Chapter 128127: Choice
The spotlights on the dome flashed alternately, and the word "victory" on the big screen was extremely conspicuous!
"Congratulations to VG!" Qihuan did not hide his joy, "Victory over RNG 2-1, ending with a perfect 13-game winning streak!"
The noise in the auditorium continued for a moment, echoing heavily in the closed venue!
"With 15 wins and 1 loss, VG leads the entire LPL!" Partner Su Xiaoyan echoed, trying to raise her voice, "The newcomers Virtue and JackeyLove who were acquired this summer performed very well, and the team really found a treasure!" < br>
Needless to say, Gu Xingzi has contributed a lot to VG's strong performance throughout the summer split, and is hailed by many as the strongest jungler in China.
Jack's performance is also remarkable.
Being able to compete with Uzi in the laning phase is simply unbelievable for a newcomer!
As we all know, Uzi is best at laning suppression.
He will use various card attack skills to steal points from the opponent to form a blood exchange advantage, and then supplement it with a strong understanding of the line of troops, allowing him to achieve a lead in the counterattack, while constantly wearing down the health of the defense tower.
The players who can play against Uzi are basically veteran ADCs at home and abroad, and all of them are full of honors.
Jack just managed to stay on top!
Although during team fights, he would make reckless mistakes and get killed suddenly, causing two waves.
However, this has surprised many VG supporters!
The camera switched to the RNG player seat. Uzi wiped the sweat from his forehead, looking extremely disappointed.
"For RNG, they suffered two consecutive defeats near the end of the summer split, which has to make people worry about the team's playoff status," said Zhihuan. "There is still one last game left against WE. It will be Determine the final ranking of Group A! ”
"We have to cheer up," Su Xiaoyan looked worried, "There is no problem with their personal strength, but they still need to strengthen their teamwork!"
The RNG players in the picture had their unhappiness written all over their faces. Mata's face was slumped and he didn't say a word.
Two losses in a row took a huge toll on the team's morale.
RNG introduced Uzi firstly because the team's assistant Mata was difficult to reconcile with Wu Xin's dissatisfaction, and secondly because it wanted to enhance the overall strength of the team and prepare for the global finals.
Before the start of the summer split, RNG was extremely optimistic from top to bottom, as if it was possessed by LGD.
Without Uzi, we could crush EDG and win the championship in the spring split. After reinforcements, we still can’t go to heaven?
But so far, we have not achieved satisfactory results!
After VG lost, they lost to EDG, and then lost to LGD.
Looking back, in the second round of the group round-robin, VG killed him again, which was unacceptable to the RNG generals and supporters!
The VG players were overjoyed and walked across the stage to the RNG player seat.
Since the team has been in the state of Qin Shihuang in the second half of the summer game, normally an ordinary regular season will not cause any ranking changes for VG, so they are not so happy.
But after this game is over, the VG training department will usher in the longest holiday so far in the summer split!
The team members who had been working hard for two months were finally able to take a break and relax, and couldn't help but smile brightly.
Seeing the opponent's opponent burst into laughter, Uzi subconsciously pursed his lips.
He couldn't help but recall the two games he lost today.
Suddenly he frowned, feeling something wasn't right.
RNG and VG had a battle before - Gu Xing's debut battle, and Uzi could still remember some details.
Comparing the two, Uzi always feels that VG's playing style has changed a lot when facing RNG!
He is an ADC who rarely participates in team command and has a certain ability to judge the situation.
In Uzi's view, VG is linked more frequently than before.
However, the processing of decisions such as line switching in the early stage has become very stiff and not as smooth as before.
Is there something wrong?
Uzi didn't think about it for a short time.
VG's play style is neither fish nor fowl, he can't even find a suitable template!
In the end, Uzi could only attribute the changes in the opponent's play style to version updates, or the impact of Gu Xing and Jack's integration into the team.
These were all routine factors, and he dispelled his doubts.
On the other side, Gu Xing was still greeting Xiang Guo while shaking hands.
"Come on, let's see you in the finals." He patted the opponent on the shoulder.
Xiangguo was very skinny, so Gu Xing had to control his strength for fear of injuring him with a slap.
In the past two months, he had a good relationship with Xiangguo in the Seven Wolves. They met backstage before the start of the game, and their conversation was much warmer than before.
Xiang Guo straightened his back immediately.
Gu Xing's subtext is obvious, wishing RNG victory in the weekend's showdown with WE.
In this way, RNG can firmly occupy the second place in Group A, and they will be in different half zones from VG in the playoffs. They can only meet in the final decisive battle.
"We can definitely adjust, but don't let others beat you in the playoffs!" Xiangguo said confidently.
Xiangguo usually belongs to the "God is first and I am second" type. He has a very arrogant personality, which is quite similar to his playing style in the game.
It's just that my emotional intelligence is a bit low.
Gu Xing didn't take it to heart, he just smiled and walked past him, going to the center of the stage to bow.
The protagonist of today's post-game interview was Jack. Gu Xing helped carry the peripherals back to the lounge.
As soon as I walked in, I saw Hongmi.
The head coach reached out and rubbed his hair to show his closeness, "My performance today was okay. I feel like I am in charge of the overall situation."
Hongmi could hear the team's voice in the lounge, and could naturally feel Gu Xing's progress in this game.
"I think so," Gu Xing was very happy with his progress, "When we come back from the holiday, we can officially use the wild core, right?"
Strictly speaking, VG did not use a purely wild core system in the final battle.
This is also the reason why Uzi feels that VG’s tactical style in this game is nondescript.
As the champion of the Spring Split, RNG is one of the few teams in the LPL that is qualified to compete with ROX in training matches.
Uzi has naturally seen how powerful Little Peanut is.
Although RNG is currently focusing on preparing for the playoffs, they are studying opponents within the LPL, and have not yet carefully thought about Peanut's play style.
But if Gu Xing also uses the wild core system, RNG will definitely react and realize that his style is similar to that of Little Peanut.
In today's game, VG only had a brief taste of the jungle core, and only stayed on the most basic quick linkage between the lane and jungle. All other factors were not involved, and they just won the game according to their usual style of play.
This approach resulted in no trace of the team’s tactical style!
Hongmi arranged this deliberately.
Facing the final game of RNG, the real goal was to exercise Gu Xing's commanding ability, and there was no intention of using wild core.
First, because the playoffs are approaching, teams that have already been ranked are hiding their tactics, and VG is no exception.
For them, winning against RNG today will make them feel better during the holidays, but there will be no real gains.
There is no need for VG to expose their own tactics, save them for the playoffs, and they can catch the opponent off guard!
Second, VG's wild core system has not yet been fully honed.
It only took three days from the time Gu Xing proposed to imitate the wild core play style of Little Peanut to the time he faced RNG.
Such a short time is not enough to develop a mature set of tactics.
What's more, VG's training matches require them to get familiar with and adapt to other systems, which are not entirely allocated to wild core play.
Therefore, Redmi specifically warned players not to play wild core during the BP session.
Now that he heard his jungler's suggestion, he readily agreed, "We'll practice for two days when we get back from vacation, and we can use it in the playoffs!"
Brother Long hugged Gu Xing and said, "Xiao Gu, have you bought your ticket?"
"Yes, if we leave tomorrow morning, we can still make it back to Zhenhai for lunch," Gu Xing said cheerfully, "I haven't been home for a long time..."
Two months.
It was the first time that Gu Xing had been away from home for so long, and his excitement was beyond words.
Brother Long was filled with envy, "It's so good, I can't even go back!"
His home is in a county below Changsha, and it takes a long time to fly back.
There are three days of vacation in total, and the round trip will take 1/3 of the time.
After thinking about it, Allen Chu decided not to go home.
Let’s wait until the summer split ends.
During the holidays, he stayed at the base to continue training.
After all, for him, the team's performance in this summer split is really good, and he has reached the highest peak of his career!
Allen Chu naturally had to cherish it.
This may be his only chance in this life!
After Jack finished the interview, VG and his team took the bus back to Songjiang University Town.
The summer regular season ended perfectly. The club had a simple celebration at the base, and the breeder cooked a table of dishes.
Brother Long was so itchy for a moment that he even put on an apron and showed his hands.
The boss, Ding Jun, used to work as a cruel supervisor at the Dota 2 base next door. When he heard that the food in LOL was better, he immediately came over to eat.
The employees of the competition and training department sat in a circle around the round table, enjoying themselves.
The boss, Ding Jun, did his part and stood up holding a glass filled with drinks to say a few words.
"Today we are not only celebrating the end of the regular season, but also wishing good results in the playoffs," he looked at everyone at the round table in turn, "to achieve an outstanding performance of 15 wins and 1 loss, everyone here has worked hard A lot.”
"I didn't follow the team to watch every game, but I watched the replays of the key games, and I can notice everyone's progress..."
Ding Jun is thorough and considers all members of the VG.LOL branch.
He didn't waste too much time. Knowing that these employees were still hungry, he signaled everyone to start quickly after his speech.
The crisp sound of glasses clashing resounded through the base, followed immediately by the bilingual sounds of Chinese and Korean.
"Try the chicken wings I made, they definitely taste good!" Brother Long was ready to take credit.
Gu Xing picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Jack beside him was the first to give a high praise.
"Brother Long, you are definitely the best cook among professional players!"
The Marquis was also full of praise.
For a moment, everyone’s rainbow farts came one after another.
During the banquet, Gu Xing filled his stomach while enjoying a variety of dishes. He turned his head and chatted with the Marquis in a low voice, using Jack's loud voice as background sound.
"Dude, I had a 50-50 draw with Uzi in the laning match today. When I go live on vacation, I have to give the audience a review!"
"Those people were laughing at me before because I would be killed randomly by Uzi in the lane. It was simply ridiculous!"
Yu Wenbo took advantage of the fact that the playoffs hadn't started yet and quickly started talking about it.
Gu Xing drank too much Cola and got up to go to the toilet mid-hearing.
Boss Ding Jun followed him in time.
"Xiao Gu, what are your plans after the playoffs?"
Gu Xing replied subconsciously, "Go back to school. When you have free time, you can do live broadcasts."
His live broadcast performance is not bad. If he manages it carefully, he will have no problem supporting himself.
Ding Jun asked, "Have you never thought about staying in the professional arena?"
Gu Xing hesitated for a moment, but still insisted on his idea, "...Brother, I have worked hard to study for twelve years. It is impossible not to go to college after the entrance examination, right?"
He is really interested in League of Legends and is willing to study it.
But games are games and life is life.
Gu Xing has always believed that reading can help him maintain the lower limit of his quality of life.
His family background was average. His parents relied on the income from a small supermarket to raise him and Gu Pan, and they could not save much.
Gu Xing saw it clearly.
To get to where I am today, there is no room for error.
He cannot change his established life trajectory simply by relying on personal preferences.
Compared with professional e-sports, reading has a much broader application in future employment.
"You are not allowed to study," Ding Jun turned on the faucet and rinsed the water, looking at Gu Xing through the mirror in front of him, "You can keep your student status even if you drop out of school."
This time, without waiting for Gu Xing to answer, he added, "To be honest, Xiao Gu, you are really a blessing from God. Your talent is surprisingly good."
The VG club founded by Ding Jun spans multiple projects such as Dota2, CSGO, LOL and CF, and its results are quite good. It can be called a domestic e-sports giant.
The club has been established for four years, and to be fair, Ding Jun has seen many e-sports talents.
They have all achieved extraordinary results in their respective fields.
Compared with these people, Gu Xing's talent is also one of the best!
Ding Jun believes that talent is not only the speed and operation level of the game.
The ability to understand and learn to keep pace with the times is the strongest point of this group of e-sports geniuses.
In other words, this is a common characteristic of geniuses in all major industries.
Various e-sports projects are more or less faced with version changes and numerical changes.
Talent monsters can adjust as quickly as possible to adapt to the playing field environment.
Otherwise, it is just a short-lived shooting star.
There is no doubt that Gu Xing has all the conditions.
Ding Jun is very optimistic about him.
"Suspend school..." Gu Xing wiped his hands clean and fell into deep thought.
"If you stay in VG next year, the total salary I will give you can reach seven figures before tax." Ding Jun directly smashed the salary.
This number is considered the first-tier salary goalkeeper for domestic players in the 2016 LPL.
The current salary of the optimistic patriarch Gao Dewei is 2 million to 3 million a year. This is the real top player, followed by the two top domestic pigs and dogs!
Spending at least one million to sign and travel for a year is definitely not a low price.
After all, he has no particularly good results and has only played two months in the regular season.
But Ding Jun is willing to pay the money.
Although I don’t know if Gu Xing will have shaking hands and stretched hips in competitions like Yuan Shao in e-sports, but even if the competition is unreliable, Ding Jun doesn’t think he is at a loss just based on his regular season results.
What's more, Gu Xing's social anxiety syndrome makes him look like a player with poor ability to withstand pressure.
Last year, Ding Jun spent a budget of 10 million on the League of Legends project and signed three-star coach Shiranosuke.
As a result, they didn’t even make it to the semi-finals of the playoffs, let alone the World Championships!
Now the changes Gu Xing has brought to VG are visible to the naked eye.
Relying on the regular season results alone, VG can get a seat in the semi-finals and create the best results in team history!
Things that ten million people couldn't accomplish can be solved with a new person.
Ding Jun knew that it was not just Gu Xing who was responsible for this.
But as the team's early offensive engine, Ding Jun can see how smooth his rhythm is.
One million, even if you just buy the regular season record, Ding Jun thinks it's worth it!
"Seven digits?" Gu Xing repeated.
After receiving Ding Jun's affirmative reply, his heart surged.
Gu Xing could feel his heart beating violently.
He has never seen so much money!
My house in Guxi Community is currently worth more than one million yuan.
If I play professionally for two years, can I buy one?
This is very tempting for Gu Xing.
He gave too much.
It took Gu Xing some time to digest the price offered by Ding Jun.
He calmed down and responded, "I'd better go back and think about it again..."
He didn't dare to make such a big decision on his own.
When Gu Xing returned to the round table, he was still worried and weighing the pros and cons.
After finally waiting until dinner was over, Gu Xing ran to the training room and played two games of ranking, letting the game distract him so as not to worry about the suspension of school and the amount of the contract.
After staying up until twelve o'clock, Gu Xing prepared to go upstairs to sleep in case he couldn't get up tomorrow and missed the train.
As soon as he turned off the computer and left his seat, he heard an excited shout from Gu Shengbin, who was not far away from him.
"Nice!"
Imp jumped up and saw the confused Gu Xing.
Without saying a word, he stepped forward to hug her.
Due to height limitations, Gu Shengbin's head hit Gu Xing's chin.
"I..." Gu Xing was pushed so hard that he almost bit his tongue, and it hurt so much that he couldn't speak.
"No. 1 in the Korean server!" Gu Shengbin was so excited that he didn't pay attention to the pain coming from the top of his head. He kept shouting, "Should I hang on?"
The word victory appeared in the middle of his computer monitor.
Curious, Jack turned sideways and operated Imp's mouse to reach the settlement interface.
Koo Sungbin’s record of 7/0/7 is very luxurious.
The number of 1557 victory points is extremely eye-catching!
But switching to the war zone system, the little peanut who was opposite Gu Shengbin in this round only had 1550 victory points left!
A new Korean server is born!
"Wairty day," Yu Wenbo sighed with emotion, "Pfft, you are so awesome!"
When Gu Shengbin made such a fuss, everyone in the training room gathered over.
For a time, the room echoed with praises one after another.
"Niu Niu Niu!" Xiao Duan was filled with admiration, "What is the highest score in Hanbok over the years? I feel like Imp is about to set a record, right?"
Hongmi sincerely applauds to celebrate Imp.
The hard work of more than half a month has paid off, and everyone can see it.
It stands to reason that the honor of being number one in the Korean server is not worth mentioning to professional players who have already won the global finals.
But Imp knows how hard-won this is.
After getting rid of alcoholism, he forced himself to stay focused and resume the high-intensity training of his peak years.
In 21 days, Imp played a total of 344 qualifying games in addition to some training matches.
On average, there are more than 15 games a day!
Rehabilitation day after day, ranking first in the Korean server with 1557 win points, marking the return of a former genius boy!
"Congratulations!" Gu Xing relieved the pain and was sincerely happy for Imp.
Gu Shengbin improved his condition again, giving VG a little more confidence in the playoffs!
There is another infected person nearby. I ran out to buy groceries and took a nucleic acid test. Please don’t update me today.
