That's what we do with silver

Chapter 234 Thank you for the invitation

The spring final has just been played.

Then there will be the upcoming MSI mid-season.

It can be said that among the current top LOL events in the world, apart from the S game, the MSI mid-season game has the most gold content.

Although it is not as popular as the IG Bird's Nest in the previous S7 finals, but as the only world-class competition in the first half of 18, this MSI also attracted a lot of attention.

Just now watching IG win the S7 championship, the LPL fans who are on the head of excitement are still looking forward to IG continuing to kill the Quartet in the World Championship and regaining all the honors lost in the past few years!

Not to mention the LCK side, the dominance for several consecutive years was won by IG in S7. Such a result directly made many LCK fans from last year to this year still unable to accept this. Reality, now that I think about it, I still feel brooding and frustrated.

My heart was already suffocated, and I was waiting to count on MSI to take revenge.

Therefore, for this year's MSI, fans of LPL and LCK, everyone is very excited and full of expectations.

Coupled with the return of a large number of old domestic players after IG won the S7 championship, and a large amount of publicity with sufficient official funds, to a certain extent, the pre-match popularity of MSI this time is not even much worse than that of S7.

Everyone is looking forward to whether IG will continue to continue the undefeated myth, or KZ will be able to avenge its shame.

On the eve of the start of MSI, the LCK also put on a special program, inviting a bunch of famous LCK commentators to analyze in a serious manner if KZ meets IG, what will be the winner of the two sides.

During the live broadcast of the program, a group of LCK guests also expressed their opinions.

"Although IG is still in the dominant position in the LPL at present, a record of not losing seems terrifying, but from another perspective, can it be considered that the overall confrontation intensity of the LPL is actually too low? "

"Indeed, if you look at it this way, although KZ on the LCK side lost two games, it also proves that the intensity of confrontation in the LCK division is very high. In this environment, the champion KZ won is more valuable."

"Also, Khan's state has been outstanding throughout the spring. I feel that he has surpassed himself in S7. Although Lancer still looks perfect, Khan now feels that he is completely capable of competing with Lancer."

"Besides, Peanut is also in very good condition in terms of the jungler. His performance in the four rounds of the finals was quite impressive. In the LPL Spring Finals that just ended, we did see IG's Ning, In fact, one point was suppressed by RNG's Karsa, and from this point of view, Peanut may be the most critical point for KZ to defeat IG."

"And the current KZ tactics are quite diverse, any hero can be used."

"Another important point is, I don't know if you have noticed it, but compared to the frequent surprise moves in the S7 period, this year's IG has not come up with a new routine that is eye-catching for a long time. To some extent, can it be used as a signal that IG's tactical thinking is exhausted?"

"That's right, last year's IG was invincible in operations, and its tactical routines seemed endless. It was impeccable from beginning to end, which once made everyone feel desperate."

"However, this year's IG tactical style has undergone tremendous changes. Instead, they no longer pay attention to routines and operations, but prefer to win in line suppression and team battles. This undoubtedly makes their winning formula less perfect and stable. , which is undoubtedly good news.”

"..."

On the live broadcast, a group of Korean commentators and guests discussed in earnest, and even listed a bunch of strange data from unknown sources to prove that KZ God of War IG has a high probability.

And this series of pre-match publicity trends also greatly increased the confidence of many LCK fans.

All of a sudden, both real Koreans and pseudo-Koreans began to discuss this matter frantically on the Internet, advocating for KZ overtly and secretly.

In such an environment of public opinion, even in major domestic forums, all kinds of weird remarks have begun to appear.

[It can actually keep a team from losing a game, LPL is like chicken pecking at each other]

[IG's full victory and championship can't hide the overall decline of LPL, KZ regretted losing two games to show the demeanor of the LCK king]

[The overall strength of the LPL competition area is really bad]

【…】

As always, the classic pre-match laning session began again online.

However, unlike the LPL fans who were always overwhelmed by "what kind of champion are you" in the past, this time, they were finally able to respond with a straight line.

"My IG is the fresh S7 champion who stepped on your Korean father to win the championship without losing a game. How about you KZ stinky quarterfinals?" '

It can only be said that this feeling of full confidence is really refreshing and comfortable.

As a result, on the major domestic LOL forums, a little Korean miscellaneous forces that had just resurged were quickly extinguished by force just after they emerged, which is really satisfying.

At the same time, when netizens were having a great time fighting online, the long-awaited MSI finally started.

May [-]rd, starting from Berlin, Germany.

May NO.20, ended in Paris, France.

And the final result did not exceed the expectations of 'most people'.

IG defeated KZ three to zero and won the championship.

Yes, that's right!

It's that simple.

KZ, who was originally inferior to RNG in terms of hard power, was completely unable to play when he encountered an IG with the same style as his team, but with a level of configuration compared to him in all aspects.

Somehow, RNG caused some troubles for IG.

However, after the three rounds of the KZ game, facing IG who was in full swing, they were crushed and beaten almost from the beginning to the end.

The three-way laning and laning can't be played, the rhythm of the jungler is crushed, and every round is played, and it is logical that it collapses.

Even the commentators of the LCK under the observation of God's perspective throughout the whole process don't know how to win.

In this way, under the desperate eyes of all Han Zaru, the KZ team, which they placed high hopes on, once again became the background board for IG's chaos, and became the perfect stepping stone for IG's first MSI championship.

On April 28th, IG defeated RNG and won the team's first LPL Spring Championship.

May NO.20, IG defeated KZ and won the team's first MSI mid-season championship.

In just one month, the IG team has won two championships, plus the LPL Summer Championship and S17 Finals in 7, plus the Winter Demacia Cup Finals.

Unknowingly, when people looked at this IG honor collection, they suddenly found out.

The current IG team, apart from the intercontinental competition, is only a short distance away from achieving the team honor grand slam!

All of a sudden, in the entire Chinese LOL circle, the popularity and popularity of the IG team reached its peak.

As the world's number one team, the glory and status represented by IG itself has attracted more and more capital and markets, more and more fans and media attention, and the e-sports market has begun to grow bigger and bigger.

Naturally, the benefits of the entire IG club from the boss to the grassroots employees, especially the members of the team, have all increased accordingly.

On the surface, it looks like a thriving scene, hello everyone.

However, in such a bright environment no matter how you look at it.

As IG is currently the most popular, the highest honor, and the largest number of fans, there is no doubt that the LPL is currently the number one traffic star player.

Zhao Yun himself has been feeling a little anxious recently, and his mood is not very beautiful.

Two questions.

The first thing is that after winning the Msi and returning to China, in an ordinary Rank game, he was in a bad state because he didn't sleep well and was sleepy. He played the whole game in a daze like sleepwalking. Lost the game.

At that time, seeing the extremely unfamiliar 'failure' on his settlement interface, Zhao Yun immediately became sober up on the spot, and he was stunned.

He, Zhao Yun... actually lost in the rank ranking!

On the night of Children's Day, I just went to the amusement park with my teammates during the day and came back. At night, I yawned and hit the last one before going to bed. He lost!
Since the crossing in June last year, Rank Ranking has been a habit of crazy winning streak. He has long forgotten what it feels like to lose Ranking, but at this time, he tasted the taste of failure for the first time in a long time!
The winning streak in ranking for nearly a year was suddenly cut off.

And he was still playing money stealing Karma, the value of the things he stole in a whole game was not even one-tenth of the usual value!

There is one thing to say, at that moment, Zhao Yun was really frightened.

Not to mention the sleepiness, even the urge to urinate was immediately frightened away.

'Fuck!what's the situation? '

'My talent has failed?The good times are coming to an end? '

Caught off guard, Zhao Yun was so flustered that he couldn't help shivering on the spot.

In panic, he couldn't sleep.

Hastily opened another game, and nervously chose the Barbarian King, ready to test whether his luck was really gone.

Then, the results of the test finally let him breathe a sigh of relief.

In the first-level duel, A scored four critical hits with five swords.

Then in the follow-up team battles and duels, luck was always on his side.

Everything is still exactly the same as before.

After playing this round, Zhao Yun's heart sank.

But even so, when he opened the record to check, among the green victories, the extremely eye-catching red 'failure' made him always surrounded by anxiety.

'no!When things happen suddenly, there must be a demon! '

"I haven't lost in a year, no matter how big the disadvantage was before, I can win. Today, it is obviously a balance of power, but I lost suddenly. This is very abnormal!" '

'There must be a special reason for this, we must find it out! '

"If there is one, there will be two. Now it is just a loss in the rank. If there is another luck failure in the game in the future, without this biggest support, how can I gain a foothold in the professional arena where there are many masters?"Isn't it a direct G? '

'No no no!Be sure to find out the problem! '
'...'

With such thoughts in mind, Zhao Yun played another game with great apprehension.

In the second round, he played another round of money-stealing Karma with great concentration.

Then, everything was normal throughout the whole process, and like most of the time, the matchup easily won the game with a lead of 6000 yuan.

"I didn't find anything wrong, come again!"

Frowning, Zhao Yun resolutely started the third game.

Then in this round, I played Stealing Money Kenan, and the game process was not much different from usual. Although the start was at a disadvantage, but relying on the perfect performance of the Stealing Omen and the cooperation of his teammates, he successfully turned the game and won.

"Luck is still there, no problem, come again!"

Unable to find the problem, Zhao Yun chose to continue the game.

In the fourth game, win.

Game five, win.

In the sixth game, win.

……

Just like that, Zhao Yun, whose mind was full of wanting to find out what the problem was, directly stayed up all night in the training room uncharacteristically.

At ten o'clock the next morning, when Ah Shui was the first to enter the training room, Zhao Yun was still sitting on a chair and concentrating on playing Rank.

Like all Internet addicted teenagers who just finished the night, their spirits obviously showed normal depression.

Immediately, this scene made Ah Shui's eyes widen and he exclaimed.

"Damn it! Brother Yunzi, what the hell! The sun came out from the west! What the fuck did you stay up all night?"

Ah Shui's tone was full of excitement.

Four shits in a row, the shock in his heart was vividly reflected.

Because since he came to IG, in his impression, he has never seen Zhao Yun survive the night, and he must go back to sleep at most one o'clock every day.

In the past year, even if there was a big event, Zhao Yun was still unshakable and extremely self-disciplined in terms of sleep.

Therefore, in the entire IG club, Zhao Yun is recognized as the number one 'health brother'.

But now, what did he see?
Zhao Yun played all night in the training room?

Ah Shui's eyes widened, and he forgot to drink the bottled milk in his hand on the spot.

As for Ah Shui's exaggerated reaction, Zhao Yun, who had just finished a round, was very impatient because he hadn't found the reason, but on the surface he replied lightly.

"Don't you just stay overnight, what a fuss."

Then, ignoring Ah Shui's gaze, Zhao Yun yawned and started another round while suppressing his sleepiness.

There's no way, although he's a little tired, but he really can't sleep if he doesn't understand this matter.

Anyway, it's still a healthy body, it doesn't matter if you suffer it occasionally, you have to figure out what you say today.

With this in mind, he entered the game again.

Tried and explored again and again.

After this attempt, another two hours passed.

Finally, when he felt that his eyelids were starting to fight crazily, his concentration began to lose focus, and his hands were a little out of control, he finally got something different.

His game!Lost again!

Yes, that's right!Lost again!

On top of his green streak, another bright red 'failure'!
And this time, because of deliberate comparison and thinking, he keenly discovered the reason that might cause him to lose the game.

That is!
In this round, compared to him in previous rounds, he is less determined to win or lose!
In short, when his physical and mental state is not good enough, he can no longer take care of winning games and finding reasons.

In this game, his mind was full of wanting to find out the reason why his luck failed as soon as possible, so he played the whole game very casually, did not do what he should do at all, and even made very low-level mistakes in a few waves. A mistake caused his side to lose the team battle.

In the end, Zhao Yun, who had always been invincible in robbing the baron, failed for the first time when the opposing jungler was killed. He directly lost the game.

After summarizing and comparing, Zhao Yun also came up with a conjecture that sounds fantastic, but currently seems to be the most likely.

That is.

When he doesn't pay enough attention to the game mentally and doesn't have awe of victory and defeat, his talent will disappear.

In the most vivid sentence, it is.

Poor people don't deserve to win.
