Chapter 256 LPL in action, be sure to bring back Chen Sheng for his MSI debut

This MSI group stage will be held on May 11th.

After arriving in Sao Paulo, SKT did not rest for too long and quickly plunged into intense and rigorous special training.

It lasted until the opening on the 11th, which was a slight relief from this crazy special training state.

Of course, this is not because of the kindness of the SKT coaching staff, but because the timeline has reached the official opening day of MSI.

On the 11th, six o'clock in the morning local time.

SKT went downstairs to eat, and met the LPL people again in the restaurant downstairs.

This is not the first time they have met the LPL people.

Because the rooms booked in the official hotel are very close to each other, and there is a restaurant on this floor of the hotel, so recently, not only SKT and LPL, but also players from teams from all major competition regions around the world have often met here. .

After several meetings, everyone in the LPL who was still very curious about SKT gradually became accustomed to and adapted to the existence of this legendary team.

"Yiqiu, play well today, the first match of MSI debut."

Letme waited until everyone else went to eat before taking the time to get in front of Chen Yiqiu.

After spending a few days together, the two of them have returned to the original way of getting along.

In general, even if Chen Yiqiu occasionally spoke harshly to Bai Yun, Bai Yun listened stupidly and did not dare to refute.

"You guys should work hard too...I'm sorry, RNG didn't advance this year, so WE should work harder."

Chen Yiqiu nodded with a smile.

Letme: "?"

"Yi Qiu, although I don't have much favorable impressions of the RNG management, but it's really okay for you to say that in front of me."

"No, no, no... By the way, do you want to eat fried dough sticks? I specifically communicated with them two days ago. They are all bought from Chinatown."

Chen Yiqiu picked up two fried dough sticks. , motioned to Baiyun.

"I won't eat anymore. I've been a little constipated recently and don't want to eat anything too oily."

Letme shook her head sincerely.

"That's a pity."

Chen Yiqiu was thoughtful. The two of them prepared a meal and found a seat to sit down together. He raised his head and asked: "By the way, these days How is the effect of your special training? "

"With so many LPL teams helping WE with the special training, the effect should be good, right?"

"Are you 'inquiring about the enemy's situation' from me?"

Letme smiled, quite proudly.

“Do you think WE will be our opponent?”

Chen Yiqiu asked back.

Letme raised an eyebrow: "That's not necessarily true, Yiqiu."

"If you had said this before, I would have accepted it, but this time our LPL has gathered the resources and strength of the entire region, and WE are not weaklings. They defeated RNG three to zero in this spring split, which is comparable to your record in the LCK. The same honor.”

“Me. I think you really need to be careful, brother... Although I haven't had the chance to train with them, looking at WE's current strength and effectiveness, and backup tactics... it's really too much."

Chen Yiqiu nodded and said. That's enough. I didn't continue to inquire about these things.

"Oh...there is one more thing, brother, I need to remind you."

Letme is a good brother. Seeing that Chen Yiqiu didn't ask any more questions, he thought of another very important thing, I looked around and found that no one was paying attention here, then I lowered my head and whispered: "Recently... someone may be 'harassing' you. Please pay more attention to yourself."

"Sexy...harassment?"

Chen Yiqiu was stunned and failed to understand what Letme meant at the first time.

"Hey...just...you know."

Letme scratched his head anxiously, then said directly: "Do you really think that LPL has spent so much effort this time, just To win the championship?”

“…Or, in addition to wanting to defeat you, it also has other purposes.”

"...You mean, it has something to do with me?"

Chen Yiqiu understood.

“That’s all I can say. If I say more, I won’t be able to survive.”

Letme sighed, her tone was sad, a bit sad for spring and autumn: “Yiqiu Ah... As the saying goes, home is a safe haven. In fact, LPL has always been your home... Everyone wants you to come back. "

At this point, it would be strange if Chen Yiqiu didn't understand.

LPL has always been your home and everyone wants you back.

It seems that the LPL officials are determined to take advantage of this rare international competition to have more direct contact with Chen Yiqiu.

Not saying that Chen Yiqiu will come back immediately, at least we should keep the possibility of the new season open.

Otherwise, as Chen Yiqiu continues to rise higher and higher, the pressure from LPL officials will gradually become unimaginable.

It is even possible that Jin Yibo will be dismissed from Penguin Headquarters.

"Okay, I understand, thank you, Junze."

Chen Yiqiu could feel the risk of Letme saying these words, and thanked him very solemnly.

"Hey, why are you so polite to me? You don't know..."

Letme's tone was cheerful and a little inexplicably excited: "Since we met before, everyone knows that I and I After your relationship is so close …Oh, the one who caught me and asked me all kinds of questions changed his attitude towards me completely.”

“Brothers didn’t get this kind of treatment before. Even Bai Laoden was polite to me. It’s a lot, just tell me, brother has a long face.”

"Haha, if you need me, I can come a few more times."

If Letme can feel better, Chen Yiqiu is not stingy with his help.

Besides... didn't you just say a few more words to him in front of the crowd?

The importance LPL places on him is really beyond his imagination.

To be precise, it should be that Chen Yiqiu still lacks a certain degree of understanding of his current status internationally and in the LPL competition area.

After all, it has been a year and a half since he left the LPL, and half a year has passed since the winter switch.

Half a year ago, his impression of the LPL and his popularity in the LPL region were still the same as half a year ago.

But in half a year, in the e-sports circle that was changing so quickly, he couldn't understand it in detail.

It’s really inconvenient to be abroad.

Besides, he is usually so busy during training and competitions that he has no time to study these things carefully.

The two talked for a while and had breakfast. Someone from SKT already came over to call Chen Yiqiu.

The LPL side is similar.

The time is up, it’s time to set off.

Chen Yiqiu said goodbye to Letme and returned to the team, and then everyone boarded the bus to the venue of this year's MSI group stage.

……

The 2017 MSI Mid-Season Championship Invitational Tournament, like the Play-In Tournament, will be held at the CBLOL Studio in Sao Paulo.

After arriving at the venue, everyone from SKT quietly entered the backstage lounge.

Despite this, many foreign fans who had already gathered outside the venue early along the way were captured. The cheers and screams never stopped wherever they passed along the way.

In contrast, other teams from the same region did not receive this treatment from SKT.

As the team with the most popularity, the most honors, and the most fans in the league today, SKT has unparalleled dominance overseas.

This can be seen from the fact that there are so many SKT fans in the LPL division. To put it bluntly, most people in this world respect the strong, and if the strong can maintain their dominance, their fans will grow more and more until they become true history. A dynasty team.

The current SKT is actually at this level, but if they lose games one after another and lose the S championship trophy, the building will collapse, maybe in an instant. .

This is why Lee Sang Hyuk has always said that it is easy to win the championship but difficult to hold on to the position. This is the same as fighting for the country and defending the country.

“This is SKT, awesome.”

"Everywhere you go, you get this treatment. It's always the home court, right?"

Everyone in the LPL who was on the bus behind SKT felt emotional when they saw this scene.

“Yi Qiu is really awesome now, when will I be able to reach this point?”

Yan Junze looked at him eagerly, as if he was walking with wind, without looking back. Everyone from SKT who walked into the tunnel expressed their feelings.

“Haha, what is their honor and level, and what is your level? I really don’t have any AC numbers in my heart.”

When Uzi heard this, he felt inexplicably harsh and couldn't help but reply.

“…”

Letme doesn’t dare to talk back to Uzi. Since the puppy joined RNG, the team’s original core Xiaohu has long been relegated to the second line, not to mention that he was just promoted this year. Let me come up.

The same goes for spicy hotpot.

I can only say that the past was before and the present is now.

Times have changed, and the core has become a tool man. The bot lane AD is the boss of the team.

“You can’t say that. Didn’t Chen Yiqiu gain his current popularity by winning an S-level championship? Our LPL has not won an S-level championship in so many years. If anyone wins the first one, then It will definitely kill him instantly.”

Xiye said plausibly: "Especially this year's S competition is held in our country for the first time. Everyone, we will give you a preview today. You will win!"

"I am super, Xi shocked me!"< br>
“6!”

"I have to give you a thumbs up for these words!"

Everyone in the carriage felt a lot more energetic when they heard this.

No one wants to look up to others all the time, especially if there is one of their compatriots. It would be fine if SKT were all Koreans, but it is obvious that Reaper is the core of this historical SKT. core.

“Let’s go, get off the bus.”

Xiye took the lead and stepped off the bus without saying any more.

After this period of resource help from the entire competition area and the results in training matches, Xiye is now looking forward to this MSI and is extremely confident.

He has never been the kind of person who is timid in foreign battles. The more competitions he enters, the better his condition will be.

He doesn’t even believe that there really is such a victorious existence in this world. Unless it is a real god, there will always be a time when SKT will fail and even the dynasty will collapse.

So since SKT will collapse sooner or later, why can't they be the ones to bring down SKT?

Everyone walked into the backstage of the venue in high spirits.

...

At the same time, another place on the scene.

Everyone from LZ who just arrived yesterday and paid their own money to watch the game walked together and talked softly.

“Have you heard, it seems that all the strong teams in the LPL region are here this time.”

“So many people are here? What are they doing? Do you have to pay for the game as well?”
>


The Rat King was puzzled.

“NONONO.”

Grella shook his head: “They all came here to train with WE. The entire coaching staff in the division worked hard together. It’s really shocking.”

"...It's amazing, they are so united."

Khan couldn't help but click his tongue when he heard this: "The LPL is really united. There is no way we in the LCK can do this."< br>


What he said is true. Although it is different from the LPL he was in before, it is undeniable that no matter whether the LPL division wins or loses this time, the spirit of unity in other divisions is not available in the LCK for the time being.

This may also be related to the fact that LCK has always occupied most of the international championships.

The competition area is recognized as the strongest competition area in the global league. Everyone is usually very competitive and would like to beat someone's head into a dog's head.

Where can we help each other with such heart-to-heart support?

It’s good if you don’t stumble.

Of course, whether this kind of unity is of any use, or whether the LPL division is truly united this time, we have to wait until the results of this MSI come out.

"I hope they can give Wanghu some help this time. The World Championship...we didn't have the chance to get it at first. I hope he can get it and realize his dream."

Rat King and Ge Although Ruila has left the Tigers and came to LZ, the friendship between the Tigers last year will not change.

That’s why this time they paid out of their own pockets and came to support Little Peanut.

For no other reason than to witness the last remnants of the Tigers break through the regrets and shackles of the original Tigers and successfully reach the top of the world.

"It will definitely happen. They are so strong in Yiqiu. SKT...these three letters have always been legends."

Grella whistled, and at this moment, they seemed to have switched roles again.

From the position of being hostile to SKT, to the position of supporter.

This is not a contradiction. Only they, who were once SKT's biggest opponents, understand the power and terror of this SKT team.

——They will bring a dominant visual feast to the world.

"Let's go, it's time to enter, let's cheer for Wanghu together."

Everyone in LZ looked back and found that there were crowds of people behind them, striding into the venue.

……

At two o’clock in the afternoon, the MSI opening ceremony officially began.

SKT became the team that played in the finale of this opening ceremony, and they are different from other teams. After playing, Lee Sang Hyuk held the last MSI championship trophy in his hand, which heralded SKT's glory last year.

Last year, the same SKT team won the 2016 MSI Mid-Season Invitational championship, thus beginning their year-long legend of dominance.

In the passionate voice of the Brazilian host, the five SKT starters for this year's MSI appeared one after another. The spotlight shone on the seven SKT players in the center of the field wearing the new black and white team uniforms.

Everything is ready, SKT and other teams come off the stage, and the grand opening ceremony ends.

Five minutes later, the first game of this MSI officially started.

But SKT is not in the opening sequence.

This is also understandable. According to international practice, the opening match will be played by a local team.

And in order to get a good start, the host region will always arrange a weak team for its home team.

This MSI is no exception.

It lasted until the third game today, at 4:30 local time, SKT’s first MSI schedule this year began.

2017MSI Mid-Season Invitational Championship, SKT’s first match against WE.

This matchup was due to the "special relationship" between Chen Yiqiu and LPL, as well as the various grudges last year, SKT stepping on RNG's lead and winning the championship, etc.

It can be said that ever since the championship of this year’s Spring Split was won, it has been highly anticipated and attracted millions of attention.

So when the two teams sat in the game seats, the climax of today's MSI officially began.
