It feels like everybody understands the game more on a fundamental level. RIght now, things feel more textbook, where everybody on the server received a quick 30 minute coaching session. Maybe this also has to do with how I also improved since then, but before, everything inside the KR solo queue felt messy and nonsensical. The only thing close to that is this tiny little corner store that’s even smaller than your regular-sized convenience store in Korea.īased on your last time in Korea + the small sample size of games that you played in Korea this time, how does the gameplay compare? You can’t even get delivery in my village. Two days ago, I ordered a coffee, a burrito, and a sandwich through a delivery app for 13,000 KRW, and to see it arrive in less than 20 minutes was mind blowing. I live in a village with like 300 people, so Korea feels very otherworldly. I live in a very rural area in Switzerland. I’ve been streaming for around 5-7 hours a day, going out to get food, meeting people, drinking coffee living the good life. We’re basically just two complete idiots chilling in Korea at the moment. I looked around to find a friend to come with, so I ended up coming here with a long-time friend of mine. How did you plan your trip to Korea differently this time around? I also came here alone, because I wanted to experience what it’s like living independently, since I wanted to live with my girlfriend at the time. Outside of the game, I still really enjoyed the food compared to Switzerland, everything is a lot cheaper in Korea, so the price difference on everything was really nice.
In KR, players actually bought Mobis and just stopped playing. Sure they talk shit, where a guy that’s frustrated with the game says, “Fuck it, I’m buying Mobis and running it”. In EUW, it’s not like every game is winnable, but they keep playing. Players gave up really easily, and they just decided not to play the game. If he can’t get out of Masters, how the fuck am I was going to ? Solo queue itself at the time was also really hard, where even a player like Faker was stuck in Masters with 250 games played in that season.
Playing 14 games a day made me go… Insane. I’d stream 10 hours a day for close to four months. When I was here last time, my focus was only on the grind. That’s when I got a lot of exposure in the scene, and growth in view count.Īs far as I know, this isn’t your first time in Korea. My other big break would be around two years ago, when I made this in-depth Vladimir guide and posted it on Reddit. Ever since I came to Korea, my viewer count has been growing quite a bit. When would you say you had the biggest break as a streamer? I found a strat that I can abuse every game, so while I don’t think I was REALLY a Challenger player, I still hit Challenger. I was the most cheesy player on the planet. I will say that I got Challenger through the so-called ‘cheese strats’.
The streaming turned out to be very successful, so many years later, here I am in Korea.Īround season 7 was when I first hit Challenger in League of Legends. Halfway through the apprenticeship, I decided to stream and see where things go, so I had to balance the studies and the streaming. However, my parents did tell me that I need to study, so I did an IT apprenticeship and got my diploma. What I mean by that is that you don't necessarily have to play League to enjoy League I try to provide a safe space for people to enjoy League through my gameplay.Įver since I was five years old, I wanted to make money by playing video games. I’m also a streamer, and I’d say that my stream is a place for the homies to chill in chat. If I am to describe myself as a personality, I’d say that I primarily see myself as a high-elo League player. My name is Calvin, also known as Elite500. Please introduce yourself to our readers. He recently traveled back to Korea for the second time, and I had a chance to have an intimate conversation about the game, and his return to Korea. He’s a Challenger player from Europe that climbed to the top of the ladder on a champion called Vladimir. The next person in this ongoing saga of interviews is ‘Elite500’.

In the beginning of my journey as a storyteller in the esports journalism space, I wrote a guide called “ A bootcamper’s guide to Korea: How to be efficient in the city that never sleeps.” Since then, I’ve interviewed all the different people that traveled to Korea to play solo queue.

League streamers and pro players from all around the world all hope to travel to Korea for all sorts of reasons, but in the end, it involves playing solo queue in Korea, as the public perception of the server in Korea is that the quality is above any other servers around the world. Traveling to Korea to play League of Legends on the Korean server isn’t a new concept within the space.
