What is a hexagon jungler?

San Francisco local time on the evening of October 1st.

Gu Xing opened the curtains of the training room and glanced at the sky, and found that the dark clouds there were extremely gloomy, as if completely covering the entire city, and the sun's rays were pitifully scarce.

The boss, Ding Jun, pushed the door open and came in, holding several black umbrellas that were as dark as the sky, "When you leave, take two more, don't get wet..."

Jin Wenhyuk, who was sorting out the team's admission documents, quickly got up and put away his umbrella.

Today's VG game is the last game, they can wait until 7:00 pm before going to the municipal auditorium.

Redmi beside him is still replaying the details of last night's training match with Lord Hou.

Manager Lu Wenjun stared at the live broadcast of the game on his monitor.

On the third match day, the battle between European and American enemies in Group A, C9 and G2, is currently underway.

Now it seems that C9 has a lot of advantages.

G2 Bot lane Zven's state is very average, the game lasted only 12 minutes, he was pushed flat by the opponent Sneaky!

The absolute core of the team, Perkz, didn't get any advantage when facing Jensen.

Losing the game seems to be a matter of course.

The moment the base was shattered, all members of G2 raised their faces and said nothing.

Even though they are nicknamed the European Optimistic Family, they couldn't stand the three-game losing streak at the beginning!

Unless there is a sudden explosion in the second round of the group stage, the other three teams in the same group must cooperate very well in order to have the possibility of competing for the qualifying spot in the playoff!

The next game is a battle of focus.

RNG vs. ROX.

The opening day of the opening day of the two teams in Group B is truce, so now it is only their second group match.

Both sides had won a victory before, but RNG was obviously more difficult.

They have not yet discussed a reasonable solution to solve the problem of tactical focus.

And Xiaohu didn't know if it was because he was not acclimatized. After arriving in San Francisco, his competitive level immediately dropped several levels, and he was crushed under the tower by Kuro.

Looper on the top road was under the strong pressure from Smeb, the TOP1 player in this year's World Championship, but it was difficult to maintain the balance of the line.

Today's Xiangguo is even more lost in the face of Little Peanut.

The violent style of play he was proud of was like a flat boat under Peanut's offensive frenzy, and he couldn't find a way to counterattack at all!

RNG finally relied on the bot lane combination and couldn't stand up.

Uzi and Mata have only been together for half a year, and the degree of tacit understanding is not as good as that of the ROX duo, not to mention that the two elders in the opposite bottom lane, Xuanming, are also at their peak strength, and they don't give any chance to play with softness!

After 15 minutes of the game, RNG fell behind by 4000 economy, and the snowball tended to get bigger and bigger.

"Let's go, hurry up, brothers," Vincent came in and urged, "If you want to have dinner, you can find me!"

Several starting members waved their hands and refused.

Jack and World Girl are always welcome.

The first round of the group stage only played one game a day, and the two were destined not to be able to play, and there was no need to treat themselves badly by starving themselves. They grabbed the Mexican Taco tortillas Vincent bought and stuffed them into their mouths.

Hou Ye ate a banana to maintain his strength, looked sideways at Gu Xing, and found that his jungler was breaking dark chocolate.

"Do you want it?" Gu Xing handed over a piece of Domori, which he bought in a San Francisco supermarket.

Easyhoon hesitated a little.

Then I heard the other party add, "There are flavanols in it, which can properly speed up the blood flow in the brain and keep you focused."

Li Zhixun didn't refuse when he heard this, he filled his mouth after thanking him, and let the slightly astringent but mellow feeling spread in his mouth.

Gu Shengbin was very greedy, and ran up to ask for a piece.

It can only be said that there is a reason why he chose Tuqi for the champion skin. His eating movements are like a mouse, holding the small piece of black chocolate with both hands, and showing off in his mouth.

Seeing that his teammates were very interested, Gu Xing simply divided up all the black tricks.

Everyone packed their backpacks, filed out and took the elevator to the hotel lobby downstairs.

As a result, I happened to have a face-to-face meeting with SKT's training department.

The head coach Kkoma is in a neat suit, with a warm smile on his face, and his face is elegant and easy-going, with the maturity and stability of a middle-aged man.

Just a little short in height.

"Good evening, everyone," he greeted the members of the VG training department in English with a Korean accent, and then looked at Easyhoon, "Long time no see, Zhixun."

Li Zhixun glanced at the SKT players on the opposite side, and there were friends and partners he used to be familiar with.

He responded in a low voice, and after a brief exchange of greetings, he shrank in the corner and stopped talking.

Imp raised a smiling face and yelled at Bang in Chinese, "Bang, why don't you call me quickly?"

Goo Sung Bin is very close to him.

Compared with last year's World Championship, Pei Junzhi is much slimmer, and his face is smaller, which makes his thick eyebrows and big eyes even better.

"Lanzi?" He frowned, showing a confused expression, "Brother Shengbin, what does this mean?"

Gu Shengbin reacted quickly, "Praise you for playing well, the LPL saying is similar to our '?? (Dafa)'."

Pei Junzhi showed a suddenly realized expression.

His knowledge of Chinese is quite superficial, limited to common expressions such as hello and thank you.

Bang doesn't understand dialects like 'basket' at all.

After listening to Goo Sung Bin's explanation, he immediately pointed to Faker and Wolf who are close, imitating the pronunciation, "Basket basket!"

Yu Wenbo hid behind Gu Xing, covering his mouth for fear of laughing out loud.

He is half a head shorter than Gu Xing.

Half a head based on Jack's head.

Now Yu Wenbo's body is twitching, and the sides of his head are protruding from the back of Gu Xing's neck, and the non-stop shaking is a bit funny.

Brother Long and the others couldn't help laughing.

The chat between Gu Shengbin and Bang dilutes the awkward and strange atmosphere that was mixed with the calmness of both parties.

Blank Xiao Hei chatted with Gu Xing for a few words, the two teams said goodbye at the entrance of the hotel, and the sky was already lightly raining.

Gu Xing opened the black umbrella in his hand.

"Good guy," Yu Wenbo looked at it for a moment, then said casually, "This umbrella is really big."

Gu Xing also followed Jack's gaze and found that the black umbrella could completely cover the bodies of the two of them, "Que, I don't know where Boss Ding found it..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

I saw a bald head appearing in front of me!

In the dark sky, only street lamps are around to provide illumination, and the shiny bald head brings great visual impact!

"Wow..." Yu Wenbo's eyes straightened, and he subconsciously rubbed his thick black hair.

Gu Xing was doing the same thing.

The bald man in front is wearing a team uniform, with Forg1ven's ID printed on the back of his neck.

As expected, it was H2K's bot lane shooter Outu.

Of the players in all 16 participating teams, he is the only one with particularly thin hair.

There is still a little residue near the temples, and the scalp is directly exposed at the position of the Tianling Gai directly above.

The key point is that Forg1ven has a sharp head, like an egg with the top peeled off.

"This is really the Mediterranean," Yu Wenbo huddled under the umbrella and complained in a low voice, "Why are you bald at such a young age?"

Gu Xing answered, "I heard that Forg1ven is Greek, and his Mediterranean hairstyle is also suitable for Sister Li..."

However, he felt that it was not good to talk about others behind his back, so he didn't go any further.

Yu Wenbo suddenly muttered, "Did he work as a programmer before?"

A light flashed in Gu Xing's mind.

With the hand that was not holding the umbrella, he quickly jumped on the keyboard of the mobile phone, 【You won't be bald after learning computer, right? 】

It's morning in China on the other side of the ocean, Gu Pan quickly replied with a question mark, and then added a message, "Gu Yu, if you want to find something, you can just say it directly"

Walking into the section of the road before the municipal auditorium, the two brothers and sisters chatted in voice chat.

Since Gu Xing arrived in San Francisco, he hasn't communicated with Gu Pan very much, basically just communicating with his girlfriend once in a while.

Early this morning, when he was chatting with Shen Guanshan, he found that Gu Pan was not there. When he inquired, he found out that his sister joined many clubs, and she was not idle during the National Day holiday. Peking University was full of chaos.

Gu Xing thought it was necessary for him to give proper care and remind him of some necessary matters.

"Oh, I know, I'm almost 19, do you think I'm a child?" Gu Pan kept his mouth firmly in mind, and then chose to change the subject, "You have a game today, so you still have time to chat with me? "

"I haven't entered the venue yet, so there's nothing to do on the road anyway." Gu Xing stepped across the puddle in front of the backstage passage of the Municipal Auditorium, retracted the umbrella and at the same time gave Jack a short-legged hand, "I'll hang up after a while."

"Oh..." Gu Pan fell into silence.

It wasn't until Gu Xing thought that there was a problem with the signal that he heard the other party say dryly, "Play well today, you have already performed very well in the first two rounds of the World Championship, and you are no worse than your opponent. Don't belittle yourself."

Gu Pan knew what kind of opponent VG was going to face today.

I also know that Gu Xing's career has been going smoothly up to now, and he has not suffered any setbacks.

She was also worried that if her brother lost the game, it would affect his mentality.

Gu Xing chuckled, "Got it, do you think I'm someone with a mentality problem?"

After hanging up the voice, he shook off the water droplets on the umbrella and followed his teammates into the passage with great strides.

Before entering the team lounge where the VG team logo was hung, Gu Xing happened to meet the RNG players who stepped down.

They looked annoyed, and Uzi's brow was covered with sweat.

The grumpy Mata was still yelling something in broken Mandarin.

You can tell at a glance that they lost in front of the Tigers.

When Xiaohu saw Gu Xing, he showed a bitter smile.

"Are you okay?" Gu Xing asked with concern.

Li Yuanhao's tone was full of helplessness, "I can only say that it's okay..."

If you want to say it's particularly sad, that's not enough.

After all, all viewers feel that there is a natural moat between LPL and LCK that is difficult to smooth out.

Even Xiaohu himself didn't think that RNG could defeat ROX before the game.

He's just been beaten up all round, and now his brain is a little groggy.

"Come on," he encouraged with his keyboard and mouse in his arms, "Try to tear a piece of flesh off SKT!"

Although Xiaohu is not very optimistic about VG, he is not stingy to say a few more good words.

Gu Xing simply comforted the incense pot next to him.

He knew that the other party's EQ was low, and he might say something against the sky. Before Liu Shiyu could speak, he followed Hongmi into the lounge.

The peripherals were handed over to the on-site staff for testing, and the group put on makeup and stayed in the room honestly.

Hou Ye flipped through Redmi's notebook, not missing any opportunity to improve himself.

Gu Xing was digging through Blank's information, trying to find flaws in his style of play.

According to the information learned before the game, SKT is still playing Xiaohei today, and Bengi is in charge of guarding the drinking fountains.

He felt a little regretful in his heart.

Gu Xing has always wanted to fight Bengi.

He felt that the opponent, as the only double champion jungler in the history of League of Legends e-sports, must have something extraordinary.

But Bengi seems to really want to retire to the second line.

Even if Blank is the main culprit for SKT being chased by KT this summer, the team has no plans to resume the double-champion jungler.

Even in the training match, Gu Xing did not meet Bengi.

He seemed to disappear from the professional arena without making a sound like this.

But from a certain point of view, this is also good news for VG.

The running-in between Blank and other SKT members is obviously not as good as that of a stupid chicken, and he has no experience. It seems to be a good breakthrough!

On the TV screen in the lounge, the second big upset of this World Championship broke out.

The No. 1 seed in the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Division, Lightning Wolves, last year's top eight team, lost to the wild card ANX of the CIS!

"Hey..." Manager Lu Wenjun shook his head again and again, "What's wrong this year, the wild card has to make big news?"

The scene of EDG losing to Brazil on the first match day is still vivid.

Today, the Commonwealth of Independent States took the second victory from the five major regions!

And the whole game was ruined.

After the laning period ended, Flash Wolves were played by ANX in the transition phase!

"This line transfer is really rubbish," Jack couldn't help opening his mouth, "It's really a disgrace to the LMS division, and the operation can't even win the wild card?"

According to the general perception, compared with the wild cards, the most obvious advantage of the five major division teams is the operation level.

The teams in the small competition area didn't even understand the basic concept of operation. They often didn't get a head, but their economy was pulled away by thousands.

As a result, Lightning Wolves proved with facts that they would not operate either!

"Karsa is also outrageous," Yu Wenbo murmured, "Start sleepwalking as soon as the laning period is over, Karsa? Pizza is almost the same!"

Gu Xing interjected, "This CIS team seems to be really good. H2K almost lost to them the day before yesterday. If it wasn't for Jankos showing off his power, ANX might also win two consecutive victories now..."

Today's penultimate game, the two sides are H2K and SSG in Group C.

Jankos proves to Samsung what is the founder of Olaf's jungler, a berserker in the opponent's wild area in the early stage and doing mischief!

Head An was caught off guard by the enemy's fierce play, and the matchup was almost blown through!

Outu also suppressed the fledgling rookie Chidi in the lane.

Seeing that Samsung is going to send the LCK Division's first defeat in the S6 World Championship.

At the critical moment, the mid laner Crown stepped forward.

Crown's reputation is not obvious, but now its strength is really top-notch.

He slammed Yue Lun against each other, and Victor fired lasers in the audience with one hand!

Jankos and his teammates tried their best, but failed to recover the huge disadvantage in the middle!

Samsung fought fiercely for 40 minutes and got their first big dragon. Their chances of winning are getting better and better as the lineup gradually develops in the later stage!

Gu Xing didn't have time to look again, picked up the Ferrari red keyboard and black mouse, and got ready to go on stage.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself," Jin Wenhyuk was still reassuring and told the players, "Everyone treats this round as a training match, winning or losing is no big deal."

The staff knocked on the door to inform the contestants to come on stage.

Ding Jun gathered the crowd to form a circle.

The team members stretched out their palms one after another, and finally raised their arms in the unanimous shout of "VG must win".

A restless and loud voice echoed in the closed room.

...

"Congratulations to SSG for beating H2K and winning the key battle to get out of the group," Waowa first summed up the previous game, "Brother Crown's Victor is too proficient, he hit 44.3% of the team's damage alone, and the last wave of the team was even more so." The output of the set dropped Ryu in seconds!"

Partner Miller just finished explaining a long game, and let out a bad breath.

"The LCK is indeed strong, SSG is only their third seed, and it seems that they are very likely to win the top spot in Group C..."

He adjusted his mood and shouted loudly, "The next game can be called the highlight of the third match day!"

"The summer champion VG from our LPL division will face the two-time global finals champion SKT!"

The director gave a preview of the data before the game.

"VG has played two games so far, and the team's average death rate is only 0.5..." Wa Wa laughed out loud when she saw this, "The damage ratio of all five players is sky-high!"

Below the personal makeup photos of VG players, the lowest KDA is 12.

The highest Gu Xing battle loss ratio is as high as 28!

"In the first two rounds against European and American teams, Xiao Gu was really hard-hitting. There is no doubt that he is a world-class jungler," Miller said with emotion. "Look at the situation against Blank today. This will be his upper limit." The best stage ever!"

Although SKT's data is not bad, it seems far less explosive than VG.

Even so, no one dared to underestimate them.

The audience understood that SKT was just a hot player before, without showing any tactical reserves. They were sure of winning from the beginning, and they didn't pay attention to C9 and G2 at all!

"It's worth mentioning that today is also the first time Easyhoon has met his old team since he left SKT," Wawa said in a loud voice, "We'll see who wins!"

Thanks to Riot's schedule, today's last game is about to start, and it is already noon in the East Eighth District of China, and countless spectators flock to the live broadcast room of the LPL event.

The barrage density is exaggerated, so dense that it is impossible to see clearly!

[VG can survive 35 minutes today as a success. Is this goal reasonable? 】

[I think it's OK, I'm already mentally prepared to lose the game]

[Who are the people who are bad-mouthing LPL? 】

[VG can win the European and American competition, it must have the strength, but it is still difficult to meet SKT]

[Look at our second seed EDG, they can't even win the Brazilian wild card; RNG was beaten by ROX today, what gave you the illusion that LPL is strong? 】

The camera is aimed at the VG player seats.

Gu Xing's body led the chair to turn around, his movements calm and composed.

But with his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Hou Ye who was beside him kneading his knuckles with his hands crossed, with an unnatural expression on his face.

"Aren't you afraid?" He asked in a teasing tone, "Don't panic, Li Zhixun!"

Easyhoon looked at the neatly arranged IDs on the opposite side of the custom room, and felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.

"What's so scary?" Gu Shengbin was still arrogant, "Stay safe in the middle of this round, just wait for the nest to carry!"

Duan and Brother Long looked serious.

SKT can be called the No. 1 team in the world in terms of honor. Both of them have made their way up from the low-level leagues. They never thought that they could compete with a team of this level before.

At this moment, I am looking forward to and nervous, and my mood is extremely complicated.

Gu Xing turned his head to look at the opposite player's seat.

The stage in the municipal auditorium is not big, and his eyesight has always been good, and he can even see the profile faces of some SKT players clearly.

They seemed to be very relaxed, and coach Kkoma was talking and laughing with the players.

Gu Xing still wanted to speak again, when he heard the referee's instruction that the BP was about to start in the voice, he quickly straightened his sitting posture and prepared to face the battle.

The sonorous and powerful crisp sound resounded through the audience.

The BP panel appeared in front of all audiences!

"SKT is on the blue side in this game, they sent Rambo to the ban position first!"

When the baby saw this scene, there was regret in her words.

"Xiao Gu also said in an interview yesterday that he wanted to see Duke's Rambo level, but he didn't expect SKT to disable it himself!"

He felt that with Gu Xing's military training experience against top laner Rambo, if Duke really dared to choose him, VG might be able to find a breakthrough in the early stage.

After a little thought, Hongmi decided to block the troll.

Riot has seen VG's pioneering move with Trundle support before, and it worked out pretty well.

The designer team felt that it was unfair for trolls to go to the bottom lane to be disgusting, so they made a wave of serious weakening in version 6.17.

The cooldown of E [Pillar of Ice] has been greatly improved, and the CD will be increased by 3 seconds after the full level.

For the main E's auxiliary troll, it is undoubtedly a heavy blow.

However, Trundle, who was in the upper unit, was not affected too much, and his strength was still sufficient.

Especially Duke, he used all trolls in the first two group matches, and resolutely implemented the split push strategy.

He was almost invisible on the frontal battlefield, and everyone said that he had no wrong nickname. There must be a reason for Du Buchuan's reputation.

The four teammates created space for Duke, allowing the top laner to exert pressure on the wing all the time.

This trick has been tried and tested!

Trolls can be called the perfect executor of the current version of SKT in terms of sideline operations.

Redmi didn't want to add trouble to the team, so he simply banned it.

Kkoma tugged on his bow tie and put his palms on the player's gaming chair, "Zai Wan, I'll help you send the opposite Zyra to the ban position, so that Karma's strength will be very high. You and Junzhi partner should strive to get it." right to the line."

The only Li brother in the team, Li Zaiwan, nodded, his small eyes were almost narrowed under the accumulation of fat on his face.

But people cannot be judged by appearances. From the end of the S game last year to now, Wolf has played very steadily for a year. He is absolutely the world's number one support!

"VG chose to ban Victor, one of the most powerful mid laners in the current version... Huh?" Miller was very suspicious.

In his opinion, Master Hou's Victor proficiency is no problem.

Excluding Syndra, one of the biggest bugs, professional teams seldom grab the mid laner. VG, who is on the red side, can wait to take down Victor first-hand and second-hand!

Miller was very surprised by Hongmi's hand in hand.

Kkoma scratched the center of his eyebrows, habitually turning the signature pen in his hand.

He saw Hongmi's plan.

According to the interpretation of the game a few days ago, everyone generally believes that Leopard Girl is a well-deserved T0 hero, and Syndra follows closely, basically in the state of buying a house in Ban.

Normally, the red side should undertake the task of blocking Nidalee.

Otherwise, the blue team will definitely lock the leopard girl.

But VG has never touched Leopard Girl in the first two hands of this round!

Kkoma understands that Redmi is kicking the ball to himself.

If he releases Syndra, there is a high probability that VG will not ban Leopard Girl.

Both sides take an overly strong character, and VG can still choose an even version of the character in the second when he is on the red side.

If Kkoma bans Syndra, Redmi will block Nidalee.

It's a matter of choice.

Is it worth it to exchange Sindra and another first vote for Leopard Girl?

Kkoma looked at Xiao Hei, and asked with a pleasant face, "Shanjiu, are you confident in your leopard girl?"

When Gu Xing looked over before, he thought that SKT were all a bunch of weird people, and they would not be influenced by the outside world at all.

However, he only saw the profile faces of the wolf sticks. These two players who abide by the mass conservation bot lane combination are relatively wide, completely covering the others.

Gu Xing didn't see the formality written on Blank's face at the time.

Xiao Hei is an exception in SKT.

His mentality is really not good.

Even though he has won the MSI championship with the team, Xiao Hei is still not very confident in himself.

But Kkoma is willing to cultivate and trust him, giving him great autonomy.

Like now.

If Xiao Hei said nothing, Kkoma would ban Sindra without saying anything.

Blank thought it over and believed that he could not live up to the expectations of the head coach.

"...Yes, I, Leopard Girl, will definitely win."

Kkoma laughed and told the team to disable the ice.

Ashe can use Eagle Spirit to scout out the jungle situation, and he doesn't want to let the opponent play it.

Now that Xiao Hei got Leopard Girl, then end the battle in the wild!

"VG blocked Jess... Leopard Girl and Syndra are all released, very bold decision!"

The baby continued, "SKT locked Leopard in seconds, VG got Syndra and Jhin!"

"The strength of this pair of double Cs is still stable," Miller nodded in agreement, "SKT got Ezreal and Karma in the second and third picks, the signature combination of Wolves!"

There was confidence in Bang's eyes.

There is no doubt about his mastery of EZ, and there is even a nickname named Bang Zuriel with his ID circulating on the Internet, which shows his strength.

Hongmi squeezed the shoulder of her own jungler, "What are you going to use, Pingu?"

Gu Xing thought about the jungle heroes in several versions.

"Blind monk."

Olaf is too easy to be kited by Leopard Girl.

In contrast, Li Qing, who is extremely flexible, is a good choice to face Leopard Girl.

This is what Redmi thinks.

"You still choose Nami for the pinch, the laning pressure will be a little bit higher when you play Jinh, it's still the same as when you played C9 in the last game, and you can switch from defense to offense until Sungbin's Youmeng is done..." He roughly said After saying a few words, Duan Deliang listened to his heart before allowing the players to lock on the hero.

"SKT got the clockwork mid laner, and the top laner Duke took out Gnar, wanting to continue the single belt route!"

In fact, Gnar is not the best choice, Ike is more suitable for Duke.

But Kkoma had no choice.

If you get Ike, the team's spell damage will be too much.

He can only choose Gnar to supplement a certain physical output.

"VG got the top laner Ike and is ready to counter. The hero itself is relatively easy to play Gnar, especially in the first two versions, the cooldown of E [light jump] has been weakened, so there is no problem..."

Miller was very satisfied, "In this way, Duke's split push on the wing will be hindered a lot in the mid-term!"

Ten players from both sides exchanged heroes and officially determined the lineup.

Blue side SKT: top laner Gnar, jungler Leopard, mid laner Clockwork Demon, bottom lane EZ+Karma.

Red side VG: top laner Ike, jungler blind monk, mid laner Syndra, bottom laner Jhin + Nami.

The coaches of the two teams came to the center of the stage to shake hands, ready to enter Summoner's Canyon!

Today is a special day, so I will spend less time with my partner...

Tomorrow will continue to step up efforts to update.

G2's mid-field strength is really high, and little Lu Bu looks a bit outrageous.
