of Genshin Impact. In fact, DRX players are even willing to cancel some schedules with the team to fully devote themselves to their favorite game.
Already renowned, thanks to BeryL's 'advertisement,' Genshin Impact has gained even more popularity, especially among professional players. Many famous names in the LoL scene have shown a heightened interest in Genshin Impact, such as Keria, Doinb, Rookie... Some of these players even play Genshin Impact during live streams, further exciting the audience.
However, according to the LPL community, there are rumors that Tencent has begun to take action. On the live streams of players like Doinb and Rookie, there is no longer any information related to Genshin Impact. This is quite regrettable, especially as many viewers believe that playing Genshin Impact is a way for players to entertain themselves and relieve stress after tense moments of competition and training.
But sources also note that Tencent only prohibits LPL players from playing games in the HoYoverse series during live broadcasts. This is not uncommon. Not long ago, Tencent also banned Doinb's LBL self-organized tournament, believing it affected LoL viewership on broadcasting platforms in the LPL region.
However, LPL players are not completely prohibited from playing Genshin Impact. It's just that LPL fans may find it challenging to see their idols trying their luck with Genshin Impact in the future.
