League of Legends Classic is gradually losing its appeal to gamers

In the lively atmosphere of League of Legends in Vietnam, where millions of gamers still spend hours each day to conquer glory, a new mode called LoL Classic has unexpectedly become the focus of criticism. Many players share on forums that after the initial excitement with the combination of nostalgia and exploration opportunities, they are gradually drifting away from this mode. A Vietnamese gamer named Minh Anh, 28, living in Ho Chi Minh City, said: 'I was fascinated by LoL Classic because I thought I would play old versions again. But now everything seems missing. Every time I try a match, I feel it's not right.' Minh Anh's story is not solitary. According to heated discussions in the community, hundreds of gamers have registered accounts and then canceled activation due to increasing dissatisfaction. This hook is not just a personal story, but reflects a broader trend in the Vietnamese gaming community, where esports is not only entertainment but also a bridge between childhood memories and future career development. In the context of Vietnam's strong rise in esports with leagues like VCS, PUBG Mobile and Liên Quân Mobile, the decline in LoL Classic's appeal could impact the overall ecosystem. Event organizers and sponsors may need to adjust strategies if participation numbers are unstable. This is the time to look deeper into the core issue: LoL Classic is not just a game mode, but a strategic product in the Vietnamese gaming industry, where the imbalance between initial hype and operational reality is becoming evident.
