RNG's defeat made the atmosphere in the circle dull, and even the training room of the IG team was a little depressed.
There is no other reason, IG...has become the only one.
Only three of the top four teams remain. Invictus Gaming is currently the only spark in the LPL and is playing at home. You can imagine the psychological pressure on the players at this time.
Even the very nervous Prince Ning could not ignore this pressure.
"Try not to go to forums or anything like that, as it will add stress to yourself."
Li Luo let out a long breath, calmed down his mind as much as possible, and then spoke slowly.
"Well, let's all train, Li Luo, you come with me."
Mafa stood up and spoke to everyone in the training room and then looked at Li Luo.
That night, everyone on IG went to bed early.
Li Luo was also kicked back by mafa around eleven o'clock.
In the huge training room, only Mafa was still conducting tactical simulations.
…
After Li Luo returned to the room, he lay down on the bed and tossed and turned unable to sleep.
From the moment he came on the field to now, this is the first time Li Luo has felt such huge on-field pressure. SG is different from the teams that IG has collided with before.
Even though Li Luo had a lot of information about the SSG team before his rebirth, he was not 100% sure of winning them.
Because in a sense, SSG's tactics overlap with IG's tactics.
Leader An is the player who likes to play Prince and Zac the most in this World Championship, besides King Ning.
His pig girl also fits the current version perfectly.
And SSG is not the kind of team that particularly likes fighting. What they are good at is extreme operation.
In Li Luo's memory, among the three waves of 5 that SSG played, two were 3-0 and one was 3-1.
The only game the WE team lost was because SSG released Xia Luo and brought out cannons and gems to collide with them.
However, due to a huge mistake in the level 1 team's ambush, SSG was given the upper hand by WE. In the early stage, brother-in-law Xia got a kill first and then the fight went smoothly in the bottom lane.
After losing the first game, SSG showed their fangs.
The strength of uvee, coupled with the sophistication of leader An, and the Varus obtained by Ruler one after another, gave SSG a completely different feel from other teams in the World Championship.
Although they have discussed it with mafa countless times, IG will have insufficient ban positions for the first time when facing SSG.
Regardless of the blue side or the red side, there are too many points that IG needs to pay attention to.
In the battle against C9, IG took out Xia Luo, who had been hiding for a long time, for the first time. In the final analysis, it had only one purpose.
That is to send a signal to SSG. When SG knows that IG will choose Xia Luo, it will only take two options.
Or, target one of them, so that the pressure on IG on the bp end will be smaller.
Or, SSG gets it himself.
As the owner of the champion skin before Li Luo's rebirth, Emperor Chi was naturally very high in Xia.
In Li Luo's opinion, SSG will most likely choose the latter.
If they choose the latter, then Li Luo has his own way to deal with it.
Of course, this does not rule out another possibility, that is, SSG will choose the same operation as when they played WE before the rebirth, and release Xia Luo.
Li Luo... I hope they will do this.
…
Ding dong.
The prompt sounds.
Li Luo's thoughts were interrupted. He picked up his phone and took a look.
It was a message from Li Hong.
"Xiaoluo, come on tomorrow, I'll pay attention to the whole process."
After seeing this message, Li Luo smiled and typed quickly in response: "You are still paying attention to the whole process even though the time difference is so unfriendly. You are worthy of being my brother."
Li Hong made a dog-headed expression and then did not respond.
After putting down his phone, Li Luo lay on the bed. With this message from Li Hong, Li Luo felt a little lighter for some reason.
"there is always a solution to a problem."
Had a deep sleep.
When Li Luo woke up the next morning, he felt a slight headache.
He climbed up from the bed and came to the bedside.
There was a hazy drizzle in the gloomy sky.
"No wonder."
Li Luo rubbed his head. Sleeping on cloudy and rainy days is the most comfortable, but it is often easy to oversleep. Li Luo would have a slight headache every time he overslept. This headache would not last long, and he would feel sober when he woke up.
Much better.
Su Xiaoluo hasn't drank recently.
As a manager, he can still prioritize.
At this juncture, what he has to do is to ensure the logistics of the whole team.
Breakfast has been prepared in advance, and there is a microwave in the base. Even if it is cold when the players get up, they can eat it first.
Li Luo felt much better after drinking a cup of hot milk. When he came to the training room, all the players had already arrived. Calculated, this was one of the few times when Li Luo came later than others.
"Did you sleep well last night?"
Li Luo threw the paper cup into the trash can and asked.
"It's not bad. When I lay down, I thought I might not be able to sleep. Obviously, I thought too much."
Prince Ning stretched himself and said with a smile.
"I'm fine too."
Baolan nodded.
He actually had a little insomnia last night.
When he couldn't sleep, Baolan used his mobile phone to look through the highlights of the IG Summer Season bot lane confrontation made by fans. Unknowingly, his tense nerves relaxed a little, and he fell asleep quickly after the sleepiness hit him.
"Old Song, your eyes are a little red."
Li Luo noticed Rookie. Rookie's mental state seemed to be poor. Theshy had been sitting next to Rookie and talking to Rookie. He seemed to be in good spirits. Obviously, Theshy's mentality was not affected in any way.
Rookie didn't shy away from Li Luo's words. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's true that I didn't sleep well, but it doesn't matter. It won't affect my state. I'll top it with coffee today."
Li Luo nodded and said nothing more.
It's normal for players to have insomnia before a game.
However, everyone usually stays up late. Even if they suffer from insomnia, the players each have their own methods to adjust their state.
And sometimes insomnia is not a bad thing. For a small number of players, as long as they withstand the sleepiest period after insomnia, their brains will be in an excellent state like a flashback.
In addition, Rookie can also rest on the way to the venue. Even if he can only rest for a while, it will greatly adjust his spirit.
Everyone on IG started warming up before the game.
Li Luo played a custom game and then played a rank game to get a feel for today's status.
not bad.
At noon.
Everyone in IG got on the base bus and drove slowly towards the venue.
The rain hasn't stopped yet.
And there is a faint trend of going down.
But this can't stop the players' enthusiasm for watching the game.
As he approached the venue, Li Luo saw a long line of people already lining up on the street.
When these fans saw the bus with IGlogo printed on it, they immediately waved and shouted.
It's just that the sound was mostly washed away by the rain, but the other IG players could tell from their mouth patterns that they were cheering for themselves.
After arriving at the venue, everyone on IG met a group of LPL commentators at the entrance.
There are three people responsible for commentating today's game.
doll, miller, and pdd.
After seeing the IG crowd, Wawa pulled out a telescopic flag from behind like a magic trick.
He opened the flag and it was an IG team flag.
"Miller and I will be in the commentary box to cheer you on today, just go for it!"
The doll patted his chest and said.
Miller smiled and said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If our LPL No. 1 seed beats their LCK No. 3 seed, that's not...hehe, right?"
pdd is different from the two.
He walked directly in front of the crowd, looking a little serious.
He seemed to take a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Brothers, please!"

I've been working too hard on myself recently, and almost had a nervous breakdown in the afternoon. Fortunately, I managed to get through it. This chapter is short, and I still have it today, so that chapter will be very long.
