Riot Games refers to Gen.G using “they” instead of mentioning the team by name
https://reurl.cc/EQnL4n
Controversy has erupted in the League of Legends ecosystem surrounding publisher
Riot Games. Following Gen.G’s triumphant victory over T1 at the Mid-Season Inv
itational, Riot updated the League of Legends client as usual with an image of t
he winning team and a short congratulatory message. However, this time, instead
of naming Gen.G, the message simply read “They win…,” a wording that both the
organization and many fans found disrespectful.
在Gen.G於季中邀請賽擊敗T1奪冠後，拳頭如往常一樣在遊戲客戶端上更新了冠軍隊伍的圖
片及簡短的祝賀詞
然而這一次，祝賀訊息中卻沒有提到Gen.G的隊名，只簡單地寫道：「他們贏了……」（"Th
ey win…"），這種寫法被Gen.G及許多粉絲認為是對冠軍隊伍的極大不敬與輕視

In response, Arnold Hur, the Co-President and COO of Gen.G, called out Riot Game
s on his X account before reacting humorously by changing his profile picture—k
eeping the Gen.G logo but replacing the name with “Them.G.”
對此事件，Gen.G的共同總裁兼營運長Arnold Hur在他的 X帳號上公開點名拳頭，並以幽默
的方式做出回應 —— 他更換了個人頭像，雖然仍保留Gen.G的標誌，但將隊名改成了「The
m.G」，藉此諷刺祝賀詞中的「They win...」
Fans also expressed frustration over the situation, particularly regarding how l
ong it took Riot to update the message, and the fact that in some language versi
ons of the client, the team’s name still didn’t appear, on the English client,
for example, Gen.G's name was added.
許多粉絲對此也感到不滿，特別是對拳頭修正所花費的時間過長感到失望，此外，即使在英
文版客戶端中最終補上了Gen.G的名字，但仍有部分語言版本仍未顯示隊伍名稱，讓玩家更
加憤怒
Reaction from the Gen.G executive
Gen.G管理層的回應
Lee Ji-Hoon, the director of Gen.G Esports, also spoke out about the situation,
stating that the team immediately contacted Riot upon arriving in Riyadh for the
Esports World Cup to report the issue. Riot explained that it was a translation
error depending on the region and apologized, assuring that they had taken the
necessary steps to fix it. Ji-Hoon ended by shifting focus to the team’s next c
hallenge—the EWC—which they intend to add to their trophy cabinet, while ensur
ing the players remain in good condition.
Gen.G總監Lee Ji-Hoon也對此事件發聲，他表示戰隊一抵達利雅德準備參加電競世界盃時，
就立即聯絡拳頭反映問題
拳頭方面回應稱這是因地區翻譯所導致的錯誤，並已致歉，保證已採取必要措施進行修正，
Lee Ji-Hoon最後也強調，現在戰隊的重心已轉向即將登場的電競世界盃，他們希望再添一
座獎盃，同時確保選手們保持最佳狀態
