LoL: I really didn’t mess up!

In the past, Chen Dongqing and Park Yunlong had studied the StarCraft competition system.

StarCraft, like LOL, has a highly valuable year-end global finals called WCS.

At the end of each year, 16 top StarCraft 2 players from around the world gather together to chase the final championship.

But it is not easy to get these sixteen places.

According to the rules, the Korean GSL League will directly produce eight of the quotas. As the Korean division is undoubtedly the strongest division in the world, this regulation is not excessive.

GSL is divided into three stages every year. The champion of each stage, as well as the top five points except the champion, will directly advance to WCS.

But if you are not a player in the Korean division, and you want to advance to the final global finals, you must qualify through the tour.

The tour is divided into four stations, namely Shanghai Station, Jönköping Station, Valencia Station and Montreal Station.

The tour champion and the four players with the highest accumulated points besides the champion also advance to the finals.

All in all, there are sixteen places, either to win the championship or to earn points.

But for LOL professional player Chen Dongqing, he doesn't have time to earn points game by game, nor does he have time to win the championship in the GSL, which has a strict promotion and relegation system.

So there is only one way in front of him, and that is to advance through the Shanghai Tour Championship!

So this championship is very important to him.

Whether he can continue on the road of StarCraft depends on whether he can win this tour championship.

Of course, Chen Dongqing was not under any pressure.

He knows his level of StarCraft and it is definitely not bad.

Let’s not talk about his domestic Golden League championship results. The gold content of this championship is not as good as his Korean server’s 6,000 points.

Although we are still unable to meet the top players in South Korea in this segment, with this unprecedented winning rate, the level is definitely not far behind.

Chen Dongqing looked at the time.

Today is May 25th, and the Shanghai race will start on May 29th. There will still be a few days of rest in the middle.

Chen Dongqing and Lin Xianhua dragged their luggage home first. After staying with their parents for two days, they returned to the base on the night of May 28.

At this time, the LOL branch has already gone on holiday, and there are no players in the training room. Only coaches and analysts are busy.

Park Yunlong is one of the coaches, but he is not responsible for LOL data, so he just sits on the sidelines and plays StarCraft.

After Chen Dongqing passed there, he went back to his room to put away his backpack, then returned to the training room, stood behind Park Yunlong and started to watch the game.

Today's Chen Dongqing is different from what he was at the beginning of the year. When he watches Coach Park's games again, he can see many flaws with his sharp eyes.

Coach Park still plays the Zerg that he is good at. In fact, Coach Park's level is not bad, at least his winning rate is still quite high, but he doesn't play much time, so the score never goes up.

But this time, Coach Park seemed to have encountered Waterloo.

His opponent in this game, the human race, played a very bad role. They did not attack at all and kept building defensive buildings. The fortress turrets were laid layer by layer, highlighting a stable turtle.

Park Yunlong's several consecutive attacks were beaten back by the defense tower, and for a while his troops were still slightly injured.

However, the humans on the opposite side did not take advantage of the Zerg's empty strength to fight back. They still continued to build buildings, which was extremely disgusting.

Chen Dongqing looked behind and squinted his eyes.

He now has a certain understanding of interstellar and knows this tactic.

This tactic is to take advantage of the ultra-high blood volume and AOE damage of the upgraded human fortress, as well as the fact that human farmers can repair buildings, to consume the opponent's troops and resources at a very low cost, focusing on a defensive turtle and a competition for bladder.

After this tactic took shape, at a glance, the buildings all over the ground, coupled with the torrent of steel from the mechanical troops, looked like a bustling city, so it was named urbanization.

This tactic has never been used in front of Chen Dongqing, because the weakness of the urbanization tactic is poor mobility, and Chen Dongqing's excellent micro-operation and multi-operation are the nemesis of this cumbersome enemy.

But it can be seen at this time that Coach Park is obviously disgusted by this tactic, but there is nothing he can do about it. After all, this tactic is designed to target the Zerg.

Chen Dongqing watched behind for ten minutes, but he really didn't see anything. However, he did observe that Park Yunlong's stomping frequency was getting higher and higher.

What kind of feet are you chopping off?

Just when Chen Dongqing was muttering in his heart, Pu Yunlong suddenly stood up and said to Chen Dongqing: "Help me play while I go to the toilet!"

Chen Dongqing: "."

He suddenly understood the reason why Coach Park stamped his feet.

The bodies of middle-aged and old men are so sad

As Coach Park ran, he turned back and shouted: "You don't know how to play Zerg, just keep mining and building troops. Wait for me to come back!"

Chen Dongqing raised his eyebrows, sat on Coach Park's chair, and began to operate.

It’s been a long time since StarCraft, but Chen Dongqing didn’t feel unfamiliar with it, and he was able to operate it very quickly.

"."

Two minutes later, Coach Park walked back to the lounge.

This long process of releasing water released his whole body and mind. Now that he is at his peak, he must let the B turtle human race opposite him learn a lesson!

When he looked over, he saw that his seat was empty. Chen Dongqing had returned to his seat.

Coach Park frowned.

Lost?

This is a bit disappointing.

He walked quickly back to his seat, but the result shocked him.

A clear "Victory" is displayed on the interface!

what's the situation?

Coach Park was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Why did you suddenly win?"

Chen Dongqing raised his eyebrows: "You only have 4,000 points. If I can't beat you with 4,000 points, then I still have a bad job?"

"No!" Coach Park said in disbelief: "You obviously don't know how to play Zerg!"

Chen Dongqing grew up under Pu Yunlong's eyes. This B has obviously never played a few Zerg games, so where does he have the Zerg proficiency?

Chen Dongqing smiled mysteriously after hearing this, "Who said I can't play?"

Do you understand the value of having all three races’ proficiency levels maxed out?

Pu Yunlong didn't believe in evil, so he sat back down and chose to open the video and take a look.

He had to see how Chen Dongqing crushed his opponent in just over a minute.

Although the tactic of urbanization is disgusting, its disadvantages are also obvious, that is, poor mobility.

So if you use long-range troops such as Brood Lords, plus a little bit of overall perspective and micro-management, you can slowly eat away at human troops and defensive buildings by pulling them.

In LOL, it is to use VN to fight against Nuoshou.

As long as your operation is stable enough, you can still win even if you are two pieces behind Nuoshou.

At the same time, urbanization also places high demands on users.

After all, this is a gameplay that requires high-speed construction for a long time, and it requires a high level of concentration and persistence on the part of the user.

Even if you have a building that is placed in an unreasonable position and there is a gap, the Zerg may take advantage of it.

Park Yunlong dragged the progress bar to the last two minutes and was immediately shocked.

Chen Dongqing's operation is simply a textbook for the Zerg to counter urbanization.

Accurately grasp the weaknesses of the human race's building layout, use mobility to quickly move the battlefield, and frequently harass.

In just half a minute, the human race's construction and expansion were suppressed and forced to pause.

In another half minute, the Zerg began to slowly encroach on the human territory.

In another half minute, the game is over.

In one and a half minutes, he easily defeated the opponent he had not defeated for half an hour.

Although I have witnessed too many non-human scenes of Chen Dongqing.

But this time, Park Yunlong still had to be shocked.

This person's talent is always so disgusting!

Coach Park stood up helplessly, sat next to Chen Dongqing, and began to formally discuss the tour.

Coach Park asked: "Have you seen the format and opponents of this tour?"

Chen Dongqing shook his head: "I didn't read it."

"There's a competition tomorrow and you don't even know who your opponent is?"

"Yeah." Chen Dongqing looked calm.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to check it out, it's mainly because he can't find any information about this game on Baidu.

"." Pu Yunlong sighed and said, "Then let me have a brief chat with you."

"As for the competition system, it is relatively simple. Just like your MSI competition, it is divided into play-in, group stage and knockout stage. But because you are the champion of the Golden League, you are directly promoted to the group stage as a seed player.

"The qualifying round ended yesterday. 16 players have advanced to the group stage. With your 16 seeded players, a total of 32 people will continue to compete in the group stage to compete for the last 16 places in the knockout rounds.

"In the end, sixteen people will gradually advance the schedule through the BO5 knockout round, and finally compete for the final champion through the final BO7. Do you understand this?"

"OK." Chen Dongqing nodded, "It doesn't matter what the competition format is. Anyway, I just have to play according to other people's requirements. What about the players? Are there any masters this time?"

"There must be some masters, but they won't be particularly high." Park Yunlong said: "After all, the tour is mainly for non-Korean players, but non-Korean players are destined not to be top players."

Chen Dongqing pursed his lips slightly when he heard this.

Koreans’ dominance in the game StarCraft is even stronger than that of League of Legends.

Since the Korean e-sports system joined StarCraft, generations of outstanding players have allowed South Korea to maintain its dominance in this project for nearly 20 years. Whether it was the initial WCG or the current WCS, they have never let the champions of top events fall by the wayside.

Therefore, even if the domestic interstellar circle has Chen Dongqing, a top talent who has reached the peak of his debut, domestic players only regard him as hope, and do not really think that he can win the championship.

Park Yunlong took Chen Dongqing's mouse and keyboard and opened a website on his computer, which contained a list of the thirty-two players participating in the group stage.

Among them, ilex, Macsed, iA, and Time, four IDs with CN prefixes, are among them.

The GPL Golden League is divided into four stages. Chen Dongqing only won the first stage. In the second stage, iA and Time reached the finals, so they also obtained the seed qualifications for this tournament.

Park Yunlong pointed to these IDs and continued: "Domestic players will not be considered. The main opponents this time are nothing more than these."

As he spoke, Park Yunlong pointed out several IDs.

Neeb, Showtime, Scarlett, Serral.

Chen Dongqing squinted at these four people. To his surprise, he actually knew two of them.

Scarlett was a character introduced to him by Park Yunlong when he first started playing StarCraft. He was known as a genius and a Canadian insect queen. Within eighteen months of being exposed to StarCraft, he snatched a small and medium-sized competition championship from the Koreans. Has always been called a genius.

Of course, this genius name is a little less interesting in the hands of Chen Dongqing now. But the confrontation between the two in this tour is indeed an interesting point.

Then there is Serral.

This ID is quite special. We didn’t meet Chen Dongqing after playing StarCraft, but before he was reborn.

He remembered that this person was the annual championship in 2018. He was the first non-Korean player to interrupt the dominance of Korean players for more than two decades. In that year, this name was quite famous in the e-sports circle.

The gold content of this championship in the European and American interstellar circles is like that of IG who won the first LPL championship in the same year. It has unprecedented pioneering significance.

But in 2017, this man, like Chen Dongqing, is also a newcomer.

As for the first two, Chen Dongqing was unfamiliar with them.

But Park Yunlong soon began to introduce him: "Showtime, the German God King; Neeb, the American God King; Scarlett, the Canadian Insect Queen; Serral, the Finnish Insect King. From this nickname, you should be able to tell what race they are. .”

Chen Dongqing asked: "Are any of these people in the same group as me?"

"Yes!" Park Yunlong nodded and said, "In tomorrow's group match, Scarlett is in the same group as you, and he is the biggest threat to you."

Chen Dongqing thought for a while and asked, "Is this person a Zerg player?"

"Yes."

Chen Dongqing smiled: "That's okay."

May 29th.

Chen Dongqing put on the QG club uniform again and came to the Shanghai World Expo Center with Park Yunlong.

The venue of this competition is the multi-functional hall of the Shanghai World Expo Center. The entire hall can accommodate 3,000 spectators, which is considered a medium-sized stage.

Things like the grouping ceremony were already settled the day before yesterday when the qualifying rounds were played, so the players in the group stage only need to play according to the schedule.

As soon as Chen Dongqing stepped into the backstage of the arena, he saw a large number of players standing here.

Seeing Chen Dongqing's arrival, many people had something strange in their eyes.

The League of Legends competition is undoubtedly one of the largest e-sports competitions in the world today.

In addition, Riot itself has a plan to create a god Chen Dongqing. With Riot's deliberate promotion, Chen Dongqing's current image is widely rumored around the world.

The news that QG won the MSI championship some time ago has already spread to major e-sports media around the world.

Even StarCraft players have heard about it.

In addition, Riot Games will definitely not promote the crossover of its players into other games.

Therefore, many foreigners do not know that Chen Dongqing is also participating in the interstellar career.

So when they saw Chen Dongqing walking backstage holding the keyboard, they were all wondering, what is this guy doing?

Aren’t you playing LOL?

At this time, the other three people from CN Interstellar also came closer and greeted Chen Dongqing.

"Brother Shu!" Time called Chen Dongqing by his nickname and praised: "I watched the MSI game, it was awesome!"

Chen Dongqing smiled and said: "What's going on? Aren't you supposed to be playing GPL in May? Why do you still have time to watch the game?"

When Chen Dongqing came here, he also searched the results of the second stage of the GPL Golden League on the Internet.

In the second stage, Li Peinan performed quite well. He defeated Macsed, the runner-up in the first stage, and successfully advanced to the finals. Unfortunately, he met his old father iA in the finals and lost again.

Fortunately, the runner-up can also participate in this Shanghai competition.

The four most powerful people in CN Interstellar are all here.

"I just watched the finals. My game was over during the finals." Time said honestly: "I think LOL is quite fun. It's very interesting to watch."

As soon as these words came out, both Hu Xiang and iA's expressions changed.

Although Time has always been a comic character, he was born in June 2000 and is actually the future leader of CN Star.

If Chen Dongqing were to lure him to LOL, it would be a big mistake.

Chen Dongqing was very happy after hearing this: "No, no, no, no, you are the real hope for China's interstellar future, and the world champion is waiting for you!"

Time was full of disbelief: "How can I win the world championship at my level?"

Li Peinan has been playing professionally for two years, and has never even won a domestic championship. He has been taught by iA to be a good person, and his energy has been worn away.

"You know, nothing is impossible in this world." Chen Dongqing patted Li Peinan on the shoulder, "Just keep working hard."

Chen Dongqing's words were always convincing, and Li Peinan felt more heroic in his heart and nodded vigorously.

Time quickly continued to pass and came to the time when the game started.

The schedule of the group stage is very simple. A total of 32 players are divided into eight groups and perform a BO3 double round-robin within the group for six days. In the end, the top two in each group advance to the knockout rounds.

In other words, each person plays a BO3 every day, with a total of 16 BO3s every day. The result will be determined after six days.

As the host's announcement sounded, the first day of competition began quickly.

The order of the competition is also very simple. They come in groups. After the two games of Group A, they go to Group B. Chen Dongqing is in the sixth group, which is Group F. He needs to wait for a while.

Chen Dongqing was not in a hurry and just sat on the chair and watched the big TV backstage with the other contestants.

Chen Dongqing didn't know much about the StarCraft players around him, but that didn't stop him from watching their StarCraft showdown with relish to see how good they were.

But it has to be said that as foreign players, those who can come to Shanghai to play games are obviously the best in their respective countries.

And in recent years, the level of StarCraft in Europe and the United States has obviously surpassed that of domestic players, so Chen Dongqing can clearly see that the tactical level of this group of people is slightly higher than that of domestic players.

But not much higher.

Chen Dongqing looked at the two groups and already had a prediction of the level of these people.

That's it.

It seems that I have to have a try with Korean players.

Just as I was thinking about it, the Group B competition will start soon.

iA stood up, said hello to Chen Dongqing and the other two, and then stepped onto the stage.

His opponent in this game is quite tough. His name is uThermal, a professional player from the Netherlands. Because he often uses one or two sailors or a few gods of death to kill the entire opponent's family, he is nicknamed "Chang Wei", which is "Chang Wei". One of the "Six Gentlemen of Shanghai".

As for how the name "Shanghai Six Gentlemen" came about.

Just a few days ago, during Huang Xudong's live broadcast, the audience asked him about the Shanghai leg of this tour, and asked him whether from a professional perspective, ilex has a high chance of winning.

Huang Xudong waved his hand and immediately gave instructions:

"Ilex is playing MSI in League of Legends this month, and he has to play StarCraft just after returning to China. How can he still be in competitive shape? He is probably just participating for fun."

"I'm telling you, ilex can't win the championship. The champion will definitely be chosen among the six people: Showtime, uThermal, Major, Scarlett, Serral, and Neeb. If the prediction is wrong, I will just go to COSD.va for this year's GPL finals. "

It has always been obvious that CN's interstellar level is not good, so this statement is reasonable.

But because these words were said by a poisonous woman, countless people immediately made fun of them and called the six named by Huang Xudong the "Six Gentlemen of Shanghai."

Of course, poisonous milk is poisonous milk. If these six gentlemen can be named by Xudong Old Fairy, they must be capable.

Chen Dongqing sat on a chair and watched this human-insect showdown.

Logically speaking, iA, as the domestic insect king who has taught Li Peinan many times, should have quite a lot of experience against the human race.

But the richness also depends on the comparison.

When he faced uThermal, the gap became apparent. The routines and experience he had against Li Peinan were not reflected in front of this European player.

The two sides were tied at one to one at first, and then in the third decisive game, iA made a reconnaissance error in the middle of the game and failed to detect the opponent's flank attack, and was eventually penetrated by one.

"It's a pity." Chen Dongqing comforted him when he saw iA coming back.

"It's okay." iA looked calm and didn't worry about it.

For him, failure is normal and winning is a surprise.

Over the years, after failing again and again in international competitions, the disappointment has accumulated to a numbing level.

At this time, in the Star Star Old Boy live broadcast room, Sun Yifeng also sighed softly and said: "iA actually played very well this time, but it was a little bit behind in the mid-term, otherwise he would have really won!"

Huang Xudong looked at the schedule and said, "In this case, we can only place our hope on Teacher Sed. He should be able to help us get our first victory, right?"

After the competition in Group B, the competition in Group C also started soon, and this time there were also domestic players.

Macsed took the stage to face off.

This time Macsed's opponent is an unknown European Protoss player who came through the qualifying rounds.

In theory, Macsed has a good chance of winning.

But after taking the stage, it was shocking.

Because the Protoss has the mechanism of warping, the civil war among the Protoss has always been a stage for fighting.

What matters is creativity and brains.

But unexpectedly, Hu Xiang seemed to be not prepared enough for the opponent's tricks in this game, and was at a huge disadvantage in two consecutive games!

The two games had almost the same plot. Macsed gradually fell into a disadvantage during operation. In the end, the disadvantage became larger and larger, and the game failed.

At this time, the live broadcast room of the event was full of question marks.

"Ah??? What's going on with Mr. Sed?" Huang Xudong shouted in pain in the live broadcast room, "We shouldn't lose!"

After losing this game, the situation of today's game is not optimistic.

After the end of Group C, there was another Group D, and it was not until Group E that domestic players took the stage again.

This time Time is on stage, but his opponent has a bigger backstory.

Serral, the Finnish insect king.

The future world champion and the biggest favorite on this tour.

Time is still far from growing up. He has not even overcome the inner demon of iA, so how can he beat such a top player?

There is no doubt that 0-2, Time lost again.

At home in Shanghai, three domestic players suffered defeats one after another!

This was a big blow to the audience who came specifically to watch the game. Countless spectators shook their heads in the audience.

If ilex still loses later, then they really have to consider whether they want to watch tomorrow's game.

At this time, there were countless discussions in the barrage in Star Old Boy’s live broadcast room.

【send! 】

[Definitely send it, you don’t really think you can win the championship, do you? 】

[This is hard to say, believe Brother Shu! 】

[LOL, can you still believe it, StarCraft? It’s very difficult! 】

"But it's hard for ilex to win!" Huang Xudong frowned and said in the live broadcast room: "His opponent is too tough!"

At this time, the competition in Group E has ended, and we finally came to the sixth group, Group F.

On the right side of the event live broadcast room, you can see the players from both sides of the next game.

ilex versus Scarlett.

One is a top talent who crossed over as the LOL world champion and won the domestic championship within two or three months of being exposed to StarCraft.

One is a recognized genius who has won a mid-sized competition championship from the Koreans after only eighteen months of exposure to StarCraft.

This game can be described as a battle of geniuses.

At this time, backstage, Chen Dongqing had already taken out his peripherals and was preparing to go on stage.

Time, Macsed, and iA quickly came over to cheer Chen Dongqing on.

Chen Dongqing asked with a smile: "I haven't played StarCraft in a few months. Do you really believe in me?"

"You can't do it if you don't believe me!" Macsed smiled bitterly: "We have all sent it, and you are the only one left."

If they lost all four games today, Macsed couldn't imagine how they would be discussed on those e-sports forums.

"Don't worry, just leave it to me." Chen Dongqing said with a smile: "I have never lost against the Zerg."

After saying that, Chen Dongqing quickly stepped onto the stage.

At this time, countless players present also cast their gazes over.

Serral, the Finnish insect king, was also looking at the big screen, staring intently.

They all want to know what kind of strength this LOL world champion has.

After stepping onto the stage, Chen Dongqing saw his opponent.

The person in front of me has a female face, long blond hair, and even the clothes are female.

It has to be said that it is strange for such a female player to appear in an e-sports competition dominated by men.

Chen Dongqing had heard that this person was born intersex and had surgery to confirm his female gender when he was thirteen.

Of course, she still retains some of men's interests, such as playing games, and her level is quite high.

When she first participated in professional competitions, she chose to participate in the women's competition, but she quickly gave up after playing a few games.

Because she felt that the women's competition was too weak and she couldn't be interested at all. In the end, she chose to compete on the same stage as male players, and she also reached the top level.

It can only be said to be quite rare.

This is already the strongest opponent Chen Dongqing has ever encountered on the field. Even if the opponent is a Zerg, he must be prepared.

In the first game, Chen Dongqing operated two ships for a long time, but he still took off on time in 4 minutes and 35 seconds. It was a number engraved in his bones.

Immediately afterwards, the two ships of soldiers acted separately, one ship attacked from the front, and the other ship harassed the flanks. All the spearmen commanded like arms, and it was still a dream-level micro-management!

Scarlett has been in the world for many years, and this is the first time she has seen a skirmisher of this level. She was immediately fascinated, and countless poisonous banelings were put into the pockets of the spearmen.

A wave of duel is enough to establish victory!

Chen Dongqing then performed steadily, and his subsequent troops quickly followed up. In less than ten minutes, he destroyed his opponent in one fell swoop!

In the second game, Scarlett calmed down a little and began to focus on defense.

Chen Dongqing sneered and quickly changed his strategy to focus on economic suppression. Then he accumulated a population of 200 and punched it from the front, easily winning again!

game over!

At this moment, countless spectators opened their mouths in disbelief.

Backstage, the Finnish insect king Serral also stared wide-eyed.

Question marks were raised all over the live broadcast room.

Huang Xudong even said "impossible!"

No one expected it.

In this game that most people were not optimistic about, ilex actually easily swept Scarlett in two games and defended the honor of the home team!

This battle between geniuses seems to have come to an end!

Since I’ve written about the interstellar, let’s write more and advance the plot quickly. Today’s is just 8,000 words.

See you tomorrow, brothers.
