In the next few days, edg basically stayed in the hotel to play ranked games and training matches. For meals, he would take the elevator directly to eat at the hotel’s buffet.
But even so, you still have the opportunity to see the simple folk customs of South America.
Everyone wanted to change their taste, so they asked Ai Luoli, who had been idle to take photos and travel, to run errands to find nearby Chinese restaurants to pack Chinese food and bring it back to the hotel.
During this trip, he was unlucky enough to bump into a thief and lose hundreds of pocket money that he had redeemed in advance for his trip to Brazil.
"This Mika's bodyguard is unqualified. He can be stolen." In the past few days, Ai Luoli has been treating herself as Sakura Girl's personal bodyguard, but apart from accompanying Sakura Girl downstairs to eat and walking near the hotel, she has done nothing but Basically, there was nothing to do. In my free time, I just went out shopping and took pictures, which made meiko and others jealous. At this time, I finally had something to talk about.
"Hey, this is the money I lost because I went out to get takeout for you. This should be considered a work-related injury!" Ai Luoli bit back, "Ahem, how about each of us chip in a few dozen yuan to compensate?"
As soon as these words came out, several people immediately turned back to their chairs and continued to rank up, pretending not to hear.
"Hey! There's a queue!"
"My game has started too."
"What's wrong with this Chinese food?"
Meixia was kind enough, so she reached into her wallet and took out a few bills and handed them over.
But how dare Loli accept it?
"No, no, I'm just kidding!"
"Hey, I'll give it to you anyway!" Mixia said stubbornly, just to see Ai Luoli's reaction.
"No, how can I accept this... Let's do this, Mika, you don't have to go to the buffet these days, I'll go to a Chinese restaurant outside and bring you one every day!" Ai Luoli had no choice but to accept it and said.
"Hey, it's too much trouble!" Mixia said
"I'm a bodyguard now! Bringing lunch is part of my job!" Ai Luoli said proudly.
"Then it's still too much trouble to keep traveling so far. I can also eat barbecue and scones!" Mixia had already started ordering food.
In this way, the undercurrent of training continued until May 9th.
The group stage will begin in two days, and Riot Games sent word that team members are required to participate in the filming of a promotional video.
Of course, the ones named by edg will only be the mid laner and jungler.
Meixia went with the factory director.
This time Riot Games was more attentive in the Brazilian Mid-Season Championship than last year's championship. After all, there was no play-in last time, and the promotional video was just a simple CG production.
However, compared to the 2016 World Championship, which took an entire afternoon to film just the group stage promotional video, from the San Francisco Bridge to the Bill Greer Municipal Auditorium, the investment in manpower and material resources is still a level lower.
This time the promotional video for the group stage was only recorded in a studio.
Outside the studio, Miha met with SKT midfielder, g2 midfielder, and tsm midfielder and other players one by one.
As the current number one mid laner in the world and a super-beautiful player, Meixia was undoubtedly the first choice for everyone except Faker, who was unmoved by the fierce look in his eyes.
The second candidate for the group photo was the second mid laner in the world who had the exact opposite expression to the smiling Sakura girl throughout the whole process.
Even before entering the studio, Mixia's whole body was photographed, which made her hands feel sore compared to the "yes" gesture.
It’s hard to be a Sakura girl who always brings positive energy to others, isn’t it? For example, Faker just gives a thumbs up to his chest with a bitter look, which is much easier than him who always raises the gesture to the side of his head!
Then I entered the room and simply recorded my pre-game thoughts. The time I spent in front of the camera was shorter than the time I spent waiting.
"Eh... before this, only the edg team had won the Mid-Season Championship trophy, and this time I think there should be no other team that has a chance to win it in our hands."
"Brazilian barbecue is delicious. I haven't thought too much about the game these days. I just taste the surrounding food. So far, the barbecue burrito on the first day is still the best. I don't know if I will finish the championship game." Are there any other options?"
Miha is familiar with pre-match feelings.
When she said this, she was no longer thinking about winning the championship, but like a student who was wandering around after class, thinking about what to eat for lunch and dinner.
Faker's words later were, "I will definitely win the championship for lck this time."
perkz said, "I want to prove that I am the world's best mid laner."
The bearded Bilson said, "We have gone from the qualifying rounds to here, and we don't want to stop in the group stage!"
Most of these pre-game speeches were filled with a strong desire to defeat someone and to prove themselves, which was in stark contrast to Mixia's remarks where she downplayed and even started to discuss local food.
This pre-match promotional video was officially released by Riot Games on its homepage that day.
Audiences in China, South Korea, Europe and the United States aroused intense discussion about Sakura Girl's always natural but extremely arrogant rhetoric.
[This girl is so arrogant! 】
[But I have to say that edg has won the Mid-Season Championship twice in a row. If it successfully defends the title again this year, it will be an unprecedented three consecutive world-class championships! 】
[Can they achieve a feat that even faker can't do? 】
【Faker? It’s long out of date. Didn’t you watch the game last year when Sakura girl defeated the entire SKT team by herself? ! 】
[One thing to say is that this year, SKT introduced Paantu, which greatly strengthened it. Not only did EDG leave the core Deft, but the jungler also hired SKT's unreliable substitute. The strength dropped significantly. This MSI will definitely not be as easy as Mika showed. 】
More than just a promotional video.
As photos of Mixia and Faker taking photos with the players were leaked.
On one side is the innocent Sakura girl with a sweet smile, and on the other side is the man with glasses with a frosty face. The contrast is also full, and they are incompatible with each other.
[Faker: Irritable business trip
mika:Happy holiday trip]
[faker: Damn you are all enemies! mika: Oh my God, are you all my fans? 】
[Faker: Hurry and finish the filming, I have to go back to the rankings. mika: Do you want to take one more photo? 】
[Mika and Faker are like Naruto and Sasuke in the League of Legends]
Fans even began to read and write comments on these group photos, and many photoshopped meme pictures spread.
Even the local atmosphere in Brazil, which was slightly cold due to the local team red's defeat in the qualifying round, was quickly ignited.
Under Riot Brazil’s official account, locals recommend food and attractions, and Sakura Girl is invited to go there after the game.
Meixia herself also took the time to interact with the audience below. The number of followers on her Twitter account has soared by tens of thousands in just the past few hours, and has soared towards 5 million followers.
The competition between LPL and LCK was already heated due to the Aable ban incident. A few days before the official opening of MSI, it once again added fuel to the fire!
