As a gamer and a fun of C-Dramas, this was a must watch for me. Honestly though I had no expectations, or to be exact I've read a few reviews from male gamers and was already looking at it in a bad light. On the contrary though, after starting watching it, on the first few episodes I already knew I would fall in love.

The casting is mainly full of younger actors which was actually refreshing since the E-sports scene is mainly full of young adults.
I liked how through the story of Tong Yao we get to not only see a beautiful love story blossom but also see the reality and the darkest parts of the E-sports. How ugly fans can be, how people think Pro E-sports players are just young kids who like to game, etc. In that regard they did great at portraying all those ugly and beautiful truths.

I loved the chemistry between Cheng Xiao and Xu Kai. Also this drama is gonna feel all your needs for kiss scenes (lol so many asian dramas even forget of including one scene, this is not gonna be the case here)

I do believe the story started becoming a bit repetitive from a moment on, they could have delayed a few escalations, or actually given us some extra sub-characters deepen story moments, instead of having the same repetitive motives.

Also lets not forget how great the games graphic were! Honestly though as a gamer the only annoying thing was that they were playing a game that exists only for mobiles, in a computer (lol) of course they were kind of portraying the league of legends tournaments etc. Just probably were collaborating with the Onmyouji Arena(or whatever this other game is called oopsie).

Still for me it is highly on my rewatch list. I enjoyed it and made me feel the butterflies many times.
