Gouzi won the championship, breaking his own curse of not being crowned.
At the same time, the outside world’s pursuit of humility has become increasingly wild.
The super carry top laner in the three games of the finals is something that no team today has.
The crowning of soloKing also marks that humility, which has won a Grand Slam, is comparable to Feike in terms of honors. The only difference is the honor of the S series.
Fans are not sure whether Humility can achieve greater success again, but the World Championship is almost certain.
The winter window period has just begun. Facing a pink and tender dog-headed Qin, those capitals that have just entered e-sports are like sharks smelling the smell of blood. Various offers are flying to Ed Zhu's mailbox like snowflakes.
These are quite moral, and they even contacted Qin Yu in the name of weird endorsements.
Some of the numbers are so exaggerated that Ed Zhu's eyelids twitched wildly when he saw them, let alone Qin Yu, a young man of eighteen.
If Abu hadn't kept reminding the other party that the contract had been signed, Ed Zhu might not have been able to sleep well in Shanghai.
"Damn it, a bunch of rotten cabbage will be greedy for my little fragrant pig!"
"Haha, boss, what you should be thinking about is how you should keep Xiao Qin next year if he continues to behave like this."
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid..."
Ed Zhu looked into the distance. Behind him was a huge cabinet with a transparent window. The large and small trophies almost filled the space. He specially asked someone to open up a separate space for the 2017 S Games. The championship trophy was placed in the first position, and looking back, there were second and third ones... The early morning sunlight shone from the window sill to the desk, and three white contracts were placed at the front.
…
Riot Games did not relax because of the end of the event. On the contrary, various operating departments took quick action, reforming the event into a union, increasing the number of entries in each major competition area, etc.
The first thing that makes players happy is the entry of capital. From traditional basketball giants to the involvement of e-commerce and automobile companies, the trend of alliances has set off a global pursuit of e-sports, and the treatment of star players is even more visible to the naked eye. The old players lamented deeply that the land was rising, and the hard days of eating instant noodles and living in basements to play games were finally over.
There are advantages and disadvantages. After the elimination of the promotion and relegation mechanism for home and away games and alliances, capital investment does not have to worry about your money being wasted in a short period of time. Without the worries of results, clubs that cannot chase big-name players will naturally focus on newcomers.
Not to mention, Humility himself is a cute new player.
In 2018, the LPL finally threw its own depth bomb.
The leader is naturally the EDG club.
Ed Zhu, who has his own Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, does not give other bad cabbage more opportunities to hook up with his own Xiao Xiang Zhu. Whether the same EDGhumility is stable is also the key to whether most players can consider EDG next season.
(Weibo) EDG official: "First of all, I would like to thank player zet for his hard work in the team over the past year. EDG will always be your home. Go home often and have a better future when you return to Korea!"
"EDGClearlove 7! Thank you for your persistence over the years. Looking back many years later, when the goal is accomplished, you are no longer a teenager. Happy retirement! Also welcome to coach: Clearlove's link."
"EDG player scout has had many negotiations with the club, and we respect the player's wishes even if a contract renewal agreement cannot be reached."
E-Sports Express: "EDG has had major scandals one after another, with the mid laner leaving, AD announcing his return to China, jungler Mingkai retiring, and the three of them officially taking off their EDG jerseys. What kind of news will be coming from EDG next?"
…
Explosion Explosion!
Tieba, Weibo, small websites, wherever there is an e-sports section, all have exploded.
Something big has happened to the LPL's first championship team and the pig-raising professional that has dominated the LPL for many years.
Just when some belated players saw the hotly searched words, EDG fans were dumbfounded.
"????"
"The factory has been decommissioned?"
"Damn it, even though I've been complaining about your age, slow reaction, and cheating in the jungle, haven't you won the championship now? Don't fight for another year, and another year."
"Brothers, please read the EDG official blog, something big has happened."
"Any news about Noutou Qin?"
"No, that's almost it."
No one expected that EDG would release the most exaggerated news at the end of 2017 during the winter window when they were used to holding their breath for competitions.
Double C left the team, and the soul man Zhuge Mingkai retired.
Going crazy!
"Is this a case of winning the championship and losing the family?"
Some emotionally broken players held up their mobile phones and asked questions about their souls. After other teams won the championship, they were thinking about how to stabilize the team and strengthen it to continue sprinting for the championship next year. Even if it failed, they still had to maintain stability.
Now you're telling me that only top laner and support are left?
By the way, where’s the information about top laner Qin Tou and his support girl?
EDG seemed to know what the players were expecting, and after being stuck on the news, it delayed releasing the rest of the news, which made countless players feel itchy.
All of a sudden, all kinds of gossip was flying all over the place.
The major e-sports media reported wildly, and news about other teams announcing player changes was completely suppressed.
No matter what, Mingkai is still one of the two most popular men in the LPL. No, it should be said that they are three pillars now.
"Shocked! The first LPL championship team fell apart."
"The middle and lower double Cs have left the team, and the soul of the core jungle team has retired. Can Ed Zhu really retain humility?"
"In the world of e-sports, there is a fear that some teams will receive the contract of Goto Qin in the first year of e-sports."
"LCK's carnival? Grand Slam is just a flash in the pan?"
As time goes by, EDG's big melon continues to ferment, and interested people also get "inside information."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zet was sent out by Humility on his own initiative. After all, the Fried Chicken Team gave Zet unbelievable treatment, and he also had the opportunity to enter the university. After knowing this, fans just
Can you wish me my best wishes? E-sports players can improve themselves after making money, which is what many people dream of.
The female fans were even more in tears. Brother Dog really made me cry to death.
How uncomfortable it must be to send away AD, your supporter, with your own hands, as if you were hugging a dog brother.
For Mingkai, unlike those ordinary fans, the old fans silently told him that a veteran who has struggled for many years has won the championship, which is regarded as a complete e-sports life. There is nothing wrong with retiring, and the factory has not completely left, right? S8 is based on the coach's performance
Identity and everyone continue to struggle.
Long-time fans commented in a long post: "This is considered an honorable retirement from the factory. I have won the championship and I am still old after all. Although it is not a bad idea to have the humility in the team to play for another year, it can be seen that the final swan song of this year has been used up.
Ming Kai’s energy is gone. Everyone has to think about the fact that all the players in the same period as the factory have basically retired. Big Brother has transformed into a coach. I think S8 and Goutou Qin Shuangjian may not have great achievements."
[I’m just worried about whether Ai Loli can take the lead. I think it’s impossible for Riot to not target EDG in S8. Can the mindless tactic of protecting top players be successful in the second year? There seems to be a new jungler, what’s his name?
?]
[@ Bath Jiang, the factory won the championship and left in style, Gouzi, don’t hesitate! 】
[Where is Gotou Qin? EDG hasn’t announced the news about Gotou Qin’s contract extension yet? You can’t tell me that Gotou Qin’s FMVP was snatched away midway, right?]
Other news is also sharing the huge traffic of EDG. For example, IM, which once completed three consecutive jumps in S6, regrettably withdrew from the stage and was acquired by Xiaopozhan and renamed BLG.
The DNA of Lingshi Road was renamed into the TOP team that everyone is familiar with in later generations, and RW and Little Phoenix FPX, which were briefly called Rogue Team by later generations of players, joined the LPL.
Some people are waiting for news about EDGhumility, but more viewers are waiting for news about EDGhumility.
…
Shanghai Airport.
The wind in the winter night was a bit biting and unbearable. Several young people in down jackets covered their hands, exhaling from time to time and looking at the people in front of them.
"Hae Sungmin, don't forget me when you go back. There are assistants every year. I am the only champion assistant."
"Ai Gu, Meiquan obviously likes to abandon me and go on the road."
Despite bickering, Zet still gave Meikou a deep hug. From the outside, he did like to direct himself as output. But from another perspective, Meikou had never disliked him.
Everyone is here on today's flight.
Mingkai, Abu, Ai Luoli and——
"Brother Dog, S8 needs to work harder."
"Yes, BBQ needs your reputation as a champion, and you must also use your own strengths. I don't have the resources to give you in Korea."
"Hehe, after a year, I have mastered the unique skill of Ice Verus. Don't worry, carry can't say that I can still hold it steady."
Zet's eyes are slightly red.
I still have the image in my mind of Brother Gou persuading me some time ago. The laning intensity in the LCK division is far inferior to that of the LPL. You can currently play in BBQ without any problem. Their conditions may not allow you to win the championship in S8, but for you, it is the best.
A good future.
"The future?"
As the boarding reminder appeared, Zet reluctantly said goodbye to everyone.
In just one year, my mood has gone from hell to heaven. Although there are too many hardships along the way, how many people can't get it?
Qin Yu watched Zet's back disappear at the door of the plane, and suddenly felt a touch of sadness in his heart.
Without him, Zet might have completely disappeared from the players' horizons after this year, and Mingkai would have sadly retired with regret.
Is this considered life-changing history?
A picture quietly appeared on the Weibo account of @我不吃 spinach:
"There will be countless passers-by on the road of life. In 2017, I started my own story with EDG and a group of companions who pursue e-sports dreams. Things have changed in 2018, but the goal is always the same."
"S8 - the direction remains the same!"
"Finally, I wish my brothers a safe journey!"
And in the early hours of that night, the depth charge that Ed Zhu had hidden for a whole year finally exploded.
EDG official blog: "S8 is setting sail again. First of all, I would like to congratulate top laner Humility on reaching an agreement with the club to successfully renew the contract. In the next year, we will form a team with our FMVP as the core. Fans please look forward to it."
"Assist meiko to complete the contract renewal, Ye Tian! You can rest assured that you will be on your way to 2018..."
"New people have joined the team. In 2018, we welcomed three new people. Thank you for their trust. Although the story of the All-Stars is incomplete, I believe that more beautiful flowers will bloom in S8."
…
Countless people are destined to be unable to sleep this night.
