The day after Summer and Mingkai played in double queue, relevant news quickly appeared in the Chinese e-sports self-media column.
[The mysterious passerby broke into the top 100 in the Chinese server in just one month! 】
[The passerby who was double queuing with pdd was actually the edg youth training mid laner, and he was double queuing with meiko on the trumpet late at night! 】
["Mika Jiang wants to play LPL" identity decrypted, or the next top domestic mid laner! 】
However, news that is purely passer-by without live streaming will never make waves in the e-sports industry in China. Even the news that the 15-year-old genius Jackey Love has entered the top ten of the national server king is placed more prominently on the website than these news.
Most people have read the news and just thought in their minds - "Oh, there is another young mid laner seed in LPL", or "This Mika is probably not the Mika from Japan, the marketing account is really good at setting the pace."
It’s gone.
Three more days passed.
On October 11th, the League of Legends S5 season was announced.
Mei Xia's ranking was finally fixed at 826 points, breaking into the top 30 in Ionia. The speed at which she increased her points at the end of the season was astonishing, but this time there was no relevant news in China.
No one paid attention to the news that the passerby king Dopa failed to reach the first place in both servers, and that the Korean server was surpassed by SKT's substitute Scout with over 100 ranking points.
What's more, her ID can only be seen after scrolling down two pages from the rankings.
The most popular discussion in the Chinese League of Legends community that day was probably the incident of the female gun on the May 5th settlement night...
Two days after the end of the season, Mixia received a call from team chairman Nobuyuki Umezaki.
We made an appointment for a training match before going to Australia for the All-Star Game. The opponent was the Lightning Huskies team in the LMS division.
It's nominally a training match.
But there is a gap in status between LJL and LMS divisions.
The competition is purely for the purpose of the FW team to support the LJL division, and to serve as a training partner for the five people who are about to participate in the All-Star Game——
How should I put it? When Umezaki Nobuyuki told Mika about the contact training match, how warm and friendly the leader of the Flash Wolves team was, the first word that came to her mind was "rare", but she, a Tokyo native, said such words , it feels a little weird...
In short, Meixia took this training match very seriously.
As a Chinese with a loyal heart for LPL, even if her external identity is different from the past, it is difficult for her to view the LMS team in a friendly manner.
Karsa avoids talking about the remarks that hurt the feelings of his compatriots. Maple turned around from LPL to Flash Wolves in embarrassment but turned to slander the LPL who signed him with a high salary. There is also someone who heard the RNG team's voiceover after the S10MSI game without playing. Ugly.
Although the few filthy things that Meixia knows about publicly cannot explain the true thoughts of the entire Flash Wolf team, one can understand from a glance that they are not the same group after all.
That day, she kicked her sister Lisa out of the room, closed the door, sat alone at the computer desk, and put on headphones.
Since each team can only be shortlisted for two people in the ljl national star competition, dfm only shortlisted mid laner Mei Xia and jungler Astarore.
Top laner evi and adc player mueki were selected from the 7t team, and assistant d4ra was from the ozr team.
In the entire team, Mixia and evi are the king players, and the rest may not even be at the level of masters in the Korean server.
Needless to say, the opponent in the training match is the Flash Wolves.
S5 World Championship quarterfinals.
Top laner mmd, jungler karsa, mid laner maple, adc player nl, and assistant swardart.
In the near future, these players will be well-known figures on the world stage of League of Legends. Swardart will be the runner-up in the world championship. Karsa has won the LPL championship many times and lifted the MSI championship with his own hands. Even the laggards MMD and NL in the team, He is also someone who can easily dominate the LMS division.
The training match ended in just two hours.
The hastily formed ljl all-star team failed.
Meixia stably gets at least two solo kills in every game, but her teammates die faster than she does!
At the end of the game, her teammates were unconscious and their mentality exploded. Even the training match had the opposite effect to the sparring match - the most confident combination of support and adc, Bronn Lucian, was killed online, and it was not until the third game. Even the operation started to change.
With the intermittently private Marseille apology sound in the earphones, Mei Xia prepared to close the Korean server client.
"Mixia, don't log out yet! It seems like you haven't touched the Korean server for half a month, and you haven't even had a chance to say hello in the game. Yuta-nii and Kyohei-nii happen to be here too, let's play and queue together!" Astarore said.
Yuta is DFM top laner Yutapon, Kyohei is the substitute mid laner Ceros, and the support player is a Korean aid, so he did not return to the team base at this time.
"Okay." Mixia agreed, "Maybe this is my farewell performance..."
Although they are very bad, Mei Xia has been very happy in the past six months in DFM - especially the feeling of killing professional players in the LJL Miscellaneous Fish Division is really great.
Four people entered the team, and Astarora invited evi, who had just played in the training match, to join the team. The five people were full and the group queue was started.
There were very few players in the group queue, so everyone didn’t care too much about the outcome. Instead, they chatted more on the voice channel like ordinary people playing black games.
What everyone is most concerned about is the details of Mei Xia's transfer.
Even without the personal feelings cultivated by working as colleagues for half a year, as players on the same team, they can also benefit from Mixia's advancement.
Meixia had already received a promise from Ming Kainari to try out the training, and her horoscope had changed. She had no reason to continue hiding her whereabouts.
When choosing a hero, faced with everyone’s questions, she replied, “I have indeed received a lot of invitations from North America, but what I am most seriously preparing for now is the LPL trial training - I haven’t played in the Korean server for half a month, just because I’ve been playing ranked there.”
"lpl?"
"Is the treatment there better than in North America?"
"The LPL competition is very stressful, most teams have two Korean players!"
Hearing Mixia's answer, his teammates were surprised at first.
Yupaton was the first to congratulate with a smile, "Mixia was actually able to receive an invitation from lpl. The requirements for strength there must be very high!
No wonder there were reports on the Internet that lpl invited mika. I thought it was fake news, but I didn’t expect that the lpl team actually invited her. I'm not saying anything disappointing in advance. Even if the Summer League LPL trial fails, your value will increase a lot! "
Jungler Astarora worried, "But over in China, the treatment and life are more difficult. Chinese characters are so complicated and difficult to learn, unlike English..."
Forehead……
Meixia doesn't care about the illiterate who failed the college entrance examination and can only make a living by playing games.
What, I didn’t go to college either? It's all the fault of Momotani Mikar, the first generation, and has nothing to do with me, Momotani Mikar, the second generation.
She explained truthfully, "We haven't started talking about the salary yet. It's just a trial training at the moment. The LPL team will have travel expenses, play a few training games in the team, and we will discuss the details after passing the trial training. If not, we will find another team."
Yupaton shouted, "I just got it! Mixia! I must enter next year's World Championship!"
Mixia replied, "Well, you have to become stronger next year in the World Championships. Don't be slaughtered by me and cry in tears!"
Ceros, who is accustomed to silence, said, "It's still the same as when I entered DFM. I don't know how to respect my seniors at all! There are geniuses everywhere after going abroad. It's ten times harder to advance to the world championship in lpl than in ljl. Don't go to a bigger stage." On the contrary, we didn’t even make it to the World Championship, so that’s a joke..."
…
As the crystal shatters.
Meixia ended the last game with her dfm teammates.
