LOL: I didn't retire, just no one wanted

Chapter 34 The Choice of EDG
Magic City.

Jing'an District, Lingshi Road, EDG Club.

"Okay... well... okay, I know the boss."

After hanging up the phone, Abu, who had a slightly curly Korean hairstyle, opened the door and walked into the training room.

At this time, the huge training room looked very deserted, only a young man with a fish-eyed pot head and a pink piggy T-shirt was sitting in front of the computer, watching the replay of tonight's semi-finals.

After the S6 World Championship, the contracts of the team's two major Korean players, PawN and Deft, also expired.

After many discussions, the two decided not to renew their contract and decided to accept KT's invitation to return to the LCK.

On the third day after returning from the Chicago theater, the two packed up their things and returned to Korea.

EDG regretted the departure of Deft.

Although the opponent's performance in the two world championships was not good, they are extremely dominant in the LPL division.

Even when encountering a top bot lane combination like Uzi and Mata, they still have an advantage and have completed line kills many times.

It's just that there is no way, Deft is determined to return to China.

At this time, Ming Kai seemed to hear footsteps behind him, and Ming Kai turned his head to look.

Seeing that Abu's face was not very good-looking, he couldn't help asking: "The boss scolded you again?"

"I'm not scolding, but I'm very disappointed." Abu sighed.

Dominating the country for two consecutive years, and as a result repeatedly failed in the top eight in the World Championships, who would not be disappointed?
Many people know that Boss Wang of IG is a game fan, but Ed Zhu, the boss of EDG, is also a true fan of LOL.

Moreover, compared to Boss Wang's platinum level, Ed Zhuke is much better.

He has maintained the level of a master of diamonds all the year round, and even ranked as the king of the national server in the S4 period.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Ed Zhu is the strongest among all LPL bosses.

As a top rich second generation, he doesn't like spending time and drinking, but he often spends time in clubs and playing tricks on players.

Even if he was scolded by the players for playing too badly, he didn't care.

It is precisely because he loves it too much that he is more disappointed when his team repeatedly falls on the way to the top eight.

Taking advantage of the departure of the two South Korean aids, Edzhu is also preparing for a big change of blood, and has given Abu a death order. He has no shortage of money, but next year's World Championship must break through the top eight.

After moving a chair and sitting down, Abu glanced at the computer screen and asked, "Still studying the video?"

"It's nothing to do anyway."

After Ming Kai replied, he suddenly thought of something, and said in a slightly excited tone, "By the way, I accidentally found a good seedling these two days."

Hearing this, Abu chuckled and said, "You mean Qin Ge, right?"

"Qin Ge?"

Ming Kai was taken aback for a moment, and thoughtfully said, "Why does this name feel familiar?"

"It's more than familiar. If there were no accidents at that time, he would be your teammate." Abramovich reminded.

After his point, Ming Kai suddenly realized, and a handsome young man could not help appearing in his mind.

As the only secondary league player who received invitations from all LPL clubs to try out at the same time, few people in the circle didn't know about it.

Unfortunately, the opponent left the field because of a car accident.

After regaining his senses, he said in surprise: "The one in the national uniform [How sweet is your mother] is Qin Ge?"

Seeing his expression, Abu didn't explain, but handed over a report: "Here, this is the report given by the team's analyst, let's see for yourself!"

After receiving the report, Ming Kai looked down.

Name: Qin Ge

Age: 20
Main player position: top order

The former 2144 team started the top laner and took a one-year and five-month hiatus due to injury.

Good at heroes: Sword Girl, Jess, Riven, Weapon, Sword Girl, Nuoshou, Crocodile, Captain, Centaur, Monkey, Barbarian King, Olaf.

Game style: extremely aggressive and oppressive, fierce and steady.

Lineup: 95
Teamfights: 93
Support: 60
Growth: 92
Anti-gank awareness: 70
Comprehensive evaluation: Personal ability is extremely strong, but it is seriously inconsistent with the team's current operating system.It remains to be seen whether he can adapt to the rhythm of the game after leaving the game for a long time.And he has been plagued by injuries, considering the above factors such as age, it is not recommended to introduce.

……

As the team became more and more formal, each club had its own set of criteria for judging players.

EDG's set of judging criteria is learned from LCK, and it conducts a detailed analysis of each player.

After reading the report in his hand, the factory manager couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The laning, team battle and development ability all exceeded 90 points.

You know, at the time of the S5 spring split, the only big daddy in the team, General PawN, only managed to reach 90 in these three items.

As for the two data of support and anti-gank awareness, Ming Kai didn't take it seriously.

Which professional player will use all his strength to play rank?
"Abu, I think he can try it." Ming Kai put down the report and suggested.

Although he is a player, his relationship with Abramovich is not simple. The two have slept in the same room since the WE period, and as the cornerstone of EDG's team building, they have a certain right to speak in the team.

Although rank cannot be used as a professional scoring standard, the opponent is not a passerby with a high score, but a professional player who has been tested in the field.

It's true that LSPL is a sub-league, but they have broken through the lanes and averaged 2.9 solo kills per game. Only Qin Ge can achieve such a dazzling result.

A Bu asked instead: "Ming Kai, have you read the analyst's comprehensive evaluation of him?"

"Looked."

Ming Kai nodded, and at the same time realized the meaning of Abu's words.

"A player with his style is indeed trustworthy in his peak period. If there was no accident at the beginning, we might be the champion of the S5 World Championship."

Abbu paused, and continued: "But he has been away from the game for more than a year, and he is not sure if his injury has fully recovered. Do you understand what I mean?"

Let them abandon the system and style they have been operating for a long time, change a new system, and focus on cultivating a secondary league player who has been away from the game for more than a year due to injury and is already 20 years old. Whether it is from the perspective of the team manager or the coach, Abu will not agree.

Changing the operating system and style is too risky.

Ed Zhu just gave him a death order, and he didn't dare to make such a subversive change under such pressure.

Seeing Ming Kai lowered his head, looking gloomy, Abu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Although Ah Guang became a monk halfway, his performance this year is not bad. If he trains well, he may not be the next Tong Yang. Wait until next year's summer competition, Xiao Zhao is ready to play."

When Xiao Zhao was mentioned, Ming Kai's eyes flashed brightly.

Hu Xianzhao, iboy, is a talented young man selected from the training program, a perfect substitute for Deft.

Strong operation, good mentality, big heart, the most important thing is to be young enough, just turned 16 this year.

On one side is the 20-year-old Qin Ge with injuries, and on the other is the 16-year-old iboy with a promising future. Any coach with a normal IQ will make the right choice.

That's why Abu decisively passed Qin Ge.

"Xiao Zhao won't be able to play until next year's summer split, so what about the spring split?" Ming Kai asked.

"There are no good candidates in China at the moment, I plan to go to the LCK to find an experienced player to take the top first."

"That's fine too!"

Ming Kai nodded in agreement, but when his eyes swept over the analyst's report on the table, a strange feeling flashed in his heart.

It's as if... a certain treasure has been missed.
