Gu Xing took the other party all the way to the door of the hotel.
"Do you have any plans for tomorrow?" he asked before saying goodbye. "It just coincides with my vacation. If you need anything, I can help."
Shen Guanshan waved his hands repeatedly, "No, I will go to the Bund in the morning and return to Zhenhai in the afternoon."
She knows that professional players are night owls, often staying up very late to finish training, and not getting up until noon during the day.
You can't suddenly change other people's work and rest habits tomorrow morning to pull Gu Xing up.
Gu Xing responded and said nothing more.
There was silence between the two for the first time tonight.
Shen Guanshan felt that he should take the initiative to say something.
Gu Xing's words just now made her bolder when interacting with him.
Pulling on the shoulder strap of the backpack, the Spongebob pendant on the zipper also sways.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Guanshan raised his head and stared into Gu Xing's eyes, "When will I go to Guangzhou to watch your game?"
A while ago, the LPL officially announced the venue for this year’s summer split finals. .
Guangzhou International Sports and Performing Arts Center.
"Why did you pay for the loan in advance," Gu Xing laughed, "are you so confident in me?"
The first place in the VG group can only guarantee the semi-finals, and they need to win a B05 to enter the finals.
From top to bottom, the competition and training department is not sure of victory.
Shen Guanshan responded without hesitation, "I have always believed in you since I was a child."
Now facing Gu Xing, she was no longer cautious and spoke her true thoughts without concealment.
Gu Xing almost didn't recover after hitting a straight shot.
Looking into Shen Guanshan's bright eyes, he could even see his own reflection in the other person's clear eyes.
He couldn't stand this look.
Gu Xing calmed down and said, "With your good words, I can really win in the end. I will give you 1/3 of the credit."
Shen Guanshan frowned, "I haven't been to Guangzhou yet. I heard that the architecture there is very unique."
Seeing that her current demeanor was much more casual and carefree than before, the smile on Gu Xing's face became more obvious.
The two of them were chatting at the door of the hotel when the cell phone in Gu Xing's pocket suddenly rang.
He took it out and took a look.
It's a QQ call.
From a friend with the comment "Twenty thousand years old in town".
This was originally modified by Gu Xing to tease Gu Pan when he heard about his sister's college entrance examination ranking.
What kind of call should I make at night?
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like Gu Pan's style.
Gu Xing cursed, but he was afraid that his parents and sister would encounter some unsolvable accident, so he quickly connected them.
"Hello?" Gu Pan's voice reached his ears through the receiver, "Where are you?"
Even though it’s not face-to-face communication.
But Gu Xing could still discern the emotion in Gu Pan's words.
Every time she communicates with people in this deliberately calm tone, it is the calm before the storm.
What happened?
Gu Xing was confused.
He hasn't had any conflicts with Gu Pan recently, so logically he shouldn't!
It wasn't until his eyes shifted and met Shen Guanshan's innocent gaze again that Gu Xing suddenly realized the culprit.
"What's wrong on the street?" Gu Xing thought for a while and turned on the speakerphone directly so that Shen Guanshan could hear clearly, "I just finished eating and walked to the base." "
Gu Pan laughed angrily, "Are you kidding me, Gu Xing? Do you think I didn't know that Guan Shan went to find you?"
Shen Guanshan was panicked now.
She didn't expect to be discovered by Gu Pan.
Gu Xinggang wanted to tell his sister that this matter had something to do with you.
Before she could speak, she heard Gu Pan asking questions like a barrage of questions, "You two are now forming a small group and kicking me out, right? Brother and sister in 18 years and best friends in the neighborhood. Classmates in 12 years. It's really embarrassing to do this now." It’s so chilling…”
Shen Guanshan lowered his head lower and lower like an ostrich, eager to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
After hearing this, Gu Xing could only say that it was too high, it was really too high.
If the other party starts with the ambiguous little moves between the two, it will be easy for Gu Xing and Shen Guanshan to deal with it.
After all, no matter what happens, it is their private matter and has nothing to do with Gu Pan.
But Gu Pan started from the perspective of a friend and took the commanding heights!
The three of them have established a close relationship for a long time, and Shen Guanshan's approach really seems to be to kick Gu Pan away and form a small group.
Now, it is Gu Xing who is riding a tiger and is unable to get off.
Shen Guanshan obviously doesn't have enough brains in this kind of social thinking game, so he still has to do it.
Gu Xing carefully considered his choice of words and sentences, "Guan Shan told me that you are preparing for the second subject recently. If you are asked to come to watch the competition, you will easily be distracted and affect your state... After all, you are not very good at the second subject. If you fail, you will have to make up the exam. not good?"
Shen Guanshan looked at him with wide eyes.
When did I say that Gu Pan’s second subject was not very good?
However, the voice of Gu Pan on the other side of the phone suddenly rose an octave higher, "Why don't we make a bet? If I pass subject two once, you will give me a bottle of Pepsi!"
"I'm so anxious," Gu Xingle said, "Did I hit you in a sore spot?"
This sentence successfully angered Gu Pan.
She had forgotten the reason for her phone call and seriously discussed subject two with Gu Xing.
The brother and sister argued for five minutes, and finally Gu Xing hung up the call with a triumphant smile.
"Well, I'm awesome," he also showed off to Shen Guanshan, "Isn't this an easy solution?"
Shen Guanshan was very surprised, "There is actually such a method?"
Gu Xing taught the skills, "This is how you argue with Gu Pan. That guy is very articulate. Once he loses control, you can't get the upper hand in the argument. Just move to another topic with conflicting points. Her attention will follow you. Walk."
This can be said to be the secret gained by Gu Xing and his sister after years of quarrels.
Shen Guanshan seemed to understand.
Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Xing took the initiative to let her go upstairs to rest.
"Call me on your mobile phone when you get back. Don't forget to tell me you're safe when you return to Zhenhai..."
Gu Xing warned.
Shen Guanshan looked at his concerned expression, with a hint of joy in his eyes. He didn't remember what the other person said, he just nodded in agreement.
Gu Xing waited for Shen Guanshan to enter the hotel lobby and get the room card from the front desk, then waved goodbye.
When I got up the next day, it was already noon.
Gu Xing rarely stayed in bed, so he took out his cell phone and chatted with Shen Guanshan for a few words, and also got some photos of the Bund.
After she went to have lunch, he went to surf the e-sports forum.
Netizens are still commenting on yesterday’s game.
The news that LGD basically missed the playoffs made everyone sigh.
The optimistic family that was prosperous last year has now fallen into this situation, which is beyond the expectation of many people.
During the winter transfer period after the end of the S5 season, they recruited Finals FMVP Ma Run, which can be said to have completely strengthened the team!
Supporters are waiting for the Optimistic Team to make a comeback and prove themselves again in the World Championship.
However, it turns out that League of Legends is a team game.
Communication and linkage are equally important.
Just relying on the stacking of individual players’ strengths will not achieve ideal results.
Gu Xing scanned around and found that many netizens had changed their avatars to the little yellow dog of the Optimistic Family.
What finally attracted him was an interview post talking about the current team status and playoff situation.
Judging from the time of posting, this should be the content of the post-match interview conducted by Redmi yesterday.
Click to see, the interview is conducted in the form of Questions.&Answers.
Simple, clear and easy to read.
Gu Xing lowered the air conditioner by one degree, lying on his side on the bed and swiping his fingers on the screen of his phone.
Q: [After VG defeated LGD, they secured the first place in Group B of the regular season in advance. How does coach Hongmi evaluate the team’s performance in this summer split? ] Hongmi: [To be honest, we had anticipated VG’s ranking before the start of the game. It is generally believed that the 2-3 positions in the group will be relatively high. In addition to the spring champion RNG, there are also first-tier league teams such as WE in the group. The competition will be very fierce. Now that I got the first place two rounds early, I am really surprised.] Q: [Then what do you think is the key to the team's impressive results? ] Hongmi: [We made a very correct transaction. Inkyu (Dandy) is very strong, but we have to seek changes in the original lineup, so we found Sungbin (Imp), which made us sure The absolute core of the team in the summer split] [The performance of Virtue in the follow-up was beyond imagination. We found that using the jungle as the core in the early stage can also win the game, which greatly enriched our tactical diversity] [In the final analysis, it is still the team The tacit understanding in cooperation is even better. The players understand the tactics very well and execute them rigorously on the field.
At the same time, the adaptability to the version is also extremely perfect. All factors are intertwined and integrated, which is VG’s secret to winning in the summer regular season.] The next question is about the upcoming playoffs.
Redmi’s answer is very official, [Since the playoffs will enter version 6.15, according to the information revealed in the current test server, this will be a large-scale update change, which will definitely have an impact on all teams. VG can go How far we go depends on how deeply we understand the version] In the end, the reporter asked Redmi to pick out the player with the best performance in the summer split.
The victory of the game depends on the joint efforts of everyone. The performance of the players is obvious to all and is very exciting. If I have to choose one, I would choose Xiao Gu. 】【In just one and a half months, from a league rookie to the core of the team, he must go through very hard training. After completing daily practice, he has to practice late every day. 】【And he absorbs and understands knowledge very quickly, is good at drawing inferences from one instance, and has his own understanding of jungle planning and control. 】【In addition, he will ask Renkui (Dandy) for advice humbly, and he is very eager to learn...】【Keep it up, Virtue, the D, will definitely achieve brilliant results in the League of Legends】Hongmi praised him several times.
When Gu Xing saw this, he couldn't help but roll on the bed.
I took a screenshot of this interview, jumped out of bed, and ran downstairs to continue practicing in excitement.
After the rest day, Hongmi immediately strengthened the team.
He made an appointment with an LCK team to play a training match.
ROXTigers.
The team has gone through many name changes.
HuYaTigers, which was previously sponsored by Huya Live, later changed its name to GETigersL and KOOTigers, and also won the second place in the Ss World Championship.
Although the name has been changed several times, the real sponsor has actually remained unchanged.
GE, which is G-star Entertainment; KOO, which is the live broadcast platform KOO TV.
These two companies, like Huya, are all based on the YY Joyful Era.
However, entering the S6 season, KOO's capital investment shrank significantly, and the team changed its prefix to ROX, which means rock.
In this year's spring split, R0X, nicknamed the Tigers, performed very well, ranking first in the league with 16 wins and 2 losses. However, they lost to SKT with a score of 1:3 in the spring finals and missed their ticket to the mid-season tournament.
In the summer regular season, ROX once again defeated SKT and Samsung, successfully reaching the top of the LCK one round ahead of schedule with an impressive record of 14 wins and 3 losses!
The five-man team of Smeb, Peanut, Kuro, PraY and GorillA has become increasingly perfect and extremely powerful. They are even considered to be the team most likely to defeat SKT's dominance!
ROX was able to agree to VG's request for a training match, firstly because the VG team has two experienced players in the industry, Hongmi and Hou Ye, and they rely on personal connections to build relationships.
The second reason is that VG has been very aggressive recently and has the potential to dominate the LPL.
The Tigers wanted to test their intensity.
Being able to compete with a team of this level, Gu Xing was gearing up to show off his skills.
"Kuro." Mr. Hou looked at his opponent D in the custom room, his eyes showing a bit of nostalgia, "I haven't met him in a training match for a long time."
"Master Marquis, are you familiar with him?" Jack asked curiously.
Gu Xing helped explain, "It happened in the LCK spring finals last year. SKT beat the Tigers violently, and Mr. Hou even won the MVP."
It is said that Kuro is afraid of science. He trembles all over when he meets Fakers. His whole body is covered in cold sweat and his hands and feet are cold on hot days.
In fact, tracing back to its roots started with Easyhoon.
2015 LCK Spring Finals.
The newly formed GETigers faced SKT, which combined the two teams into one. Hou Ye started three games. Against Kuro, he achieved a forehand and backhand victory between the snake girl and the yellow chicken, and the yellow chicken against the snake girl.
In the three games, Easyhoonl's total battle loss ratio was as high as 19 kills, 4 deaths and 15 assists, a naked crushing in the middle!
SKT was able to win the championship in straight games and get a ticket to the mid-season tournament that year.
Faker didn't even have to play in that final!
From then on, Kuro felt frightened when he saw SKT and was afraid to play.
"Jack, you are saying that you are an old audience and you don't know this common sense?" Gu Xing teased Yu Wenbo.
"I've been a fan of Samsung for ten years, and five of them came to LPL last year. I decided not to watch LCK." Jack was justified, "You think so, huh?"
Gu Shengbin has been called this nickname at the base recently, and even Hongmi occasionally calls him in broken Chinese.
Over and over again, I have become numb to the nicknames.
He was slumped in a chair and was waiting in line for the qualifying match. When he heard Yu Wenbo's words, he weakly responded, "That's good, Jie Kuo. Only dogs watch SKT."
The truth is to say the harshest words in the softest tone.
The Marquis had questions all over his head.
Hongmi reminded, "Shengbin, if you can't hold it any longer, go back to the dormitory and lie down for a while."
Imp took off his glasses and yawned, "I will be number one in the Korean server soon. Let's go to the top before going to bed."
He hadn't slept a wink since the fight at ten o'clock last night, and his eyes were slightly bloodshot.
Ever since Gu Shengbin decided to start training hard, in just two weeks, he went from 77 win points in the master to the top ten in the Korean server!
Currently, Imp's Korean server ranking score has surpassed that of Gu Xing, and is only 7 victory points lower than the top-ranked Little Peanut!
He plans to take advantage of the break between the VG and Rox training matches to steal the chicken and become the first in the Korean server.
After the S5 World Championship started to fail, Gu Shengbin has not achieved such a high score in the Korean server for a long time.
This made him deeply moved.
"Are you sure it can work? Hongmi is very concerned about Imp now. This has nothing to do with Gu Shengbin's recent hard work.
He could see changes in his old colleagues.
"It's no problem to play two more sets." Imp rubbed his lower back, which was two circles thicker than when he was younger, and grinned in pain.
In the end, I felt helpless and had to accept my fate and continue to slump in the chair, "What do you mean by that, you have to serve your age."
The side effects of alcoholism and trashing are very obvious.
When Gu Shengbin wanted to regroup and sprint again, his body sent a warning signal.
Frequently staying up late and doing high-intensity training for up to 15 hours a day was a bit too much for him.
Seeing that his mental state was not particularly bad, Hongmi felt relieved and went to communicate with other team members.
Gu Xing adjusted the position of his headphones and started the training match with confidence.
As a result, three hours later, he and his four teammates were doubting life.
The results of today’s training match were written in marker on the whiteboard behind the seats.
2 wins and 5 losses.
"Why are they so fierce?" Yu Wenbo couldn't believe it.
Different from Samsung's procrastinating operation, this ROX is playing violent offense!
The lane radiates to the jungle, and the jungle radiates to the top lane. The top jungle combination with Smeb and Peanut as the main offensive spearheads completely penetrated the VG defense line!
Some games have just passed the laning period and there is no need to continue. Simply open the GG screen and start the next game quickly.
In just three hours, they played 7 sets with BP.
Hongmi motioned for everyone to turn their chairs around, "There's no need to continue. Let's review the game and relax during the evening training match."
He turned on the projector and used the giant screen hanging on the wall to play back the videos of these training games.
"The defensive position at the beginning of the first set was no problem..." Hongmi sat on a chair and pressed the space button to pause, while using a laser pointer to shoot a red light and shine it on the curtain to circle the players.
"But pay attention to the next section. Your second trinket will be better in 3 minutes. If this line of soldiers can be pushed out, you must go to the river to help replenish another defensive eye."
Xiao Duan took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the gaming chair, "But at that point, if Jack pushed the army line to the opposite side alone, he might be hit by ROX's bull head."
"So you have to communicate well," Hongmi said in a gentle tone, "If you want to do the eyes, tell Jack to step back a little and let go of the remaining two bins."
"Wait until you finish the eye return line and then push the line together. He will be grateful for 40 gold coins at most, which is completely acceptable..."
Hongmi is not putting pressure on its players all the time.
If the players' mentality of winning streak is getting too high, he will put on a bad face and warn the team.
Now that V was beaten like this against the Tigers, Hongmi knew that its blind pressure would be unacceptable to the players, so it chose a gentler approach to review the game.
"Xiao Gu, please pay attention," Hongmi looked at Gu Xing, "I was a little careless in today's training match. After being invaded, I always wanted to regain the position. I often suffered losses. The risks were too high and the returns were not high."
Gu Xing rubbed his brows and said, "My problem is that he is a bit overwhelmed by it."
Peanut’s offensive style is unprecedented!
The factory director uses his brain to carry out various operations, and his opponents are often led by the nose and fall into his rhythm.
ofm is the ultimate counter-jungle. He does not have any direct conflict with the opponent in the early stage. When the enemy enters his jungle area, he can only see an empty camp.
As for the little peanut, in Gu Xing's opinion, it was pure indiscriminate bombing!
Peanut will not give up any invasion opportunity in the early stage.
After entering the wild area, the different characteristics from Sofm became apparent.
Little Peanut doesn’t care about wild monsters, he’s only looking for people!
Every time, he uses powerful junglers like spiders and blind monks, and when he is ahead in combat power, he dives into the jungle.
Either cripple Gu Xing so that he loses the ability to continue Gak or farm development; or cooperate with other ROX teammates who come to support to kill him.
Such a violent style of play caused Gu Xing to suffer a lot in the first few rounds.
Later he tried to crack it with a male gun.
Graves has E [Quick Draw] which can improve double resistance. When in his own jungle, the number of layers of pure men will often be very high.
If Little Peanut invades again, Gu Xing can fight back on the spot!
But when Peanut saw him choosing the male gun, he started playing Tai Chi. Instead of entering the jungle, he put pressure on the three lines and established advantages for his teammates through frequent and efficient ganks.
In fact, Gu Xing performed very well in the next few games.
He didn't care about his teammates when operating the male gun, and kept busy developing. He waited until the middle of the game to take over the game, and surprisingly he was able to achieve a comeback despite the early headwind.
The two winning games in the training match were won in this way.
But overall, Gu Xing really couldn't get much benefit from the little peanut that was flourishing at this time.
"You have to pay attention to defense when playing against Peanut. You don't have to defend the jungle area alone," Hongmi said, shaking the laser pointer on the curtain, "Like this wave."
"After you finish eating this round of wild monsters, there is still a certain amount of time before the next group of camps is refreshed. You can choose to go to the bottom lane to help clear the line."
He taught Gu Xing his experience, "Don't be afraid of missing your spot. What if the little peanut knows your next move?"
"You take care of the stalemate in the bottom lane, and Xiao Duan can be freed to help you defend the jungle area. Xiao Peanut knows where you are, but he doesn't dare to come in and invade."
"Because your assistant can arrive before him!"
Gu Xing held his chin to indicate that he understood clearly, "Is it okay to have two more real eyes?"
"When you go out, set your eyes in the river and try to see the movements of Little Peanut one step ahead, so that my teammates and I will have enough time to deal with it..."
"That's right," Hongmi cast an approving look at him, "There is too much pressure in the jungle. When you go out with the green jungle knife, make an ward first. It is only used to prevent invasion. Just save the real ward for gank. "
Homme solved his problem and communicated with the other players in turn.
In order to rush for time and not miss the training match, they simply brought the food into the training room and ate while reviewing the game.
The replay of the last training game is over, and Redmi did not forget to summarize.
"The bad news is that there is still a visible gap between us and the world's top teams," he said slowly, letting Jin Wenhe convey his meaning to all the players. "The good news is that the team's hard strength is not weak, and it can barely compete with The strong teams competed."
"We can also make an appointment with ROX next week, so everyone must cherish the opportunity."
Hearing these words, Gu Xing's heart suddenly felt like fighting.
His strong competitive spirit made him unwilling to admit defeat and he had to regain his place!
