Chapter seventy-eight of the inferior horse OMG follow-up)
On the afternoon of July 3, an airport in Shanghai.
omg All personnel participating in this intercontinental competition are preparing to fly to Province 4V to travel with the other three teams.
Several teams met at the airport. Many of the players were very familiar with each other and chatted with each other.
Lu Chen also saw many familiar faces, such as Qi Jiang.
The factory director found Brother Ma at this time and were chatting about something. The two of them were old acquaintances.
As we chatted, Brother Ma started laughing, and he continued to laugh.
Lu Chen was a little stunned when he saw this. Is this the old thief Sima?
At this time, Lu Chen was surrounded by many well-known players that he could only watch from the sidelines before.
However, Lu Chen had no intention of getting close to him, and others didn't know him, so there was no need.
Just sitting on an empty bench and playing with my phone quietly.
Suddenly, Lu Chen felt someone sitting next to him.
When I looked up, I saw it was We, the top orderer 957.
Brother Leg smiled and greeted Lu Chen.
"Hello, Lu Chen."
"Uh, hello, Brother Leg." 957 actually knew his real name, but after Lu Shen Shen thought for a moment, he couldn't remember what 957's real name was, so he had to call him "Brother Leg".
"I really didn't expect Brother Leg to know my real name. What's the matter?" Lu Chen was polite.
"I saw you sitting here alone, so I wanted to come over and have a chat with you. As for what you just said, in fact, I have known you since you were not a professional." 957 said.
Did you know me before I was a professional?
Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "Is that so? Is it because of Qinggang Ying?"
"That's right, regarding the bet between Qinggang Shadow and the Weapon Master, to be honest, I have been watching your live broadcasts to learn from Qinggang Shadow." 957 said with a smile.
"No, no, no, thank you very much, Brother Leg, don't make fun of me, I will take it seriously."
"I'm not joking. To be honest, your Qinggang Shadow is really powerful. Qinggang Shadow has some skill mechanisms. I only learned about it after listening to you."
At this time, the hero Qinggangying has only been online for half a year, and the development of the skill mechanism is indeed not complete.
But how could Lu Chen resist such bragging, so he had to blow it back and said: "Brother Leg, to be honest, among the top laners in LPL, you are my favorite, and I have watched all of WE's games.
"
"Don't lie to me. I actually watched a few of your games if I had time. You played 7 times and won 6 MVP awards. You're awesome!" said the leg brother.
Lu Chen felt that it would be embarrassing if we continued talking like this, so he changed the topic.
The experiences of the two are actually quite similar. They were both older when they started playing professionally. Plus, they share the top lane position, so they still have a lot to talk about.
The leg brother asked again: "How old are you this year?"
"It's over twenty." Lu Chen replied.
"It's the same as when I first started playing professionally. I was less than 21 at that time, but your career start is much higher than mine, so play hard!"
957 said, seeming to have some emotions.
Afterwards, the two added vx, and 957 got up and left.
...
lpl seemed to be unlucky when it came to the intercontinental competition this time. The flight was delayed as soon as they set off.
And it takes a long time.
With no choice but to transfer from hk, we arrived at hk at two o'clock in the morning on the 4th.
Fortunately, the players are generally night owls and can withstand it.
The rest conditions were not good, so Lu Chen simply browsed the forums to see what the masses thought of this intercontinental competition.
The Intercontinental Series is a new event officially added by Riot Games this year, referred to as the Intercontinental Series.
Teams from 13 competition regions around the world are divided into 5 different competitions, including the Asian Competition, the European and American Competition, the South American Competition, the Russian-Turkish Competition, and the Pacific Competition.
In addition to the lpl division, the lck division and the lms division will participate in the Asian competition, each sending the top four teams in the spring split to participate.
The participating teams in the lpl division are we, rng, edg, and omg.
The participating teams in the lck division are skt, kt, ssg (three stars), and mvp.
The participating teams in the provincial team LMS division are ahq, jt, m17, and fw (Flash Wolves).
The Asian Competition will bring some new changes in the competition system, and the concept of "competition zone" as a whole will be emphasized in the competition.
The final championship glory will also belong to the "division".
The entire event consists of three stages: group stage, semi-finals, and finals.
The group stage adopts a bo1 single round-robin format, with each division playing against other divisions once. The first place in the group stage will directly qualify for the finals.
The second and third ranked divisions will advance to the semi-finals.
When the schedule reaches the semi-finals, the game becomes interesting.
Because the semi-finals and finals will adopt the "bo5 relay match" format, the order of the battles will be determined by the coaching teams of both sides.
In the first four rounds of bo5, all teams from both sides need to appear.
Therefore, this competition format can be understood as a relay race consisting of 5 bo1s.
At this time, the global structure of League of Legends is still dominated by lck, and all competition regions have a consensus, that is:
It is possible for you to defeat the Korean team in bo1, but it is too difficult to defeat the Korean team in bo5.
In this kind of competition system that can be described as "Bo1 every game", defeating LCK seems to be much easier.
So, this intercontinental competition will inevitably involve an unavoidable topic.
Tian Ji horse racing!
...
Since it is Tian Ji horse racing, there must be distinction between high-grade horses, medium-grade horses and low-grade horses.
Lu Chen held his cell phone and looked at the netizens with interest, making suggestions and arguing endlessly about the order of the lpl's matches.
But no matter how they disagree and quarrel, most netizens maintain a common view:
omg I have to do this as a low-class horse!
In the finals, it would be great if OMG could face SKT or KT.
If omg can complete the exchange with either of these two teams, it will be considered as completing the task.
As for the provincial team?
Then it was automatically ignored by LPL fans, who all believed that the final must be LPL vs. LCK.
Lu Chen looked back and forth and found that most of them had this view, including some omg fans who may also feel the same way.
He is now omg's top laner. Anyone who is looked down upon like this will be unhappy.
Tian Ji horse racing?
omg is an inferior horse?
OMG's mission is to exchange money?
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows, completely disagreeing with these views, and could even be said to sneer at them.
Say defeat before the fight begins?
He, Lu Chen, comes here to play with only one goal, and that is to win, no matter who the opponent is.
In e-sports, no matter how many bells and whistles are used, hard power is not enough.
...
Due to the temporary transfer, basically no one had a good rest in the middle of the night.
It was not until 8 o'clock in the morning that everyone boarded the HK flight to Gao Xiong again.
On the morning of July 4th, the four teams from the LPL that competed in the Asian Competition finally set foot on the land of Province 4V.
The first Asian Competition will be held at the Gao Xiong Exhibition Hall in Gao Xiong City for four days.
This is not the first time that 4v Province has held an official Riot event.
Three years ago, the S4 Global Finals was held here, leaving behind the famous saying "If the stars never scatter, we will always win the championship."
