Chapter 818 Times have changed... but not completely!
Tons of tons of tons of tons--
Faker picked up the cup on the table and drank the Bacchu energy drink in it.
After repeated failures, and not even making it to the World Championship this year, Faker can accept the outcome of failure relatively calmly.
However.
The cheers that penetrated the soundproof headphones were so harsh.
Six years ago.
This kind of sound will arouse Faker's fighting spirit.
Five years ago, when he was using his favorite hero, Shadow Lord, and with his last bit of health he said to his teammates, "No need for support, I can kill alone," three seconds later, Faker knew that this cheer belonged to him from then on.
To this day .
There was no change in the sound.
But Faker's mentality is completely different from before.
Faker glanced at the audience waving cheering sticks and fluorescent boards, and was no longer immersed in the noise that once intoxicated him.
I just think they are noisy.
“Got it!”
Miller's voice was filled with excitement as he was on the commentary stage: "General was replaced by the fountain after killing Gnar, and the kill went to Karma, but it doesn't matter, the remaining four teammates can be destroyed!"
Flying axes, battle blades, mechanical parts, and dark energy took turns smashing onto the buildings.
With the second explosion, the last line of defense in front of the LCK main base disappeared.
The giant crystal was destroyed.
The picture then froze.
“Congratulations to LPL!”
In the LPL commentary booth, Miller, Xiaosan and Rita said in unison.
Pastrytime, a well-known North American commentator at the Las Vegas E-sports Arena, started to praise the team like a little fan: "The SKT and Samsung Ten that emerged out of nowhere won three World Finals championships with irresistible Korean-style operations."
"And today, the top players in the LPL region sit on the throne of personal ability, laughing at the incompetence of the operations that the LCK is so proud of!"
"From fighting alone to three people forming a group, and then to a hundred flowers blooming."
"Under General's leadership and influence, the LPL region overthrew its former overlord and stood at the top of the world."
“Times have changed!”
This is an all-star entertainment game.
But it’s more than just an all-star entertainment game.
In order to win, LCK did not even send the support god Madlife to the field, in order to let Shy, who once defeated four PDDs with one shot, withstand the pressure as much as possible and drag the game to the point where the main players can step up and carry the game.
But.
Not only Shy exploded.
The jungle, mid lane, and bottom lane, all exploded!
This result made the LCK audience, who were holding on to a little hope, feel disheartened.
It was a counter-version game, and he even just randomly picked out a swordsman and easily defeated everyone on the field. What else is there to say?
Are you not taking the entertainment game seriously?
What good would it matter if I took it seriously after being killed like this by the Sword Master?
Originally, the Solo final was the final highlight.
Logically speaking, a match determined by pure individual ability would be more interesting than the China-South Korea confrontation where only three active professional players can be involved.
But after this double five-kill massacre.
The Solo finals became boring.
And no one believed that Caps could win, even though Caps had just defeated Faker.
really.
Although Caps has good attainments on melee heroes.
In front of Xing Dao, he was still too immature.
In the first game, Caps chose Aatrox first, but was defeated by Xing Dao with Yasuo.
In the second game, Xing Dao picked Riven first, and Caps, who didn't believe in evil, chose Aatrox again... The result was no surprise, he died even more miserably than in the previous game.
“Awesome!”
"Brother Jie's hero pool is bottomless."
"It's a pity that the factory director didn't come. If he had, wouldn't it be eight strokes per word and eight championships in one year?"
"What will the factory manager use when he comes? Ball-shaped Lee Sin?"
"What the hell is a ball-form blind monk, hahahahaha."
"This name was given by Brother Jie. Nine blind monks and one ball."
"Fuck, grab the bamboo shoots!"
"He is indeed the official certified anti-fan leader."
“…”
The final battle is over.
There were cheerful discussions on the barrage.
The confrontation between China and South Korea was won by a crushing force.
Win the championship in 1v1 mode.
The LPL players who went on the expedition added the perfect final touch to the answer sheet of these three years.
…
"oh--"
"Cool!"
"Too exciting!"
After the game.
The group took a helicopter tour of the Red Rock Canyon, hiked through the Mob Museum, and then went to the Exotics Racing Experience Hall 20 minutes away from the city to experience the joy of driving a top supercar.
Unfortunately, the highest temperature in Las Vegas in December is only around 10 degrees.
When you go to Pearl Island, you can only enjoy the sun and the beach, but you can't surf.
We traveled for two full days.
Take a plane back to Shanghai and return to their respective clubs.
December 18th.
The LPL transfer period, or the breath-holding competition, that the whole world is watching, has finally come to the surface.
Starting from the afternoon.
The latest lists of major clubs have been announced.
The original IG team remains unchanged, and head coach Kim Jeong-soo has transferred to the LCK's DWG team.
The original RNG team remained unchanged, and jungler S1xu and AD player Wink were promoted from the second team.
JDG bought the Vietnamese monk Levi from North America, the jungler Sunfu from RW, and the AD player Bvoy from YM, and traded three players, Clid, LokeN, and RD, to SKT, TOP, and LGD.
LGD, which helps strong teams find problems and weak teams find confidence, has made some drastic adjustments. Almost all of the original players have become free agents, leaving only mid laner Yuuki, death god Hirano Aya and jungle king Eimy... However, the first one is easy to explain, but the second two are really confusing.
As a new team, BLG's performance in the S8 season was acceptable. They introduced some experienced Korean players to guide the new players and did not seem to have particularly high aspirations.
Snake's original crew remains unchanged.
While keeping the original team, WE held a lottery for four new players and demoted the fat rat Imp to the trainee list.
The more eye-catching thing is that the FPX team spent nearly 20 million to buy Doinb from the RW team, and he partnered with top laner GimGoon, jungler Tian, AD Lin Weixiang, and support Liu Qingsong.
"Where is Brother Jie? I can't find him."
"He's not on any of the major team rosters. Could it be that Brother Jie has transferred to another region?"
"No way. Now that the salary cap is in place, the pay is pretty much the same no matter which region you go to."
"The EDG roster hasn't been released yet. Will Brother Jie still stay in EDG?"
"How can we keep him? Factory Manager, Wangzai, Jack, Meikou, and Jiejie haven't been transferred out yet. How can EDG afford to keep Jiejie?"
"Anyway, Jay definitely didn't go to LCK, nor did he go to North America. I don't know about Europe."
“…”
The heated discussion continued until 8:30 in the evening.
Having whetted everyone's appetite and continued to stir up the heat, EDG finally announced its lineup for the S9 season.
Top laner: 369 ( transferred from LDL-KOF team)
Jungler: Jiejie.
Mid: Xiye
AD: Jackeylove
Support: Meiko
Apart from the newcomers, the worst achievement for other players is world champion, and the best is the ultimate achievement of three consecutive championships + super grand slam.
Logically speaking, throwing any one of them out would cause quite a stir.
But at this time, all of them were covered by the IDs in the substitute list.
——There are only two players on EDG’s substitute list.
The first one is Clearlove!
The second one is...General!
