After the one-man interview with CCTV reporters, Mingrui returned to the Asian Games Village and officially said goodbye to the national team coach and teammates.

Then he immediately packed his luggage and got up to leave Jakarta, and flew back to Europe non-stop, and even "catch up on sleep" was done on the plane.

No way, Mingrui's time is really too tight.

Because the semifinals of the European LCS Summer Playoffs are about to start on September 1st, that is, the day after tomorrow!

Although the G2 team already has Jankos as a substitute jungler, it seems that there is absolutely no problem in playing a semi-final in place of Mingrui.

But the truth is, the problem is huge!

Because of the limited level of Jankos as a substitute jungler, and the run-in level of his other four teammates was not as high as expected, so that in the weeks since Mingrui left G2, the G2 team has only won one game, and lost all the other games!

If it weren't for Mingrui leading the G2 team to win enough games before leaving Europe, otherwise at the end of the regular season on August 19th, the G2 team would not only end up being overtaken by the FNC team to finish second in the regular season, but might be chased by the MSF team and successfully become third!

And once the G2 team becomes the third place in the regular season, then the G2 team will need to compete with the S04 team for a ticket to the semi-finals on August 25.

Fortunately, such a thing did not happen, otherwise the G2 team, which has dominated Europe for three years, may usher in the embarrassing situation of not reaching the semi-finals for the first time in six consecutive league seasons!

This is also why, at the first moment of the end of the Asian Games, not only the League of Legends viewers in Asia, but also the League of Legends viewers in Europe began to sing a sentence......

"It's not the G2 team/Huaxia national team that's strong at all, it's just Dark/Mingrui who is strong!"

So, when the S04 team successfully eliminated the VIT team and advanced to the semi-finals, the G2 team will face this opponent again.

But at this moment, G2 fans are not too anxious, because they are very sure that as long as Dark returns, then all teams in Europe, whether S04 or FNC, will be his defeaters!

If it is a spring playoffs, in the face of the powerful G2 team with Dark, the major European teams will never dare to say any "dissatisfaction".

But this time, things are different.

Because of Dark this time, it is absolutely impossible to continue his high-intensity competitive form in the semi-finals!

After all, the Asian Games only ended on August 29, and Dark officially returned to the G2 team base on the evening of August 30 and the early morning of 31 local time in Berlin.

In other words, there are less than 40 hours left for Dark to prepare for the semi-finals!

In these 40 hours, Dark not only needs to complete the adjustment of jet lag, but also needs to train with his teammates before the game, and also needs to cooperate with EU officials to shoot a promotional video before the semi-finals......

Although the matter of "taking advantage of people's danger" is not moral, and Schalke 04 cannot be regarded as glorious even if it wins, but despite this, in the face of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to "defeat the G2 team", the S04 team still released a bold statement before the game.

That is, they will definitely "take advantage of Dark's illness to kill G2", and break the dream of G2 to continue to dominate Europe with a semi-final matchup that may be very tough, but it will definitely win!

Not only the fans of the S04 team, but even some LPL fans in China are looking forward to Dark's first loss in his career!

Even if Dark just won the gold medal in the Asian Games for Huaxia? Since Dark has said that the league and the country must be separated, as long as Dark loses the league and does not complete his four consecutive league championships, it can still be shown that Dark is not invincible after all, and Dark is still a rookie after all!

So, in the midst of the anticipation of all the global audiences who were looking forward to the semi-finals of Dark and G2, the semi-finals of the European League playoffs finally started on September 1st!

In the first semi-final, the FNC team easily defeated the MSF team with a score of 3-1 and advanced to the finals.

The second semi-final that followed was the match between the G2 team and the S04 team.

And as all the "Dark fans" expected, when Dark obviously came to the stage with a pair of panda eyes, the G2 team lost the first small game at the speed of light.

In the second small game, G2's situation was not much better, and after a difficult struggle, it was successfully won by the S04 team.

However, just when all the "Dark fans" thought that today's G2 team would definitely be 3-0 like them and everyone else, they didn't realize that in the process of the second game, as Dark got a few heads, his form had actually gotten better and better!

Then, this improvement in form was successfully reflected in the third game!

Although it was very difficult for the G2 team to win, the G2 team withstood the pressure and managed to win the third game.

In the next fourth game, Dark's state became visibly better, and the S04 jungler, who was still barely able to make two moves with Dark in the first three games, was directly beaten back to his original form in this game.

So, when the G2 team tied the score and dragged the game into the tiebreaker, although Mingrui, who came to the stage again, still had those huge black circles under his eyes, everyone could clearly see that Mingrui at this time was incomparably rejuvenated and glorious!

"Grass, what's going on with this Dark? Why is the game getting better and better? ”

"In the first game, you can clearly see that he is very sleepy, but how can he still be more and more sober after playing five games?"

"This guy doesn't know how to dope, does he? Or what kind of hyperactive drugs did you take? It feels completely against the laws of human physiology! ”

"Schalke 04 is too vegetable, it's just the last kick in the door, and it didn't kill G2."

"Now FNC is going to cry to death, and I have to play G2 in the finals, or a week later, and when Dark is completely adjusted, FNC will win the runner-up again."

When the G2 team miraculously completed the second chasing the third, not only the S04 team itself, but all the spectators who were looking forward to the G2 team and Dark's overturn went crazy on the spot.

Because they could never have imagined that Dark could lead the G2 team to complete this miraculous two-chase three-to-three after only one day of continuous battles, without even reversing the jet lag, and even the playoff version 8.16 with only one day of practice?!

They can't imagine this question, but what they can imagine is that if Dark can defeat his opponent in such a "bad" situation, then at this year's S8 World Finals, how terrifying will it be for Dark, who has started to win all at that time?!

……

"Hunting rhythm is a really good thing."

"I always thought it didn't mean much, except for staying up late to play the rankings, I almost didn't need it."

"But now it seems that every skill the system has given me has a place for him!"

After the semi-finals, Mingrui rested for two days.

Although the finals will be played again on September 9th, the G2 coach and his teammates have no objection to his rest, after all, Dark's state is the key to whether the G2 team can win the summer championship again, not this more day and less training time!

But having said that, it still needs to be trained, after all, although the FNC team lost Caps this year, the regular season results went from the penultimate all the way to the final league first.

This shows that this year's FNC team still has something, so the G2 team can't take it lightly.

And just when Mingrui began to train seriously, the Chinese domestic LPL division also began to warm up for the 2018LPL summer playoffs that will start tomorrow on September 5th.

The preheating materials are no different from previous years, but the difference this year is that CCTV officials also took this opportunity to finally release many interview videos of the League of Legends national team after winning the championship!

The content of the one-man interview before Mingrui left Jakarta is also among them!

So, when countless LPL fans saw the interview content in Mingrui's interview video, they exploded one after another.

"Damn, what does this Mingrui mean? He actually asked us LPL to learn the national football team? ”

"Damn, this Mingrui is too weird, right?! Doesn't letting LPL learn the national football team is tantamount to clearly hoping that LPL will get worse and worse? ”

"Does this CCTV reporter understand League of Legends or e-sports? Mingrui has been sneering at us LPL, can't she hear it? ”

"I also wish LPL and the national football team to get better and better together? I'll her! Who wants to get better and better with the national football team, isn't that tantamount to self-defeat? ”

"Dog Bidak, don't dare to scold LPL directly in front of the CCTV camera, just engage in this kind of yin and yang weird method, aren't you disgusting!"

"It is strongly recommended that Dark be officially banned, and it is strongly recommended that the national team remove Mingrui! Such people do not deserve to be representatives of the state! Not worthy to be our role model! ”

As soon as the CCTV interview video came out, the LPL fans, who were already incomparably glassy, directly broke the big defense at this moment.

In the past week, because Mingrui had just led the national team to win the gold medal in the Asian Games, they didn't dare to speak even if they were unhappy with Mingrui in their hearts.

But now, when Mingrui said this "radical remark", they finally found an opportunity to fight back and began another crusade against Mingrui!

Even if Mingrui is the champion of the Asian Games, as long as he Dark is still the enemy of the LPL, then he still has to go to the crusade!

However, today's public opinion environment for Dark in the LPL has long been different from the past.

Although there are still a large number of LPL fans who regard Dark as a mortal enemy in the LPL, there are also a large number of fans who regard Dark as a "lighthouse" in the LPL!

So, in the face of the crusade of these LPL fans, Dark fans also launched a counterattack against them.

"Laugh to death, let LPL learn the national football team and break the defense?"

"I'm thinking that what Mingrui said is right, although the national football team is not very good, it seems to be much stronger than LPL, right?"

"Although the results of the national football team do not seem to be good, you must know that the football competition is much more comparable to the League of Legends! And not to mention anything else, the national football team won the Asian Cup in 1981, has the LPL won even one S championship? ”

"Let LPL be ashamed and brave, what's wrong with learning the national football team?"

"Besides, even if you don't study grades, there's nothing wrong with learning the spirit of the national football team, right? Although the national football team lost 0-6 to Wales on March 22 and the Czech Republic 1-4 on March 26, it won 1-0 against Myanmar on May 26 and Thailand 2-0 on June 2! ”

"The national football team is getting stronger and stronger, but what about LPL? It's getting stronger and stronger, but it's the top four, the top eight, and the top sixteen of the world championship, and it's getting stronger and stronger year by year. ”

"If you don't have fart results, you know the glass heart, and Dark is kind enough to give advice to LPL, but you think it's cynicism, hehe, it's really kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, no wonder Dark is reluctant to go back to LPL, if I'm Dark, I don't want to go back to this kind of garbage league!"

LPL fans and Dark fans scolded each other like this, and no one could convince anyone for a while.

It's just that they ignore the third group in this incident...... That's the national football fan!

Originally, national football fans didn't know what Mingrui said, and they didn't even know what Mingrui did, but as LPL fans became more and more noisy, and when they directly quarreled on the hot search list of the neck, some national football fans finally saw this hot search entry called #Mingrui suggested that LPL learn from the national football team#.

And when the national football fans also watched this video, they also blew up, and they all joined the Internet war like fried orange cats.

But the anger of national football fans is not in Mingrui players, but in the attitude of LPL fans towards the national football team!

In the eyes of national football fans, it is absolutely no problem for Mingrui to suggest that LPL learn the national football team, because the spirit of the national football team is the spirit of repeated defeats and never giving up.

But in the mouths of LPL fans, learning the national football team seems to have become an extremely shameful thing!

If it is table tennis and badminton, which are strong sports in China, they are unwilling to learn the national football team, which is understandable.

But the question is, why do you LPL dare to touch the porcelain national football team?

Throughout the entire history of LPL, since its establishment in 2012 to 2018 this year, it has been a total of seven years, and it has only won the runner-up in the S competition in 2013 and 2014, and in the following four years, it has become worse and worse every year!

Just have the face to say that you don't want to learn the national football team?

The national football team reached the top 12 of Asia last year and almost entered the World Cup, but what about LPL? Whether or not we can keep the semi-finals of the S competition is a question!

Talking about rankings? With the size of e-sports, do you dare to touch the world's number one sport in porcelain football?!

Even if you don't talk about football, Mingrui is the champion of the Asian Games and the S7 world champion or the champion of the two-time MSI, the champions have let LPL learn the national football team, and LPL still can't listen to the advice, and it's all glass hearts? No wonder it's getting worse and worse!

As more and more national football fans joined the battlefield and began to angrily spray the group of LPL fans who looked down on the national football team, the sound of this online scolding war gradually became low.

Because for that group of LPL fans, they can still have some combat effectiveness in engaging in fan circle culture within the LPL, but in the face of a larger number of fans, their half-star number is not enough to see at all!

As a result, LPL fans quickly fell silent, although they did not make it clear that LPL was willing to learn the national football team, but they no longer dared to be "arrogant" in front of the fans, but they had already gritted their teeth against Mingrui in their hearts, and secretly swore in their hearts.

Since this year is the strongest and most promising year for LPL, then LPL must defeat the G2 team in the S8 World Finals and win the S8 World Championship!

Only in this way can LPL be able to raise its eyebrows and be proud of the crowd!

……

"Hehe, a group of things that bully the soft and are afraid of the hard, this is cowardice?"

"I was so energetic when I was crusading, but I couldn't bear it after being sprayed by the national football team for two games?"

"The fans of the co-author fan circle really never play against the wind!"

In the G2 team, when Mingrui finally finished the phased training and took advantage of the break to brush the scarf, he naturally saw the whole process of the entire online scolding war.

I was thinking about asking the leaders of the national team to see if I needed to post a Weibo to quell this farce caused by myself, but I never thought that I didn't even need to speak, and LPL fans directly confessed!

"And you still want to liquidate me every day?"

"Do you want to win the S8 World Championship?"

"But stop dreaming!"

"And as some netizens said, what does our Chinese national team have to do with their LPL?"

"LPL is really stinky and shameless!"

"Wait, there is less than a month left before S8, so I'll let LPL continue to dream for a while."

"When S8 officially starts, I will definitely let LPL thoroughly understand that the so-called most promising year for LPL will always be just empty talk, just an illusion!"

Mingrui clenched his fists, sneered, and then didn't say anything more, and entered the final preparation again.

……

With this farce over, in the next few days, the Global League of Legends Pro League finally entered the final battle for qualification to the 2018 League of Legends World Championship.

On September 5th, the 8-in-6 game in the first round of the LPL summer playoffs finally started.

In the first game, the JDG team easily defeated the FPX team 3-1 to advance to the top 6, and Mingrui immediately sent his blessings to Zeng Qi.

However, before the start of the second TOP team against the SNG team, Mingrui was stunned to find something he didn't expect.

That was the SNG mid-laner position that originally belonged to Zhuoding, but at this time it has become a strange face called Angel!

This situation made Mingrui frown, and immediately contacted Zhuo Ding.

It wasn't until this moment that Mingrui finally learned that in the past entire summer tournament, Zhuo Ding was not even able to play as a substitute, let alone play as a starter!

And when Mingrui learned the cause and effect of the whole incident from Zhuo Ding's mouth, the anger in Mingrui's heart finally burst out!

"SNG of grass xx, LPL of grass xx!"

"I knew this was the case, when I was interviewed by CCTV at the time, I should have taken the opportunity to scold this garbage LPL to death!"
