The day after the quarterfinals officially ended, all eight teams gathered again at the airport.

Only this time, there are four teams going home to end their journey to the Worlds.

The joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same.

The atmosphere of EDG and RNG is relatively dull, and there is unwillingness on the face, but there is only unwillingness.

Skills are not as good as others, and if you lose, you lose.

Li Hansheng deliberately glanced at the factory director, he was in a state very much like the kind of old man, who liked to sit in one place motionless, staring blankly ahead, and didn't know what he was thinking.

This World Championship was not an ordinary blow to him.

Especially in the quarterfinals, facing the young Peanut, it was almost humiliating.

Until Li Hansheng walked to his side, the factory director did not react.

"Factory director?"

Hearing this, the factory director glanced up at him, then looked ahead, and muttered, "It's good to be young, I seem to be really old." ”

He was born in 93 and is just 23 years old this year.

For esports players, this age is at the tail end of its peak.

"Is it old? It's not like that, the jungler position doesn't need such a high level of operational ability. Li Hansheng comforted.

He could see that the factory director had actually fallen into deep self-doubt because of the fiasco.

"Besides, can you really put it down? There are some things that are not so easy to let go. ”

The director was silent again.

It wasn't until he was about to board the plane that he got up and patted Li Hansheng on the shoulder, "Come on, cross the Tiger team, for you the championship is within reach, but definitely don't underestimate the Tiger team, they are really strong!" Very strong! Very strong! Although I am very unwilling, I can only hope that you will help me get revenge. ”

"Don't worry, the factory director, I promise to help you educate the little peanuts obediently!" Li Hansheng responded with a smile.

"Don't be hippie and smiley, take it seriously, take it seriously, your luck is very good, you can get to this point in the first year, but you can't be proud, otherwise it will become a regret in your life, there is no if in life, and you can't do it again, if you don't want to leave regrets, seize this opportunity! Think of it as the only chance in this life. ”

After speaking, the factory director dragged his suitcase and left with his teammates.

Li Hansheng and others took another flight to New York, on the east coast of America.

Originally, the sixteen teams were lively, but half a month has passed, and now only the last four teams are left for the final battle.

"Training matches are not easy to organize." The white crescent moon was very distressed.

There are too few teams like this, Roxtiger, as the opponent of the top semi-finals, naturally it is impossible to have a training match with them at such a time, isn't that revealing his tactical intentions in advance?

skt？？

In the quarterfinals, SKT refused to play training matches with the top, and people just regarded you as the biggest competitor on the road to winning the championship, what can you do?

Then only H2K, which is a little less powerful, is left, but fortunately, H2K is a team driven around Jankos in the jungle, and Jankos's super jungle offensive suppression can give Condi a certain degree of exercise.

"Brother Sheng is fine." Li Hansheng smiled and comforted, "At least H2K has a better relationship with us, and will agree to our training matches, Roxtiger and SKT, do you think these two teams will play training matches with each other?" ”

"How do you know H2K isn't going to play a training match against Rox?" The white crescent moon asked rhetorically.

It's unlikely that SKT and Roxtiger will play each other's training matches, as they are both their biggest enemies on their way to winning the championship.

And RoxTiger has a grudge against SKT.

Last year, when they were still called KOO TIGER, they represented the LCK division in IME9, but they were abused by WE, who was at the bottom of the LPL at that time.

There is also a meme: 'There are twelve more on the list than me.' ’

At the time, the Tigers were not less disgusted by SKT fans within the league.

LCK's situation is that the fans of all teams are not dealing with SKT's fans, because SKT has been too successful in recent years, and even their fans have become inflated and trampled on others on the Internet, which is a bit similar to S8's RNG fans, and they will be confiscated at every turn.

The world has been bitter for a long time, and LCK has also been bitter for a long time.

In the finals of S5, the Tigers lost to SKT, and this year they are bound to get revenge!

"Hey, Jankos came to me just now and offered to make an appointment with us for a training match." Li Hansheng responded with a smile.

"Tortoise!" Ah Shui's eyes widened on the side, "Is this my Brother Hansheng's connections?" ”

“emmmm。” Li Hansheng said the reason, "Jankos thinks that Xiang Renjie is easier to bully, and playing training matches with us will help him play with better self-confidence to face SKT, and I am more gentle, unlike SMEB who played to the death and abused their family on the road, which made their family's self-confidence on the road lost." ”

It's a bit funny to say, but it's very reasonable.

At this point, it's almost impossible to expect the players to improve by leaps and bounds, and everyone's understanding of the version is also on the same page.

The competition is to play on the spot.

Mindset is a factor that affects on-the-spot performance.

It's like a senior high school student who has been asked to study hard and review well throughout the semester, but a few days before the college entrance examination, the teacher who usually wants to scold you for a little desertion will take the initiative to persuade you to put down the books in your hand and go outside, go around, and play.

It's pretty much the same now.

The semi-finals are less than a week away, and it is necessary to cooperate with Riot to shoot various promotional materials in the middle.

There is very little time left for you to train, and the training at this stage is to keep your hands hot, and it will not allow you to improve by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.

So why not choose a lighter way to train and have a good mindset?

"Hey, hey, hey! Who does Jankos look down on? Condi looked unhappy and immediately scolded!

No way.

In a team where 3C is so dazzling, his jungler and green hair support are both small and transparent, and 3C has taken away the attention of too many fans, leaving them with very little attention.

Even once there is a problem with the team, because of the small number of fans, they can easily become the target of the blame and be criticized by fans.

Fortunately, TOP has been winning, so Green Hair and Condi can resist pressure, after all, as long as you are winning, fans will not have any opinions.

In addition to the harmonious relationship between the players, another important reason for the good atmosphere in the team is to win all the time!

As long as you can win, you can cover up a lot of problems.

A few hours of travel are fleeting.

In October, the temperature in New York was getting colder, and the team members all put on warm clothes and took a group of photos outside the airport with the team flag, and then left by bus.

"Huh?" As soon as he got in the car, Ah Shui spoke, "Are you talking about Chicago as the prototype of Gotham City, or New York?" I think a lot of people say that New York is the hometown of clowns. ”

"If you're more serious, then it's definitely more fitting in New York, where are the rich people in Chicago? It's already gone......" Li Hansheng rolled his eyes.

Gotham City, where the people are simple, not only has a group of 'genius madmen', but also a group of rich people.

If you really want to talk about the original form, Li Hansheng feels that Gotham City is like a microcosm of the country of America.

The rich are in control of everything from above, ignoring the poor at the bottom.

Why is the Joker the most popular villain?

Because everyone can see a little bit of their own shadow from this character.

The bus drove slowly on the road, and Li Hansheng could clearly see that although the streets of New York were still dark, at least they were not as outrageous as Chicago.

On the streets of Chicago, you can barely see colors other than black.

"We're still living near the venue."

LPL only has one lone seedling left, and Vincent has become a supernumerary member of the TOP, he pointed out the window to popularize science to the players, "The front side is Madison Square Garden, and the semifinals will be held there." ”

The popularity of League of Legends all over the world has made Riot make a lot of money.

This can be seen in the venues where the events are held, almost all of which are rented out of the most famous landmarks in the area.

Madison Square Garden is one of the famous landmarks in New York, the home court of the New York Knicks is inside, and Jeremy Lin, a Chinese player who set off Lin's crazy craze in the past few years, played in the New York Knicks.

"There's the Empire State Building over there, you've probably heard of it, right?" Vincent pointed to a huge building not far away, "Let me tell you an interesting thing, the Empire State Building was originally 381 meters high, but in 1951 it increased by 62 meters, guess how tall it is now?" ”

A very simple math problem, but Vincent seems to overestimate the mental arithmetic ability of the group of in-laws in front of him.

I waited for several seconds and no one gave an answer.

Vincent suddenly replied with some tears and laughter, "443 meters!" ”

"Huh?"

Everyone looked confused, if you want to say 443, won't this be a reaction!

"Good fellows! Affectionate child wandering god, this is a tribute to the Empire State Building? Condi laughed and teased.

"Embarrassing! Isn't it a tribute to Yuan Shao? I see that netizens call him E-sports Yuan Shao, 443 male. "Ah Shui surfs the Internet with high intensity every day, and he basically knows all about these nicknames.

"The child is too outrageous, if the nest plays such a shameful data, he will definitely retire on the spot." IMP was very arrogant and sarcastic.

The two used to be rivals in love, and they were both pursuing a female anchor called Shenjing Roast Meat, but in the end, it was Gu Sungbin who had the last laugh, and now the two of them are sweet, often chatting with voice and video at every turn.

The team members soon came to the hotel, took out their documents to check in, and went to the room to deal with their luggage as soon as possible.

Li Hansheng's suitcase was stuffed with almost all kinds of uniforms from other teams, and those who didn't know thought he was running to Amerika to buy goods.

After a short rest, everyone went to the training room provided by the official.

I had to make an appointment with someone for the training match, and I could only play the rank of the American uniform at the beginning to maintain my feel.

Besides.

The white crescent moon also brought in a large number of training teams to collect and summarize the race data about Roxtiger.

But he himself knows that the value of these data references is not very large.

"Damn! Why is RoxTiger so easy along the way? "The white crescent moon is a little crazy.

From the group stage to the quarterfinals, no team has been able to force Roxtiger to the best of its best, and no one knows what tactics they have left.

Roxtiger's only routine that has been shown so far is the single dragon king in one hand.

It is not for nothing that Kuro is called Han Hu.

In a sense, he and Xiaohu are the same kind of people.

The ability to match the line is limited, and it is impossible to play the advantage of the line through its own operation.

But both of them are very good at giving feedback and helping their teammates.

It's just that the way you help your teammates makes a big difference.

The way Xiaohu plays is that his teammates help him build an advantage, and then he feeds back his advantage to his teammates, frequently going to the two wings to support.

Kuro's approach is that he doesn't need his teammates to help him build a lane advantage, he takes the initiative to help his teammates, and even many times would rather lose his lane to make his teammates develop better.

This type of mid-laner is the type that Gao Dewei is more afraid of.

The essence of Gao Dewei's style of play is the style of playing of the Earth Binding Spirit, but fortunately, in the World Championship version, he is biased towards the Earth Binding Spirit, which gives him a lot of room to play!

Even many domestic professional players and some up masters have analyzed it.

The S6 version of this world is simply tailor-made for TOP, almost purely based on the personal ability of 3C, whoever can play an advantage in the lane stage can become the final winner.

Coincidentally.

The real strength of TOP is also based on the strong personal ability of 3C, and we all know that there is a problem with TOP's no-suke linkage, and the wild area is the breakthrough, but why are few teams able to take advantage of this??

Very simple......

The top line is too strong, my wild area is a breakthrough, but I can't stand up to my three lines can play the advantage of the line, my own three roads are inferior lines, who dares to go into the wild area?

An important premise for defeating TOP is that you must not say that you want to win online, but you must be able to resist the pressure given by TOP, and then have a jungler with super personal ability to defeat TOP's jungle area.

At present, only Roxtiger has such conditions.

"At that time, the dragon king must be targeted, and if we are on the red side, there will also be a leopard girl who will also be targeted, in this way...... The ban position is a bit tight. ”

The hero pool of the top players is very deep, and there is a lot of room for manipulation on BP.

But this time in the face of Roxtiger, there will be a possible lack of ban, and it can be seen from this that Roxtiger is indeed the strongest enemy that TOP has encountered so far.

Actually, the same troubles.

It's also playing out on Roxtiger's side.

Nofe had a distressed look on his face, "Xiba, why is the TOP hero pool so deep?" I don't know what to ban at all. ”

"Then let's target the jungler." Peanut smiled confidently, "I'm going to definitely blow up the jungler on the other side!" ”

"It's a really good proposition." Nofe thinks so too.

At this stage of the game, everyone will basically know what heroes they will take.

I can't target 3, but the wild area has an obvious ecological chain!

If you want to beat the top in iger!

The wild area is the point!

Peanut must be allowed to get enough advantages in the wild area to feedback to the line in order to break the surface, after all, the collapse of the wild area will definitely bring trouble to the line!

"Let's not talk about this for now, what is the actual effect of the combination you came up with before??" Nofe looked expectantly at the two elders of his own bottom road duo.

"Didn't some fans provide us with an account, but the rank is not too high, only diamonds, and the effect is very good." Pray explained.

In order to prevent the leakage of black technology tactics, they didn't even use the super number provided by their fists.

It's a deliberately borrowed account from fans who have an American service account.

But they are not a club like SKT that has a large number of fans around the world, nor is it like TOP that has many international students to help, they can only rely on themselves.

The number of diamonds borrowed is already the limit.

Diamond ...... in the United States

So much so that when they trained, they didn't dare to take it too seriously, for fear that the gap in strength would be too great, which would lead them to misjudge the strength of their black technology tactics.

"Forget it, don't use the fan's account in the future, let Wang Hao and Jing Hao accompany you to customize, they should be a little more reliable than the opponents encountered in the diamond game." Nofe waved his hand and gave a more reasonable suggestion.

"Okay." SMEB nodded, "Anyway, both SKT and H2K refuse to play training matches with us, and Rank and customization make no difference to us. ”

"Then it's decided!"

…………

After finishing the busy shooting task, Li Hansheng and his teammates dragged their tired bodies back to the hotel.

There is no training task today, and everyone is free to schedule their time.

Li Hansheng didn't want to play games, so he simply lay in the room and browsed the domestic consultation with his mobile phone.

Plainly.

I just want to see how domestic fans shoot their rainbow farts!

It is the most vain age in life, and it is human nature to want to see fans boast about themselves.

TOP, as the only lPL seedling at present, is almost always discussing TOP.

[SKT and H2K matches still need to be watched? SKT is steadily entering the finals, faker is worthy of being the father of Riot, this schedule is really easy, and he is guaranteed all the way to the finals. 】

[The most disgusting thing is that TOP and ROX will definitely play very intensely, and the hole cards of both sides are all revealed, and SKT can wait for work. 】

[I think jankos is very powerful, Yue Lun is also waiting for revenge, looking forward to Yue Lun's successful revenge! ] 】

[No one really thinks ter, right?] This year, ROX is the strongest team in South Korea, and you win the top? 】

[Good guys! Your kr dad can't guarantee that he will win the top, but you, who is kneeling as a son, helped your dad blow the cowhide away? 】

[Hee-hee, Krdog is like this. 】

[The finals are going to be LCK's civil war again! ] Fans of the ÷ will reap the taste, I'll put it here, TOP will definitely not win ROX! 】

[How many times does TOP have to win against the Korean team before KRDOG can stop barking?] If you have this time, it's better to care about how your kr dad is preparing for the war, don't be able to afford to lose when the time comes, make excuses! 】

Let's be honest.

A lot of times fans just say a few words back and forth to taunt each other, but they just enjoy it so much.

The posts of LPL fans and LCK fans spraying each other can be regarded as Nikkei posts.

It can only be said that there are still many people who are idle these years.

But a fun person like Lee Han-sung is very happy!

Just when he was surfing the Internet at high intensity, someone on WeChat sent him a message.

It is a cute cat avatar, Li Hansheng took a closer look.

Isn't this special meow fat and little orange??

Only then did he realize that the person who sent the message was Huang Xin, after all, she had personally gone to the base to take care of the two little guys.

"Didn't disturb your rest, did you? Mainly recently, I have collected some data about Rox spontaneously collected from fans on the Internet, and I want to send it to you before the game, so that you can refer to it, and it can be regarded as a part of the fans' hearts! ”

Quite attentive.

The first sentence made Li Hansheng clear that Huang Xin should have deliberately checked the time in New York before sending the message, but now it should be early in the morning in China. ?

Without waiting for him to reply, a lot of excel sheets and word documents were sent on the opposite side, and there was even a PPT.

Li Hansheng clicked on them one by one.

This should be Huang Xin's effort to summarize some sporadic data counted by online fans.

In fact, most of the data TOP training group also provides.

Including the number of eyelets, eyelet habits, and so on.

In the Roxtiger team, Peanut is a player who has no eye insertion habits, and his eye insertion stats are at the bottom.

But after all, this is a part of people's hearts, Li Hansheng replied immediately.

"Thank you for your valuable data, thank you for your hard work."

"Hey, no hard duck! It's hard work when you play. Huang Xin replied to the message very quickly, and it was still customary to add a cute emoji at the end.

"This time to fight RoxTiger must be a good duck! I think if you beat Rox and make it to the Grand Finals, you're going to win the championship! ”

"I will work hard to live up to your hopes!"

"We'll pick you up when the time comes! Please be surprised then, don't say that I secretly told you about their preparations in advance. ”

"Huh? When you say that, I can't help but want to snitch! You don't want to ...... this classmate."

"Daba! The neon player ......"

The two of them chatted for a while.

Ah Shui, who was squatting on the toilet, returned to the room and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Hansheng, you are smiling so happily, who are you chatting with??" ”

"What? You have to hide it from your brother when you fall in love, right? ”

", what's the matter?" Li Hansheng put his phone aside, "It's just that the fans provided me with some data, although it doesn't have much effect, but I still have to thank people." ”

"That's right." Ah Shui didn't ask, he lay on the bed and looked straight at the ceiling, and then said, "We'll win, Brother Hansheng?" ”

"Of course! We're going to win! ”

Li Hansheng gave a categorical answer!

October 22nd!

League of Legends players around the world are once again focused on America!

Only this time I came to Madison Square Garden in New York!

The scene was full, and all the spectators would not miss such a confrontation with the highest intensity in this World Championship!

The contest is going on until today!

Which team is strong, and what is the strength of which team.

The audience also has a scale in their hearts!

No doubt!

ter。

Two of the most dominant teams in the Worlds to date!

Now the two teams are finally going to collide head-on!

It is destined to be a fierce confrontation like Mars hitting the Earth!

The winner will get a ticket to Los Angeles!

The loser can only regret returning to China and withdraw from the championship competition!
