Chapter 399: MSI's Ultimate Battle, Open!
Training.
Or training.
Endless training.
Many people will find this very tiring, boring, and boring.
After all, no matter how much you like things and become jobs, it will only be a mess.
It's like a song you really love, the moment you set it as your alarm clock, it's already the song you hate the most.
In fact, there are more and more League of Legends pros today who keep the idea that "it's just a job".
100% enthusiasm, withered into 100% work.
Xu Ruoguang actually gets tired of League of Legends sometimes.
But often the time is not very long, as it is now.
"A lot of people say it's not a good thing to be number one in the world, Xiu'er."
He let go of the mouse, ended the day's rank, and said with a smile.
In the evening, some of the yellow sunlight poured on the side of his face, and there was an indescribable taste.
"Why?"
Xu Xiu was a little puzzled.
At this time, he was full of honor and future, and he didn't understand why Xu Ruoguang suddenly said such a thing.
"Because, the goal is different."
Xu Ruoguang rubbed his wrist and spoke calmly.
"I used to fight with other professional players, but now I'm fighting with myself."
"In this situation, it's hard for a professional to notice the other players behind him catching up, or, overtaking."
Ahead, there is no opponent for him.
It's about the same as the 30-year-old sword demon Dugu seeking defeat, looking around, and there is no rival.
There is only oneself in the road ahead, and it is really easy to relax in such a situation.
"Brother Guang, do you want to retire?"
Xu Xiu touched his head and asked suddenly.
"What bullshit."
Xu Ruoguang scolded with a smile.
"Brother Guang sighs about life, I have noticed this, how can I want to retire? Do you know what is the world's first gold content, Lao Tzu has not retired, no one can snatch it. β
"I'm pretending, you know?"
"When I see this situation in the future, I will give a thumbs up and say that Brother Guang is awesome."
Xu Xiu nodded as if he didn't understand and gave a thumbs up.
"Light, Brother Light,?"
"Yes, I'm happy."
Xu Ruoguang nodded with satisfaction.
"Photon, why don't you get bored? I'm a little sick to my stomach sometimes when I see this B game. β
Uzi complained.
"Is it tiring to walk on the ideal path?"
"Speak human words."
Uzi complained calmly.
"I feel that the top players in the new era have not beaten a few, which is a little uncomfortable."
Xu Ruoguang stretched out his hand.
"Sure enough, this is you."
Uzi sneered, "It's so bad fun. β
"It's hard to say, but the main thing is that I have to treat them fairly."
Xu Ruoguang picked up a bottle of Wangzi milk handed over by Xu Xiu, and it was beautiful.
"It seems a bit too much to beat smeb before, I feel a little sorry for him, I thought about it, let's beat the other top orders like this."
He said earnestly.
"That way, they can remember the Emperor ID."
"It's fair and just, and there is no world where only SMEB is injured."
"He was playing you when he debuted, and now the newcomer is playing you at your peak, I think it's outrageous when I think about it, but fortunately I'm not a single."
Uzi smacked his lips.
"Don't say much about that, how are your hands now?"
Xu Ruoguang shook his head and asked.
The day before the finals, Uzi still chose to train to mention his touch.
In fact, Xu Ruoguang was against it.
Because many times before, when he came to the training room early, he could see Uzi frowning and carefully pressing his shoulders and wrists.
"Fortunately, it doesn't feel particularly painful, at least it's not as uncomfortable as in the S7 finals, and my hands are shaking when I really sleep in bed at that time."
Uzi opened his mouth optimistically.
"I really can't ask the team doctor to give me a shot of painkillers."
"Take care of yourself."
"I know, don't worry, you Uzi brother still wants to play the S game, and it's impossible to play your hands for an MSI."
Uzi smiled.
Xu Ruoguang didn't say more.
After dinner, it was still a review of today's training match conducted by Redmi.
Redmi's expression was also a little tired, but his eyes were sharper.
"Tomorrow, it's the last BO5 against IG."
"In the semi-finals, we easily sent away the opponent 3-0, which is good, I can see that everyone's form has been completely lifted, there are hardly any big mistakes, and I am very happy."
His eyes softened, his hands rested on the table, and he laughed.
"MSI's journey, there is only IG left."
"Butβ"
He paused, and his expression became serious again.
"IG, it's not a very easy opponent to deal with."
"Zhang Yongji."
He shouted, and the team's analyst nodded silently and projected a map onto the projection board in front of him.
"You see, these are some of the overlapping points in the IG after a few games."
Redmi turned around and pressed on the spot marked red on the map.
"When they're on the red side, the jungler will be more around the mid-to-upper rhythm."
"This is the one he takes the most."
"After the red BUFF is played, the stone man will be brushed directly, and then the stone man will squat on the road for a while, and then he will choose to brush F6, and then turn his head to observe the situation in the middle lane."
"The tactical status of the jungler in IG is very low!"
Redmi said solemnly.
"Sometimes he doesn't even go to see the crabs at all, more often it's for online services."
"It's a typical rhythm jungler."
Xu Ruoguang nodded slightly, agreeing with Redmi's judgment.
In fact, the tactical position is easy to judge.
When Canyon gets the wild core, if Xu Ruoguang or Showmaker has an advantage.
No matter which river crab it is, they will definitely take the initiative to help Canyon fight.
Even in the case of getting the early hero, it will actively seek 3v3.
But IG junglers are clearly not.
He is indifferent to the river crabs, and his teammates have no intention of helping him fight for them.
Although it is also related to the fact that this version of the river crab is not very critical, it is enough to show that his status is not high.
Can you take it, which jungler doesn't take it?
"IG's style of play is actually very simple, I don't think there's anything to say."
Redmi continued.
"Rely on individual ability, open a breakthrough in the line period, and then through the operation of huddles and small-scale team battles, fight extremely strong in the competition for key resources."
"There's no operation at all, it's all operations and team battles."
"It's a good way to play, but it can be problematic."
"When we select a lineup that is strong in the middle and late stages, as long as there is no problem with the line, IG is not qualified to play with us at all."
"Operation, we are not lacking!"
"But here's the problem."
Redmi paused, looking at Beryl.
"We take the mid-to-late game heroes, and the online ability is a bit too much to fight?"
Beryl reacted quickly and said immediately.
"Yes, I'm relieved to be on the road, and there will be no problems on the bottom road, but the core midfield opposite IG is stronger than what we have to play."
Redmi didn't shy away from Xu Xiu and Canyon at all, and said bluntly.
The last big comeback game is already very indicative of the weakness.
Xu Xiu pursed her lips and nodded.
He admits it, and now that he wants to break Rookie's dominance in the middle lane, it's a little too difficult.
S8's rookie said that he was the world's No. 2 midlaner, and no one dared to say that he was the world's No. 1.
"However, my answer is actually to tell you, beryl, I need you to be more bold to do a linkage with Canyon, you are still a little conservative, you should trust your bottom lane partner more, and believe that Uzi can hold steady."
Redmi looked at Beryl and said.
"Don't be afraid to get scolded for having an accident on the lower road, that's something coaches need to think about! If I really lose, I will take all the responsibility and let them scold me! β
"You are the executor of tactics, I just need you to complete the task I gave you, and that's enough!"
Beryl glanced at Uzi, who nodded at him.
So, Beryl nodded as well.
"If we play IG, we will win!"
Redmi clenched her fists and said this.
"They won't operate, we will!"
"They won't see, we will!"
"They won't link, we will!"
"They only have individual abilities, and they only have the extreme operation of team battles!"
"But, don't we have one!?"
"Emperor is the world's No. 1 top laner, Uzi is the world's top AD, our Nakano is also the Nakano who has won the SKT champion Nakano, and our auxiliary has only been transferred to the auxiliary for half a year to reach the MSI finals, why should we lose?"
"UR, it's the strongest team."
He looked at the players in front of him seriously and said loudly.
"And, we're going to get stronger and stronger!"
"If you say more, I won't say more, have a good rest tonight, don't play rank anymore, and let me go to sleep."
"Uzi, go and ask the team doctor to massage your shoulder again, I noticed that your face is not very good."
"Others, adjourn!"
He patted each member on the shoulder, talked to them cordially, and cheered them on.
This is a move that Redmi has never done before, as South Korean coaches are deliberately maintaining their dignity as coaches.
But at the moment, he chose to be closer to his teammates.
He gambled his future on UR.
At this moment, there is only two words: believe.
At this time, the atmosphere in the IG training room was completely different.
Ah Shui finished playing a rank, and frowned when he turned around.
"Haven't you come back yet?"
Theshy shook his head shyly.
"They, not yet, are back."
"Baolan is back, and King Ning doesn't seem to have it yet."
Rookie took a look.
"Why are we like this?"
Ah Shui was a little confused.
At this time, he is the player who has won the championship in the two world championships of K1 and IP.
From dragging the team back, to gradually becoming the pillar of the team.
Ah Shui is not as lazy as before, and even at this moment, even if the managers of IG are almost not there, he is still serious rank.
After experiencing the training groups of the two teams of K1 and IP, Ah Shui's first reaction to IG was:
β¦β¦ This horse is also considered a team?
The team leader, who is only responsible for ordering takeout, can't handle anything well, even if the team member is sick and can't contact the hospital, and he will be ashamed to say that he can cure it.
[It's really not embarrassing here, if you are interested, you can learn about the IT Theshy hand injury incident at that time, and the team leader said that he didn't need to go to the hospital, he could treat it. γ
[Although I hate zombie fans, I have only one word for theshy's player: pity. γ
Watching the live broadcast all day long, I will contact the players I think are powerful, and the manager who just wants to take the players to dinner at every turn.
Doctor?
No.
Analyst?
Amateur.
Psychiatrist?
Don't be ridiculous.
Version Researcher?
What is that.
The only bright spot of IG is the relatively responsible head coach Kim Chang-so and the assistant coach mafa.
Scold IG, there may be people arguing with you.
But scolding IG management, that's the degree that the old dog's son will applaud.
It's so irresponsible!
For example, at this moment, Su Xiaoluo took the team members out to eat, Ah Shui strongly refused, and Rookie and Theshy did not leave.
But Baolan is still young after all, and he is relatively unconfident and thin-skinned in the IG team, so he still went.
King Ning's words were that he felt that it was nothing to eat, so he went.
And then it hasn't been back yet.
In Ah Shui's eyes, this is really a bit outrageous.
It's not the players who are outrageous, it's the manager.
If he had been in K1, the manager would have kicked 108,000 times.
This kind of person can be a manager, huh?
That Ah Shui thinks his grandmother can too!
At least his grandmother's cooking is delicious.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for King Ning to finally return.
"Let's play a training match, BLG, who finally made an appointment, people have been waiting for us for more than 20 minutes."
Rookie glanced at Ah Shui, whose expression was a little wrong, patted him on the shoulder, and said to King Ning.
"You know, I'm not coming back?"
King Ning nodded casually.
"Actually, if you want me to say, it's useless to train now, it's the last day, and you should rest."
"I've rested yesterday, King Ning."
Ah Shui was patted by Rookie, his expression softened a lot, and he said helplessly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, mine, don't worry, I'll help you catch the training match right away!"
King Ning smiled and apologized, and Ah Shui didn't hold on.
In fact, in the final analysis, there are few players with particularly bad hearts, even Ning Wang, who looks a little lazy.
After the training match, Kim Chang-so communicated with Mafa, the two nodded, and Mafa clapped his hands and called the team's interpreter.
βγβ
Kim Chang-so spoke seriously.
"It is also necessary to strengthen the processing of visual fields."
The translator repeated.
"UR's weakest point is Nakano, and we need Nakano to play better."
"Ning, I need you to pay more attention to the lower lane, so that theshy and Emperor are one-on-one."
"Sometimes the opponent's bottom lane group will be separated, and this is the best time for us to play the rhythm of the road."
"theshy, I will choose a more offensive hero for you, and try to choose a hero with stronger single-belt ability for you in the later stage, I need you to resist the Emperor's lane, but I don't need you to play an advantage in the early stage, can you understand my words?"
Kim Chang-so looked at theshy.
"Inside."
Theshy nodded solemnly.
He knew exactly what Kim Chang-so meant.
I hope that he will develop steadily in the early stage, and then come back to UR in the later stage.
"If you can't do it, you can tell me now."
Kim Chang-so emphasized.
"I was crossed during the lane phase, or if I have a chance to kill the opposite laner, can I call the jungler, or say I can go on myself?"
Theshy asked.
"It's a processing you should think about, I'll just look at the results."
Kim Chang-so shook his head.
"If you want to do it, then do it, if you don't break the rules, it's hard for us to win against UR, their operation is too strong."
Theshy was thoughtful.
Coach Kim's attitude seems to have obviously loosened a lot.
Previously, Coach Kim was very disgusted with Theshy's self-assertion and asked him to play more steadily and reasonably, and win through team battles in the middle and late stages.
But after the last turnaround, Coach Jin was keenly aware that the real big late group, the top single on the opposite side, was a monster.
The champion of the three-time championship is on the list, and the handling of the team is too old-fashioned.
There were hardly any mistakes.
Theshy operates very well, and giving him a useless tank hero in the later stage makes him more prone to problems.
It's still going to be a fight!
UR must be dragged into the rhythm of IG's chaotic war!
Coach Kim is also aware of IG's problems, but it is not possible to correct them for a while.
Even if it is to quench his thirst, he must win this MSI.
Since you can't learn how to operate for a while, you simply don't operate.
Let's fight together!
It's not a good solution, but it's the only way for IG right now.
After the tactical arrangement, Coach Jin left the training room, and at the same time let the players rest early and maintain a good mental state.
"It's a quarter past nine, and at ten o'clock I'll ask the team leader to take away your phones."
That was his last word.
Ah Shui finished taking a shower and opened his WeChat.
First and foremost, there is a small group.
γChampion AD Exchange Groupγ
Inside, the conversation is hot.
The most handsome piglet: JKL, is it going to play MSI tomorrow?
Bang, who has no interest in the championship: It seems that yes, whatever, it's better to lose.
Meng Meng Da imp: kk, this is your ugly face, Bae Jun-sik, it's really funny, Chun Du got angry after being beaten by UR?
Meng Meng Da Imp: Angry? Angry? Angry?
Bang, who has no interest in the championship: Who did I say, it turned out to be a giant god soldier, sorry sorry, I just saw the skin of my skateboard shoes and fainted with laughter, and I saw you talking.
[Note: IMP's real name is Gu Shengbin, a homophonic giant god soldier. γ
Meng Meng Da Imp: Assi, the stolen skin!
Bang, who has no interest in the championship: The top 16 skateboarding shoes that were hammered by the iron man are also worthy of talking to me about this? kk
The most handsome piglet: Don't make any noise, I feel like my Wayne's skin is the most handsome.
Ah Shui couldn't help but laugh.
[Group leader] jackeylove: Isn't it Uzi's skin?
The most handsome piglet: Don't be ridiculous
The most handsome piglet: Anyway, why is your ID normal, our nicknames are weird.
JackeyLove: Because I'm the group leader.
The most handsome piglet: OK
The most handsome piglet: The two crowns AD is really fierce!
Bang who is not interested in the championship: The two crowns AD is indeed fierce!
Meng Meng Da imp: The two crowns AD is really fierce!
Bang who is not interested in the championship: @θθεimp, brother, what are you two AD?
Cute Imp:???
Meng Meng Da Imp: Don't you only have one crown?
Bang:Piglet, who is not interested in the championship, is my senior at SKT, so it's normal for me to echo it.
Bang not interested in the title: Are you?
Ah Shui really didn't hold back.
Ever since he had the whim to pull such a small group, Bang and Imp could be seen arguing almost every day.
Maybe this is the bond between Samsung and SKT.
jackeylove: Not much more, tomorrow in the MSI finals, can you wish me victory?
The most handsome piglet: I feel that the Emperor is too fierce for you to beat.
Meng Meng Da Imp: Indeed, there is one thing to say.
Bang:S6 I'm not interested in the championship.
[The group owner has banned the bang who is not interested in the champion]
[Group leader] jackeylove: Dude has an ID card, do you have one?
[The group owner has lifted the ban on Bang who is not interested in the champion.] γ
Bang who is not interested in the championship: OK.
Meng Meng Da Imp: Xiba, what a disgusting permission.
Ah Shui held back a smile.
[Group leader] jackeylove: steamed buns, you are not blessed?
Meng Meng Da imp: Lao Tzu Xiba is now a little anchor, and he still has to be angry here? Hum!
[Group leader] jackeylove: Didn't think about making a comeback? Recently, the top ten hanbok have been.
Meng Meng Da imp: Emperor gave me an order, and I came back.
The most handsome piglet: O.0?
Bang, who is not interested in the championship: It's a beautiful idea.
However, in the end, these players still gave Ah Shui blessings.
Although they all felt that it was very difficult to fight the Emperor, they still hoped that Ah Shui could win.
Defeating mythology is the best tribute to mythology.
Isn't it?
On the other hand, Xu Ruoguang, who had finished washing, also received cheering encouragement from many players.
Karma's great, Aya's Hirano.
Little five, little peanut, junior brother.
faker, kkoma, marin.
At last. Naturally, it was Ming Kai and Ah Shui.
"Before you know it, have I become friends with so many players?"
Xu Ruoguang smiled.
Mingkai's message is simple.
"Tengjing didn't value you at the time, so I slapped them in the face."
"Wakami, come on."
Although Ah Shui's news is a blessing, it more reflects the will to fight.
"Brother Guang, wait, your undefeated record in the competition will be ended tomorrow!"
"Play better, and don't lose too ugly."
Xu Ruoguang thought about it for a long time, and finally only gave him a number.
Tranquility and Distance:6
It's night, and the moon and stars are scarce.
Xu Ruoguang fell asleep quietly.
Even if there is no opponent in the road ahead, how can you stop there?
A true professional player is to have a heart that never gives up.
Confused?
There will be.
Fed up?
Also.
However, after a short period of exhaustion, Xu Ruoguang will always burn with a new will to fight.
Honor, he never too much.
Burdened with the expectations of fans, burdened with the desires of teammates, and burdened with the eyes of so many people who believe in themselves.
What is the reason to give up?
Xu Ruoguang hopes that in the future after he retires one day, someone will point to his honor in the World Esports Hall of Fame and say.
He can take his place.
theshy, interesting opponents.
The new generation of players represented by him has begun to challenge him.
He was looking forward to someone challenging him.
Maybe one day, he will retire after all, and the ID belonging to the Emperor will eventually be bleak forever.
But, not today!
Maybe one day, he will also meet an opponent he can't beat no matter what, and the era of the Emperor will also come to an end, and a new era is coming.
But, not today!
He was looking forward to the arrival of the challengers, and he was carrying countless eyes on his back.
He sat on the throne of the strongest top laner of this era, waiting for them.
If there is a newcomer who wants to follow his example.
Well, he will do the best of this example.
This......
That's it, Xu Ruoguang!
