It's gold that will shine wherever it goes, and the dynamic and funny effect of "Five-Step Snake" with Masto is unexpectedly good, very magical, and it quickly became popular on the Internet after being created by others, what "Learn these five steps, and the flower pot becomes a big tree!" "Learn these five steps and go directly to Tianlu!" Such cheeky remarks are even more widely circulated.

Masto won his own spring early in CSGO, and the original five-step snake Lip was also frequently mentioned, which was a win-win.

During this time, Li Pu's live broadcast room was endless, and even before the broadcast started, there was a barrage chatting with each other, and it seems that there were really brothers who went to Tuao to see Li Pu's scene, which was also told by Li Pu by his good brother Zhang Lei in the back.

Happy times are always short-lived, and this time when he returned to China, Li Pu not only made up for some live broadcast time, but also went out to play with his friends for a few days, which gave him a full rest and replenished his energy.

Although Lip feels that he is like the Iron Man, he can be full of energy as soon as he arrives in the ring, because he has enough motivation to win the honor, but in fact this mental exhaustion and psychological exhaustion is there and cannot be ignored, and this is true for any competitive player.

In addition to these things, Li Pu also received a fax from EXCEL Sports Company to send him the endorsement contract of SteelSeries and Zhuowei, saying that he wanted to make a mouse and keyboard for him, just like Sen Po and other top professional players, he now has all the conditions to move the peripheral company, whether it is in terms of strength or commercial value.

Li Pu naturally will not refuse, good equipment can make him do more with less, and having a peripheral of his own is also full of temptation for him, which means that he can achieve fame and fortune, of course, these peripherals must be good enough, and Li Pu will not immediately use these newly produced peripherals during the competition, because the use of unfamiliar peripherals will obviously make his strength decline.

The two parties agreed on the intention and the various terms and amounts of the contract, but since Lip was still in China, EXCEL Sports could not sign the contract without Lip's signature authorization, and could only choose to meet with Lip in Sydney, where representatives of the peripheral company would also be present.

In a flash, it was time to return to the team.

……

Stepping into the hotel where Liquid stayed in Sydney this time, Li Pu could clearly feel the change in the atmosphere of the team, which was basically divided into three factions, a chicken in the center of the storm with its own faction, coach Adren and Milk Ball with a faction, and the two Maple Leaf brothers with him.

The contradictions are almost laid out on the surface, and this relationship is clear, except for the intersection during training, there is basically no communication in daily life.

Lip couldn't help but wonder if they would be able to win the IEM Sydney championship this time, and although he was confident that he could play to his full strength, CSGO is still a team game after all, and it is sometimes difficult for a single person to make the game a final decision, making the team's margin for error to win.

And after a training match one day, some players are not satisfied with their position in the team, such as directing a milk ball, or a chicken.

Milk Ball also wants to brush up the data, he thinks that Lip has eaten the dividend of the sniper rifle, and he is a little jealous of the various endorsement contracts that Lipp has received; The increasingly autistic chicken also blushed, and he once again reaffirmed his position in the team, saying that he has already booked the MVP of IEM Sydney.

It's irreconcilable, coach Adren is on pins and needles, he supports the milk ball, but he doesn't want this to happen during the game, after all, the championship is more about his prize money, you must know that a large part of his contract is an incentive clause, and certain conditions must be met to be able to get the money.

"Why do you think you're going to win the MVP? I've put my words here, even if Brother Pu can't get it, I'm going to take it! Twistzz had a seizure on the spot and challenged a chicken, already unhappy with the club's previous approach, and now even more furious.

Seeing that the two brothers, who had been close to each other on another timeline, now turned to Captain America and said, "What are you kidding?" balls! Do you really want to snipe? ”

In the face of Lip's oppressive gaze, the milk ball hesitated, but soon nodded vigorously, he was eager to compete, and he also had a lot of criticism for the club, deeply understanding that the unshakable position of a chicken could only turn to grab Lip's interests.

But Lip's interests are not something he can share when he says so.

"Fack! Then try it, I'll buy myself a sniper! Li Pu scolded angrily, since it has reached this point, there is no need to retreat and endure, you must know that in the case of controlling variables, the liquid has not reached such a peak before he came.

"What do you want to do? Calm me down! Adren rubbed his temples, he had to come out and take two steps, otherwise the game really couldn't be played, "MVP free competition, as for the sniper rifle, you two take turns to use it, whoever has good data before the finals will win the finals!" ”

This is obviously biased in favor of the ball, but he really doesn't have that ability!

Wanting to eat the bonus of the sniper rifle and be careful to turn into the bonus itself, Li Pu thought with a sneer, nodded to the coach, and then slammed the door and left.

"Humph!" Twistzz followed, and he stood firmly on Lipp's side.

Soon the huge training room became empty, and only NAF was left alone, who was still silently training for guns. Just now, the No. 1 free man in North America said that he didn't unite with anyone, and he was a wall-riding faction, because his eyes lit up at the thought of being able to compete freely for MVP, you must know that he was last year's TOP6 player, how could he not be angry.

The drama continued until the night before the tournament, when the club's hierarchy personally called to inquire about the incident and gave the players better promises, and on the surface it appeared that the storm had been suppressed and even Twistzz was appeased.

But Lip was indifferent, and this atmosphere of false unity could not change the contradictions between the two men, as if this team, which had a good upward momentum and was expected to establish a dynasty of its own, was about to fall apart.

So the first time he saw EXCEL Sports, Li Pu said that his departure was imminent, and he hoped that they could help him find a suitable team.

There's still a long way to go this year, and maybe it's not impossible to start all over again with a different team, especially if you can also cross the liquid to win the Grand Slam.

Thinking of this, Li Pu felt a sense of joy in his heart, and the haze was swept away, but when a monk hit the clock for a day, he would still help the team win IEM Sydney this time, which is also related to his honor, bonus and professionalism.

Looking at the opponents of IEM Sydney this time, Lipp only feels that the prickly heat crane who has played in Miami is the biggest threat to them, maybe the Brazilians of MIBR can also pose some threat to them after regaining their strength, as for the other thirteen participating teams, they are actually just going through the motions, and they are basically not taken into account by Lip.

It is worth mentioning that the Chinese team VG, Qiyou Sanfool brought freeman and Kaze out of the encirclement, and the hotel they stayed in was not far from the liquid, during this time, 259 often brought people to go out to eat with Li Pu, and they came and went, this group of domestic professional brothers also got acquainted with Li Pu a lot, and understood that Li Pu's madness during the interview was just his protective color, and they all became his fans.

Speaking of fans, Li Pu has received a message from his good brother Zhang Lei a few days before the start of the game, this buddy opened a group with fans who wanted to come to the scene to support Li Pu directly to Sydney, and after inquiring about the hotel where Li Pu was staying, he came to Li Pu for several days to sign autographs and take photos.

Originally, these should not be allowed by the club, and the team has its own media day to be held, but due to the atmosphere in the team and various reasons, except for the strict requirements of the team leader and adren during training, the rest of the free time is almost left to the players.

The IEM Sydney competition will be held at the Qudos Bank Arena, a venue for the 2,000-year-old Sydney Olympics and known as the Superdome.

The site is not too far from the hotel where Liquid is staying, and it can be reached in ten minutes by car.

On the first day of the competition, eight BO1 matches will be played at 10 a.m. at the same time, and there will be no spectators at that time.

Adren reiterated the importance of unity in the lounge, noting that in the first match against Indonesian team BOOT-d[S], he used a sniper rifle for the milk ball and then Lipp for the next match.

But the protagonists of this match are indeed not the two who fought for the right to use the sniper rifle before the game, the Indonesian team of the Chinese club BOOT only scored five points, and the hair director played his own dominance in the game clock, and he cut a 1.76rating on the NUKE nuclear crisis, which is quite an explosive statistic!

"Awesome, Russell!" This made Li Pu, who won two key one-on-two endgames and slashed 1.54 rating, also looked at him after the game, the little brother was okay, he touched Twistzz's handsome silver-gray hair, which was really happy for Twistzz.

As for the milk ball that took the initiative to take the sniper rifle in this game, it can be said that it is lackluster, quite average, and it can score a rating of 1.18 in the tailwind game, which is only 0.03 higher than a chicken whose mentality exploded and fell into autism and had the lowest record, of course, this is not bad in the case of a team victory.

And just as the Liquids returned to the break room for a break, a news about the atmosphere in the Liquid team and speculation that Lip would leave the team after playing IEM Sydney had already broken out, and the informant even anticipated Lip's next home.

said that he had a nose and eyes, which made Li Pu wonder if it was his agency that did it, this is simply a liquid mentality in the game, but Li Pu doesn't care about these now, let the bullets fly for a while!

"Russell, focus on the next game!" When twistzz and NAF sat across from Lip but used their phones to sneak a message to him, Lip replied in unison.

This time it was a chicken's turn and Adren was dumbfounded, a chicken honestly did not have any contradiction with Lipp, he knew how much a top-notch sniper rifle would help the team, he actually just didn't want to stand in the shadow of Lip, but what he didn't know was that when the club gave him a stake that was not unequal and uneven, Lip couldn't accept it.

Coach Adren may be the most difficult one, he understands who the team's big daddy is, if the team's results plummet after Lip leaves, then he will definitely be pointed out by Qianfu and become the team's backbiter.

An undercurrent was surging, and an eerie atmosphere persisted in the lounge for quite some time.

It wasn't until another Group A match when Ban's big cousin's mousesports rats were taken away 16-14 by Führer Tabsen's German tank, BIG, that the dreary atmosphere improved slightly, as it meant that their next BO3 opponent would be BIG.

ropz is difficult to support alone, the young player frozen's performance is average, as for the big cousin and derong chrisJ, you can't ask for more from them, the most important thing is that the new Turkish sniper woxic played a disastrous performance, Li Pu looked at the data report after the game and thought, at this time, the mouse has changed its appearance, the departure of the sun god sunny and the sniper oskar in the top 20 in 18 years has obviously reduced their strength, and they are still in the run-in and labor pains.

"Hey! Finn! Hey! Lip! When Lipp opened the door and walked out of the lounge, the Norwegian courtesan was greeting the unhappy Kerrigan who was walking towards him, and after spotting Lip, he greeted Lipp again, but it seemed that he wanted to renew his relationship with the top Danish conductor.

"Hey! rain！ Hey! Finn! Karrigan, a man who looks like JW, is known as the big cousin in China, and Li Pu also greets him.

Due to visa issues, Niko could not participate in this IEM game, and could only be played by masseur YNN, plus the new Polish god of war neo Neo, he was still able to easily win the BO1 of the cheifs team who played the first game against Tuao.

"I know you, Lip, mud howl (in Chinese)! You've had a great year! Do you know? You're a role model for Robin (Ropz) now, haha! The Danish conductor, who had obtained a double master's degree in business administration and auditing, did not vent his bad feelings to others, he winked at Lip, and then rushed up to give Rain a bear hug.

It seems that the relationship between the two is still very good, but he is a ropz idol is something Li Pu didn't expect, he looked at the rain god and Kai Ruigan who were hugging each other, and walked straight out of the stadium, first breathed and then played a BO3 game.

Looking at the blue sky, the warm sunlight washed Li Pu's body and mind, he looked down and opened his mobile phone to see that the Huaguo team VG was also knocked down by EG 16-4 to the loser bracket of Group B, this is simply a massacre, it seems that there is still a long way to go!

As for Group A, Liquid was the Pajama Ninja NIP and the Cowboy Renegades who defeated their opponents to reach the other semi-final of the group stage.
