Dean, stop being C, your teammates are not worthy!

Chapter 308 - An earthquake during the transfer period

On November 8, the first day of the transfer period, EDG took the lead in dropping a bomb.

Top laner Flandre, jungler Mingkai, mid laner Pawn, and ADC Mr. Dai are all disconnected.

The implementation of the salary cap system not only has a great impact on IG, EDG also cannot afford the salaries of many top-paid players.

EDG fans were immediately confused.

Although they are unwilling to do so, it has become inevitable for the top, middle and bottom three to leave the team.

Scout is still there in the mid lane, and his performance in the summer split is also very good.

But……

Why did Mingkai run away too? ?

Although he did not perform well in the S6 World Championship, he was taught a forehand and backhand lesson by Little Peanut.

Then there’s no need to really go home and raise pigs, right? ?

Four of the five players ran away, are they going to be rebuilt around Meiko? ?

Meiko, who was a relatively new newcomer last year, is now supporting the EDG family? ?

However, before they could react, EDG released another message.

New jungler ClearLove7 is online!

Youth training player Iboy is officially connected!

Top order Mouse is officially connected!

Although EDG's method of diverting attention has the intention of copying IG at the beginning of the year, it has indeed succeeded in over half of the painful period of changing EDG's lineup.

At least EDG fans feel that the sky that had collapsed has been restored.

What followed closely was news from RNG.

Both Korean players left the team, Looper returned to China and disappeared, and Mata is preparing to return to China. It is said that he is in contact with teams in the LCK.

What was added was top laner Letme, who had been practicing in the secondary league for a year, and...

"After active and friendly communication and negotiation with the players, we are happy to announce that from now on, player Sg (Shi Senming) will officially join the League of Legends branch of the RNG e-sports club. He will serve as the team's auxiliary player and will continue to work together with the team. Make progress together.

On the road to the future, we will walk together, full of enthusiasm, overcoming obstacles, with the stars as our companions, building dreams and moving forward towards our dreams. Follow the light and meet it, follow the light, there is infinite hope ahead!

RNG-Ming is officially connected! ! ! "

Compared to the shock caused by Shi Senming's joining RNG, almost no one paid attention to the news of Letme's return.

RNG took the lead in announcing the roster signings, which made IG fans who were still immersed in the joy of IG's second consecutive championship break their defenses.

"No, why is my home gone?!"

“Less than half a month after winning the championship, you’re already running away?”

"No bro, I'm still waiting for IG to win three consecutive championships??"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Does the salary cap have such a big impact? The principal can't even bear it?"

"No, where is Yuan Shen? I just want to know if Yuan Shen is still there?"

IG’s official blog was flushed.

The staff was busy replying, but IG seemed to be competing to see who could hold their breath longer and had no intention of announcing the list.

It was not until November 11 that a message was released.

“Today is the 17th birthday of TheShy’s recording player. The entire IG club sends blessings~~ The days we meet are always short. We have spent a lot of time together, but today, the IG five-member team is going to separate. .

After active and friendly communication and negotiation with the players, players JackeyLove (Yu Wenbo) and Ming (Shi Senming) have officially left the team. I wish them a comfortable life in the new team. IG will always be your home and welcome back at any time.

Seven days later is JackeyLove's birthday. He is allergic to seafood and likes spicy food but not rabbit heads. He often goes to eat Haidilao alone at 6 o'clock in the morning... I hope you can take good care of him @TES Club. "

The news of the two leaving the team detonated the LPL again like a depth bomb.

As the most famous team in the LPL and the number one team in history, IG’s every move has millions of fans following it.

However, there was no news of the three players leaving the team, which still gave IG fans some comfort.

At this time, all five members of IG were selected for the LPL's annual best team, Yuan Shen was once again selected as the annual MVP, and the news of the most popular player of the year also came out.

Below IG's official blog, a group of demons danced wildly.

Some congratulated IG on its achievements, some asked why Jack and Xiao Ming were let go, and some asked whether the remaining three players would stay on the team.

Slowly, the comments from fans gradually unified, asking IG when the big list will be announced.

Seeing famous players being selected one by one by other clubs, ten of the twelve LPL teams have announced their rosters, but IG is still holding its breath...

Not to mention, the major capitals of LPL are wielding big sticks and have indeed recruited many potential players.

In addition to RNG, WE, EDG and other established strong teams, the two teams that attract the most attention are TES and JDG.

TES bought MaRin from LGD, introduced Casa from FW next door, plus Knight and Jack acquired from PDD, the overall lineup is not bad.

JDG, on the other hand, bought Imp from LGD and combined with its original lineup of Zoom, Cild, Yagao, Lvmao, etc., it is also very competitive.

Among the twelve LPL teams, FPX bought Gimgoon and Tian from PDD. Together with the original mid laner Doinb, they only need a bottom lane duo to form a promising team.

Although LGD did not announce the list, no one paid attention to them.

MaRin left the team, GODV left the team, Imp left the team, and Hirano Aya chose to retire. LGD sent away the golden generation of players and has completely become a weak team.

…

At this moment, Yuan Shen is still considering the new round of teammates.

As a shareholder of IG, Principal Wang gave Yuan Shen the right to select players for IG.

In addition to the retention of the contracts of the top, mid and jungle players, the bottom lane duo still has a total salary space of 6 million.

Of course, this is just in accordance with the official salary limit of 40 million. Principal Wang means to find one according to 10 million.

TheShy and Rookie are both given a salary of 10 million, but Rookie has an additional commercial contract as compensation.

"Lin Weixiang, Liu Qingsong, Han Jin, Wang Liuyi..."

Looking at the list of players given by Yuan Shen, Su Xiaoluo was stunned.

These players, except for Sima Laozei, who may be more expensive, are all very cheap players.

Even Sima Laozei's annual salary does not exceed two million.

In other words, even if all four of them are signed, the salary space of eight million is more than enough.

"Jack received a two-year offer of 21 million from TES, and Xiao Ming also went to RNG. The absence of the bottom lane duo is a big loss for us. If we want to compete for the championship, I think we still have to find some famous players, such as VG's Xiao Duan, who I think is good..."

Su Xiaoluo glanced at Yuan Shen and suggested.

"Xiao Duan? You can also contact him. This year's version has high requirements for the bottom lane, and you should really consider it seriously. You can invite these people to try out and try to settle before the All-Star Game."

Yuan Shen shrugged.

In fact, whether it is Lin Weixiang and Liu Qingsong, or Sima Laozei and Baolan, they are definitely enough in S7.

The big earthquake in LPL did not cause him any psychological fluctuations.

Even if there are more talented players, they will not pose a threat to him without the baptism of the big competition.

...

What he cares about is the movement in LCK.

The number of teams in LCK is less than that in LPL, and there are only a few teams that are capable of forming a galaxy battleship.

After the KeSPA Cup, all five players of ROX left the team and were divided up by LZ and KT, which was quite like the feeling of Samsung's ten sons gathering together to form a fire and dispersing to form a sky full of stars.

KT took jungler Score as the core, dug Smeb and Kuro from ROX, and formed a new galaxy battleship with Mata, Pawn, and Deft who returned from LPL.

The emerging LZ team dug the remaining three people from ROX, with Peaunt, Pray, and Groilla as the core, plus two newcomers BDD and Khan.

As for SKT, which Yuan Shen has been following, there was no big movement. Bengi left the team, and two new players, Huni and Cuzz, were introduced. The overall level did not fluctuate much.

It was not until the last day of the transfer period that IG announced the final lineup.

"It is an honor to welcome Han Jin (SMLZ) to join the IG family after formal negotiations and communication with the players!

After two and a half years of professional competition, Smlz will bring his experience and talent as a professional player to this top LPL team - IG·Smlz has been connected!

He is already familiar with this battlefield, and Smlz will not stop fighting. I believe that Smlz's joining can inject new vitality into IG, and a bright future awaits us again!"

"After friendly communication and negotiation between the two parties, free player Wang Liuyi (Magen) will join IG from now on and will join us to fight in the 2017 season. Magen has rich experience in the field, stable laning, and strong awareness.

I believe that Magen's joining can inject new vitality into IG, and a bright future awaits us again!"

The release of two consecutive announcements, plus the news that Ning was promoted from the second team to the first team as a jungler substitute, completely bombarded the entire LPL.

Then, the IG roster was announced.

"Coach: Lee Jung-hyun PoohManDu

Manager: Su Xiaoluo

Top: Kang Seung-ryuk TheShy

Jungler: Yuan Shen YuanShen

Jungler: Gao Zhenning Ning

Mid: Song Yijin Rookie

ADC: Han Jin SMLZ

Support: Wang Liuyi Magen."

Sima Laozei, who has not yet proven himself in his career, and an unknown support together form the IG 2017 lineup.

The big list was announced, and the comments exploded instantly.

"It's okay as long as the top, mid and jungle are still there. It doesn't matter who is in the bottom lane."

"Why did Jack and Xiao Ming leave...really."

"Riot implemented the salary cap system to destroy LPL. IG could have won three consecutive championships with the original team!"

"The current IG feels much weaker than last year. I hope this year's world championship will be a top, mid and jungle version. If it is a bottom lane version, IG will be in trouble!"

"Fumanduo is all smiles. A champion support player in S3 and a coach who won two consecutive championships. If he returns to LCK, he will be worshiped!"

...

IG's new lineup caused a sensation.

In contrast, the roster announced by FPX was not so eye-catching.

Except for Gimgoon and Doinb, the others, whether Tian or Lin Weixiang and Liu Qingsong who were transferred from Dong Xiaosa, are not well-known.

The transfer period is over, and the German Cup will be held next.

This year's All-Star event is only two days away from the German Cup, and it is almost impossible to participate in both competitions at the same time.

As the most well-known player, Yuan Shen almost crushed all other junglers and successfully obtained the qualification for this All-Star.

The teammates in the other four positions are Flandre in the top lane, Rookie in the middle lane, and Uzi and Meiko in the bottom lane.

The audience quarreled over the choice of substitutes.

In the end, it was decided to let Mingkai go.

After all, with an extra jungler, Yuan Shen can also play as a top laner in some cases.

As the only S-League player with two positions, a man who has won the highest honors in both the top and jungle positions, playing jungle alone seems to be a waste of resources.

The LPL All-Star contestants are out, and the lists of other regions are also announced one after another.

The European division is led by the French king xpeke, with top laner Soaz, jungler Jankos, and bottom laners ReKKles and Mithy are all familiar faces.

The North American division is led by Bjergsen, top laner Da Mu, jungler Kakao, bottom lane DoubleLift and Aphromoo.

As for LCK, it sent out the classic All-Star combination of Smeb, Peaunt, Faker, Bang and CoreJJ.

On November 13, Yuan Shen boarded the plane to Barcelona with his All-Star teammates.

The contestants were all familiar people, and they talked and laughed along the way, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

When they arrived in Barcelona, ​​there was less than a week left before the start of the All-Star.

During this period, fans from outside the team saw this scene and had no intention to fight internally.

The voting results of the All-Star Game have been settled, and they are more looking forward to this LPL Galaxy Battleship!

Starting from the MSI of S5, LPL has won five world championships in a row.

This does not include the Chinese team winning the Olympic Games.

If they win the All-Star Game again this time, it will really be the sixth consecutive championship!

And unlike the World Championship, although the All-Star Game is more entertaining, because the players are selected from various teams, they can better represent the overall strength of LPL to a certain extent.

The audience of LCK has high hopes for this All-Star Game.

This is the last fig leaf!

Last year's LPL quarterfinals champion, LCK quarterfinals runner-up.

This year's LPL quarterfinals champion, LCK quarterfinals runner-up.

Although LCK's results are better than last year, the overall results of the World Championship in the past two years are still crushed by LPL.

Even the total number of world championships that it is proud of is the same as LPL.

If LMS is included, there is even one less.

The current LCK audience can only console themselves by saying that IG won the championship with Korean aid, and that IG has four Chinese and three Korean players in the past two years.

It has to be said that this year's LPL team is indeed a real dream lineup. Ordinary teams, even Principal Wang, probably can't buy these six players at their peak!

The ID alone is enough to scare away a large number of people!

The outside audience and major commentators have begun various predictions!

At the same time, the LPL six-man team that has arrived in Barcelona has begun running-in training.

In this week, the players must run in well, otherwise there may be an embarrassing situation where they are a pile of shit when they are together and a sky full of stars when they are apart.

LOL has never been a competitive event where the five strongest players gather together to win.

Team cooperation and team tacit understanding are also crucial!

Fortunately, these five people are all top players, so there are no major problems in terms of technology, and they have also joined forces in the Olympics and last year's All-Star Game. Although the running-in process is bumpy, the progress is also very gratifying.

Under such hard training, a week passed by like a flash.

After a week of running-in, no one knows how terrifying the strength of this LPL team will be...

All domestic audiences are looking forward to it.

I hope this LPL team can win another world championship trophy for the LPL region.

In addition to the five teams from the four major regions, the All-Stars will also include Turkey TCL, Southeast Asia GPL, and Brazil CBLOL.

The schedule lasts for a total of five days. The top four will be decided in a single BO1 format in the first two days, and a Solo match will be held on the second day. On the third day, BO3 will be played until the BO5 final on the fourth day.

On the last day, there will be a series of entertainment competitions such as clone competitions and infinite brawls.

The championship competition between the regions is what the audience cares about most.

This day attracted a lot of attention both at home and abroad. As the last international event of the year, many people were looking forward to the LPL team, which had a lineup that was completely impossible before.

There were six games every day in the first two days.

The LPL team played against the North American team in the first game.

As a result, in this first game, the LPL team showed unparalleled dominance. None of the five players in the team were weak. The online strength crushed the opponent. Yuan Shen was like a fish in water in the jungle. He almost didn't need to operate much to suppress Kakao.

And Rookie also killed his big brother. After getting the online sometimes, he cooperated with Yuan Shen to invade the jungle crazily, and Kakao was so angry that he typed question marks on the public screen.

After a week of running-in training, this time is not long, but the individual strength of the players in the LPL team is at its peak. They rely entirely on combat intuition and experience instincts, and their tacit understanding is better than most LPL teams.

And the next schedule is the same.

Yuan Shen, who had no solution for his teammates online, had already done whatever he wanted in the jungle, using all kinds of fancy tricks to easily crush his opponents.

Because his play was too bloody and unrestrained, foreign audiences even called him Satan.

Two days later, the LPL team advanced to the semifinals as the top team in Group A.

The final four All-Star teams were:

Group A: LPL team, LMS team

Group B: LCK team, Southeast Asia GPL team!

The champion of the Solo competition on the second day was successfully won by Uzi because Yuan Shen did not participate.

On the third day, the semifinals began.

Facing Taiwan again, the LPL team still showed its terrifying strength. Karsa had already gone to TES to prepare for the German Cup. This time, the AHQ jungler mountain, known as Dashan, came to participate in the All-Stars.

Unlike the BO1 in the group stage, the teams in the LMS region were very poor in both BO3 and BO5.

The LPL team ended the LMS All-Star journey with a 2-0 victory!

On the same day, Group B also decided the winner. As expected, the LCK team easily defeated the Southeast Asian team and advanced to the All-Star finals.

So far, this year's intense All-Star finals is still a battle between China and South Korea, which is not unexpected.

The domestic jubilation, this LPL team, the performance in the international competitions in the past few days has given them too many surprises

For the finals, the LPL audience is not too worried.

Especially IG fans, they are full of confidence in Yuan Shen and Rookie.

Which of these players on the opposite side has not been abused by IG?

CoreJJ, who was beaten the least, was also beaten miserably by Yuan Shen in the Olympics and group matches.

Not to mention Faker, who has been defeated by Rookie three times in a row.

If the LPL team loses the All-Star, it can only mean one thing.

The teammates are too bad, the stains are not good...
