Hello! I'm happy to announce XXII Open Cup: Grand Prix of EDG, which will be held on Nov 14th, 2021.
This contest is mainly prepared by Zhejiang University, which has already been used as the 2021 CCPC Guilin Contest.
On the same day of the 2021 CCPC Guilin Contest, Team Edward Gaming (EDG) from League of Legends Pro League (LPL, China) won the Champion of the 2021 League of Legends World Championship held in Reykjavík. They are also the only LPL team entering the semi-finals while the rest of three teams all coming from League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK, Korea), including the champion from last year. Almost nobody would bet on their winning, but they made it and reclaim the glory for LPL after 2 years.
Team EDG has been doubted for a long time because their performance in the World Championship is usually very struggled and disappointing. However, they never give up their dream. Their brave heart and the strong will push them go forward. Now they make the history. Their spirit moves everyone and their legend lasts forever.
As well as contestants, problem setters are also deeply touched by their victory. Their spirit inspires us. In competitive programming, it is the same spirit that drives us improve ourselves, challenging problems and enjoying every contest.
Therefore, we decide to call this contest as the GP of EDG.
