Duan Deliang looked solemn as he wanted to understand the key relationship.
"League of Legends Designer... This move is too much!"
Xiao Duan was indignant, "Among several strong teams, I am the only one who plays expendable soft support. It's obvious that they are here for me!"
Take the top teams participating in the mid-season tournament as an example.
G2's Madlife is getting old, and its offensive capabilities have long since deteriorated.
Moreover, the Thresh robot he became famous for back then was a good player at roaming, and he did not put much emphasis on laning during his peak period.
The same goes for Gloria from Dragon Ball.
If Xuan Ming and Xuan Ming could deal with Duan Deliang's Zyra in the training match last year, they wouldn't have developed such a strange trick as a female spear assist!
It can be said that among the spring championship teams in major leagues, they are the only ones who play expendable soft assistants for short periods of time!
The intentions of the fist are not concealed at all!
"I don't dare to arbitrarily extrapolate the impact of other version updates," Hongmi concluded in one sentence, "but as long as the money-stealing value of Spellthief's Blade is not changed, heroes like Zyra in the summer will not be able to appear.
"
The weakening is simply too severe.
Spellstealing Blade needs to be triggered 80 times to upgrade the mission. Even if it can be triggered 5 times a minute in a game, it will take about 15 minutes to wait until the stack is full to upgrade!
How to play?
Redmi doesn’t even need actual qualifying and training match data to prove it, but it can be certain that the expendable soft support will fall from the altar due to the disguised reduction in the strength of the Sword Stealing Blade!
"There are two remaining auxiliary equipment route options. I currently recommend the Holy Relic Shield. It is suitable for hard support and protection support. Killing minions can provide healing to teammates, increase the ADC's fault tolerance rate in the line, and it also has protection when stacking tasks.
Shield batteries can increase flatness..."
Hongmi looked at his support and made his request, "Change your hero pool first. Your burden in the summer split will be heavier."
Duan Deliang looked calm and worried.
Before today's meeting, he was very happy, thinking that he would practice on Gu Xing first when using his fist. Unexpectedly, he would be the first to bear the brunt!
Now Duan Deliang's mood is like riding a roller coaster, falling rapidly from high to the bottom.
But countless bloody facts in history are before our eyes.
Contrary to the version specified, there is no good juice to eat!
No matter how unhappy Duan Deliang is, he can only adapt to changes honestly.
"It's okay," Gu Xing consoled him, "Old Duan, aren't you playing well with Bronn?"
Starting from the second half of the Spring Split, Duan Deliang's first-hand Braum support has made countless contributions to the team.
"After all, I didn't waste any help!" Xiao Duan slumped on the chair and slumped, whispering nonstop, "Why am I so unlucky..."
Jack laughed gloatingly at first.
Then Gu Xing glanced at him and said, "You're still laughing. You don't feel unaffected by the support being cut, do you?"
The corners of Yu Wenbo's mouth closed at the speed of light.
As we all know, look for support in the bottom lane.
Throughout the spring, as long as Duan Deliang received expendable support, he could help the bottom lane at least achieve a level situation.
Now that the Spell Stealing Blade has been cut, the laning strength of the VG duo will undoubtedly drop by several steps!
In the summer split, after losing the driving role of his strong support, it is still unclear what kind of answer Jack will be able to deliver in the competition in the LPL bot lane!
"On my way to the base, I heard Jing Hao complaining about too little vacation," Hongmi said after thinking for a moment, "While there is still some time before the summer split, everyone can relax a little..."
"As long as the daily Rank amount is maintained at around 10 games, let's wait for two days before starting the appointment."
Everyone was overjoyed.
Without training matches, 10 qualifying games in one day is just drizzle for professional players!
"Woohoo!" Song Jinghao raised his arms and shouted, feeling that he could finally rest well and recharge his energy.
However, in the next two days, he realized something was wrong. And his
Completely different expectations.
No rest time at all!
Invitations from brands, interviews and official shooting arrangements for the Summer Games came one after another like snowflakes.
The whole VG team is in a state of continuous rotation. They often leave the base when they wake up in the morning and only come back in the evening.
In this case, 10 rounds of ranking seems to be an extremely heavy task!
Hongmi saw it, but there was nothing he could do.
The mid-season version has been launched, and the requirement for 10 qualifying rounds every day is already very low. If the requirements are relaxed again, not only will the players not be able to adapt to the version, they will not even be able to guarantee their own status!
Gu Xing actually enjoyed it.
He will not regard League of Legends as his entire life.
However, my current partner and parents are not around, so playing other games is not as interesting as LOL!
The new version of Pig Girl and Zach made Gu Xing feel the beauty of innocence, and the richer and more interesting hero gameplay made him unable to put it down.
However, the good times did not last long, and Gu Xing found that he was happy too early.
"Brother Xing, a sponsor wants you to shoot an advertisement tomorrow..." Ding Ran said coquettishly.
Ever since he said, "What I want is not to inherit the family business," he got a part-time job through his cousin Ding Jun - helping team leader Jin Wenhyuk organize the business.
As VG's popularity continues to rise, various endorsements and commercial activities are inevitable.
Jin Wenhe usually also serves as the team leader, and the work pressure is really a bit high, so Ding Ran comes over to help.
Gu Xinggang used Zach to win a ranked game, and in the last wave of team battles, he used R [Dynamic Pinball] to bring the two opposing heroes into his own formation to help the team win!
He was now feeling refreshed and even had the leisure to hum a few words in his father's name gracefully. Hearing his friend's words, Gu Xing didn't take it seriously.
"Then go, I have time," he looked up and saw Ding Ran's expression, and was immediately confused, "What trouble have you encountered?"
Ding Ran hesitated and wanted to explain it with words and sentences.
Jin Wenhe, who was passing by, couldn't stand it anymore and summed it up in one sentence, "It's a commercial for KFC. It's a big sponsor. People really value you, Brother Xing, so I asked you to shoot it."
He still remembered that he had said harsh words about looking down on KFC during his live broadcast two days ago. How could retribution come so quickly?
Only then did Gu Xing understand why Ding Ran was so hesitant just now.
"Can I ask how much the sponsorship fee is?" Gu Xing said in a vain tone. Jin Wenhe excitedly pointed out his five fingers, "Five million! Big business!"
The members of the VG training department spent a total of 30 million this year. Including base rent, water, electricity and dedicated lines, the total is about 3,500. KFC’s 5 million sponsorship is equivalent to 1/7 of the team’s expenses!
In this era when most e-sports clubs are losing money, it is not easy to get a large sponsorship of 500 yuan.
Looking at the entire LPL, only VG, which won the World Championship + Mid-Season Championship, can receive such a large contract.
Gu Xing saw Jin Wenhe's wolf-like expression that wanted to eat someone, and he knew in his heart that he couldn't escape.
Just for these 5 million, Jin Wenhe had to arrest him no matter what he said! He had no choice but to agree with his head down.
In the afternoon of the next day, Gu Xing, who had completed the KFC shooting task, drove to the LPL makeup photo shoot site and almost collapsed.
"What's going on?" Sb asked with concern, "It's just an advertisement. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be!"
Gu Xing has always been a model student in the eyes of photographers and directors.
My facial shape and body shape are quite outstanding in the e-sports circle, and I never mind being awkward during filming.
Previously, whether it was a promotional video or a final makeup photo, he could complete the shooting as quickly as possible.
Song Jinghao didn't expect that his jungler would stumble at KFC!
"It seems that money is really hard to make. A billion Korean won sponsorship is not enough.
I got it for free, and the requirements are high and reasonable." Sb thought that his guess was reasonable, and murmured to Kuro in a low voice.
"To be fair, the advertising side's requirements are not very high," Gu Xing said with a pale face, "It's just a bit difficult for me to accept... There is a suspicion of violating one's conscience."
Sb doesn't understand what he is talking about.
Upon seeing this, Ding Ran explained to the new top laner who didn't understand the situation, "Brother Xing doesn't drink Pepsi, do you understand?"
Song Jinghao suddenly realized, "I'm telling you, I always choose Coca-Cola every time I see sales. That's it!"
He looked at Gu Xing and patted Gu Xing's shoulder sympathetically to express comfort.
Fortunately, Gu Xing adjusted his mentality very quickly - after all, thinking about the 500 sponsorship, he immediately felt less uncomfortable.
Because of this, the afternoon league makeup photo shoot went very smoothly. Eleven other teams were present at the same time.
Professional players from all the LPL gathered together, turning it into a large social scene!
When Shi Senming saw Gu Xing, he smiled and came up to say hello.
"How about we, the seven wolves, have a dinner together in the evening? I wanted to make a dinner date with you just after the mid-season, but I never had time!"
Gu Xing was dealing with Song Yijin, guiding Broiler to find Yu Wenbo. When he heard Xiao Ming's words, he responded without hesitation, "No problem, you can call the NB Geminis over here!"
As soon as he bid farewell to the broiler, he welcomed his old friend World Girl.
"Hey, isn't this a new JD.com employee?" Gu Xing smiled and punched orld6 in the chest.
The girl from the world smiled happily and showed off her pair of signature little tiger teeth, "That's right, I feel a little happy to be able to become Brother Dong's brother!"
His team, QG, decided to sell its League of Legends division during the mid-season transfer period this year.
Mainly I want to use my money in the emerging field of mobile e-sports and invest in the Honor of Kings project, which I think is more promising.
QGHappy, which was founded by the club, is also doing well so far.
In the end, the two companies jointly funded the purchase and takeover of QG’s League of Legends division.
The first is Yuanchu Education, which holds 60% of the shares; the second is Yixun.com, which holds 40% of the shares.
At first glance, it seems that it has nothing to do with JD.com.
But Yixun.com is a wholly-owned subsidiary of JD.com!
With this piece of information, everything becomes clearer.
Although Yuanchu Education was the majority shareholder of this team, Yixun.com was willing to invest money at that time because it wanted to enter the e-sports field and attract traffic to advertise for the parent company.
In the end, the boss of Yuanchu Education agreed to name the team after the company behind the two shareholders.
The reason is that they also want to use JD.com’s gimmicks and influence to attract audiences by using a tiger skin as a banner.
And the name of the person at the helm of this original education company is Lan Baiqing!
Having said that, although JD.com is not the big boss of JDG, it still contributes money. It is not wrong to say that its member Jijimei is Brother Dong’s brother.
"Tonight we draw lots for each group. This time I have to pray that I won't be in the same group as you, brother Xing," the world girl made a wish, "otherwise there will be no results in the summer competition!"
In the spring split, QG was placed in the same group as VG. In the end, it was Doinb's dean-level carry performance that brought the team into the playoffs.
Then he was happily sent away by EDG in the first round!
The World Girl left VG and competed alone for half a year, and now her appetite has grown a lot. His goal is not only the playoffs, but also farther away!
"Then you have to find Lin Weixiang and ask him to tell your fortune and predict it in advance..." Gu Xing pushed World Girl to his good brother, but before he could take a breath, he was pulled back by Holy Spear Brother.
Tian Ye is hanging on Li Xuanjun, and their walking movements look exactly like the Ogre Mage in Dota 2.
"I haven't had time to say congratulations to you in person after winning MSI. Isn't it too late to do it now?"
Brother Shengqiang sincerely sent his congratulations, and did not forget to look at Gu Xing up and down, unable to hide the envy in his eyes.
When the summer split started last year, he heard that Gu Xing and Dong Xiaosa were not on good terms.
Wrong, I thought there was going to be another younger brother in the LPL.
Who would have imagined that he would win the league championship when he debuted, and achieve something that he had not achieved in his three-year career in the first step!
Subsequently, he directly won the first World Championship in the history of the LPL!
Gu Xing achieved results that Brother Shengqiang could not even imagine in one year and became the most popular e-sports star in the LPL!
There is a gap of several streets between the two in terms of honor!
To say that I am not envious is definitely unrealistic.
Li Xuanjun currently feels a bit like Uzi in terms of forum public opinion.
Both of them are very good, but they haven't won the league championship for several years since their debut, and there are a lot of fans who praise them.
In the opinion of some netizens on the forum, how can a professional player with no championship be so shameless as to boast?
The difference between these two players is probably that Brother Shengqiang has a higher emotional intelligence, is relatively low-key, and his performance is far inferior to that of Uzi, who also has no championship, so whether he is a die-hard fan or a negative fan, the number is much smaller.
Brother Shengqiang occasionally surfs, but he knows that he has no honor, and feels a bit unable to hold his head high among the current LPL top laners.
The more he thought about it, the more he was amazed at Gu Xing's impressive achievements in the past year.
"Both of us are defeated, and it brings tears of bitterness just thinking about it," Meiko sighed briefly, "Brother Xing, you are the same, can't you be more forceful?"
"Huh?" Gu Xing made a confused nasal sound. He didn't know what Tian Tian's words meant.
"If VG hadn't lost to Longzhu in the second game of the mid-season finals, it would have been a 3-0 sweep." Meiko pointed her fingers to explain her logic, "Our EDG Spring Split was also happily sent away by VG 3-0."
"Doesn't that mean EDG=Dragon Ball?" Tian Tian said more and more enthusiastically, "After all, it's three to zero, I can do it!"
Gu Xing's head is full of black lines.
Brother Shengqiang has never encountered BO5 with VG, but after thinking about it, he found a good way to comfort himself mentally.
"Although I can't beat VG, I can torture your second team. If you think about it carefully, it doesn't hurt!"
In this year's promotion and relegation match, the Snakes VGP, headed by Holy Gun Brother, really taught this group of young and energetic young people a lesson.
Gu Xing finally sent these two people away, but was surrounded by other professional players.
He is now a favorite in the LPL division, and since Mu is a kind-hearted person, many players want to have a chat with him to build a closer relationship.
Fortunately, Gu Xingshe has the body-guarding attribute of Fear, so he is able to deal with both sides in front of everyone, and sometimes his teasing replies can even cause the surrounding colleagues to laugh in agreement.
By the time the filming was over, it was already 17:55. Gu Xing and Jin Wenhe reported and took the Seven Wolves to a dinner party.
This was the first group activity since the Spring Split, and everyone was chattering with endless topics to talk about.
"Big eyebrows, big eyebrows..." Jack smiled and hugged Lin Weixiang.
This was the first time Lin Weixiang heard this nickname. He blinked and realized it, and then immediately started to fight back, "What big eyebrow? Is it possible that your name is Big Tou?"
"Big-headed son, where is your little-headed father?"
Liu Qingsong was very venomous. Seeing Lin Weixiang being attacked, he stabbed Yu Wenbo again.
"In the future, the Great Inventor should ban Draven and become Jack's signature hero. After all, he is Big Head and a yordle, also known as Yuwen Poppy."
For a moment, Jack didn't realize how many points he had been hacked into.
When he entered the private room and was about to order, he tried to fight back, "I heard that you two demoted the team again? What a talent. Both bosses were taken advantage of!"
At this time, all the seven wolves, except the Xiangsong duo, laughed out loud. The room was filled with happy air.
Xiangguo's emotional intelligence is as stable as ever, "To be honest, I wonder if you two have some bad luck traits? You're almost killing the team!"
"It's excusable to be relegated once. How do you explain being relegated for two consecutive seasons?"
Liu Qingsong entered Rambo's red-hot state, lowered his head and gnawed his fingers without making a sound.
"Don't be embarrassed, aren't we back again?" Lin Weixiang retorted like a fool, "It's just that the boss spent a little money, but the final result is good!"
Gu Xing tried hard not to laugh out loud.
What Lin Weixiang said "spended a little bit" ended up being an eight-figure investment! Everything starts with the promotion and relegation games this spring.
Group A where VG was in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and there were five teams including RNG, Snake Team, IG, NB and QG.
Just looking at the lineup configuration of each team, we know that it is very difficult to make it to the playoffs even if you want to make it to the playoffs!
In the end, QG, where World Girl and Doinb belong, crossed the line with 8 wins and 8 losses and entered the playoffs. The Snakes team had to enter the relegation zone if they won 7 games.
Xiangsong's NB also has 7 wins. Because the score is lower than that of the Snakes, they can only compete in the relegation match as the bottom of Group A.
According to the rules, their first opponent is the last one in Group B, and the loser will be directly eliminated from the secondary league.
The last one in Group B is LGD.
The Optimistic Team is a bunch of bad guys who are messing around in the regular season, and their ranking is even lower than that of GT, which is the only C player in Jin Gong!
Waiting for the life-and-death relegation match, the Optimistic Family invited the patriarch Gao Dewei, who had previously been exempted from the war, to come out.
GodV is ready, and Xia Tian will bring his talents to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, which has just launched its server.
He did not refuse this time the request from the LGD management, which had a tense relationship, to lead the team to avoid relegation.
I just want to have a good time together and save some face for each other.
Gao Dewei, who had hardly played any training matches all year, made an extraordinary move, pressing his opponent Lao Wu to the ground and rubbing him like crazy!
The top laner Jinoo, nicknamed Swordsman, is also full of offensive talents, and with the support position Hirano Aya's recovery, the Optimistic Team is pushing forward in three directions!
On the other hand, NB.
The old and stateless person cannot shoulder the heavy responsibility of the C position.
The young Lin Weixiang was a ghost every game. He was given the nickname "Unpredictable God" and came to Wanxiang. His sudden death ability was even better than Jack's. No one knew whether he would be a super god or a super ghost in the next game.
!
In comparison, the strength of LGD is simply ridiculously high!
NB, which lost the first BO5, was directly sent to the secondary league, while LGD had a final showdown with YM, the runner-up of the LSPL Spring Split.
In front of the returning Gao Dewei, YM mid laner's golden left hand was as innocent as an unexperienced primary school student!
After being defeated in three sets, YM's promotion and relegation journey ended again!
Gao Dewei's LOL career ended gloriously with six consecutive victories in the relegation match. After the incident, he went to hide his merit and fame.
The NB boss who was eliminated early was very unhappy.
The LPL spot he bought from QG1.0 last year was eliminated after just one year of playing. It was a complete loss of face!
If left unchecked, all the money will be wasted - a seat in the second division is not valuable.
The sunk costs have been paid, and the NB boss didn't want to give up, so he decided to spend money to buy another LPL spot.
This time he set his sights on GT, which defeated the Snakes to avoid relegation. The other party happened to have the idea of selling their quota and cashing in, and the two parties hit it off and reached a deal!
NB acquired GT and changed it into NeBee, completing a small wave of filthy reincarnation.
Players from the two teams, the stronger one will stay in the LPL, and the weaker one will go to the LSPL.
Lin Weixiang poured a plate of hand-chopped mutton into the hot pot, still threatening the members of the Seven Wolves, "Just wait, we will have golden tribute in the summer split. Wash your necks one by one and wait!"
After the reorganization, NB will introduce the recognized thigh and GT top laner Jin Gong into the summer split@
The reason why I can watch the VG game with ease is that I haven’t lost my job. At most, some netizens will call them bad guys, but it won’t have much impact.
"Nicole, go ahead," Gu Xing consoled, "You will be assigned to a group with us again in the summer split. I have to let you two experience the cruelty of VG!
The loyal little brother Jack quickly nodded and followed, "That's right, you think you are good again just because you have a top laner, Dean? Where do you get the confidence from!
Liu Qingsong tried to express his own point of view, "It's all because Group A is too strong in the spring split. If we were in Group B, it would be impossible for us to compete in the relegation match!"
It's different from when they were in Greedy Sa. Xiangsong and his wife felt that they really tried their best this spring, and their current abilities are limited to this level.
The key to relegation lies in the fact that Group A has a strong average strength. There must always be two teams with poor average strength to participate in promotion and relegation.
If it goes to Group B, NB might actually be able to make it to the playoffs!
"Besides, there is LGD, a team B that doesn't play according to the rules," Liu Qingsong picked up a chopstick of beef and kept complaining, "who can win with the last-to-last personnel configuration and this state?"
If the relegation match encounters GT, Liu Qingsong is confident enough to win the game! Unfortunately, it is LGD, they have no ability to fight back throughout the whole process!
"Firefighter Gao Dewei won't fight anymore," Gu Xing dipped the sesame sauce into his mouth and showed off the mutton, "If LGD still wants to show off in the summer game, they might be squeezed out!"
When Shi Senming saw that the time had reached seven o'clock in the evening, he quickly took out his mobile phone and said, "The drawing ceremony will be held soon. Are you ready?"
There were a total of 7 people present.
Two each from VG, RNG and NB@
They will play against each other in the game, and I feel that the two teams should be more familiar with each other.”
He could hardly control the raised corners of his mouth.
The four teams in the second pool show that RNG's lineup is more reasonable. With three powerful players such as Uzi, Xiaohu and Xiangguo, their upper limit is not low!
Give E the most difficult opponent, Lu Wenjun wants to see them consume the group first!
"Ouch!" Shi Senming said happily, "What good news!"
He looked at Gu Xing with gratitude in his eyes, "Thank you, Brother Xing, you really helped us a lot!"
After RNG finished the spring split, they found that it was unrealistic to beat VG in the regular season. In contrast, E was a better opponent to overturn!
For RNG, as long as E is defeated in Group B, they can secure the top spot! At the group scene, E manager Xiaoshou showed a helpless smile.
Before he took the stage, he guessed that Lu Wenjun would give him RNG, a tricky thing.
"I'll choose EDG for VG, so that Brother Xing can collide with his idol one more time." Xiaoshou joked.
Among the remaining three teams in the second pool, EDG is a wealthy team with undoubted strength, so it is reasonable to choose VG.
The little beast's choice is somewhat mixed with personal emotions.
The feud between E and EDG remains unresolved, so if Guodian meets VG, we can see what EDG looked like when they suffered a fiasco!
The drawn EDG and RNG managers came on stage and continued to assign teams to the other team's group according to the ranking order.
EDG chose Planet Light OMG for Group B. RNG had no choice and had to assign JD.com to Group A.
"Pool No. 3, IG, Snake Team, IM and NB..."
Gu Xing saw IG's Tai Chi icon and looked at his friends curiously, "I heard that IG has started recruiting people again?"
The mid-season transfer period just ended two days ago.
Compared with the winter transfer period, where big moves are made every year, mid-season transfers are much quieter. Strong teams with good results rarely make reinforcements—except RNG in S6.
Weak teams with no results don't expect to take off in the second half of the year through mid-season transfers. They might as well just keep playing poorly for the whole year.
Under a pool of stagnant water, IG is making frequent moves.
Previously, Ben and E were exchanged for Korean top laner Theshy, and a new jungler was introduced last week.
"Gao Zhenning," Shi Senming explained, "He just switched to jungle this year. He didn't win the promotion and relegation games in YM, so he approached PDD and asked the boss to help run it to IG. He said he wanted to have a taste of the top league, and his salary was...
No need."
Shi Senming sighed and sighed at the end.
Gao Zhenning’s mentality is easy to understand.
He has been struggling in the secondary league for nearly two years. Seeing all the players at the same level being promoted to the LPL, he feels very anxious.
Especially the Xiangsong duo who were treated like toys by Gao Zhenning last year. After being relegated, the NB boss bought an LPL spot and allowed these two to continue playing!
Seeing Gao Zhenning's heart is burning, he doesn't want to waste time in LSPL, he must go to the top league to see the world!
For this reason, he did not ask for salary and asked PDD to introduce him to his old club IG, and successfully passed the trial training to stay in the team.
"Hey guys, IG can even form a football team!" Gu Xing couldn't help but laugh or cry when he saw the roster displayed on the big screen.
"Don't make such a fuss, last year when IG formed a team in the bottom lane, it was already the size of a football team!" Xiang Guo mocked.
In the end, the Snakes and IM stayed in Group A, while IG and NB were assigned to Group B.
"Okay!" Lin Weixiang shouted excitedly, "Finally we can avoid VG!" They must achieve some results in the summer split!
Beethoven was still praying with his eyes closed, "Don't let me be assigned to Group A, don't mess with me..."
But Zuo Wu, the manager of the Snakes team, sentenced him to death with just one sentence, "New grader Suning will be assigned to Group A!"
"Don't!" Beethoven screamed. There was continuous laughter in the private room.
Especially Lin Wei
Xiang and Liu Qingsong could only take pleasure in the misfortune of their old teammates from the Greedy Sa era.
The 2017 LPL Summer Split group format is all presented to everyone.
Group A: VG, EDG, JDG, Snake, IM, SN.
Group B: E, RNG, OMG, IG, NB, LGD.
The LPL war, which has been dormant for a month and a half, has resumed and is about to usher in another bloody storm!
