Alliance: My Qinggang Shadow made my alma mater famous

Chapter 292 [Unveiling! 】

An airport on the outskirts of Los Angeles, USA.

A small private jet with the Riot company logo printed on its fuselage, accelerated for a certain distance on the runway, and then slowly rose into the night sky.

inside the cabin.

Ji Wen, who was sitting by the window, took off his earphones and looked at the night scene outside the window.

Los Angeles below [-] meters has gradually turned into a sea of ​​lights.

He glanced at the front row of seats.

The two bosses of Riot Games, Tryndamere and Ryze, were pulling the chief designer Morello, and the three of them were playing poker together.

The rest of the accompanying Riot employees either watched movies with their tablets, or gathered together in groups of three or three, chatting about some things about Paris.

Tomorrow, the MSI finals will start.

According to the usual practice, in international competitions, the top executives of the fist company usually have to attend the award ceremony.

This year, Tryndamere and Ruiz decided to select a group of senior designers from within the company and fly to Paris to watch the competition together.

By the way, communicate with the contestants face to face.

Make some preparations for the version update in the second half of the year.

Ji Wen didn't really want to go.

As an otaku, when he has time, he prefers to stay at home to make up for it, and give the game progress that was left behind to his liver.

However, due to some special reasons, he was directly asked by his boss to go to Paris, so he had to cooperate obediently.

The voice of "hangchihangchi" came out of his ears again.

Ji Wen rolled his eyes and turned to look at the big bald "August" sitting next to him.

He held a bag of potato chips in one hand, and the mouse in the other hand, carefully checking some game values ​​on the laptop in front of him.

"I said, although we are on a business trip, you don't have to work so hard on the plane, right? The boss is concentrating on playing cards, and he doesn't know what we are doing." Ji Wen said.

"You don't understand. After Kai'Sa's appearance rate in MSI is high, that guy Morello will definitely make me prepare for downgrading. It just so happens that the data samples are enough now. I will run the model first, and I will not be able to save it by then." Nothing." August said indifferently.

"I think you just think Kai'Sa is a hero designed very successfully. You must be very intoxicated. I can't see you being so caring on weekdays." Ji Wen said speechlessly.

"Stop talking about me," August said with a disdainful smile, "Guess why the boss named him the day before yesterday and asked you to fly to Paris with him?"

"Of course I know." Ji Wen's face collapsed when he heard August say this.

All the reasons are due to YM's top laner, Jiang Keda.

In this year's MSI version, Riot cut off the top four sisters, and then raised the attributes of the canyon pioneer and baron, and by the way, accelerated the formation of ADC.

The purpose is also very clear, that is, to increase the frequency of small-scale team battles in the game and provide a stage for the AD hero Carry.

The top lane is actually not the protagonist of this MSI.

Because before the start of the game, the preparations are quite sufficient.

Therefore, in the first two days of the MSI group stage, everything went smoothly and there were no bugs.

However, from the game between YM and TSM, after JKD took out Akali as the top laner, the entire Riot designer team fell into chaos.

In the game, Jiang Keda used Akali's BUG-level performance to directly ask Morello to call someone to check the value overnight to check whether the hero's skill mechanism is balanced.

As a result, the proofreading on Akali's side has not been completed yet.

Jiang Keda took out the sword demon again, and played a shocking performance.

Then, yesterday's poodle and devil clown were on the order, which also caused chaos in the designer team.

As the designer who is mainly responsible for the development of top lane heroes, Ji Wen can be imagined how depressed he is.

From an official point of view.

If a hero has performed too shockingly in the professional game.

That proves that there are some flaws in the design of this hero, which does not conform to the concept of game balance.

It also shows that the designer's work is not perfect enough.

"Hey, if you speak from your conscience, do you think it's really my problem?" Ji Wen sighed.

"I admit that there is indeed room for adjustment in the values ​​​​of Akali and Sword Demon, but JKD is the only one who has played that way so far."

"That's true, but who made the two bosses loyal fans of TSM and G2? If JKD played such a performance in the LPL league, maybe their reaction would not be so big." Otst gloated.

"Morello was also troubled by Faker back then, but that was several years ago. Players like JKD who shake the version with their personal performance are the first in these few years."

Ji Wen pouted: "So, do you think he can lead his team to defeat GenG and help LPL win this year's MSI championship? Don't hide it, I know you are a fan of Ruler."

"You know all about it and ask," August said unabashedly, "YM is a good team, and Khan may not be able to play like JKD."

"However, YM has a very fatal weakness, and that is their absolute shortcoming in the AD position."

"Unfortunately, GenG's Ruler is currently the number one AD carry at MSI."

"This is indeed an unsolvable problem." Ji Wen muttered to himself.

In the B01 competition system, YM won against Samsung, which doesn't explain too much of a problem.

The biggest difference between B05 and B01 is that the five games will show the strengths and weaknesses of the two teams at a glance.

YM's weak output ability in the AD position will become a big hole for them on the stage of the finals.

A good BP in one or two games can allow YM to cover this hole.

However, as long as Samsung seizes the opportunity, it will definitely hit this point hard.

"Even JKD, who has great powers, can't solve this problem. The function of ADC is irreplaceable in the team." August laughed.

Ji Wen nodded.

He also believes that GenG will help LCK win this year's MSI championship.

This has become a well-established phenomenon in the past few years.

YM is a dark horse, but this round of weird series with G2.

The cards they can play and the moves they can make should be exhausted.

Although the workload has been doubled by Jiang Keda, Ji Wen actually doesn't like the LCK competition area.

He wanted to see how public opinion would change if YM really won the championship.

But the chances are too small.

Perhaps, they will become a world-class team until the summer split, when this team makes up for the shortcomings of the AD position.

For Jiang Keda, he has only debuted for one season after all, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't win the MSI championship this time.

Thinking of this, Ji Wen couldn't help but took out his laptop.

After arriving in Paris, he will have the opportunity to communicate with Jiang Ke University one-on-one. Taking advantage of this time, he intends to go through the video of Jiang Ke University's game on MSI carefully.

……

5 month 22 number.

Four p.m.

The whole YM team arrived at the Zenith Stadium again by car.

Two days ago, after Samsung eliminated TSM and advanced to the finals.

The Zenith Gymnasium began to be re-arranged overnight.

The organizer rushed out a batch of poster portraits of YM and GenG players, and arranged them in every corner of the venue.

The stage of the competition has also undergone some changes, adding elements of the finals.

the other side.

YM has not been idle these two days.

On the one hand, the contestants have to cooperate with the officials to record a promotional video for the finals.

On the other hand, team manager Pony also specially invited TSM, asking them to return to North America later, stay in Paris, and accompany YM for the training match.

The attitude of TSM is quite cooperative. Neither Bilson nor the big brother complained, and the level of investment in the training game was no less than that in the main game.

After being eliminated by Samsung, they also held back their anger, hoping that YM could replace TSM and complete their revenge on Samsung.

Of course, YM paid for TSM's stay in Paris for the day, which is also one of the reasons why they are willing to cooperate.

in the lounge.

The YM contestants who finished their makeup were listening to Meng Ma making the final arrangement.

"In the past two days, everyone has played a lot of training games and watched a lot of Samsung's videos. We also discussed a lot of ideas, but I still want to emphasize the two most critical points."

"First, vision! This is the most important thing! Samsung is a team that is very good at playing vision, and each of us must participate in the deployment and control of the map vision! This is not just a job of assisting one person!"

"Second, execution! What I should arrange and explain off the court are all in the BP. After entering the game, everyone must maintain communication at all times. Compared with problems in decision-making, the disconnection of team members is more serious. !"

After speaking, Meng Ma looked at Su Chen.

"The command on the field is left to you."

Su Chen nodded solemnly.

Then, Meng Ma explained the tasks to the contestants one by one.

Xiaotian is the rhythm engine of the team, he cannot hesitate.

The left hand has to find a way to restrain Brother Crown from wandering, and he has to play the output that should be played.

The bottom lane, Zhang Xiaowen and Bovy, are under the greatest pressure in this round of the series.

During the laning phase, try not to give the opponent too much advantage.

After saying all this, Meng Ma let out a long sigh of relief, and his face softened a little.

"Okay, that's all there is to say. Tonight we may be the champion or the runner-up. Before the game starts, do you have anything to say?"

"I think, when we play games, don't think about what team we are facing, just cover up the IDs and play our own." Xiaotian said in a relaxed tone.

"I feel that if we play five games, we will be very hungry. Let's hurry up and win three games and go back to the hotel for supper." Zuo Shou said with a smile.

"Don't care about the LCK, the champion of the S game, just smash them to death!" Zhang Xiaowen clenched his fists and grinned.

Looking at the current state of the team members, Meng Ma was quite relieved.

When they first arrived in Berlin, these teenagers were still a little nervous, and they were a little afraid of the international stage of MSI.

However, after these days of competition.

These teenagers have also grown up.

"What about you, don't you want to say something?" Meng Ma looked at Su Chen.

He has not spoken, just with a faint smile, listening to his teammates give their pre-match speeches.

"Why does this scene seem familiar?" Su Chen looked around the room, "I remember, before the finals of the Winter Games last year, we sat in a small room like this, waiting to play."

"Before the LPL finals, it seemed to be the same."

When the teammates heard Su Chen say this, they also recalled the previous game.

"We are already the champions of the LPL, the finals team of the MSI, and we are the top of the group stage, which shows that we are not inferior to any other team, we are very strong." Su Chen said slowly.

"Before going on the court, just remember this."

After hearing this, everyone was silent for a moment, and understood Su Chen's meaning.

Tonight, they will face off against the 2017 S Tournament champion and the Spring Split champion of the world's No. [-] Division LCK.

Samsung GenG.

In front of this team, let alone YM, even if Yusanjia's team comes over, they don't have enough honor to challenge the opponent.

However, what Su Chen said also told everyone.

LCK has their glorious history.

However, the games YM has won along the way have also proved their strength.

This is also the source of confidence for the entire YM team in tonight's series.

History is for surpassing!

……

Afternoon, 25:[-].

The Zenith Stadium was filled with voices.

On the V-shaped stage, on one side is the blue team flag representing Samsung GenG.

The other piece is the black team flag representing YM.

Blue and black divide the stage into two areas.

And in the center of the stage, there is a booth.

The golden MSI trophy is quietly presented in it.

The winner tonight will take this trophy back to his country.

Six thirty.

The lights in the arena gradually dimmed.

A symphony full of classical charm reverberated in the venue.

Then, on the big screen, the promotional video of the finals began to play.

The street scene of Paris passed quickly.

Samsung's team members appeared on the screen one by one.

Ahn Zhangmen: "In the past two years, LCK has won all the championships, but the protagonists are SKT. This year, we want to tell the world that LCK is not only a team of SKT, GenG can also represent LCK Great team."

Chidi: "Since I won the S championship last year, I feel that I have entered the best stage of my career. This year I can win the spring championship again and advance to the MSI finals. I hope that this wonderful journey can be completed. carry on."

Then, the screen switched to the members of YM.

Su Chen appeared in the picture. He was standing on the rooftop with the night view of Paris behind him.

Looking at the camera, Su Chen's expression was extremely serious.

"I think it is the best arrangement to meet Samsung GenG, the champion of last year's S game, on the stage of the finals."

"In the past few years, the LCK division has always been considered an invincible existence. This year, we became the champions of the spring split and came to Europe."

"Following YM, coming to this stage tonight is not only the hope of the entire LPL division, but also the regrets left by the seniors of the LPL in the international arena in the past few years."

"Tonight, YM will break the myth that the LCK is invincible!"

"We want to defeat the GenG team with our own hands, wash away all this, and bring the MSI trophy back to LPL!"
