Jiangcheng Gymnasium.

The League of Legends 2017 World Championship group stage is in full swing.

On the field, the five members of the EDG team looked serious.

Day 1, after 54 minutes of fierce battle, they lost to the AHQ team, and the division was unfavorable!

Day2, the advantages created in the early stage were overturned little by little under the operation of SKT and lost again!

Day3, EDG is in a stalemate with C9!

But it seems that the situation is not good~

Abu's face was gloomy.

C9's Kaminakano linked, and Scout's Lucian was strangled in the middle.

EDG's idea of establishing an advantage in the early stage was completely shattered.

On the other side, Qi Zhou, a substitute who is also a member of the EDG team, is heartlessly paddling his mobile phone.

Don't pay any attention to the game!

Qi Zhou is browsing [Desert Death].

Hot post: "Desert Grim Reaper Newcomer Must Learn Subjects - Smell Experience"

The post I wrote casually turned out to be a hot post!

Qi Zhou clicked on the red dot of 99+ on the small bell in the upper right corner.

It's all messages from new bar friends:

Ran Zhou: "Have you all quit rushing?" It's all bearable! ”

4396: "This garbage hero can't beat his brother (crocodile)" ......"

Hongwen Lanbo: "The maggot silver dog head and sister lost, he is a shame for you, right?" ”

Short-legged corgi: "New friend, the dog's head bar is the internal name, and it must be called [Desert Death] or [Oasis Living Buddha] outside!! ”

Quiet: "Pure passerby, this is anti-pressure, right, what kind of thing is next door?" ”

One Q one: "Today's start Q is a look, I feel like I'm invincible~"

Steady: "What an optimistic kobold, come to learn!" ”

……

There were a lot of messages, but Qi Zhou didn't reply.

only quietly gave a thumbs up to the user [Red Warm Blue Wave].

The EDG team's style of play is to open up the situation around the middle and bottom, and the upper lane usually chooses tank-type heroes, usually big trees.

Therefore, there is a saying in the circle called "EDG recruits orders, and it will be a big tree".

Qi Zhou, as a substitute, has naturally heard of this stalk.

Therefore, from the moment he joined the EDG team, Qi Zhou lurked in the headquarters of the anti-pressure bar, the Desert Reaper.

Now, two and a half years later!

Learn and smell experience with an open mind, and strive to pull out the mountains and cover the world!

For two and a half years, Qi Zhou spent most of his time silently by the water dispenser.

Graduated from college at the age of 21, Qi Zhou is close to 24 years old this year.

24 years old is as far away as 18 years old and 30 years old, without the courage and fearlessness of 18 years old, nor is it tainted with the calm pessimism of 30 years old.

After fading away from the youthfulness of fighting the sword and walking the world, Qi Zhou became stable and mature.

For ordinary people, youth is the best age.

But for esports players, 24 years old is the twilight of their careers.

Hand speed and reflexes began to decline.

Everything became overwhelming.

When he first became a substitute, Qi Zhou could occasionally get a chance to play.

But after his 23rd birthday, Qi Zhou felt snubbed.

EDG coach Abu also has an 18-23-year-old shackle in his heart.

Every time Qi Zhou looked at him, he could read such a passage from it: "You are the remnants of the old era, and there is no ship that can carry you in the new century."

But there's no me in the funeral song!

Qi Zhou comforted himself in his heart.

Glancing at the calm sunny cheeks reflected by the screen-off phone, he looked at the big screen on the field.

For a period of time just now, the C9 team's Shen was single-belted on the side, and EDG's development space was completely contained.

The C9 expands its advantages from point to surface in all directions.

At this point, the EDG team wants to recoup their disadvantage by playing in a team.

"The economic difference is too big......"

Qi Zhou stared at the prince of Kreel's spicy dance and Meiko's Luo, and said silently: "Drive to Sindra or Xia, you can fight!" ”

However, being pressed by the C9 five people under the cramped middle lane two towers, the probability that this hope can be realized is too small.

Sure enough, even if C9 forcibly touched the tower.

The prince of Kreel's spicy dance and Meiko's Luo also had no way to drive to the double C of C9.

In the end, the second tower in the middle road collapsed under the gorgeous pink feathers.

"Teamfights are a bit hard to start...... Pushed to! It was opened from the other side! Nothing was done and was directly seconded, and the head of the prince of Krier's spicy dance was also taken down by E-flash......"

Miller, who was commenting, was also caught off guard.

In the picture, Syndra's E skill pushes the [Dark Orb] on the ground, stunning Mouse's big bug and Meiko's Lo.

In an instant, tons of output from the C9 side poured down on the two.

Big Bug and Luo were killed in seconds!

The prince of Kreel's spicy dance is splashed with damage and turns into residual blood.

In the end, it was accepted by Syndra Flash's E skill.

Even if Lucian and Verus on EDG's side are crazy to output, they can't change the situation of the big defeat.

C9 broke through the middle lane highland, and the three remnants of blood and the almost full state of the jungler man, AD Xia, went straight to the dragon.

Abu, who was standing in the background, was so tense that he almost collapsed.

The tide is over.

C9 takes the baron, and it is only a matter of time before EDG is defeated.

Continuing to insist on putting the critically ill on a ventilator can survive, but it will not save the patient's life.

Turning the tables is not hopeless.

But the premise is that EDG can hold the high ground in the next wave of attacks after C9 returns to the city.

Is it possible to hold on?

Abu looked at the Mouse on the side and asked himself. The most stable top laner in the team, his lips trembled slightly, and his legs couldn't stop shaking.

The momentum of the rest of the team before the start of the game was also replaced by depression.

BO1 Double Cycle Bad Format EDG has lost two in a row!

If this one loses again, it means that EDG loses the last bit of tolerance.

They must win back-to-back games against SKT, C9, and AHQ in the second round to advance to the quarterfinals and get a glimpse of the title.

As recognized as the "Imperial Three".

Although EDG is not the only hope for LPL to win the championship, it also shoulders the expectations of tens of millions of players, and stopping in the top 16 is by no means what they are willing to see, let alone their bottom line.

Abu looked to the north, and he longed to lead the team in a month to compete in the Bird's Nest.

"Let's congratulate C9 for not making any mistakes from the start to the end...... EDG has reached the point where there is no way back......"

Miller's voice rang out, and the red square crystal exploded.

EDG lost the game.

Abu and the five team members walked dejectedly, and Qi Zhou slowly stood up and followed behind the team.

He placed his long, warm palm on the left shoulder of Kreel's spicy dancer.

"A knight of faith...... We will overcome all difficulties. ”

The warm and clear voice reached the ears of Crier.

It has been three years since he helped WE win the first domestic LOL championship in the lPL5 World Finals and transferred to EDG in the same year.

The veteran Kreel Spicy Dance is also 24 years old.

Jiangcheng, where the group stage was held, is also the birthplace of the Kreel spicy dance.

Qi Zhou knows that he wants EDG to advance to the top 8 and win the championship more than everyone in the team and coach Abu.

Krier looked up and looked at Qi Zhou in surprise.

This transparent person who is about the same age as himself and has a team can't see any special expression on his face at this time, but his originally fluctuating heart has become extremely calm in an instant.

It was as if a voice was telling itself that EDG would be able to win consecutive games in the next three games!

"Come on!"

Qi Zhou's right hand clenched into a fist and collided with Kreel's left hand.

Look at each other and smile.

And ahead, a special force in the dark made coach Abu turn back.

He paid attention to Qi Zhou.

At this moment, Qi Zhou seems to be an aircraft carrier on the sea, giving him a kind of heavy security like Mount Tai.
