Boring & overrated!
7+ is overrated! This series is boring and I kept skipping some parts. Although I still love Yang Yang. Maggie Jiang's acting is lame and flat. I think the only saving grace is the presence of Yang Yang although it didn't help much. The story is like a work of an intern with an average grade. It did't captivate me. The only reason why I reached episode 26 is because I skip most parts of the story. Even then it took me more than 3 months now to reach this episode - it is this uninteresting. There is a lot of insignificant and dull dialogue, the story is too ordinary without climax. I am greatly disappointed because I had high expectations.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

i liked it!!
i have never seen such gaming dramas.i was aout to drop it but as i went on watching and as i started understanding abt i was hooked.
ye xiu(yang yang) was really a master in it. he was really very clever and had a very good knowledge of situations in the game and outside the game.
the caste was amazing.i liked every character and the friendship it was showed in it.
i just wanted to have a romantic angle in it atleaast in the end. because there were 3 girls and i wanted to know that who is the one which suits the ML but its still fine as it showed a proffession.
now as at the end i understood every part of the game i want to see a season 2 to get a good and better ending.

Fine
I watched this drama solely because of the male lead. I was aware that the story revolved around video game players and their struggles, depicting how they cope and strive to achieve their goals. However, throughout the entire drama, it seemed like all they did was play, focusing solely on perfecting their strategies and gameplay. This repetitive focus made it quite tedious to watch. There was a certain element missing that failed to captivate my interest. Overall, it was a disappointment and not something I would recommend.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Yang Yang as e-sports gaming idol
Perfect e-sports drama conveying the feeling of playing with a new e-sports gaming team starting from almost scratch.Yang Yang playing veteran gamer Ye Xiu and his team, friends and foes are excellent. Friendship and dedication, dishonest competitors who try every underhanded ploy to destruct the sapling guild XingXin, and upright opponents that stay frends outside the game, but no romance, no kissing.
This adaptation makes me want to perhaps also read the webnovel it is based upon. (There is a donghua about the story too, but I have not checked it out yet).
Production includes excellent game animation which illustrate the Glory gamers' view that "Glory is their world", even if staying with it could be short-lived.
The music is addictive, although the OST only has four songs.
Worth rewarching.

fast-paced and energetic pop-culture series
the series is suitable for younger audiences from about 10 years old to 30+ years old age group familiar with anime, manga, online games, pop culture, and activities involving sports-like teamwork. this series revolves around the struggles, efforts, friendships, and reconciliation of the past and present of the main protagonist whose career path spans 10+ years as a professional esports player. one key thing about this series is the focus on the present moment, reconciliating the past with the present, and how that affects the near future that will become a present moment.this series also tell the stories of struggles, efforts, and friendships of many other supporting players mainly in relation with the main protagonist. the series blends life acting with CGIs, and it consistently enriches the CGI stories with fast paced dialogues that are generally written well, and also energetic comments by the commentators/players/audience. it has a relatively fast paced stories and plots that deal a lot with personal decisions, social support/motivation/encouragement, overcoming obstacles, trusts, jealousy/envy, camaraderie, and hope and faith.
i was initially hesitant whether i want to start watching this series because i had the mindset that i might be sorely disappointed if the series fail to deliver a balanced good stories, good performances and balanced CGIs. but in the end, i am glad that i overcome my hesitance. another mindset that i had when i started watching this series is that there might be a romantic and romance competition/betrayal kind of plots in the series. but there were not. and that is a real welcome for a CDrama.
i think the director, the screen writer/s and the CGI team/s did a dedicatedly excellent job trying to balance the real life acting with the dialogues and the CGI actions. the CGIs felt complimentary to the real life acting. the quality of the CGIs is good, and the way the dialogues and how/where the CGIs are used to tell stories in the virtual setting are also good. this is also in part enhanced by the energetic and fitting background music/sound/noises. one of the strengths in this series is the arrangement/selection/editing of the background music/sound/noises.
the costumes/hair-style in this series are inspired in part by manga and in part by modern and pop culture. the props, set design/structure, and environment are definitely urban and current. it is a good thing that the series as a whole does not attempt to introduce futuristic mumbo-jumbos.
another thing i really like about this series is that the producer/director/screenwriters do not attempt to make this series about good versus evil, or about nasty characters. they do the characters as human and as humane as possible -- with shortcomings and strengths, but most importantly with the capacity and ability to overcome shortcomings and become a better person.
criticisms:
the actors acting are not all excellent and consistent. many of the supporting actors acting are mediocre and unconvincing. a few of the supporting characters can be annoying and unconvincing at times. sometimes there are scenes when the set or the ways the set are captured can feel a bit bland and off. i feel that some characters could have been given even stronger/better plots, dialogues and character developments, for example, Su Mucheng, Guo Guo, Luo Ji. somewhere in this series, internet addiction is mentioned very briefly. i think this is a real concerning issue that is intentionally ignored or not focused on by the director/editors/screenwriters.

Love it
The story is awesome, the acting is awesome, the music is awesome. I watched this series some years ago, but only found this site not so long ago, so recording all my watched series.I actually came to watch this because I really love Yang Yang's acting. The show is quite awesome - in my opinion - and the storyline is cool. Although the total episodes is abit long, but the action is there. This is one of the really few series I have watched without any romance element inside it except a world of gaming and competitiveness. The entire cast did a great job bringing this series to life. I would say Yang Yang is even more interesting in this series, especially when I only found out later that he plays twins.
The OST for this series is fantastic! I love every single song in this series. I would say it was paired beautifully.

Glory is the way to live
This was a wonderful drama. I usually avoid watching Chinese dramas but this had an interesting synopsis so I caved…. And I couldn’t be happier. This was definitely not a waste of time and honestly thought the series is so long at no point did I feel compelled to watch simply because I had started watching.The plot lines and character development is tip top. My one critique is that Ye Xiu was a bit of a Gary Stu, a little too perfect, and we never really in the first 30 episodes see him doubtful or have any negative emotions- but what was unexpected about it was even so, Yang Yang as Ye Xiu was probably my favourite character. I loved him on screen.
Tang Rou was a nicely developed character, as was Wei Chen. Personally disliked An Wengyi’s character plot line, but I adored the show.
I wonder how much the show spent on visual effects, because they were marvellously good somehow, it was easy to tell the difference between all the player’s avatars, not just by their clothes, but even the facial features resembled the actor counterparts.
Sun Xiang, the primary ‘antagonist’ was a little over dramatic in the start, but I loved how he developed as well.
Some people may find the drama cheesy, but I loved it and am looking for more of the same.
I did like the ending, and honestly could watch more of this show, for at least another season.

WATCH THE ANIMATION
My review will be the shortest i've ever written, as i dropped this drama and still don't understand how it could get such a good rating. I started this title because of all the hype around it. It disappointed me in everything; Characters are all exaggerated, sense of humour that isn't funny, lack of acting .... etc, etc.The ratings on MDL aren't fair and most of them are probably for Yang Yang only. The title got hyped because of the novel/animation and Yang Yang. If it was for another actor, i believe ratings will be less biased.
To me this drama isn't worth the hype nor your time. If you want to watch King's avatar story, watch the animation.
If you want to watch a c-drama about gamers and romance, i'd recommend you to watch Falling Into Your Smile - it is another caliber !

Heads down to the most amazing drama
I don't have words to describe this series..My emotions are still raw after watching it for 3rd time on repeat.This is the best and way underrated series of Mainland China.
Story is nothing spectacular when you watch this drama..it is just related to an esport where a guy's journey is shown from a scratch after achieving the most glorious title of the game. Due to his old friend he has to start from zero again but what a spectacular journey it was.
It is not only a journey for him but all those newbies who chose him to be their leader.
This story is all about compassion, team leadership, empathy, strong mindset, respect towards each other, trust and choices.
Everybody made their choices and they worked hard to achieve the goal for the choice they made.
Not only story tells us about team building, but also it teaches us to respect each and every opponent and instead of using mockery when other looses the game, just make a way so that party who lost the game continue to soar their spirits and become better in next challenge.
This story is all about healthy competition and the challenges we have to face in every corner.
OST was the best. Each and every character whether virtual or real was justified and did a perfect job.
Overall I can rewatch this again and again and I will bever get tired of it. Applauses to all the actors, storywriter, director and other staff who managed to produce such an amazing series.
