A detail on Gen.G's 2024 World Cup jersey makes many viewers unhappy.

Gen.G released the Worlds 2024 costume with controversial details

As usual, League of Legends teams will have their own costumes for the international tournaments they attend during the year, especially at Worlds. Furthermore, it seems that in 2024, many teams have begun to pay attention to the "spiritual" element, so many teams have switched to the 2024 World Championship outfit with white as the main color. Even the world's top tier teams like Bilibili Gaming, T1 or Gen.G are no exception. But recently, Gen.G's 2024 World Championship skin was just released, causing a fierce controversy in the League of Legends community because of a special detail on the shirt.

Gen.G at Worlds 2024 also chose white outfits

Specifically, on Gen.G's official jacket at Worlds 2024, this team has one more option for those who want to own it, namely 2 stars in the form of a shirt pin. However, it is the content on these two stars that is noteworthy. Accordingly, the two stars will symbolize the two championships Samsung Galaxy won in 2014 and 2017.

However, they also released a star-shaped lapel pin and above is information about SSG's previous World Championships.

However, it is this additional detail that causes controversy because for the League of Legends community, the two championships in both years were SSG's, but for Gen.G's shirt star, the 2017 championship was won. Name this team. Meanwhile, the name Gen.G has only appeared since March 2018 and before that, KsV Esports only acquired SSG after Worlds 2017 ended.

The community debated when Gen.G nominated this team's name for the 2017 championship while it was not until 2018 that the name Gen.G appeared.

The core story of "Gen.G's 2 World Championships"

In fact, Riot may have also recognized Gen.G's two championships after KsV acquired this brand and changed its name to Gen.G in 2018. However, until now, no one can Respond in an official document from Riot to this issue. Therefore, for public opinion, SSG's two championships are still SSG's. But COO Gen.G himself also spoke up to confirm that this team can absolutely put stars on their shirts and have in-kind trophies, but they will not do so until they officially win a World Championship.

The audience thinks that Gen.G has no problem with stars, but the important thing is that they deny the achievements of SSG 2017.

The community itself does not completely deny Riot's recognition, but the issue of Gen.G printing the team name for the 2017 championship is really a very confusing move. Controversy arose when the community thought that in that position should still be SSG, not Gen.G - the team that, until SSG lifted the championship trophy, did not exist. There are even opinions that printing information like this also denies SSG's achievements and existence in the history of League of Legends and this is the reason why the community is extremely upset.
