"Across the mountains and seas, former opponents and teammates will eventually meet in the semi-finals of S8, what kind of stories will they experience, and what kind of future will they write?"

"Ah, life, you are so wonderful, and so magical, it is difficult to give up!"

"Get out of here, don't go crazy here."

Xu Ruoguang rolled his eyes at Beryl, who seemed to want to become a bard, and unceremoniously raised his hand to give him a weak burst of Silas.

At this time, Beryl shook his wrist, straightened his neckline, and sighed in a very unappetizing tone,

"Oh, fate."

Elegant, so elegant!

He saluted Xu Ruoguang, elegant and funny, and Uzi next to him couldn't hold back anymore and laughed wildly there.

"Brother Guang, don't you think you really have a fate with the faker player?"

Beryl's slow opening.

"No, I just think it's a little disgusting."

Xu Ruoguang smashed over a bottle of Wangzi milk, and Beryl quickly caught it and spoke respectfully.

"Thank you, my great Brother Guang."

"What the hell are you mad about?"

Xu Ruoguang is really a little numb.

I'm going to get some fresh air when I come to the lounge today, and as soon as I came to the lounge, I saw Beryl and that disgusting person.

This kind of teammate is really outrageous!

"Hey, hey."

Beryl smiled and handed over her phone.

"Brother Guang, take a look, Riot officially made a semi-final promotional video."

Xu Ruoguang was just about to take it, but Beryl suddenly took it back.

Xu Ruoguang: ?

"How can I see such a good thing with you? Of course, everyone will watch it together. ”

Beryl positive color.

Xu Ruoguang only thought he was noisy.

"I'm not interested, I'm training."

Ten minutes later, Xu Ruoguang, who had a blank face, sat on the sofa in the lounge.

The left hand is Xu Xiu, and the right hand is beryl.

He turned his head, "Xiu'er, can you let me go?" ”

"Brother, it's very interesting."

Xu Xiu said seriously.

"I want to train."

Xu Ruoguang sighed and said.

"Brother, it's really interesting."

“……”

it.

Redmi, who was wearing big pants, pulled out her pants every day and closed the curtains when she was done.

"Release, release!"

He sat down on the couch, put his hand to his nose and sniffed it, and nodded in satisfaction.

It's still a familiar taste.

I didn't smell it for a day, and I felt uncomfortable.

Redmi had a hobby when he was a child, and he had to smell it after picking his feet.

Xu Ruoguang, who was coerced, was helpless, and could only look at the screen in front of him.

With a somewhat soothing rhythm, two lines of English appear in the center of the screen.

THE ONE

AND

THE TOP

As the English letters faded away, Lee Sang-hyuk, who was still young, appeared on the screen.

“2013，OGN，Spring。”

In the spring of 2013, Lee Sang-hyuk made his debut.

He had a calm look and piercing eyes.

The hair that was lifted up made him even more aggressive.

Although the shape of faker in this period was complained about like sand kernel rice, it has to be said that it is indeed very oppressive.

However, he made his debut at this time and did not make his opponent feel the pressure.

The opponent's ID is an ambition that looks contemptuous and relaxed, without any attention.

Mr. An may never have dreamed that he would also be whipped one day.

At this time, the head of Ann is nursing the baby.

The next shot is Xu Ruoguang.

“2015，OGN，summer。”

Summer 2015, July 29th.

Xu Ruoguang, debut.

In the camera, he has slowly stood up.

And with the director's glance at the scene, the scene without any cheers formed a stark contrast with Raven, who had a super perfect record of eight bars.

The handsome young man's expression did not change and he walked off the stage.

"faker lost his chance to go to the S4 World Finals! SKT, poured in the bubble race! ”

The camera switched again, and faker looked a little stunned this time.

In the next second, the scene of EDG winning the championship in 2015MSI appeared.

"Let's congratulate EDG on defeating strong rival SKT and winning the first League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational Tournament!"

Lee Sang-hyuk stepped down unwillingly.

The music gradually became more and more exciting.

The two people who were walking opposite each other in the darkness suddenly stretched out their hands.

In the bright or dim light, smiles appeared on the faces of Xu Ruoguang and Lee Sang-hyuk.

"This is the promotional video for the finals of the summer competition, I still remember, he was reluctant to shoot at that time."

Xu Ruoguang looked at his past self, some nostalgia, and some emotion.

Memories sometimes seem like they're not worth mentioning at all, but they always give you a blow when you feel like they're gone.

It's like seeing off a departed loved one.

Maybe I could still control my emotions at the time, but when I looked at the traces of his or her life, tears suddenly flowed unconsciously.

On the screen, a line of English appeared.

The translated meaning is simple.

"Double Star"

The scene of crazy screams, the crowd surging like waves, and the IDs they shouted in their mouths.

Emporer！

“2015，Season5，Berlin。”

2015 World Finals, Berlin!

"What a terrible reign! How powerful it is to make people tremble! This is SKT! This is Emporer and faker! No one knows how to beat them, they are the strongest top and mid laners in the world right now! ”

European and American hosts roared wildly.

"Not one of them!"

"We can believe that as long as they continue to cooperate, a new dynasty will be established!"

However, the climax is only in a split second.

In the next shot, Xu Ruoguang was already wearing a K1 team uniform, looking ahead calmly.

In front of him, Lee Sang-hyuk, who was wearing an SKT team uniform, clenched his fists, and there was happiness and loneliness in his eyes.

"Let's congratulate K1 for dominating S6 with a record of winning all the finals!"

"Maybe in the future, there will never be a team like K1 again. But we're at least for now. And send them the best wishes! ”

In the voiceover, Xu Ruoguang shed tears at the finals scene, and the picture was also frozen at this time.

"It's a little disgusting, buddy doesn't edit when he's handsome, just cut when he's crying, right?"

Xu Ruoguang pursed his lips, although there were inexplicable emotions surging in his heart, he still controlled it.

It was the first time he shed tears in the ring, and the only one so far.

For him, K1 is also a memory that cannot be more profound.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Lee Sang-hyuk smiled brightly, stood side by side with Xu Ruoguang again, and stood on the podium of S7.

"In 2017, he, with him, became teammates again."

Such a sentence was written in English on the screen, and then a very high praise was used as a special session.

"They're legends!"

Next, it's S8.

In the UR makeup photo of S8, Xu Ruoguang stood in the center and looked slightly to the right.

In S8's SKT makeup photo, Lee Sang-hyuk also stood in the center and subconsciously looked to the left.

Under the magic of the fist [referred to as PS], Xu Ruoguang, who was wearing a UR team uniform, and Lee Sang-hyuk, who was wearing an SKT team uniform, looked at each other quietly.

And beside their figures, countless pictures began to fly by.

A line of small print in the lower left corner: Courtesy of SKT, IP Club photographer.

There were two people laughing in the training room.

There is a screen that is the only one lit up in the darkness in the middle of the night.

There is a lounge, after Xu Ruoguang fell asleep, Lee Sang-hyuk picked up the air conditioner and captured it with remote control.

Of course, more of it is the youth of two people who look at each other and smile on the field.

A line of words, and the scroll began.

Canyon, who had already been immersed in it, subconsciously read it.

"Since Emporer's debut in 2015, we've played 240 games with faker, including nine playoff BO5 games, three league finals, and two World Finals finals."

Seeing this, Canyon's mouth was already wide open.

This data is really exaggerated.

If he remembers correctly, faker and Brother Guang have only been partners for a year and a half.

S5 Summer, S7 in the year of LPL.

That's all.

However, in just one and a half years, the two men played three league finals and two World Finals finals.

What is a golden partner?

This pedal horse is the real golden partner!

However, Canyon's originally open mouth couldn't help it anymore after seeing the winning rate, and he gasped.

If he knew Chinese, maybe he would have to say this terrible.

"The overall win rate, the total win rate is ...... 98.75%？！ ”

"Damn, you were so ruthless?"

Uzi can't hold back, this kind of winning rate is really outrageous!

Co-authored the two of you to put aside this S game to do power training?

Pick up the S championship list, right?

"I don't know, I don't have any impression, anyway, I didn't seem to lose when I was IP."

Xu Ruoguang rubbed his chin and added.

"I haven't even lost a small game."

Uzi is numb.

When he was at the peak of RNG, it was impossible for him to make such exaggerated statistics.

At most, 70 wins is already an exaggeration.

When these two are together, the win rate is 98.75 of Goba............

On the screen, the words are still scrolling,

“Emporer，age19。”

“Faker，age22。”

"Emporer, S5, S6, S7 World Finals Champion."

"Daker, S3, S5, S7 World Finals Champion."

"They're still young."

"The legend continues."

The dynamic music suddenly freezes, and what appears at this time is the ID with SKT.Faker.

"A new showdown is about to begin!"

"In the semi-finals of the 2018 World Finals, SKT captain Faker and UR captain Xu Ruoguang met again."

"Please, look forward to it."

As the picture completely dimmed, Xu Xiu rubbed his arms and couldn't help but sigh.

"Wow, really, goosebumps."

"That's right, right, I saw this video when I came together in the morning, Xiba, it's so good, I can't help it, I can't help but want to tell Brother Guang after I get up."

Beryl smiled.

He got up early today.

It's not for other reasons, it's because the phone was confiscated by Redmi.

It's all semi-finals, and you still want to play mobile games?

Redmi: It doesn't make sense!

He couldn't wait to get his phone back in the morning, but he didn't know that when he opened Twitter, he would directly open the lightning strike.

This video is so well done, Beryl is enthusiastic to watch.

"General."

Xu Ruoguang lifted his pants, looked calm, and stood up.

"Training went."

Leave your teammates looking at each other.

"Brother Guang didn't react? I'm a little disappointed. ”

Beryl smacked her lips.

"No, when Photon is really excited, he secretly enjoys it by himself."

Uzi had played with Xu Ruoguang in OMG for a period of time before, and he still knew Xu Ruoguang's character better.

In fact, Xu Ruoguang at this time was really stealing fun.

He sent a link to the people he knew, followed by another message:

Is brother handsome or not?

Lee Sang-hyuk is almost in seconds.

Cauliflower: I laughed, that's it?

Tranquility and Distance: ???

Cauliflower: I don't feel as handsome as I am.

Tranquility Zhiyuan: You say that you are a horse, can you compare with me?

Cauliflower: Haha, in a hurry?

In the SKT lounge, faker typed with a serious face.

Bang glanced at it and couldn't help but feel a little admiration.

"I'm probably checking the version changes again, Brother Xianghe, I'm really trying."

If faker's haha is anxious and is understood by bang, it is estimated that faker's glorious image in bang's heart will be completely shattered [sad]

Xu Ruoguang's hateful teeth itched, this hanged person had already reached the thirteenth level before the bar, and all kinds of black words came as soon as he opened his mouth.

Yin and yang weird no.

For faker,Since S7,Waiting time to watch the bar has become a habit.,He's never been in contact with this before.,It's natural to be addicted.。

He doesn't have any other hobbies, and this thing can still pass the time for him to integrate into the IP at that time.

Just one sentence: the Internet is so exciting and spicy!

Over time, it becomes a habit.

Even because he was often despised for yellow cards, faker, who was once a small blue card, had a desire to win, and he even made a note when studying how to stick to water.

Always ask questions that are very offensive but very subtle.

For example: "Is it only I think RNG has never been strong?" ”

"No one really thinks that there are very few offal, right?"

"Pure passerby, how do you evaluate Emporer's performance today? My assessment is a defense. ”

"Don't pretend to be spicy, I'm Lee Sang-hyuk! Do you want to ask me for a quick return! ”

In the face of such obvious fishing, the bar owner is naturally often blocked, but because faker can play PS, he can still live from time to time, so he hasn't been followed.

Now it's also a famous bar pet.

Especially faker's post at the end that I don't pretend to be spicy I am Lee Sang-hyuk really aroused the interest of many people.

It's a pity that the maggot baby doesn't believe it at all.

"Are you Lee Sang-hyuk? No problem. Then I said I'm your father, okay? ”

"You're your mother, can you work with the baby?"

"How much has Lee Sang-hyuk made in Goba, how can he play with the anti-stress of the sewer rats? You are really Lee Sang-hyuk's words suggest V50, Crazy Thursday is here, rich brother look at the strength, V I will admit it. ”

Don't say it, faker is really v.

The baby maggot on the opposite side sent a question mark and then retreated.

Here comes a sentence: Are you really?

After a painstaking persuasion, the core idea is as follows:

Stop fantasizing about spicy!

It's okay to lie to buddies, don't lie to yourself!

Then I deleted the friend.

At that time, faker never thought that he would have a day when he would be deleted from his friends.

Xu Ruoguang thought about it for a long time, and finally thought of a way to fight back.

It's a bit mean, but I'm sorry, Sang-hyuk, I'm going to win!

The strange desire to win has already set in.

He sneered and sent a sentence and began to nest.

Tranquility Zhiyuan: Do you think I'm not as handsome as you?

Cauliflower: [Sweaty soybeans] smiled, why are you?

Xu Ruoguang smiled.

The fish has taken the bait.

The head ~ is going to be in hand!

Tranquility Zhiyuan: But Enjing seems to think I'm more handsome.

Suddenly, in the SKT lounge, someone heated up rapidly.

Warn! Warn!

Cauliflower: That's fine.

Lee Sang-hyuk put down his phone and looked at Bang, who was training seriously in front of him, and suddenly it was not pleasing to the eye.

"Jun-sik, training is almost over, right?"

"Huh? Ah, almost. ”

Bang was stunned and replied with a smile.

"Did you go into the training room with your left foot or with your right foot today?"

Lee Sang-hyuk asked.

bang：？？？

He thought for a moment and said cautiously.

"Left, left foot?"

"Oh, the coach said, there will be rules and regulations in the future, and you are not allowed to use your left foot first, and when the training is over, you can go to the corner and squat for a while to reflect."

Lee Sang-hyuk said lightly.

bang：……

"Okay, okay."

Why hadn't he heard of this rule?

But Brother Sanghyuk looks so angry now, he doesn't dare to say or ask.

As a result, only Bang Hurt World was reached.

And on the Internet, this documentary is even more praised.

Whether it's LCK or LPL, the argument is unexpectedly consistent.

Pretty!

On the LCK side, countless SKT old fans have tears in their eyes.

That summer was short, so short that there was only that winning night in a summer.

That summer, it was very long.

It has grown so long that many fans have not forgotten it until now.

"The former SKT, the strongest SKT in my memory, there is no one, it is really too strong, even if S4 won the championship Samsung White, there is no such dominance."

"Although I'm a star miscellaneous, what you said is still ~ really no problem."

"At that time, I felt that if I took out the demon queen in the middle and the sword queen in the upper lane, the game had already been won, and the opposite base had already exploded."

"It's so fierce, I can't forget it!"

"Woo woo, as a female fan of SKT, I really want to see Ruoguang and Sanghyuk work together again!"

"Yes, yes, I also want to, young lady, are you also a fan of SKT, is it convenient to add an ins to recall SKT together?"

"Okay, okay, hee-hee."

It can only be said that no matter which division, there are some smart brothers who are doing bad things.

And on the LPL side, the scene is even more spectacular.

Let's start with a question.

Are there many IG fans now?

Actually, it's a lot.

After all, the champion of the spring and summer championships, the No. 1 seed in the LPL.

But if you want to say that you dominate the world, it is still too exaggerated.

After MSI lost, the number of IG followers continued to rise and fall.

Although IG is the No. 1 seed, even if they play better in the group stage, they managed to break through to the quarterfinals.

They still don't have as many fans as the old emperor and the old pigs.

This is S8, and the combat effectiveness of pig offal is still very fierce.

Unlike the little knights after S11, there is no use for fart.

won the championship and was pressed and beaten by water ghosts and zombies, and there was no dominance at all.

In this period, the pig offal can play five royal offal, relying on the skin and the skewer.

And whether it is Zhu Zai Huangza or IG's fan dog son, in fact, a large part of it is Xu Ruoguang's die-hard fans.

With the revelation of the inside story of S7 Xu Ruoguang's trip to the LCK, Xu Ruoguang was able to completely avenge his grievances, so the spearhead was targeted at Tengjing.

In addition, the RNG of the World Championship was sent away by G2, and BLG was sent away by UR, and for a while, Koreanophobia began to spread again.

On the other hand, IG is not important to them at all.

After all, it's not a middle-class Korean dad?

Instead of supporting IG's middle and upper Korean dad, it is better to support UR's upper and lower CN boosting!

40% Chinese content?

Wrong!

ROG staff, basically all of them!

The content is going to explode.

Do you understand, dogs are rare, almost enough!

UR never give up！

The R here is the R of UR!

RNG？

Fuck off, it's really unfamiliar.

So naturally, they began to incarnate UR ten-year-old fans.

There are countless people who call themselves Xu Ruoguang's iron fans.

Like what:

"I've been watching Brother Guang's games since elementary school, I like him so much, Brother Guang S8 continue to work hard!"

This is either a junior high school student or a fool.

"What a handsome brother Guang, but I think I'm more handsome than Lee Sang-hyuk, why don't you think about me?"

It's gay.

"Ahh

It's a fanatic.

"UR won the championship, can RNG take a third of the credit? After all, when the group qualifies, if RNG does not lose water, UR will not be so easy to qualify. ”

This is an iron skewer, eighty percent offal.

"Brother Guang Niu Pi! This is the first person to row up! ”

This may be normal.

"Dad, come back!"

This is too rebellious, eighty percent of it is a royal miscellaneous.

Time, in various discussions, passed slowly.

However, the audience was discussing, and Xu Ruoguang's training with his teammates never stopped for a moment.

Whether it is KT that has been eliminated, Samsung who did not come, or EDG and BLG, they all happily agreed to UR's invitation to the training match.

Two BO5 games a day, one at noon and one at night, very fulfilling,

What, you say in the morning?

Professional players generally do not have a morning in their schedule, because they often stay up late at night until two or three o'clock, and even some rolls play until three or four o'clock, and it is impossible to get up in the morning.

What's more, now in the World Championship, if you can withstand it, you must withstand it.

There are really few people who dare to go out and throw the moon in the World Championship.

There's no one who doesn't aspire to that title.

Even if he doesn't aspire to it now, he will probably regret the choices he made countless times in his later career.

There are no players who have won the championship, but there are two players.

As a UR opponent, SKT is also playing a training match.

UR doesn't want to lose, so why should they?

The semi-finals are all over!

The understanding of the version continues to deepen, the team's cooperation continues to improve, the more this time, the more it depends on who can withstand the pressure and hold the mentality.

And in the end, that day came.

October 27th was a very sunny day.

The sun is warm and the autumn breeze is refreshing.

Xu Ruoguang likes this kind of weather very much.

He hates cloudy days, but he loves light rainy days.

got up from the bed, kicked Xu Xiu, who was sleeping like a pig, as usual, and got dressed by himself.

“…… Brother Guang? ”

The sleepy-eyed Xu Xiu shouted in a daze.

"Get up, win SKT, get to the final."

Xu Ruoguang said this and teased Xu Xiu.

"Recast the glory of the LCK!"

This is what Xu Xiu is saying every day, and Xu Ruoguang remembers it very clearly.

Xu Xiu rubbed his face vigorously and got up.

"Good!"

After washing, gather and get on the bus.

The venue for the semi-finals is not far away, but it is better to take a bus for safety.

Looking at the crowd of people outside the venue, Xu Ruoguang was not afraid at all, but smiled.

"Faker, you should be tired after fighting for so long, right?"

"Wait for me, take you home."
