Moba: I, Draw Card Di God!

Post-match interviews, post-match personal interviews, post-match press conferences…

After winning the championship, everyone in QG couldn’t rest immediately and continued to participate in various tasks.

Although a little tired, but because of the joy of winning the championship, let them complete these tasks one by one.

And when it was late at night, everyone saw an unusual acquaintance again.

Boss QG!

“I didn’t expect you to really lead QG to win the championship!”

Seeing Zhang Mingrui and the five players behind him, the boss of QG also seemed very excited.

“Fortunately, I chose to believe in you at the time, otherwise, you would not become champions and the hope of the LPL now!”

The boss of QG spoke loudly and his face was full of red light.

Winning this championship not only means that the QG team can continue to operate, but also means that in the next competition, it can obtain more financial income.

As a boss, how can you be unhappy? !

“Although I know that you have just won the championship prize of 1.5 million yuan, I am so happy today and decided to reward you with another 1 million yuan in my own name!”

“As for Manager Zhang, 500,000!”

Boss QG waved his hand, and said in high spirits, which made the players even more ecstatic, and thanked Boss QG for his generosity.

“By the way, there will be a celebration banquet in a while, let’s have a good celebration!”

The boss of QG laughed loudly, and stretched out his hand to give Zhang Mingrui a thumbs up. He was very grateful for his vision, and also extremely surprised by Zhang Mingrui’s vision.

After all, if it weren’t for his ability to pick people, QG wouldn’t be able to win this summer championship!

…

Crazy overnight.

The next day, Zhang Mingrui didn’t wake up until around five or six o’clock in the afternoon. It may be because he drank too much wine last night, so he was still groggy and had some headaches.

After getting up, washing my face, and sobering up, the world finally became clear.

But what happened last night was still a bit dreamy.

“Win the championship?”

“Really won the championship?”

Looking at himself in the mirror, Zhang Mingrui asked suspiciously.

When he first came to QG, Zhang Mingrui did call out his goal of winning the summer split, but in fact, he was quite aware of the difficulty of this matter.

Although my ability to “draw cards” is very strong, and my ability to understand “tactics” and “versions” is also very strong, e-sports does not necessarily succeed if you only have these basic conditions.

To be honest, the lowest goal Zhang Mingrui set for himself was to keep relegation, to ensure that QG would not be disbanded, and then slowly adjust the lineup, looking forward to the success of S7.

Unexpectedly, with his serious study of one opponent after another, the earnest sprint of the players to rank one game after another, and the hard work of everyone playing one game after another, he really achieved the goal of winning the summer competition , realized blown cowhide!

“It seems that he really won the championship!”

Thinking of this, Zhang Mingrui breathed a sigh of relief.

Throughout the summer competition, my nerves have been tense, because I know very well in my heart that hard work may not necessarily succeed, but if I don’t work hard, I will definitely not succeed!

As for the calmness in front of the media, it was just Zhang Mingrui pretending to be 21.

Just like the number one in the class said every dayI never study, but after returning home, I turn on the lights and fight at night every day. The efforts made by the QG team outside the arena are beyond the imagination of ordinary people!

“Then next, it’s the World Championship!”

Drying his face with a towel, Zhang Mingrui’s face was already full of fighting spirit.

Although the summer competition is over, it belongs to the QG team’s 2016 journey, and now it is about to enter the final sprint stage!

rest?

Take a break!

When you win the S6 World Championship, it’s never too late to rest!

Thinking of this, Zhang Mingrui immediately ordered a takeaway, then turned on the computer, and began to study the upcoming S6 World Championship.

“I’ll give you three days off. After three days, return to the base for training on time.”

But before we started, I still said a word in the group chat of the QG team.

Zhang Mingrui doesn’t need to rest. After all, his work is mental work. At most, he will be exhausted, but he will definitely not be exhausted.

However, the players are different. Facing the crazy operation of the computer every day, after a long time, the body will have problems.

They have come here throughout the summer competition, so at this time, the five contestants have more or less symptoms of frozen shoulder, tenosynovitis, and back pain.

So give them three days off to rest and relax, and then come back to prepare for the World Championship with all their heart and soul!

“Manager Niu, the passports of the whole QG team, please run around for a while, please don’t ask questions elsewhere.”

Afterwards, he contacted the deputy manager Niu whom he had hired and asked him to help him with some daily affairs of the team.

But now, passports are very important. Every year, some people will miss the World Championship due to passport issues. Zhang Mingrui doesn’t want their QG to encounter the same problem.

“No problem, Manager Zhang.”

“By the way, I have to tell you that there are several companies that want to sponsor our team. Do you think you can talk to them when you are free?”

Immediately afterwards, Manager Niu reported.

At the beginning of the summer split, no brand was willing to sponsor the QG team. After all, they were still a motley crew at the time.

However, as the QG team’s record is getting better and better, there are finally brands that want to put their brand logos on the QG team uniforms.

But without exception, all of them were rejected by Zhang Mingrui, because he knew that engaging in these business affairs in the middle of the season would definitely affect the normal training of the players.

But for the World Championships, it can actually be considered.

It’s not that it won’t affect the players’ training at this time, but because in the next month, even if there are no sponsors, Riot Games will let the players of each team cooperate with them to shoot promotional videos and sponsor advertisements wait for things.

Since this part of the time is bound to be wasted, it is better to make this part of the time more compact and accept sponsorship from several sponsors for the QG team.

And most importantly, the advertising fee for the World Championship is quite a lot!

“No hurry, it will take two days.”

But Zhang Mingrui didn’t do this right away, because there was really no rush.

He needs to confirm the time of the S6 World Championship first, and plan the training time, activity time, etc. before he can start to act!

…

The 2016 League of Legends S6 World Championship will start on September 29 and end on October 29.

The QG team needs to arrive at the Lighthouse Country at least one week in advance to adjust to the time difference and adapt to the local environment.

So the time left for the QG team to stay in the country is actually only one month when it is fully played.

Although the LPL’s S6 World Championship trials are about to start today, the world championship teams from other divisions have already been determined early.

In the North American LCS Division, the No. 1 seed TSM, the No. 2 seed CLG, and the No. 3 seed C9.

In the European LCS division, the first seed G2, the second seed H2K, and the third seed SPY.

In the LMS Division, the No. 1 seed FW and the No. 2 seed AHQ.

In the wild card division, the No. 1 seed INTZ and the No. 2 seed ANX.

As for the LCK division, the LPL division’s old enemy, even the enemy of life, this year, three more powerful teams came!

No. 1 seed ROX, No. 2 seed SKT, No. 3 seed SSG!

SKT, which won the championship at this year’s MSI, only won the runner-up in the summer split. The strength of the LCK division of this World Championship can be seen!

And if you look at it from Zhang Mingrui’s God’s perspective, if there is no QG team, then this year will be the year for SKT team to forge their triple crown!

“But it’s a pity.”

“I showed up.”

“QG has appeared!”

Zhang Mingrui chuckled, full of confidence!

After thinking about it again, I revised what I just said in the group, changing three days to two days.

“Take a two-day break, complete the sponsor’s tasks in the next one to two days, and then come back and concentrate on training!”

Zhang Mingrui said solemnly!

Although we know that it is quite difficult to beat this year’s SKT to win the championship, but we must also complete this impossible task!

…

While Zhang Mingrui was busy negotiating with several sponsors, the LPL S6 World Championship trials officially started.

Because the QG team directly won the championship, this year’s S6 World Championship trials were extremely chaotic!

RNG, the champion of the spring competition, originally got 60 points, but because of the follow-up and EDG lost in the third place game, so they only got fourth place in the summer split, and 40 points, for a total of 100 points.

As for the EDG team, the runner-up in the spring split won 40 points, but because they won the third place in the summer split and got 70 points, they overwhelmed RNG with 110 points and qualified for the second seed of the LPL!

This led to the emergence of RNG and WE among the four teams in the S6 World Championship trials!

And as expected, the finals of the trials were also contested between the two teams, and the fourth-place RNG team in the summer split defeated the runner-up team WE in the summer split, becoming the third seed of the LPL!

So far, the three teams of the LPL have been officially finalized!

The No. 1 seed, Team QG!

The second seed, EDG team!

The third seed, RNG team!

At the grand expedition ceremony, put on the brand new Conquest, LPL three teams, pointing to the S6 World Championship!

…

September 11.

Because Zhang Mingrui has assigned a lot of training tasks to the players, the five players have already trained to the point where the sky is dark, the sun and the moon are dark, and they are unconscious…

Completely forgot what an important day today is!

“Ahem, cough, well, everyone, let’s suspend the training at hand.”

Glancing at the time, Zhang Mingrui stood up from the computer and clapped his hands at the team members.

“Pause? Manager Zhang, since when did you become like my mother? Why is the game suspended?”

Uzi, who was qualifying with Xiao Ming, said a word without looking back.

“Then hurry up and call, it’s about to start in half an hour.”

Zhang Mingrui shook his head dumbfounded.

“Half an hour to start what?”

The other three people quickly finished the task at hand and asked curiously.

“You’ll find out later.”

Zhang Mingrui smiled mysteriously and began to prepare the projector and curtain.

After Uzi and Xiao Ming’s qualifying finally ended, they set up chairs, handed melon seeds, peanuts, mineral water, etc. to the team members, and turned on the projector at the same time.

“The lottery for the group stage will start soon. Take a look at our group and take a rest and relax at the same time.”

It wasn’t until this time that Zhang Mingrui finally said today’s big event!

The World Championship group stage draw!

“Wow! Is there a lottery today? I forgot!”

“What I said made me nervous all of a sudden. I hope to form a better group!”

“Netizens have said that if you want to win the championship, you can beat anyone.”

“Nonsense, co-author, do you want us to just take out Wang Bo when we are in the group stage?”

Immediately, the contestants had a heated discussion.

Zhang Mingrui smiled softly and didn’t say anything, but he was still a little nervous.

Because of this year’s situation, it’s a bit scary!

The lottery for the group stage is drawn according to the seed pool. One seed from each of the four competition areas goes to a group, and then the second seed pool is drawn, while following the avoidance principle of the same competition area.

Then a terrible thing will happen…

As the No. 1 seed, QG is very likely to draw the No. 2 seed SKT team!

This is also what the players are worried about, especially what Uzi is worried about…

It’s been four years, it’s been four years!

When I thought of the S2 World Championship four years ago, when I was beaten 0-3 by Faker, and I was at a loss when I was beaten, I would have the same blank expression that I had once again.

And this year, the fifth year, I will meet the SKT team led by Faker again!

Just when Uzi was a little nervous, Zhang Mingrui put his hand lightly on his body.

“take it easy.”

“Although what the netizens said is not completely correct, it is not completely wrong either.”

“If we meet SKT in the group stage, then we won’t meet them again before the final.”

“It would be a good thing if we didn’t meet SKT in the group stage. We can directly eliminate them in the knockout stage.”

“Aren’t you just a Faker, just fuck him and you’re done!”

Zhang Mingrui chuckled.

“That’s right, just fuck him and you’re done!”

Uzi also smiled.

And just as everyone had different expressions, the lottery ceremony officially began!

There are four guests in this year’s lottery ceremony.

S2 world champion, former TPA jungler Mistake.

Faker’s good friend, CatJack.

North American legend mid laner Scarra.

And an old acquaintance in the LPL division, the man who made the AD position an ADC, smile!

The No. 1 seed pool was quickly drawn by Scarra.

The ROX team in Group A, the QG team in Group B, the FW team in Group C, and the TSM team in Group D.

Then, Smile will draw the first batch of teams from the second seed pool.

“Heavenly and earthly smiling boss, please show up soon, please don’t draw EDG to Group A!”

“Please, please, please, don’t draw SKT to Group B!”

“Smile, I’m willing to pay the price of jj being ten millimeters shorter, in exchange for the result of you drawing one of the two wild cards to Group B!”

“Are you stupid? The wild cards are all from the No. 3 seed pool.”

On the TV, when smiling and slowly stretching their hands into the team’s ball, all the audience in the LPL who were watching the lottery ceremony were all tensed up, even more nervous than watching the finals!

The next moment, the smile finally took outTake the first ball!

Then, slowly open…

Team G2!

“Huh!”

A breath of relief resounded from all over the country. Everyone expressed their gratitude. If EDG entered Group A, it would be quite miserable, and they had to face LCK big brother ROX.

Now the happiest are the fans of EDG, because if they don’t go to Group A, EDG won’t be able to go to Group B either, so they will face FW or TSM soon… As long as they are not in the LCK, there is no need to worry too much!

The fans of EDG relaxed, but the fans of QG became nervous.

Because the next one drawn by Smile is QG’s opponent.

Smiling and reaching in!

Smiling and touching the ball!

Smiling and took out the ball!

A smile opened the ball!

And when the smile opened the note inside, the three letters suddenly appeared in front of everyone’s eyes!

SKT!

…

Hiss!

A gasp sounded again from all over the country.

The thing that QG fans, and all LPL fans were most worried about, still happened!

In the group stage, the QG team will have a head-to-head confrontation with the SKT team!

“What kind of luck is smiling?!”

“Is the smile intentional?!”

“Does Smile want QG to die?!”

“I see, QG beat WE in the finals, so I smiled and brooded, and then directly drew SKT to Group B!”

Immediately afterwards, there was another sound of indiscriminate abuse!

Although QG is the champion of the LPL, and SKT is only the runner-up of the LCK, when the two collide, the LPL fans can’t help but get nervous no matter how confident they were before.

Because in the past four years, oh no, in the past four and a half years, the deterrence that LCK has given to LPL is too great!

So much so that the entire LPL has made “resisting Korea” the goal of the entire competition area!

But four and a half years have passed? How many times have you successfully resisted Korea?

OMG got zero seals for NJ White Shield once.

In 2015 MSI, EDG defeated SKT 3-2 once.

and then?

there is none left!

In my memory, it’s more like the LPL’s fiasco to the LCK!

The most recent one was the 2016MSI which ended a few months ago.

Team RNG, the champion of the spring competition, once again met SKT in the semi-finals, but in the end, they lost 1-3!

And now, the nightmare of LPL is coming again…

On TV, when Xiao Xiao realized that he had drawn SKT, his expression froze for an instant, but in order for the draw ceremony to proceed normally, he had to continue drawing.

But now, everyone in the QG team doesn’t care much about the results of the next draw, because no matter who the next two opponents are, they won’t affect the results of their QG and SKT emergence from the group stage.

“Be happy, why are your faces all frozen?”

Zhang Mingrui’s mood was still calm, but when he turned his head to look, the expressions of the team members were very ugly.

“S, SKT…”

When Xiao Ming spoke, his voice was trembling.

“What are you afraid of?”

“Isn’t it just SKT?”

Zhang Mingrui curled his lips, and immediately said in a brisk tone.

“It’s okay, the big moves I asked you to prepare are not a problem against a small SKT.”

“As for the group stage, when we played against SKT, we just played casually.”

“If you can win, you can win. If you can’t win, let it be. Anyway, in the finals, it’s time to fight them for real.”

Zhang Mingrui chuckled, although in the summer split, QG had a complete victory record.

However, it is still a bit difficult to think about not losing a game in the World Championship.

And even if they lost to SKT, it was actually a good thing.

One is to look at the opponent’s tactics while hiding moves.

The second is to make SKT look down on them, and then beat them up in the finals!

“However, if we lose to SKT in the group stage, the fans will definitely scold us…”

Immediately afterwards, Brother Holy Gun curled his lips, quite aware of the habits of LPL audiences.

You don’t necessarily praise if you win, but you will definitely scold if you lose!

“Then win, what’s the point?”

Zhang Mingrui didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, he didn’t know what they were struggling with.

“Isn’t it just a matter of preparing one or two more tactics, don’t worry!”

“You guys train hard, I’ll prepare well, and then we’ll double kill SKT in the group stage, won’t it be over?”

When the words fell, the eyes of the five team members all burst into scorching brilliance.

“That’s right, if you win, you’re done!”

“We are invincible QG. Even if we meet SKT or ROX, we have to fight until they can’t find Bei!”

“Training, training, don’t watch it, no one can stop my determination to beat SKT!”

The next moment, although the lottery ceremony was not over, the team members got up one after another and walked towards their computers.

Looking at their figures full of fighting spirit, Zhang Mingrui was very relieved, but he didn’t go straight to work like them, and he still had to watch the lottery ceremony.

It’s just that this result doesn’t look particularly friendly to the three LPL teams.

Or it can be said to be quite unfriendly!

Because this is the first time since the S2 to S6 World Championships, in the group stage,The three teams of the LPL, and the three teams of the LCK, all collide with each other in the group stage!

Except for Group D, the four teams of TSM, AHQ, CLG, and SPY have nothing to do with LPL, and the three groups of ABC are death groups for LPL!

Group A, ROX, G2, RNG, ANX.

Under the assumption that RNG will definitely not be able to beat LCK’s No. 1 seed ROX, RNG must defeat G2 and ANX in order to advance to the knockout round as the second place in the group.

However, RNG fans are relatively relaxed. After all, in the eyes of LPL audiences, European and American teams are all cheap and not worth mentioning.

Group B, QG, SKT, H2K, C9.

It can be said to be the devil’s group among devils!

Because the four top teams from the four major regions have gathered together!

But in the same way, QG fans only regard SKT as their opponent, and the European and American teams are not worried.

Group C, FW, EDG, SSG, INTZ.

For EDG fans, it is also quite difficult, because the strength of the provincial team is not weak, and EDG may not be able to win 100%.

At the same time, although SSG is the No. 3 seed in the LCK, as long as it is an LCK team, the LPL audience will acquiesce that he is better than the No. 1 seed in the LPL.

So among the three teams, EDG has the most difficult situation in qualifying!

…

“It should be my problem.”

Seeing the result of the lottery, Zhang Mingrui was speechless.

Although from my God’s perspective, S6’s LPL record is quite miserable, but it’s not so outrageous that it directly competed with all LCK teams in the group stage.

But with the emergence of QG, the wheel of history has changed again.

“Maybe it’s a good thing?”

But Zhang Mingrui is just a little bit worried. After all, although RNG and EDG have not won against QG this entire season, QG has trained them well and their strength has greatly improved.

Perhaps under such circumstances, RNG and EDG can really break out of the group stage and break into the quarterfinals? !
