Chapter Eighty-Three: Opening Ceremony, Debut!

Could it be that Lee Sang-hyuk can't beg Eun Jing and change his sexual orientation now, right?

Ha people!

Xu Yuan fell into deep thought.

He didn't know that Lee Sang-hyuk was the abstract cow.

So I don't know how I met each other at all.

Naturally, it will feel inexplicable.

Think about it.

It's as if you made an appointment with your rival tonight to fight out in League of Legends, and as a result, your rival said to you with affection before Solo:

Handsome guys, competition second, friendship first.

I'm super!

Who isn't afraid of this?

With the current level of contempt for the LPL in the LCK, Lee Sang-hyuk showed an attitude that was a little too friendly.

"You two know each other?"

Ming Kai opened his mouth a little suspiciously.

Xu Yuan immediately looked right,

"Big brother, you know me."

"I'm a native of CN, and I either train or watch videos every day, where can I have time to meet Lee Sang-hyuk?"

"When I met him in Rank, I always remembered that I was an EDG player, and I didn't dare to interact with a word!"

Mingkai nodded, "Yes." ”

"But that's weird...... I remember the last time I played MSI with them, Lee Sang-hyuk didn't talk to us at all except when we shook hands. ”

He muttered, and went down to the restaurant on the third floor with Xu Yuan.

The EDG players live in 401 to 403, while the coaching staff is on the second floor.

It's a pity that Xu Yuan didn't see the player he wanted to know during this meal.

Karsa, the wolf king of the lightning wolves, and the genius midlaner of G2, Perkz.

Karsa doesn't need to say much.

Although he was born in the LMS division, his level is surprisingly high.

It is the Lightning Wolf World Championship that can occasionally ferment the Korean team and become the main hero of the anti-Korean heroes.

In a Korean prisoner of war camp, that was more or less a battalion commander.

And this player also joined the RNG team of LPL in S8 in the future, and played equally well.

Even if he later transferred to TES, he is still undoubtedly a top-level rhythm jungler.

The strength is leveraged.

Xu Yuan is still quite curious about Karsa.

Although he has the black material of going abroad to play in the jungle, S8RNG's dominance in the league stage is also inseparable from him.

And the other person he wants to meet is naturally Perkz.

【Ah P】

【Returnees】

【The Nightmare of Gambling Dogs】

【CJB Theory Proprifier】

【LCS Forever Dripping】

All of the above titles belong to him: Z!

Ah P, who was born in 98, has just passed his nineteenth birthday this year, but he is already the undisputed king of Europe.

Since his arrival in Europe's top league in 2016, G2 has won three consecutive LCS titles.

What is dominance?

That's dominance!

Although it is also related to another talented mid-laner Caps, who has not yet fully entered his peak, he is now the absolute No. 1 mid-laner in Europe.

A real European king.

In 2017, WE, the original champion of the LPL, was sent away by G2.

And Perkz definitely contributed to it.

This player was later converted to AD after Caps at his peak joined G2, and he played unexpectedly well.

Career can definitely be regarded as four words: magnificent!

If North America is the backyard of the big brother Doublelift, then Europe is undoubtedly the football stadium of Doublelift.

He can swim the dragon as much as he wants!

Xu Yuan's eyes wandered around the field and saw many players with familiar faces.

Like a lightning wolf's middle lan, with two particularly obvious eye bags on his face, Maple Fengtang looks very kidney-deficient.

Talking very locomotive, laughing out loud auxiliary SwordArt Snake Snake.

G2's "capable, celebrity" ADC, Zven.

TSM's mid-laner has not yet grown a beard, pure e-sports little fresh meat king Pilson.

The IDs of these people used to be familiar to him when he was lying in bed.

That's it, Worlds!

Compete with the top players from different regions for the same goal: MSI Championship.

The race is unfolding!

The best of the best has their own strong players, and it's hard to win the championship in this group.

But since Xu Yuan was standing here, he had to think about whether this was the only chance he had in this life.

After eating, I helped other teammates bring one upstairs by the way.

Xu Yuan entered his room, and immediately fell asleep after washing.

He had to adjust to the jet lag.

In fact, it is not only EDG's players and coaches who have come to Brazil in the LPL.

In fact, eight other commentators also came to the scene.

They are the narrators in charge of the live broadcast.

At this moment, the commentary doll is standing in place awkwardly.

The time goes back to five minutes ago.

The commentators, who also arrived, were discussing what to eat and decided to go downstairs to eat.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they got downstairs, they ran into a commentary sent by South Korea.

The narrator is not tall, but he is surprisingly strong, and he suddenly collided with a doll.

"Excuse me, are you alright?"

The doll stood up, spoke slightly apologetically in English, and reached out to pull him up.

The Korean commentator just glanced at his outstretched hand, got up and patted the dust on his body.

I ignored it and left directly.

Only the doll was left frozen in place.

"Who?"

Su Xiaoyan was quite dissatisfied.

Obviously, it was the Korean who bumped into him by himself, and the doll apologized to him, but he ignored it and left directly!

This quality is really outrageous.

She was a little tempted to catch up with the theory, but was stopped by Miller, who looked gloomy.

"Forget it, Xiaoyan."

Su Xiaoyan looked around, and many of the commentators from other competition areas were smiling, as if they were watching a good show.

A few people finished their meal and sat in a corner.

Miller spoke bitterly.

"Leave them alone, they don't look down on us."

"Why?"

Su Xiaoyan immediately asked rhetorically.

"By grades."

The doll sighed.

"We couldn't even beat Europe and the United States last year, the players had poor results on the field, and the LPL commentary didn't have the confidence to greet people backstage."

"Not to mention the outbreak of conflict, the fist side will not care."

If you don't have strength, you can only be beaten.

Even if it is a commentary, it is one with the honor of the division.

LPL's current World Championship results are too bad, which directly leads to LPL's commentary being looked down upon.

The LPL is a garbage division.

The commentary of the garbage competition area is naturally also a garbage commentary.

That's what it means.

Riot doesn't care about that at all.

Invisible discrimination is inevitable.

Su Xiaoyan clenched her fists, but she could only let go weakly.

"Let's hope EDG wins."

She spoke with some pleading.

"Who doesn't want EDG to win, although I support RNG in China, but now that EDG has released the LPL, I must support EDG, after all, this is the honor of the division."

Miller sighed.

"But it's hard to win."

"Let's not talk about SKT, G2 and Lightning Wolves on the European side are not weak teams."

His eyes were a little empty, and he ate mechanically.

The atmosphere fell silent for a while.

This is just a small episode.

More than a day passed in a flash, with the arrival of May 11th.

The 2017 Brazil Mid-Season Invitational is about to usher in the opening ceremony!

At this time, Xu Yuan had already followed the team to the scene.

Standing at the entrance of the stadium team, he was refreshed and high-spirited.

The discomfort of jet lag has completely subsided.

Even if Ah Shui, a famous LPL adjustment master, comes, it is estimated that he can only evaluate him:

The adjustment is good, and the brothers are very satisfied.

The scene has been completely darkened.

Several European and American commentators were dressed in formal clothes and smiling.

The famous Nakabuki commentary cat has a somewhat serious face.

"Welcome to the opening ceremony, where the countdown will soon be over and you will be presented with the 2017 League of Legends Mid-Season Invitational, Group Stage matches!"

The blonde commentator sitting at the front spoke quickly, because the countdown in the center of the arena had already begun.

By the time he finished speaking, the countdown had already begun to move.

As the countdown reached 5, the audience began to count down in unison.

The exaggerated sound waves like ocean waves hit Xu Yuan wave after wave!

Although it was a group stage, the venue for the opening ceremony was not small.

In some dim audiences, all kinds of graffiti painted with fluorescent paint, people shouting wildly, all counted down in unison.

The feeling of restlessness that was so hot that people couldn't help but boil their blood filled the air.

"Boom!"

As the countdown ended, a dull drum sounded.

This was followed by a dense drum beat.

Xu Yuan can only say that it has local characteristics, and it reminds people of samba when it sounds like it, but it is a little too simple.

It doesn't feel as good as it was in 2016...... Shanghai.

However, it is a pity that MSI and RNG failed to win last year.

With the end of the drumming performance.

The four huge screens in the middle of the screen begin to show highlights from the first MSI Mid-Season Invitational in 2015 to the second edition last year.

"The first Centralized Invitational Tournament is coming to Florida!"

Accompanied by the voice of the commentary at the time, Faker, who looked dark at the time, appeared.

“Faker has never loss withs Lebron!”

This is how the narrator praised him at the time.

Faker's LeBron, aka the Enchantress.

Never lost!

But this time, he lost.

In the team battle of the big dragon pit in the picture, Faker was caught by EDG and lost the opportunity in seconds.

The passionate commentary sounded again!

“EDG is take down Faker!”

"EDG from LPL will be the champion of the first MSI Mid-Season Invitational in 2015!"

Ming Kai raised his head and stared silently at the 2015 EDG that hugged each other tightly in the picture.

He once naively thought that they really had a chance that year, after all, even SKT had won.

In the end, it was still like a bubble.

Nowadays, it is a matter of things and people.

But when he turned his head to see Xu Yuan, he smiled silently.

The current EDG is also quite good.

Next, of course, is the 2016 MSI clip.

It is not known whether the fist was intentional or accidental.

Obviously, S6's MSI champion is SKT, but it just played a picture of RNG winning SKT in the group stage before showing the picture of SKT winning the championship.

Only...... It's outrageous.

With the end of the 2016 MSI picture, the gilded characters of 2017 appeared in the center of the screen.

"Welcome to the 2017 Mid-Season Invitational in São Paulo, Brazil!"

Opens with such a sentence.

In the sky above the venue, team flags began to slowly hang down one after another.

EDG for LPL, SKT for LCK, G2 for Europe, TSM for North America, FW Lightning Wolf for Curved Corner, GAM for Vietnam......

One after another, flags with the team's logp were hung at the scene of the game.

And not only the teams that make it to the group stage.

Even if it was the banner of the other teams eliminated in the play-in tournament, the fist was put up without discrimination.

Xu Yuan couldn't help but give his fist a thumbs up.

Although the fist is a piece of made of balance, the human favor is still okay, the old master of Duanshui.

It's really too gentle and spicy, Xu Yuan really cried to death!

Next, of course, it's time for the players to play.

"Just smile and wave later, don't be nervous, just laugh a little more and walk slowly to the center of the venue, do you remember the location of the morning rehearsal?"

Ming Kai whispered, patiently like an old father who didn't know that he would run home when it rained for his stupid son.

The stupid son Xu Yuan who was told: ......

"Brother, I'm not a three-year-old child."

He couldn't laugh or cry.

Ming Kai didn't mind, "It's okay, just remind you, it's best for you to remember!" ”

The first team to be introduced was the G2 team from the European region.

The core of the team, Ah P, undoubtedly stood at the front, waving his arms to greet the audience.

Xu Yuan was not far away, and he could clearly see the expression of enjoyment on his face.

Then there is TSM from the North American region.

The Brazilian crowd was actually quite enthusiastic, cheering every team when they came out.

It's just that they are more enthusiastic about TSM, which is called a North American cult.

The reason why it is called a North American cult is because TSM is like LGD in the LPL, no matter what team appears, someone will always call their team name.

At the forefront, of course, is the core of the mid-laner, Pilson.

Pilsen, a handsome European and American guy with glasses and a youthful look, walked down the passage with dazzling steps.

He looked shy.

Immediately after that, of course, it was GAM.

As a team in the Vietnam region, they can enter the group stage, which is definitely a bit of strength.

…… Probably not much, though.

Some of the Vietnamese audience who came to the scene also shouted excitedly.

Being able to enter the main competition is an honor in itself for the small division!

Especially in a fledgling region like Vietnam.

They feel that this is the most glorious time for the Vietnam Division.

But they were wrong.

At least Xu Yuan knew it very well.

Later Vietnamese bean curd...... That's a lot!

And after GAM in Vietnam, it is naturally EDG.

"Team from the LPL, EDG!"

With the host's introduction, Xu Yuan, who was standing at the front with Scout, took a deep breath and smiled at the camera.

With a wave of his hand, he walked down the tunnel of the contestants.

"Wow~"

The cat couldn't help but sigh.

On the big screen, although the teenager wearing the EDG team uniform looked a little green, her outstanding and delicate eyebrows still made her exclaim.

One word, cute.

Not only cute, but also handsome!

Although the cat didn't say anything, it seemed like she said everything.

Xu Yuan walked very steadily, with a steady and decent pace.

I have to say that he left a very good impression on audiences all over the world.

Especially in South Korea, where there are a lot of Yan dogs.

Many Korean female viewers have already started to check his ID.

SKT is still supported, but ......

When EDG doesn't fight SKT, it should be okay for us Korean female viewers to support EDG

…… Right?

And the last one to appear is naturally SKT.

They were last year's MSI champions.

At this moment, he is also holding the championship trophy in his hand, appearing directly from the center of the stage.

Lee Sang-hyuk and his teammates held the trophy and placed it on the trophy stand in the center of the stage.

No mud and water in the slightest.

"It's going to be lost for a short time, but it's coming back soon."

That's what he thinks.

This concludes the opening ceremony.

The race is about to begin!
