In the first half of S5, Lee Jung-woo once led a team that was promoted from the secondary league in the Korean division to the top league of the LCK.

At that time, the team had just been formed, and it was composed of some passers-by with high levels of hanbok, and no one had professional experience, and it was like a plate of scattered sand.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is an "Internet café team".

After entering the LCK, due to some problems within the team, Lee Jung-woo stepped down as coach himself and chose to quit.

After that, the team's performance plummeted, and they soon fell to the next level, and soon announced their disbandment.

After a period of time, Li Zhengyu did not engage in coaching work anymore.

Until recently, he contacted their club through a friend of Liu Zijian and offered to join the SSR team's coaching team.

"I've watched all the footage of your team's previous games." Li Zhengyu said as he spoke, and suddenly came to his senses, and the excitement on his face could not be hidden, "Up, middle, field, and bottom road, every position, every team member is very distinctive, and has great potential!" ”

"Although I haven't been in coaching for more than a year, I've actually been following the professional games in each major region, keeping track of the changes and changes in each version of the game, and doing a lot of research privately."

Li Zhengyu paused and said, "What I like the most is to think about developing a variety of lineups, including some novel plays...... LOL is a game that is interesting to develop a variety of tactics and gameplay, and the monotonous and unchanging routine is too boring. ”

In fact, Li Zhengyu has been paying attention to Lin Han since last summer.

Each member of the team has distinctive characteristics and has great room for development.

Unlike other teams, SSR has come up with a lot of new things in the professional game, which often makes people shine.

And these coincide with his thoughts.

"So, I'd like to be able to join your coaching team."

Li Zhengyu smiled and said, "In the later games, I can help your team." ”

Lin Han took a sip of coffee and asked again, "Mr. Li Zhengyu, then why didn't you think about returning to the LCK region to coach?" ”

With his ability, there should be quite a few teams that want to poach him.

Li Zhengyu nodded: "Actually, many LCK teams contacted me later, but I refused...... One is that I want to take a break for a while, and second, to be honest, I don't really like the way the LCK team plays right now. ”

After a pause, he said: "I have watched the leagues of each major region, and I can only say that the games in the LCK region are ...... It's very boring to watch, and often some games, even within more than 20 minutes, will not break out, drag it to the back, and play a wave of team games to end...... And the playing style and routines are too simple. ”

Lin Han bowed slightly, expressing his understanding.

As Lee Jung-woo said, this is the case for many games in the LCK league now.

Both sides are trying to fight and operate, and they are trying to avoid fighting, even if they fight, it is until the point, and it is the norm for more than ten or twenty minutes without a head.

After watching it for a long time, it is indeed easy to get aesthetically fatigued, and there is no ornamentality.

In contrast, the team on the LPL side fights more, likes to collide, and is more passionate.

"Also, I've seen a lot of matches between the NA and EU divisions."

Li Zhengyu said: "In their competition area, the routines are the most developed, and there are some wonderful combinations, which can always play some unexpected effects...... I have also studied a lot of this, and some of them I think are very reasonable and have reference value......"

In the course of the chat, Li Zhengyu expressed a lot of his own game opinions and opinions, and when it comes to these, he always seems to be very energetic.

After listening to it, Lin Han could also see that he did have a considerable passion for the game League of Legends and professional games.

The three of them chatted all afternoon.

After Li Zhengyu left first, Liu Zijian and Lin Han were still sitting in the café.

"What do you think...... What do you think? Liu Zijian asked Lin Han, "Can you see how capable he is?" ”

Lin Han thought for a moment and said, "From his words, I can hear that he is indeed very interested in games and games...... But the specific ability, this is hard to say, after all, I don't know much about him. ”

"Hmmm......"

Liu Zijian asked again: "Then what do you think, do you want him to try?" ”

He is now desperate for a better result in the team and having a good coach is a must.

Liu Zijian has participated in many pre-game discussions, and he knows very well how much Lin Han has contributed to the BP analysis work in their team.

Many times before the start of the game, it was Lin Han who made tactical arrangements.

On the one hand, he is indeed good at these jobs, which is suitable, but at the same time, if you rely on him all, the burden is too heavy.

Even if the coaching team was expanded later, it still relied on Lin Han to make arrangements most of the time.

Therefore, it would be great to have a great coach who can help Lin Han reduce his burden and allow him to focus better on the game.

"Brother Liu, you are the boss, you decide." Lin Han smiled, "It's up to you." ”

"Hmm...... Then let him try it first. ”

Liu Zijian groaned slightly, and said: "He talked to me before, and there are not too many requirements in terms of salary, just keep it the same as other coaches...... Talking to him, I feel that he is not bad, and he really wants to join our club to work. ”

"Hmm." Lin Han nodded, "And listening to him speak Chinese well, there shouldn't be any communication problems." ”

"That's good."

......

The next day, Lee Jung-woo came to the base of the SSR club, visited it, got to know all the players of the SSR, and officially signed the contract.

One more person was added to the team's coaching team, expanding to a team of five.

In their base, there is a special studio for coaches, which is equipped with a computer for each coach, and they work in the studio every week.

However, this coach Li Zhengyu doesn't seem to like to stay in the coaching studio, but often hangs around Lin Han's training room, standing behind the players and watching them play in ranking.

After a few days of talking, Lin Han found that Li Zhengyu did have some unique understanding of the game, and was very keen to discuss and exchange some game things with the players.

......

MSI is also underway, and the group stage has been completed.

In the next three days of the game, as Lin Han said in the commentary seat, WE won the rest of the game, and finally ranked second with a 7-3 record and entered the knockout round of MSi......
