Chapter 32 - The spoiler of the secondary league
"Let's go, let's go shake hands."
Rookie smiled and patted Yuan Shen on the shoulder, then pulled Kakao and Yuan Shen towards WE's half of the area.
The entire audience was cheering. The feeling of victory was always intoxicating no matter how many times it happened.
After the handshake, everyone walked to the center of the stage and bowed, and at this time, it was time to select the MVP backstage.
In fact, whether in terms of performance or execution, the MVP of this game seemed to be destined.
Even the MVP system of League of Legends is somewhat different from the selection method of TGP.
The MVP of the game is selected manually, and in addition to data, the player's special performance is also taken into consideration.
For example, whether there were any outstanding operations and whether they played a decisive role in key team battles.
For example, the jungler continuously grabs the little dragon, or the support is far ahead in vision and score, setting the pace, and stepping forward to save the core C position many times.
In this game, whether looking at the statistics or the special performances, there is no suspense about the MVP.
Jayce, a hero who has not appeared on the top lane stage for a year, now appears on the field with a strong attitude and won the MVP with near-perfect data.
When Yuan Shen's signature and the data of this game appeared on the screen with Mercury's hammer in his hand, the audience cheered in surprise.
Perfect data, and...
"Fuck, not only is he good at playing games, but he's also so handsome??"
“Why didn’t I realize that the top laner was so handsome when I was in OMG before…”
"Nonsense, I've never won an MVP before."
"Yes, if the Emperor and Shiyi A stand forward, who can see the people behind them?"
There were bursts of exclamations from the audience and the comments in the live broadcast room.
With a good foundation and the photographer's post-processing such as lighting, Yuan Shen is not a pretty boy, but he is definitely clean and handsome in the weird e-sports circle. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the one with the best looks.
In e-sports, strength is important, but appearance is also crucial.
Humans are visual animals. A handsome guy playing shuttlecock looks cute, while an ugly guy playing golf looks like he is shoveling shit.
Tall, rich and handsome, at least one of the latter two must be present to be considered by the T0 version.
Especially in the e-sports circle, there are very few players with good looks.
What’s more, he is a contestant who has both strength and good looks.
LGD's Hirano Aya used to have an overbite. I heard that she went to Korea for cosmetic surgery after the spring season. She may look much more handsome the next time we see her.
"It's a big profit..."
In the IG lounge, Su Xiaoluo's eyes lit up.
When he saw Yuan Shen before, he didn't feel anything, he just felt very comfortable.
Compared to the three fat guys Kid, Zzitai, and Rookie and the two bean sprouts Kakao and Shekeko.
Yuan Shen is an excellent choice in terms of both appearance and figure.
I didn't pay much attention to it before because he thought he was a handsome guy too.
But now he realized that no matter how handsome he was, he couldn't appear on stage frequently, but the contestants could!
Strength, good looks, and aggressive play style, if handled properly, Yuan Shen will be a signature of IG in the future! !
Yuan Shen's performance, popularity, and speed of attracting fans are absolutely first-rate.
As long as he achieves enough results and performs well enough to shut up Uzi and his fans, Yuan Shen will soar to the sky!
After all, Yuan Shen can be said to have all the characteristics that make it easy to attract fans.
And the number of fans, in other words, is commercial value!
Free competitions, free live broadcasts, how do LPL competitions and teams make money?
Only with a large number of fans and traffic can the value be realized.
And Yuan Shen possesses such ability.
"I think we can try to let Yuan Shen play in the future."
Su Xiaoluo coughed. In his eyes, Yuan Shen seemed to have become a cash cow that could infinitely extract surplus value and bring in a thousand-fold return.
"I disagree."
A voice suddenly sounded behind him. Su Xiaoluo originally thought that Zzitai would object, after all, he was still the nominal starting top laner.
But what he didn't expect was that the one who opposed it was Fu Manduo.
"Coach, this?"
Su Xiaoluo was a little confused.
Why not let Yuan Shen play if we can win the game?
"Today's play cannot be replicated. WE's strength level is not high, and..." Fu Manduo adjusted his glasses and continued, "The reverse version of the top single carry tactics cannot be used frequently. If used too much, other teams will study and imitate them and seek ways to crack them.
"Don't forget, the tactical system we envisioned is centered around the top, mid and jungle, not just the top lane. We are not a team like Snake. Our mid laner is ten or a hundred times stronger than Snake's mid laner. A single core tactic will not go far."
Fu Manduo sighed.
Compared with Yuan Shen's carrying ability on the field, he values Yuan Shen's tactical command ability more.
And this is the basis for improving IG's overall strength and making IG truly capable of facing strong teams like EDG and LGD.
……
The game was over and everyone at IG returned to the base.
Because it was the first game played, when we returned to the base, the first game of the second game between the Snakes and UP had not yet been completed.
However, the Snake team already has a great advantage, and a bottom-tier team like UP still cannot compete with the top six teams in the league.
LPL games are now concentrated on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Monday to Thursday is rest time.
It is a holiday for others, but it is a game day for professional players.
This is also for ratings considerations.
After all, work is already tiring enough, so who has the energy to watch games against teams they don’t like?
There are 12 teams in a double round-robin format, which means that each team has to play 22 BO2 games.
There are 11 game weeks in total, an average of two games per week.
Of course, there are occasionally one or three games a week, but they are only a minority after all.
IG’s opponent in the second game is the QG team that rushed up from LSPL.
"QG is a team that should not be underestimated."
After Yuan Shen finished speaking, he explained in the puzzled eyes of everyone: "As you know, I tried out various major teams some time ago and studied a lot of information. Among them, QG is the target I focus on. Their lineup is very similar to other strong teams. The midfielder and jungler have two Korean players and three local players. The overall playing style and rhythm are very similar to ours. Although the midfielder and jungler may be slightly inferior to Rookie and Kakao, they are definitely not to be underestimated."
"Swift is also the wild king."
She Keke sighed.
How can South Korea, a tiny country, produce so many outstanding professional players?
There are actually five of the four wild kings!
"After Snake finishes UP, LGD will face QG. We can see how good QG is."
Fu Manduo smiled.
He didn't care much about Yuan Shen's words.
In his opinion, the only teams that the league needs to pay attention to at present are EDG and LGD, and at most the Snake team.
These three teams, plus IG, happen to be the top four teams in the spring season.
Other than that, he doesn't think other teams are worth wasting energy on studying.
"Of course LGD will win!"
The attitude is very unlike Sister Li.
Is there any suspense about this?
Who is LGD?
The runner-up of LPL Spring Season lost 2-3. If it weren’t for Mingkai stealing the dragon, they would have almost won the championship and overthrown the strongest team dominated by EDG.
Mid laner Wei Shen is not much inferior to Pawn, and the others are also at the top level of the league.
Especially Imp in the bottom lane, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the father of the world's No. 1 ADC.
After MSI ended, many LPL fans felt that SKT was 2-3, LGD was also 2-3, and it seemed that LGD was even stronger. Wouldn't it be easy to beat QG, which came from the secondary league?
"not necessarily……"
After Yuan Shen finished speaking, he fell silent.
Kid pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you think LGD might lose?"
"It's not that they might lose. If they take it lightly and don't take QG seriously, I think they will suffer a big loss. Losing is not impossible. If you underestimate your opponent, there will always be a time when you will lose.
"We are no exception, and if something like this does happen, I hope it will be in the regular season, not in the playoffs."
Yuan Shen shrugged, but everyone in IG looked at each other in disbelief.
QG, are you that strong?
