STATE OF PLAY: RISE OF THE KING is the second documentary installment on professional gaming in South-Korea. It tells the story of Jong-Hyeon Jeong, better known as IM-MVP, and chronicles his transformation from a troubled Starcraft: Broodwar player with the Woongjin Stars team to one of the most successful Pro-Gamers in eSports history. You can check out the trailer at Vimeo.

The Jaedong State of Play is already one of my favorite esports documentaries of all time and the bonus documentary about digital worlds was also quiet enjoyable. So glad I paid a bit more back then so I'll also receive this MVP documentary! Gonna be great to get some background knowledge on IM and his wrist issues. | ||

What I was missing was a slightly different perspective on our hero. Something like the family segments from the first movie. | ||

It would be the price one would pay for a movie at the theatre, and it allows you to download (own) the movies, which can then be shown to friends. What is wrong with having the initial people who want to buy the movie pay a reasonable price and then have the movie spread organically from there? Seems okay to me. | ||

To me, the two State of Plays are easily among the best eSports documentaries I have ever watched (and I watched like 15 by now). This one is on par with the Smash one, and since to me the TI1 one was somewhat meh given the huge focus on 1 Million Dollars, the Na'vi guys backstory and not even close to enough focus on the actual tournament itself, I'd easily put this over Free to Play. The price should be higher though, this is some really excellent work. | ||

Yeah i pretty much agree with all of this, except that i liked the first state of play a little bit more cause it had the sidestories aswell. | ||

Totally worth it I was crying by the end. The documentary follows 3 stories in Korea; Jaedong, a n amateur, and a young semi pro later accomplishing his goal as a pro on woojin stars. Totally worth 15$ and an hour of your time  | ||

Really shows you a lot about the life of each player involved. Pretty sure the mvp one will be worth a watch too. | ||
