However, all these sniper attacks were blocked by Xu Yuan.

Because the spring season is about to begin, he needs to start participating in training games.

Hanbok? What the hell.

March 16th.

This is the day when Xu Yuan appears!

Zet seemed not to be affected by the news at all, because he was already prepared to fight as long as he could.

The relationship with Xu Yuan naturally remains the same.

Instead, iboy was greatly stimulated.

After he had settled down completely, his training became much more diligent.

iboy boasts that he is no inferior to others in his life.

As long as you practice hard, opportunities will always come.

After all, everyone will have problems someday. No matter how good you are at fighting, Xu Yuan, can you never make mistakes as a newcomer?

On January 20th, EDG's first game started.

The opponent is VG, the team that includes the legendary duo of Houye Easyhoon and Lee Sang-hyeok's Bengi.

After finishing the BP, Abu returned to the lounge and nodded secretly at Xu Yuan who was staring at the screen seriously.

No matter if he was just pretending or was really serious, at least Abu liked his current state.

“It’s very nice.”

"There is a huge difference between professional thinking and rank. If you don't want to make mistakes in this regard, you must find a way to understand the game."

“Although Zet’s ceiling is not high, he still plays a very good role in strengthening your professional thinking.”

Abu spoke calmly.

Since you have chosen to bet on Xu Yuan, then you will not regret it.

Abu will do his best to make him grow up quickly.

As for zet?

It would be nice to be Xu Yuan’s first study object.

At that time, the LPL rarely cut the camera to the locker room, so Abu spoke very strictly, and from time to time asked Xu Yuan how he wanted to deal with the same situation, without showing any mercy at all.

If someone else came here, they would probably be humiliated. After all, no one could stand being scolded by the coach for two consecutive games for a full hour and a half.

However, Jiang Wen once said that Xu Yuan is not an ordinary person.

There was a gleam in his eyes, and he absorbed Abu's teachings almost eagerly.

Many people think that EDG’s dominance may decline after losing its two big guys in the middle and bottom lanes, but they are totally wrong.

EDG, which is vulnerable to the Korean team, can also roam around freely in the LPL.

In this era, as almost the only team in LPL where the coach can do something, EDG's training team is a dimensionality reduction attack on other teams.

Abu had never felt so refreshed.

He unreservedly instilled his understanding of the game into Xu Yuan, and meticulously corrected some of Xu Yuan's still existing rank habits.

Xu Yuan’s feedback to him was just as quick.

At this time, Xu Yuan's talent was already above that of most professional players, and he could understand everything at once.

And because he has experience in watching countless versions of the game, he can occasionally say something that makes Abdu think deeply.

One enjoys teaching, the other enjoys learning.

This is a total win-win situation!

iboy just kept watching silently, trying to put himself into zet's shoes.

As for Abu’s teachings?

To be honest, iboy still believes more in his own abilities.

With MingKai returning with a relaxed smile, EDG got off to a good start in the spring season, defeating VG 2-0.

"Did you learn anything?"

He patted Xu Yuan.

"Um!"

Xu Yuan smiled very happily.

"Is this a formal competition? It's really interesting."

"Yes, adapt to this atmosphere as soon as possible. You don't have much time left."

Mingkai sighed imperceptibly.

Zet, it is indeed... not very good.

Although there was no problem in the laning phase, the AD of VG on the other side was not a strong enemy.

It can only be described as a fight between two noobs.

Abu did not stop his rote learning of Xu Yuan.

Because time is really tight now.

Xu Yuan must grow up quickly enough to take on the role of EDG's starting player.

Thanks to the trait [Hi, I am AD], a lot of recovery ability is provided.

Otherwise, Xu Yuan would not have received so much information in such a short time.

Even if it doesn't cause brain overload, it will at least make you dizzy.

Xu Yuan could only silently thank the owner of this joke in his heart:

Dear Source,

If I have the chance to meet you, I will definitely bring you a bag of Huazi.

The reformists are not even good enough and are harming traditional cigarettes!

However, there are more and more speculations about him on the Internet.

Because the audience is so curious about what kind of contestant this contestant named Xu Yuan is.

Now, besides knowing that Xu Yuan's name is Xu Yuan, they also know that he has beautiful hands and a nice voice.

Nothing else was gained.

However, such a seemingly ordinary player is related to the rhythm of every match during this period.

He was the successor to Deft chosen by EDG, which directly led to the distrust and tower rush of the original EDG fans.

He also said during the live broadcast that his idol was Bang, which triggered an epic battle between the fans and haters that lasted until the entire avenue was wiped out.

Even when he encountered the characteristics of Korean clothes, he reacted quickly and directly insulted those impolite Koreans.

Such a contestant gives people a feeling of... being very novel.

In the past, professional players would at most appear on the stage with the halo of a talented player.

This person seems to always be in the center of every storm, yet he manages to remain unscathed.

One hundred percent participation, right?

As the competition progressed, EDG fans began to change their attitudes.

Damn, this zet is really a bit lame.

Although everyone understands the truth, as a mid laner switched to AD, we really can't expect too much from you.

But even if EDG fans lower their expectations for zet, the gap between him and deft is still visible to the naked eye.

Especially with the support of Scout, the new mid laner who has inherited Pawn's tactical position and has become the core of the team.

Zet seems increasingly unqualified.

How can we defeat EDG with such a worm AD?

This has always been the tradition in CN.

When EDG directly said that they wanted to replace Xu Yuan, fans might not agree.

But after EDG let zet play a few games, the fans agreed to replace Xu Yuan.

Fans who were originally targeting Xu Yuan, instead began to look forward to Xu Yuan.

Come out my Xu Yuan, my proudest belief!

EDG also contacted Deft urgently and filmed a promotional video after obtaining his consent.

EDG’s emphasis on Xu Yuan is already exaggerated.

Because they are confident that Xu Yuan will be the successor of Deft!

March 14th, White Valentine's Day.

In the entertainment room.

Xu Yuan obediently followed Ming Kai and sat in front of the screen. His whole person can be described in two words: well-behaved.

"After we finish watching it, this promotional video will be released, and then the official Weibo account will officially release your makeup photos and basic information. This also means that you have officially become a professional player."

"In the future, keep working harder."

Mingkai looked at the well-behaved boy beside him and had a lot to say.

He wanted Xu Yuan to live up to everyone's expectations, but he was afraid of putting too much pressure on Xu Yuan.

So in the end he chose the simplest one.

"Yeah, I know, Kai."

Xu Yuan spoke softly.

Humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless?

Even coming to EDG at the beginning was just a choice driven by interests for Xu Yuan.

However, after spending a few months together, he has developed feelings for the EDG players.

Of course, it’s friendship.

"Okay, let's get started."

Abu also smiled, which was rare for him, and clapped his hands.

Sat next to Mingkai.

The promotional video begins playing.

As a hand adjusting shoelaces appeared in front of the camera, Xu Yuan recognized it was his own.

It's a strange feeling.

As he slowly adjusted his clothes, bursts of commentary gradually appeared in the voice-over.

"EDG, we won another game today!"

"It's incredible that EDG can achieve such a brilliant result in their first season!"

"The winner is EDG! They will represent LPL in this year's World Championship!"

The camera moves and someone walks in from the door.

Deft, wearing the EDG team uniform, walked up to the owner of the hand.

It was at this time that the voice of the narration in the voice-over became increasingly louder.

"Let us congratulate EDG!"

"So what if it's SKT? We are playing against SKT!"

"The final winner of MSI 2015 is EDG!"

Deft spoke softly with a smile on his face.

"From now on, I'll leave it to you."

He took off his team uniform reluctantly and put it on the player carefully.

This scene seems like the handover of an era.

Deft was smiling, and Xu Yuan looked high-spirited.

The BGM "Flash Funk" suddenly sounded.

Wave after wave of rhythmic electronic music is passionate and enthusiastic. In the beating notes, it seems that you can see the contestants embarking on their journey.

"Um."

A clear and powerful boy's voice rang out.

As the camera moved, Xu Yuan's face appeared in the camera for the first time.

Although his hair was a little messy, it made him look more elegant.

His eyes were calm and bright, and his handsome face showed only seriousness and earnestness.

Xu Yuan meticulously put on the team uniform that Deft had given him.

Open the door.

Behind him in the shot is an ID that EDG fans have never seen before:

【Savior】

As his figure disappeared from the camera, the screen fell into black.

At the last moment before the promotional video was about to end, a passage appeared in the camera.

[A new era is coming]

Then, it gradually disappeared.

This is the end of the promotional video.

Xu Yuan opened his mouth slightly in surprise and touched his arm.

" Goosebumps ."

So handsome?

Xu Yuan knew that he wasn’t bad looking, but he looked so damn handsome in this promotional video!

But he has little education, so he can only say "I'll go around the world".

Tian Ye clapped happily, "How handsome Xu Yuan, you took such a good photo?"

Mingkai nodded in agreement, with a smug look on his face.

My younger brother just makes me proud!

"Is everything all right?"

"We specially invited Yicun, the official photographer of LPL, to help us this time. The quality is absolutely guaranteed."

Abu smiled and said, "Since everyone thinks it's okay, then send it out."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, EDG’s official Weibo account posted a message.

EDG Esports Club:

[EDG Esports Club Announcement]

"After careful and thorough consideration, we are pleased to announce that AD player Savior (Xu Yuan) has been promoted to the first team and will officially become EDG's starting AD player from today. The original starting player Zet has been demoted to the second team."

"Savior has shown outstanding talent since joining EDG. We have enough trust in him and firmly believe that he can become the pillar and future of the new generation of EDG."

"The silver saddle shines on the white horse, which gallops like a shooting star!"

"Welcome, EDG.Savior."

Next, of course, are the final makeup photos.

In the accompanying picture, Xu Yuan, wearing the EDG team uniform, smiles brightly.

There is a kind of innocence that has not been polluted by knowledge.

He stood straight, put his hands on his chest, and made a heart shape with his hands.

The whole person gives people the feeling that... he is very non-aggressive.

EDG fans, who already had little ill feelings towards Xu Yuan, also began to accept Xu Yuan as a member of EDG.

With the release of the promotional video, the name Xu Yuan directly became a hot search, making countless sisters and sisters on Weibo dazzled.

The new generation of top traffic players can gradually be seen taking shape.

Amid the malicious waiting of other clubs and the anticipation of fans and passers-by, two days passed quickly.

The night before the game, EDG released the roster for the match against OMG on March 16th.
