Chapter II: Agreements
Due to the distance between the training bases of the two teams in North America, it was already a little late when the members of the three teams reunited in the evening, but fortunately, Lan Yu and Yuan Xiaoye had been accompanying Chen Chuxiao to go shopping, although no special people were arranged to guide the way, and several people did not dare to be too far away from the hotel, but the talent of women still made Chen Chuxiao sweep a lot of things.
Before I came, I also specially exchanged US dollars, and I saw a Chinese restaurant on the way and went in with great interest to try it, and the result was completely incomparable with domestic restaurants, but there were many Americans who dined and ate with relish.
This is also the first time for several people to go abroad, and they want to buy everything back to their friends and relatives at home, and then they only choose some very representative things to bring back.
The evening party was not only from the three teams, but also from the official designers of Riot, it stands to reason that the WT team is not yet a strong team in the world, but after all, it also has a good result of the second place in the Spring League of the China Region, and some details can be discussed to allow Riot to understand the current masters' views on the balance of the game.
Yuan Xiaoye and Chen Chuxiao naturally chatted from their familiar positions, including Yuan Xiaoye's incomprehension of Riot's insistence on weakening the strong jungler heroes in the early stage through three consecutive versions of changes, and it seems that Riot now thinks that only a game is considered a good game if it is played in the late stage or even in the late stage.
Lan Yu also expressed some opinions on the changes from various angles, fortunately, he has been discussing with Hai and them by email, and some of the more professional and unpopular terms are also open to the mouth, mainly putting forward some of his own opinions on the changes of assassin mages.
Lan Yu and Yuan Xiaoye's views are a little different, Yuan Xiaoye is a jungler position, and he hopes that if he can successfully bring the rhythm in the early stage, he can let the team win, but the current level compensation mechanism and the significant weakening of the blind monk spider Evelyn make it difficult for the game to directly crush the opponent in the early stage; Lan Yu believes that such changes in Riot will implicitly improve the ability of professional players, and now it is not only necessary to play a wave in the early stage, but also to be ready at all times to compare the position and execution of the six gods in the late stage, which has increased the difficulty of this game to a certain extent, and also explored the potential of professional players.
Hai and Dyrus also agree with Lan Yu's statement, but they are also complaining that Riot is like patching, where there is a problem, a hero who is strong because of the version is quickly cut into a dog because of the version, such as the Enchantress, such as the former mid-route tyrant Kyaukyue and the wine barrel, have all completely faded out of sight.
After what was the most delicious meal, everyone had no impression, from the very beginning of the discussion into a thorough discussion, the two designers also knew everything, shared some of their own design heroes and original intentions, and then discussed which heroes need to be changed, in which direction to change.
In fact, before the start of the new season every year, professional players from all countries in the world will be invited to participate in the preview of the new season changes, that is, the link to find bugs and give opinions, Lan Yu What they are doing now is to advance this matter a little earlier, this discussion is very helpful for the WT team, because you can intuitively understand the true meaning of this change from the mouth of the designer, so as to strengthen the understanding of this hero.
The meal lasted until late at night, and everyone even drank a lot of beer, but Lan Yu and Yuan Xiaoye really couldn't get used to drinking the American beer, and there was a strange taste, on the other hand, those American friends drank it with relish.
For Chen Chuxiao, the other members of the two teams also expressed their amazement, and the auxiliary lemon country of the C9 team was even a little shy to praise Chen Chuxiao for being more beautiful than all those who claimed to be beautiful anchors combined, plus some more interesting jokes made Chen Chuxiao giggle non-stop, which also triggered Lan Yu's endless jealousy.
Fortunately, it is also up to the point, no excessive jokes, female players, especially female professional players, are still too few, everyone is looking for a chance to chat with her, and everyone is happy at this dinner, the two designers also took this opportunity to get the insights of the top players in China and the United States on the balance of the game, and several teams finally met offline, and since then it can be regarded as a breakthrough in the relationship between training partners and officially become friends.
Back at the hotel, Wang Zhiguo also has news, and the negotiation and cooperation with North America are very good, and the person in charge of the League of Legends operating company in the mainland is also coming this time, because the official ticket sales channel is still in the game, H City is just a very important distributor, and as much as possible to get more votes for the audience in H City.
The specific pricing will still be in a few days, so the WT team has time to play two training matches in North America and C9 and the TSM team, because they did not bring their own accustomed peripherals, plus the personnel are not neat, each other is a complete five players, the TSM team and the C9 team each sent two people to fight against the opponent, and the game was also very happy, because there was no purpose, a total of four games were also 2-2 draws, and everyone also gained a lot.
The trip to North America lasted about five days, and they gave each other some small gifts, after which the basic official work was completed, and several members of the WT team had to follow back to China, and they were a little reluctant to part.
"The group stage is in our H city, come over early when the time comes, take you around, there are a lot of delicacies, much better than you have here." Lan Yu smiled and sent out an invitation.
"The food we have here is also delicious." Dyrus said seriously, "But I've been to China, and it's really good. ”
Riot company is also all the way to send everyone to the airport, each other for this cooperation has great confidence, believe that as long as the online ticket advance channel opens, the influx of players and tourists from all over the world will be sold out, for this reason the temporary decision of H City to expand the upper limit of capacity again, but also represents the Hengyu Real Estate Group far away in H City for the renovation of the sports center will be further expanded.
The other members of the two teams still did not come to see off the plane, but entrusted their respective representatives to send their blessings, Lan Yu looked at Dyrus and said seriously: "I hope you can improve again in the summer competition, and then challenge the supremacy of C9." ”
Dyrus nodded with a smile, Hai over there immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, and Lan Yu said with a smile: "It's good that you try not to be caught up by them, we will also work hard, I hope that when you go to China, our team will also be one of the participating teams." ”
The trip to North America ended successfully, Lan Yu and they also returned to H City, and after coming back, they first brought a small gift to Mu Huanhuafei who stayed behind, and then chatted about what they had seen in North America, but unfortunately the time was relatively tight, and many of the attractions that Chen Chuxiao wanted to see were not completed, and they also said that if the WT team could enter the quarterfinals of the World Finals, the game would return to Los Angeles, and then they would arrange for the WT team to go around various attractions in Los Angeles.
The e-sports stadium in H City has expanded again, but it has basically reached the limit, and if a new venue is opened, it will seriously affect the feeling of the live experience.
After coming back, the WT team still did not train, but rested for about half a month, during this time Mu Huan and Wang Yan had already begun to do recovery training, and neither of them suffered any major damage to their arms, so it did not affect their hand speed at all, but Mu Huan was still wearing a plaster cast on his feet, so he couldn't sit there for too long, and he was not willing to be lonely He ordered a set of luxury computer mounts online, the kind that can lie on the bed and play games with his legs hanging.
Wang Yan began to train with Chen Chuxiao in a double row, although the two of them have not played together recently, but they have not been separated in the previous two years, and they found the feeling the moment they entered the game, Wang Yan urgently needed to find the rhythm, so she and Chen Chuxiao chose Hanbok training, the rhythm here is slightly faster, which is more suitable for Wang Yan to get back the feeling.
Mu Huan is only a single row, and he is a little tired after playing seven or eight games a day, his personal skills and awareness are excellent, and he has a particularly deep understanding of Lan Yu's tactical intentions, so Lan Yu is not worried that Mu Huan will not be able to keep up with the rhythm of the team after he comes back, and the training of the fifth row is still temporarily put on hold, waiting for Mu Huan's body to recover a little more before training.
A month passed quickly, Mu Huan's body recovered well, the plaster has been removed, but he still needs someone to help him or crutches when walking, and the sentence of 100 days of injured muscles and bones still makes sense, in order not to leave any root cause, Mu Huan is also actively doing rehabilitation training, the medical environment in H City is also good, and there are many professional hospitals in this area, Mu Huan has the club's car to pick up and drop off the hospital every day, plus he is looking forward to the summer league, so the mood is also exceptionally good.
There are two new teams in the summer league, namely the WE youth team, that is, WE61A and YG team, these two teams are the second team of WE and IG teams, just like the current TBK team, and it is a bit regrettable that the TN team that competed with WT and TBK teams for a place in the professional league, that is, their old friend Pang Xiao's team won the third place in the LSPL minor league and failed to join the professional league, and it is said that their team is likely to be disbanded.
Lan Yu called Pang Xiao to ask, and he has been smiling bitterly over there, but compared with the WT team and the original TBK team, Pang Xiao actually doesn't yearn for the professional league, it's good to win, and it won't be too sad to lose, so when it comes to the most upright, Pang Xiao, who is optimistic by nature, comforts Lan Yu not to be sad for them, as for whether to continue to fight, I don't know whether to continue to fight, after all, the LGD team and the TBK team will join the competition in the next league, and the TBK team has been in the professional league for a while. Especially after joining the WT club, the strength is already very good, and it is likely that the TN team will still not have a chance next year.
The two of them talked a lot, talking about their respective journeys after separation, talking about their understanding of the mid-laner heroes, talking about the hope of the future, and hanging up the phone after the most Lan Yu also sighed deeply, there are many people who want to take this road, sometimes talent and hard work are important, but opportunities are equally important.
The summer league is about to start, this time the WE team and the IG team have their own second team in the league, the WE team has won the China qualifiers, their goal is to get higher honors and bonuses, and the IG team and the EDG team, the OMG team and even the royal team will go all out to hit the last two China qualifiers, so the summer league will be extremely hot.
The list of matches in the schedule has also come out, the opening match is the first team WE team in the spring game against their own second team, which is considered a brotherly battle, and the WT team is going to play against the YG team, when this list of matches came out, the WT team was a little emotional, thinking that when they entered the professional game, they were also "educated" by the big brother, and now in a blink of an eye, they are going to become the big brother who educates the younger generations.
For the summer league, the WT team actually looks very lightly, because the China qualifiers have ended, but they attach great importance to it, because the strong teams will definitely burst out with a more persistent desire to win than the spring game, which is the best training opportunity for the WT team before the World Finals.
Go all out, this is the only requirement that Chen Chuxiao made to all the players as the captain of the WT team.
