April 1.

April Fool's Day.

In the small boss's barbecue restaurant, TFO's group of six people and a dark night were in full swing to eat together.

The dark night doesn't look happy.

He felt that the little wolf had changed.

Today, the little wolf called him excitedly and told him that he wanted to invite him to the most expensive western restaurant.

Considering that the little wolf is so simple, and at the same time he is also thinking about the situation of eating alone, Dark Night did not inform any teammates today, and took a taxi to the TFO base with great expectations.

As soon as they met, Dark Night patted the little wolf on the shoulder: "Dude is interesting enough, right?" In order to save your wallet, here comes me one. ”

And then...... The dark night watched the little wolf stunned, and then opened its arms to him.

"Chromatography ruai hiss! Today is April Fool's Day, I'm fooling you, let's go have a barbecue! ”

Night's smile stiffened.

If it weren't for the fact that this barbecue restaurant was quite famous in Shencheng, it wouldn't have come at all in the dark night.

"You guys are very comfortable in grouping, do you feel that there is no problem with trying to reach the finals?"

After three drinks and five flavors, Li Wei said while picking his teeth.

Miracle Red made the playoffs.

DGL's final game loss to VC gave VC their second win of the spring season.

It sounds magical, but it's true.

So DGL is out.

The top eight places in the regular season of the spring season are Kingdom, Phoenix Wing, Explosive Bear, TE, TFO, Little Dragons, Miracle Red, and JD.com.

According to the rules of the playoffs, the first, fourth, fifth, and eighth places are divided into groups.

Second, third, sixth, and seventh places are placed in separate groups.

BO5, a single-elimination system, if you lose in the first and second rounds, you will be gone, and if you lose in the third round, you will have a chance to hit the third place.

It's about the points that can be decided this season whether or not to enter the Worlds, so even if it's the third place, all teams will do their best.

The knockout format is brutal.

Although TFO successfully made a successful effort in the last round, the situation of losing all in the second round dragged them too back, resulting in TFO falling behind the TE team by 1 point in the small game, ranking fifth in the regular season.

At the same time, they were also placed in the first group.

The fifth position is actually quite embarrassing, and it is no different from the eighth.

Because in the first round of the playoffs, TFO will face JD.com, which is in eighth place.

That ranking has kept them in the playoffs not missing even one game.

The only chance to win the title is a string of fours.

After they beat JD.com, they also have to face the TE team in the first game of the final round of the group stage.

Only after defeating the Kingdom King will you have the opportunity to play against another group of winning teams to compete for the final championship.

But how hard is it to defeat the Kingdom King?

Dark Night hiccuped: "It's okay, the Little Dragons, as the dark horse of this season's new army, are not so easy to deal with." ”

"You have to rely on experience to beat them, and it is definitely not possible to be reckless, I think you should learn from Lao Li, and the mentality of the newcomers will be destroyed in the first game, and the rest of the game will be solved if you collapse the mentality."

The pot boy is kind and seductive.

At the end of the meal, everyone ate quite harmoniously.

The two teams didn't set their goals too high first.

First of all, it is necessary to win the first round and enter the semi-finals.

The semi-finals of the Spring Championship are more than just competing for the title.

The qualification for the continental competition in July is based on the top four teams of the spring competition in each region.

It's also a world tournament anyway, and if TFO doesn't want to fight for it, it's fake.

After returning to the base, the TFO team took a short rest for a day, and the next day they entered the intensive training again.

On the night of April 2, the TFO people took the bullet train to Hangzhou.

The first round of the playoffs will be held at DGL's home stadium, Hangcheng.

It is said that there is heaven and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou, but after the TFO people arrived in Hangzhou, they didn't have much time to go sightseeing, and tomorrow, April 3, was their game day.

Won the promotion.

If you lose......

Let's jump to the West Lake, and don't go back.

Everyone temporarily found an Internet café and trained in a well-sealed box.

The glass outside the box is full of people, and with the popularity of TFO, the traffic that can be driven by a sudden arrival at an Internet café is quite terrifying.

Originally, this Internet café was still relatively remote, but it was instantly full due to the arrival of TFO.

The boss is a fat man, very good at getting things done, not only to the TFO box where the network is connected, but also to waive the TFO training should be paid for the Internet, even drinks and water are provided for free.

Privately, the boss is also in the same city as the arrival of the major team members.

Mutual benefit and reciprocity are a normal thing.

As for the riots outside, the TFO people have no idea.

Anyway, the box is well insulated, and they are completely able to keep their ears open to the outside of the window and only slaughter canyon pigs.

"Tomorrow to play JD.com, JD.com's team is actually very strong in terms of comprehensive strength, and they have relatively strong individual abilities in the upper, middle and lower lines, but their problem is also obvious, that is, the shortcomings of the jungler."

Liu Mei had a small meeting with the players after the training that night.

He looked around and said slowly: "BO3 is different from BO5, in the BO5 game, we have to do more and the tactics we can come up with are more comprehensive. ”

"There is a set of tactics to deal with JD.com's style that is very adaptable, and we have used this set of tactics before."

Liu Mei's eyes finally fell on Zhang Zijie.

"Zijie, you've been playing training matches and playing JD.com during this time, and you're going to start."

Zhang Zijie was stunned.

He looked a little nervous and looked dazed.

At this time, Zhang Zijie is completely different from when he first entered the club.

He has just entered the club, he is young, arrogant, and unstoppable.

All the proud gestures that can appear in young people are vividly presented in him.

But after a round of consecutive defeats and Li Wei's "brainwashing" of young people, Zhang Zijie realized that he was still far from the real veteran professional players.

He didn't even think about getting another chance to play in a short period of time, during this time he trained desperately, trying to improve himself, and the purpose was just to improve himself.

He sees the team's good form.

Zhang Zijie sometimes even worries.

Worried that he would not be able to keep up with the strength of the team and not be able to catch up with Levi, he was abandoned by the team.

But he never expected that in the first game of the playoffs, in such a crucial game, Liu Mei ...... Actually let him go on.

Subconsciously, Zhang Zijie looked at Li Wei.

Levi looked at him with a smile on his face, and at the same time reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Sao Nian, the opportunity has come, let's go on and catch them off guard." ”

"I ......"

Zhang Zijie opened his mouth, his face was red after being speechless for a long time, he just clenched his fists and nodded heavily.

Liu Mei was very satisfied with this, and then continued: "Our tactical thinking is very simple, I have improved the tactics of Coach Kim Minjun to a certain extent before, play JD.com, let's fight the jungle core, beat their jungler, and we won." ”

"No problem, I just like Kerry."

The pot boy smiled: "I've learned something sassy recently, take it out tomorrow and let them taste it, okay?" ”

Levi glanced at the object.

Recently, the pot boy has played a lot of jungle AP dragon girls and death songs.

For some reason, thinking of the dragon girl in the pot, Li Wei suddenly thought of Qiu Kan.

The dragon lady of that thing...... has a unique understanding, and from the understanding of this hero alone, Levi feels that the pot boy is a lot worse.

Thinking of this, Levi inexplicably had a very strange feeling.

The pot boy is also the second best jungler in his career among the active players.

But he actually wanted the pot boy to learn from Qiu Kan's unreliable experience for the first time.

Li Wei didn't know where his illusion came from, recalling that when he played with Qiu Kan, Li Wei always felt that when Qiu Kan became serious, some of the vision layout was very similar to that of professional players, and some of the habits of passers-by were completely untouched.

Whether it is a professional player or a passerby, it is actually easy to tell through some special small details.

But Qiu Kan made Li Wei a little incomprehensible.

Some time ago, when Li Wei was bored, he also went to check Qiu Kan's information.

However, there is no such person in the professional circle......

Shaking his head, Levi no longer dwelled on the matter.

What he thinks now is that when the club waits to announce the starting line-up for tomorrow, it should be ...... on the Internet Can you fry?

And that's exactly what happened.

When TFO announced that he would play JD.com tomorrow and Li Wei would sit on the bench, the comments on the major post bar forums and Weibo all exploded.

"Is this the management of the TFO team? It's funny enough. ”

"Inflated after a streak? I wonder what my commander didn't offend you, right? In such a crucial game as the playoffs, you brought the bench account up again? Forgot that this thing knelt five times in a row? ”

"I'm really convinced, this team is not moving, and I don't consider the mood of the fans at all, hehe."

"Jingdong said, you look down on me, right? There is a price to pay for looking down on me. ”

"Actually, I can understand why the TFO team did this, it should be that the commander feels that he can't hit the toothbrush, so he chooses this way of evasion, let the newcomer go up to the top tank, the captain is disgusting!"

"Trash TFO, playoff round 1!"

Trolls seize the opportunity to bring rhythm to death.

Levi beckoned Zhang Zijie over and asked him to take a look at the comments.

"What does it feel?"

Levi asked with a smile.

Zhang Zijie actually vaguely knew in his heart that when the starting list was announced, there must have been a lot of abuse on the Internet.

But I didn't expect it to be so many.

Heart...... It's still a little unpleasant.

His mentality is good.

I was sprayed up when I lost five in a row before, but now I have adjusted and my heart is much stronger.

But I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when I saw those foul words.

"It's uncomfortable, it's uncomfortable."

Levi smiled and pouted to Wu Haonu, who was sitting on the other side of the training: "See, he is not a few years older than you, but the troll pressure he bears is the sum of all the people in our team and multiplied by several times." ”

"I don't want you to look at this for your mentality, but I believe that young people have blood in their hearts, and different ideas will determine different mentalities."

"If you think they're right and cause your mentality to explode, then what I said to you before doesn't exist."

"But from another angle, if you think they are farting, then in tomorrow's game, hit them in the face with practical actions and swell their faces!"

"Trust me, you're going to love it."

Standing in the back, Liu Mei, who heard all the conversations between the two, opened her mouth and wanted to stop.

After all, he suppressed the words that came to his lips.

Other teams confiscate their phones during the game so that players don't see comments that affect their mentality.

But Levi's pre-match reassuring method ...... It's a novelty.
