When Yu Wenbo, the fortune bucket, was tingling his scalp when he was ordered by Theshy's Lucian on the road, and even wanted to retch, the EDG team was happily having an offline dinner.

Hot pot is a delicacy that can never be avoided in Sichuan and Chongqing, but due to the cold weather these months, the EDG club arranges two to three meals a week.

No matter how good the food is, eating too much will not be as amazing as when they first met, so this time the dinner was led by the host Snake Club, and after arranging buses to send fans to the university town, Jiangbei, and Jiefangbei to clear the venues, more than a dozen members of the two teams took two buses to eat Shancheng firewood turkey.

Firewood turkey is a delicacy of Yunnan Province, but its preparation method is a combination of Sichuan cuisine and hot pot.

Jiang Zhun really wanted to give the Snake Club an arrangement and give it ninety-nine likes.

"Director, I'm your fan!"

"Eh, Brother Prospective, I'm also your fan!"

"K God, Xiangguo, Sister Control, Brother Holy Gun, I am also your fan!"

"I've been a fan of you for years!"

More than a dozen players from the two teams, along with their coaches, poured into the store, alarming the owner of Yamashiro Firewood Turkey.

The boss was only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and when he found out that the people who came to dine were EDG and Snake, his little red face, which was originally blown by the air conditioner, instantly smiled like an autumn pomegranate and almost cracked, and enthusiastically hugged him.

Everyone smiled back, and Snake Manager Zuo Wu spoke:

"Appointment at six o'clock this afternoon."

"Oh, I'll take you away."

The boss directly incarnates the waiter.

Jiang Criterion had a puzzled expression.

Before the crossing, a retired professional player told in the live broadcast room that he was once recognized by a burly passer-by when he was walking on the road, and that person claimed to be his fan and took a photo with him, but within a few days, the professional player saw that a user posted the group photo on the post bar.

and the accompanying text: "Offline single kill (the professional player's black name), (ditto) is so frightened that he cowers, afraid that his buddies will beat him, he can only force a smile." ”

Coincidentally, an anchor surnamed Park also encountered a similar thing.

According to this boss, then he is both a fan of the factory director and a fan of the incense pot, then he must be the audience before the first year of S7LPL e-sports.

And before the S7, the incense pot was still on RNG

Emm

The ingredients are a bit complicated and not easy to evaluate.

……

"We chose Guizhou Running Pheasant, which weighs five or six pounds and is more reasonable for five or six people to sit at a table."

Although Yamashiro Firewood Turkey is a restaurant, it is actually in the saddle where two hills are connected, and it covers a large area, similar to a manor.

The dining area is semi-open-air.

Because of the shelter built in the air outlets, the bonfire around the dining table, and the heating of the hotel's own boiler, even if it was already nine o'clock in the evening, everyone did not feel cold.

Zuo Wu and the factory director are ordering.

Others were chatting while rubbing their hands together and waiting for food.

Brother Crystal: "Old Jiang, how can you do it!" Li Xuanjun is only a 233-month-old child, and you are about to beat him up with both of them! ”

Saint Gun: "(_|||)"

Brother Crystal: "Hey, hey, it's the second time you played the captain with you, and you complained that you only fired 2 shots at Victor for 9 minutes, and you didn't steal anything, so you might as well bring [Unsealing Cheats]!" Don't deny Raiha! ”

The latter thought for a while and said, "Although I haven't triggered the theft omen a few times, it's better than you running the second tower to the line in the first three minutes, right!?" ”

Wen Yan,

Brother Crystal immediately became anxious: "The third level of the jungler on the opposite side is coming, and the son of the widow will not retreat to the second tower and wait for death?" In the second game, this broken lineup was chosen"

The thief head and thief looked back, making sure that Zhu Kai, the coach of the team who couldn't eat poultry and chickens under the pretext of hives, was not there, and then he said softly and carefully: "I thought the coach was impersonating!" ”

"How can you let you take VN to line Verus!"

VN has a short hand and is extremely weak in the early stage of line clearing.

Verus has a range of 575 yards, and QE is also a Poke-range ability, which makes Crystal very uncomfortable from the start of the game.

In addition, EDG had already designed a routine for the jungler to be caught by three groups of wild monsters, so Brother Crystal had to leave a tower when he had just reached level 2, and watched Sima Lao Thief and his sister control the speed line to send a large number of minions into the defense tower and burn them to death in vain.

"You just said that there are no two towers to match, right?" Brother Saint Gun smiled and showed his two big white teeth, looked at the angry little K, and then turned to Jiang Zhun and said:

"Brother Prospective, I feel that the new season version can dig a lot deeper, show me a direction? We played the German Cup with too much tactical exposure, and even FPX on our necks the other day, and I really don't want to wear a pain mask on the line anymore. ”

On the Internet, EDG and RNG are like enemies of life and death, and the fans of the two teams once scolded each other, and even RNG fans and WE fans joined forces to hold a pig killing conference.

When many professional players broadcast live, as long as they reveal something slightly, it will arouse infinite associations among netizens.

But in reality, the relationship between pros and pros is actually quite simple.

Generally speaking, players who have known each other before or have played in the same team have basically a good relationship.

If you belong to two different teams and only have players who communicate on the field, the relationship between them is like two students in the same grade or major in school who don't know each other.

I know you, but I don't know what kind of person you are, a familiar stranger.

Brother Crystal has been playing for so many years, and although he has not been able to reach the level where the 'League Courtesan' Shi Senming can sit on almost every team base, he has more or less contact with other team players in private.

Not long ago, Li Xuanjun, who was tortured by EDG's morning workout sound on Lingshi Road, let alone others.

Although Jiang Zhun was a bit heavy in today's game, everyone's relationship was iron.

Therefore, this time the two teams had a dinner Zuo Wu deliberately let Brother Crystal and Brother Shenggun sit at the same table with Jiang Zhun, Sister Kong, and Spicy Xiangguo, hoping that several people would communicate with each other and promote each other, and discuss the version more.

Scout, Old Thief, Jiejie, Missing, and Gala sat at a table.

The factory director is with the management of the snake team such as Zuo Wu and the team members.

"If you want to dig deeper this season, you still have to start with a new version of runes."

As soon as Jiang Zhun spoke, the boss came over with a large plate of yellow-run kun meat.

Behind him, the hot girl waitress in the mountain city was holding a huge iron square plate, on which bowls were filled with various spices: peppercorns, ginger, onions, and chili peppers.

Yamashiro firewood turkey is freshly fried.

Several people got up, gave way to the service staff, and then stood and watched while continuing the topic.

Jiang Zhun: "Resolute, Dominant, Sorcery, Precision, Enlightenment, the new version of the rune system has five departments, and there are three cornerstone runes and a number of small runes under each department, the matching form is too diverse and complex, and League of Legends now has 139 heroes!" ”

"Heroes like Captain and Ezreal actually disappeared from the professional arena for a while before the rune system was updated."

"But now they have gone from being unwanted to being a non-essential existence because of the cornerstone rune of [Omen of Theft]!"

"To be honest, this is all [Theft Omen] compared to other cornerstone runes, some supermodels."

"So my suggestion is to start with relatively strong runes such as enlightenment and precision runes, and find heroes that match their cornerstone runes, and with the clever combination of runes and heroes, you can completely narrow or even erase the strength gap between the opposing players."

The holy spear and the crystal nodded one after another.

In every release, there will always be some supermodel stuff there.

Previously a hero, now a cornerstone rune.

It's a good idea to start with the supermodel's cornerstone rune and find the hero that fits it, and then bridge the gap between the weaker side of the team and the rest of the team.

While this may cause the underdog to choose a hero that doesn't fit in with the lineup, it can at least ensure that the team doesn't fall into a disadvantage in the laning phase.

This is really an excellent suggestion for the Snakes, who have been struggling with not having a first-class midlaner.

Of course, Jiang Zhun just opened a way for the two, and did not point out what other heroes and runes could produce a wonderful chemistry to generate a version of the answer.

After all, there is still competition between clans, and Snake and EDG belong to the same west.

If Snake wants to become stronger, he still has to rely on himself.

"Emm, in fact, you can pay more attention to the RNAK of other segments and the posts of various heroes."

On the side, the oil in the pot is already hot, and the chef pours in the ginger slices, running pheasant, and white wine in turn. The spicy and spicy smell spilled into Jiang Zhun's nose, and for the sake of this meal being a treat for Snake, Jiang Zhun made a few suggestions:

"In fact, many unpopular heroes find the cornerstone runes and then study a set of exclusive outfit plays, which can exert unexpected effects."

"On the field we have to cater to the mainstream, but we also have to have something of our own."

"There are so many runes and heroes, and every team has the potential to make a trump card between the Spring Festival holidays."

"You could have spent more time researching."

"For example, I used Victor in the second game, which is a hero who plays the captain after beating the captain, and if others want to choose the captain on Banpick in the future, they need to spend an extra lever on Victor."

"Anyway, it's a sure win."

Brother Crystal and Brother Saint Lance were deeply convinced of listening to Brother Persuade's advice.

They knew how Brother Tingquan in front of them had transformed step by step and evolved to his current strength.

It seems that the Spring Festival holiday is going to work overtime!

……

"The days are long, the mountains are far away, and the royal brother can enter this wine: I would rather love the soil in my hometown, and I don't love ten thousand taels of gold in my hometown."

Compared to the other two tables that were chatting hotly, the table where Scout was full of EDG players had a somewhat cold atmosphere.

It's no wonder that Sima Lao Thief, Gala, and Jiejie are all sullen types and don't like to take the initiative to start topics.

Missing, on the other hand, was so hungry that he didn't have the strength to speak, and was lying on the table and watching the stopwatch countdown on his phone.

According to the owner, the firewood turkey needs to be stuffed for another ten to fifteen minutes before eating.

"Put clay in the wine, can the wine still be drunk?"

Looking at the Journey to the West playing on his mobile phone, Scout was very puzzled by Tang Taizong's operation, so he specially asked Zhao Lijie.

"Enmu, Tang Seng is going to go to the West Heaven to learn the scriptures is a long way, Tang Taizong put the soil into the wine glass, just to let Tang Seng remember to get the true scriptures and hurry back to the Tang Dynasty, anyway, the soil represents the meaning of the hometown!"

"I don't really want him to drink it."

Even though he has received nine years of compulsory education, his education level is much higher than that of a professional player who graduated from a kindergarten, but Jiejie's expression ability has declined because of playing games all day long.

But to put it mildly, it can be regarded as explaining this allusion to Scout.

"Oh!"

"I thought that drinking wine sprinkled with the soil of my hometown would allow Tang Seng to obtain some kind of magical mana!"

Scout came to his senses, and then fell into deep thought.

"I'd rather love my hometown and twist the soil, don't love my hometown with ten thousand taels of gold" looped repeatedly in his ears through Bluetooth headsets.

It was a long time before he slid his finger and flipped through the next short video.

It is also a historical allusion in ancient China, the story of a 'mother' who tattooed her son's back.

"It's been ten minutes!"

Missing watched as the countdown to zero on his phone, straightened up, and then lifted the wooden lid from the pot in the surprised eyes of the waiter on the side.

"Xiao Lou, ten to fifteen minutes can be eaten is just an approximate time, not that you can eat in ten minutes." Zuo Wu at the other table said with a smile: "You should be hungry to see how you look, you first poke the chicken in the pot with chopsticks if it is cooked, if it is not cooked, you can dip it in the juice and eat a corn poop first." ”

"Okay."

Smelling the sound of the pot and listening to the wail of his stomach, Missing picked up one of the golden corn poop plastered with the edge of the iron pot, and then put it in the pot and dipped it in the thick soup made of firewood turkey and spices, and then put it in his mouth and puffed.

In the mouth, the rich soup and the unique sweet aroma of corn poop reverberate, coupled with the soft taste, Missing's eyes lit up!

"This is a good deal!"

"You eat it too, and the chicken is almost cooked after eating."

Seeing Missing's look of enjoyment, several people at the same table immediately picked up chopsticks.

Scout was also a little hungry.

He put down his mobile phone, did the same, sandwiched a corn poop and dipped it in the soup in the pot, and then added some 'Meishan pickles' that the restaurant gave away for free and put it in his mouth.

It's delicious!

However, Meishan kimchi is better than corn poop.

While Scout chewed, he began to mentally compare the difference between Meishan kimchi and Korean kimchi (Shandong kimchi).

After adding n qualifiers, Scout came to the conclusion that Korean kimchi is more suitable for the national constitution of the universe.

……

Before the Spring Festival, the LPL schedule is based on 6 games a week, and two games are played every day.

So at the beginning of the Spring Festival holiday, the six teams with high traffic, such as EDG and RNG, actually played 1 game less than the other teams.

And these games were also officially arranged by the LPL in the days after the Spring Festival holiday when the LPL restarted, and the main thing was to quickly fill up the audience flow.

Therefore, compared with other clubs, the Spring Festival holiday of EDG Club starts early and closes early.

The second day of the mountain city's return to the magic capital.

Jiang Zhun woke up early as usual.

Although the competition ended on the 21st, EDG's Spring Festival holiday only started on the 25th.

This is to prepare for the end of the Spring Festival and the resumption of the LPL.

For the sake of fairness, the three matches of the six teams on the first day of the tournament will still be in version 8.1, and the league will not update the tournament version until the end of the third week.

Compared to those clubs that played three games, so in the period from the 22nd to the 25th, EDG still had to dig into version 8.1 rather than immediately switch to the new version of the adaptation.

With great power comes great responsibility.

LPL officials gave the first match day after the Spring Festival to stronger clubs such as EDG, which got traffic.

The weaker teams, on the other hand, will have to wait until at least the 26th when the game is over, and they will be happy not to waste time on the old version.

All in all, LPL's seemingly strange arrangement this time is not an operational brain-dead.

"Isn't Scout up yet?"

There is no holiday, so the morning exercise is still the same.

Seeing the team members standing in front with their sleepy eyes rubbing, Jiang Zhun found that the team members were missing one person.

"He's home."

A member of the dormitory team with fried hair and a bird's nest at the door of Scout said weakly: "When I woke up to the toilet today, I found him leaving with his suitcase, and asked him about his morning plane. ”

"Today? I remember saying it was the 23rd."

Jiang Zhun rubbed his head and remembered, the phone vibrated a little.

It's a message from Sister Bu:

[Scout said he was homesick last night and couldn't sleep, and then this morning he changed his ticket and asked me to take leave to go home early, and I saw it. 】

[Let's find the second team's mid-laner for tonight's training match, you remember to talk to Ming Kai]

[Xiao Can, this little friend really doesn't let the heat worry. 】

Since he asked Sister Bu for leave, Jiang Zhun didn't ask any more.

After a few people did a warm-up exercise, the three-kilometer trot began.

……

February 14, 2018, the twenty-ninth day of the lunar calendar.

Appropriate: Pray for heirs and blessings

Don't: Breaking the ground and opening the light

This day is Valentine's Day, and Jiang Zhun is not accompanied by anyone.

He lay in the car seat, groggy and asleep.

Some time ago, he did not leave directly after the holiday of the EDG club, but stayed with the factory director to discuss the version, study the playing style of several strong teams in the east, and watch the game video of the LCK division next door.

The new season and new lineup, although they have been familiar with each other for a long time, there is no problem for this EDG team to dominate the Western Region in terms of overall strength after the blood change and run-in.

But in the east, where strong teams gather, it seems that even the top three may not be ranked.

RNG, IG, RA, objectively speaking, let the current EDG play BO3 with these three teams, EDG's win rate can only be between 40% and 60%.

So

In the days after the holiday, Jiang Zhun and the factory director have been groping for the version, trying to find out the most suitable way to play for this next game as soon as possible.

The process is really tiring.

Many problems are also difficult to solve, and from time to time, the two ask to help Analyst Fan, who is returning home from vacation, and ask him to work overtime to help.

……

February 15, the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

A small village in the southwest.

When the prelude to the song "Unforgettable Tonight" was heard on the TV, fireworks began to decorate the night.

This year's fireworks are louder than in previous years, more numerous, denser, and longer.

The colors are even more brilliant.

On the open ground in front of a certain room, two figures, one large and one small, sat on a stool, watching the flowers bloom.

"How many days are you going to stay at home?"

"The fifth day of the new year is leaving. This year's competition schedule is a bit tight, and I will go to Xi'an on the eighth day of the new year. ”

"The fifth day of junior high school? It's really early. ”

The old man touched his white beard, "Can you win?" If you have difficulties, you can actually do it in advance."

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult, the Western Division, eh, it's our division, and our team is the strongest!"

"That's good, although I don't know which team is strong and which team is weak, but I can still understand the wins and losses of the game! What time is the game on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year? I'll see. ”

"Seven o'clock in the evening, prime time!"

"Whoa! At seven o'clock, I want to watch "News Network". ”

“……”

The old and the young talked until two o'clock, and the night sky had long since disappeared, and the light of the fireworks returned to darkness.

Jiang Zhun helped the village chief's grandfather into the house and turned around to close the door.

A cold breeze blew, the smell of sulfur in the air was dispelled, and the moon in the sky, covered by dark clouds, once again showed her brightness.

Well, the single dog Jiang Zhun sleeps in a room alone.

……

"Scout won't arrive until tomorrow, so let's talk about version 8.2 today."

"Well, take note of the highlights of today's summary of the release, and send a copy to Scout. Why did you buy the wrong plane ticket at the wrong time? ”

The factory director in a trench coat frowned.

After the Spring Festival holiday, EDG everyone returned to the club on Lingshi Road.

New year, new atmosphere.

Although the separation was not too long, everyone's situation has changed.

Among them, the biggest change is the spicy incense pot.

Due to the high hairline, his hairstyle has always been a bit too raunchy, giving it a very sloppy feeling.

Jiang Zhun once gave him a suggestion to keep his head open, but the moment the spicy incense pot lifted his hair, Jiang Zhun felt that his suggestion was a "malicious suggestion" and said sorry.

And the sister control proposed that the spicy incense pot could be left in the middle point, but after the spicy incense pot parted her hair, the sister control also learned Jiang Zhun's tone and actions and apologized to the spicy incense pot.

In this regard, Mala Xiangguo said that he was very hurt, and with the morning exercise every morning, his complexion gradually improved, and he was about to go home for the New Year, and he also wanted to change his image.

According to the rules of the EDG club, players can perm their hair but not dye their hair.

After repeatedly confirming with Abu, Mala Xiangguo went to the barber shop alone to perm his hair on the day of the holiday a year ago.

As for what it looks like after a perm

Because when he returned to the club that night, he wore a hat and went straight to his room, so no one knew about it.

"Haa-ha."

Inadvertently swept the spicy incense pot, and the factory director's stinky face because Scout failed to return to the club on time instantly became distorted, and then choked on the trachea due to smiling and coughing repeatedly.

"Ahem, ahem, eight, eight, two version"

"The probability of stealing items from [Stealing Omen] will be reduced, and then Ezreal's Q skill base damage will also be reduced."

"It's not that big for our team."

The factory director's face gradually turned red because of the smile, and the spicy incense pot sitting in front of him was directly red because of the factory director's smile.

He touched his explosive head, and then said helplessly: "Wait until I go upstairs first and get a hat to wear." ”
