"May I come in?"
Prince Ning stood at the door and looked into the box.
RNG's home club is not far from the private restaurant, and it can be reached in half an hour if there is no traffic jam.
Li Nian and Jack happened to miss this guy.
The Big Three of the past are reunited again!
Su Xiaoluo was not surprised by Prince Ning's arrival. Although the two had frequent quarrels last year, they were all due to work and did not affect their private friendship.
It is undeniable that King Ning revitalized IG in the S7 Summer Split and injected fresh blood into the team.
At least 1/3 of the credit!
"You kid," Prince Ning carelessly hugged his friend's shoulders, "I thought you were overachieving this season, but I didn't expect you to be getting more and more aggressive!"
"What nonsense are you telling the truth? You're not a bad person either!"
Li Nian grinned and punched Prince Ning in the chest, "The rotation with the incense pot is also very effective."
"That's right!"
Shiba Inu put a piece of lotus root clip into his mouth, chewed it twice, "It's a pity that RNG didn't let you play in the second round."
Second round of double round robin.
The match between IG and RNG ended at 2:1. Three Xiangguo started, and together with the peak Uzi, they almost ended IG's winning streak.
After hearing this, King Ning was silent for a moment.
He picked up a piece of pot meat and put it into his mouth. The sweet and sour taste stimulated his taste buds. After putting down the chopsticks, his mouth opened slightly and he stopped talking.
"It's still comfortable to get along with you."
Prince Ning sighed softly, his eyes wandering.
"You can still tolerate my bad temper in IG, but staying in RNG is just asking for trouble for yourself."
He raised the cup and said, "I feel aggrieved just thinking about it. Come on, brothers, drink this cup of Coke from 1982 with me!"
Hear this.
Li Nian and Jack looked at each other.
His eyes were shining brightly.
Instead of raising the Coke in the cup, he asked at the same time, "Xiao Sui! Tell us your pain and make us happy."
Prince Ning's eyes widened, as if he wanted to hit someone.
But after thinking for a moment, he poured out the bitter water.
"It's a long story."
Li Nian took a sip of Coke and listened to Prince Ning's talk.
In the RNG team, Uzi and Mala Xiangguo are both hot-tempered, while Guan Hu, Xiao Ming and Rang Di have slightly softer personalities.
but
This guy is an onmyoji.
One hand is full of mud attributes.
Prince Ning was a straight-headed person, and he had a conflict with Uzi in this atmosphere because he failed to control his temper.
The two had a fight.
Li Nian is still thinking:
The fight scene between Uzi and Uncle Gao in the dormitory was so bloody.
"How did you solve it later?"
Jack becomes a curious baby.
"Actually," Prince Ning recalled, "I didn't have much contact with Uzi before. I thought he was a pushover and looked down on him."
“After a fight, I realized that this guy is quite a man!”
Prince Ning curled up his lips, "Later on, we were able to communicate whether it was about games or any problems in life. If he dares to be popular with Wen, I will dare to talk to him."
Li Nian was stunned.
Mala Xiangguo also has a bad temper!
why
No effect?
Jack ate a piece of kidney and joked, "I just want to know who won? Your tall uncle won't lose to a little fat guy, right?"
Uzi and Shiba Inu are about the same height. When they stand next to Ning Wang, it is easy to see the difference in stature.
"That must be me!"
Prince Ning raised his head proudly, like a victorious rooster, "Just like the fat little fat guy, I'll knock down the next three of them."
He looked at Li Nian's unbelieving expression and pinched his fingers, "Nian, how about we go outside and practice?"
Li Nian almost raised his middle finger, "Come out and fight!"
Then he cursed unceremoniously, "If you want to practice, you have to go to Summoner's Rift to practice. You can't even make it to the finals!"
RNG ranks third in the Western Conference in points.
In the first round of the game, they will face WE, which is ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference, and the winner will have a face-to-face meeting with RW in the second round.
The two teams want to meet.
Meet only in spring finals.
previously
They still have to defeat EDG, which has 18 wins and 1 loss in the Eastern Conference, and stage a pig-dog battle in advance to enter the finals.
"I have General Jian Ziwei, who can pass five levels and kill six generals!"
Prince Ning was very proud and his face was full of joy.
"You're so smart, why don't you go to the auto repair shop to blow up the tires." Jack said disdainfully.
Before Li Nian could speak.
There was the sound of wine bottles falling to the ground in the box.
Then the sound of the door being broken was heard.
Song Yijin’s BBQ mandarin shouted, “Jiang Chenglu drank too much and ran out!”
Li Nian was slightly stunned and quickly stood up.
You didn't drink too much and went to fight with the trash can, right?
TNND!
But it can't be done!
Something happened once in the past life, and you must never make the same mistake again.
So he summoned Prince Ning and hurriedly chased him out without saying a word.
The private restaurant is located in the villa area, and there are almost no people there at night.
Extraordinarily quiet.
After Li Nian chased him out, he saw Jiang Chenglu's tall figure at a glance with the help of the weak street lights around him.
"What does Cheng Lu want to do?"
Before King Ning could react, he was grabbed by Li Nian and rushed towards Theshy's face.
The location is right next to the trash can.
"Xiba."
Theshy, who was drunk and unconscious, punched the trash can with his fist, as if he was going to use all his strength to pierce him.
"Fuck!"
The Shiba Inu was impatient and rushed over to help.
But due to lack of exercise and a full stomach, I couldn't even take more than two steps without running out of breath.
Li Nian was so anxious that he broke into a cold sweat.
Sima Ning, Sima Ning!
Damn you!
He rushed to Jiang Chenglu at a sprint speed of 100 meters, forcefully pulled him back, and punched him in the air.
Li Nian breathed a sigh of relief.
Saved!
Prince Ning also came over quickly to control him.
Double jungler gank successful!
"How much did you drink?"
Theshy struggled fiercely, and two big men, Li Nian and Ning Wang, were able to calm him down.
Shiba Inu breathed a sigh of relief.
He frowned and looked at An Ning and Su Xiaoluo, who were blushing, biting their lips and looking slightly cold.
previously
He roughly heard Jiang Chenglu's complaints.
Recently, the version has changed. The upper unit is biased toward tank heroes. The style of Theshy hero is slightly different from that of the version.
The hero training speed is a little slow.
This also prevented him from starting as a starter.
Just won the world championship.
He was put on the bench, and anyone who replaced him would feel uncomfortable.
The result is
Theshy drinks away his sorrows.
Su Xiaoluo and Aning drank like crazy. Jiang Chenglu, who was originally in a bad mood, drank a little too much and his mood suddenly collapsed.
Fortunately, Li Nian reacted quickly and stopped this farce in time.
The clerk brought the 'Hover hangover elixir' and after drinking it, Jiang Chenglu finally calmed down and snored slowly.
Li Nian and Prince Ning helped him back to the hotel.
The Tengjing staff in charge of the players' hotel asked what happened, but the Shiba Inu was perfunctory.
Otherwise, the alliance will find out
It is estimated that he will have to be fined and criticized.
"You go back," Rookie sighed, "I will take care of him at night."
Li Nian and Prince Ning returned to the room exhausted.
Jack gritted his teeth and said, "It's a good thing we stopped him, otherwise Brother Shy's hand would have been useless."
Prince Ning breathed a sigh of relief and patted his slightly sore muscles, "Fortunately, I came today, otherwise Li Nian alone wouldn't have been able to stop him."
"We can't let him drink anymore."
Li Nian looked a little tired, "Su Xiaoluo and Aning changed into different people after drinking, and they did things without considering the consequences."
Prince Ning started to think about it.
"I've left IG anyway, I'm going to mess with him!"
The three discussed for a long time and finally finalized the plan.
"Next time we meet, we will be rivals!" Prince Ning teased, "Don't let me knock you down! My little substitute!"
"Don't forget, the substitute took away your starting spot!"
"You boy"
Prince Ning spread his hands and smiled helplessly, waving his hands, "Let's go, men have to fight for milk powder money."
Looking at the background of Gao Zhenning leaving.
Li Nian and Shiba Inu gradually came to their senses, "Prince Ning, you're not going to hold your fucking engagement party, are you?"
On April 12, when the IG team ended their vacation, the playoffs were fiercely fought, and the first one was the contest between BLG and SNG.
On the second day of the playoffs, BLG faced SNG.
It is worth mentioning that BLG changed the mid laner in the second half of today's spring game.
Mole, nicknamed Xiao Dongbei, entered the professional arena. This rising star blossomed into an eye-catching talent in the second half of the regular season.
There was back and forth with the left hand, who was known as the genius mid laner.
The big daddy of the top team, Jian Gou Riao, had enough strength to fight the Kirby beast Zoom back and forth.
In the end, BLG was superior and successfully defeated Little Lion SNG 3:2.
As a result, they faced RW the next day, but were defeated by the Xia team 3:1, ending their first playoff appearance.
My uncle learned from it painfully.
He is already studying the 2018 LPL summer transfer period.
On the second day of the playoffs, RNG faced WE.
The performance of the Red and White Army this season was quite average. The dyed-in-law brother-in-law was in poor condition, Kandi was kicked out of the game, and the newcomer sadly took over the seat.
Even the elegant and easy-going 957 has experienced a sharp decline.
In addition to the sadness of the teenager, age has become the biggest problem of WE2.0.
It was S6 when 957 was officially introduced to the LPL. He was already 23 years old at that time.
Ben and his brother-in-law are also 23 years old. Wangzai Xiye, who has been at the WE Club since he was a child laborer, is the youngest among them at 21.
Time is ruthless, leaving indelible marks on them who have been fighting in the alliance for many years.
WE lost the peak dominance of last spring split.
In the BO5 against RNG, they were easily defeated 3:0.
Xiye, who performed well, turned into a bankrupt power bank, while the brother-in-law on the bottom lane couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north and south due to the Uzi hammer.
April 14th.
BLG successfully broke through to the top six of the spring split, but as a new team, they fell to the Snakes, which ranked second in the regular season.
The peak showdown between the two talented top laners of the year, Holy Spear Brother and Jian Gou.
pity
At the last moment of 5 fierce battles, failure to perform the miraculous teleportation in IM will change the fate of the team.
Ending the playoffs in tears.
The other side.
In the Western Conference, two BO3 first-generation Xia teams met RNG.
In this season's spring regular season, the growth rate of the RW team is obvious to the audience.
Then
Doinb knows Uzi too well!
He often performs well when facing teams whose mid laners are not very strong in laning. Once he has the laning rights, he can roam around indefinitely.
For example, this was the case when they faced RNG in the regular season.
Once the four-pack-two tactic is activated, the old thief Sima will take off directly and transform into a ruthless output machine, and the opponent's bottom lane will be very uncomfortable.
but
When RW faced IG, they were beaten badly.
Doinb was completely unable to move when facing a broiler with full laning ability.
Top laner Aguang once had a brilliant performance in killing Theshy alone, but when Kkoma used an offensive type to attract all the girls in the world, Aguang shut down.
Li Nian took advantage of the midfield advantage to invade wildly.
"Xiaofu, I want to come in!"
Flawless never even dreamed of hearing these words linger in his ears.
The two sides fought to a score of 2:2.
Seeing that the game is about to be lost.
RNG finally took out the door hidden in its arms. Black technology.
'Flag of command! '
The effect of magic immunity makes it impossible for Doinb to clear the cannon truck.
He can't move
Like a monkey with broken wings.
RW's Grand Theft Auto journey, because he stepped into the post-season threshold with his left foot first, was caught in the offseason by a pair of silver bracelets.
Li Nian and Kkoma watched the entire game in the training room.
After the game, Kkoma looked at Li Nian with a serious face and said at the beginning, "The tactics of staying at MSI have been exposed!"
Li Nian spread his hands and looked helpless.
As a time traveler, he knows very well that RNG, which was at its peak back then, relied on the "Flag of Command" to win major events.
until
Later, when the 'Flag of Command' was removed, their dominance dropped slightly.
But!
In version 8.4, Li Nian was reminded of this piece of equipment by the update notice that removed the effect of "The buff effect of the Dragon Buff and the Flag of Command cannot be superimposed".
Kkoma also told the IG players about this equipment in the training room in advance.
and
I originally planned to let Broiler train as a warrior mid laner.
But after practicing for two weeks, the results were not satisfactory.
The routine of Flag of Command has also been hidden in Kkoma's notebook.
Now, RNG has revealed the routine first.
It was true that Leehom was caught off guard.
"It's not a big problem," Li Nian spread his hands, "The new version of Dao Mei, Jace or Crocodile in the mid lane can handle this routine."
Broiler nodded.
"Except for the crocodile, everything else can be taken out and played in the game."
Dao Mei can play well and hit. In addition to Rookie, who has to maximize his proficiency, the two top laners Theshy and Duke must also master it.
“One more question”
Leehom frowned, "In the duel between EDG and RNG in a week, if EDG cannot find a way to restrain 'Flag of Command', there is a high chance that they will be defeated 3:0."
RNG has surpassed two teams in a row.
Their playing style and feel have improved further to the naked eye. Even though the team name is hidden, they are completely different from the regular season team.
In terms of personal competitive status alone, Uzi is no less than the hexagonal pinnacle Bang of the S6 World Championship.
In terms of dominance and performance on the field, Uzi is even better.
In the semifinals against EDG on April 22.
RNG won the match point 2:0, and the EDG coaching staff replaced Karsa, hoping that the director could replicate the S7 summer finals with two teams chasing three.
But
Still no use!
Khan took out Jace, but he still didn't gain half the advantage over Letme.
The factory director was arrested at the second level.
But King Ning was just like when IG was guarding Theshy. After clearing the lower half of the area, he started to squat as the factory director. In the end, Uzi won a double kill in 3v3.
Ioby cried.
The Uzi he faced, the Uzi in the spring of 2018!
EDG, which was defeated by RNG's three-step move, was no longer able to parry, and unfortunately fell outside the stage of the Spring Finals.
Li Nian pursed his lips.
I'm a little worried about the next game.
In his previous life, when he viewed RNG as a spectator, he felt like Lingnan in "The Master of Guannan". If the Immortal Way was not defeated, they would not lose.
There is always hope of winning.
The strongest weapon is always the version. Unless you are a patch, you cannot stay strong forever.
And now, what version is Uzi facing?
ADCs like Xayah and Kai'Sa who have extremely strong carry abilities dominate the bottom lane ecosystem, while the three positions of Ueno and Suke tend to be tanks and team-fighting, and even the mid laner can play functional roles such as Ice Girl and Galio. The mid laner.
It can create an unparalleled output environment for ADC.
Uzi is enhanced in disguise.
Let the rotation of emperor and gestures complement each other.
Letme finally recognized himself and gave up the offensive style of play in the second team of RNG Royal Family.
Heroes like captains and vampires are really beyond his control!
Isn’t it easy to just mess around online as a Sion?
Especially Yang Meie, now W Bellows Flame Breath also comes with a shield, plus the passive ability to hit equipment, it can be called a line-reliable artifact.
This kind of hero is under the tower. Even if Karsa wants to help train Letme, it is difficult to kill him.
And what hurts Li Niantian the most.
King Ning!
He is at the peak of his career.
IG's familiar tactics were re-enacted and changed to the lower half, and the protective ability was even stronger than Karsa's previous life.
The key is
This guy has a very good brain and a very keen sense of smell.
When Spring Battle encounters RNG, it’s hard to say who will win.
The posture will be biased towards some heroes of the half-tank and half-output style, or a more appropriate version of the Fatan-type hero like Crow.
The cancellation of accounts becomes more and more fierce with the BUFF of spring.
Especially after being recharged by Xiye, his confidence seemed to be rekindled. After the laning period, he and the puppy formed an RNG double C crazy C!
Although Xiangguo is not very stable, it has a little more room for error when switching to Ning Wang, who also favors fierce and reckless play style.
While ensuring their own development, they can also rely on their own bottom lane advantage to continuously put pressure on the opponent in the lane.
Xiaofu was tortured by IG's double jungler and was completely ruined.
Are you two the same person?
I'll eat it directly!
Just as everyone was watching the pig-dog battle in the semi-finals, the war between IG and the Snakes also started raging the next day.
It's not terrible to do something embarrassing if you drink too much.
The scary thing is that someone can help you remember it!
Theshy woke up and the Shiba Inu found out and privately sent the video recorded by Baolan to Jiang Chenglu.
After reading.
Jiang Chenglu blushed with embarrassment and rubbed the Shiba Inu's face like crazy.
Are you able to laugh at the embarrassing things your brothers do?
But
The end of this incident had a great impact on Jiang Chenglu.
When I was in WE's youth training camp, why was I put on the bench by Pinnacle 957 and unable to play?
In addition to WE's different positioning of the top laner, his hero pool was too extreme and could not adapt to the version.
Now.
It's the same situation.
So he learned from the experience and practiced the double grace of Ornn and Thain, and finally, after being verified by Kkoma, he returned to the starting lineup.
But there's a problem.
Theshy’s driving skills are so bad!
There was no experienced driver in the team to take him through Summoner's Rift. As a representative of recklessness, he could only explore on his own and start playing with bumper cars.
Duke finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm just here to be the mascot, why do I have to go on stage to educate those bastards?
In the battle against the Snakes, IG adhered to the mentality of not working overtime and defeated them in the semi-finals with an unsuspicious result of 3:0.
I heard that you like to farm in the wild?
Li Nian educated Vietnam's richest man three times.
Take out reverse versions of heroes such as Male Gun and Leopard Girl to let him know how to catch them while ensuring the development of wild cores.
And down the road.
After experiencing the pain of BO10, Crystal Brother faced the grinning Shiba Inu and was defeated in the laning phase.
Brother Shengqiang couldn't hold his forehead and collapsed on the chair.
The champion is always one step ahead of him.
Li Nian looked relaxed when he saw the base opposite exploded and the word victory appeared in the center of his screen.
The score of 3 to 0 seemed like a normal crushing game, but as the acrobatic top laner, Holy Spear Brother learned RNG's "Flag of Command" and almost turned the game over.
If there wasn't a male gunner in the C position to clean up the artillery soldiers, it would be really difficult to deal with the snake team's split push.
Li Nian stood up and followed his teammates, crossing the stage to shake hands with the five members of the Snakes team. After taking off his headphones, the stadium commentary rushed into their ears without any hindrance.
"Let us congratulate IG again for reaching the Spring Finals."
Dry ice mist erupted from the front of the stage. Five IG teammates stretched out their arms to hook their shoulders and bowed to the audience who cheered and cheered for them.
"Is this the second time our team has entered the Spring Finals?"
While the bottom duo was going for an interview, Broiler recalled IG's historical record with his fingers.
The last time was back in the spring of S4.
IG led by PDD!
Now, after 4 years, they have returned to the LPL finals stage.
IG who just won the world championship.
——The winner is king. People remember the stars on the top of the mountain, but they can’t see the hardships and scarred pedestrians on the way to climb the mountain.
Not to mention the ever-changing LPL, which is changing rapidly, what is good today may become yesterday’s.
But in these years, while talking about the flashing names of RNG, EDG, and WE, IG holds its name of incomparable sharpness and perseverance.
Invictus gaming, still stands here unyieldingly.
Last year, everyone was not optimistic about winning the world championship;
This year, he was crazily targeted by Riot Games, thinking he would follow the same path of previous world champions.
But it only took one season, and with a 19-game winning streak, fans and viewers once again saw that this team was still shining.
'Little IG is invincible! '
Fans of IG habitually hold the 'dog tag' in their hands and look forward to them winning this championship in the LPL.
"Come on little IG!"
April 28, Chengdu Rubik's Cube Performing Arts Center.
The long-awaited spring break has arrived as promised.
Players from all over the country gathered together. They loudly discussed the possibility of today's finals. From time to time, they took out their mobile phones to watch the operation highlights. The e-sports atmosphere was rich and pure.
Tengjing spared no expense in publicity to maximize the momentum of this spring showdown.
On the north side of Tianfu Avenue next to the venue, posters for this LPL final are hung on the publicity boards on both sides of the road.
On the poster, Li Nian and Uzi are fighting against each other, and several teammates behind them are lined up. The momentum is very good.
The last time IG cooperated with the Panda Base, the results were very good.
Next, many cultural and tourism companies approached the club and promoted Chengdu native Li Nian as a 'tourism ambassador' on billboards in subways and buses.
now
The war for the Spring Show has started, and each company is sparing no effort to promote it, constantly breaking out of the circle.
Even the old lady playing mahjong under the Second Line Bridge can recognize Li Nian at a glance.
"Hurry up!" Su Qing urged, "You're still dragging your feet to watch your son play. I really want to slap you to death!"
Li An didn't dare to talk back.
Quickly line up to enter the channel.
Taking advantage of the crowd, he couldn't help but mutter, "This kid still knows how to send the tickets to me, so he has some conscience."
during this time
Ang Lee competes on the US server when he has time.
The first-hand Yasuo has now been awarded diamonds, and has a little bit of his own understanding of the game.
Su Qing rolled her eyes.
I found my seat in the front row with the help of dim lights.
"There are so many people!"
Li An looked around at the young men and women, but at this time he found that he was surrounded by brothers who were about the same age as him.
"Hey, brother, are you here to see the boy in your house too?"
Jack's father was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You too!"
Li An's face lit up, he found his accomplice!
Before the two of them could exchange a few words, the lights dimmed.
The surrounding stands were crowded with people, and when the lights gradually went out, screams pierced the sky above the Chengdu Rubik's Cube Performing Arts Center.
Fans from both sides kept waving light sticks and shouting for the teams they supported.
The four small screens in the center of the stage were clearly printed with the team logos of IG and RNG, and the upper and lower ones were the LPL logo and countdown.
The screen keeps flickering.
"Ten, nine, seven"
The 'ever-changing' sound effects and the live audience spontaneously synchronized the countdown, and the restless sounds echoed in the darkness.
"Three, two, one!"
The venue was once again plunged into darkness.
The audience could only hear each other's hot breathing.
The weather in Chengdu at the end of April has become very hot, and the air-conditioning spreading in the venue cannot cool down the restlessness and excitement of the 10,000 people in the venue.
The logos of Tengjing Sports and LPL appeared before the audience could react.
The screen switched again and the LPL Spring Finals promotional video began to play.
Wearing black and white clothes, the two parkour team members held the team flags of IG and RNG respectively, with elegant and elegant postures.
Pass through Chunxi Road, Wuhou Temple, Panda Base and Du Fu Thatched Cottage, and finally pass through an alley, spinning and jumping across the peppers covering the floor.
The two of them didn't even remember to take a breath.
The Rubik's Cube Performing Arts Center suddenly appears in front of you!
LPL logo appears!
The screen went black again!
The melodious sound of the bass flute is transmitted to the ears of all audiences through the excellent acoustics of the performing arts center.
The lights converged in the center of the stage, and the performers from the band were introduced to the scene.
The originally restless and excited audience became silent as everyone waited for the song to finish playing.
The spring competition theme song "Open Sky" played by an ensemble of four traditional musical instruments echoed leisurely in the venue, as if telling the historical story of this thousand-year-old ancient capital.
The last heavy note fell, the three screens lit up again, and the stage lights followed.
"This is Chengdu, the Rubik's Cube Performing Arts Center!" Ren Dong, holding a microphone, quietly appeared behind the auditorium, "Dear Summoners on site and in front of the screen, welcome to the live broadcast of the 2018 LPL Spring Finals!"
The audience that had just been quiet became excited again. When they looked at Ren Dong, they let out deafening cheers.
"After four months of hard work and sweat, the feud between the first 14 teams will be settled in this venue!"
Ren Dong walked down the steps with long legs and shouted in a powerful voice, "IG and RNG will compete here today to determine the final winner this spring and win the Silver Dragon Cup!"
"Whether IG's new king ascends the throne or RNG wins their second Spring Split championship, they will both usher in team history!"
Having said this, he waved his arm violently, "Now, summoners on the scene, let us shout out the names of the two teams!"
Fans in the audience shouted the names of their home teams loudly.
No one wants to lose before the battle begins, which makes the fans cheer even more loudly than before.
There are many RNG fans who like to play Huazi, and even the number of IG fans who won the S7 world championship is slightly lower.
Li An frowned slightly.
As I get older, I can no longer listen to too much noise.
"It's so noisy on the other side. I really hope they can shut up later."
It was rare for Su Qing not to refute Li An.
"Across the way, I'll be dumbfounded!"
(End of chapter)
