Chapter 164 Holding the Cup! Chen Yiqiu: I have to consider whether this is my chance to win the trophy for the Nth time in my life
——"GG!"
"Congratulations to SKT for winning the 2016 LCK Summer Championship! Double in one year Who else would win the championship?”
“With a record of three to zero and a wonderful BO5 decisive battle, they also won the 2016 Global Finals and the number one seed in the LCK division. In the next month, they will represent the LCK division as the No. 1 seed in the biggest event at the end of the year - the S6 Global Finals! ”
"At the same time, let us congratulate ROX. Although they lost to SKT in the finals, because they ranked second in points throughout the year, they still locked in the second seed in this year's LCK and advanced to S6."
"Let us look forward to the next S6, the performance of SKT and ROX!"
The boiling scene in Seoul, the noisy auditorium, tens of thousands of people reveling and screaming.
The red team flag was waving, and SKT’s three classic subtitles and small yellow wings caught everyone’s eyes.
Everyone in SKT took off their headphones in the competition room, unable to restrain their satisfaction and excitement, and hugged each other to celebrate the double championship in a year.
Especially Lee Sang Hyuk, after winning the championship, he no longer 'maintained' his 'cold' persona, with a smile on his face and longing eyes.
——With the SKT in front of him, he truly saw the hope of defending the S-League double crown and winning the third S-League championship in his career!
“Nice!”
“Thank you for your hard work, everyone.”
“Huh...I’m so tired from fighting today.”
Kkoma and others rushed in competition room, encouraging the players in turn.
Pei Junzhi stretched his waist and expressed his feelings about today's finals.
Although it was three to zero, I felt very tired for no reason. This was due to the fatigue of being highly focused on the strength of my opponent and not making any mistakes.
Now that the finals are over, after winning, apart from the joy of winning, there is only a deep sense of weariness.
“It’s a holiday, we’re on a holiday.”
Kkoma restored Bae Junzhi to his original state with just one sentence, which is comparable to a miracle doctor who can rejuvenate.
"Ah, suddenly I feel like life is full of excitement."
"You're right. It would be even better if I could spend a wonderful holiday with host Ji Sun and have hotpot and grill some Korean beef. It’s wonderful.”
Li Zaiwan’s tone was filled with sourness, and he teased his old partner mercilessly.
"Hahaha..."
Everyone laughed.
Chen Yiqiu and Li Sanghyuk looked at each other.
"S competition, No. 1 seed."
"Well, S competition, No. 1 seed, and... the future champion top laner."
Lee Sang Hyuk's teeth , everyone walked to the ROX competition room to shake hands.
At this moment, the ROX competition room is calmer than expected.
After all, although they lost, they also advanced to S6.
——Advancing to the S competition is the biggest gain and effort of every team in the world in a year.
And they know how they lost today. At least they personally believe that compared to hard power, they are not weaker than SKT, and they have a chance to take revenge in the S game.
"Come on, we really want to see you in the S game now."
Smeb had complicated eyes when hugging Chen Yiqiu.
"Why, did you think we couldn't advance before?"
Chen Yiqiu glanced at him sideways.
“That’s not the case, the main thing is...oh, forget it.”
Song Jinghao didn’t finish.
He felt sad when he saw that Chen Yiqiu was expected to win the S Championship trophy just one year after his debut!
"Brother Yiqiu, the big stage of S6 is my first World Championship. I want to dye my hair. What do you think?"
Here, Little Peanut was already excited to ask Chen Yiqiu for his opinion.
"I heard that gray hair is more popular in the United States recently? I'm thinking about whether to try it..."
The time was short, and Chen Yiqiu didn't have time to say more, so he just nodded and said: "Okay, that's fine. , I will elaborate on it later.”
After walking out of the competition room, facing the roar of tens of thousands of spectators chanting SKT and his own ID, Chen Yiqiu took a deep breath inexplicably.
An idea came to mind.
The stage of the S competition will be ten times and a hundred times bigger than it is now. With such a splendid and splendid stage, under the spotlight, should you also consider improving your personal image?
Getting a haircut with Little Peanut?
Hmm... You can bring Lee Sang Hyuk with you.
Looking at the melon-skinned head next to him that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, Chen Yiqiu wanted to laugh inexplicably.
"Are you looking at me doing something crazy? This look..."
Brother Li was a little wary and felt that Chen Yiqiu's eyes were filled with strange colors.
"It's okay, I thought of something happy."
Chen Yiqiu kept silent for fear of being bullied by the team bully.
At this moment, the on-site BGM has become an exciting and passionate championship exclusive.
Under the silver-white spotlight, everyone from SKT came to the center of the stage, next to the championship trophy.
"Hold the cup, everyone. This is our third championship trophy this year, but it will never be the last one."
Li Zaiwan prayed in a deep voice, dressed in red. The five SKT players worked together to win the summer championship trophy.
Besides you are LCK official photographers, directed by Chen Yiqiu, and the professional team of Riot Documentaries, who are taking close-ups and capturing various materials of "Legend in Prosperity".
With the cheers of everyone, we reached the top of summer.
"Let us congratulate SK Telecom T~~~1 again!"
The iconic roar sounded. The Roar Emperor in the commentary box had already changed into a dark blue suit and walked with Zhao Enjing in a white dress on the other side. He walked onto the stage and came to everyone in SKT with a smile on his face.
“Double championship in one year, this is really an incredible achievement.”
“In this year, T1 has experienced personnel changes and signings at the beginning of the year, and has suffered criticism and distrust. , but now we have an almost perfect answer sheet, let’s ask player Faker..."
Before Roaring Emperor finished speaking, the court was already boiling like a pot of oil.
Li Sang Hyuk adjusted his glasses, looking too serious.
If you ignore that he peeked at Zhao Enjing’s legs just now...
“Well, player Lee Sang Hyuk has been emphasizing before that you will definitely win this year. Where does this confidence come from? , where did it come from?”
Roaring Emperor asked with a smile.
“It comes from my belief in my own strength and my teammates.”
Lee Sang Hyuk said solemnly: "No one knows better than me how strong we are now. Although the next S game will bring together all the strongest and best teams in the world, I believe we can make it to the end."
“This will be a wonderful journey.”
“Confidence makes people charming, and Lee Sang Hyuk is a very charming player.”
The Roaring Emperor nodded and then asked Said: "Speaking of the S competition, everyone knows that you have won two S competition championship trophies before. Well... it is an incredible achievement, two world champions."
"And now , this year will be your challenge for the third S championship. Fans want to see you create a triple crown dynasty. This is a shocking feat. Do you have anything to say to the fans and viewers? ”
Lee Sang Hyuk: "We will do our best to achieve the third S-game championship."
Wow.
The crowd could no longer contain the cheers.
Triple crown champion, SKT, for the current LCK, this is a "sacred" mission full of historical significance.
If successful, SKT will truly become the number one team in the league, unprecedented in history, and perhaps unmatched in the future.
Being in this majestic dynasty, as the ‘newcomer’ of the dynasty, Chen Yiqiu became the second interview guest to win the championship.
“Reaper.”
Zhao Enjing paused for a moment, and when the audience’s “ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”” Now it’s time to move towards the biggest thing in your career The goal and dream are launched."
"How do you feel now?"
"The S game championship is the highest honor, it is what every professional player in the world dreams of and pursues throughout his life. Achievements.”
Chen Yiqiu originally wanted to say, 'I must consider that this may be the only opportunity in my life. ’
But considering that Lee Sang Hyuk is standing next to him, and there are many strong teammates, including his own state and strength...
Well...this is the only one in this life, although it is very appropriate now.
But if I say it out loud, I'm afraid people will make fun of me and change it to something like "I have to consider that this may be my Nth chance to win the trophy in my life."
P a profile picture of Lee Sang Hyuk, saying this to himself, he could already imagine the picture.
"Well... I am eager for the stage and world events. Because I have only played in the LCK League and MSI before, many global audiences will not know me well. This time, I will let everyone know me and get to know me." Likewise. Confident words, different from Li Sang Hyuk's calmness, Chen Yiqiu's tone is more determined and full of vitality.
In line with the official positioning given to him - only one year since his debut in the LCK division, he is the super top laner aiming to win the S6 championship!
“Wow…”
The LCK scene was filled with loud noises and the atmosphere was explosive.
The barrage in the LPL broadcast room was filled with question marks, "Shuai Shuai Shuai", mixed with other voices.
[No, Chen Sheng, you also played in the LPL! 】
【Woo woo woo, Chen Sheng, my Chen Sheng, is it directly cut off from LPL now? 】
【Crazy Chen Sheng! I like! 】
【LPL is crying to death, don’t you even mention it? 】
[But the fact is that you have played in the LPL before. 】
The audience and fans were shouting wildly, and some sensitive viewers caught Chen Yiqiu's "words" and were dissatisfied with why he didn't mention LPL alone, and whether he was "targeting" the LPL competition region.
Of course, under the influence of winning the LCK championship for the second time, it is difficult for these to enter the mainstream.
And what Chen Yiqiu said next was even crazier than this sentence.
Roaring Emperor: "So in this S6 finals, all the top top laners in the world will be gathered together. Do you have any opponents you want to play against? Are there any players worth noting?"
Chen Yiqiu: "I'm usually busy training and I don't pay much attention to the players. I think I will be the strongest top laner in this S6 Global Finals."
Boom!
After saying that, not only the LCK scene, but also the countless spectators, teams, and top laners from various major regions who were watching the championship interview were all in an uproar.
There are not many players who pay attention to me, but I am the strongest this year.
This is the most 'confident' moment in Chen Yiqiu's career.
The previous Reaper always gave people the impression of being gentle and modest, with the air of a gentleman from an ancient oriental country, which was admirable.
And now, he finally has a trace of the edge that he deserves at this moment. In the first year of his debut, he won the double championship of the world's No. 1 division.
On the day I win the championship, I will point my sword at all the top laners this year. If you don’t accept it, you will beat me on the World Championship stage.
He is now qualified to do so because he has won all major league titles so far this year!
Lee Sang Hyuk looked sideways at Chen Yiqiu beside him, his eyes were quite nostalgic, as if he saw himself not long after his debut.
At that time, he... conducted interviews in various languages, which was much more "violent" than Chen Yiqiu.
"Yiqiu seems to be getting more and more confident... Maybe he has something in his heart. When he wins the world championship... he will reach the peak of his career."
Think of it Lee Sang Hyuk was silent about the grand occasion and heartfelt experience when he reached the top of S3.
It is rare to be energetic and excited.
In this way, the atmosphere exploded. Next, other SKT players also accepted interviews from the two LCK hosts one by one and gave their own winning speeches.
Later, in countless shots, surrounded by thousands of cheers from the audience, the six SKT players dressed in red left a classic group photo on this stage.
......
Afterwards, everyone in SKT continued to accept interview invitations from different media from major competition regions/countries around the world, including various business cooperation invitations, Korean variety show invitations, and domestic live broadcasts. Platform signing and so on.
——Winning the trophy in the summer, the No. 1 seed is aiming for S6. It is the favorite to win the championship and is very hopeful to win the third S championship.
Obviously, from this moment on, the SKT dynasty has entered the stage of 'rapid development' and 'collecting generous returns in advance' ahead of schedule.
No matter how many strong teams there are this year and the powerful ones can threaten them, everyone is obviously still very optimistic about the current peak SKT team winning the world championship.
At the same time.
The outside world.
As the LCK Summer Split Finals came to an end, news about SKT’s championship and interviews with various media spread rapidly around the world.
LPL Division.
As half of SKT’s ‘mother-in-law’, SKT has always been known as ‘LCK’s own all-Chinese team’.
Hot searches soared, and posts were hotly discussed.
《How to evaluate SKT 3:0ROX and win the LCK Summer Championship? 》
[My evaluation is, Enter the Dragon, the end of the LPL. 】
[Although ROX lost, the strength of the Tigers can be seen. In this year’s World Championship, the darkest moment of LPL has officially arrived! 】
[Don’t brag, how much stronger is it to be beaten three to zero? At the level of ROX, EDG and RNG are absolutely inferior. 】
[Indeed, there are still people bragging about the team that was defeated three to zero. Chen Za really won, and Han Za occupied the post, right? 】
[ROX was defeated three to zero. SKT didn’t play anything at all in this final, it was just a crushing game. Our LPL has introduced so many world champions this year. EDG and RNG are really not much weaker than the LCK teams. EDG didn't beat you SKT last year? 】
【Finally, someone told the truth. After this year’s MSI, the forums were all filled with Korean miscellaneous content, and the S-game was unanimously open to the outside world. I beg these rare people to get out, they don’t deserve to be Chinese! 】
Since ROX lost to SKT 0-3 this year, most viewers of the LPL felt that the Tigers were not as strong as they boasted. If they were really evenly matched, they would still win a game.
Now that they haven't won a single game, and there are still so many "LCK fans" advocating the doomsday of all LPL teams, they suddenly rebelled against each other.
The controversy that had been building up for more than half a year broke out.
——The S competition is different from all other competitions. This is the real world competition. Every year in the S competition, everyone in the LPL region must communicate to the outside world in unison... Although so far, it has not really been done. But the trend is still there.
This time, Chen Yiqiu fans are not facing RNG fans, but fans of all LPL including EDG+WE+IG+LGD.
Almost equal to the audience of the entire LPL competition area.
"People's hearts can be used, morale can be used, so why be afraid?!"
EDG Club.
Abu observed the public opinion on the Internet, full of confidence and smug.
He knows that SKT, ROX, and the LCK division are very strong, but since the beginning of this year, they have not played against SKT for the entire season, let alone played an official game with other LCK teams.
As the saying goes, you can only know if it works after playing. Didn’t they win MSI?
As the only team in the LPL region that has beaten SKT to win the championship on the international stage, EDG is the big brother of the LPL region!
How can you say defeat before fighting? No matter how strong SKT and LCK are, they will do their best to help LPL win its first world championship.
Not for anything else... just for those white money, and you can't lose.
Of course, before that, he had to 'counse' Ming Kai's mental state to make him more confident and stable in this year's S competition.
……
"You are the strongest in this year's S competition... Such a crazy tone."
Bai Xing squinted at the edited video of Chen Yiqiu's interview, which has been viewed more than 3 million times, with gloomy eyes and an impulse in his heart.
He turned back to Su Xiaofei and said: "Tell the players that we will try our best in this year's S competition, and the final result...the top four will be considered a success."
"But as long as we can beat SKT once, everyone will The bonus will be doubled. If SKT is eliminated, the salary will be doubled next year!"
"...Good boss"
Su Xiaofei was secretly surprised.
Mr. Bai really misses her, he loves Chen Yiqiu so much.
Chen Yiqiu is truly an unprecedented 'saint' who can allow professional vampires to make such a decision!
Of course... If we are really assigned to SKT in the group stage, maybe there is still a chance to win in BO1. After all, it is just one game, and there are many conditions that affect the outcome.
SKT can be eliminated by BO5…
Hmm... He thinks that unless all members of SKT enter the LPL girlfriend transfer period in advance, it will probably be a big deal.
"Of course, before that, we have to win the championship of this summer split first."
When Bai Xing saw Su Xiaofei nodding, he told the team what they needed to prepare for most.
LPL Summer Split Champion.
Because the LCK finals schedule is slightly earlier than the LPL, today is the LCK finals, and tomorrow is the LPL finals.
RNG vs EDG.
"Okay, boss, don't worry, we will win the championship this year, EDG is a thing of the past!"
Su Xiaofei is confident that he will win.
They now have the world’s number one ADC, Uzi!
The next day, RNG lost to EDG with a score of 0:3, and was crushed by EDG to win the championship.
After the game, after winning the championship and receiving the trophy, all members of EDG were in high spirits. After more than half a year, the director finally stood at the center of the stage again, enjoying the highest honor and cheers in the competition area.
The mood is exciting and full of ambition.
Faced with host Yu Shuang’s provocative question, he remained as cool as last year and said confidently: “We most want to meet SKT in this year’s S tournament.”
"Because I defeated them at MSI before, I'm not too worried."
"SKT's promotion will not have much impact on us."
