The city of Shanghai is known as the hub of esports, but it's not for nothing. The esports atmosphere here is the strongest in the country, with some of the biggest tournaments including the LPL being held here, and of course, the National Championship is no exception.

As the tournament approaches, teams from all over the country are gathering in Shanghai, with Internet café leagues, college leagues, and some cups held by merchants, where all the teams that have won the quota will stage the ultimate showdown and fight for the promotion of the two LPLs every year.

Compared to other teams, RS is lucky, because the Pepsi Cup was held late and the waiting time was not long, and many teams really waited for this day to leak their words. Don't say that there is enough preparation time, it is not a good thing that it takes too long, it is really looking through the autumn water.

For example, in today's qualifying draw, many people were so excited that their hands trembled, and they couldn't hold a single number ball steadily, so that the sound of clanging was heard everywhere on the stage, and the ball fell to the ground.

RS is the champion of the Pepsi Cup to participate in the national championship, so they directly qualify for the group stage, and they do not have their share in the qualifying round. However, today's opening ceremony was still present, and I was familiar with my face and had a good time.

The opening ceremony was held in the designated competition venue of the National Championship, Shanghai Fengyun E-sports Stadium, the venue is still very gorgeous, the place is big enough, it is said that some star concerts are often held here, quite professional.

At this time, the arena seemed relatively empty, and even if all the participating teams gathered together, they would not be able to fill this area, but they would only sit densely in the middle.

Sun Hao and the others sat in the middle and back positions, watching the representatives of the teams go up to draw lots, and then walk off the stage with sadness or joy, feeling very bored, it is better to go back to sleep.

"When will it end?" Zhao Yu yawned and said lazily.

Sun Hao glanced at the time on his mobile phone and said, "Wait, at least you have to ink until the afternoon, and then there will be a leader to speak." ”

"I hate what leaders are speaking and holding meetings, and I don't know what I'm talking about, it's useless, and it has to take up a lot of time, it's a waste of life." Zhao Yu rolled his eyes.

"Hehe, it looks formal, to put it bluntly, it's an image project, and an opening ceremony can't be said without this kind of link."

Sun Hao doesn't care about these, whether it is useful or not, it is indispensable.

Zhao Yu stretched his waist, looked at the team representatives who came and went on the stage, and said curiously: "Have you held so many leagues this year, there are quite a lot of teams, but you can be pulled down by others in the game to play the qualifying tournament, presumably the strength is limited, and playing the national championship is just a number, and it is useless." ”

There are indeed a lot of teams in the draw, and these are all teams that can get tickets in various leagues or cups, and Zhao Yu is not wrong to say this. It's just that it can't be generalized, such as professional events such as the Onda League, there are no weak teams in it, although there are more places than other amateur leagues, but the teams that play the qualifying rounds may not have the opportunity to impact the LPL.

Sure enough, there was a team behind Zhao Yu who was not happy, they had gone up to draw lots before, and it was a team that was going to participate in the qualifying round.

At this time, a flat-headed young man with glasses frowned, stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Yu's shoulder in front of him, and said, "Which league team are you in?" ”

"Pepsi, what's wrong?" Zhao Yu turned his head, glanced at the young man, and said.

"Pepsi?" The young man smiled with disdain on his face and said, "This kind of cup competition that I have never heard of actually has a place for the championship competition?" Well, even if you have, you can still skip the qualifiers, you guys are really shit luck, you can only say that you are stained with the light of PepsiCo. ”

"How do you speak?"

Zhao Yu was angry, what kind of attitude does this guy have, even if the Pepsi Cup can't be put on the table, but it can't be said to be so unbearable, is it easy for them to get this championship, the opponent in the final is still open, if you change the team, you are afraid that you will be abused and cry.

The glasses youth sneered and said: "Am I wrong, the cup and the league are incomparable, the quality of the teams is very different, if you have watched this year's SP Amateur League, you will understand that several old professional teams have participated, and the competition is as fierce as the LPL, can it be compared with the Pepsi Cup?" ”

"Can it be compared to the LPL? It's big enough. Zhao Yu snorted coldly.

The young man with glasses didn't care, and continued triumphantly: "You are just a group of frogs at the bottom of the well, thinking that you are very good when you play well in a small cup competition, but in fact you are far behind." And our Dream Flow team is different, even if you participate in the qualifying round, you must be crushed all the way, if you meet someone like you in the group stage, you can be so crushed that you can't hold your head up, and you can't accept it. ”

The more this guy talks, the more energetic he becomes, it's not too much to get a perfect score.

The RS players were speechless, and they were crushing all the way, as if they were real. Even Sun Hao couldn't listen to it anymore, turned his head and said: "If you don't pretend to be forced to die, what is Mengniu Yili, according to what you say, you must have a share of this year's LPL promotion quota?" ”

"It's a dream, a dream, a stream, not Mengniu!" The young man with glasses glared at Sun Hao. "It's terrible to be uneducated."

"Dreaming of flowing water, you are also promising, what about culture?" Sun Hao sneered.

"You ......"

The young man with glasses was furious, the name of their team was taken from the memory of dreams, how could it be so filthy in this guy's mouth? This is an insult to them.

"What's the name of your team?"

"RS, how's it going, isn't it?" Sun Hao smiled proudly.

The young man with glasses is very puzzled, just two English abbreviations, what's so awesome? It's hard to see what it means. But since it's just an abbreviation, there's no way to dwell on it, so the young man didn't say anything, just continued the topic just now: "It's hard to say whether we can advance this year, but there is no problem at all in reaching the knockout round, and I'm afraid you won't even be able to pass the group stage." ”

Sun Hao didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, this person didn't know if there was something wrong with his head, just because they were a cup champion and felt that they didn't have the strength? What kind of truth is this, it is too arbitrary.

Besides, is the quality of the SP Amateur League really that high? Sun Hao felt that it was not necessarily, in fact, he also paid a little attention to this event, there were indeed several teams composed of professional players, but they were all old guys, like Zhao Yu, the degradation was already very serious, and the competition was just for entertainment, and he didn't care about winning or losing.

With such a quality, it is also worthy of being comparable to LPL, and it is really thick-skinned. But it doesn't matter, when you really get to the field, you still see the real chapter under your hands, and there is a use for playing tricks.

The next process is as Sun Hao expected, it is indeed the leader's speech, some "successful people" who don't know what title they take turns to make the same speech, Sun Hao and others simply fell asleep with their eyes closed, and the hypnotic effect of this kind of speech is leveraged.

The other teams were different, and they all listened very attentively. For them, they finally waited for the start of the national championship, and they were excited in their hearts, not to mention that someone spoke, even if the stage was cold, I am afraid they would watch it with relish.

It's hard to wait until the end of this link, and then there is an unprecedented round of entertainment competition, maybe these leaders also think that this opening ceremony is not interesting, so they want to use it to liven up the atmosphere.

It's kind of self-aware.

I saw some dancers wearing various hero costumes on the stage to have a hot dance, and then a beautiful host appeared on the stage to explain the rules of the game. And it wasn't until this time that Sun Hao and the others raised their spirits, because the host was actually Tang Meng.

"I'll go, she's really mixed up now, and she's both narrator and host." Wang Yuan's eyes widened, if anyone can marry this beauty, he won't have to worry about it for the rest of his life, just be a little white face at home.

Tang Mengke is a myth in the e-sports circle, not to mention raising a little white face with the money he earns, even if he raises a group.

Sun Hao thought it was very interesting, of course, it was not Tang Meng, but the rules of this game. It turns out that the so-called entertainment competition is not formal, but is divided into different events, such as lane mending, wild area hide and seek, six gods costume operation show, and even canyon running.

After playing lol for so many years, Sun Hao has never heard of this kind of gameplay. It's nothing to make up for the knife, it's a basic skill, not for the purpose of killing, it's just a knife show.

And hide and seek in the wild area is fun, with the river as the center, one escapes, one chases, and no eyes are allowed, as long as you can hit the other party within the specified time, you will win, it is completely a lol version of the police to catch thieves, and the show is IQ. There is also a six-god costume operation show, when both sides have the ability to kill in seconds, the comparison is the grasp of skill timing and hand speed, which is completely the stage for show operation.

The most interesting thing is the canyon race, several rounds of fixed hero selection, some can freely cross the wall, some can cross the wall with the help of wild monsters, and there are those who can't cross the wall, how to find the shortest route of travel, this is a test of the familiarity of the map.

Hearing the rules of the game, even Sun Hao had a feeling of eagerness to try, but he didn't expect this opening ceremony to be quite interesting.

Entries will be selected at random on the spot, and the winners will receive gifts. In fact, it doesn't matter what the gift is, everyone is probably taking this opportunity to start their team's fame and boost morale, which will also be good for the next tournament.

"I don't know if we have a share of our team." Sun Hao is looking forward to it, luck is really uncertain.

"If you draw us, Ah Hao, you can go up, take the first place, and let some guys who look down on people see what strength is." Zhao Yu said, and deliberately turned his head to look at the glasses brother behind him.
