Chapter 451 Competing with SKT?

Next is the mid-lane position, Faker VS BDD.

Lee Sang-hyuk's data is pretty good, at least excellent in the mid-lane position.

Of course, it must be considered that if teammates are very powerful, it will affect some of his data, so this data cannot represent his true role.

The score is 9.5 points, and the following evaluation is:

"Legend is in full swing!"

Seeing this evaluation, Xiaohuasheng's saliva is about to flow out: "Wow! This evaluation is too high, Top Esports legendary mid-lane Faker the devil!"

Lee Sang-hyuk's mouth was slightly smiling, and he was obviously very happy.

As for the opponent BDD, he got a score of 7.0, and the following evaluation was:

"After all, it's just a little Faker."

LCK is now promoting him as Faker's successor, that is, the so-called little Faker.

Now he really became a "little" Faker, and he will never be as good as Faker.

Continue to look down, ADC position, Gala VS Pray.

Gala got a score of 9.0, which surprised Chen Yiqiu.

After all, many people were dissatisfied with Gala's performance before, and even had prejudices. They wanted to scold Gala whenever they saw him. In fact, many opinions are unreasonable.

It seems that Gala has proved himself this time.

The following comments can prove this point:

"He really flew in!"

This should be saying that when Gala played Kaisa, he was very daring. As an ADC, he would even be the first to enter the field to attract fire.

The score of the opposite Pray was only 6.5, and the evaluation was also very real:

"Is there a gap in the ADC of LCK?"

Chen Yiqiu thought about it and it seemed to make sense. Now that LCK has no Bae Junzhi, the bottom lane has only a Ruler who has not grown up yet and a Deft who has not entered the second spring.

As for Pray, he is already an "old guy".

This time, he lost to Gala again at MSI, which really gave people a feeling that there are not many people in the ADC position of LCK.

Chen Yiqiu continued to look down, the auxiliary position, Crisp VS GorillA.

Liu Qingsong got a score of 8.5 this time, while GorillA got a score of 6.0, which was completely compared.

Chen Yiqiu had just finished watching when Guo Hao came up and said, "Are you all ready? Let's celebrate together. We are the champions tonight!"

So everyone in Top Esports got up and took their personal belongings to attend the celebration banquet together.

On the way, Chen Yiqiu received a message of congratulations from Jin Min-wo, congratulating him on winning the championship.

On the other side, the LCK situation suddenly changed!

First, KZ was madly complained by LCK fans:

[KZ swam back! Which airline dares to send them back? I firmly resist! ]

[I have rented two vans. I will go to the gate of their base to denounce! ]

[They can't even win a single game. How did they package it before the game? Why is there such a big difference? ]

[I really thought they could win, but now I find that I was cheated! ]

[If the advertising fee was used to retain SKT's mid, top and jungle, it would never be like this. ]

[All LCK leaders should apologize! ]

[Why didn't anyone come out to take responsibility for this matter! Someone must be responsible! 】

Now LCK fans are furious, they feel they have been cheated.

Previously, SKT's mid, top, jungle and ADC, four positions left LCK. In order to reduce the impact, LCK officials led the rhythm online, saying that their departure would not affect LCK's dominance. LCK's dominance comes from a scientific training system and system, which cannot be affected by the flow of talents.

However, now they are slapped in the face and find that it is really not possible without these SKT people.

LCK's top management held a meeting overnight, calling the coaches and managers of major clubs to discuss solutions.

On the other side, Top Esports was already celebrating in the hotel box.

Chen Yiqiu found that Xiaohuasheng was not right, and he seemed to have some ideas but was embarrassed to say them.

So Chen Yiqiu asked:

"Wanghu, tell me what you think."

Little Peanut muttered: "Well... I see everyone is very happy, and there will be no competition for more than half a month, so I wonder if I can drink some wine..."

Chen Yiqiu understood that it was because he was addicted to alcohol. Little Peanut really liked to drink, and the old SKT people knew it.

Chen Yiqiu looked at the manager Guo Hao, and Guo Hao said: "This question, everyone decides for themselves. In principle, as professional players, you should not drink, but today is so happy, and there will be no need to play games in the future, so you can consider drinking a little."

So Little Peanut immediately called the waiter over, and persuaded Chen Yiqiu and Li Xianghe again, and Chen Yiqiu and Li Xianghe finally agreed to drink a little.

If they were willing, the others would naturally follow suit.

"Cheers!" Little Peanut was so happy that he stood up and toasted with everyone.

After a few glasses of wine, everyone talked more.

Guo Hao stood up with his glass in hand and said, "Everyone, listen to me for a moment. I'll take up a little of your time."

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Guo Hao.

Guo Hao continued: "I am very honored to be the manager of Team Taobo and to be able to form such a legendary team. To be honest, I was quite nervous at the beginning..."

Guo Hao looked at Chen Yiqiu and Li Sang Hyuk and continued:

"At that time, there was a big problem within the LPL. SKT won the championship at home. The Internet was wailing. The morale in the competition area was sluggish. A large number of players said they wanted to quit the game and cancel their attention to the LPL."

"It feels like it happened just yesterday. Really, it was so scary at that time. It felt like the entire competition area was about to collapse. Then I received an order from the boss to form a team. If I hadn't met you three, I would have had you." Joining, I can’t imagine how I can accomplish my current goal and win the MSI championship.”

Guo Hao said, bowed, and continued: "Thank you for supporting me. I'd like to toast you."

Chen Yiqiu, Li Sanghe and Xiao Huahua were flattered. Unexpectedly, Guo Hao showed his true feelings. The three of them clinked glasses with Guo Hao and drank it all in one gulp.

Guo Hao wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, then smiled and said: "Now that the MSI championship has been won, our next goal is to win the S championship. In fact, I didn't dare to think so much at the beginning."

"It feels like winning a league championship would be great, but now it's you who have given me the courage to dream! I hope everyone will continue to work hard and work together!"

Hongmi, who was sitting next to him, applauded Guo Hao, and others also followed suit.

Hongmi said: "As a coach, I have learned a lot from Chen Sheng and the Big Devil. We can make progress together. I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future and achieve the goal of winning the championship together."

Everyone in Taobo is enjoying themselves. Although they have been working and living together in the past few months, they can't say how deep their relationship is. They just go to work. Now that they have won the championship and have a meal together, the feeling is different.

Suddenly, Hongmi looked at Chen Wei and Liu Qingsong and said: "As for the bottom lane, I know that whether it is online comments or various data, there is a gap between the middle and top junglers, but I can see your talent."

"It only takes time to practice and you will definitely grow into a world-class player."

Chen Wei smiled shyly after hearing this, while Liu Qingsong was relatively calm.

At this moment, Chen Yiqiu's cell phone rang. He picked it up and took a look at it, and found that it was Pei Junzhi who had posted in the SKT group:

"Congratulations to Taobo for winning the 2018 MSI championship! Congratulations to Reaper for winning FMVP!"

Immediately afterwards, Li Zaiwan also posted:

"Congratulations everyone, congratulations!"

To Chen Yiqiu's surprise, coach Kkoma also bubbled up: "Congratulations, I'm proud of you."

After Coach Kkoma appeared, Little Peanut joined the chat: "Coach, long time no see. Let's go have a drink together when we return to China."

Chen Yiqiu smiled. Normally, if a player asks the coach for a drink, that is called treason and touching the tiger's butt. However, the little peanut is not from SKT now. If he is naughty like this, Kkoma can't do anything to him.

Kkoma said in a teasing tone: "Wanghu, your performance now is not as good as when you were in SKT. You have to train well, Wanghu. You all have to supervise him and don't let him be lazy."

Chen Yiqiu glanced at Little Peanut, who was staring at the phone and smiling happily.

Li Zaiwan echoed: "He must be lazy. He still can't do it without my supervision."

Suddenly, Little Peanut started typing and said: "Li Zaiwan, didn't you come to the scene? Why did you disappear when we came back from the championship?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Zaiwan stopped responding, as if he didn't see it.

Little Peanut pursued the victory: "You knew we were going to celebrate, so you ran away early. Would you feel embarrassed? We are all our own people, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. It will be difficult for us to meet in the international arena in the future, unless you are buying Tickets come in.”

Little Peanut laughed while talking, as if he was imagining Li Zaiwan getting angry in a hurry.

Chen Yiqiu shook his head. These two were really enemies. They were like that in SKT before and they still are like that now.

But it's good, they won't let you down when they are there, and they help to create an atmosphere.

At this moment, Kkoma said: "It's not like there is no chance. We will have a chance to meet in the intercontinental competition."

Seeing this, Chen Yiqiu was stunned and suddenly realized that it seemed like this!

The intercontinental competition is a battle between LCK and LPL, with four teams in each division.

Moreover, the intercontinental competition is not a high-standard competition, and the selection is not very strict. It is usually based on the spring competition rankings, but if there is a team that does not want to go, you can also change the team to take the top spot.

In short, it is not that SKT has no chance to participate in the intercontinental competition.

If SKT comes, we can meet then.

Xiaohuahua said in the group: "Li Zaiwan, stop dreaming, you can't come."

Li Zaiwan swore: "I will definitely come just to say this to you! Nothing else!"

Chen Yiqiu was looking at his cell phone. Xiao Huahua came over and asked, "Brother Yiqiu, Li Zaiwan probably won't be able to participate in this year's intercontinental competition. That's probably it."

Obviously, Little Peanut was unsure and seemed to be frightened by Li Zaiwan.

Chen Yiqiu shook his head: "It's hard to say. If he really wants to come, maybe there will be a way."

"Ah? Is that so?" Little Peanut was shocked.

An hour later, after finishing their meal, everyone in Taobo left the hotel and went back to rest.

In the next few days, everyone in Taobo chose to stay here and have fun. They all came, and now they have won the championship. Officials and clubs have bonuses. It would be a pity not to play.

After playing in Europe for a few days, everyone in Taobo returned to China and started preparing for the summer split.

There are no obvious changes in the LPL teams in the summer split. In terms of strength, Chen Yiqiu noticed that IG has made great progress, followed by their Taobo. As the bot lane strength increases, the last piece of the puzzle is being perfected.

Among the remaining teams, RNG, jungler and others are all getting along well, and UZI's playing style has gradually matured, and the progress has been very obvious.

Then there is RW. This team feels very special.

Although the five of them are not star players, their overall strength is very strong and their regular season record is very good.

Next is JDG. Chen Yiqiu of the JDG team is more optimistic about the mid-to-top team, that is, Toothpaste and Zoom. These two people are capable.

As for the LCK, Chen Yiqiu noticed that a new team has emerged in the LCK, GRF!

This team has five newcomers and entered the LCK from the secondary league. The summer split started with the regular season and started with six consecutive victories, leading the entire LCK.

LCK felt like it had grasped a life-saving straw. It was too late to feel sad about KZ's loss, and it directly and seamlessly started to build momentum for Griffin.

GRF has a very obvious advantage over KZ. The five of them have come up step by step from the secondary league. All five of them are young players and have a bright future, giving them unlimited room for imagination.

As for KZ, after all, the bottom lane is an old player, and he can already see the top, but GRF is not, and there is a lot to be done by highlighting one.

LCK regains hope!

Time came to July, as the intercontinental competition was approaching, the LPL official website began to promote the intercontinental competition, and at the same time released the four qualified teams, namely Taobao, IG, RNG and RW.

This is based on the spring split results, which happens to be the top four.

Chen Yiqiu noticed that the four LCK teams have not yet been determined, which is quite strange.

Logically speaking, they should be distributed at the same time. One day later, Chen Yiqiu finally saw the results from the LCK side, which were: KZ, AFS, GRF and SKT.

Chen Yiqiu saw something was wrong. There was no Griffin team during the spring split. They were promoted in the summer split.

It seems that the selection criteria of LCK are not the same as those of LPL.

Chen Yiqiu was making inquiries when he suddenly heard Little Peanut's voice: "Isn't this right? Why can SKT...that kid Li Zaiwan participate in the intercontinental competition? There must be something wrong with this!"

Chen Yiqiu looked back and found that Little Peanut was also checking the LCK official website.

Chen Yiqiu smiled: "Anyway, he can definitely participate. Then you can catch up on old times."

"Reminiscing about old times? Huh?" Little Peanut seemed to have thought of something terrible.

Lee Sang Hyuk stepped forward and said: "Wanghu, don't you want to meet the new members of SKT, our juniors? They were training with us before."

Now SKT's top lane, jungler, mid laner and ADC are all former substitutes, which is equivalent to being substitutes.

When Chen Yiqiu was still in SKT, he often trained with these substitutes and played training games.

So, in a way, they are half teachers.

Of course, it's hard to say what the relationship is now. There was no friendship when we were there, and we haven't contacted each other since. Senior, junior, these are just more polite and polite terms.

Little Peanut said: "It must be a good thing to see them, but I will see Li Zaiwan..."

Little Peanut's scalp feels numb just thinking about it. (End of chapter)
