Regardless of the points simply from the joy of victory, the EDG players came to Snake's table in a playful manner, but IBOY looked out of place and fell behind a little.

At LSPL, he was the center of the world, and everyone seemed to revolve around him.

But why has this changed now?

Blame Jiang Zhun?

LOOKING AT THE MAN WALKING IN FRONT, IBOY'S HEART FLASHED MANY THOUGHTS.

The rotation seems to be the right he snatched from the starting zet, but in other words, he is a talented AD who can be sure of starting from the beginning.

No, I really can't blame the other party, from the dissatisfaction of the midlaner Scout to the disappointment of the jungler Mingkai, even the first sister who came to the club seems to be alienated from him.

Nexus is more of a man who always makes spontaneous changes for this team.

……

"Come on, don't be too resentful about taking the holiday in advance, it's not good to take the annual leave in advance when the time comes." Jiang Zhun patted Flando's shoulder, and after controlling his strength, he could be sure that the other party's bared teeth and grin had absolutely nothing to do with him.

Looking at Jiang Zhun with a bright smile, Flando pursed her lips, "Be careful of the semi-final overturn, wait for our revenge in the final." ”

The holiday brought by the first place in the regular season seems to have become the joy on the other side's face.

After all, no matter how hard you can endure hardship, you will still want to relax after training day after day, thinking of this Flandor suddenly feels that the man in front of her looks like a living human and not some Terminator robot.

"Hehe, hey, the finals, we won't give you tickets to the World Championship, and we will obediently go to the bubble match."

"Oh, why don't you consider coming and giving our prospective brother a substitute and giving you the whole Lucian skin?"

When it was Tian Ye's turn to shake hands, what stood out was a high emotional intelligence answer, which made Flandor angry.

What is called to enter the final, they will not be allowed to get a ticket to the World Championship.

The Snakes have RNG and WE in the half of the division, and you mean it's going to be an obstacle to our Summer Championship anymore, right?

The Curses overturned in the semi-finals!

EDG on the single substitute?

I, Li Xuanjun, just starved to death, died in front of the computer desk, jumped from here, no team wanted! I will never go to your EDG to place an order.

……

With the end of the game, the standings of the 2017 LPL Summer Regular Season are officially determined.

The playoffs are set to start on August 22nd, and because they are ranked first, EDG, like RNG in Group B, only need to wait for their opponents in the knockout round.

The top two teams in each group will be the big boss, while the other three will alternate in the knockout round.

In the EDG semi-division, the first round is SNG playing OMG with average form, and the winner will go to challenge IG with higher points, and the winner will be the opponent of EDG semi-finals after IG plays the winner of the first round.

The semi-finals didn't start until the 25th, and this half-month window was both a good thing and a bad thing for the team.

In order to win the game, the opponent in front of him is conducive to the coaching team and the jungler like Ming Kai to study the opponent, of course, the disadvantage is that if you don't play the main game for a long time, you may also be overturned by the opponent, and become the same as the KT next door to win a BO5 to enter the world competition, but it is a big injustice to lose the game.

Today's post-game interview is dominated by Ming Kai and his junior brother, although the official also wants to pull Nexus, the prince of the anti-bar with its own topicality, but because the MVP was awarded to scout in the first game, the clockwork in the third game was given to Ming Kai's jungler, and their fans would not agree to replace one of the two.

Jiang Zhun was happy to help his teammates bring the peripherals back to the lounge.

Closing the door of the room, the staff members of the team had already packed their luggage, and the young lady of the team leader took the initiative to take over the peripherals in Jiang Zhun's hand and put them into the respective backpacks of Ming Kai and the others.

Nofe stands directly in front of the round table.

The manager's smiling expression is easy to read satisfied.

He wasn't wrong.

It was the same with the guys who had esports dreams when I was at ROX, and the same was true of the Nexus.

The strength has become stronger, and the mentality has become tougher!

At the beginning, it seems that my own vision is not wrong at all from the current results.

Whether it is in terms of strength or focus on e-sports, there is no fault!

One or two games may not be obvious, but after a regular season, Nexus is no longer a lonely little substitute, but a top top laner who is well-known in the LPL and even LOL circles.

But in the last regular season, the nofe, who deliberately arranged his tactics, did not see a trace of dissatisfaction in the opponent.

He is still the same BOY who listened to the persuasion before, and he has not changed in the slightest.

As for the AD in the corner, who is still unaware of his shortcomings, and has been predetermined by a team, nofe no longer has much hope for him.

The incense burner version, as if it had just been arranged for their team's current lineup.

The coaching staff was able to listen to the communication of the players on the stage in the lounge, and Jiang Zhun's reaction and stable attitude in the face of the target undoubtedly reassured the coaching team.

Not a flash in the pan, nor a civil war expert, the upcoming Worlds proves that he can give more trust to the other side.

"Little Jiang, you have grown to the point where I hope!"

"But it's not enough, it's not enough to just be what other people want." Nofe's expression changed from relief to seriousness, "When listening to the advice of the outside world, you must find your own path, champions are always those who can do things that others can't do!" ”

"Coach, is that your suggestion?"

"You can think so!"

"I think I can!"

Jiang Zhun was not modest this time, but said very frankly.

The Mediterranean analyst standing behind Coach NOFE gave a thumbs up, while the young lady of the team leader looked at Jiang Zhun who said such a sentence with little stars in her eyes.

In terms of tactical system.

Throughout the regular season, nofe tuned EDG to the way he wanted, and even reviewed the system he was once best at while leaving room for energy.

When there are many ways to win a game, choosing the most suitable one is the one that all coaches dream of.

……

The schedule for the playoffs is a bit tight for the other teams, and the eight-in-six games will start immediately a little more than a week apart.

However, EDG did not start the preparation training in a hurry, and Abu, who was in charge of managing the team, gave the players a three-day vacation.

Yes, three days!

For esports players, especially teams with excellent results and little to no responsibility for selling tickets, their working hours will be much longer than expected.

Three days.

After the regular season, the players didn't know how to arrange it for a while in the face of this wonderful number.

However, for young people, it is good to have a holiday, and it is human nature not to want to work.

Ming Kai, who basically dedicated his best youth to e-sports, is ready to spend it with his little girlfriend, this time he took a plane to see each other abroad, although he was in a hurry, but it was also a compensation for the debt in his heart.

Scout was going to go home, and the club had prepared a round-trip ticket for him.

After all, for people who work hard away from home, going home is always a sacred thing.

Wealth does not return home, such as brocade clothes at night.

It's a sister, after participating in the Comic Con last time, the originally planned trip to Chengdu was once again on the agenda.

"To Rongcheng?"

"No, no, I don't want to come back and spend time in the proctology department."

A trip to Rongcheng will really hurt your butt in every sense.

Seeing that the invitation to Jiang Zhun was fruitless, the sister once again extended her claws to Zet.

"Zet, as a partner, you don't want to be out of the starting line-up due to your irregular support performance in the regular season, do you?"

Poor Hae Sung-min threw a look of help to Jiang Zhun.

Big Daddy Save the Nest!

"That's a good ......"

Jiang Zhun is a little envious of Meikou's carefreeness, unlike Meikou's family who supports his development, Jiang Zhun's predecessor is a simple career that he went out to work after graduating from junior high school and then entered.

There is no Voldemort drama where the elder brother drops out of school and sends the younger brother to study.

It's simply that the family is poor.

His parents died not long after he was born, and he was raised by his grandparents alone, but even the two elderly people only sent him to the age of thirteen and left one after another, and the living expenses for the next three years were made up by the people in the village and handed over to themselves.

For a person whose grades can only be said to be good and has not yet reached the point of getting a scholarship, going out to work after nine years of obligation has become the only option.

It can only be said that I am fortunate to have a good e-sports talent in this life, and I have not been reduced to the point where I combed my hair into an adult and went to the point of being young to match life.

My hometown is in the most remote mountainous area in the southwest F4, and it is not a distance that can be solved by plane, and I haven't made any results, and I haven't earned much money, and I have sent some back to the village in advance of last month's salary.

After thinking about it, Jiang Zhun decided to continue to be a left-behind child in his club.

As long as the club can take care of food and housing, there is no need to go anywhere else.

Before the playoffs, staying at the base to train with peace of mind and hitting both server accounts to the first is the king.

If the two and a half years in WE are not enough to suffer from the upper limit of talent, now that there is a chance to touch the peak, Jiang Zhun must do his best to play a good game and cherish what may be the only opportunity in this life!

……

On the night of the end of the regular season, Edjuma flew back from Kyoto non-stop.

The renovated canteen can be regarded as being able to make a delicious meal for the players to celebrate, Abu waved his hand, and there was enough drinks tonight except for not being able to drink.

Everyone in the LOL division sat together.

The Mediterranean brother was the first to pull Jiang Zhun to his side, and his face, who could drink, was a little drunk.

"Hiccup!"

"Xiao Jiang, Feike is the most determined person I have ever seen before, and now it's you!"

"In a word, our club has you this year, and you must break through the quarterfinals!"

"Yes, break through the quarterfinals."

The staff of the club chimed in, and several of the elderly people even brought tears to their eyes.

The quarterfinals have almost become a thorn in the hearts of their gang.

The atmosphere has come to this, as the bosses, Edzhu and Abu raised their wine glasses, and they don't know if they really have tears in their eyes or that their acting skills are on point.

"I'm a businessman, if I can make money and not make money, then it's, but I also really like e-sports, I won't mention it to you in the past, the dirtiness of the business circle has nothing to do with you, like Xiao Jiang, who is only dedicated to e-sports, just play the game well, in a word, the money will not be less of you."

He also took time to watch the club's games recently.

Status Explosion!

In the past, EDG was not without a winning streak, and last year's summer tournament even had a whole game of winning the championship, but at that time it was still hanging for the championship, because there was a fundamental gap with the Korean team, unlike this year, when all teams were improving, EDG, which was obviously changing blood, still stood at the top of the LPL.

It's not just that EDG will be dragged down when it falls into a disadvantage, but the confidence that it can overturn no matter how big the disadvantage is is completely accumulated in one game.

mentioned this Abu was also a little lucky, and he touched a glass of wine with Lao Chen, who was the first to move chopsticks next to him.

"Anyway, if you hadn't proposed to buy a single tree in order to cultivate IBOY, Nexus would probably have been sold to other families by WE."

"The top order that can hit the big tree is the top order that can hit the big tree." Lao Chen smiled, Abu's head was confused, "Earn blood, right?" ”

No one could have expected that a spring game would shine in EDG just because it did not collapse under the spicy incense pot, and the tree that was good for nothing but stability would shine in EDG.

Abu is indeed very glad that even if the treatment is mentioned once among the people present, Jiang Zhun's salary is still the lowest, but everyone understands that if there is no other party in this year's EDG, the results may not be bad, but there is definitely no transformation now.

The transformation of the self, the transformation of the teammates.

The boss said that the three-day holiday in addition to the first-class plane tickets for the rest of the reimbursement of travel expenses, do not go out will be discounted according to the average number of team members, the real money is much better than the kind of leader who has to speak two words at the dinner table.

The management had a drink, the team members clinked drinks, and in the cafeteria was a group of young people laughing and boldly imagining the future.

JUST IN THE LAUGHTER, IBOY ONLY FELT THAT THE JUICE IN HIS HAND WAS FULL OF BITTERNESS.

He doesn't know what he's doing wrong, and he's used to laying down the road to develop smoothly even though there is a change, so that Kami-Nakano Carry's system can't compete with Zet.

It's just that no one notices IBOY's mood changes in the noisy atmosphere.

"Lao Jiang, I don't dare to say that you are the best in the world if you don't win the world championship, but you deserve to be the world's No. 1 in terms of improvement speed." The sister buckle snatched Ming Kai's roast duck and hid behind Jiang Zhun and complimented.

"You're the assistant of your debut, that is, the peak of your debut, and then the assistant of the rotten, you are embarrassed to say!"

"Eat me Muay Thai warning!"

Ming Kai stretched out his chopsticks and took away the braised pork in the other party's bowl when his sister didn't react.

Hey—

This wave is called jungler easy gank assist!

Everyone was full of food and drink, and they didn't know who took the initiative to talk about the dream of winning the championship.

"Daddy, you have persevered to this day, if you win the championship skin, do you want to choose Evelyn?"

"Me?"

"Evelyn can, but I want to choose Pig Girl too."

"Hey, listen to my children to make a choice, adults and I want them all, S7S8 double crown is booked."

"What about you, Cassadine or Rock Sparrow?"

"W-how's Lucian?"

Everyone: "......"

Zet silently refilled the drink on the order, and asked softly: "Ginger pot, what do you want to do if you win the championship this year?" ”

Jiang Zhun subconsciously replied: "Rich? I might want to go back to studying. ”

As long as you can win the championship professionally, coupled with a good image, and the commercial value is full, there will be no shortage of financial resources.

For him, dropping out of school became his only regret.

Zet was surprised: "Study, ginger pot, you only plan to play for a year?" ”

"What year?"

The others turned their heads around.

Jiang Zhun smiled awkwardly: "I told Zet that if I don't play professionally in the future, I may go back to study, after all, it's a pity that I didn't go to high school in the first place." ”

"Scared me to death!" Sister Buckle patted the half-swallowed roast duck, "I thought you said that you didn't want to fight after S7." ”

"It's good to read."

Ming Kai nodded, they were the first e-sports people because they had to mix up in the e-sports circle, and Jiang Zhun was not unavoidable to return to campus after having the conditions to do so.

Reading is not the same as a university, it can improve a person's cognitive ability of the world, especially for many of them who have mastered a huge economy but do not have the corresponding ability to control it, and they need to improve themselves from the inside.

"No wonder you didn't refuse when the coach asked you to learn English!"

……

During the two-day holiday, Jiang Zhun also went to the Bund of the Demon Capital a few times, and after the wallet wailed, he returned to the base with a large bag of things.

Zet originally wanted to practice with Jiang Zhun for three days, but he was coerced by Scout and went back to South Korea together, of course, there was also a reason for his persuasion, and Zet didn't have the system as a backing.

You can't just ruin your body because of esports.

The next night, Jiang Zhun continued his rank scoring journey while starting a live broadcast.

Now that the World Championship is approaching, the king of Hanbok has continuously set off bursts of bloody rain, with official staring, there are many fewer actors, and of course, the difficulty of scoring is also rising sharply.

In the case of a bunch of professional brothers pouring into the Hanbok, the experience of the top players in the incense burner version is actually not good, and sometimes there is a huge advantage on the road, and in the team battle, it is because the incense burner monster or AD is the first to die, so that the team battle is lost.

At this moment, Jiang someone misses his zet very much, and today's version of AD is the lower limit of a team, and it's only so bad to rank the kind of ADrank that likes to die violently.

In addition, Jiang Zhun's own ID is gradually becoming well-known in the hanbok, and every time a bunch of bad people who like to beat up slave players come to buy villas on the road, the rank score of the hanbok has only climbed up slightly by two in a few days.

On the contrary, it is the national server, which has won all the way to the third position, and is only more than 40 points away from the first.

It's August 22.

The 2017 LPL Summer Playoffs were held on time.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Suning played against OMG, and NB played against Team Snake.

First up was the continental tournament teammate OMG and the e-commerce Suning playoff battle bayonet.

In the first game between the two sides, Suning, as a low score, directly made a big move when he lost the right to choose sides, and directly adjusted the double AD system of Valoran Aegis to protect aircraft skateboarding shoes when the white crescent moon cerebral palsy released the spear of revenge.

Jungler to get a pig girl, and don't play any drift sniper play, the four of them rely on the invincibility of the gem to pull and play with you, and the green steel shadow of the wolf on the other side is crazy on the side, and the prince of the sunset in the first game was forced to play the first game with the coach to zero bar six.

But fortunately, in the second game, the white crescent moon did not honestly disable the BUG of the spear of revenge, and the old thief of Sima who barely recovered his state, played super god in the next road, and OMG won two games in a row.

And Suning is worthy of being the predecessor of my must-do team.

After the three games were played, and after losing the two games in the middle of the game, the big advantage in the fourth game was the turn of the lower road, and the confident second lock VN attracted cheers from the audience.

And with the big dragon BUFF, VN, a small short-handed plus a patient with difficulty in clearing soldiers, exposed all his shortcomings, and OMG drove straight into the highland soldier line and killed Suning in fifty minutes.

It's just that when the result of the three-to-1 victory over Suning appeared on the big screen, countless fans who like the dark forces knew that they would not see the old thief enter the World Championship again this year.

Playing a Suning OMG has to rely on a turnaround, how to play IG next?

In the second game, the NB and Snakes adhered to the principle of not letting the audience and commentators work overtime to have dinner, and clocked out 3-0.

Three games with three different ways to lose.

Even when Da Cleverness chose Wayne first, Crystal's hand injury was no longer enough to support him to take out Draven to face Conte again.

The last two rounds were played by Ohq, and the ending was naturally that a certain Jiang Zuo Wulang continued to be whipped by the players hanging on the pillar of shame.

Jiang Zuo Wulang, look at the thatched house three times, please come to the O Emperor!

O Emperor Shenwei is invincible, and the three-to-zero early holiday in the playoffs is not black.

……

After the eight-in-six fight, all EDG members started intense training.

Whether IG or OMG will be their opponents in the semi-finals, everyone knows by heart.

Even after seeing IG after changing the style of play, nofe didn't hold back his expression and scolded mafa, a bastard, for copying their EDG tactical system.

Upper middle field carry, lower road hold, this is not the best answer they EDG have been groping for a season, what is it?

Good guys, everyone is really a mafu e-sports player, and the average flag wood per capita is five or five.

From 9 o'clock in the evening, the training matches continued, and the objects of the training matches ranged from LCK to LCS and even the teams in the wild card area next door.

In the past, the teams of the five major regions looked down on wild cards and basically did not play training matches with them, but when the fans who beat Ming Kai appeared in the S6 arena and almost pulled out the tiger's teeth, the mentality of many teams changed.

Among them, Ming Kai continued to be quintessential after playing with the GAM specially selected by Jiang Zhun for him.

originally thought that the richest man in Vietnam could watch a wild king, but who would have thought that this year's GAM jungler would be equally outrageous.

Under the high-intensity training matches and the losses in the previous few games, the restless heart in everyone's hearts brought by the holiday has gradually stabilized.

There is no fluke in esports, a loss in a BO5 game is a loss, and no one will give you another chance.

In the semi-final list, AD did not exceed Jiang Zhun's expectations, zet, who faintly had the shadow of the AD version of Gongzige, successfully squeezed out the position of IBOY, and the rotation became zet's starter and IBOY's substitute.

Even because of IBOY's ugly performance on the first day of training, nofe bluntly told the other party that if the last chance of the playoffs does not improve, the substitute spot in the world championship will belong to mouse instead of him.

"Our opponent in the semi-finals is still IG unexpectedly!" Nofe held his notebook and emphasized that the opponent of the opposite training match at this time was the Dragon Ball team, which was very similar to the style of LCK and IG.

The appointment of the new LCK champion Dragon Ball also benefited from Jiang Zhun's personal relationship with LZ top laner Khan.

To be honest, when I learned that the LCK newcomer Wang Shangdan in Jiang Zhun's mouth also came out of WE, the expressions of the other people in EDG completely changed to the subway, the old man and the mobile phone.

Good guy, WE is really the Whampoa Military Academy of the unit.

Jiang Zhun doesn't know what to say, after all, this champion is always one step slower than me, and his team can't win the championship every year, but every time he can join a team that won the championship last season, Brother Han is a real old man in WE, and he played LSPL in WEA in 2014.

The training match with Dragon Ball is said to be holding a similar version of IG, but it is a bit of an elevation of today's incomplete version of IG, and Dragon Ball, which is not sick, can win the championship in lck, which is naturally full of strength of each line.

In the training matches played against them, EDG lost more and won less.

Even if Jiang Zhun didn't look at each other with the eyes of a loser, everyone took every game seriously, and many games still lost to Dragon Ball in terms of mid-tempo variations.

NOFE chalked the problem down to the lower road.

IBOY and zet have actually rotated over and over again, and the difference between the effects of the two is not very large, and even the loss is even more exaggerated when they are on IBOY.

The two elders, the two elders of the Gray and the Rat King, may have a hard time dealing with stains, but arranging the inexperienced zet and IBOY is really hand-in-hand to play the teaching bureau.

The lower lane zet's style of play, the rat king will also, and in terms of experience, it is more experienced.

In the on-the-road battle, although the training match could not trigger the foreign war BUFF and the weak mark, in fact, in terms of lane ability, Jiang Zhun could feel that the Khan at this stage was similar to himself, but in terms of calling the jungler, he was not as decisive as the opponent.

It's as if the other party has a congenital belief that the jungler should serve the top order.

It's good to play other divisions, although there are problems in the wild area of the big brother in Vietnam, but the other lines are all advantages, and even zet can ride on the opposite AD face output, and the other European and American teams have mixed wins and losses in the case of training tactics, and the coaching staff is very satisfied.

After all, in the past, EDG was stable and violent in the World Championship, and the quarterfinals were so solid that it seemed to be deliberate.

No one remembers the quarterfinals, unless he's a ...... every year

After more than a week of boring training matches, no one in EDG complained, and no one would take it lightly after KT made a negative teaching material for the World Championship tickets.

What wins a BO5 and enters the World Championship, how fragrant it is to honestly take the No. 1 seed!

When the six-in-four game started, Jiang Zhun and others also waited for the official LPL promotional video shooting arrangements for the semifinals.

(End of chapter)
