"Hello, Dalian, welcome all summoners and friends to gather together and watch the 2018 Intercontinental Asian Confrontation Match."

"Hello everyone, I'm the host Ren Dong!"

"This July, in the beautiful coastal city of Dalian, 12 teams from three regions gathered together to welcome team representatives."

"First of all, SKT who is playing for the LCK!"

"Welcome Faker!"

With the opening of the host's immortal grip Ren Dong, Feike's figure slowly appeared.

"Next, please invite the LMS ......"

……

"Next, please invite the RNG team that will represent the LPL region, please UZI!"

When the familiar name was heard, the scene immediately erupted in loud cheers.

"Please represent the EDG team in the LPL region, please Clearlove7!"

The appearance of the prestigious pig and dog on the same stage is a tearful thing for fans.

Especially in the summer competition, the factory manager did not play once.

Although his fans delude themselves that the director is a secret weapon.

But if you look at the number of appearances he has, you can see that there is such a secret weapon?

RNG's spicy pot also has very few appearances, but when he appears, he always has the ability to turn the tide, which is the real secret weapon.

And the director ...... Even if you don't want to admit it, it's inevitable that the hero will be in his twilight.

For esports players, he is already very old and does not have an advantage compared to young players.

For fans, they know very well that the director's game is to watch one less game, so they all cherish it extraordinarily.

It's just that the factory director rarely opens live broadcasts, and it is basically difficult to see him except for playing games.

He didn't play in the summer, and after the finals in the spring, I hadn't seen him for a long time.

It is of course a very happy thing to see him appear at this time.

"Next is the IG team that represents the LPL region, and their representative is the owner of last year's FMVP in the World Finals, simple!"

Twelve representatives of the twelve teams gathered.

KZ, SKT, KT, AFS for LCK.

RNG, IG, EDG, RW for LPL.

LMS FW, M17, MAD, GRX.

After the twelve teams were introduced, the next step was for all the players to appear.

It's just that when the LMS players appeared, there were few voices from the audience.

I was really disgusted last year.

LPL won the championship, but the audience was almost gone, there was no respect at all, and it was a shame to be thrown to a foreign country.

Player reviews on the Internet are like two countries.

The opening ceremony of the continental competition was played by RNG against FW.

That is, Casa's old club.

Before the start of the game, everyone thought that RNG could easily win this game.

After all, this year, RNG's strength has been very terrifying.

They had just won the MSI championship again, and everyone naturally thought they could win.

This is not the confidence of the domestic audience, but everyone at home and abroad thinks so.

This RNG here banned Svein, Knife Girl, Pig Girl, Morgana, and Noshou!

Chose Blue Steel Shadow, Galio, Tam, Kaisha, and Mondo!

And FWban dropped Lowe, Zoe, Rock Sparrow, Ash, EZ!

Vampire, Scorpion, Pike, Iron Man, Captain are chosen!

(The version is updated, the World Championship can be used, and the domestic league version is generally later than next door.) ）

RNG opted for a traditional lineup that favored AD output, while FW opted for a lineup that favored a mid-term rhythm with the dragon.

Looking at the choices of both sides, at the beginning, a group of LPL players felt that RNG could easily end the game.

After all, UZI's Kai'Sa has been released.

At the beginning of the game, RNG chose a line-up to change lanes, but the opponent was obviously on guard, and the three of them took the lead in pushing off the bottom tower.

In the middle term, FW took advantage of its own lineup and kept rolling snowballs to accumulate the advantages of the dragons.

Although Qinggang Shadow has found opportunities to start a group many times to target the other party's captain, it has little effect.

With the passage of time, in head-to-head team battles, FW's lineup is significantly more dominant.

After annihilating multiple people, FW ended the game in a wave.

FW, which managed to win the first race of the continental competition.

After the game, the audience at the scene and online was dumbfounded.

No one thought RNG would lose.

The expectations were too high at the beginning, and the results turned out to be even more unacceptable.

At this time, the expression on the LCK's side is also very subtle.

In the beginning, they naturally regarded RNG as their fierce rival.

After all, RNG defeated them strongly last year and won the finals.

When I was in MSI, I stepped on them and won the championship.

But I didn't expect to lose to FW in the opening game.

I didn't have time to think about it, and the people from IG went straight to the field.

In this match, they faced off against the M17.

M17ban dropped Draven, Ash, Zoe, Jace, and Enchantress!

I chose Pig Girl, Svein, Bull Head, Ice Bird, and Nuo Hand!

IG banned Qinggang Shadow, Nightmare, Rock Sparrow, Yasuo, and Knife Girl!

Chose Sword Demon, Barrel, Ryze, Lucian Ganami.

IG opted for a traditional lineup of shooters, while M17 opted for a lineup that leaned towards hand-to-hand combat.

At the beginning of the game, the new version of the sword demon completely suppressed the no-hand on the road, and after the barrel helped GANK once, the sword demon completely took off, and after the sword demon of Brother Tan got up, it was completely unreasonable.

Although in the middle of the game, there was a small group in the river, and IG killed two people and fell into a disadvantage, but the sword demon took out a blood tower on the road.

In the middle of the game, Ruiz circled and cooperated with his teammates to kill the other two and take down the dragon.

In the face of a huge equipment gap, IG easily defeated the opponent and won the game.

IG, managed to win the game.

Brother Sun, who recovered from his injury and returned to the arena again, is still very terrifying.

Especially the sword demon that has just been revised, in his hands, it is simply tailor-made.

Brother Tan came back, and he simply paddled and mixed it up.

Not to mention, it's a very good feeling.

The combination of Nami and Lucian directly blew up the opposite side of the road, which is very unreasonable.

The gap in individual hard power is so huge that the other party has no way to resist at all.

And in the end, the sword demon who descended from the gods to the earth and successfully won the MVP.

Simplicity didn't take down the Pike he had in mind.

He knew very well that if he took it out at this time, then he would not have a chance to get it later.

Naturally, this was not what he wanted to see.

Then EDG easily won AFS, and junior brother Zoe took off.

And the chivalrous team RW met KT and failed miserably.

LPL, which is faintly known as the first division, actually won a two-bar two on the first day of the game, which is naturally unacceptable to many people.

The failure of the Heroes team was expected by them, but the failure of RNG was really unacceptable.

On that day, there was a lot of rhythm.

The LCK, which got a three-bar record on the first day, had the last laugh.

It's just that the next day, the four teams of the LPL directly exploded and won four consecutive victories.

With a six-bar record, he directly entered the finals.

Yes, after two days of knockouts, the LPL side directly advanced to the finals with the first place.

The other two divisions will play the semi-finals on the third day, that is, tomorrow, July 7, with one BO5 to decide the other list of the finals.

It is mentioned here that in the continental competition, the semi-finals and the finals, each team has to play, and only when the fifth team is in the fifth place, can the team be assigned at will.

On July 7, the LPL side rested directly.

Some went to watch the game. Some people also walked around Dalian.

Of course, there are also those who stay in the hotel to continue training.

Now that it's a holiday, it's easy to go out and relax.

He's been training and competing since May, and he doesn't really have a lot of time to relax.

Auntie, as a row of noodles, is obviously very busy, and she has no time to accompany Simple.

But simply and directly asked Sister Zhou and turned her into a dumb bride, and she couldn't say a word.

All that's left is the rolling of the eyes.

I have long known the simplicity of the result, so I naturally don't care about this day's competition.

The difference in strength between the two sides is too great.

In the end, LCK won the LMS 3-0 directly and neatly and advanced to the finals.

The difference in strength between the two sides is too big, and it is over without letting all four teams in the LCK play.

This result is not surprising.

In the intercontinental competition itself, LMS is actually just to accompany the prince to study, and the real main force is the other two.

It's a strange thing if the LCK is overturned.

As a coastal city, you can simply eat a lot of seafood and abalone here.

The abalone was delicious.

Plump, juicy, and wonderful.

Sister Zhou accompanied Simple to eat seafood together, and finally ate it, she had no choice, she didn't want to waste it, in line with the idea that the fat water would not flow into the fields of outsiders, she directly called for support and called her good sisters over.

It doesn't matter how simple it is.

Who to eat with or not to eat?

Just don't waste it.

After eating the seafood, he returned to the hotel satisfied.

It can only be said that the seafood here in Dalian is really good.

After the attribute is solidified, his appetite is very large, and it is commendable that he can eat enough at one time.

When they got back to the hotel, there were no training matches, so they basically trained on their own, or played in qualifying to keep their hands.

Simply playing the ranking to twelve o'clock, there was a wave of consecutive wins, and there was not much feeling.

Since his attributes have improved, coupled with the guidance of the dotted line, he has been like a ghost in the ranks.

As long as he doesn't meet a particularly outrageous teammate, or if there is an actor playing him, then it's basically difficult to lose.

He is not stupid in the ranking, and of course he will not be supported by the upper points.

When you are at a disadvantage, the assistance is too helpless, and the initiative is not in your own hands at all.

Simple, I want to take everything into my own hands.

So Nakano is the easiest to win.

Now there is a phrase.

You can't win when it's simple, how many dishes do you have?

Basically, as long as it is not too stretched, the teammates are normal, even if there is a strength gap between the two sides, there is a simple one, and you basically can't lose.

At this time, the simplicity is to really control the thunder and lightning in the King's Bureau.

It doesn't matter if it's a national costume or a hanbok.

These days, the canyon has been turbulent.

With the start of the continental competition, these professional players from other divisions entered the canyon, and there was naturally a group of masters in the high-end game.

But these people are just as sanctioned when they encounter it.

is as strong as Feike, and when it comes to the duel in the middle, it is also simply suppressed.

Simple to the line is not an opponent.

But he came back from a walk, and came back with a few head assists.

Or drill into the wild area, catch the jungler to death, and face each other, Feike will find that he can't beat this person.

It's so magical.

In order to enhance the efficiency of obtaining points, it is basically simple to hit one number to the top 100 of the king, and then change the number and continue to play.

After the ranking is high, it is not good to rank people, so it is better to change the number and start from the diamond again.

So many people find that the current kings are very bad, and the previous kings have been squeezed down.

In fact, they were all simple trumpets up, and then they were pushed down.

After the strength is improved, the game can be quickly ended, so that the efficiency of simply taking points is slightly increased.

But that's about it.

People's energy is limited, after all, simplicity can only control one number, he is energetic, the time to play every day can be extended, and the efficiency can be increased, but other than that, there is nothing else.

It's just a very ordinary day, everyone goes about their own business, and then rests according to their biological clock.

The simple biological clock is not quite the same as the others in IG.

Everyone else basically doesn't finish the game until two or three o'clock, or train, and then play the game for a while, maybe four or five o'clock.

I will get up in the afternoon.

The simple thing is that you basically start resting around 12 o'clock.

However, although the schedule is different, it does not affect anything.

Training matches are usually played in the afternoon to the evening during prime time.

I didn't say that I was still playing training at eleven or twelve o'clock.

When you're not playing training matches, you're basically playing on your own.

Therefore, the simple routine is different from theirs, and it does not affect anything.

Every day, when they are still asleep, they have already gotten up for morning exercises, washed up and carried out basic training, and then played ranking.

The schedule is full.

It's not like everyone else, who basically spends the day sitting in front of a computer.

Even when it was an intercontinental race, it was simple and did not change this habit of itself.

On April 8, he was up at five o'clock in the morning.

There is no club gym, and all kinds of fitness equipment, just get up and go for a run, then go back to the hotel, take a shower, and turn on the computer for basic training.

Even if there is a solidification of attributes, he still conducts various trainings every day to maintain his hand and muscle memory.

It's just that when it's simple and strange, obviously when he is doing various trainings, because of the solidification of his attributes, he can feel that he has become stronger.

It stands to reason that I obviously feel that I have become stronger, and my attributes should be improved.

But there is never any improvement in attributes, only with points.

Simple don't know how this works.

Guess that only after you reach sixty in all your attributes can you understand this.

It's just that he has a little scruples.

I'm worried about what will happen after I reach sixty.

He is performing so well now, and to a large extent, he still relies mainly on the dotted line, so he can only put it aside for the time being.

Since you can feel the improvement of strength, it is not so important whether the attribute improvement is not improved or not.

That's why he's been doing basic training all the time.

It's not useless, it's a real improvement.

Hectic and busy, time passes quickly.

Simple has eaten and drunk enough, and used the trumpet to win five in a row, and then Ah Shui and they played Hache.

"Do you have anything to eat? Starving! ”

Ah Shui, whose eyes were confused, saw that a simple person was in the queue and came to him.

"It's so forced, as soon as you hit the ranks, it's the same as anything."

"Daddy isn't fierce in the game? When did I not C you? ”

Simply don't look back, focus on the operation.

"Comfortable!"

On the screen, the end of Enoch's five kills ended.

The guillotine's five-in-a-row slash is the same as Pike's five-in-a-row, which is very comfortable.

After five kills, he quickly bulldozed the opponent's base, and saw Ah Shui eating it with a bag of snacks.

"Snack on an empty stomach, and you're not afraid of getting stomach problems."

Simply rolled his eyes.

"Bring it to you, Dad is all for your good!"

As he spoke, he snatched the snack directly from Ah Shui's hand and ate it himself unceremoniously.

"You guy, you're not afraid, what am I afraid of."

Ah Shui doesn't matter.

"Heh, you little rookie, what do you compare to your father? Dad's abs are enough for you to practice for a few years! ”

Simply came a king's contempt.

"You ......"

I took the bag of snacks again, just tore it open, and when I heard the words, Ah Shui suddenly felt that it was not fragrant.

This figure is simple, it's really not something he can compare.

"Also, I eat snacks, that's when I eat, how is it like you're on an empty stomach?"

"What can I do without snacks to pad my stomach?"

Ah Shui was helpless.

"You think everyone is like you!"

Speaking of this, Ah Shui is envious.

In order to maintain their reflexes, they didn't dare to eat at all, or they didn't dare to be too late, so they took some snacks, chocolates and the like to pad their stomachs.

I didn't dare to eat until the game was over.

And simplicity does not have this problem at all, it should be eaten, and it has not been affected at all.

I think that at the beginning, the five people of WE were hungry all day and played for ten hours.

There was an eight-hour pause in between.

For pros, reaction is very important.

So even if they are hungry, they have to keep their reactions as sensitive as possible.

After Ah Shui got up, one after another, others also got up.

Pack up, eat some bread, snacks or something to pad your stomach, even if you eat a meal.

Take a break, turn on the computer, train, and feel warm, and basically need to leave for the venue.

For their choice, I simply disagree, but there is no way.

In order to achieve results, sometimes some sacrifices cannot be avoided.

Just like training, sitting in front of the computer for more than ten hours a day is prone to occupational diseases after a long time.

Like a puppy's hand wound, it is boiled out of life.

But if you want to chase your dreams on this path, then it is inevitable.

Simplicity certainly can't say anything about this.

Esports, strength speaks.

Others only see their glamour on stage, but they can't see the hard work and sweat behind them.

This is true in any industry.

If you want to be noble before others, you must suffer later.

Where do you do nothing and reap flowers and applause?
