In the preliminary round, which involved a total of 32 players from eight clubs, newcomers are trying to write new e-sports fun, such as beating existing strong players or coming up with various strategies. It is characterized by the introduction of a franchise system to strengthen league expertise, an individual game-oriented game method, and a draft system that competes with opponents and uses players in real time.
The preliminary round was played in a total of 40 games, including the winner and loser groups, with an average of about 50,000 simultaneous viewers. In particular, the performance of newcomers who played in the regular league for the first time was explosive in viewers. Go Won-jae 'Wonder08', the youngest player to participate in the tournament at the age of 16, defeated last year's league winner 'JM'Kim Jung-min, and 17-year-old 'UTA' Lee Ji-hwan also wrote a twist to defeat the strong favorite 'Chan' Park Chan-hwa.
In addition, the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games 'FC Online' Silver Medalist 'JUBJUB'Panasak struggled to advance to the round of 16 by losing one match and winning the loser group match. On the other hand, bronze medalist Kwak Jun-hyuk lost to Kwon Chang-hwan in the final round and suffered a setback in the round of 16.
Nexon, which hosts the competition, said that the participants used a variety of strategies and tactics that even users of 'FC Online' could be surprised by, and they also increased their desire to play the game as well as the fun of watching. He also emphasized that individual players can see different personal skills by setting their players and formations according to their own strategies, and that the draft system that selects their players by looking at the opponent's players in real time also added to the beauty.
