One of my favorite dramas

For someone that plays LOL which i guess conquer game (the game in the drama) is based on I understood it easily and actually made me game again and made me enjoyed this drama so much that I wish it had more episodes. I watched go go squid and also my kings avatar (Havent finished but Im planning to) and I have to say Gank your heart is my favorite. Main leads have goals from the beginning and even though they have a rocky start together you see their friendship and then to love development which I enjoyed.All the characters got to grow and I mean all of them (except Miya but she is the worst) and enjoyed that cause the story develops in a way that all lose ends come together and have a closure weither is seperate or together.

Favorite characters :
Pei Xi
Loved how even though it has some clique tropes it also has some changes in character. Pei Xi character was definetly unnexpected and actually one of my favorite due to his growth and also true personality and I guarantee you , you will fall for him so quickly once you see how cute and adorable he is. When you see him you will smile right away.

Qiu Ying
I love her , the female lead is very loyal , gentle and very career focus to the point where not even once did she hesitate to leave Kong when she saw his attention towards her was lacking and a door for her career was open and love ,love, love it. Thats what ggs failed to give me and in this drama, the female lead just wants to achieve her dream and when a opportunity happens she goes for it.

Yi Yi
If you decide to watch this drama there are two options or you hate yi yi or you love her. YiYi is controlling to the female lead but in a a healthy way i would say. They explain that Qui Ying lost her mom and left her home due to family issues so at this point Qiu Ying family is her best friend. You see how much she worries , supports and loves Qiu Ying to the point that I wish I had her as a friend. I feel like YiYi became a motherish and best friend figure and thats why she worries so much because shes the one that will always be by Qiu Ying side and I love her so much for that.

Cons:

There are some lose ends in terms of one villain , in one episode someone tried to attach the female lead and it was addressed that one episode and after that it was never mentioned before which gave me a bitter taste. Wish they couldve addressed the problem properly.

It has alot of cliche scenarios but it didnt stop me , I feel like some dramas are done so well that clique moments become enjoyable instead of an eye roll and this drama did it for me.

It was okay at the beginning and then quite drama/politics and draggy till Ep 16. I skipped alot and start to watch seriously from Ep 16 - because that's more like starting the ML's direction towards his goal and FL's getting into more e-sports. and there's also where their relationship more focus.

I re-watched few times especially the scenes where they shared the earphone and look at each other! And the background music ~~~~ haha It's really nice to watch and I put this as my one of the top C-Drama that quite memorable to me. I really like how the storyline bits in the beginning and then Ep 16 onwards till the end. It shows how both leads slowly building up their dream career and from friendship to love relationship. Doesn't have typical kind of plot. Also towards the end, show how both leads get together as team to lead to victory. So basically it show quite well being friends, lovers, and work together. Very happy that accidentally came across this drama! As I thought e-sports genre mixed with romance, it's still kinda genre that I'd want to watch more even after Love O2O and Go Go Squid.

The rating could be higher but I remember how draggy when it comes certain scenes/issue that takes longer time/eps to resolve it.

Go, Go Squid is so much better

Halfway through watching this, I rewatched Go, Go Squid for the third time. I've watched Love O2O twice and both are much better than Gank Your Heart. ML had way too much unfair bad luck. The antagonists were very unlikeable (I feel like in a lot of Chinese dramas they aren't usually that bad and end up being good in the end, these were downright annoying). It was a good ending and there were inspiring parts (not enough) but I just felt it was painful to watch most of the show and will definitely not be rewatching it.

Seriously considering dropping this

So I am 6 episodes into this series and already I feel like I want to pull my hair out and virtually knock some common sense into these characters.

What annoys me the most is the way the wrote these characters to be completely senseless, ignorant and just plain stupid. Like stuff like this doesn't happen IRL. Like how do you not notice someone messing about on your PC and then not connect the dots as tho the fabricated footage that is released. Or how can you not suspect the manager for being up to something since in each episode he has deliberately tried screwing you over especially with all the smirking he does in the meetings (and as a president of the company... doesn't he find it suspicious that that this version of the recording is released just after discussing and who should be TL for the team?? like really now).

Each character is annoying in terms of just being so self absorbed and non nonsensical. I had high hopes but if things do not get better by episode 10 im dropping this series since right now my blood is boiling.

Only last episode ,I liked

Starting of the drama is good ,at very start they introduced the main character and their story but they had been taken 25 episodes to start the love story ,so because of this, story loose the connectivity. I like the sister and he brother story .
It has much similar story withGo Go Squid! But what's the difference that inGo Go Squid! ,Story and direction totally justified with the each character ,secondly everybody stick with the emotions as a player ,how player showed craze with the game and how felt bad when they loose the game ,and the passion of raising of once again but in this drama I really not found that much emotions . Secondly in Go Go Squid! ,They gave full space to love story but in this drama there was no such space . In this drama there was three love stories but they didn't give such space to each love story . Thirdly main character story didn't showed that he was too heartbroken with his first love ...and how he fell in love second time .
I am not satisfied with the story much ...

BEWARE OF THIRD WHEELER

in the beginning their interaction a bit dull but it improves greatly. but when they started to have a good relay, there we goes. always come nuisance ex but it relieves me because their is a good and happy one. so for anyone who's plan to watch this, you have to stay strong when you reach climax of the story for the better ending that you guys hope to watch.

HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP GOALS, GAMING AND TRUE FRIENDSHIP

The main point of this drama is that even if the entire world looks down on you, you can still achieve your dreams. Not only your loved one, but friends are always supporting and motivating you to go through.
I REALLY REALLY LOVED Wang Yibo as Ji Xian Kong here, even more than in The Untamed or Legend of Fei. He is a reserved, controlled, harsh boy at the beginning, and then thanks to friends and Qiu Ying he mellows ans it shows a very caring attitude, strong feeling and a strong passion.
This is the only e-sports drama that really stole my heart, thanks to Wang Yibo.
He is a natural leader, but never imposing or controlling. Yibo's acting is natural, perfect, and he has a lot in common with his character ( first of all, love for motorcycles).
Wang Zixuan as Qiu Ying was criticised a lot, but i loved her characters. She is a rather immature gurl at the beginning, strong but yet too submissive. She deals with every problems she has to fight, but she is not alone. I liked her strong-willed character and her growth in a very mature girl.
They boyt have a mature acting.
I want to highlight the relationship between Qiao Xin and Qi Yue. Yes, they are mostly annoying, but two negative characters that are able to support each other even in negative ways.
The cast is full of characters that you can't help but love. Xia Ling and his growth, Pei Xi, Summer-ge.
The plot is full of real topics, first of all the gaming setting. E-sports is developed like a real sport where the society have to buy them.
The series presents even a realistic development of working life, from gaming to reporters.
"The most burning adventure", the opening by Wang Yibo, is so catchy and so wonderful that you can't avoid it. I LOVED IT.
I cried a lot when Phoenix was founded, and at the ending. They were heartwarming scenes.
I loved it because it's a perfect mix between gaming scenes and relationships with character devlopment. Gaming scenes are set perfectly and not boring like in the majority of e-sports dramas.
The main leads struggle to achieve their dreams, but never give up and built a true love relationship and true friendship. This drama is not only gaming or only romance.
For me, it's the best e-sports drama hands down, and it's a pity that Wang Yibo is mostly knows because of The Untamed because of the popularity of the brand.
Yibo really shines in Gank your heart, and we can see a glance of the true Wang Yibo in Ji Xian Kong.
PHOENIX FOREVER

Their first meeting was a disaster but their love is sweet. This line almost sold it for me.

It was in the description that their first meeting was a disaster but their love is sweet. This line almost sold it for me.

But I decided to drop the show by around episode 7 or 8. Nothing happened still, nothing but their disastrous meeting. I don't like ML who's almost cruel to FL no matter the instances.

I have nothing to say regarding the FL, there's not much of her story yet. Slow phased almost to the point of laziness. Actors were new faces to me, but it was OK. OST is also good. Maybe its just not for me. Re watch opportunity is not possible seeing that I dropped the show.

Don't let this drama pass you by!

Started watching this because of Wang Yibo after The Untamed and I must say that It's one of the BEST Asian Dramas I've watched in a long time.
I can't understand why I don't see more of this drama on social media. I admire the Friendship, Teamwork and Romance depicted in it.
Yibo's acting is just mind-blowing, really in Love with him.
All the actors and actresses are also good at acting. They all did fantastic job.
I recommend this so much! I just can’t get over it!!
This gonna be my favorite C-drama of all time after The Untamed.
Watching each episode thrice.

Passione per l'E-sport

Questa serie mi ha fatto appassionare all'E-Sport e alla lingua cinese. Consiglio di vederla in lingua originale.
Oltre allo sfondo sportivo che è di mio gradimento è anche la storia d'amore presente nel drama, molto emotiva e accompagnata in modo perfetto dall'OST. Storia ben costruita e anche il cast ha trasmesso in maniera impeccabile i sentiemnti dei personaggi. Fin ora rappresenta una delle mie serie cinesi preferite.
La Phoneix rimane nel mio cuore.

Почему стоит смотреть?

Вполне легкая, ненавязчивая дорамка. При просмотре сможете проникнуться духом киберспорта и поймете, что это не просто «играть в игрушки», а реальная работа в которой так же нужно ебошить) Последняя серия — достойное завершение сериала, оставляет приятное послевкусие от просмотренного.
Главная героиня не тупая)
