Chapter 231 If you are not the No. seed, you will be considered a failure.
After the game, there is usually a handshake session, but this time Xu Yuan didn't say much and just patted Lee Sang Hyuk on the shoulder. Lao Fei, let’s go back and practice for another two years. If this was the World Championships and everyone was on the same team, I would praise you for playing well, but if this is the Asian Games, I can only say that you still have to practice. Lee Sang Hyuk is indeed a little disappointed. After all, this is also a national-level honor. It is really a pity not to win it. The next Asian Games will not be held until four years later. Such a long time... Whether he can make it, and how much success he can achieve at his peak is basically unknown. Unless the opponent is useless, it will be difficult to win. Lee Sang Hyuk has always had a relatively clear understanding of himself. Smeb couldn't hide the regret in his expression.
Military service... If we can really win, there is a high probability that we will be exempted. He is almost at the stage of military service. No matter how much the club helps with the formalities, it is basically reaching its limit. But even though it was a pity, he still hit Xu Yuan on the shoulder and cursed with a smile. "Xiba, you performed so well that it makes me a little sick." As a teammate, he was naturally happy to see Xu Yuan perform well, because it meant that he was still in excellent condition. But the target of this bravery is himself, so it's not very comfortable. Forget it, it is only the first Asian Games that e-sports has entered anyway, and it is actually an exhibition match. Even if he wins, he is not guaranteed to be exempted from military service. Smeb enjoys suffering. Unlike the two of them, Emperor Chi had already covered his face and cried. The two brothers, Smeb and Faker, both performed very well today. The second Smeb sword girl was also targeted by tactics, it wasn't that he couldn't beat her. Even though Korean netizens are full of martial virtue, they still have some sense of truth, although not much. Therefore, I would like to show some kindness to both of them. The jungler Xiao Peanut played equally well in the first round today, and he was not in a hazy state throughout. Auxiliary? Generally, when a team loses, it is difficult to blame the support on the support. If the bottom lane collapses, it is generally considered to be AD's problem. Therefore, it was difficult for Emperor Chi to resist. Because his little cannon is a bit too useless.
Now his name is probably on the kill list by Korean audiences. Maybe the day of returning home will be the time when the hatred of the spring comes. Thinking about it... Assi, I am a war criminal! ? His crying at this time was very real, not only because of losing the game, but also because of the public opinion that might come. Until he stood on the podium, he was still crying silently and wiping his eyes. In a sense, Emperor Chi is smart. Showing sadness now will somewhat reduce the intensity of the incoming fire. At least some Korean viewers will feel that he still has the intention to change. Everyone's joys and sorrows are different. Xu Yuan stood on the highest gold medal podium, seriously thinking about a very nonsensical question: Let's eat something to fill our stomach later. How about going to the break room and ordering some fries?
Unlike the gold and silver medal players, the Wanwan team stood on the bronze medal podium looking excited and even cheering. The organizer came up with the medals and first gave the bronze medal to the Wanwan team. Kasa lowered his head to let the organizers put the bronze medal on him, then lowered his head and bit the medal. He took the champagne handed over by the organizer, cheered and opened it directly. Xu Yuan:?
field:?
Lee Sang Hyuk:? Smeb:? ? ?
Several people turned to look at Kasa in unison, causing Kasa to blush. "It's so funny, what kind of bronze medal champagne and pizza can be so perverted?" "Don't say it, don't say it! Our compatriots are really happier than the Korean team now, because they will definitely not be able to beat China and South Korea. If they can get third, it will be considered a success, but the Korean team cannot accept the runner-up!" "Long live sixty points, one more point is wasted!" Kasa actually didn't want to, but the coach told him that he didn't know whether he could come next time anyway, so he might as well wait and see. So he opened it. Silver and gold medals were hung around the players' necks one by one, and behind their podiums, three flags were ready. The one in the middle is naturally from the Chinese team. At this moment, impassioned music suddenly sounded. Xu Yuan's expression instantly became solemn. It is undeniable that every country is not perfect, but after all, it has raised us and deserves respect.
For some reasons, I won’t go into details about the lyrics. As the music gradually faded away, the flag of the Chinese team was flying at the top. This is the meaning of the Asian Games! At this time, the barrage was already flooded with comments like "Awesome!" This scene at this time will surely become a memory of youth in the hearts of many people. But far away in China, the old village chief smiled, and so did the parents of the other contestants. There was only pride in their smiles. At this moment, the 2018 Jakarta League of Legends competition has officially ended! The Chinese team was immediately blocked by various media after they stepped off the stage, but Abramovich only chose to accept domestic interviews. "Excuse me, player Xu Yuan. How do you feel now that you have won the Asian Games as you wished?" Xu Yuan glanced at the interviewer and smiled. "Now? He breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he finally fulfilled his mission." "For me, since I am playing in this capacity, winning is what I must do." "I'm very happy and excited." The 2018 Jakarta Asian Games was originally a win, with the Chinese team winning three to one against the South Korean team. Although the lineups of both China and South Korea have changed, Xu Yuan's goal for himself is not to be worse than the original Uzi. The difficulty is indeed greater, after all, Smeb and Lee Sang Hyuk are in much better condition than before. However, since so many fans support him, the higher-ups also trust him. He must not lose. This is the simplest logic in Xu Yuan's heart. Although he used to be a spectator and hated people who boasted about Uzi, but at the Jakarta Asian Games in 18, he also sincerely called Uzi awesome. Without answering too much, Xu Yuan smiled and avoided the next question, and followed his teammates towards the backstage. Only a tall and straight figure wearing an Asian Games jacket was left. Behind him, [CHINA] is so conspicuous. As the game ended, major media immediately began to report on it. Xiao Tuantuan: “In the just-concluded 2018 Jakarta Asian Games’ first League of Legends exhibition, the Chinese team defeated the South Korean team in the final with a score of three to zero, winning another gold medal for our country. Congratulations to them! " CCTV Sports Channel: "Recently, our Asian Games athletes defeated South Korea and won another gold medal. This marks that the emerging sport called e-sports has begun to flourish. Let us congratulate them!" Xinhua News Agency: "Xinhua News Agency reported that at 2018:8 pm on August 29, 7, the Chinese League of Legends team successfully defeated the South Korean team with a crushing three-to-zero score and won another gold medal!"
Ziguangge: "The new era requires a new atmosphere, and the future will be dominated by new forces. What is e-sports?" The first to bear the brunt are the four top official media. Although the League of Legends project is not yet available on the news network, after all, the current environment does not support it. However, on platforms such as Weibo and Bilibili, the officials did not ignore it and gave it the publicity it deserved. It can only be said that the times are like this. The news of the League of Legends gold medal went straight to the top of the Weibo trending search within ten minutes. Three to zero, it was still the Korean team. This is so infuriating!
Coupled with serious reports from the official media, many veteran players burst into tears. Because when they were kids... E-sports? This thing was called electronic heroin at that time. However, not everyone is happy. For example, a certain female fan who bought a hotly searched top male star. Seeing that their brother's hot search was about to reach the top of the list as expected, they were really angry when they saw several hot searches related to League of Legends suddenly popping up and overtaking their favorite brother. "# Ziguangge explores e-sports haha, who bought this hot search? How shameless? I have never heard of e-sports, Ziguangge? From the name, it should be a restaurant. It must use gutter oil every day!" "It's so disgusting. Who is doing this malicious search? My fans are so unreasonable." These comments are truly distressing. Even Xu Yuan, who had been practicing in Tieba for many years and had cultivated the innate abstract holy body, couldn't help laughing. Ziguang Pavilion has turned into a restaurant and uses gutter oil. In ancient Greece, he was more or less the god of humor. It's similar to Luo Tianyi's lip-synching. At this time, he had already boarded the bus back to his dormitory and would leave to return to China tomorrow. He is genuine, not like Boss Jia. Tieba also started to discuss it, but this time the things they discussed were a bit strange. A baby maggot named Bullfrog Frog made a viral post. "Reasonable discussion, is this combat power ranking reasonable?" T0: Constant Temperature, Flying in China, Healthy Sun, Asian Games Yuan
T1: Vampire Chicken, Steady Water, Kunming Tiger, Fantasy Handicap T2: No ban on dopa, lovelorn lotus, cultural pot
As soon as this post was posted, the fans and fans of these players couldn't hold back.
"Damn, Heng Wen Zi is ridiculous. I can't stand it any longer. If Uzi could really mature, he would be a bit fierce." "China Flying should definitely be T0. If faker were Chinese, LPL would have been unified." "A healthy Shy is worthy of being the Shy who doesn't play solo with a trash can, right? It doesn't feel T0. Brother, what kind of champions are you and Uzi?" "The Vampire Chicken is really fine. It's at the top level just like Stable Water. The Broiler Chicken really likes to give away resources, and Ah Shui is also a waste." "Kunming people are laughing so hard, because our four seasons are like spring, so Kunming Tiger is spring every day, which just triggers the Tiger Emperor of Spring's passive, right?" "What's the plot of Fantasy Jean?" "Is it possible that this is literally what Letme imagined herself to be?" "Can't you even reach T0 in your fantasy? Suddenly I feel a little pity for him." "Not banning dopa is too typical. People say dopa is very good. If he is not banned, he will be another Faker in the professional world. These people are really like horses." "Could Lovelorn Lotus be referring to Tian Ye after deft returned to Korea in the early days of S7? Did he also bring a big move to summon a new person named Yuan? It's understandable that he would be on the list." "The cultural pot is outrageous. The spicy hot pot has culture. You can travel all over the world, right?" It can only be said that at the end of August, this post really made the popularity a bit exaggerated. Because it envisages the upper limit of players, and it also contains many jokes. So it became popular immediately. However, Xu Yuan didn't look much at it. For no other reason, he had seen this job before. Without Cheerful Sky and Unity B, it can only be said that I cannot get his approval. The EDG players who returned to the LPL immediately began preparations for the playoffs. Although they didn't train together much during the Asian Games, the individual players did a lot of training. After all, all five members of the current S8EDG lineup have basically entered this year's Asian Games, but three are in China and two are in South Korea. There is still nothing to say about maintaining the status. Although the Asian Games is not as valuable as the S Games from a competitive perspective. Even compared to the gold content of MSI, it may not have a decisive advantage. However, there is certainly a higher level of competition within the division. So there is no problem with the players' personal condition, the only problem is the running-in. We haven't played together for a few weeks, and it takes some time to find a tacit understanding. It’s much easier for a team that has already gotten along well to find a tacit understanding. Tengjing specially adjusted EDG's schedule because the Asian Games is definitely more important than the regular season and needs to make way for it.
Therefore, EDG has finished the regular season long ago, and now that they are back, they have a lot of time to adjust. The eight teams in the playoffs were also officially announced on September 2nd. Eastern Division: IG, RNG, JDG, SNG
Western Division: EDG, RW, TOP, FPX
It can only be said that Tengjing does not understand grouping. If SNG and JDG were put together, wouldn't it be a real fight?
Rather than saying it’s SNG versus JDG, it’s better to say it’s versus . A pure e-commerce war, doesn’t it look good? The current rules are that the third in the East plays the fourth in the West, and the fourth in the East plays the third in the West. So JDG's opponent is FPX, not SNG. Xu Yuan was quite disappointed. Previously in June, JDG mid laner Toothpaste was fined two Dabuliu. The reason for the fine is actually a bit funny. It was because during the game against SNG on June 6, he typed a sentence on the public screen: 618, go to ! The SNG players at that time were completely confused. It is worth mentioning that after Toothpaste was fined two Dabuliu by LPL officials, the JDG club subsequently rewarded him with five Dabuliu. Over and over again, Toothpaste made thirty thousand dollars with just one sentence. It adds a bit of black humor to this matter. As time passed little by little, Xu Yuan did not care about any praise for him on the Internet, but settled down and began to improve his hero proficiency. In the eyes of many teams, his hero pool was already difficult to target, so they simply gave up. However, Xu Yuan himself was not satisfied. In each version, there are always some heroes that will become popular in the version, and Xu Yuan's ultimate goal is to become an ADC that is not affected by the version. So, how can we do it? Xu Yuan’s thoughts are similar to Dagu’s in a sense: In this case, wouldn't it be enough to train them all to the top level from the beginning?
Therefore, although Xu Yuan is now successful in the eyes of many people, he still maintains a very high competitive level. It’s almost time to relax and unwind. However, Xu Yuan never thought of it this way. Before winning the championship, the enemies were players from other teams. After winning the championship, the enemy has become himself. "Let's take a rest? Training is almost over anyway." "It's okay to fish once in a while. You've already won the championship anyway, right?" "Why are you so tired every day? You train hard before winning the championship, and you have to train hard after winning the championship. Then didn't you win the championship in vain?"
This kind of thinking has caused many players who have the potential and ability to compete for a second championship to sink. Human beings are inherently lazy, and many tools were invented to save energy and facilitate themselves. For already successful champions, the most important thing in the second year after winning the championship is to stay motivated. Although Abramovich has now become a manager, he still likes to patrol the entire training room habitually with his hands behind his back. Seeing Xu Yuan's efforts as always, Abu couldn't help but nodded secretly. The success of some people is really not unreasonable. Abramovich has always felt that EDG was lucky enough to have the Xu Yuan they have now. If EDG is Cao Cao, then Xu Yuan is as important to it as Guan Yu. Abu thought, it seemed that some local products had been sent to his family recently. I'll send it to our Yunchang later! At 4:30 pm on September 5th, the first game of the playoffs begins. The TOP team will face the SNG team. After White Crescent returned, the TOP team's performance in the summer split has improved a lot. Although Yaya has always been famous for pig brain overload. But there is good news:
Many LPL coaches don't even have pig brains, and BP only knows how to copy. The growth of TOP team's current jungler xx is even more obvious. xx in the S8 Summer Split is the undoubted strength of the TOP team. As the first person to be banned for laughing after losing a game, xx has now completely transformed. While his playing style is fierce, his ability to seize opportunities and his early rhythm are excellent. Laughing and hating your whole life, there is no joy. xx stopped laughing, but he did become stronger. SNG, on the other hand, mainly relies on the top lane to set the pace. Now they are on the road of wolf walking. Although his subsequent performance in the international competition was not outstanding, Langxing was ridiculed as a dog crawling or a bank. But it doesn't mean that Lang Xing is good. In today's LPL, he is really good on the road. In the middle and jungle, there are Ultraman Hacker and Black Angel Angle. Although the middle and jungle pair are relatively immature now, they are already playing very well. Because they were ahead in the TOP rankings, they started with a score of 1-0. There seems to be no suspense.
The configuration of SNG is just like B. There seems to be no pressure on TOP. If you win two more games, you can win. However, in fact, this game made TOP sweat. Although it started at 1-0, we started playing directly from the second round. However, TOP's second and third games were directly stunned by SNG. If you don't count the point given by their ranking advantage, they were beaten 0-2. Fortunately, White Crescent Moon didn't have any trouble in the follow-up, and finally won SNG after replacing Moyu. Perhaps from this time on, a ghost, a ghost named Zhenghuo, has been floating in the sky above TOP. That's why TES, the top live-action team that has inherited the name of TOP, will appear in the future. TES is simply the Florida of LPL, it really doesn’t care for idlers. Qingtian, the top laner of the team, was the first person to fight against Faker. The jungler of the second team, he invented the word krd. The classic sentence "krd, I kill u mom" is simply a unique skill. Many years later, when Bai Yueya and his most loyal Taobo lost to Vietnam in the S12 World Championship and were eliminated, I wonder if he would think of today's classic two-for-two matchup? The second JDG game against FPX was not interesting, and Xu Yuan didn't even bother to watch it. The weaknesses of these two teams are too obvious. What is there to study against them?
Just let Xiaotian catch him at the second level, Xu Yuan guarantees C. EDG is first in the Western Conference, and IG is first in the Eastern Conference, so they are both directly sent to the semifinals. Apart from the teams that have the ability to fight, there is nothing to pay attention to. There was no long rest, and the second round of the playoffs began soon. "Is RNG playing TOP today?" "Want to take a look?" Lee Sang Hyuk smiled and spoke. "Forget it, they're not on the same level." Xu Yuan shook his head directly and continued Ranking. Although TOP has some strength, it really only has a little bit. Despite the fact that RNG has suffered under EDG this season, in fact, RNG still has its original dominance. It's just that I'm a bit behind on self-confidence, which is normal. Can you feel invincible when you keep losing to the same team?
RNG directly took away TOP three to one. This also makes RNG fans happy. "Do you still need to watch RNG games? As long as you don't play against EDG, you will win again when you wake up!"
"The puppy is really fierce. He is the real number one in LPL in my heart." "EDG wait!" Don't worry about whether you can beat him or not, point the sword first and then talk about it. Huang Za has been suppressed by Zhu Za for a long time. It's just that they can't do it, so even if they want to open the champagne, they hold back. On the other side, JDG crushed FPX, turned around and sent RW away as well. RW had a winning streak at the beginning of the summer split and was considered a dark horse. However, they were unable to defeat them all, and after being studied in the playoffs, they could not beat them at all. The top dark horse team like IM in the past no longer exists. After the game, Big B cried bitterly in the live broadcast room. His current ID is "Jin Gugu wants to go to S8." Big B is at a real low point in his life at this time. After transferring from JDG to RW, RW did give him a little hope at the beginning, but this hope was eventually shattered. One sentence can well describe Big B’s current mental state:
I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light. If there really was no chance at all, Big B wouldn't be so sad. But this kind of opportunity seemed to be there, but in the end he was mercilessly knocked back to reality, which was a really big blow to him. At this stage of the playoffs, the final four have been officially decided. EDG and IG, these two top teams, were directly eliminated in the semifinals due to their regular season rankings. Then there are RNG, which defends its ranking, and JDG, a team that came up from the bottom half. The first game of the semi-finals was a fascinating game. EDG beats RNG! The most classic pig-dog battle is here. Although the pigs have now retired, EDG's pig farm no longer has a factory director. However, it was Xu Yuan who replaced him. Every time Uzi thinks about this, he feels a little uncomfortable. Forget it about Ming Kai, he is not in the same position after all. Even if he lost, it could be said that it was because of Ming Kai's targeting. However, Xu Yuan has defeated Uzi many times in the lane, which also makes Uzi have subtle doubts about his ability in the lane.
Am I never going to be able to beat Xu Yuan in this life? For Uzi, who is naturally arrogant, to think this way, it can only be said that Xu Yuan's previous move... was a little too light. On the morning of the game, the atmosphere in the RNG training room was extremely serious. "This game is very important!" Current coach Sun Dayong has a solemn expression and sets the tone with his first sentence. "Although we have a lot of points in the spring split, once we lose to EDG in the semifinals and IG beat JDG, their points will be higher than us." "If EDG wins the championship, IG will become the second seed entering the World Championship, and we can only play in the bubble game." He took a deep breath, "Everyone, you don't want to play in the bubble game, right?" In fact, it is useless even if the points are the same, because the weight of points in the summer split is higher than that in the spring split. If the points are the same, the summer split results will prevail. If IG reaches the finals and RNG falls in the semi-finals. IG's second seed qualification is certain. After hearing his words, the players' faces became heavy. The World Championships, who doesn’t want to go?
As for whether they have the confidence to win the bubble match, RNG players still have it. But the problem is that playing in bubbling matches is not reliable, and it is easy to be targeted by tactics. This is a very reluctant choice for a team like them with a relatively simple tactical system. So it is of course the best to be able to enter the World Championship stably. However, if they want to win stably, the only way for RNG is to beat EDG. But EDG...is it that easy to win?
KZ from the LCK next door is still hanging on the old crooked neck tree!
There is no doubt about the dominance of this EDG team, which is simply disappointing. We can only hope that Riot will rectify the World Championship version and target them severely. "I know people don't have a lot of confidence, and neither do I." Sun Dayong admitted this frankly. "But think about it, how many of the so-called galactic battleships can win until the end?" "Even if it's EDG, I think they will lose the game one day." "And the only team that is qualified to beat them is our RNG." You win, win, win, but in the end you can only lose, lose, lose! EDG in the World Championship will definitely be targeted by the version, and Sun Dayong believes in the wisdom of Riot Games. "There is no way out. Don't think about the bubble match. We have only one primary goal."
He paused. "Win EDG and break their myth!" At the same moment when Sun Dayong was lecturing, Xu Yuan was meticulously packing up his peripherals. After confirming that there was no problem, he closed the door and walked to the hall downstairs. "Yes, it's not too late to get up today." Coach kkoma confirmed the number of people. He pondered for a moment and had no intention of making a long speech. The strength is here, so confident. "As long as we play normally, we will be the absolute No. 1 seed." "Not getting the No. 1 seed is a failure. This is not because I put pressure on you, but because you are the best players." Coach KKoma spoke calmly and showed a smile. "I am convinced of this!" "Let's go." "Send them to play the bubbling match." (End of this chapter)
