Volume 2 Chapter 125: What’s the point of winning if the audience shouts out the opponent’s ID when you win?
The last time Xu Yuan appeared in an international competition, it was just the Brazilian brothers who gave him some cheers out of respect.
And this time, when he appeared in the Intercontinental Championship, there were real cheers from fans in the audience.
"Savior! Savior! Savior!"
"Xu Yuan! Xu Yuan! Xu Yuan!"
"Come on Xu Yuan!!"
The LMS audience in the audience was very enthusiastic.
In the MSI that ended not long ago, Xu Yuan's performance was truly outstanding.
It's almost like one person dragged EDG to defeat a strong enemy like SKT!
In LMS, which was deeply influenced by Western ideas, his reputation naturally became famous immediately.
People always like to watch the weak defeat the strong, and always like to watch games with great personal heroism.
This is a fact that cannot be changed.
And just as expected, Xu Yuan did it.
So now he has a terrifying number of fans in Europe and the United States, and even regions like LMS highly respect him.
It's not based on anyone's marketing, nor is it based on any bragging in an interview.
There is only one thing to rely on: hard power!
It was completely the recognition that Xu Yuan earned through his own performance.
So he didn't find it strange at all.
Under the lights, the handsome boy closed his eyes slightly, walked towards the stage with his arms open, enjoying the cheers of the moment.
"Wow……"
Colonel Guan looked at this scene and couldn't help but speak.
"Savior is really confident now!"
The fact that he dared to make such a move was enough to show that he was determined to win.
The cheers from the audience below became louder and louder.
Gou Chui, who was watching the game at home, was almost fainted from anger.
"No, what is he pretending to be?"
"It doesn't fit in with our traditional modesty style at all. It looks a bit disgusting."
What shocked Gouchui the most was that although Uzi was also cheered when he came on stage, the voices were obviously much lower than Xu Yuan's.
They are not on the same level at all.
How could they bear this?
For so long, we have been bragging that “foreign fans all recognize Uzi.”
As a result, the cheers now are not as loud as those for a player who has just played for half a year.
Isn't this a clown?
They can't accept it!
"Such a cool way to make an appearance, but you didn't listen to me. I can only say that you have very poor manners."
Xu Yuan came to his teammates and spoke in a low voice with some regret.
He had discussed this with his teammates backstage, and this time everyone did this move together.
As a result, everyone walked like they were showing off, and no one was willing to do it.
Xu Yuan was very puzzled.
Is it true that everyone is timid and shy?
Mingkai is also quite flirty in private!
"hehe."
Mingkai was too lazy to pay attention and sneered.
Mingkai would never do such a stupid thing!
After the debut ceremony, the first game of the Intercontinental Championship will naturally begin, the match between JT and SSG.
The LPL players returned to the locker room and sat together in groups of three or four.
This is when your network of contacts comes into play.
But for Uzi...
The situation is a bit awkward.
Because Xiao Ming had already touched Xu Yuan's side, and was looking at him and saying something happily.
Mala Xiangguo was discussing the jungle route with Mingkai, while Xiaohu and A Guang were talking about something and laughing.
Only letme and Zizi were sitting next to him, and no one spoke to him.
Although Uzi didn't care about this, he still felt a little weird when he saw the crowd of people around Xu Yuan and then looked at the two or three kittens beside him.
Is it possible that my popularity is really bad?
Uzi bit his lip, lost in thought.
In fact, this was a misunderstanding on Uzi's part.
It’s not that everyone has a problem with him, it’s just that they just don’t dare to look for him.
On the one hand, Uzi is a genuine veteran star player who doesn’t socialize much, and people who are not familiar with him would feel embarrassed to visit him.
On the other hand, it is said that Uzi has a very bad temper sometimes. If a quarrel breaks out and the news gets out, then Uzi’s fans will charge directly. What should we do?
Not everyone can gain fans as fast as Xu Yuan.
Not every contestant’s fan club can have the same strong organizational and combat capabilities as Yuan Za.
Fortunately, this awkward atmosphere dissipated with the playing of the promotional video clips shot before the game.
Uzi was concentrating and looking at the big screen seriously.
Under an overpass, Chidi looked into the distance with a calm expression, and the voice-over was what he said before the game.
"For SSG, beating EDG is our goal in this Intercontinental Championship."
"SKT lost to EDG, so if we beat EDG, it means SSG is better than SKT, right?"
"Of course, winning the division championship is still our primary goal, and we are confident that no one can stop us."
Strictly speaking, this statement is a bit exaggerated.
After all, everyone is playing in the Intercontinental Championship now. Do you think SSG is better than SKT?
What is your purpose?
Who sent you?
Don’t say anything that is not conducive to unity!
But for SSG...
Damn it, our SSG was defeated by you SKT in the spring season.
If you go to MSI now and get beaten to death by others, we at SSG will just have to laugh.
It seems! It seems meow!
The one who didn't even feel sad for a moment about SKT's fall and immediately rushed to the Intercontinental Championship was SSG!
Chidi added at the end that at least there was no problem on the situation.
"Both LPL and LCK are very strong, but we think we are also very strong. Whether we win or lose, we will not let them win easily."
The person who said this was, of course, Kasa.
As the current wolf king of Flash Wolves, Karsa has absolute status in LMS.
After all, when LPL was vulnerable in the face of LCK, FW at least won the group stage, and the win was not particularly small.
"Fuck! Can Ka-ge speak a little more confidently? We really want to win the championship!"
"Yes, and I think LPL's No. 2, 3, and 4 may not be able to beat us!"
"JT is going to slap them in the face real quick. I'm so excited just thinking about it!"
Karsa may think that what he said was very radical, but the LMS audience just thought he was too conservative.
After Karsa, it is naturally the current LPL players:
Xu Yuan!
"I said last time that I would kill all the Korean teams. Now it's obviously another chance. Is the first target SSG?"
In the camera, Xu Yuan was sitting on the steps, his hands crossed on his legs, looking down at the camera indifferently.
"It doesn't matter."
“It doesn’t matter who comes.”
The confidence in his tone was soaring into the sky, and it instantly excited the LPL audience.
"I'm awesome! I'm awesome! Master Yuan, he's so confident!"
"This is the confidence that a championship team should have!"
"It doesn't matter who comes! This is the confidence that Yuan Shen brings me!"
At the commentary desk, Guan Zeyuan touched his arm and spoke with a smile.
"Oh my god, Savior is so confident and domineering. I'm getting goose bumps right now!"
Colonel Guan likes to be crazy.
He really likes players who dare to go crazy especially in foreign wars.
Although SSG has his favorite Crown brother, but now that he is the commentator, he naturally stands on the side of LPL.
This is also basic professional ethics.
Colonel Guan is quite clear about this point.
At this time in the SSG team, Chi Di's face was extremely serious, and he looked silently at Xu Yuan's condescending eyes on the screen.
"Don't let anything unexpected happen this time. I don't want to see the bottom lane collapse. Do you hear me?"
The devilish voice of Sect Leader An sounded in Chidi's ears. Chidi couldn't help swallowing his saliva and nodded seriously.
Savior...?
It was like a huge mountain standing before his eyes, and the pressure made Emperor Chi feel a little breathless.
It’s not that he is not confident enough, it’s that Xu Yuan’s record is too exaggerated.
He won against Uzi as soon as he debuted and has never lost to Uzi since then.
For Chidi, Uzi is an AD player that he admires very much and thinks is very strong.
However, Xu Yuan even killed Uzi on the slash line!
At MSI, every team fight was a pleasure to watch, and there were no flaws to be found.
Textbook-level team battle handling!
This is Emperor Chi’s deepest impression of Xu Yuan.
Even Bang couldn’t defeat Xu Yuan, can I?
Chidi is not very confident.
Today, he is not yet the high-spirited S7 world champion AD, let alone a FMVP player.
Those who have watched the S6 World Championship should know that in the S6 World Championship, the most carry for SSG was the mid laner, and Chidi became the breakthrough point for the team more often.
Speaking of which, SSG’s mid laner Crown is really unlucky.
In S6, his C performance was extremely impressive.
But Chidi was born and lost the game.
In S7, due to the version reasons, heroes like Grasshopper in the mid lane would be more effective for SSG, so Crown was determined to tie the opposing Faker to the middle lane.
He did it, but he looked particularly messed up in S7.
So much so that even if he won the S7 world championship.
At that time, everyone off the court was calling out for one ID because Faker was crying:
Faker!
Those who don’t know would think that the S7 world champion is SKT.
Until his retirement, the label of "loser" seemed to haunt Crown like a nightmare.
It can even be said that he has no popularity at all.
After retiring, there were only about a hundred viewers in the live broadcast room.
So much so that when another World Championship came, Crown couldn't help but cry with joy because of the increase in the number of people in the live broadcast room.
"Thank you for watching my live broadcast! I really appreciate it!"
Maybe when he won the world championship, his mentality had already collapsed as people off the court were calling out his opponent's ID.
Winning the championship doesn't prove that I am the stronger one.
Then what should I do...?
The current Chidi is in a superposition state of birth and human beings.
He doesn't even dare to say that he is sure of winning!
How can we say that we have enough confidence when facing the aggressive Xu Yuan?
"I have to win no matter what!"
Chidi encouraged himself in his heart.
Because he can't afford the cost of failure!
When he thought of the scene when Sect Leader An got angry, Emperor Chi couldn't help but tremble slightly.
He is the youngest player in Samsung now, and naturally he is also the biggest victim of the unspoken rules among his seniors and juniors in Korea.
Rookie once said during his live broadcast:
"In Korea, if you are older than me, I have to kneel down for you."
So one can imagine the current situation of the Chi Emperor.
If Master An wasn't the only one who liked to put pressure on him, he would have collapsed long ago.
And in countless late nights, Chidi was thinking:
If one day I could become the big brother of the team...
I must let the newcomers have a taste of this feeling too!
This is how I was oppressed, so why should I be friendly to newcomers ?
"How are you?"
The support corejj patted the gloomy-looking Chidi with some concern.
Chidi came back to his senses and gave a somewhat forced smile.
"It's okay. I'm fine."
corejj stopped talking and wondered when he was going to talk to Master An.
Keeping putting pressure on the ruler like this will only make people become extreme.
The first BO1 officially begins.
JT vs. SSG!
Chidi, who was ready for battle, took a deep breath and walked onto the field.
At this moment, everyone in the LPL lounge was watching intently.
What is SSG’s foreign combat capability?
One JT definitely cannot give you the full picture, they are not a team of the same level.
But not necessarily, after all, it is BO1.
There are also many teams that have failed.
And even though SSG crushed them the entire time, this game gave us some insight into SSG's eye placement habits.
This is very important information.
At this time, Abu was attacking the current RNG coach Feng Ge.
"Why didn't you answer the phone?"
"Neither in the morning nor in the evening, what's going on?"
His tone was very dissatisfied.
The incense burner system can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction attack against the current popular system.
But Brother Feng did not answer the phone, so after arriving here, several coaches hurriedly held a small meeting to discuss tactics.
Time is very tight.
Faced with Abu's questioning, Feng Ge also had a lot of grievances.
To be honest, if Abu called him, he would definitely want to answer the phone.
But the boss won’t let me!
I don’t even want to play against EDG in a training match.
"It doesn't matter whether we win the Intercontinental Championship or not, because even if we win, EDG will get the traffic, it has nothing to do with us!"
"Hide our system and don't let them analyze it thoroughly!"
"Don't even play a training match with them!"
Thinking back to what his boss told him before he came here, Brother Feng felt so embarrassed.
Abu was so frank in telling RNG about the killer system of the Censer, and it can be said that he really did not keep anything to himself.
However, RNG couldn't even play training games with their brothers.
Even Feng Ge himself thinks that RNG is a bit ungrateful.
But he is just a coach, a coach whose salary has been delayed by his boss.
What can he do?
He is also desperate!
Looking at Brother Feng who was hesitating, Abu felt a little nervous.
The army is approaching, why are you not even willing to ask for help?
The game on the screen ended very quickly, and SSG almost shut out JT.
It's definitely not a team of the same level.
The second game between MVP and OMG was much more ups and downs.
There is actually not much difference in strength between the two teams, with OMG having a slight advantage.
In the early stages, OMG's relatively stronger double C helped them gain a good advantage.
However, in the mid-term, the operational disadvantages became apparent.
If Leng Shao's Ahri hadn't completed an amazing double kill and escape in the mid-game, OMG's rhythm would have collapsed.
However, it was also because of this wave that Sima Laozei's equipment was upgraded to the key three-piece set, which melted the MVP in the team battle.
Get off to a good start!
"It's our turn."
Xu Yuan stood up suddenly, his eyes clear.
The brothers have already taken the first one.
SSG, I’m sorry.
We can't let down the chain!
