Chapter 268 [The return of King Ning]

The time will soon come to December 5th.

At nine o'clock in the morning, after a brief lunch, the players and the coaching staff all loaded up their suitcases and got on the team bus and rushed to the airport.

On the plane, everyone else in IG had not gone abroad for the first time. They looked very calm sitting in their chairs. Only Lin Weixiang and Liu Qingsong looked extremely excited.

Riot Games officials are only responsible for the money from the hilarious economic position, and the IG team is also not short of money. Su Xiaoluo decisively paid for everyone's first-class position with his own money.

It is very comfortable to sit and eat.

Looking at the large white clouds outside the window, Lin Weixiang asked, "Master Shi, have you ever been abroad before?"

"no!"

Liu Qingsong rolled his eyes, a little impatient with his partner's idiotic question, "We have been playing together in the Internet Cafe League since we were 15 years old. How the hell do I have time to go abroad!"

Lin Weixiang was still immersed in the novelty of going abroad, and rarely quarreled with Liu Qingsong, "I heard that the beauties in Brazilian nightclubs are not open!"

"Haha," Master Tie sneered, "I heard that the gangs over there are more open-minded. Do you want to give it a try?"

"Miss, could you please stop the plane in the air? I feel like vomiting."

When the flight attendant saw the big, thick eyebrows, she knew that the other person was a not very smart kid, so she didn't pay much attention to him, and it wasn't easy to quarrel with him.

After all, she was a first-class passenger, so if she was complained, her wages would be deducted.

After more than an hour, the novelty of these two things finally wore off, and Li Qin was finally able to calm down a little.

The flight from Shanghai to Brazil, including the transfer time, took a full 27 hours. Without Internet, I could only rely on pre-downloaded novels and movies to pass the time.

Chu Ge and Tabe got together, turned on their tablets, and began to look at the opponents they thought were the most threatening this time.

G2 and SKT!

"Although SKT has changed players, they still play like S6."

After watching the first game of the LCK finals several times, Tabe said thoughtfully, "Kakao's style has changed a lot since joining SKT. He used to be a carnivorous jungler, but now he seems to have opened the mirror bag left by a stupid chicken. .”

"The thief will keep it! The rhythm is basically played by Faker and Wolf. I feel it's even scarier than SKT last year."

"Not necessarily."

Chu Ge smiled and said, "Duke is indeed very stable, but his condition is obviously not as good as last year. As for the other Huni, I think he should be better than 957."

Although they have not officially played against each other on the court, the two have met in training matches, and by studying the videos, he really knows that Huni is not that strong.

It's probably because of his attitude that his value has been raised, which is why clubs in various divisions now feel that Huni is a strong player.

Seeing this, Tabe reminded, "Don't underestimate the enemy. SKT's operational capabilities are still terrifying, and their resilience is really strong."

This is true.

Chu Ge and the others almost overturned in the finals last year. This team may often suffer in the early and mid-term offense, but once it reaches the mid-to-late stage.

That is, he is as steady as an old dog, and it is difficult to find his flaws.

This season, SKT gave the audience the illusion that even if they fell behind too far in the early and mid-term, they could still complete a comeback.

This is especially true after they got the Galio system. Most of the mid laners in the LCK are technophobic. Trying to restrict him is like being in trouble in a solo game online.

And
Tabe and Chu Ge only watched one game in the Spring Finals. In fact, starting from the regular season, when KT played against SKT, they had a huge advantage in almost every step.

This means that SKT's early rhythm ability is not top-notch.

However, after the laning period ended, SKT was always able to rely on various just-in-time support and rhythm to continuously exchange resources and stabilize the economy bit by bit.

Finally, use excellent teamwork and AD's robust teamfight output ability to achieve a comeback.

It’s still their favorite style of play last year, defensive counterattack!

"Our early attacks may not cause too many problems," Tabe worried, "but you also know that the more attacks we attack, the more flaws will be exposed."

"What SKT are best at is catching their opponents' mistakes."

"I'm not worried about you going to the middle and jungle. The two guys in the bottom lane still lack some experience in competitions and may become a breakthrough for the opponent."

"Another point, we should also pay attention to the G2 team. We don't need to look at them with the mindset of G2-8."

Tabe thought for a moment and continued his analysis, "It's inevitable that they will come up with something new and catch us off guard."

"Row."

Chu Ge nodded and didn't say much else.

Compared with last year's IG lineup, at least the middle and lower double Cs are all old people. Wuxin has experience in MSI, so it is easy to adjust his mentality.

Even if Baolan is a new player, there is someone who can lead him to grow quickly.

You can get off the road at home.

Liu Qingsong is not too worried. He has been given the role of commanding the team and needs to stabilize his emotions. He has long overcome this.

Only Lin Weixiang.
This kid didn't have the strength to win the FPX championship back then, and he always had some whims that led to his sudden death. If he hadn't carried LWX's ID, Chu Ge would have really thought that Jack had taken possession of him.

The teams that can participate in MSI are all champions of each region, and they have only entered after brutal eliminations and competitions.

How could he be the leader in his own division without two talents?

And although the European and American divisions are ridiculed by the LPL as European and American money-grabbing, we have to admit that this group of people is very artistic, especially the LCS division, which always manages to create something unexpected.

After 27 hours on the plane, in the early morning of May 5, Brazilian time, they finally saw land.

Liu Qingsong and Lin Weixiang changed their previous excitement and wanted to offend when they saw the bus sent by Riot.

I still need to take a car!
It was more than an hour after arriving at the hotel. When he entered the room, the first thing Chu Ge did was to rush into the bathroom and take a good shower.

Then lie down on the soft bed and have a good sleep.

When Prince Ning didn't come, Xiao Huanhua stayed in the same room as Chu Ge. After the two of them finished, they collapsed on the bed tiredly and fell asleep quickly.

As for jet lag.
That's what happens later, the dog's life is at stake.

The next day.

Chu Ge and his party slept until noon, then got up one after another. After briefly tasting the local delicacies at the hotel, they got on the Riot bus again and headed to the competition venue.

The qualifying round is now underway, so naturally Chu Ge and the others are not running there to watch the match, but to play in a training match.

No way, Riot did not set up a temporary training room in the hotel for this MSI in Brazil. Training can only be carried out in the lounges of each team.

But fortunately
Chu Ge and the others were all people who had gone through the Banana Project. They even played training matches in the Internet Fishing Cafe to prepare for the summer finals.

There was not much reaction to this.

From the beginning of the Spring Finals until now, they have not played a training match for almost ten days, and even Chu Ge has very little time to play in Rank.

He was exhausted from all kinds of activities and filming, but every time he participated in an activity, he received money into his account, which made Chu Ge feel miserable and happy.

But from a career perspective, this is not a good thing.

There are only 4 days until the start of the group stage. They must hurry up and start training, otherwise they will not be able to keep up with the version.

After registering, Su Xiaoluo started communicating with everyone and soon helped them make an appointment for a training match.

In fact, there is no need to look for it. As IG is the favorite to win the championship this time, other teams will take the initiative to come over. Even SKT, who was extremely proud last year, came over to arrange a training match with IG.

Su Xiaoluo rejected them twice.

But these guys are really thick-skinned, as if S6's rejection of IG's training match last year never happened.

But well.

They still played a training match with SKT.

After all, everyone is the favorite to win the championship, so it is appropriate to get to know each other first.

A few days passed in a flash.

The life of Chu Ge and his team maintained two points and one line, the hotel and the competition venue. Even the substitute Ning Wang who brought this time had to follow them.

As for why you brought Prince Ning?

After KWG was separated, the two teams made personnel adjustments. King Ning had played in the spring regular season, and none of the other players had played.

So much so that they had to get Prince Ning over first, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to meet the registration requirements for 6 people.

As for how the summer games will be redistributed, it probably depends on whether Su Xiaoluo is mentally ill.

What if Chu Ge is adjusted to KWG?

Fortunately, everyone's adaptability is very good. Even the two newcomers have adjusted their schedules and training very well, and no one is acclimated.

After four consecutive days of high-intensity training matches, IG and others finally found the rhythm of the game, and Ning Wang also began to officially rotate with Xiaohuahua.

Don't say it.

The reunion of the champion Ueno made Tabe feel that IG seemed to have become stronger.

no way.

Including IG's current player lineup, there are four core positions. Peanut is also a big resource hog, and Liu Qingsong has to take care of four big boys.

But Prince Ning was different.

Although he confirmed his playing style last year, he actually doesn't eat too much resources. Instead, he likes to go to the opponent's house to hunt for wild monsters.

And
During his time in KWG, because Theshy and Chu Ge played similar styles, he practiced often in LSPL.

The result of the training match was that we lost less and won more, but everyone didn't take it to heart.

The main reason is to get back the feeling on the court. In addition, the exchange of Xiaohuahua and King Ning will also change the team's style.

Liu Qingsong still has to adapt.

SKT's training matches were just so-so. After more than a dozen games, both sides could feel that the other side was hiding its strength and could not achieve the desired effect of the real training matches.

Tabe and Kkoma are probably both scolding each other for their old silver coins.

The king of this year's MSI scrims is not the former North American cult TSM, but has become the flash wolf of the LMS division.

During this period of time, they had an undefeated record and became the well-deserved king of training matches. They even began to imagine the moment when they stood on the podium.

However.
Their no-holds-barred style of play also allowed everyone to figure out his routines. It is estimated that the reputation of Kang Qixia will not be retained at MSI this year.

5 month 10 day.

FW, TSM and GAM from Vietnam successfully advanced to MSI, and the six teams participating in the group stage have officially arrived.

5 month 11 day.

The MSI group stage has officially begun.

Chu Ge and the others arrived at the competition venue three hours early at the request of the organizer.

Compared with last year's MSI in Shanghai, the opening ceremony of this year's MSI was a bit bad, and it seemed like they were trying to complete the task.

But well.
The answer with high emotional intelligence is that it is full of local characteristics.

After the opening, the five teams took the stage one after another under the introduction of the host.

SKT, the last MSI champion, stood in the center of the stage, and Faker stood at the front, holding the MSI trophy and waving his arms.

He has become the protagonist.

Although IG won last year's S competition, the gold content of the two is different. Even if you win three MSI championships, there will always be Krdog asking you what kind of champion you are.

Chu Ge raised the corner of his mouth and thought to himself.

Faker, this will be the last highlight moment of your career, right?After this MSI, you will also have to step down from the altar.

After the opening ceremony, Chu Ge and others returned to the backstage lounge under the arrangements of the staff.

first game.

It's SKT versus G2.

IG's game was scheduled for the second game, and its opponent was the Flash Wolf in this training match.

Backstage.

Everyone sat together, drank Brazilian white Coke, and watched the first game together.

The bans of both sides in this game were very regular. The strong points of Kenan, Shen, Murloc, Jace and Lulu were not released.

There are no surprises in this game, there really are no surprises.

SKT maintained a full rhythm throughout the game. Even if they were not good at the early game, they pinned G2 to the ground and rubbed them against each other, highlighting the strength gap between the two sides.

Although the game ended in 40 minutes, SKT's suffocating style of play still made many domestic viewers worried.

[This version is really not suitable for IG’s performance, and the impact of the top lane on the game’s proportion has dropped crazily]

[It can be seen that Riot is increasing the priority of the bottom lane, and the jungle blind monk has become popular again in this version]

[IG has been on a roll all spring, can’t they kill SKT now that summer is approaching? 】

[I still believe in our Director Dow, he is the key to victory]

As the first game ended, Tabe clapped his hands and said, "Bring your peripherals, it's time for us to go to the World Championship!"

Hearing this, Chu Ge and the others stood up and picked up their peripherals.

And this time, the starting jungler is King Ning.

on the commentary.

When Guan Zeyuan received the roster of IG players, his eyes widened immediately, "We have received news that King Ning will represent IG as a jungler on MSI!"

These words immediately made the audience uneasy.

Especially the audience who just saw the five-person IG event some time ago began to feel restless.

"Our favorite top and jungle combination is about to take the stage again," Su Xiaoyan said with a smile. "I guess other teams are confused. How come they have studied IG for a season."

"When it came time to play the game, the jungler turned into a different person, and he was still the world champion jungler last year!"
