Chapter 183 [Marked as a dish! 】
Haidilao is not far from the venue. The IG training team got on the bus before they finished bragging, when they were asked to get off by the manager Zhu Songge.
It still wears the same 'H' red signature base as in China, and the familiar decoration style almost made Chu Ge think he was back in Shanghai.
After all, it was a celebration banquet arranged by his boss. Including Vincent and several other Riot China staff, a total of 16 people were arranged in two private rooms.
There is a room for drinking and a room for children.
But surprisingly, the restaurant owner didn't look very old, and his words revealed that he was also a fan of the league.
The team members took a group photo with the Haidilao boss and left a message, saying that they wanted to frame the photo and hang it in the store.
Chu Ge and the team members had no objection.
Then the carolers got into money. Not only did the boss waive the bill for the celebration banquet, but he also gave each team member a half-life-sized doll.
Before the food was served, Chu Ge hurriedly prepared four kinds of dipping sauces, Sichuan oil dish, secret sesame sauce, dry dish and bean curd sauce.
When the waiter prepared the tomato beef soup and placed it on the table, Chu Ge had five bowls in front of him.
"Guigui, you are too meticulous in eating hot pot." Prince Ning looked at Chu Ge in great surprise and murmured, "It feels like eating a big meal!"
"What's this?" Chu Ge grinned, "There are still several kinds of seasonings that I haven't prepared yet, and the table can barely accommodate them."
"Awesome!"
Rookie gave a thumbs up. As a Korean player who has been in China for two and a half years, he is also particularly passionate about Chinese food. "Teach me how to adjust it later. I haven't eaten oil dishes like yours!"
"Okay!"
Chu Ge took a piece of fat beef and boiled it in the pot. When it was cooked, he put it in sesame sauce for dipping and then ate it. The fresh aroma made him instantly enjoy the taste.
It can only be said that Haidilao is indeed more in line with the public's taste, and as a chain store, the taste is similar everywhere.
However, in Chengdu and Chongqing, Haidilao’s style is a bit inferior to other old hotpots.
After drinking and eating, Zhu Songge opened the door to the children's table, "Our flight to Los Angeles is booked at 2 pm the day after tomorrow. There is still one day tomorrow, you can make your own arrangements."
The team cannot go to Los Angeles immediately. They need to wait until the end of the game between SSG and SKT tomorrow and confirm their finals opponents before Riot Games can book tickets.
As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Ning rushed out and shouted with wild eyes, "Brothers, I have prepared a strategy before I come here. We can go to Times Square in New York to buy limited edition sneakers!"
"Others are going to ring the bell to go public," Chu Ge patted his shoulder speechlessly, "Are you going to help others raise funds?"
The reputation of the Shoe King is not for nothing!
Ever since the group stage landed in San Francisco, Gao Zhenning has been telling Chu Ge to buy shoes. Those who didn't know thought that his wife Xiang Lin was having sex.
October 23rd.
Another semi-final match between SSG and SKT came as scheduled. The two LCK teams competed, and the Garden Plaza was still full.
Everyone at IG had just walked out of the shopping mall packed with bags, and slowly sat on the Riot Bus heading to the clubhouse to watch the game.
There is one thing to say, it is definitely beneficial to have the schedule and competition ahead. Whether it is rest or preparation, it is easier.
And the black technology that comes out may also affect the outcome of the game for the following teams.
When everyone at IG sat down at the scene, the first game had already gone on for about 30 minutes. SKT was leading by 6,000 gold, and the total number of heads had not yet exceeded ten.
They are completely opposite to the fast-paced offense of IG and Rox yesterday.
Not to mention 5v5 team battles, even in many small-scale encounters, both parties will calm down even if their skills are incomplete.
However, SKT has an advantage. Mid laner Faker's KDA is not very good.
The 0/2/0 record is in huge contrast to Crown Victor's 3/0/1. On the contrary, Xiaohei's Olaf is extremely fat.
The imagined crushing round did not happen.
After Samsung made adjustments in the group stage, the entire team's tactical thinking changed drastically, and Crown supported the entire team by himself!
The entire game lasted for nearly 60 minutes. Chu Ge originally came over to watch the game midway, but he couldn't help but go to the bathroom for convenience.
When we came back, Samsung won the first game!
At the end of the first game, Blank was still smiling playfully, but little did he know that he had become the biggest insider in this game.
Without protecting the middle lane, they had to play in the jungle with SSG. As a result, Lee Sang Hyuk was caught with extremely poor development, and the backbone of the entire team seemed to have been drained.
If SKT faced an LPL team, they might be able to turn the game over with their classic operations.
Even if you are 10,000 behind, you still have a chance.
However, the opponent in the civil war, SSG, is also a veteran in operations. Edger and Kkoma have been old rivals for many years, and they did not expose Faker's flaws at all.
The inner ghost Xiaohei couldn't defeat the leader An in 1992.
After a short break, the second game begins.
And during this BP stage, there was a wave of excitement in the field.
Because SKT stopped playing on the red side in this game, and regardless of whether the opponent chose a female gun, they directly locked down Bomberman, suppressing Ruler and making him unable to take care of himself.
At the commentary booth, the LCK commentators were simply surprised. Roaring Emperor shouted loudly from the side, "Bomberman is a hero that is not only easy to use as a female gunner, but also seems to be a regular AD choice!"
< br>
Chu Ge in the audience frowned slightly.
The official rise of Bomberman's bot lane was the beginning of the Spring Split of S7. When the functional version of AD completely dominated the bot lane, the French core bot lane was developed.
But that version was also called the League of Assassins. When the AD in the bottom lane couldn't survive, the core heroes had a chance to appear.
In yesterday's game between IG and Rox, IG took out the female gun specifically for dealing with Rox. Theoretically speaking, Miss Fortune and Bomberman should be in a subordinate relationship.
Zyra, Gunslinger, and Bomberman will definitely appear on the field at the same time, which is called a complete BP focus.
Unexpectedly, SKT actually solved the mystery of Bomberman's departure in just one night, and took him out with a single belt.
The effect of Bomberman this time is better than that used by IG. With Faker's personal guidance, and Bang who has not yet meditated in S6, it is obviously easy to practice Bomberman without too much difficulty.
Although Giggs appeared in yesterday's game, SSG obviously did not take him apart and found a way to crack it. Bengi, who was replaced on the field, came to the bottom lane to help catch a flash, Ruler and CoreJJ There is no way to line up anymore.
Then Bengi showed the world how SKT can win the game!
Continuously maintain growth!
Even though Brother Crown was at the peak of his career, he couldn't play the game against the two players in the middle, and finally lost the game with tears in his eyes in 34 minutes.
The score between the two sides came to 1:1!
In the third game, SSG had no choice but to send Bomberman to the ban position, but SKT didn't panic at all and grabbed Victor with a backhand.
Kkoma finally saw it clearly.
There are five people in SSG, and the biggest leg is Crown. Give your signature hero to Faker to ensure that you can have a laning advantage in the middle.
But Crown also had a trick up his sleeve in this game. He chose Dragon King to support SKT, and he had no intention of playing online with you.
Brother Crown's strength in S6 is indeed very good, but the condition of his teammates is not good. Leader An made many mistakes in the middle and jungle battles.
As a result, the early rhythm that should have been failed to be brought up.
Entering Bengi's rhythm again, Faker grew up comfortably and even took away a head from Spider An.
Not surprisingly.
SKT once again scored 1 point in the third game and took the lead in getting the match point.
In the fourth game, Kkoma got mad and actually lifted Blank up again.
Picked Zach.
How is this different from EDG hiding under a big tree for a long time!
The version of the S6 World Championship is an offensive jungle version. Herbivorous heroes like Zac, Pig Girl and Wine Barrel cannot play at all.
If you take it out, there will be no jungle area.
Blank is a typical map-controlling jungler, and his playing style is in the same category as Leader An.
But he can't play with others.
Xiaohei is a newcomer that SKT signed and trained this year. Both talent and experience are completely crushed by the leader An.
Faker was once again alone.
Many LCK mid laners have technophobia when facing Faker, such as Kuro, whose IQ drops when meeting Lee Sang Hyuk.
The Tigers lost to SKT in several games. During the pot-sharing conference, Li Ruixing was definitely the number one war criminal.
But Crown does not exist at all!
He definitely performed better than Faker in this year's World Championship, and he and Rookie are tied for the number one mid laner in the world.
Blank can't win and still wants Faker to provide support, which is tantamount to killing SKT's life.
In the end, SSG evened the score to 2:2.
"We won't really let Samsung enter the finals," Ning Wang kept laughing. "When we get to the finals, we have to thank Samsung. Don't beat them 3:0!"
What Prince Ning said was indeed correct.
Samsung's operating style is not worth mentioning in front of IG. Leader An can't get any advantage at all under Ning Wang's attack.
As for the crown
Rookie has enough heroes to restrict him in the middle, and he can't make any trouble at all.
Cuvee was tagged by Chu Ge.
Can't lose, can't lose at all!
3-2!
Kkoma didn't give up, Blank was replaced again, and the Flying Chicken combination showed their prowess and successfully won the ticket to the final stage.
In the commentary box, the North American commentators were relieved to see SKT win the final victory. "The second team heading to the finals has finally been confirmed. They will have a peak showdown with IG in the finals. Audience friends, See you in Los Angeles on October 29th!”
After the game ended, it quickly entered the interview stage. As the star player of SKT, he accepted the game from the main stage.
Chu Ge did not leave the venue with the crowd, but sat in the front row and watched the entire interview with Lee Sang Hyuk, and the translator Xin Minsheng was also gathered beside him.
"May I ask player Faker, how do you feel about entering the finals for the third time and facing the LPL team again!"
"Actually, I also watched Dow's interview yesterday," Faker tightened his grip on the microphone. "IG also declared war on us, and we accepted the challenge."
"On the final stage, we will retain the traditional program of LCK and win the championship of this global finals with a score of 3:0 like S3."
"So, hello, world runner-up!"
Listening to the harsh words of Faker, the second-year boy in middle school, Xin Mingsheng was a little nervous at this time, and he stumbled and translated to Chu Ge.
"Well done, you big fly!"
Chu Ge narrowed his eyes and raised a smile on his lips.
He stood up slowly and asked the translator, "I heard that Eunjing is traveling in Los Angeles. When we come over, we will give her a ticket and let her wear the IG team flag."
"What do you think Lee Sang Hyuk will look like after losing the championship!"
Xin Mingsheng was obviously stunned.
When he came back to his senses, Chu Ge had already reached the edge of the stands. He swallowed and said with trembling lips: "Pigeon! You are such a shrimp and a pig's heart!"
Back at the hotel, Rox immediately found IG and offered to hold a training match. The result started from the first game.
Smeb is having fun.
He seemed to want to vent all his anger on Chu Ge for not choosing a warrior hero in the semi-finals. The two men fought in a 1v1 men's battle for 10 minutes and each had a single kill.
Even the members of the two teams couldn't stand it anymore, fearing that they would get jealous and start fucking offline, but as a result, after the first round, the two guys went downstairs to the supermarket to buy snacks together.
Little Peanut was a little speechless.
This was the first time he had met Prince Ning up close. He never expected that he would be defeated by Feiyuan in his lifetime.
Beaver?
After a few training rounds, RoxTiger was a little confused.
IG couldn't beat themselves in the training match, so why did ALLIN send them directly back to South Korea in the main match?
Semb has had a lot of fun in these training games.
He originally thought that killing Chu Ge alone would relieve his depression, but he never expected that the result of a decision in the semifinals would completely plant a small seed in his heart.
It lingers no matter what.
October 24, afternoon.
The team arrived at the airport again, and IG and SKT were preparing to head to Los Angeles, the last stop of the North American tour, under Riot's planning.
From San Francisco, Chicago, New York to Los Angeles, the number of fellow travelers is getting smaller and smaller along the way.
RoxTgier originally wanted to stay in a hotel provided by Riot Games in New York.
Available the next day
They discovered that all the facilities and computers in the training room had been taken away, hotel rooms had expired, and Riot would no longer pay any fees for non-participating teams.
Where does RoxTiger have the money?
Even the air ticket money was borrowed. When they returned to South Korea, the base expired. The five of them had no choice but to find a cheap private house to live in even the Internet cafe.
Wait until the K cup is finished and then go our separate ways.
Before boarding the plane, Xiaohuahua specially found Chu Ge.
Yang Yang edited the pinyin on his phone and sent it to him, but after Chu Ge read the message, he couldn't help but frowned and looked at Peanut's leaving figure.
Good guy, I'm afraid you also want to put a mask of pain on me.
Chu Ge and his group also boarded a plane to Los Angeles under the leadership of Vincent and flew to Los Santos.
The flight from New York to Los Angeles lasted about six hours. After Chu Ge was seated, before the plane took off, he took out his mobile phone and browsed domestic forums.
At this time, it was only the third day after the IG semi-finals, so the on-site forum was still discussing the game the day before yesterday, and even Faker's provocation yesterday had not yet reacted. (End of chapter)
