What is a hexagon jungler?

As soon as 12 o'clock in the morning, Hongmi appeared in the training room, urging the players to practice quickly.

Gu Xing quickly withdrew his slightly impetuous thoughts due to the holiday, opened the Hanbok and continued to improve the hero proficiency according to the plan formulated by the head coach.

As for Ding Ran, he asked Lu Wenjun for a computer, and sat in the corner of the training room to score points without disturbing the normal training work.

"We are in the same half area as IG, RNG, and Team Snake, and RNG is the strongest among them," Hongmi briefly emphasized to the team members, "Before the semi-final opponent is determined, I will study RNG as an imaginary enemy first. .”

Although RNG suffered a losing streak at the end of the season.

However, Redmi did not underestimate them. After all, they are the champions of the spring season, and there are also star players in the team. They have very rich experience in the playoffs!

On the other hand, VG, the usual playoffs are the perfect interpretation of Zhongdao's collapse.

It is impossible to have a round trip, and you can often win one.

But if you walk for two rounds at most, you will definitely pull your hips!

Redmi is cautious about this, carefully preparing for fear of making mistakes.

This year's first place in the regular season gave him hope of reaching the global finals.

Last year, the original Samsung Nosuke version of VG was very promising, but it was a pity that they fought hard for five rounds, but were sniped and knocked down by the coal digging duo of IG Broiler and Kakao.

Song Yijin Yasuo's shocking EQ flash successfully brought IG into the game, and also freed the boss Wang Sicong from the dilemma of live broadcasting the old eight-secret Xiaofan Bao-the latter claimed that IG would live broadcast without entering the S5 World Championship.

Broiler can be regarded as saving the face of the boss of IG.

However, as a loser, Redmi will never allow similar incidents to happen this time!

He is determined to win the World Championship tickets!

"I have already made an appointment with my opponent for the training match in the next few days." Hongmi opened her black notebook, and used a marker to transcribe the content on the whiteboard in the center of the room. "Everyone can take a look."

Gu Xing had just defeated the IM jungler Avoidless in the qualifying match. He accepted the friend's invitation from the opponent, chatted for a few words, then took advantage of the gap in the queue to look back, and immediately found something different from before.

The first is the schedule.

Originally in the regular season, the team's training match was fixed as a group at 2:00 pm and a group at 7:00 pm.

Each group claims to play three sets, but in fact, not many teams strictly abide by it.

Just like a team like IG, it may take less than an hour to play three sets plus BP in the training match!

You can't just play three rounds in a daze to complete the work.

Therefore, most clubs, including VG, play steadily for three hours in each training match, and there is no limit on the number of sets, and there will be replays during the period.

Two groups a day, that is, six hours, and the rest of the time is spent playing ranked or watching videos.

And now Redmi has added an extra set of training matches for them!

"From ten o'clock in the evening to one o'clock in the morning, we mainly invite teams from the LCK side," he explained the reason to the players, "We have too many systems to practice, and we have to train more..."

After listening to Jin Wenhyuk's translation, Gu Xing nodded to express his understanding.

Redmi originally formulated several sets of tactics according to the version when the playoffs were approaching, and clearly planned the training time.

As a result, Gu Xing suddenly proposed to imitate ROX's wild core style of play. This was a surprise, but it was also a burden for the team.

Practice new tactics extra, if you don't practice more, it will inevitably squeeze the running-in time of other systems!

Several teammates also expressed that Sister Li.

Since the team's only lazy dog ​​Imp resumed high-intensity training, everyone in the VG competition training department is a hardworking boy.

If the results are poor, the players have little motivation.

But VG's performance is quite outstanding now, and the players are full of enthusiasm, so naturally they have no objection to the extra training!

Compared with the previous ones, the second characteristic of VG's current training games is that the opponents are relatively fixed.

Inside the league are EDG, IM, and WE that belong to different playoff halves.

Because VG and them can only meet in the finals, there is no burden to make appointments for training matches, and you can use running tactics to run the team.

If you make an appointment with a team in the same region during the playoffs, there is a risk of leaking secrets, and everyone will not be able to achieve training effects if they hide it.

The outer competition area is South Korea's ROX and SSG.

Although the Tigers relied on their points advantage, they became the first team in the five major regions to secure a place in the World Championship.

But they are no slouch.

For ROX, there is one more meaningful thing than entering the global finals.

The Tigers have a reason to beat SKT!

In the 2015 LCK Spring Finals, the Tigers were swept out by SKT where Hou Ye played.

In the finals of the 2015 World Championship, the Tigers lost to SKT where Faker played. Before the game, it was generally considered that there was no suspense. Their greatest achievement was to see what the SKT highlands looked like for the other 14 participating teams.

In the 2016 LCK Spring Finals, ROX was once again swept away by SKT with a score of 1:3!

In the three major tournaments, the Tigers have never won against SKT!

More importantly, apart from Peanut, who only joined the team at the end of 2015, the other four ROX players have all experienced these three fiascos!

Now the ROX players are suffocating in their hearts, wanting to prove themselves in this summer split and defeat SKT!

For this reason, they trained extraordinarily hard, and also extended the joint training time until late at night.

...

"Turn left!"

Gu Xing followed the instructions of the staff, and turned sideways to face the camera.

The other teammates standing around also followed suit.

The 7 contestants put on a serious face, combed their hair to look like an adult, shaved and put on makeup, they looked like different people in peacetime.

"OK OK..."

Hearing the director's instruction, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as Gu Xing was about to step down to drink water, he heard the director follow up.

"Virtue and Easyhoon, you two stay here and take a few more pictures alone!"

This is the shooting site for playoff promotional videos, posters and other materials.

The VG club set aside a day of training for the players to assist the league in carrying out promotional activities.

Gu Xing had been filming for two hours before, and his legs were inevitably sore from standing all the time.

However, with the idea that he has already come, he is still obedient, and keeps making friends with the on-site staff.

Gu Xing's social skills have always been good, but the camera brother was so teased by him that he almost lost his grip on the machine.

"Be serious, let's finish the filming first..." The director signaled VG Nakano to stand closer, "You can improvise and pose!"

Gu Xing discussed with Lord Hou for a while, and finally the two stood side by side, stretched out their arms that were close together towards the camera, and hooked their knuckles upwards, posing a gesture of 'bring the horse over here'.

Jack, who was already resting under the stage, saw the gestures made by the two, and said something to several other teammates, and the group of people suddenly laughed and laughed.

Goo Sung Bin, whose body is out of shape and is about to become an Omp, bared his teeth like a fat mouse.

The VG summer team uniform is a more slim-fitting style. Imp can wear it with the feeling of a small belly. When he laughs, the fat in his abdomen trembles, a bit like Fat Buu in Dragon Ball.

Thinking of this, Gu Xing almost laughed out loud.

After taking several photos in a row, he was finally declared free by the director, told the surrounding staff that he had worked hard, and hurried to the audience.

First pick up Coke Ton Ton and take three sips in a row, and then go to pull Jack up.

"Hurry up, the incense pot is waiting!"

According to the previous agreement, the seven wolves are going to hold their first meeting today.

Gu Xing and Lu Wenjun reported that the manager knew that there was no training plan for the evening, and he also wanted the players to relax a little bit. Don't keep tense. If the high pressure continues to the end, it is easy to go too far.

Lu Wenjun just asked the team members to return to the base before ten o'clock in the evening.

The two agreed, and saw the positioning initiated by other people in the chat of the seven wolves. They were in a Thai restaurant in Hongqiao Tiandi, and rushed over after a short while.

"Long time no see, Brother Xing!"

Lin Weixiang is as naive as ever, but his voice is no longer baby-like, and his voice is much thicker.

Liu Qingsong and Beethoven stood behind, their expressions slightly awkward when they greeted Gu Xing.

Their personalities are different from Lin Weixiang's.

Previously, Gu Xing and Gu Xing only met once during the trial training, and spent the rest of the time online, so the relationship is not particularly close after all.

Now the opponent is doing well in the LPL league, but he is still unknown.

The huge gap in fame seems to have separated a layer of sad thick barriers between several people, giving birth to a strange sense of distance.

Gu Xing saw the restraint of the other party, and immediately came forward with a smile and greeted, "What are you two doing, pretending to be cold and ignoring others, right?"

"No..." Seeing that Gu Xing took the initiative to talk, Liu Qingsong relaxed a little, showing a smile, "Long time no see, I've almost become your fan after watching your game!"

Lin Weixiang grabbed Jack in front of him.

"I'm going, you have such young teeth?" His two thick eyebrows seemed to be able to speak, and they kept stirring, "I was not as young as you when I was 15 years old!"

Lin Weixiang, a master fortune teller, is just over 1.8 meters tall, only a little shorter than Gu Xing.

Jack is definitely less than 1.7 meters now - Gu Xing is very sure about this number, because he is not as tall as Gu Pan who is 169.

"Get rolling," Yu Wenbo angrily pushed Lin Weixiang's wide palm away from the top of his head, "My buddy still has a lot of room for improvement in height, as the saying goes, twenty-three is still sprinting!"

Gu Xing said hello to Xiangguo, then turned his gaze to the last person.

"Shi Senming?"

Gu Xing asked uncertainly.

The face of the person in front of him was harmless to humans and animals, and he seemed non-aggressive.

Thin body, wearing short sleeves in summer, can be easily distinguished from the exposed forearm, the other party is only a little fatter than the bony Xiangguo.

"Hee hee hee..." He smiled like a flower.

Hearing this classic laughter, Gu Xing immediately confirmed his guess just now.

Before playing professional games, Shi Senming was always smiling every time he chatted and played games, and would blow on the microphone from time to time. After listening for a long time, Gu Xing almost had a stress reaction.

The 7 people first stood in two rows according to their height, and asked the waiter to help take a group photo and sent it to the group chat of the seven wolves. Jack @was not present, [Put your body up, the first group photo in the group] There it is! 】

Among the seven wolves, the well-known kings in the national costumes such as Wudan and Little Follower have not come to the professional arena so far, and they are still doing live broadcasts in other places, so it is really difficult to get out of the field.

They simply sent a few red envelopes in the group to cheer them on.

Seeing that everyone was scrambling for money, Lin Weixiang couldn't wait, "Brothers, let's order first?"

"The curry coconut chicken in this Thai restaurant is very good," Liu Qingsong offered to recommend, "The last time I came to Mingkai's game, he brought me to eat, and the soup mixed with rice is absolutely amazing!"

Gu Xing took a special look at the menu and found that there were a lot of fish and shrimp in the Thai food. Thinking of Yu Wenbo's allergies, he only reminded everyone to order less seafood.

"Jack, why don't you eat this spicy fried beef? It looks okay."

When Yu Wenbo heard the beef, he nodded his head like pounding garlic.

Xiangguo is free to find someone to chat with.

"Shi Senming, you lost the relegation match, will you continue to fight next year?"

Gu Xing, who was lowering his head to check the drinks on the menu, froze the nib of his pen.

It can only be said that Xiangguo's emotional intelligence is always online, and its performance is extremely stable.

Yesterday, YM, where Shi Senming worked, just lost five rounds in the relegation match. Gu Xing watched the live broadcast on the way back to Shanghai by train.

Xiangguo started with a word, first uncovering Xiao Ming's scars.

"Should be able to rush..." Shi Senming was also not sure, sighed and didn't know what to do.

With all his efforts and calculations, he also spent a year in the Shanghai stock market, struggling in the secondary leagues, and his original ambitions were almost wiped out.

Before MGB changed its name to YM, Shi Senming had been in the team, pure veteran of the team.

He didn't want to go.

Shi Senming always felt owed for not bringing the team to the LPL.

"You guys are so unlucky," Xiangguo said mercilessly, "What kind of precious things are you playing in the spring and summer games?"

This spring, YM ranked second in the LSPL regular season and runner-up in the playoffs.

Gu Xing's old friend ranked first and got the direct LPL spot.

IM.

In the secondary league, they were called EDE, the EDG second team with a strong root!

Except for Athena, they are the original team who are now fighting for the LPL!

AJ, Avoidless, and Golden Horn are all above-average players in the top leagues. Playing LSPL is no different from boosting!

The members of the coaching staff are Sun Dayong, former LGD analyst Firefox, and Gouba.

These three are naturally not comparable to top coaches such as Redmi, Edgar, and Kkoma in the international arena, but they are completely sufficient in China.

Not to mention playing in the secondary league!

In LSPL in 2016, everyone didn't even understand the concept of coaching. They were generally used as takeaway testers to see which food was more delicious.

EDE's lineup, from the players to the coaching staff, has completely reduced the dimensionality of LSPL!

YM, which had just been established for half a year, was a bunch of brats at the time, with no experience at all, so it was reasonable that they couldn't beat IM.

However, it follows the competition system of the secondary league.

In addition to a league champion going directly to the LPL, other top-ranked teams can also participate in the relegation match. As long as they beat the rookie team in the LPL, they can still replace their top league spots.

YM was facing HYG, but they made a mistake at the last moment in the five fierce battles, and fell one step away from LPL!

"Killer 17, this B is really hateful!" Shi Senming gritted his teeth, "Torturized us twice!"

"Huh?" Gu Xing felt that the name was a bit familiar, as if he had heard it from Hirano Ling and Gao Dewei, "So he was mainly playing Yasuo?"

"Yes, that's the hanging man, Yasuo, who was known as the number one top laner in the national server back then, played in LGD for a while," Shi Senming nodded repeatedly, "This year's top laner of HYG in the spring split won us in the relegation match, and ran again in summer Go to NBY and be our regular season opponent!"

In the summer split, YM's biggest competitor in the secondary league is NBY.

Top laner Killer 17, jungler Clid, mid laner Doinb, sitting on three generals, NBY's strength in the upper half of the LSPL is so strong that it tilts its head!

Especially mid laner Doinb.

After the Nakano split, he ran to the secondary league as the Tongtian generation.

In a total of 29 rounds, Doinb hit an average damage of 768 points, and the team's output accounted for 33.9%. Both statistics ranked first in the league!

YM was vulnerable in front of them, and was defeated in minutes!

Thinking about it, I know that when Doinb was in QG back then, he was talking and laughing with top mid laners like Fat General and Song Yijin. As for the mid laners in the secondary league, adding one is not enough for him.

As a result, Killer Seventeen sent YM out again in the same year!

Listening to Shi Senming's complaints, Gu Xing held back his laughter the whole time.

YM's tragic experience really makes people feel that they have moved - they can't help it.

"It's called winning twice, win-win!" Jack teased Shi Senming with Gu Xing's theory.

"As for the relegation match this time, you all know," Xiao Ming shrugged helplessly, "The old thief Sima and Icon are really ruthless."

YM's opponent in yesterday's relegation match was Planet Light OMG.

The level of this team is definitely not low.

When meeting VG in the summer game, he once relied on his single-handed attention to details to arrest Imp, who was in extremely poor condition, and forced Gu Shengbin to the bench, which led to Yu Wenbo's top position in the second half.

The double C of Icon and the old thief Sima, paired with Xiaowu, a very spiritual support, is not bad on paper. The main reason for OMG's unsatisfactory results is that he was confused in the middle and late stages, and couldn't handle operations.

But that's a disadvantage compared to LPL-level teams.

If you play against an LSPL-level team, the enemy may not even be able to survive the laning period and will collapse!

It is said that Icon will be given away later, but YM can't delay until then!

You must know that Icon showed his limelight in LPL by relying on single-handed laning kills, the intensity can be imagined!

Coupled with an old thief Sima, OMG easily destroyed YM!

"Didn't go in four times, why are you so unlucky!" Lin Weixiang smiled with great joy.

Shi Senming was very depressed in retrospect, "Sometimes it is really... just such a chance, if you don't grasp it, it will be gone."

In all fairness, YM's opponents on the way to promotion four times - IM, HYG, NBY, OMG, Shi Senming and others' real chance is HYG.

That is the team with the weakest overall strength.

The other three teams all have at least one LPL star-level thigh, which is not something LSPL can compete with at all.

Jack poured Coke into the cup, and picked up a chopstick of curry chicken by the way, "Speaking of which, you are greedy..."

Lin Weixiang, who was still laughing at Shi Senming just now, changed his face at the speed of light.

Xiao Ming began to smile familiarly again, "Oh, I don't know who can even lose the relegation match?"

Liu Qingsong's expression collapsed in an instant.

"Tell us quickly, what's going on with Dong Xiaosa's essay?" Shi Senming tried to ignite the fire.

"Ai, it's just a misunderstanding!" Liu Qingsong opened his mouth.

Gu Xing was on the sidelines as a spectator.

Not that he didn't want to interrupt.

But the topic is too sensitive.

This year's summer split, Shi Senming failed to enter the top league, at least he made some name in the circle.

As for the gluttonous and sa people, what was left was a mess.

Not only is the team relegated, but they will also not be able to participate in the TGA next spring. Dong Xiaosa has not yet appeared on the stage to fulfill his dream of a professional player, and it will be time to wake up from the dream in a blink of an eye!

Back and forth, Gluttony Sa threw in about a million dollars, but it was in vain!

After failing in the relegation match, Dong Xiaosa was furious and complained on Weibo that the players were lazy in training and didn't want to make progress at all.

Dong Xiaosa usually doesn't show his mountains and dews, but he is also a veritable ancient-level anchor of the alliance. At that time, this news rushed to Weibo's hot search.

A Weibo made him, Gluttony Sa and other team members into incompatible opposites!

In the follow-up, the gluttonous Sa team members also fought back one after another, angrily denouncing what Dong Xiaosa said was not true.

Gu Xing and Dong Xiaosa have a good relationship.

Before coming to the party this time, he also asked specifically, and the news he got from Dong Xiaosa was that the conflict was almost resolved.

The team was disbanded on the spot, and the players' contracts were terminated.

Guessing that the two sides had reached an agreement, Dong Xiaosa also took the initiative to help several team members find their next homes.

As for how to talk about it, he didn't say, and Gu Xing wisely didn't ask.

But the result is this result.

Only then did Gu Xing feel relieved and came to the appointment.

"What are you guys going to do next offseason?" He changed the subject.

Beethoven, who had been invisible just now, said, "Dong Xiaosa helped arrange trial training for several LPL teams. We are going to find a cheaper hotel nearby to stay in, so that we can rush there directly when there is trial training, so as not to run around ..."

Jack hadn't spoken for a while, so he took the opportunity to fill his stomach to 80% full. The spicy stir-fried beef is really appetizing, and it's a must with curry chicken and rice!

At this time, he burped before opening his mouth.

"You can watch the playoffs and cheer us on!"

Shi Senming asked a very sharp question, "What if VG and RNG meet together? You are in the same half area, who should I support?"

Liu Qingsong thought of a brilliant idea, "It's okay, the teams from the lower half will most likely play against EDG in the final."

"I will be your fan for ten years!"

Gu Xing was very surprised, "Don't you and Ming Kai have a good relationship, why are you so eager for EDG to lose?"

He took a piece of moon shrimp cake, the signature dish. It was fried golden and crispy on the outside, and the shrimp meat inside was very tender. It burst into two textures at the same time, and after being dipped in hot and sour sauce, the taste was extremely rich and delicious.

Liu Qingsong took out his mobile phone and showed him the chat records.

"Ming Kai said that this year's summer championship is definitely his, and EDG has already begun to study the final opponent..."

The teams that belong to the same upper half as EDG are IM, GT and WE, and it seems that they really can't put much pressure on them.

It can only be said that EDG does have inflated capital.

"Besides, Ming Kai made a bet with me that if he doesn't win the summer championship, he will treat me to a meal and give me a big red envelope!" Liu Qingsong was very excited, wishing to see the arrogant Ming Kai deflated.

"When you meet Ming Kai in the final, you must step up your efforts!" He tried to share the spoils, "Let's split the red envelope!"

"Why is it only 70%?" Gu Xing continued.

Liu Qingsong was stunned for a moment, then blinked before answering, "You get 30% and 70% is mine."

Lin Weixiang put his arms around Gu Xing's shoulders, "For those who came out of our group, the secondary league has been wiped out. The members of the LPL must go to the end, right?"

Xiangguo showed his fighting spirit, "The spring competition educated a wave of Ming Kai, it seems that he doesn't have a long memory, and I have to deal with him again when I get to the finals!"

When he said this, he had a face full of duty.

"Xiangguo, you don't think you can beat Lao Gu, do you? You still touch the factory manager, I think you don't have any AC points in your heart!" Jack is worthy of being Eddie, and his basic skills of making up the knife are very solid.

Hearing this sentence, Xiangguo immediately lost his composure, and rushed forward to hold Yu Wenbo down, "I'll silence you first today!"

Immediately there were screams in the room.

Gu Xing watched the group of friends slapstick while he leisurely took two mouthfuls of rice.

...

"Axi, why did the blind monk appear here?"

The skinny little Peanut huddled in the chair, staring at the monitor in disbelief.

He has no room for manipulation.

Gu Xing's blind monk slapped the floor to deal some damage first, R [Raptor Tail] kicked him to the wall, followed by a basic attack by the way!

Then the blind muay thai monk with red eyes threw Tian Yinbo!

Little Peanut in mid-air had no ability to dodge, and could only watch helplessly as he was hit by the sound wave.

Immediately afterwards, the killing damage of the blind monk's second-stage echo strike cut off all vitality!

The top laner, Smeb, was concentrating on fighting against Brother Long, but when he heard Peanut's yelling and the kill notification voice, he realized that in just two seconds, his jungler was solo-killed in the jungle!

"(What)?" He was stunned, "Has anyone deliberately counted, this is the number of times Wang Hao has been arrested tonight?"

Little Peanut, whose real name is Han Wanghao, also felt embarrassed and could only scratch his head trying to pretend nothing happened.

Pray, the big brother in the team, teased his teammates, "Not once, not twice...but three times, Wang Hao!"

"You were caught three times in the jungle in one night," the always good-tempered support GorillA smiled gently, "Wang Hao, are you delirious?"

Peanut retorted dissatisfied, "I also caught Virtue three times, okay? It's 50-50, and I often kill him solo!"

He was still typing on the public screen to interact with Gu Xing, [Bravo (great)! 】

Such praise got Gu Xing an expression - ^^.

Little Peanut rallied and wanted to try to take revenge after being resurrected, only to hear a sizzling sound.

All electrical appliances, including the players' computers, stopped working in an instant!

Several monitors went black, and members of the Tigers could use the screens as mirrors to see their own faces clearly!

The main engine that lost its power support lost its light together with the chandelier.

The room suddenly became invisible, and the night outside the window spread.

"Ah, why is this again..." Several contestants complained in a low voice, but quickly calmed down.

The more I've experienced it, the more I've gotten used to it.

"Sejin Oni!" Smeb raised his voice, "The room is out of electricity!"

"I know," a woman with a gentle face hurriedly walked in from outside the house, "Lu Zhe, tell the other side first, I'll go and see what's going on."

She called Nofe, head coach of ROX. He wore a pair of glasses and looked elegant and easy-going.

"It's too dark outside, why don't I go..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the woman, "You don't know how to do this, just go and inform others honestly!"

Originally, she spoke in a soft voice, but after working as a manager at ROX for more than a year, her style of acting has also become vigorous and vigorous.

Nofe was yelled at, and looked back at his team members in embarrassment, and found that they turned on the flashlight function of their mobile phones for simple lighting, and they were smiling teasingly at him.

It is not a secret in the ROX team that the manager and the head coach are in love.

Facing his younger brothers, Nofe immediately held his head high and showed his majesty, "What are you looking at? Take a break now, and you have to train when the call comes later!"

Several contestants tacitly laughed and laughed.

Little Peanut lay on a second-hand gaming chair, recalling tonight's training match in his mind.

A total of four rounds were played. In the first three rounds, ROX led 2-1, and suffered a blackout in the fourth round.

In other words, today's training match between the two sides ended in a draw.

This is unique in the previous training matches between ROX and VG!

Since VG took leave, the two teams have been dating for three consecutive days, and Little Peanut has witnessed the progress of the other side with his own eyes!

You know, they only officially hooked up with VG in the second half of the regular season.

At the beginning, VG's winning rate in the training match was only about 30%. In the eyes of ROX, it was a medium-strong team, not strong enough to attract enough attention from them.

Now the winning rate has risen a little bit, and it is about to be evenly divided with ROX!

"Virtue's style of play has become so strange..."

Little Peanut always felt a little weird.

In today's 4 rounds of training, he and Gu Xing fought inextricably in the jungle!

As I said, both sides found the right time to invade the wild area and killed the opponent three times!

Under normal circumstances, due to map restrictions in the wild, direct counter-kills rarely erupt.

However, in just 4 rounds of training, the two junglers made a total of 6 solo kills, which was bloody enough!

The more Little Peanut thought about it, the more wrong he became.

When he first made an appointment with VG, Gu Xing was still in a state of being beaten passively, and sporadic resistance could not cause much trouble under ROX's violent offensive.

And at that time, Gu Xing liked to fight against the wild against time, not to engage in direct conflict, but to grab wild monster resources.

But in the past few days of preparing for the playoffs, the opponent's style of play has become fierce and fierce to the naked eye, and the intention to seek confrontation is undisguised!

In addition, the overall linkage of VG has been greatly enhanced, the team is integrated, and the jungler is the absolute core of the attack!

An idea suddenly popped up in Little Peanut's heart.

Why is Virtue's style so similar to myself?

I hit myself? !

Peanut was very confused and couldn't figure it out.

Now that the power is off, he can't watch the video, and he can't prove his idea.

Far away in the VG base in Haowangshan, Shanghai.

"Power outage?" Gu Xing asked subconsciously after hearing Hongmi's talk about the sudden accident at the ROX base, "It's not Wan Wan, what else is there?"

"Hmm..." Redmi pondered for two seconds, "The lines in the community where ROX is located are quite aging, and power outages are not uncommon."

Jack didn't play the training match today, he was gnawing on a piece of corn on his seat, and curiously asked the coach, "Then why don't you go to a better community?"

"No money!" Hongmi's answer sounded right at first glance.

But Gu Xing noticed a loophole in the logic, "The world runner-up in S5 is also the runner-up in the league this spring. Why is there no money?"

This result is not bad in any competition area. Logically speaking, there should be no shortage of sponsors.

"Fist's West Eighth policy," said Ku Sung-bin, who played a training match all night. He felt sore and backache, stood up and moved his body, breathing out the fragrance by the way, "Don't allow the same club to have two teams in the same league, disband There were a bunch of teams, and OGN was in a mess at that time!"

Riot implements this policy mainly to increase the activity of the event, and also to avoid the chaos of cheating after the same club meets in the arena.

In the S4 season, SKT's S team (Manin, Easyhoon, wolf stick combination) met K team (Faker, Bengi, Zhurang, etc. players), and there were rumors that the same club deliberately lost the game.

Even if OGN releases the recording of the game to clarify afterwards, netizens always feel that there is something tricky in it.

Riot specially issued restrictions for this purpose.

This policy seems healthy and reasonable now, but many people could not accept it at the time.

Especially pro players.

A large number of OGN teams merged, and a monster-level team like 2015SKT was born. It also made more players unemployed and forced to embark on the road of re-employment!

Goo Sung Bin was extremely dissatisfied with this, because his team Samsung White had just won the championship, and when they came back, they were disbanded because of the policy and salary issues.

If it wasn't for the optimistic team handing him an olive branch at that time, it would be difficult to find a job in the local area because of Imp's mouth that offended most of the Korean LOL circle.

Except for the Samsung players, he basically sprayed a few words, the LCK club bought Gu Sungbin because he was afraid that the team would not be chaotic, and that his teammates would not be able to fight!

"The Tigers were formed by Gori llA..." Hou Ye was still in the LCK last year, and he has a certain understanding of this part of history, so he said now.

Gu Xing understood after listening.

The establishment of the Tigers must have 1/3 of the credit for OMG.

In the S4 global finals, the leading brother Gogoing led his younger brother to easily eliminate Na Ji n White Shield 3-0, creating the history of the first time in LPL history to eliminate a strong Korean team in the World Series 5.

At that time, except for the Korean second brother Ggoong who insisted on choosing Jie, and the beautiful boy Watch.

The support is Gori llA!

After that game, the humiliating defeat nearly destroyed the whole team at the Korean Open.

Following Riot's policy of 'clubs can only have one team in the top league', Najib n White Shield and Black Sword merged.

Gori llA, who performed mediocre in the World Championship, naturally lost his job.

Not the same as Imp.

Gerila is a good old man who can get along well in the circle.

Open grandpa?

Father come out and do it alone!

He took a completely different path from Imp.

Greila brought together a group of comrades who also lost their jobs and formed the first batch of Tigers to compete in the LCK again!

A group of frustrated people came together, and it is conceivable that no one was optimistic about the Tigers at first.

Naturally no sponsors came to them.

In the end, it was China’s Huanju Era, whose subsidiary Huya, which was trying to expand its business in Korea, sponsored the Tigers.

However, the performance of the Tigers is booming, but the layout of the Happy Era in South Korea has repeatedly hit the wall.

Since last summer, the investment in the team has been gradually reduced.

"You can't even pay for the air ticket to the World Championship?" It was the first time Gu Xing heard of such a fantastic thing.

Lord Hou nodded slightly, "Finally, Riot and Kespa... that is, our professional e-sports association paid for the travel expenses, and the Tigers went to Europe."

"With achievements and fame later, the Tigers have missed the best time to attract sponsorship."

In 2015, various companies interested in investing in the e-sports industry took advantage of OGN's renaming to LCK and the reorganization of teams, and sponsored many teams.

At that time, the Tigers, which no one was optimistic about, could only barely survive on the investment of YY Times.

As a result, in 2016, the Tigers gained a lot of popularity thanks to their runner-up finish in the World Championship.

Yet no one wants to invest in them.

Because the vast majority of sponsors have completed their layout in 15 years, investing in teams for advertising and dissemination, based on the easy-to-understand principle of diminishing marginal utility, they don't need to sponsor another team!

This has also led to the fact that ROX now only has a few small investors, who cannot afford to rent luxury houses and cannot live in their own buildings like Samsung and SKT.

As a last resort, the Tigers had to go to the old community to rent a house as a base to save costs, and had to endure the power outage.

"well……"

Gu Xing had mixed feelings in his heart.

It really makes him sad that a team of ROX's level is doing so badly in a country with a very developed e-sports industry like South Korea.

After thinking about it, a group of players can unite together, despite living in poverty, they are still positive, trying to attack the most famous devil king in the history of the League of Legends, it seems a bit lonely and brave.

He recalled the first eighteen years of his life and was greatly moved by it.

"The ROX has power, let's start another round," Hongmi hung up the phone and came back to inform the team members, "It's better to run the wild core, Xiao Gu, you performed well in the last round, keep playing like this!"

Gu Xing quickly pulled his attention back, ready to take the training match seriously.

Originally, he attached great importance to ROX, and knowing the situation of the Tigers from his teammates made Gu Xing feel a little more respectful.

In his opinion, the best way to show respect to your opponent is to do your best!

Hongmi stood behind Gu Xing, watching his jungle route all the way.

Although Redmi is not a jungler, I have never eaten pork and seen pigs running!

After being a coach for so many years, I am very sensitive to the engine position of the jungle team.

Redmi can clearly notice the progress of Gu Xing and the team.

Can compete with ROX, he is full of confidence in the next playoffs!

I just don't know, who will break into the semi-finals in the second half and become the first lucky one to taste the wild core style of VG!

The 2016 LPL schedule is very tight.

Not long after the end of the regular season, the relegation match and the playoffs kicked off one after another!

In the first playoff game, IG faced RNG.

It was a completely one-sided crushing situation.

Song Yijin, president of IG, was firmly locked online by Xiaohu and could not move.

In just 15 minutes, the upper and lower side lanes and the wild area were directly blown through!

Moreover, there is still a rule in the current LPL playoff system-the side with the higher pick can lead a small game when the eight enters the six.

In other words, RNG leads with a small score of one to zero first!

It is said that if you lead endlessly, the damage will be particularly high.

RNG leads directly by a small point!

This made the first playoff game lose all suspense!

RNG finally swept IG 3-0 to advance to the next round!

Immediately afterwards, when IM fell behind by a small point, he won three games in a row and overturned GT!

Dean Jin Gong was helpless.

He chose three sets of Carry-type characters including the captain.

It's a pity that under the impregnable defense of IM, it is useless!

The next day, RNG started a fierce battle with the Snakes.

The royal family swept away the losing streak at the end of the regular season, and the three armies' fate was in full swing, causing many supporters to call for RNG's comeback!

Ding Huang was directly pierced by Uzi, and he couldn't even stand under the tower!

The eliminated snake team can only go to the bubbling match to bet on the last place to advance to the world championship.

They witnessed Ding Huang's poor performance, and even planned to wait for the bubbling match to carry the injured Crystal brother up to fight the fire.

On the other hand, the most suspenseful match in the playoffs was between WE and IM.

The average duration of a whole wave of 5 is 44 minutes and 30 seconds. Not to mention the full 5 rounds, there was an accident in the middle that caused a long timeout!

Playing from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., the players on the field were almost exhausted. WE made a narrow move and defeated Athena in the ancient dragon team battle, successfully taking away the victory!

So far, the matchup of the semi-finals of the LPL Summer Games has completely surfaced!

The semi-finals will be EDG vs. WE, and RNG vs. VG, competing for two seats leading to the final!

...

August 14.

There was light rain pattering in the sky.

Gu Xing shook off the water droplets on the umbrella, and followed his teammates into the backstage passage with big strides.

"Old Gu, are you panicking?" Jack looked up at Gu Xing's well-balanced jawline.

Gu Xing walked into the lounge, took out the peripherals from his bag, and handed them over to the staff to check for any violations. He replied seriously, "It's not necessary to panic, it just... feels pressured."

He watched the game yesterday.

The moment the IM base crystal was bulldozed, the five players who had endured for 6 hours were downcast, and even the light in their eyes was completely extinguished.

Gu Xing saw the cruelty of the playoffs for the first time.

Only one chance.

The loser can only bid farewell to the game with the regret of the whole summer!

Even a self-confident person like Gu Xing rarely felt the pressure!

Losing the game will not only affect himself.

And a whole bunch of teams!

"It's okay, I'm here to carry today!" Gu Shengbin assured, patting his chest in half-baked Mandarin.

The day before yesterday, Redmi decided to let Imp play in the semi-finals based on the results of the training match.

It can only be said that the rehabilitation effect is unexpectedly good.

And when VG met RNG in the last game of the regular season, Jack was still a little green against Uzi, and his team battle operations were impetuous and reckless.

In contrast, the veteran Imp has a wealth of experience in major competitions, and will definitely be able to make a difference in the stable playoffs!

Before the game, Hongmi was massaging Gu Xing's shoulders and neck, muttering a few words by the way.

"We're still at the Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center today. Just play the semi-finals as if it were a regular-season wave of 3." He tried to ease the burden on his own jungler. "Let's win two games first!"

After Jin Wenhyuk finished translating, he added another sentence, "Xiao Gu, if you show your training level, we will definitely win!"

Gu Xing took a few deep breaths, and after receiving the notification from the staff, he took over the keyboard and mouse after inspection and was ready to go on stage!

The layout of the competition venue is no different from that of the regular season.

But it feels different to him.

Gu Xing repeatedly comforted himself that this was just a psychological effect.

The audience is full of seats, and the sound of restlessness fills the eardrums!

He turned on the sound-isolating earphones and gently buckled them on both ears.

The noisy sound of the auditorium was mostly cut off.

All that's left is the familiar white noise.

Gu Xing took a sip of ice water to calm down his thoughts completely.

After two months of hard work, VG won the semi-final tickets.

Whether we can go further depends on today's wave 5!

11,000 words, okay?

Continue to the big chapter tomorrow.

PS: Some readers in the chapter said that there are too many daily routines, and it doesn't look like an e-sports article.

But really not that much.

The daily sum of the previous chapters is about 3W words. According to the author's writing method, it is about one and a half rounds of wave 3.

It seems procrastination is much less.

It is indeed more uncomfortable to follow up, and I have to say sorry to this part of the readers.

If you look at it from the beginning, if it is coherent, this part of the problem will be much smaller.

And I think that daily life is not considered water, and it is five or six thousand words a chapter to pick and choose, so I have to sort out the two lines of emotion and family.

This is the line buried in the front, and it is also useful in the back.

Include this chapter.

A lot of things have been laid out, which will be used in future plots to make the plot fuller, instead of piled up with dry competitions, making the players look like tool people.

Thank you for the 6,500 starting point coin reward from 'Xiaoming classmate 0', and thank you for the 5,000 starting point coin reward for "Holding your head and saying your stomach hurts"!
