Chapter 177 The training ground! EDG first battle!

The members of the LPL team set foot on the return journey on the third day after the end of the All-Star Game.

In more than half a month, the German Cup will start.

The German Cup has continued since 14, and the prize pool has expanded to 120 million.

The winning team will receive a prize of 50.

Compared with the LPL league, the amount of prize money is not too much, and some large clubs are also not very popular, so that in the previous German Cup, many teams will send their second teams to participate, and the main players will continue to rest , actively preparing for the LPL.

But this year the situation is slightly different.

LPL won the milestone first championship, and the fist company made another change to the rune talent after two years.

This innovative change made the coaches of all teams a little uncertain.

Therefore, this German Cup is not just a cup.

It is also a training ground for many teams.

It is perfect for the players to test each other's strength on this training ground.

It is precisely because of this that the officials attach great importance to this German Cup.

We must know that judging from the list of players of each team at the end of the winter transfer period, there are indeed many teams with strong competition in 2018.

Moreover, the major commentators have also discussed the strength ratings of each team in the live broadcast or on the show.

It's just that it's difficult for even the commentators to judge 100% the strength of the major clubs this year.

In normal times, the IG team that won the 17 World Finals championship is bound to be the only team in the league. After all, the overall dominance of the IG team in the summer of 17 is obvious to all.

However, IG made personnel adjustments. What they lost was not only an excellent adc player, but also the command of the entire team.

The criticality of command can be imagined.

Before Jackeylove's strength has been recognized, the situation of IG is confusing.

In contrast, EDG is not bad.

Although Li Luo joined, the problems that EDG has accumulated over the years cannot be solved by Li Luo alone, and not many people will pay attention to the newly introduced Ueno players.

Even if someone has popularized Jin Gong's ability and took his wonderful operations as an example, he is still not favored by the public.

E-sports, results speak.

It is true that Jin Gong did not achieve much in the GT team, and even fell all the way from the relegation match to the secondary league.

RNG's mid laner Xiaohu is also from the GT team, but his results are solid.

In addition, although the WE and RNG teams that have not changed their personnel seem to have no reinforcements on the surface, they are teams that have been running in for a long time, and their teamwork is likely to be much stronger than teams that have been rotated.

With the release of the starting rosters of the major teams, countless viewers are silently looking forward to it.

12 month 26 number.

The German Cup qualifiers kicked off.

The 28 teams come from all over the country, including the minor leagues, and more than half of these teams need to play in the qualifiers.

Only by breaking through in the qualifiers can it be possible to play against the strong teams of the LPL.

Everyone in EDG didn't pay attention to their opponents in the qualifiers. Since Li Luo came back and devoted himself to training, they have been intensively preparing for the German Cup.

A more easy-going person like Li Luo can easily blend into the atmosphere of the team.

For Li Luo, EDG is indeed superior to IG clubs, especially after Zhu Kai joined, the training arrangements for the players are well-organized, and there are almost no cases of being late or doing poorly.

Under the training mode of the EDG team, the strength of the players will improve steadily, which is an inevitable situation.

Overall it looks pretty standard.

Of course, this also has disadvantages.

That is, the overall atmosphere of the EDG team is slightly heavier than that of IG.

Although professional players are essentially no different from going to work.

But the feeling of going to work in IG will be lighter, more like a few friends playing games in an Internet cafe.

On the other hand, EDG really has the feeling of going to work step by step in the studio.

Someone as active as King Ning might not be able to stand this kind of atmosphere.

Li Luo felt fine.

From joining EDG to the present, Li Luo has never mentioned the issue of command authority, but every time he discusses the content of the game with Ming Kai, Li Luo's own understanding beyond Ming Kai makes Ming Kai subtly give up the command right.

Coupled with the fact that Ming Kai is a very coquettish person in private, Li Luo quickly got acquainted with Ming Kai by using his own way of communication.

At least "Seven Sauces", "Why don't you zoom in" and "Little Bear Spreading Hands" have become common tools for Li Luo to tease Ming Kai in his daily life.

As for such teasing, Ming Kai was powerless to refute.

He is very obsessed and stubborn.

Ming Kai has always believed in a dead truth.

That is...you are the world champion, you have the final say, my honor is not as high as yours, I admit it.

When the line between Li Luo and Ming Kai is drawn, the connection with other people is naturally very simple.

The first thing EDG wants to connect with is Xiaotian and Meiko.

Xiaotian was taciturn at first after joining the team, and only communicated with Jin Gong and Li Luo.

But with Li Luo's proposal and Zhu Kai's arrangement, when Xiaotian and Meiko lined up for a period of time and branded a new account as the king of Hanbok, the relationship between the two quickly heated up.

In particular, Xiaotian's hard training fits well with the EDG team's model and suits their appetite.

After a long period of exposure to the players of EDG, the first impression of the players who are willing to train hard is quite good.

Ming Kai is like this.

Xiaotian's hard work made him pay attention to Xiaotian, and he discovered the shining points in Xiaotian. Under Li Luo's subtle guidance, Ming Kai has already led Xiaotian to develop in the direction of the sixth child.

Li Luo liked the feeling of watching his teammates grow up a little bit.

It's just that they currently lack actual combat.

In a blink of an eye, New Year's Day passed.

The busy Li Luo had no choice but to make a phone call to greet his family, and then continued to devote himself to intense training.

……

1 month 3 day.

in the afternoon.

In the training room, except for Li Luo who would make decisions, everyone in the EDG team was very quiet. Occasionally, a player would report the opponent's summoner skills and share the information he knew with his teammates.

"Old Li, this wave..."

Meiko glanced at the five players who were in a stalemate with their lineup not far away.

Today is their training match with the IG team.

The current situation is a bit anxious.

In the three training games, EDG lost the first two games with some regrets, but this did not discourage everyone in EDG.

Especially Ming Kai, who was watching the game, and the old players, Junior Junior and Meiko, who were on the field.

Losing scrims is a relatively normal thing, and there is a difference between losing and losing.

In some training matches, 10 minutes into the game, they died before the end of the laning period.

In some training matches, the opponent was pressed and beaten all the way, even if they were lucky enough to hit a wave of counterattacks, after the game was over, they could clearly understand the huge gap in strength between the two sides.

In some training matches, the two sides were evenly matched in the early stage, and even had a small advantage, but in the end they lost the match due to a certain wave of wrong decisions.

Different losses have different degrees of blow to the players' self-confidence.

A long time ago, EDG had more frequent appointments with the IG team for training matches.

At first, it was difficult for EDG to persist for 35 minutes in the hands of the IG team.

King Ning still restrained himself every time he faced Mingkai, but once he was matched up with Xiaotian, IG would use the middle field to get a strong hero and forcibly tear his mouth open.

Even though Jin Gong can resist the pressure of The shy and at the same time have an advantage in the bottom lane, IG's aggressive style of play will speed up the pace of the game a lot.

The weak compatibility of the middle and wild is an advanced problem discovered by EDG after countless training games.

This problem will only be exposed when facing IG, but it is not so obvious when facing other teams.

For half a month, Abramovich has been making tactical adjustments to the team's situation and communicating with Li Luomingkai.

In today's two games, EDG lost because the lineup characteristics they chose were similar to those of the IG team.

Facts have proved that although EDG still has a disadvantage when it gets a strong mid-field combination, this disadvantage has improved a lot compared to EDG half a month ago.

Under this kind of collision, the economic gap between the two sides in the early stage has not widened, so the competition in the later stage is the ability of the two sides to fight.

The goals in all training matches of IG and EDG are highly clear.

Kill Li Luo.

Hearing the doubts in Meiko's voice, Li Luo pondered for two seconds and then said: "Let's work hard, I'll go up and sell this wave, give them a chance, as long as I don't die, their formation will definitely be messed up."

The hero Li Luo chose for this game was Ezreal.

Ezreal, who has been strengthened again in the preseason, is undoubtedly the son of the fist.

Among the bot lane options in this version, Ezreal's early-to-mid transition is the smoothest, and because of the changes to the Goddess' Tears, the development cycle of Ezreal in the double repair stream is not so long.

The other heroes on EDG's side are Aoun in the top lane, the jungler, the Tsar of the junior middle laner, and the bull head who supports meiko.

In contrast, the IG team's hero choices are top laner Gnar, jungler Blind Sin, mid laner Zoe, two-player Jackeylove's Verus and Sapphire Blue's Luo.

If it is really delayed until the late stage, EDG's lineup will undoubtedly have more advantages.

However, most of the neutral resource dragons in this game were controlled by IG. Now that the game time has passed 35 minutes, IG is ready to look for opportunities in the ancient dragon.

With Rookie's poke they don't seem to be in a rush.

But EDG had to take on this wave of team battles.

"It's too risky, I can try to go in and drive."

Xiaotian manipulated the people and horses to wander around and said.

"listen to me."

Li Luo has his own considerations.

Although they have two methods of starting a group, Aoun and Sagittarius, IG's formation is too flexible, and they also know how threatening these two starting points of Aoun and Sagittarius are, so they deliberately spread them apart to avoid being caught. EDG took the lead and forced the opening.

The battle line is too long, and the bull's head is short, even if there is a flash, it may not be able to drive to the key point.

But it's different if someone sells it.

"Like killing me."

Li Luo recalled King Ning's temperament, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Then I will give you this chance."

Three seconds before the ancient dragon refreshes.

Zoe from Rookie initiated consumption again.

But this time, when facing Zoe who jumped up, Li Luo took the initiative to attack.

He controlled his own Ezreal, predicted Zoe's landing position, and decisively handed over his E skill [Arcane Leap] while avoiding Zoe's flying star while jumping towards the side, and his Q skill hit Zoe's big Move back a bit.

At this time, Ezreal's damage was extremely high. After QW hit Zoe, Zoe's blood volume plummeted rapidly, and was cut by as much as half.

IG's training room.

"I drive him, I drive him!!!"

King Ning yelled, and after his unmistakable Tianyinbo hit Li Luo's Ezreal, the second Q skill was handed over directly.

King Ning didn't intend to give Li Luo a chance to react, so he kicked him in the past and flashed with R in seconds!
When King Ning launched the initiative, other people from IG pressed up.

But to King Ning's surprise, he... didn't kick Ezreal!
The Raptors' tail has indeed been kicked out.

Ezreal's HP has also dropped significantly.

But following the white and golden rays of light that bloomed from Ezreal's body, Ezreal pulled out of the battlefield from the siege in an instant!
The instant gathering of the IG formation allowed meiko to seize the opportunity.

On the wall, meiko's bull's head decisively flashed into the arena, hitting four people flying in two combos!

"Fuck!"

King Ning in the IG base swears: "Is this still a human?"

No matter how fast the reaction is, it's impossible to look like it's barely moving, right? !
He watched Aoun's ult strike from far and near, and with the entry of the centaur's ult and the Tsar's thrust, the five EDG players formed a perfect team in an instant!

"Wave after wave!"

Xiaotian, who was sweating on his forehead, became excited, as if he had won a championship.

Seeing IG playing GG on the public screen, the players of EDG smiled after a long absence.

Finally, they successfully defeated IG for the first time without guaranteeing Li Luo to play four guarantees and one.

at last!

At the same time, Zhu Kai glanced at the phone, clapped his hands and said: "Okay, this training game is very good, and the hard work during this period has not been in vain. Let me tell you, just believe in yourself and you will be fine. Don’t have too much burden when playing training games, and don’t have too much burden when playing games. As a coach, I believe in you [-]%, but if you don’t even believe in yourself, wouldn’t I be a joke?”

Zhu Kai sang the white face beside him.

And Abu, who used to play the role of black face, couldn't find out the flaws that he could criticize in this training game for a while when he saw the smiling faces of the five boys.

In the past, Abu will definitely have to talk about the last wave.

Previously, the overall style of the EDG team was inseparable from the coach Abramovich.

Abramovich is not a very aggressive coach, and his coaching style also hopes that the players can win steadily.

But since the arrival of Li Luo, the style of the EDG team has also changed recently.

Many of the key regiments commanded by Li Luo would never have picked them up in the past.

However, the current EDG dares to take it.

Not only dare to pick it up, they can win it too.

This has made Abramovich reflect on his past self recently.

He gradually realized that no team's road to the championship is smooth and smooth.

Risk and opportunity coexist.

But to seize the opportunity, the first thing you need is courage.

Recalling what Li Luo said when he first came to the base, recently Abramovich's coaching style has quietly changed due to the influence of the team as a whole.

After complimenting the players, Zhu Kai took a look at the small notebook in his hand, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow is the first match of our German Cup. We will face the RW team. If we lose, we will fall into the loser's bracket. If we win, we're in the Final Four."

"Guys, don't forget that from the establishment of EDG to the present, we only lost the German Cup championship in this year's Changsha station."

"Before that, we...five crowns!"

ps: Something happened at home in the afternoon, and it was delayed for a while, so I won’t delay adding updates in the evening. Before midnight, try to be longer~
