Chapter 313-World Famous Painting: Nine Blind Monks...

"First Division! First Division is awesome!"

"Let's go, let's go... shake hands, it's time to shake hands!!"

After everyone was excited, the director notified everyone to go to the LCK competition room opposite.

The situation inside the LCK competition room at this moment is in sharp contrast to that of the LPL side. The atmosphere is silent and depressing.

Most of the previous All-Star games were mainly for entertainment. Even if they didn’t win the championship, it was dispensable to them and no one would gossip about it.

However, this year's All-Star format has been changed to be treated completely like a regular tournament. Just look at the player lists and lineups of all participating teams to know how valuable the All-Star trophy is.

Each major region sent out the top and strongest players in each position.

Under such circumstances, LCK was swept 3-0 by LPL.

Not to mention themselves, the sense of honor for the region alone makes the five LCK players feel ashamed.
Self-blame, guilt, pain...

Speechless facing the people of Jiangdong!
This river is the Han River...

When the LPL players came to shake hands with them as winners, everyone felt a little dazzled.

Because among these people, except for the two midfielders and junglers of IG, they were basically defeated by them...

Being defeated by a defeated opponent is undoubtedly the most unacceptable thing, especially for these arrogant LCK star players.

But the winner is the winner, and the 16- crushing victory says it all. In the last international competition of , LCK was completely defeated!
Yuan Shen didn't know how many times he had shaken hands with Faker. He found that Faker's expression had become numb, without the excitement he had at the S6 World Championship. Perhaps he himself realized that there was a huge problem with his condition, and whether he could adjust himself was the key to his return to the top!
Or maybe, it wasn't his problem, but that he met Yuan Shen.

Originally in history, Faker should be the high-spirited winner of two consecutive championships, with three championships under his belt, the most popular player at the moment.

But now Faker, two runner-up titles in the World Championships have exhausted all his energy.

Every time he shook hands, Yuan Shen came with the attitude of a winner. Although it was a bit sad to see Faker, but...

Yuan Shen hopes that this will be the case every time in the future.

My hero, his enemy.

Yuan Shen and Faker can be said to be the most representative figures of the two major regions of LPL and LCK.

Since the All-Star Arena is relatively small, the audience is very close to where the players are playing.

At this moment, after the LPL players had finished shaking hands and were on their way to the big stage, the audience members who were nearby had already begun to stretch out their hands and cheer, wanting to high-five them.

Among these people, there are many foreign audiences, but there are more domestic Asian faces!!

The venue is not big, but it has erupted with cheers that are countless times louder!

The five LPL players stretched out their arms one by one with bright smiles and high-fived the audience on the way, and the scene was sensational again!

When they arrived at the center of the stage, the special blue crystal trophy for the All-Star Game had already been placed in the center. Everyone looked at each other, and the LPL team coach Abu had also walked over.

He won three league championships and an MSI championship with EDG, but since the rise of IG, he has also won many honors!
Two-time All-Star, Olympic champion…

And all this is because of Yuan Shen, this treasure player.

"Oh oh oh!!"

"Hold the cup! Hold the cup!"

The audience cheered, and everyone in LPL felt excited, but also very subtle.

Because the people standing next to them at this moment are not the familiar old teammates, but brand new people.

Several people formed a circle and held up the Blue Crystal World Trophy together!
Bang!
Bang!
Exciting colors erupted above the venue, the big screen was showing this scene, and the official photographer was snapping photos frantically, recording every detail of the moment.

"Congratulations to the LPL team again! Wow, they created a miracle! They defeated the LCK team 3-0... Each of these three games was very exciting. Let us give our warmest wishes to the five LPL guys and to the LPL region!"

“LPL——NO1!!”

Sjokz was already standing on the stage, with colorful ribbons falling from the stage. This was the treatment and honor that only belonged to the All-Star champion.

The cheers at the scene had already risen, and everyone's face was flushed with excitement.

After the event interviews were over, everyone returned to the hotel looking extremely tired.

After the excitement of winning the championship wore off, everyone had a wonderful feeling in their hearts.

The current teammates will become opponents after returning to LPL.

Next year, in addition to holding the World Championship in China, Riot will also host a brand new event.

I heard it’s called the Intercontinental Championship, and each region will select four teams to compete against each other.

Both EDG and RNG will become IG's right-hand men and fight side by side for the honor of the LPL region.

The three of them are the iron triangle of LPL!

The authorities seemed to understand that the players were a little tired after a long journey and several days of bloody battles, and the All-Stars on the last day returned to the essence of previous entertainment games.

Unlimited firepower, doomsday robots, and various entertainment modes are all arranged.

And the last game is the clone game.

This competition will still feature the top ten contestants voted by the audience.

It's just the global audience, not the LPL audience.

In the final grouping, Yuan Shen was grouped together with Xiaohuasheng, Rookie, Faker, and Meiko.

On the opposite side are Smeb, Uzi, Jankos, Kakao and MingKai.

Looking at the familiar "ClearLove7" ID placed opposite him, Yuan Shen was a little dazed.

"Yuan Shen, what should we play? How about Yasuo? One blows the wind and four follow up. The opponent will definitely not expect it."

"No, I don't know Yasuo!"

Before Yuan Shen could say anything, Peanut was the first to object.

"Hey, there's nothing we can't do with this thing, E will do it."

Meiko smiled and communicated with Peanute in Korean. Deft left EDG, but he had improved his Korean.

Iboy is not old enough yet, so he can only partner with Zet and wait for Iboy to play in the second half of the year.

"Lee Sin, everyone knows how to play."

Faker is not opposed to playing Yasuo, but rather than having fun, he wants to experience the feeling of partnering with Yuan Shen in the mid and jungle, which is a novel experience.

"Lee See? I can!"

Peaunt smiled happily, this hero is also his signature. He must perform well in front of Yuan Shen to prove that he is not that bad!
"Then...how do we split the route?"

"I'm the mid laner!"

Meiko had just asked a question when Faker said "Mid" with a blank expression.

Rookie leaned over in surprise and glanced at Faker past Yuan Shen and Peaunt.

"Uh, Yijin, let's go to the bottom lane. Wanghu can play jungle."

"That's fine, Xiao Tianye, are you ok with going to the top lane?"

“That has to be OK.”

As if sensing that the atmosphere was a bit strange, Meiko decisively chose the top lane position, a secluded side lane far away from the disputes.

When Xiao Huasheng heard that Yuan Shen had taken the initiative to give up the jungle position to him, he was extremely happy.

"Senior, I will do my best!"

Looking at the way Peanut was sitting upright, it seemed that all he needed to do was to sign a military order.

Faker still had a blank expression on his face, but he was secretly annoyed in his heart.

"Ah Xi! If I had known, I would have asked where Yuanshen went first!"

Now, although he got the mid lane position, the jungler is still the immature Peaunt.

Seeing Yuan Shen and Rookie in the bottom lane flirting with each other happily and not knowing what to say, Faker felt very sad.

Why does Rookie have such a good jungler, but he only has Hei?

Now even Bengi has left the team. Of the original five players of SKT, he is the only one left...

Oh yeah, and Kkoma.

But, can we beat IG with the current personnel configuration? ?

……

Unlike Yuan Shen's side, because there were three junglers on the other side, Uzi's proposal of Vayne was rejected unanimously in less than a second.

Then, Kakao chose Lee Sin.

Uzi and Jankos both agreed, while Smeb thought it didn't matter as he could play anything.

But Mingkai seemed to have remembered some bad things in the past, and his face darkened. After gesticulating for a long time, he finally gave up struggling and looked resigned to his fate.

However, in the split lane, Mingkai still fought hard and got the jungler position he wanted.

Firstly, the jungle position does not require much confrontation, and he is more familiar with it. He can rely on his awareness to survive and develop. When it comes to team fights, he can also rely on maintaining his KDA to make his record not too bad and successfully become invisible.

Secondly, he thought that the opposing jungler was most likely Yuan Shen and would not attack him too harshly.

However, when he saw Peaunt with punishment on the loading screen, Mingkai's face darkened...

"Ten blind monks!! We have such good chemistry!"

Rookie looked at Yuan Shen in surprise, and Meiko next to him almost laughed out loud.

"Although Mingkai's Lee Sin has a 70% win rate, his spinning kick speed is not as fast as mine. Brother Yuan, do you believe it?"

"Mr. Mingkai, every encounter in the world is a long-awaited reunion. I'm glad to meet you. I'm your fan!"

"Spinning kick... doesn't Mingkai usually go behind and then kick?"

"Yi Jin, you're going too far! It's fine that you said that my MingKai can't do R flash and can only do roundhouse kick, but you even came behind me. Are you going to say that MingKai in the jungle uses sprint and plate armor next time?" Yuan Shen couldn't help but break down when Meiko and Rookie said. Faker couldn't understand what they were saying. He could only look at the two people in the bottom lane laughing, and his heart was even more sour.

"Team fight in the middle lane!"

Meiko took the lead and led the team to rush towards the middle lane. All ten blind monks from both sides came to the middle lane. Sound waves were flying everywhere, but almost no one dared to trigger the second echo and rush into the crowd.

However, nine out of ten Lee Sins chose to learn Q at level 1, and only Mingkai learned W at level 1, and kept applying shields to his teammates, just like an old mother...

"Even the additions are different. You are worthy of being me, Mr. Mingkai!"

Peaunt sighed, but Meiko discovered something.

"Learn W at level 1, I'm afraid you'll have to go it alone in the upper half, are you going to invade?"

"Ah?"

When Peaunt heard Meiko calling her, her eyes lit up.

Meiko and Mingkai are both from EDG, so they are naturally more familiar with each other.

Learning W at level one, the possibility of playing alone is greater, and considering the ID matching of both sides, Xiaohuasheng made a secret decision.

The two sides were laning normally. Mingkai had just finished clearing the upper half of the area and was about to reach the third wolf when he was caught by Peaunt.

After flashing, touching the eyes, and various displacements and changes of shape, Xiaohuasheng finally successfully got the first blood of Mingkai with a one-third blood advantage.

Although the enemy had already come to support, Faker and Yuan Shen arrived faster and successfully covered Xiaohuasheng's retreat.

"Bush, how did he know I was popular?"

Mingkai racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.

However, this is just the beginning.

As both sides reached level six, Mingkai's nightmare officially began.

Spinning kick, R flash, and dragon tail swing in various postures!
When Meiko took the lead with a powerful shot that sent Mingkai into the face of his teammate, the game had already entered the stage that Mingkai least wanted to see.

Alley-oop!

Peaunt didn't wait for MingKai to land, and directly used R flash in the air to send MingKai behind him.

Although Faker's operation had some flaws, he still successfully used the eye to kick out the ultimate move, and Mingkai flew diagonally behind him.

As Rookie successfully killed Mingkai with a QRQE combo, the audience at the scene laughed wildly.

The European host even exclaimed that he saw a thrilling football match at the League of Legends game in Barcelona!

And the skin that Meiko chose is exactly the Footballer of the Year!
The domestic live broadcast rooms are also full of teasing comments.

"The newcomer ClearLove7 was bullied by the captain Meiko!"

"I am dying of laughter. Nine blind monks and one ball. Guess who this ball is?"

"Meiko, this kid has gone too far!"

However, compared to the audience's ridicule, Mingkai did not purse his lips and become autistic like Yue Lun did after being killed in the counterattack. Instead, he shook his head helplessly.

This scene was projected onto the big screen by the director, and many viewers developed a favorable impression of this 93-born veteran.

It is not a bad thing to be able to accept your own dish, put yourself in the right position, and play your own role.

This is also one of the reasons why MingKai can fight again and again despite repeated failures and continue to thrive in the LPL meme world.

The day's entertainment competition ended, leaving the audience with a lot of laughter and fun.

Enough classic moments have been preserved by the Internet and remain in the minds of countless viewers, who will smile knowingly when they think of them from time to time.

While the domestic German Cup is in full swing, several members of the LPL Dream Team, the source and initiator of everything, are still enjoying their last time together in Barcelona.

After the All-Stars won the championship, this year's world competition has come to an end.

The five members of the LPL Dream Team have all finished their respective schedules. After working hard for a whole year, they are now suddenly free of the pressure of competition, plus they have won the championship, and most importantly... the people who have gathered together are about to part ways.

Everyone just had a few days of fun in Barcelona.

There were other staff members as well, and we all had a big team-building activity together.

Official LPL staff recorded and filmed the entire process, capturing many beautiful moments.

Five days passed, and everyone had a great time eating, drinking and having fun. When the sixth day came, everyone got up early and boarded the plane back home.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the plane landed at Shanghai's Hongqiao Airport.

After saying goodbye to each other, the ten people went back to their homes and looked for their mothers.

After arriving at the base, Fumanduo took the lead in convening a meeting.

There are many changes in the S7 preseason.

This was also the first time Yuan Shen met Baolan and Sima Laozei at the base.

He and Prince Ning are old friends, so naturally they have a lot to talk about when they meet.

"The jungle area has undergone many large-scale changes throughout history..."

Fu Manduo cleared his throat and began to preside over the meeting.

Yuan Shen fell into deep thought as he looked at the specific changes on the screen.

This update is obviously aimed at the jungle position.

The two small monsters around the double buff were deleted and turned into two small birds in the Razorbeak Wild Area, and F4 successfully upgraded to F6. (This was changed at this time. It was all F4 before, and it cannot be changed after the modification period. If you see it, you can correct it and it can be changed.)
Originally, there were only two wild monsters in the Stone Beetle Camp, Big Stone and Small Stone. Now both stones have grown a little and become Old Stone and Big Stone.

After the old stone is killed, it can split into two big stones, and after the big stone is killed, it can split into two small stones.

Like nesting dolls, three generations of a family live in a jungle camp closest to the side lane.

The setting of buffing wild monsters by punishing them, which lasted for two years, has also been deleted. It is no longer possible for an EZ jungler to use the "Gift of the Stone Fist" obtained by punishing the Stone Beetle at level 1 to clear the jungle.

Various buffs such as Wolf Spirit, True Sight, and Gift of Toadstool have been deleted. The only punishment effect that has been preserved is the red buff, and it has been strengthened. It has been uniformly changed to punish large wild monsters or epic wild monsters, providing a 100+10% maximum health treatment effect.

"The jungle position is not as interesting as it used to be."

After discussing with King Ning, the two reached a consensus.

"Yeah, there were a lot of heroes I could play before, like the Ezreal and Jayce you played. I tried them all and they were pretty good, but now I can't play them all."

"Last year, the designers didn't allow Iron Man to go to the bottom lane, and didn't allow Kennen and Shen to go support. This year, they cut off many heroes' jungle play styles. It seems to be a lot more standardized, but it also stifles the imagination and creativity of the players. It's crazy."

"Balance is not easy to achieve!" Baolan was retorted by Ning Wang before he finished speaking.

"It's not good to be a fart. It doesn't make sense to delete the purple jungle knife."

Prince Ning kept complaining.

Back then, the purple jungle knife had area damage, which accelerated the jungle clearing speed of many heroes, and all kinds of heroes could play jungle.

Not anymore.

The punishment benefits have also been changed, so what’s the point of playing this game!

"I can understand that. Standardization will help new players to get into the game. The number of new players who won the championship in the past two years is not small, but..."

"That's not a newbie... They haven't played a few hundred matches to level up to 30, saved up gold to buy runes and heroes, and bought an account to play ranked right away. What else can you say if that's not a scam?"

Prince Ning complained a little louder, and Fu Manduo's face turned black.

"I'm talking upstairs and you're talking downstairs. Gao Zhenning, why don't you come up and talk!"

Prince Ning stopped talking.

It’s just that his already dark face is now even darker.

Looking at Fu Manduo's aggressive look, he couldn't help but recall the time when he was scolded by his homeroom teacher when he was in school.

The same.

Those who study well think everything they do is right, and those who do wrong are led astray by him.

Ha ha……

"The monster spawn time has increased from 100 seconds to 150 seconds. Jax and Nidalee are no longer playable."

Yuan Shen curled his lips.

With this series of changes, he doesn't believe that Riot is not targeting him!

After the game with ROX, Jax's spoon-type jungle became popular all over the world, and more people in all divisions started playing Jax as a jungler.

In the World Championship, Nidalee's BP rate is as high as 96%, and the biggest reason is that she can clear the jungle quickly enough in the early stage.

For normal heroes, whether it is Lee Sin or Graves, their jungle clearing speed is not fast enough in the early stage.

Unless it is a hero like EZ or Weapon whose passive skill has a high attack speed bonus.

The combination of Nidalee's dual forms and the effects of her various small skills in the early stages make her almost unmatched in terms of jungle clearing speed.

Under normal circumstances, after you finish clearing a round of jungle monsters, you don’t have time to gank, counter-camp, or control vision. You have to return to the city immediately to start the second round of clearing the jungle.

But now it takes 150 seconds to refresh a round of wild monsters. Even a hero who is slow in refreshing the jungle can still perform a gank after refreshing a round of wild monsters, and then return to the city to continue refreshing the jungle.

No delay at all.

"Fights will be more frequent in the early stages, and meat-eating junglers can still be played. The priority of junglers who need to reach level 6 to do things will decrease."

Yuan Shen kept summarizing and writing and drawing on his notebook. This time, King Ning had learned his lesson. He didn't say a word and even raised his head to give Fu Manduo a provocative look.

"Gao Zhenning! Look at Yuan Shen. He has such a good learning opportunity but he doesn't know how to cherish it? Why are you looking at me? Is there an answer on my face?"

After Fu Manduo finished speaking, everyone in IG laughed until they were numb, leaving only Ning Wang with a red face and thick neck, almost smoking.

"Wow! Ricochet?!"

Yuan Shen's exclamation instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the conference room. Even Sima the old thief cast a surprised look at him.
