Chapter 8 Faker: tons tons tons
After hanging up the phone, Lin Qiguang fell into deep thought again.
Even if you want to change some things, they will be restricted by the conditions of all parties, and you will be powerless.
Let’s not talk about the final results of this year’s World Championship. Just looking at the current results of ROXTigers, Huya can no longer afford it.
At present, the coaches and players of the ROX Tigers are receiving a minimum salary, which is obviously not in line with the results they have achieved in the past two years. If it were another club, they would have raised their salary after the summer split, but in celebration At the dinner, no one mentioned this.
Why?
Because Huya, the owner of the team, doesn't care much about the results this team can achieve. It can even be said that the better the results of this ROX Tigers, the sooner it will be disbanded.
For players and coaches, in one or two years, everyone can still work hard for their love and not care about financial rewards.
But we can’t always treat our love as food, right?
After all, with their performance, aren’t they worthy of higher salaries?
Unless there is more capital than Huya is willing to acquire the team, the final result must be: in order to provide better conditions and environment for the players and coaches, all parties are allowed to contact freely and negotiate transfer matters.
Although he was away from the team for more than three months, after getting along with the members, Lin Qiguang was indeed moved by the harmonious atmosphere within the ROX Tigers team.
In South Korea, where the culture of superiors, subordinates, and seniors is extremely strict, this harmonious family-like ROX Tigers is a breath of fresh air in the LCK. If possible, he is very willing to continue to help the Tigers write legends in the future.
Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do to help.
However, since the ending cannot be changed, let's try our best to make the trajectory of the meteor more brilliant!

After Nofe's cryptic reply the next day, it didn't cause any turmoil within the team.
The playoffs or bubble games in various regions around the world are still in full swing. Not long after, the LCK 2016 Global Finals bubble game ended. SSG broke out of the siege and defeated KT 3:2, becoming the LCK. ’s third seed.
After the expedition ceremony is over, there is a leisurely preparation period.
The reason why I took my time was mainly to wait for the version update of Riot Games' global finals. After all, the S5 competition version caught many teams off guard. It is normal for them to be defensive this year.
On September 9, Riot Games finally released the update log and confirmed that the version of the 2016 Global Finals will be version 6.18.
As soon as the update log was released, teams around the world analyzed it, and ROXTigers was no exception.
After briefly scanning the log content, Lin Qiguang caught several very important version changes:
【Ice Shooter】Ashe:
W "Thousands of Arrows" cooldown has been weakened from 12/10/8/6/4 seconds to 15/12.5/10/7.5/5 seconds
【Time Assassin】Ike:
Base attack power reduced from 59 to 55
[Blind Monk] Li Qing:
W2 "Iron Shirt" health steal and spell blood-sucking effects increased from 5/10/15/20/25% to 10/15/20/25/30%
【Bounty Hunter】Miss Fortune:
The passive "Doom's Favor" damage to defense towers is increased from 50% to 100%
[Rock Bird] Taliya:
Q "Stone Penetration" removed, causing 50% extra damage to minions
E "Stone Array" trap damage reduced from 80/105/130/155/180 to 70/90/110/130/150
In addition, there are several changes to heroes or equipment, but in summary:
Blind Monk, Female Spear, and Nightmare are strengthened, while Ekko, Gnar, Rock Bird, and Shen are weakened.
After Riot's version 6.18 update log was released, most players believed that Riot had learned lessons from the S5 World Championship version, so it only made some simple changes.
Some players even shouted: "The S6 Global Finals will be the most balanced final in history!"
But at this time, no one thought that version 6.18 would be the most extreme "early version" in the history of the LOL Global Finals.
This is undoubtedly adding insult to injury for the LPL, which is still accustomed to relying on double C for development and delaying the late stage.
However, for the ROXTigers, who are known as the "strongest spears", they are absolutely as comfortable as a fish in water, and they have been able to jump into the sea with ease ever since!
After the 6.18 version was officially launched on the US server, European server, and Korean server, it is obvious that the professional players in each competition area have become more active. While the number of ranks has increased significantly, training matches have also been arranged more frequently.
Many hard-working players play Rank late at night after playing training matches in the afternoon or evening, until three or four in the morning or even later. They wish they could be two angels in one day.
After all, it is the annual global finals. Which professional player has not dreamed of winning the global finals trophy on the highest stage?
No one can guarantee whether there will be such an opportunity next year, so if you really take responsibility for your career, no matter how much sweat you put in at this time, you may be able to reap a lot of fruits in the global finals.

Another day.
Training matches, dinners, training matches, live broadcasts, after playing a few games in the Korean Server Champions League, Lin Qiguang looked at the time and said to the audience in the live broadcast room:
"The anchor is ready to leave after one more game. I have something to do tomorrow and I have an appointment with a very important person for dinner."
As soon as he finished speaking, there were question marks on the barrage in the live broadcast room.
【? ? ? ? ? 】
[The anchor is drifting? Will it be broadcast at 12 o'clock? 】
[How can you sleep at this time? Are you somewhat present? ! 】
[Faker stayed up until 5 o'clock in the morning before going off the broadcast yesterday. Host, please be more angry and don't always leave early! 】
[Uh-huh, has Faker entered the summer finals? 】
I don’t know who mentioned Faker, and another round of mutual attacks started on the barrage, successfully deflecting the topic.
Lin Qiguang stretched out: "It is still very important to balance work and rest, and my appointment is for lunch, so it will not delay tomorrow's training."
[Isn’t that just right for lunch? I fell asleep at 3 o'clock and woke up just in time to have lunch. 】
[The anchor just wants to be lazy, stop making excuses. 】
After taking a look at the barrage, Lin Qiguang explained: "I really don't want to be lazy. In addition to lunch, I also made an appointment with Eunjing for a run in the morning."
【? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 】
【What the hell? Did I hear that correctly? Host Eun Jung? 】
[Faker: Little B, do you have the guts to say it again? 】
[Lee Sang Hyuk: Xiba! Sign up! 】
[Brothers, I just went to Douyu Faker’s live broadcast room next door to leave a message on the plane. The translator has already told Faker about the host’s appointment with Eun Jung. 】
[Brother, you know how to start a fight, hahahahaha! 】
[My buddy is studying in Korea. I won’t lie to you guys. Eunjung does interact more with Flashlight on Instagram than other contestants. There are also photos of the two of them running together in the park. 】
【Report again after exploring again! 】
Seoul-Gangnam-gu-Nonhyeon-dong, SKT club, LOL branch training room.
After listening to the plane message read out by the translator "Pang Yuan", Faker, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses, did not express his gratitude as usual. Instead, he picked up the drink bottle on the table with an expressionless face and drank half of the bottle of tea in one go. All gone.
"Tons, tons, tons——"
At the same time, the barrage in Faker's live broadcast room also surged like a wave.
[It’s obviously a tea drink, but why does it feel like Brother Li is drinking bitter wine? 】
[The bitter wine enters the throat and makes the heart ache. You are both grace and tranquility and calamity. 】
[666, I’m so talented in writing, so I’ll give you the answer. 】
[It is said that the time when Eun Jung left LCK commentary coincided with the time when FLashlight left the team in the Spring Split. Could it be said? 】
[Damn it, shouldn’t the uncooked rice have been cooked a long time ago? Flashlight is a great pen! 】
[I just said this is a bad woman, damn Yangou! Eun-jeong is indeed the doomed man of Brother Li (doge)]
Faker has always completed the barrage interactions in the live broadcast room with the help of female translator "Pang Yuan", so at this time he did not know what his Chinese fans were saying.
The only thing he could feel now was the dull pain from his heart.
Why, it’s obviously me first.
Whether it’s an interview or a happy interaction with host Eun Jung, I come first.
He clicked "Confirm" on the match in a daze, and after a while, "Pangyuan"'s gift thank you and translation reminder suddenly came from the earphones:
""You are Enjing and you are also Jie" sent a rocket and said, [Brother Li, Flashlight is lined up opposite you, and he is the mid laner. 】"
His originally chaotic eyes suddenly lit up, and his back straightened instantly. After banishing Garen, Faker on the first floor immediately locked onto the hero.
[Lord of Shadow Stream]——Jie! (End of chapter)
