All the ghosts, you let me win the championship?

Chapter 223 Mid-Season Championship Match

Before leaving the stadium, Jiang Liu saw a few familiar faces.

"Congratulations, congratulations."

"What about killing Xiaohu solo? Young Master Leng, can you do it?"

Playing EDG, Condi and others, who also ended the game early, walked over slowly after the interview, greeted each other, and joked with each other.

This time the finals and the third place battle, the battle ended very quickly.

However, WE did not repeatedly pull the dragon with EDG, which Jiang Liu did not expect.

But listening to Xiye's teasing voice, Young Master Leng was very sincere.

"It's fine if you can win, why do you want to kill alone?"

"That's not what you said when you hit me..."

"I can't help it, who told you to be a dish!" Young Master Leng raised his eyebrows.

The elder brother-in-law at the side immediately booed when he heard this.

"Our mid laners are idiots!"

However, everyone's ridicule was ridicule. It was obvious that this group of people came here for a meal.

After all, who doesn’t love bungalow hotpot?

Even Jiang Liu can't help feeling... Ma Ge's frequency of treats is probably not LPL No. 1.

Basically, as long as you have a good relationship with him, you can get it.

Fortunately, this time, he won the spring championship by himself, and he was rich and powerful, not to mention that he didn't need to make a move at all.

The team leader behind him, under the signal of Jane Eyre, directly stated that the club will reimburse all the expenses of the people in the past two days.

After everyone made an appointment to leave.

"Only two days?" Jiang Liu turned around and teased.

"Otherwise?" Mingzhe on the side rolled his eyes, "The mid-season game will start on the 28th, and we still need to apply for a passport."

"Ah? Time is so tight?" Jiang Liu was taken aback for a moment, "Can we make it in time?"

"It's okay, the mid-season championship game will start on the 28th, but that's just the play-in round. We can directly play the group stage without playing the play-in round." The team leader on the side said with a smile, "The first game should be at NO.11 next month. Left and right, as for who to fight, it will depend on the lottery."

"Why can we directly play in the group stage?" Xiao Liu asked subconsciously, "Don't need to play in the play-in stage?"

"The mid-season championship game is arranged according to the results of the competition area." Mingzhe explained, "I said before that the competition area also has strengths and weaknesses, and then Riot divided the competition area into three echelons according to the strength."

"Because our LPL, European LCS and LCK divisions, in the 2015 Mid-Season Championships, 2015 Global Finals, and 2016 Global Finals, the combined results completely surpassed the North American LCS division, roughly equal to or even surpassed the LMS. "

"That's why the spring champion teams of the LPL, European LCS, and LCK divisions automatically qualify for the group stage of the 2017 Mid-Season Championship."

"Three teams from our three divisions advance to the group stage by default, while the other three teams need teams from other divisions to get out of the play-in competition."

"In the group stage, there are a total of 6 teams, and the double round-robin system will play a single game. The top four teams with points can advance to the knockout stage of BO5."

"Although our LPL has always been overwhelmed by the LCK, we are still at the bottom, so try not to lose to the wild card, otherwise it will be really embarrassing."

"Also, it's not a Bo3, but a single match, so... don't keep your hole cards, wild card teams are no better than LPL, they are very creative."

Jiang Liu took Mingzhe's words seriously and agreed with them very much.

Because many of the gameplays in his hands were actually developed by the wild card team later.

Especially the veterans of the European LCS, that is a treasure chest.

For example, Shen in the setting sun before, matched his Nightmare ult, which actually originated from their later combination of Kayn + Shen.

"It's a pity that Kayn hasn't come out yet, otherwise he would be a very good jungler."

"The hero Kayn is really hard to guard against..."

Thinking of this, Jiang Liu was suddenly taken aback.

Speaking of Kayn, King Ning should probably go to IG, right?

This Kayn, he still has to learn his own skills secretly!
It's just... presumably Brother Shy, he shouldn't take out a hero like Shen, right?
Thinking of this, Jiang Liu grinned slightly.

"Although I can't find a way to suppress you, I have found a way to make you useless."

"To mix...you have to mix with all living beings to be equal."

Shaking his head, he put his thoughts aside.

Honestly followed the hot pot.

The last time the whole team was so happy was when the old thief spouted five words and annihilated and counter-killed EDG.

After drinking and eating, Jiang Liu decided to call his family and explain the situation.

Most of the previous competitions were in China, and most of them were concentrated in Shanghai, not far away. Except for relatively large competitions, it may be necessary to prepare in advance. In most cases, it is enough to pass a day in advance.

But this time, after all, he was going abroad.

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Liu's father didn't say anything, he just hummed and asked.

"Going abroad to compete? It will cost a lot, is it short of money?"

"Don't worry, the club arranged it, and we don't need to pay for it."

There was silence on the phone for a while.

"When you're away from home, it's better to rely on yourself than to ask for help. It's always good to prepare more."

"I'm rich, don't worry, there are quite a lot of bonuses this time."

"Okay, just talk to me if you need anything."

After the phone call ended, Jiang Liu couldn't help sighing.

In fact, my father has always been skeptical about the path he chose.

He has no way to understand this industry, and there are naturally many misunderstandings.

But he still cares about himself in his own way.

As for the mother...

Jiang Liu had a headache.

When he first played professionally, he was verbose, but this time he had to run so far, and he had to be verbose a lot.

The phone call passed, as expected.

On the other end of the phone, my mother was chattering while feeding the cat, and the meowing and chattering on the other end echoed each other, like a symphony.

Jiang Liu had to explain a lot of things to his mother.

"It's okay, it's just a long trip, the competition is all arranged, and someone will take care of it, don't worry."

"Hey, don't worry about your living habits. It doesn't matter how long you've been there. Let's just eat hamburgers at worst...Junk food? When are you still caring about this? It's not like I haven't eaten it before..."

"Don't worry, I won't run around, the team leader will take care of it."

"I know, I know...Brazil! Go to Brazil! I've told you all, and you don't even know if I tell you!"

Finally the ramblings are over.

Jiang Liu lay on the bed speechless, dazed.

He was an adult and treated like a child.

However, compared to other teammates, he is somewhat ignorant of the world.

Born in a small place, by chance, he has come to the present.

Daily life is also extremely simple, qualifying, training matches, competitions, occasionally joking with friends, as for the others, really nothing.

As for the group stage, Jiang Liu didn't know whether it was Sao Paulo or Rio de Janeiro.

Anyway, it’s just going to another place to play for about half a month.

With thoughts, Jiang Liu fell into a deep sleep.

The next day.

In the waiting room, Mingzhe has already started preparing for the battle in advance.

Probably because he knows that he doesn't have much talent in BP, and now Mingzhe is running towards the direction of Heart.

In other words, mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

He even took over a lot of the team leader's work.

Include what needs to be prepared and precautions.

"In terms of peripherals, everyone pay attention."

"Bring two sets, especially the one used for training, both of which."

"It's going to be jet-lagged, and when the time comes, it's still a Bo1 game, and it's easy to overturn."

Listening to Mingzhe's words, Leng Shao couldn't help but tease.

"As far as our usual living habits are concerned, in the past we still needed jet lag? Didn't we get used to it long ago?"

"That's true..." Mingzhe froze for a moment.

He hadn't thought about it before.

Still, he went on to add.

"Pay attention to the teams in the play-in competition. After all, by then, three of them will enter the group stage, and no matter which division they are in, they all have tactics worth learning."

"In the current group stage, apart from us, the other two teams have also been determined."

"SKT in the LCK division, and G2 in the European LCS division."

"If you have time, watch more of their game videos and study the opponent's style of play."

"Although the coaching staff does research a bit more, but at the critical moment, you are the ones on the field, and you have to rely on yourself when the time comes."

Listening to Mingzhe's words, Jiang Liu nodded while being puzzled.

He always felt as if something was missing.

After thinking for a long time.

He finally clapped his hands!

"Ah coach...then what..."

"If the mid-season wins the championship, then wouldn't the LPL this year..."

In addition to bonuses, the mid-season game actually has another function.

That is to determine who is the world's number one division that year.

The region that wins the championship will have one more place in the global finals.

In other words, in today's LPL, there are currently three seeded teams that can enter the finals.

If they can win the mid-season championship this time, then LPL will have an additional seed spot.

Hearing this, the expression on Mingzhe's face visibly froze.

The team leader on the side shrugged.

It seems to be saying "Look, isn't the worrying thing coming?"

The two looked at each other, Mingzhe finally sighed, patted Jiang Liu on the shoulder, and said.

"It's always good to have a dream..."

"It's just that you have to be clear about one thing."

"Winning the spring championship just means that we have the qualifications to challenge each other."

"By the way, although you didn't broadcast live, recently, don't say some strange things like before."

Jiang Liu was at a loss at this time.

But looking at everyone's expressions, he paused for a while before finally waking up!
"Ah! Got it!"

If I had to describe it, it would be...

Don't say anything, don't talk too soon!
After all, how high-spirited Wei Shen was at the beginning, and how miserable he was when he was sprayed.

However, after being reminded by Mingzhe, Jiang Liu sneaked into Weibo and browsed around during the rest time, and finally understood the seriousness of the matter.

Today's OMG is not what it used to be.

As the core of the rhythm, plus between S6 and S7, he is the only one missing on the list.

He was naturally pushed to center stage.

OMG itself is a team that is very good at operations and the first to do commercialization. In the ancient times of the dark forces, it was full of various gimmicks, and even came up with something like a women's team.

Later, due to poor grades, the operation was temporarily put on hold, and Jane Eyre left the post, but it did not mean that her contacts also disappeared.

Now, with the championship in the spring competition and the return of Jane Eyre, everything is gradually recovering.

For the team, this is a good thing, but for the players, it is not necessarily a good thing.

The size of the fans is just a burden to the players.

And the one that has the greatest impact...is flattery.

Sometimes, watching those articles and videos boasting about himself, Jiang Liu himself felt a little embarrassed.

As for floating...it's still a little floating.

Fortunately, Jiang Liu would adjust himself most of the time.

Every time I feel invincible, I go to Solo Leng Shao.

After being abused a few times, he naturally became sober.

"Speaking of... the hero microphone is a good thing..."

"Damn it, every time there are gossips, they're blowing me up! As soon as the microphone comes out for the competition, everyone will know it all?"

"I've said it all! Sometimes I freak out in a panic!"

"The bullshit counts as a plan, and the bullshit is also in your calculations? There is no skill, it's all luck!"

Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Liu subconsciously opened the latest OMG video that was posted on the official blog last night.

Before he could see things clearly, Jiang Liu heard his own screams.

"Wait! Don't! Little Wu! No! Mr. Wu! Slow down! No! Take it easy! Damn!"

At that moment, Jiang Liu remembered.

When Xiao Wu rushed over, he didn't even take off his earphones!

In addition to being pinched by Xiao Wu, he was also pulled by the earphones.

Thinking of this, Jiang Liu became furious!
"Damn! You can communicate with the old thief now, go hug him! Why hug me?"

"Oh, I've already hugged my mind!" Xiao Wu gestured and laughed.

When Jiang Liu came back to his senses, he looked at the bottom of the video, it was full of hahahahaha, his eyes almost hurt from the noise.

In the comment area, there was even a clear distinction between two factions.

On one side is the male mother pie, one mouthful of disgusting comments such as "Great treasure, don't worry, mom will always be with you" and "Great treasure, don't be C, mom is afraid".

On the other side, they are self-cutting in the enclosure and starting to form CP.

"Wait a minute? Are you fucking going too far!"

"Forget about Xiye and brother-in-law's CP, me and Xiao Wu???"

"Hiss! No...my blood pressure has risen, I have to wash my eyes."

Looking at Jiang Liu who had broken his defense and left, Young Master Leng beside him curled his lips and muttered.

"The blood pressure has risen, take a cold shower to calm down! Why wash your eyes?"

He was naturally not curious about what would be in the comment area.

Anyway, the pants fell all over the place.

But listening to the video posted by the official blog, Jiang Liu was talking to himself and muttering again, as if talking about stand-up comedy, he couldn't help but subconsciously laughed.

"This kid... if he can broadcast live, he is probably more interesting than us."

"Speaking of it... the jungle position doesn't take much manipulation, and the laning pressure is not too high, so it's normal to talk a little bit more."

"But since he came, the atmosphere has indeed improved a lot."
