20:23, backstage at Supermarket Plaza.
At this moment, all WE players and coaches have left the lounge and are waiting in the aisle to the competition stage.
As a coach, Hongmi glanced down at the time on his watch from time to time, then looked up at the end of the aisle.
Even if no sound is made.
Others could also see the obvious anxiety in his eyes.
Just when Hongmi looked down at his watch for the fifth time, a tall and thin figure walked out of the corner of the backstage corridor.
He had messy hair, a backpack on one shoulder, and waved hello to them with a playful smile.
However, the Hongmi coach, who has always been strict in management, did not blame him for this.
Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly stepped forward and held Xu Yang's shoulders, and then asked the translator next to him to help explain:
"Huh, Xu Yang, we don't have much time to explain now, so I won't go into details about the operational tactics. You will prepare to replace the top lane position later."
"And I only have one request, hold on steady."
"Can it be done?"
"No problem, I play very steadily."
Xu Yang smiled and nodded.
After hearing this answer, Hongmi showed a satisfied smile on his face and quickly asked the players to prepare for the third game.
Based on the judgment before the game and the first two games.
NB's Skye on the top lane is not very strong. He is also a player who has played in 2015, but was not strong enough and took a year off.
It shouldn't be a big problem if Xu Yang stabilizes his line later.
Just when he was predicting the results of some games in his mind, the Redmi coach suddenly noticed that Xu Yang was not wearing a team uniform.
Look around quickly.
Then he shouted to Zero standing at the back:
"Jing Xie, Xu Yang didn't bring his team uniform. Please lend him your coat."
"OK, all right."
Zero has no opinion on this either.
He immediately took off his WE uniform jacket and handed it to Xu Yang.
Due to the difference in body size between the two, when he put it on, everyone found that the uniform seemed to be one size too small.
Forced.
I could only wear it without zipping it up.
At this time, the competition team members came over to urge everyone in WE to prepare to go on stage.
It’s hard for Hongmi to delay any longer at this time.
We can only bring the players to the stage first, and save the rest for the BP stage.
"..."
Xu Yang quickly followed the team.
Before he had walked a few steps, Xiye who was walking in front quietly slipped behind and asked him in a low voice:
"Xu Yang, are you sure you can fight?"
"Um?"
"If it really doesn't work, you can ask the referee for a few more cups of coffee and get one first. We'll try to play at a faster pace and end the game as early as possible."
"Oh, staying up all night is nothing to mention.
But you don’t seem to be very good at it, boy! "
Xu Yang reached out and patted his shoulder and teased.
These words made Xiye look confused.
There was no trace of the after-effects of an all-nighter from the volume of his words, his face, and his eyes.
Is this pussy so awesome?
With such doubts, Xiye followed Xu Yang onto the stage of the third game.
…
At the same time, Guan Zeyuan and Ji Ji in the commentary box were chatting away time.
"Dregs is probably a player that WE fans should be familiar with."
"After Wang Guangmao retired, he played for one year in the 2015 season. Then his record was not ideal, so he was moved to the bench."
"But, I think he was actually pretty good that year."
"Especially when former LSPL teammates and coaches are trying to fix matches, Dregs players can always stick to their true intentions. This is already a very remarkable thing."
As soon as these words came out, the barrage in the game live broadcast room all complained:
"Stick to your heart? You didn't take him to play!!!"
"Hahaha, the title of his own live broadcast room is "Too bad, I didn't call him during the fake match"."
"Fuck, are you spending your own money like this?"
"I'm going to see how colorful it is later. He didn't even have to fake a match."
"Hmph, I've watched his live broadcast. I'm afraid WE will have to fight four against six."
"No one wants fake matches. There must be a reason."
"Speaking of which... he won't force NB to advance by performing three games in a row, right?"
"Sell the house and make a bet, let two chase three!!!"
"..."
While the barrage continued to flood the screen, the director also specially gave a shot of the WE player seats.
Can be seen clearly.
At this time, Xu Yang was wearing a team uniform that didn't quite fit him. He was changing and debugging his keyboard and mouse peripherals. From time to time, he turned around and joked with the referee girl behind him. It didn't look like he was here to play a game at all.
"Forehead……"
Guan Zeyuan was stunned for a moment, then helped explain:
"The Dregs players have returned to the competition after more than a year, and their mentality seems to be good at the moment."
"Indeed, now let's take a look at the BP of the two teams in the third game."
Wang remembers next to him and echoed.
As soon as he finished speaking, a scene of BP borders quickly appeared on the live game screen.
"WE blue side, NB red side."
"WE chose to target the enemy's midfielder, aircraft, Jayce, and the Leopard Girl jungler that Swift is good at."
"NB's side is full of bot laners, small guns, skateboard shoes, and big mouths."
"Ignore the new Dregs player."
"This idea is very clear, it is to target your ADCarry position, and you can win as long as you kill the core output point."
"And there is nothing WE can do."
"Due to 957's absence, they can only play in the bottom lane..."
It’s consistent with the commentator’s judgment.
When the first round of bans ended, the Redmi coach directly selected AD Lucian to first ensure the strength of the bottom lane in the early stage, and then supplement the snake girl in the middle to ensure the output in the later stage.
Looking at the third spot, Hongmi scratched his forehead in distress.
If nothing happens to 957.
At this moment, he immediately chose a jungler to avoid Kandi's rhythm point being targeted, and it was not too late to save the final top lane for the second round.
But……
Xu Yang's uncertainty made him hesitate.
If the top lane is left until the second round, the team will most likely not be able to choose a suitable top lane, nor will it be able to counterattack with Conte.
After a moment of hesitation.
Coach Hongmi walked behind Xu Yang’s seat and said:
"Let's choose the road first, Xu Yang, what heroes are you usually good at?"
The meaning of this statement is very obvious.
That is, as a coach, Hongmi gives a degree of freedom of choice that is rarely seen in ordinary times.
As long as you play well, you can choose whatever you want. It can be said to be a team privilege that WE players rarely enjoy.
"..."
Xu Yang glanced at the first two moves of the enemy's lineup, the output combination of Xia + Yanque.
Then he said out loud: "Naru, me."
"OK."
Hearing this, Coach Hongmi nodded in agreement with this choice.
After all, Gnar is a one-size-fits-all hero.
It met his requirements for Xu Yang.
It can not only mix online, but also control and play a front-row role in team battles.
There was a dull thud.
Immediately, WE’s third-hand spot was determined: Lost Fang, Gnar.
…
