You can be cool, but you will never be Korean Baseball league Champion Execution Sword cool!
Yup, the koreans really crafted a giant hell-bending sword to represent the trophy when the NC Dinos won the championship in 2020.
“The Korean Baseball Organization champs are the NC Dinos — so named because Guild Wars publisher NCSoft established and owns the team. Today the Dinos celebrated their 4–2 Korean Series triumph over the Doosan Bears as only their team could — with an enormous prop sword from NCSoft’s Lineage MMO franchise.
According to Sung Min Kim, an American sports writer formerly of The Athletic and currently in the front office of the KBO’s Lotte Giants, that there is the Execution Sword (집행검). It’s basically the game’s most powerful item.”
I think its awesome. It represents the ability to be visionary, forward-thinking and sets trends. It not only has the chance to bring in audiences from both the online and offline world, it creates virality, celebrates sportsmanship like no other and attracts a new kind of audience for their brand.
Whoever thought of it deserves a raise. Its exciting, got me curious and come on, who hasn’t dream of waving a giant sword in front of thousands in absolute frenzy especially after winning the top honors of the baseball world in Korea?
Perhaps next year we can King Arthur’s Sword or Zeus’ Thunderbolt please?
