Must watch S1 and S2 for Zhou Keyu! Addictive competition and hilarious personalities
If you’re even remotely curious about We Are the Champions Season 2 (战至巅峰2), I genuinely recommend giving it a shot. I knew NOTHING about eSports or Honor of Kings, and just was curious because Into1 was in season one and Zhou keyu is in both seasons. I liked Zhou Keyu after Sniper Butterfly and started watching his variety shows. His personality is sooo funny and cute, and he's super good at this game!! It's so cool to watch him compete, lead a team, interact with friends etc. if you're a fan of keyu or want to learn more about his personality, definitely this show!! But I would start with season one! For Season one, I only watched his parts and his team's matches. They are amazing.
Season 2 is really addictive!! it’s way more gripping than “a celebrity esports show” has any right to be. What makes this season so fun is that it doesn’t just show matches; it shows the whole process of building a team: the drafting, the training, the clashes in personality, the pressure, the strategy, and the emotional meltdowns and breakthroughs along the way. We also get to know the coaches from season 1. Gemini was Into1 (keyu's team from season 1)'s coach and keyu and him became close. The Gemini vs Jiuzhe camp format is especially addictive because you get to watch two completely different coaching styles shape their teams in real time. I absolutely love both coaches and their friendly, hilarious rivalry lol!
Even if you know nothing about Honor of Kings, it’s still incredibly watchable because the real hook is the teamwork and growth arc. You see players go from awkward strangers and chaotic solo plays to slowly learning communication, trust, leadership, and how to fight as a unit. And if you like underdog stories, emotional highs and lows, and watching someone gradually grow into a leader under pressure, Season 2 is such a satisfying watch. I started it for Zhou keyu only and ended up fully stressed over drafts, team fights, and whether they were about to throw a huge lead, which is how you know the show got me! I even download Honor of Kings to play with friends! Now I'm watching season one to four, one after the other!
