Chapter 127 Departure Ceremony! Bubbling competition melee!
The next day, Ye Bo got up at ten o'clock on time again and had his last sumptuous lunch with his parents in Shanghai.
Abu and Mingkai arrived early to make arrangements, and the whole pick-up and drop-off ceremony was very nice. It was obvious that they wanted to express their importance to Ye Bo.
"Xiao Yebo, in fact, if you miss home, you can go home and rest for a few days. Anyway, these are the days off." Ming Kai suggested kindly.
"No need, I can rest for two or three months after the S game." Ye Bo shook his head.
"The main thing is that we have to watch the game together these days. It is not convenient to discuss it online."
After the playoffs in each division are over, it will take almost a month before the World Championship starts.
Teams that have entered the World Championship during this period will usually give their members a week off to adjust to their condition before starting training.
Of course, this does not include those teams that are lingering in front of the World Championship.
The most brutal bubbling stage of LCK and LPL has begun, which is why Ye Bo finally decided not to follow him home.
As Ye Bo is now deeply involved in EDG's tactics and BP design, the games of these bubbling teams are naturally extremely important.
No one knows whether there will be an unknown dark horse in the World Championship.
Speaking of which, many of EDG's tactics and BP structures were originally the result of Ye Bo's flash of inspiration while watching the game, such as the first-level design of the wine barrel in that game.
"I'll go, Master Ye, you're so hot again!" Jiejie suddenly made a fuss and rushed over, holding up his cell phone.
"It turns out that you and your uncle and aunt were online last night. You couldn't tell, but your aunt is also a master!"
Everyone was gathering in the base, ordering fried chicken, burgers and peanuts to watch the game.
When Ye Bo took the phone and took a look, he knew what was going on.
Last night he took off his mask to play games, and was quickly noticed by passers-by outside the Internet cafe cubicle.
League of Legends is still the absolute mainstream in Internet cafes, accounting for at least half of it, and it is naturally difficult for people to notice this face that just made the headlines of major e-sports during the day.
The news spread quickly, and people inside and outside the cubicle were quickly filled with people who wanted to come in and ask for photos.
Father Ye and Mother Ye also once again, face to face, felt very directly how popular their son was now.
There were even passersby fans of Sheniu who asked Ye Ying directly: "Auntie, are you the '40-year-old aunt who wants to play professionally'?"
Ye Yingdu experienced the feeling of being a "celebrity" for the first time.
That battle, anyway, made Ye Xiong next to him nervous, and he felt a little overwhelmed standing in the room for a while.
As soon as this incident was posted on the Internet, it naturally became a hot topic.
It’s not the first time that parents of professional players support and even play games together, but it’s rare for the whole family to play together.
In addition, Ye Bo's former nickname was "Auntie Brother", and this association is naturally full of storytelling.
"Okay, okay, let's watch the game and watch the game!" Ye Bo handed back the phone, and he felt very happy when he thought about how happy his mother was last night.
The first one to start is the LCK bubble match.
There are four teams in total competing: DK and LSB, who only need to win one game, and KT and DRX, who need to win two games.
On the first day, DK swept LSB 3-1 and took the lead in confirming the "third seed" seat.
"Guigui, it has to be the top midfielder of the boss Wugui!" Brother Shengqiang sighed: "I feel that if Niuguli played in the playoffs, he might be able to win T1."
DK still displays the team's traditional "stereotype" style.
The three uncles and three sisters-in-law in the middle and wild areas collaborated crazily, and the top laner steadily suppressed the line.
On the bottom lane, it’s the same as before, just stay steady.
In the game between DK and T1, even in the absence of Niuguli Fuyang, they were still able to reach a score of 2-3 with T1, which is enough to prove that this DK still has a bit of a turtle shape.
"But it feels like Canyon's style has changed. He seems less aggressive and more stable?" Jiejie was also analyzing the changes in his opponents.
Ye Bo did not participate in the discussion at the first time.
He was just scribbling in his notebook, as if he was recording something.
Then KT played against DRX, a duel between the two losers.
Whoever loses will be directly out of the game and miss S12, with no room for error.
This game is also the game that everyone in EDG is most concerned about.
There is no other reason than that the DRX team has Deft, an old member of EDG, who is also an old friend who maintains frequent contact with Meiko Mingkai and others.
In the first game, DRX fought hard for 41 minutes and finally won the victory. Zeka's Silas showed his power and won the MVP.
But starting from the second game, the situation took a turn for the worse.
Zeka was banned and robbed of Sylas for two consecutive games, and he selected the Czar in two consecutive games, but his performance in both games was extremely bad--even the damage in both games was not as good as Kingen's Pig Girl and Wine Barrel in the top lane!
"Is there something wrong with Zeka's hero pool?" After Maokai finished speaking, he turned to look at Ye Bo.
"I don't think so."
Ye Bo flipped through his dense notebook and expressed his thoughts: "As far as I know, Zeka's hero pool includes at least Akali, Ahri, and even Enchantress. The opponent didn't ban them, and he didn't choose either. ”
"In both games, they were trying to grab Zeli for the bottom lane. In one of them, they even picked Zeli + Lenata, who we had confirmed were traps."
"It feels like, well, the bottom lane doesn't seem to have the BP effect it deserves."
Considering the relationship between Deft and EDG, Ye Bo still spoke quite tactfully.
But the fact is that from an effect point of view, the BP made by tilting the bottom lane for two consecutive games did not have any effect.
Deft's performance can't be said to be that bad, but it just didn't stand out and failed to achieve the effect that the key C position should have.
In Ye Bo's eyes, he always felt that DRX's tactics were a bit "chaotic."
It's like, a clear structure has not yet been completed, and everyone has not found their place.
"Hey, it's 1 to 2, it's very dangerous." Meiko couldn't help but sweat for her old friend who was already standing on the edge of the cliff.
However, by the fourth game, it was clear that there were people with clear minds in the DRX team.
Decisively make huge personnel adjustments on the edge of the cliff.
"Are you changing junglers at this time!?" Mingkai's eyes widened and he was shocked to see Pyosik being replaced.
But it turns out that this choice turned out to be a wise one.
Because it was obvious that the top lane was in the best shape in this BO5, so the substitute jungler Juhan was replaced to cooperate with Kingen in the top lane offensive, and he actually had two perfect performances!
A Qinggang Shadow and a Sword Demon, combined with the Zeka Tsar who was also recovering, used their top and middle power to overwhelm the entire audience.
In the end, DRX completed a one-on-one chase and made an extreme comeback, stepping on the lifeline and entering the bubble finals.
Ye Bo noticed a small detail during this game.
He found that although his assistant Beryl had chosen soft assistants such as Cat and Lulu for two games, he wandered around the game very frequently, and he was keenly aware that his "mouth" seemed to be moving all the time.
Ye Bo wrote down this small detail in his notebook and added a paragraph to Beryl's analysis.
[Beryl]: {Like to choose soft assistants to do things? }{Based on lane pressure but not paying attention to lane? }{
On the last day of the LCK finals, DRX faced off against LSB.
In the first game, Zeka still killed everyone and won the MVP, but this time, Silas was replaced by Akali.
But in the end, he was chased for two consecutive rounds!
And even the selected heroes are exactly the same, with the fixed combination of Zeli + Cat + Lulu + Lenata, and the same two czars in the middle.
"Why exactly!"
"It was 1-2 last time. Do we still have to fight hard! What is coach DRX thinking!"
Meiko, who had always been calm, looked at her friend standing on the edge of the cliff again, and her tone became anxious.
Ye Bo, who was chewing the cap of his pen and thinking, was also thinking about this issue.
He watched DRX's bot lane battles in the past few games and only felt two words - screw.
It is obvious that Beryl is eager to do things, and even if he chooses a soft assistant who is not very active, he always wants to move. However, he is paired with Zeli, who is not strong in the laning period and relies heavily on support.
This resulted in some separation between auxiliary and AD.
However, Zeli is the top AD in this version. They don't want to use it for the other party, and Deft's Zeli is relatively average.
Perhaps, after a face-attack in ancient times that sent a big wave away, Deft has lingering fears and is a little hesitant to use this kind of hero that needs to ride on the face.
Although the hero Zeli is prone to the famous scene of "climbing over the mountain", her output at critical moments really needs to be rushed.
Mr. Jack Dirty Dancing, who is good at sudden death, explains this more appropriately.
However, the DRX team seems to be magical.
Every time when they are on the verge of elimination, they always come up with something new and make a comeback, and there are always people who suddenly stand up, just like someone is protecting them from somewhere.
In the life-and-death battle of the fourth game, Zeka's Tsar and Kingen's Sword Demon managed to carve a bloody path in the team battle, contributing to several waves of team battles that were incredible. In addition, Deft, whose status also suddenly soared, completed the comeback abruptly!
The fifth game was even more surprising.
With such a thrilling BO5, one can clearly see the difference in strength between the two teams.
But in the final fifth game, in just 23 minutes, DRX seemed to have evolved as a whole, and actually crushed the final game with an exaggerated "human-machine level" record of 23 to 3!
The economic gap between the two sides in 20 minutes is as high as 1.6W!
You know, this is a head and economic gap that even EDG, which is currently the best at fast break, has fewer kills.
And Deft Zeli, who was criticized in two BO5 games, seemed to be reborn at the peak of ten years ago in this game, proving that she is not old yet.
With Beryl's rare nanny assistance, he directly penetrated the bottom lane in the lane and won the MVP.
"Nice! Ness! What a great alpaca!" Meiko was so happy that she felt like she had won the game.
"It's not easy," Mingkai was obviously very happy.
But soon he said with some sadness: "But it's just their ups and downs."
People on the Internet obviously have different opinions on this LCK final. [Wow, oh, oh, Mr. Dai, it’s really not easy! This jungler is so rotten that he was replaced in the third game, and then immediately quit after losing one game. Even the coaching staff really doesn’t trust him anymore. He is probably going to die at the water fountain]
[Okay now, at the World Championship, deft, hope, and viper sat next to meiko, and they all asked meiko: "Who do you love more?]
[DK only has the Ghost King left but did not enter the World Championship. This story once again tells us where the turtle gate of the big turtle was. It is all because of the Sea Whip boy who went to criticize things in the middle of the night! 】
[Actually, I feel that the upper limit of Dragon Fork is not low. As long as Genshin Brother stops doing it and concentrates on protecting the bottom lane, we can win! 】
[Drx’s mid laner has always been underestimated. Judging from this, the LCK mid laner is really strong this year. Li Xiuchao, add a thief]
[It’s useless to say so much. If DRX is in this state, it means the fate of the top eight. Mr. Dai, why not work hard to hit the double-digit top eight? Learn from my "Waste Mingkai, eight strokes every year, eight every year" Strong traditional virtues! 】
"Director, let me ask you a question." Jiejie suddenly raised his head.
"What for?" Ming Kai squinted his eyes, feeling that this guy was going to do something bad again.
Since this man and Ye Bo stayed together every day, he obviously felt that he had become stronger
"I'm just out of curiosity! Which one is more powerful, your top eight, or Brother Yangtuo's top eight?"
"Little arm boy! You're not offended!"
There was laughter in the base.
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
In fact, there is someone at the bottom of the post who is doing some popular science.
In fact, there are the same number.
Both of them are in the top eight. The factory director is 24568 and Deft is 5681011. They are both top eight five times.
These are also the two people with the most top eight honors among all players.
With the release of the LCK’s fourth seed.
The LPL bubble competition is also in full swing.
The highlight at 7 o'clock on the first day is RNG, the champion of the Spring Championship + MSI, facing off against JDG, the number one team in the summer regular season.
Unfortunately, RNG sent it again.
It can be seen from the entire summer competition that the state of all RNG members is outstanding!
Anyone who doesn't know may think that Xia Zhihu Brother is a disease that is contagious.
What’s interesting is that although the entire BO5 game presented a one-sided situation, the final score was only thanks to Wei grabbing the baron, which barely helped the team come back and win a small round of 3-1.
But no one thought that the only advantageous matchup was on the top lane!
To be more precise, Breathing and 369 basically had the advantage of Breathing in the matchup throughout the summer - and this was still under the combined circumstances of the "Eternal Hunting Twins".
The shortcomings of the top laners of both teams are very obvious.
One is in laning and the other is in trouble, and the other is in teamfight and the other is in trouble.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is a problem with 369’s laning, and this may also become a hidden danger for JDG in the S competition
Breathing, on the other hand, will start to send randomly as soon as the team fights in the mid-term. Coupled with the chaotic command and rhythm of the entire team, naturally nothing can be changed.
RNG seems to have lost all its martial arts skills. It has lost the status of its players, its tactical execution in the spring, its top-notch operations and team battles in the later period, its strong trident rhythm system in the regular season, and its valuable tactical development capabilities.
In the end, RNG regretted missing out on the third seed seat and had to wait for the day after tomorrow for the final life-or-death battle!
Fortunately, the remaining two teams are not very competitive.
BLG's state has never been able to adjust after a disastrous defeat to EDG, and everyone is still a little dizzy.
In the end, they were defeated by LNG 3-2.
As for this "Controversy between the Two Saints", it was no surprise that it caused a commotion, and Mount Emei felt like it was a Chinese New Year.
[Oh my god, I want to scream! Is this my junior? How come you got stepped on by my coin brother! 】
[Don’t make me laugh. What does it have to do with you being such a bastard? Isn’t this a losing battle in the middle? Forgot about the solo kill in the second game? 】
【What's wrong with being singled out? Did you win? You! Did you win? 】
【that is! Damn, I was kicked out by a newbie who just worked for a few months. Stop screaming. I'm just waiting for him to be stolen and I won't have a job next year! 】
[Come on Brother Coin, you must go to the World Championships! 】
The game had just ended, and Ye Bo originally wanted to comfort Chen Zebin.
But at this moment, I received a push reminder from BB space almost at the same time.
"BLG-Bin": "I will definitely come back next year!"
It was a pretty normal sentence.
But when paired with the "Big Big Wolf" avatar used by the other party, these words suddenly become a bit weird
Ye Bo knew that the other party didn't seem to need comfort.
Just below, he replied with a [Pleasant Goat Staring] expression.
Bin on the other side saw this reply and liked it first. He originally wanted to reply with some interaction.
But after smacking his lips twice, he finally pressed the backspace key.
It reminds me that Ye Bo won the Silver Dragon Cup just a few months after his debut. But he has been playing in the LPL for 3 years, but he has not even made it to the summer finals!
Think about those days.
One of them is a well-known unique skill UP in the high-scoring circle, and the other is a little transparent player who is preparing to sign up for youth training. They are still in parallel handover positions.
I had been traveling for three years, and I thought that when I looked back, I would have surpassed all those who had traveled with me before.
But in the end, Ye Bo overtook him in just a few months!
Is there any heavenly law, is there any royal law?
Bin, who was arrogant and arrogant, secretly made up his mind to find the manager later and try to get BLG to make some big moves during this year's transfer period.
Next year, he must fight back to Yangcun!
September 5th.
The last bubble match of LPL begins.
Although RNG was in really bad shape, LNG was still won 3-2 in the end.
Top laner Ah Le and Breath have the same compatibility. They both emphasize laning, and Breath's effect has been successfully brought out.
Especially in the last life and death game, when the team misses the World Championship and may be on the verge of disbandment.
Brother Breathing suddenly seemed to be possessed by divine power, and his "Sword Immortal" Sword Girl performed quite brilliantly, successfully leading the team to victory all the way.
Among them, Doinb was once again knocked out of the solo kill screen by Xiaohu, which also caused the criticism of Doinb to take a turn for the worse again
"Three to two!" Miller's loud voice could be heard by Ye Bo in the background: "RNG held on for the last breath! Successfully obtained the last LPL ticket to the 2022 Global Finals!"
At the end of the last bubbling match, the "Departure Ceremony" will take place immediately.
Players from the other three teams have already changed into Conquest under the guidance of the staff and are waiting for the main stage backstage.
Ye Bo walked through the player tunnel.
You can also see the RNG members who seem to be surviving a disaster, and the LNG members who are lost.
The completely different emotions of both parties were vividly displayed in this small space.
Doinb is no longer as noisy as before and looks a lot more honest. Perhaps he is still thinking about fighting again next year
Just as Ye Bo was about to go up and say hello, he heard the voice coming from the front desk.
"Next, please represent the LPL division and compete in the 2022 Global Finals as the number one seed - EDG!"
"On the day the Knights return, EDG, which has brought us countless miracles and excitement this summer, will definitely represent the LPL division and overcome all obstacles in the next S competition"
Ye Bo and his teammates stepped onto the platform and listened to the EDG summer game clips playing on the giant LED screen behind them.
Due to the bubble competition in the past few days, the lockdown situation in Magic City has become severe again, making it impossible to gather offline audiences.
Therefore, this year's expedition ceremony was also quite short and concise.
The four teams took turns to appear, and with simple special effects, Miller began to make his concluding remarks.
"The one-year LPL journey is over. The four teams that stand out from the hail of bullets will be branded as LPL and compete hard in the global finals."
"In the past four years, LPL has won three Summoner Trophies! This is an honor that belongs to our entire division!"
"This year's four teams include many who have experienced past glory, and there are also young rookies who are just starting out. Let us wait and see what kind of dazzling golden light they will shine under the test of the touchstone of the World Championship. ! ”
"Everyone, see you in the S12 Global Finals!"
Ye Bo stood in the center of the stage, looking at the empty player seats in front of him under the spotlight.
The simple ceremony did not affect the extremely passionate emotions in his heart at all.
He stood in front of the stage, straightened his waist and shoulders with great strength, and raised his chin.
It's like standing in a military posture.
Especially in sharp contrast to the lazy, sleepy, comic left hand, toothpaste, and Xiaohu nearby.
There is no other way. The eldest girl got on the sedan chair for the first time.
Whenever he thinks of the words "Global Finals", Ye Bo feels his mouth go dry and his heart beats faster.
But it’s deserted offline.
The major live broadcast rooms online are quite lively.
[LPL rush rush rush rush! 】
[This year seems to be the year with the fewest Korean players going to S games, right? There are only three, and the local players are getting more and more impressive! 】
[Reposted from the hot discussion on Korean Net: The four LPL teams have been confirmed. Just looking at the team names is scary! 】
【Seriously? Really compared to the team name, aren't the three on the opposite side more terrifying? That adds up to 6 S crowns! 】
【What happened? Weren't they the same three teams last year? If you look at my EDG team, I will beat your three teams! It will be over when I, Master Ye, go to the World Championships to collect achievements! 】
[What a boring expedition ceremony, not as good as last year. I will always remember last year’s expedition ceremony. The short videos of the four teams were all videos of beating WE! 】
[It’s really boring, my opinion is that it’s better to watch EDG’s season microphone]
As the teams from each major competition area were released one after another.
The sky in Summoner's Canyon seemed to be turbulent.
The alliance world is about to enter the hottest season of the year!
