After the offseason began, public opinion was almost all about EDG.
But this is normal. It is the most popular team and should have the highest degree of discussion.
The second thing is that someone has won the championship, and the championship itself is the most dazzling one.
But the factory director's retirement was ultimately different from Su Can's.
There was no immediate announcement, and it seemed to be on hold for the time being.
I guess EDG still wants him to be a mascot or something. Even if he doesn't play many games, he can just stay in the team.
The factory director has not yet figured out his life after retirement. Unlike Su Can, he is bound to EDG for the rest of his life.
As long as EDG doesn't go bankrupt for a day, he will always be related to EDG.
Su Can briefly chatted with the factory director for a while, and Su Can didn't ask too much about the rest. He didn't know what was going on in the team.
After all, the entire EDG team is still on vacation.
For Su Can, it was a real vacation, and it was a long vacation with no time limit.
When to put it in depends entirely on Su Can's mood.
After announcing his retirement, Su Can felt much more relaxed.
Even though he was a bad guy in the past, he was still a professional player, so Su Can couldn't really take it for granted.
After retiring, things are completely different without restrictions. Su Can hasn't even turned on his computer recently.
As long as Su Can doesn't play games or go live, it's useless for Su Can to have a computer.
During this time, Su Can went out to play with An Lan and completely relaxed.
Moreover, the two of them tried not to go to crowded places, and with the protective measures in place, no one had ever photographed their whereabouts.
After announcing his retirement, Su Can disappeared from public view.
This is unacceptable to fans.
No one would be able to accept your retirement, and you suddenly ran away during your prime of life.
Forget about retiring, now he is not even broadcasting live, it is as if he has disappeared, which makes fans very uncomfortable.
The major live broadcast platforms couldn't sit still and have been trying their best to contact Su Can through various channels.
As long as Su Can can be signed to live broadcast, it will be profitable to spend more money.
For the first broadcast after retirement, you can imagine how popular it will be.
In the future, if Su Can is free to do live broadcasts to commentate on games or something, I believe the popularity will be very good.
For live broadcast platforms, this kind of head anchor is very important and can stabilize the basic base of League of Legends.
When the popularity of chicken eating is about to subside, the popularity of LOL becomes important.
But these people couldn't contact Su Can either.
Su Can had few friends in the industry. Although he said he didn't offend anyone, he only had contact information with his teammates.
In the e-sports player circle, players similar to Su Can are the majority. How many people can be real social butterflies?
It's just that after playing in the league for a few years, everyone is basically acquaintances.
Su Can has only been playing for a year, and he has not been able to play for most of the year.
Basically, when he makes a move, the guarantee is the LPL playoffs.
Most of the time I play in the World Championship. There are only a few teams in the World Championship, and most of the people I come into contact with are from foreign competition regions.
Everyone in the EDG team has a very good relationship with Su Can. Su Can retired and there was no conflict. They still regarded Su Can as one of their own.
Someone came to contact him, and people from EDG initially arranged a series of connections. After discovering that Su Can was not interested, they stopped pursuing this matter.
He didn't even get to Su Can and refused directly.
To put it bluntly, they also understand Su Can's character. If you make him impatient, no one in the EDG team can contact him, let alone you who are here to negotiate the contract.
Su Can just doesn't want to live broadcast for the time being.
Live streaming can indeed earn a lot of money, especially now that his popularity and reputation are at their peak.
If you want to make money from live streaming, now is probably the best opportunity, as people can offer you the highest price.
It's a pity that Su Can is now completely Buddhist, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't lack money.
If you really go live, you will be subject to various restrictions, such as the number of hours per month and so on.
Otherwise, if people give you so much money, you can still broadcast it if you want. Isn’t that a joke? It’s so easy to make money as a capitalist.
In order to not be restrained, Su Can still plans not to sign any contract with the live broadcast platform for the time being.
Wait until you want to go live.
If he really signed up for a live streaming platform, Su Can would probably pay less for the sake of freedom.
Before you know it, All-Star voting will begin.
After the World Championship, there will be no games for the next period of time. The All-Star Game is a casual event.
It has nothing to do with honors or anything like that. When no one calculates player honors, they will also include All-Star championships and the like.
It’s purely for fans to watch.
This year's All-Star Game is a little different from previous years. In order to make the game more interesting, Riot Games also makes changes from time to time every year.
For example, last year's All-Star Game was a bit heated. It was not an entertainment game, but China and South Korea were really fighting.
This year it's completely different. There aren't even five players in each division.
In previous years, the player with the highest number of votes might be assigned to each position. At most, a team could not go too many places, and then the player with the second highest number of votes would be chosen.
But this year, only three players will be selected to participate. If there are others, they should be specially invited.
If we really go by the voting, the top three should all be from the EDG team.
After playing it all this year, the popularity bonus is really huge.
Not to mention that someone like the director has a huge fan base.
But as in previous years, a maximum of two people can participate in a team.
Basically, if there is no suspense, EDG should lose two, leaving one spot for other teams.
The All-Star Game may not seem like an honor, but some players will still come out to canvass for votes and express their desire to go.
In terms of voting, Su Can was almost in the lead.
The combined votes of other contestants may not be as high as Su Can alone.
Compared to team fans and personal fans, what is more terrifying for Su Can is the casual fans.
Many people who don't play this game have heard of Su Can's name and know that this person is quite exaggerated.
Su Can didn't want to go at all.
First of all, this game has no meaning, it is just a performance.
Even Su Can missed so many serious games, let alone a useless All-Star like you.
Secondly, the distance is relatively long. This year’s All-Star Game is held in the beautiful country of Alaska, so it’s not easy to get there.
The long and bumpy ride was just for fun, and Su Can felt it was unnecessary.
In addition, now that he is used to being lazy, Su Can is really too lazy to move.
Seeing that his vote count was so high, Su Can quickly went to the official people to discuss it.
It would be better to come out and make it clear earlier, otherwise everyone will be excited to vote every day, and if you suddenly stop going, everyone will probably feel a little uncomfortable.
I just found an excuse and said that I was too tired after playing for a whole year and needed to take a rest.
The official originally planned to let Su Can, the factory director and Uzi go together.
In terms of votes, even if Uzi's results are mediocre this year, the number of fans is there.
After all, this thing is based on the number of votes, not the results.
If it depends on the results, I should find someone from IG.
But when it comes to voting, it’s normal if IG can’t vote for RNG.
It is estimated that IG will be given a special invitation slot later to allow a certain player to come.
The world runner-up still needs to be given some face.
Tengjing's thinking here is also simple. The factory director and Uzi are the two generations of leaders of the LPL, no matter how many players later win the world championship.
Pigs and dogs will always be the two most iconic people in the LPL.
Su Can can be regarded as the next generation, the one who excels in his work.
Although he is retiring, if three people are in the same frame in the All-Star Game, I believe the topic will be full.
For Teng Jing, this is really what he likes to do.
Once I heard that Su Can didn't want to go, there was nothing I could do.
After the last negotiation to retire, people in Tengjing also knew what kind of piss-poor Su Can was.
For someone who can directly decide to retire without discussion, what can you do if he doesn't go to the All-Star Game?
Should we still punish him?
They stopped playing games and were punished like a chicken.
In addition, the All-Stars are indeed not important, so Teng Jing does not matter.
Being able to come to discuss it is already a favor.
After discussing it, Su Can announced the matter on his personal Weibo.
When they heard that the All-Star Game was not going to be played, the fans really had some objections and frantically asked Su Can if he could live broadcast if he had nothing to do.
There were even some extreme ones who started to scold Su Can.
A year after his debut, Su Can played so many games without being scolded. Unexpectedly, he was scolded after winning the world championship.
The All-Star Game is still a while away, starting on December 7th.
Before that, Tengjing also had an annual awards ceremony.
Before the ceremony started, Tengjing's people had a good communication with Su Can and asked Su Can to come and participate.
Based on this year's results and performance, Su Can will definitely receive an important award.
It would be a bit boring if he didn't come.
Su Can also understood this truth. If he didn't go when the whole team went, he would look a bit out of place.
In addition, fans have been a little anxious recently, so Su Can felt that he needed to show up.
Originally, Su Can didn't care about this matter, thinking that he could just live according to his own way.
But considering that I have so many fans, I can understand their feelings.
…
At the awards ceremony, the entire EDG team appeared in suits and leather shoes on the red carpet, which aroused cheers from the audience.
From the appearance point of view, the entire EDG team is pretty good, except for IBoy, who may be too thin to hold up his suit and look a little stretched out on his hips.
Fortunately, Su Can was here, which directly raised the average level.
After the simple red carpet walk, it was time to enter the venue and sit down to wait for the awards.
The whole ceremony was quite long, and there were performances and other performances in the middle.
The awards were all inconsequential at the beginning, but became more important later on.
There is no suspense. The biggest winner this year is EDG. Basically, all the heavyweight awards are included, and other teams can only get some scraps.
The best club, no doubt about it, is definitely EDG.
Other individual awards, such as best coach, best manager, best team leader and the five best players, are all for EDG.
This is also the first time so far that the five best players in the LPL are all from the same team.
To put it bluntly, this award is somewhat of a pork-based award, with the teams with the best records sharing it together.
But this year's EDG record is too exaggerated, winning all the championships throughout the year.
The performance of the team members is also okay, there is no obvious shortcoming, and it would be inappropriate not to give it to anyone.
There will be huge controversy when it is over, but it is the most reasonable thing to give them all, and Tengjing will not do such disgusting things.
There is also a player of the year, and it can only be Su Can.
Su Can went on stage several times in a row and almost finished her acceptance speech.
After the awards ceremony and All-Star Game, LPL officially entered the transfer period.
Various revelations continue to be made during the transfer period.
It can be seen that many teams are thinking about strengthening their teams in the new year.
The most surprising thing is EDG.
Originally, Su Can's retirement had shocked everyone.
It's not shocking news that the factory director wants to retire. After all, it's time for him to play for so many years.
Everyone can understand that retiring at this time is the best choice, which is better than continuing to play.
However, there are still shocking news coming.
The first is that the coach has left the team.
NOFE originally signed a two-year contract with EDG. He came from S7, and it's over after this year.
After winning this championship this year, Nofe has made a lot of money in terms of bonuses.
After knowing that Su Can was retiring, NOFE had no intention of renewing the contract.
He knew that without Su Can, EDG would definitely decline.
Nofe knows better than anyone how there are so many championships this year.
Compared with this year's record, no matter how we play, it is not as good as it is.
And if it really declines too fast, for a club with such a large fan base, it would be the worst luck to have a coach turn around.
Rather than being scolded at the time, it would be better to just retire with success.
The main reason is that the salary extension provided by EDG does not increase significantly. If it was really a lot, Nofe would definitely be willing to stay.
The salary has not increased much and when you still have to rely on performance to get money, Nofe also knows that it is difficult and it is better to find a new team.
Anyway, he has the experience of being a championship coach now, and he can get a lot of jobs in LPL and LCK, so he is definitely a hot prospect.
There is more pressure and less money to go elsewhere, so there is no need to stay in EDG.
EDG also knows the level of NOFE. The level is there, but it’s really not that great.
If you want to leave, you won't be forced to stay. It's nice for everyone to get together and relax.
The departure of the coach is not a big news. The most surprising thing is the junior middle school boy.
This guy usually seemed silent, and no one could tell what he was thinking.
As a result, he went directly to sign a contract with an LCK team. He just won the championship and no longer wanted to stay with EDG, and the contract with EDG was not over yet.
Su Can didn't believe it after seeing the news online, and even went to ask Jin Xingyu what was going on.
When all the reports were verified, EDG fans were really not feeling well.
I thought Su Can's retirement would be a big blow, but I didn't expect that his family would be gone when the transfer period came.
