Chapter 146 A Problem to be Solved
"Kid, a living fossil of e-sports, has played for IG for five consecutive years"
"The LPL transfer boom has ended, new players are emerging and Korean players are gradually fading"
The core carry point remains unchanged, EDG sets sail again
Analysis of the prospects of the major teams
The Lucky One, From a Small Anchor to a World Champion Team
For a time, major media outlets commented on the changes during the transfer period.
JackeyLove, who joined IG as a king of passers-by and then directly transferred to EDG, has undoubtedly become the envy of most active AD players.
but.
There is one exception.
That's the old thief Sima.
The golden age for players of League of Legends, a MOBA e-sports game, is generally between 18 and 21 years old.
Four short years passed in a flash.
Compared to EDG, which will definitely compete with youth training AD for the job in the summer season.
The IG team, which has not even prepared a substitute, is obviously more suitable for the old thief who is only half a year away from his 20th birthday.
After all, the AD who is promoted from the youth training team early on must be talented enough and more valued.
As long as the gap is not too big, he will definitely be able to secure the starting position.
Take this aspect into consideration.
Even if he had the opportunity to negotiate with EDG, Sima Laozei's final choice would still be IG, which has SKT top laner Duke joining.
Together with Rookie, who was already called the dean, they are called the Trident.
Instigated by Su Xiaoluo, the principal believed that letting JackeyLove go was a trick on EDG. Besides, since they were in the same circle, they would see each other every day, so he did not use the age issue to make a fuss.
Of course, there is a more important reason.
——At this level, no one’s butt is cleaner than anyone else’s.
For EDG, iboy, who has been trained in youth training for a whole year, has performed well and will be able to play after his birthday in the summer season.
What I'm looking for is just a transitional item.
The terms and conditions with JackeyLove are clear and it's a mutual agreement. There's no need to waste other players' precious peak time.
The final result is a happy ending for everyone.
"Brother Jie, look, look."
JackeyLove, who has been at the EDG base for several days, opened a small account to browse the forum during his break.
Repost a post.
Xing Dao clicked on it casually and found that it was an evaluation of the strength of each major team.
The only S-level team: EDG. EDG, which has FMVP top laner General, has maintained at least 90% of its combat effectiveness with the likes of Clearlove, Meiko, and Scout all staying on the team.
As for the question of whether the new AD will be a drag, the author suggests that everyone review the 1v5 team battle in the finals.
…
Grade A: IG. Duke is the best top laner against General in the World Finals. He is very strong. Together with Rookie and Sima Laozei, he is enough to occupy a place in LPL.
Level A: RNG. After experiencing the downturn with OMG, UZI has recovered his form. Together with the original core players MLXG and Xiaohu, even if they cannot reach the first echelon in the world, they are still the best in the second echelon.
Support player Ming is known as 'Ming Shen' in LSPL, and he is on the same YM team as General, so his performance is worth looking forward to.
The team is ranked below IG because of the possible negative impact caused by the departure of Mata and Looper.
…
Grade B: VG, the chemistry between the mid-jungle combination of Easyhoon and Bengi cannot be ignored. With coach PoohManDu introduced from SKT, the future is promising.
Level B: LGD. After GODV recovered from his hand injury and returned to the game, LGD team's condition has obviously improved. In addition, with the renewal of contracts with Marin and Imp , they still have the ability to impact world competitions.
B-level: WE...
…
“That makes some sense.”
The factory director sat aside and peeked at the screen.
I was very happy to see EDG was listed in a unique category.
After all, compared with other workers, the factory director who holds 2.5% of the shares is half a half a half a half a half... boss.
After achieving success, I continue to play games just for my dream.
"Hey, factory boss, can you please change the chef in the cafeteria?"
Xing Dao held it in for a long time, but finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Brothers, you are all wealthy people worth millions. The food you usually eat is not even as good as the roadside stalls. It's a bit too much."
The upper limit of the bet contract is a transfer fee of five million plus an annual salary of three million.
The previous profits belong to YM boss PDD.
Needless to say, the rest belongs entirely to Xing Dao.
The world champion will receive 2.028 million US dollars. According to the current exchange rate of 7.0262, in addition to the rewards for coaches, staff and substitute players, each main player will receive 2.6 million RMB.
The official prize is 200,000 yuan per person.
The club gave each person an additional 300,000.
There will be a 25% share of the profits from subsequent skins.
Adding everything together, it shouldn't be too difficult to break eight digits.
Even now, Xing Dao has 4.1 million in savings, which includes two months' salary, various bonuses, and a 500,000 red envelope transferred by PDD.
As long as you don't fantasize about being the e-sports Buffett and don't touch any investments randomly, finding a small fourth or fifth tier city will be enough to live on for the rest of your life.
Unfortunately...
Even if you become financially independent, what you eat every day is still stir-fried green peppers with a little minced meat, and stewed tomatoes that randomly fall between salty and sweet.
The best thing is probably... fried chicken?
It couldn't compare to the dark version of oriental cuisine provided by the official team during the World Finals.
Fortunately, we are currently in the off-season and the club’s management is not that strict, so we can ask the factory manager to help order takeout.
When the competition day starts, you can only eat two meals a day in the cafeteria.
"That's right, it's worse than me throwing away that green pepper fried pork rice."
JackeyLove expressed his support: "On the first day I came here, I wanted to run away when I saw the cafeteria. If it weren't for Brother Jie, I really wouldn't be able to stay in our team."
"Hiss..." The factory manager really didn't pay attention: "I think it's good."
This is the truth.
In ancient times, professional players were still a very high-end concept.
There are many amateur teams competing in national competitions.
The players inside cannot be called players.
It can only be said that he is a high-end player in the game.
After all, with no salary, no dormitory, sharing instant noodles and sleeping in Internet cafes, talking about the so-called "career" is a complete joke.
The factory manager had come through that era and didn't think there was anything wrong with the canteen.
I usually eat better than anyone else.
"Brother Factory, times have changed."
Xing Dao skillfully found a recent interview with Deft by Korean media: "See, Deft said Chinese food is bad, but this is a Korean who can heat up leftovers and make them delicious... Well, Li Can, I'm not talking about you."
"Hehehehehe." The younger brother Scout obviously didn't understand and scratched the back of his head and grinned foolishly.
"Besides, if you don't eat well, you will be in a bad mood. If you are in a bad mood, you will not be able to train well. If you don't train well, how can you play well in the competition?" Xing Dao complained.
"Don't mention it, it's true. I'll go take care of it." Abu happened to push the door open .
Heard the last part.
Think about it seriously.
The canteen situation really needs an upgrade.
Made the decision right away.
"Let's have a meeting after dinner. I think there are problems with the recent training."
Abu continued, "The new version has too many restrictions on the jungle and top lane, and we have to rely on double Cs. We are lacking in this aspect."
"If nothing unexpected happens, this situation will continue until MSI."
“We have to find a way to solve it.”
