Chapter 11 New Year’s Eve


Chapter 11 New Year’s Eve

Along with the spring competition roster on the official blog, there are also final makeup photos of the players.

EDG's team uniform jacket is quite like a racing suit. Black dominates the tone, and the three letters 'EDG' are outlined in white on the front.

The logos of sponsors such as Huya Live and BB Social are printed on the chest. The sparse sponsor icons show that the league is not yet favored by capital. Even EDG, which is the best in the country, has difficulty in receiving large sponsorships. .

But capital is capital, and EDG has quite a few fans.

Not long after it was posted on Weibo, there were already more than a hundred comments below.

【What the hell? You let Fat Dad, the pilot and A Guang go, and all you bought were junk that others didn't want? 】

IG released the spring split roster early, relying on the signing of Duke to get a lot of traffic.

Everyone was originally guessing where the Emperor Fan who was 'Principal Wang who blocked the atomic bomb' had gone, and whether he had quietly retired and sold cakes.

The relationship is good now, it’s from the home team!

What does it mean to eat until the house collapses? This is the real collapse of the house!

[If you want to show off, just go to Tong Yang all the time. Who would be disgusted by buying a mortal emperor! 】

[Laughing to death, at the age of 25, you still refuse to retire as a top laner. Do you really think you are the second Marine? 】

[IG: Life has dreams, each is wonderful! 】

Just as Li Mufan expected, as soon as this official blog came out, there was an overwhelming amount of curses, just like S5 back in the day.

Not only him, but also Yu Wenbo could not escape.

[Bot lane JackeyLove, if I remember correctly, is the crazy marketing ‘Navy AD’ two months ago, right? 】

[EDG’s lineup is really set for next year, don’t drag the factory director down and let him go! 】

This is the disadvantage of young players joining a big club. The club's historical results are there, and the old fans' requirements for new players are particularly strict.

Players like Li Mufan, who have a bad record, rarely come in and get sprayed. I'm afraid if they encounter a crazy fan, they will send a wreath of black and white photos of Li Mufan directly to the door of the club tomorrow!

However, in the past two years, he has long been immune to such comments. Li Mufan stretched and continued to scroll through Weibo comments.

The one with the most likes is: [LGD: I won! 】

What does EDG’s roster have to do with your godfather? Li Mufan clicked in with a curious look on his face.

It turned out to be the winner of Lao Gan Daddy’s breath-holding competition during the transfer period.

The little depression I had just felt was instantly washed away by this joke.

Then came December 21st, the 2017 LPL Spring Split draw ceremony officially began.

According to the results of last summer's competition, EDG and RNG were ranked in the first seed pool. They will enter the A/B groups respectively, and the remaining ten teams will also enter the two groups according to their rankings.

Two groups A/B implement a double round-robin competition system in the same group and a single round-robin in different groups. There are six teams in each group. Each team plays a total of 16 games. If you win, you will get one point. There are no other scoring rules.

The top four teams in each group enter the playoffs, while the bottom two teams go to promotion and relegation, which is what we often call the relegation match.

The final lottery results are out,

Group A: RNG, IM, Snake, LGD, IG, OMG.

Group B: EDG, WE, VG, NewBee, GT, QG.

Seeing this grouping, Abu let out a sigh of relief.

The current draw allocates the seed pool according to the ranking of last season, but in fact this is quite unreasonable, because the team that was weak the previous year may not necessarily continue to be weak this year!

The typical example is IG!

After signing Duke, they have strengthened all lanes, and the child Youshen has also been transferred from the bottom lane to the jungle. The current strength is definitely not limited to the third seed pool.

The rest, like IM who achieved the "three consecutive jumps" in S6, and the Snake Team led by Brother Holy Spear, are not ordinary people either.

Looking at the second half, except for one WE2.0 team, all the other teams can be said to be making up the numbers.

Although VG has the champion midfielder pair of Easyhoon and Bengi, they were also the world champion combination of Easyhoon and Dandy in the summer of S6. The record in the first round of the playoffs shows that sometimes having two star players may not necessarily lead to good results, not to mention that Bengi has never been known for his personal operation.

His road to success is similar to that of the factory director who won the MSI in 2015, which is the way of protecting his father!

But now VG has no father. The top and bottom lanes are all unknown players. The middle laner can only be stable and cannot be expected to carry the entire game.

"There is no problem for this group to enter the playoffs, but if you want to go further in the playoffs, it still depends on how well you have adjusted in the spring split!" The factory director rubbed his chin and commented like an outsider.

"What do you mean, are you going to fight me?" Yu Wenbo's face was full of curiosity.

"Ahem!" Abu cleared his throat at the side. He waited until everyone's attention was attracted to him before slowly speaking: "Mingkai said that we need to take a break in the spring. The spring competition is basically about Lolita. We will see later. His adjustment will determine when he will return!”

"Director takes a break?!"

"No way, am I the one playing all the spring games?!"

The surprised sounds of Yu Wenbo and Ai Luoli echoed in the training room.

Ai Luoli's face was full of shock, what! When I was asked to come back from IM, I thought I was going to help the factory director clean the water dispenser and earn wages while lying down. However, it turned out that the factory director directly became the boss and left all the work to him alone!

As for Yu Wenbo, he simply felt a little regretful that he couldn't play with the factory director.

In fact, he was less than twelve years old when he first saw the director's game video online. Since then, he has been thinking about playing games with the director one day. This is one of the many reasons why he agreed to come to EDG. .

The factory director shrugged: "Even if I win the game in my current state, we should lose or lose in the World Championship! I think I should settle down for a while and think about how as a jungler I can help the team win the game. Victory!”

The factory director made an impassioned speech, which made Abu's eyes red with emotion. He walked over and patted the factory director on the shoulder: "Don't worry! Just go with peace of mind. We will inherit your spirit. In the spring Well done!”

The factory director frowned and felt something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.

After the Spring Split schedule was announced, each team also took time off and entered the intense training session.

Riot Games has previously announced that in the Spring Split, all leagues around the world will use a 10-ban format. This will undoubtedly increase the requirements for the player hero pool and test the team's tactical reserves.

Coach nofe did not expect to encounter a big problem when he arrived, but fortunately EDG's training team is quite complete, and he is not the only one to complete data analysis, tactical development and other work.

But the preparation time left for EDG is still quite severe.

Because the 10-ban mechanism has not been applied in rank, basically everyone can only practice in training matches; at the same time, everyone is working hard to train new heroes to deal with possible bans.

In such a tense atmosphere, Abramovich did not forget the promise he made at the door when he brought Li Mufan and Yu Wenbo back to the base. On New Year's Eve, EDG directly held a live broadcast event and organized all the club's players and staff to organize it. A hotpot annual party!

Several tables are joined together on a long table filled with various hot pot ingredients. Everyone has their own small pot for cooking. The scene is lively and fully caters to the community.

The annual meeting lasted until the New Year's Eve bell rang, and the first day of 2017 came quietly.

This also means that they only have half a month left before the opening game of the spring split against their old rival WE.

The next chapter begins the LPL schedule.

Thanks to ‘Zuo Tu Liner’ for the 500 starting coin reward. ​
