Chapter 122-Million-dollar bonus, great momentum

Yuan Shen also has a deep impression of KOO.

This team has a very high upper limit and a very low lower limit.

In the past, KOO could be defeated by FW in the group stage, but the adjustment and coping abilities they showed in the BO5 format are rare in the world!
Don’t think that just because KOO was defeated by FW, he is just a noob.

Quite the contrary!

In the previous life, KOO came back from a 1-0 deficit to defeat KT 3-0 in the quarterfinals and swept Europe's No. 1 seed FNC in the semifinals. Before that, FNC had just beaten EDG 4-0.

Even KOO was able to win a game against SKT in the finals, giving SKT the only defeat in the 5th World Finals!
Otherwise, SKT could have won the championship with all wins.

KOO team, top laner Smeb, jungler Hujin, mid laner Kuro, bottom lane Pray, support Gorilla.

KOO in S5, ROX in S6, LZ in S7, and even KZ in S8, this team has been in the same lineage and has always performed very well in the world championships.

And S6 was undoubtedly their peak.

This team has great potential.

Facing such a team, even Yuan Shen did not dare to guarantee victory.

In the previous KOO, the overall performance was that the two C positions were checking in, the jungler Hujin was a nervous knife, and the victory or defeat depended entirely on the condition of the top laner Smeb.

If KOO was like this in the quarterfinals, he would be confident enough to beat KOO, and even beating them 3-0 would not be a problem!
Because he is also IG's strongest point, it is completely impossible for Smeb to find a flaw in him and defeat IG by targeting him.

However, he couldn't be sure that the rest of KOO would be the same as before.

In the World Championships, players can undergo rapid transformation!

On this big stage, what we compete for is who progresses faster. You should never look at others with old eyes, otherwise you will die without knowing how you died.

When we arrived in London, it was already October 12th.

There are only three days left until the opening of the quarterfinals.

During these three days, they also have to shoot a lot of promotional videos and videos, leaving almost no time to adjust.

… “Everyone, don’t be too stressed. The principal said that the club can’t support you in this world competition, but the club won’t give you all the prize money this time.”

Su Xiaoluo clapped his hands, attracting the attention of everyone on IG.

"Everyone will get a bonus. I've already asked people to do the specific contracts. Don't feel burdened. Just give it a try."

After Su Xiaoluo finished speaking, he stood up straight and began to check Riot's announcement.

"The champion will receive one million US dollars, the runner-up will receive two hundred and fifty thousand US dollars, the third and fourth place will receive one hundred and fifty thousand US dollars, and the fifth to eighth place will receive seventy-five thousand US dollars..."

"That is to say, if we beat KOO, everyone will get 30,000 dollars, if we beat LGD, everyone will get 50,000 dollars, if we beat SKT, everyone will get 200,000 dollars?"

“What’s the exchange rate!!”

"Wait a moment!"

"6.2, the champions will each be million."

Yuan Shen gave the result directly.

Hearing this number, everyone in IG breathed heavier.

There is still a big gap in their wages.

Rookie and Kakao's are higher, while Zizi and KID's are slightly lower.

Yuan Shen and Jack still receive the basic salary as new employees.

But it doesn’t matter. After this World Championship, no matter what results IG finally achieves, their salary level will jump to the first-tier of LPL.

"Ahem, there are also Zzitai and KID, don't give them all to them!"

Rookie coughed and reminded.

"We haven't even played yet, so why would we want a bonus? Just play with confidence, and if you win I'll treat you to a meal!"

"That's right, I'm in charge of ordering!"

Zzitai and KID responded immediately.

The brothers are still settling accounts.

They didn't play, so why should they get paid?
After following the principal for so many years, when has the principal ever let us brothers suffer any loss?
Apart from other things, playing professionally for IG has the advantage of guaranteed income, so much so that it is no exaggeration to say that it is like a pension insurance.

"If we win the championship, everyone will get 1.2 million in bonuses. If it's not enough, the club will make up for it. Each person will get an additional 300,000 in bonuses, and the substitutes will get 100,000."

Su Xiaoluo waved his hand and made the final promise.

Then, in front of everyone's gaze, he added: "These can all be written into the contract. Just do your best in this World Championship." Everyone in IG fell silent.

If you win the championship you will be a millionaire.

Jack muttered.

He is still a minor and earns a lot from live streaming, but he is still a long way from making a million.

For him, who only earns 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month, it would take him 20 months to save up one million yuan without eating or drinking.

"And there's also a share of the champion skin."

Yuan Shen added.

"How about we pick the skin first? Yijin, I think you should just pick Leblanc."

As soon as Zizhi finished speaking, Yuan Shen blocked his mouth.

"Fuck you, it's too early to think about this now!"

Yuan Shen cursed with a smile.

Although 2015 is not as good as 2018, the first set of championship skins of LPL is likely to sell like hot cakes!
In short, there will be no shortage of money.

"Champion skin..."

The eyes of the IG members became redder again.

League of Legends is what they are best at. If they can have a champion skin, they will have something to brag about even after they retire!
"Brothers, please take down SKT!"

She Keke suddenly stood up and bowed to the other four people.

He is the weakest among IG's five starting players, and he knows it.

If the auxiliary had no substitute, he would have been replaced as well.

The principal is really determined for this world competition.

This time, everyone in IG was confused.

"No buddy, we haven't played against KOO yet, LGD is still waiting for us, why are we going straight to SKT?"

"It's a bit fast, no time assassin allowed!"

"I don't care. Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents. From today on, SKT is my father's murderer. Kill him!"

Veins bulged on Shekeke's neck, he stood up and turned away.

"What are you going for?"

"Training! I want to practice last hitting, I want to practice Kennen!"

"Fuck! You're just a support who's only doing last-hitting. Come back here!"

Jack blushed and stood up to chase after him.

"My money ability is refreshed every week..."

Yuan Shen swallowed his saliva. This was the first time he had seen such a thing.

The principal is rich and powerful and uses money to attack people. What can he say?
What can i say? ?
Time flies by.

What puzzles KOO and SKT is that the way IG players look at them has been a little strange these days.

It's always confusing.

At 10 p.m. on October 15, Wembley Arena, London, England.

The quarterfinals officially opened.

Amid the excited cheers of the audience, the venue suddenly darkened and a melodious and lingering BGM sounded.

On the big screen, the Summoner's Trophy appears in close-up, with a crowd of people coming and going behind it.

"The quarterfinals are just a beginning. I never think this will be our end. In order to let everyone remember us, we will have the opportunity to perform on a higher stage."

In the square in front of Buckingham Palace, there is a statue of the Goddess of Victory standing on a high marble platform, shining with gold.

The front gate is magnificent, the golden decorations on the outer fence are majestic and solemn, and the reliefs on the heavy iron gate create an atmosphere that is in harmony with the palace. Under the gaze of the Guards, MaRin turned his head to look at the sky.

SKT's group stage match scene appeared, with a 6-0 record, and their overwhelming dominance was undoubtedly demonstrated.
