The list of Thorn Birds detonated the entire Internet with an extremely terrifying spread speed.
It is not only being discussed in major domestic forums, but also internationally.
The once unknown club has now become famous all at once, just because of the existence of that ID.
"Shine, what's this? Just shoot him and change the place? How can he be so brave?"
In South Korea, in the SKT E-Sports Club, Wolf couldn't help but muttered while browsing the forum. Then he turned to look at Bang, who had messy hair: "Junzhi, if it were you, would you dare to do this?"
Bang didn't say anything when he heard this, and just glanced at Wolf.
Of course he dares.
During the transfer period, North American teams sent him high-paying invitations, hoping that he could join the North American league as a foreign aid.
I was just rejected by bang.
In his opinion, playing in the North American league is easy, but losing for two consecutive years really made Bang feel unwilling.
Recently, he only sleeps for more than five hours a day and spends the rest of the time training. In addition, his condition in the second half of 2018 was actually pretty good. The club's management considered it repeatedly and did not choose to introduce other ADCs to replace Bang.
After Bang chose to stay, Wolf did not choose to leave, and planned to fight LOL for another year as brothers.
The SKT team also introduced two players through their efforts during this transfer period.
They are Khan in the top lane and Clid in the jungle position, which can be said to have eliminated the biggest shortcomings of the top and jungle positions last year.
"I think you should lose weight. Don't you feel that your mental state is not good recently?"
Bang changed the subject and said to Wolf.
"This... is a little bit, but I think losing weight may affect my condition."
Wolf took a sip of the drink, narrowed his eyes in contentment and said, "Junzhi, think about it, you were the world champion when you were fat. What have you been since you succeeded in losing weight?"
Bang was speechless for a moment.
At this moment, Clid next to him also said: "How far do you think this thorn bird can go?"
"Don't ask me, I don't know."
Khan simply avoided the topic.
To be fair, Khan doesn't really want to meet a team with Shine on his team.
This person made him very uncomfortable.
"Everyone just needs to train hard. If we meet again this year, we will win."
faker is the cornerstone of SKT's team. As soon as he said these words, everyone felt confident.
"Brother Xiang He is right. Think about it. There are six people in this Thorn Birds team. Except for shine and mlxg, the other four have never entered the World Championship. If others don't tell me, let's just talk about the mid laner position.
Xiye’s... strength is just that, if he really encounters us, he will be exploded by Brother Xianghe, right?"
Wolf said with a smile.
…
European Division.
G2 Esports Club.
"Such professional players are so charming."
Ap stretched his legs after seeing the LPL transfer information on the forum.
"So the reason why you transitioned to the ad position is to follow your idol?"
The caps who joined G2 glanced at him and said jokingly.
"Of course, the best way to follow an idol is to use the position he is good at to defeat him. Do you want to play in duo queue? I ad Yasuo Rogue 6."
caps:……
Twenty minutes later.
Including the few minutes of queuing and selecting players at the beginning, the game time at this time has just reached 14 minutes and 55 seconds.
Watching Ah P, Yasuo moved flexibly through the crowd of soldiers. When he finally died suddenly, Caps looked at him silently.
Ah P was a little embarrassed, but fortunately he was thick-skinned. Not only did he not feel guilty because of his grade of 0/8, but he calmly said: "Just say it's not silky!"
"Well, they are very smooth, so if we meet them this year, I will definitely ban Yasuo, I will definitely..."
…
Riot Headquarters.
“You guy who doesn’t keep his word!!!”
The ghost crab roared in the office.
he is very angry.
He felt he had been cheated.
However, it was not until he entrusted a friend to check the shareholder structure of the Thorn Birds Club that he realized that Li Luo had not deceived him.
Then……
He was even more angry.
This feeling of being pressed to the ground and being rubbed makes the ghost crab very unhappy.
But it's okay.
This was not the first time he had been deceived, so he was careful this time.
There aren't many macro adjustments made in the preseason version.
Let’s see what happens next!
Damn Shine, if you can still win the championship comfortably this year, my ghost crab’s name will be written backwards!
…
Ah sneeze!
In the Thorn Bird Club, Li Luo sneezed.
Rubbing his sore nose, Li Luo felt like he had a cold in the past two days.
The preseason version has been updated.
Li Luo immediately took Zhu Kai to study it in depth.
Although there is only one head coach in the Thorn Birds club, Zhu Kai, and Zhu Kai is actually a life coach to a large extent. With Li Luo, Zhu Kai only needs to ask Li Luo for his opinion when he is unsure about the BP.
That's fine, but Zhu Kai is not the kind of person who likes to show off, so he chooses to keep learning and making progress.
The two biggest changes in the preseason version are mainly reflected in the defensive tower and jungle area.
Others, such as the cornerstone runes, have only been slightly adjusted.
Li Luo is no stranger to the biggest change.
plating.
The changes in the plating version have a huge impact on the styles of many teams, especially the previous strong teams. The stronger the rhythm of the team, the greater the impact of the plating.
Moreover, in addition to the huge changes in the game brought about by plating, there is also a terrifying misunderstanding.
This misunderstanding was discovered by Li Luo and Zhu Kai recently when they communicated with the coaching staff of other teams.
Both IG's coach Mafa and EDG's coach Abramovich maintain an optimistic attitude towards the emergence of plating.
They believe that the gold coins given by the plating can help the lane with a strong opponent to take shape faster.
On the surface, this seems to be the case. Strong laning means more opportunities to point towers, more plating, and the shortest possible timeline to complete your equipment.
In the S8 season, as long as you are not playing a hero like Draven who comes with a bounty, it will take ten minutes to make the first piece of equipment. Even if Li Luo could finish the first piece of equipment ten minutes ago,
The situation is also very rare.
But it's different on S9.
The emergence of plating means that as long as the laning advantage is large enough, it is possible for a hero to make his first completed equipment within ten minutes, and the probability is much higher than before.
However, experience and the benefits of foresight told Li Luo that although the plating would give the hero advanced gold coins, the appearance of the plating would also greatly enhance the stability of the first defense tower.
Among the teams that Li Luo has stayed with before, whether it is IG or EDG, they are very good at gaining an advantage around a certain line in the early stage, then completing the blast of a tower in a very short time, and then quickly changing the line to seize the push as soon as possible.
Tower Rhythm.
As soon as the defensive tower is demolished, the team can quickly radiate their vision to the wild area, further squeezing the opponent's living space.
However, with today's plated version, it is more difficult to do this. At least each game has to be an average of three to five minutes later than before to achieve the same thing.
In other words, the pace will be forced to slow down.
And coatings are very confusing.
If you want to eat the plating, you must be greedy.
Being greedy means creating gank opportunities for the opposing jungler.
160 yuan per layer of coating is not a small amount.
In terms of wild areas, the first thing is to adjust the experience value of wild monsters.
The experience value of wild monsters in the early stage has not changed at all, but as time goes by, the experience value provided by wild monsters in the later stage will be reduced compared to the S8 season.
This has no impact on the Thorn Birds Club. Xiang Guo itself is not a jungler who focuses on late-stage development, and this change in the preseason also explains the direction of the jungle in the S9 season to some extent.
I'm afraid, I will be more inclined towards a rhythm type jungler.
In addition, the refresh time of wild area resources has been adjusted.
The first is the time when Xiaolong refreshes.
The refresh time of the first dragon has been increased from the previous 2 minutes and 30 seconds to 5 minutes.
This still has a certain impact on teams with strong bottom lane laning.
Previously in EDG, the EDG team would often take advantage of the bottom lane's laning advantage to steal the first dragon early.
There are many teams that have been beaten by EDG.
However, after the changes in the new version, it is no longer realistic to rely on the early lane excellence in the bottom lane to directly steal the dragon five minutes ago.
In addition, the attributes of the dragon have also changed to some extent.
The attributes of the three elemental dragons have not changed, but a single attribute has been enhanced.
For example, before this, the fire dragon's single attribute enhancement damage was 8%.
Now it's 10 percent.
But 24% of the three fire dragons remain unchanged.
The same goes for other attribute dragons.
And the refresh time of Xiaolong has been changed from the previous six minutes to five minutes.
The baron's refresh time has also been changed from 7 minutes to 6 minutes.
This means that dragon resources will be more important, and the team that can control the dragon in the early stage will be more likely to snowball.
On the surface, this seems to be somewhat beneficial to EDG, which won the championship last year, but in fact, it amplifies some of the advantages of the early lineup and compresses the system play style that EDG is best at.
It should be noted that when Li Luo falls to EDG, what EDG likes most is to let Li Luo take the big core guaranteed in the later stage.
Heroes like Kai'Sa and Xayah.
Every time Li Luo plays this kind of hero, apart from the small friction during the laning period, EDG's first wave of big rhythm will usually be launched ten minutes later, or even fifteen minutes later.
The final analysis is that heroes like Kai'Sa are not strong enough to take over the team without equipment support.
However, the change in the attributes of the dragon will greatly increase the desire of both parties for the first dragon, and the first dragon cannot be released as easily as usual.
In addition, the bounty system has also undergone certain changes.
The current bounty maximum has been increased to 700 yuan.
It means that if you kill a big head, you can get a bounty value of 1,000 yuan.
If the disadvantaged team can really find a chance to kill the opponent's fattest point once, the situation may change slightly because of this thousand yuan.
This is also a subtle attack on EDG, where Li Luo is located.
However, there is one thing to say. From these two points alone, the update of the pre-season version is actually relatively conservative.
What really attracted Li Luo was the transformation of a certain adc hero.
Ezreal's rework was actually completed during the World Championship.
But at that time, the World Championship version had been finalized, and Ezreal had not been implemented into the new version.
After the changes to the W skill, the new version of Ezreal has finally returned to the look that Li Luo was most familiar with before.
Taking into account the changes in Xiaolong and Ezreal's emphasis on team battles and winning prizes, there is a high probability that Ezreal will become a popular hero on the bottom lane ADC in the new season.
The problem with the version has been figured out for the time being, but the problem with the team...
Li Luo looked up at the ceiling and fell into deep thought.
In the past two days, the Thorn Birds have started to schedule training matches with people.
On the first day, the team the Thorn Birds played against was FPX.
Five games were scheduled, but FPX only played three games before the training match between the two sides was terminated.
The first training match indeed provided a considerable degree of self-confidence to the team's players.
However, the good times did not last long.
On the second and third days, after playing against the IG team and the EDG team respectively, the Thorn Birds have now fallen into an emo state.
Li Luo got up earlier today, so he was the only one in the training room.
Not long after, Zhu Kai also walked in. When he saw Li Luo, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stepped forward to say hello to Li Luo: "I knew you were already here."
"Um...has it been submitted?"
Li Luo responded feebly and then asked.
"submitted."
Zhu Kai nodded: "We will not participate in the German Cup this time in Xi'an. But what is more interesting is that when I went to submit the submission, I found that the person in charge of FPX was also there. They seemed to have withdrawn from this German Cup."
"Yeah?"
A strange look flashed across Li Luo's face when he heard this.
The Thorn Birds performed poorly in training matches against strong teams.
Although Li Luo had expected this, what Li Luo didn't expect was that the results of the training match were even worse than he imagined.
In addition to the brutal beating of FPX on the first day, the Thorn Birds had less than a 20% chance of winning against IG and EDG on the second and third days.
In other words, are the two teams IG and EDG more powerful?
The difference in Thorn Birds is not reflected in the laning phase.
In fact, everyone played pretty well during the laning phase.
But when it started to switch operations...the team started to have problems.
Of course, Li Luo had to admit that he had restrained himself and let out a little bit of water.
But Li Luo felt that even if he took the World Championship seriously, his chances of winning against these two teams would probably be less than 50%.
The reason why I kept it was because of EDG’s mistakes.
In the latter part of last year's summer split, EDG almost overturned.
The reason is that the whole team relies too much on Li Luo.
If Li Luo chose to play against FPX on the first day to help the team build initial confidence, then the second and third days were purely to let his teammates recognize him.
If Li Luo's performance is too outstanding, it is easy for his teammates to subconsciously form the inherent thought of "protecting him will win."
In this situation, once the opponent uses some targeted methods in the early stage to make Li Luo's performance less comfortable, his teammates will easily be led into the opponent's rhythm, and thus be led by the opponent.
This is not what Li Luo wants to see.
Xiye and Xiangguo are currently in the recovery period, and complete recovery will not happen overnight.
This is also the reason for giving up the German Cup. If the Thorn Birds choose to participate in the German Cup this time, it will inevitably attract a huge amount of attention, and the attention will bring huge pressure.
Once the Thorn Birds lose in the German Cup, a wave of trolls will sweep in like a violent storm.
Li Luo was not worried about this, but the newly formed Thorn Birds could not withstand such strong winds and waves.
Just like WEA when they first entered the LPL, Xiye, a high-spirited young genius, bumped into EDG when he entered the LPL for the first time. He was brutally beaten and did not recover for two or three years.
Reasonably avoiding unnecessary risks is very important for a new club.
What Li Luo has to do is to adjust the mentality of his teammates little by little, and then improve his teammates' status little by little through targeted training.
This may be a relatively lengthy process.
But Li Luo didn't care.
Because he knows that as long as his plan can be executed smoothly, the thorn bird will one day bloom its gorgeous feathers to the whole world.
And FPX…
Li Luo recalled the training match the day before yesterday, thoughtfully.
"I've been fooled, I've been fooled, have I been fooled?"
The boss of FPX was lying on his office chair at this time, looking at the ceiling blankly.
The results of these three days of training matches made him doubt his life a little.
The FPX boss is still very concerned about the newly formed team.
He really spent a lot of money.
Although sofm's net worth is not particularly high, it is not low either.
In this peak era of the LPL region's boom, it can be said that many players are priced at a premium in terms of the general market.
Sofm is so.
This is especially true for doinb.
The price of doinb is the most expensive among the team.
Although 957 is a veteran, FPX really spent a lot of money to buy him over. There is nothing he can do. There are already two foreign players in the team, so the top laner can only bring in local players.
When you introduce local players, you can't find the kind of unreliable raw melon and eggs.
Therefore, 957 has become the best choice in this environment.
Facts have proved that the 957 service in the past two days has indeed been pretty good.
The duo in the bottom lane didn't have many problems during the laning phase. Even when facing strong teams, they were at best a minor disadvantage.
But this midfielder...
The FPX boss rubbed his head, then stood up and walked towards the training room.
Before reaching the door of the training room, the FPX boss heard a familiar voice coming from inside.
"Oh my god! Can you please stop messing with me? Why do you have to do that F6? I can't get through it, brother!"
"I told you."
"I know you said it, but didn't I tell you too? Brother, how can I push him?"
"Why can't you push him?"
Two foreign aids who spoke excellent Chinese were communicating with each other. The speed of their speech resonated with the heartbeat of the FPX boss, and he felt that his own heartbeat began to accelerate.
"So, brother, can you obey the command? How can I play with you like this? Should I play or not? You can't let me choose Karma, right?"
"How will you know if you don't try?"
The boss of FPX stood in front of the door, feeling hopeless.
In the next training match, doinb took out Karma.
sofm took out a hand of poodles that were not included in the version.
Twenty minutes later.
"Hey! Oh shit! Ness, Saufen! Ness, Ness! I'll be your dog! Oh my god, why are you so fierce?"
Snap.
The boss of FPX turned around and returned to the office, clutching his heart.
It only took him a few days to figure out the new team under his command.
But it was precisely because of this that the boss of FPX became desperate.
There is no doubt about sofm's personal ability.
When doinb brought out that kind of hero with strong support ability, the rhythm of the entire FPX team was as continuous as a torrential river when it was able to help sofm in the jungle. It felt like everyone was being abused by anyone they beat.
But sofm's state is not stable at all. Sometimes he is like a god, and sometimes... he is just a ghost.
If the tactics were changed, the team would not be able to play at all. Everyone would play their own game.
He feels uncomfortable!
How can we play with such an unstable team? Are we going to embarrass ourselves?
The problems of the two teams are only clear to each other.
Anyway, he did not participate in the German Cup. After learning the news, the audience was disappointed and could only watch the games of other teams.
The discussion in the Tieba forum has never stopped.
Netizens all turned into tactical analysts, studying this team today and that team tomorrow. Some people summed it up in a serious way and then directly posted an analysis.
"The configuration of the Thorn Birds... to be honest, we have to wait until the LPL starts to know how well it can really play, but I still advise you here to question first, otherwise you may emo because it is lower than your expectations.
"
"As for FPX, to be honest, this team configuration is still okay. At least on the surface, there are no particularly obvious shortcomings. The upper limit is extremely high. Let's wait and see first."
"SDG... a new team with experience. You can refer to the past teams that came up from the Stimulus League. They were basically at the bottom."
"We won't talk about VG anymore, we will be the last to book."
"As for IG, they are eternal gods. I heard that they are still the main force in the German Cup. To be honest, the current IG is more popular in China than EDG in the past. I am not surprised whoever they win. It is true that they are the best players in the past.
My biggest debuff has been removed."
"RNG... there haven't been many adjustments in terms of personnel. AJ's ability is currently open to question. Anyway, as long as Uzi's condition is not a problem and the Tiger Emperor who will be very good in the spring, RNG's results will not be bad."
"EDG... I feel like they've been dealt a huge blow this time. In this age where gods coexist, they will probably fall into the ranks of a second-rate team."
"TOP...new team, please refer to SDG for details, experience baby."
…
As netizens watched, the German Cup kicked off.
All the major teams were quite impressive in their year-end appearances, but after all, some teams exceeded the audience's expectations.
First is BLG.
BLG, a team whose players are relatively unfamiliar to the audience, performed quite well in the German Cup.
In particular, the career experience of jungler Guohao has attracted countless netizens to talk about it.
In addition, the TOP team has undoubtedly become the most dazzling dark horse in the German Cup. They passed all the way and finally advanced to the finals.
Although they were crushed by the IG team with a score of 3-1 in the finals, they finally won a small victory from the IG team.
If you can win a victory, it is not considered a crushing victory.
In addition, EDG also played quite well, but they encountered IG in the semi-finals and lost 2-3, which was a pity.
But the performance of the EDG team has actually exceeded the expectations of many EDG fans.
Especially Lin Weixiang, although EDG's bottom lane no longer became the focus, it gave fans a very calm feeling. At least in the three losses, EDG's bottom lane was not a breakthrough.
As spectators, the Thorn Birds watched all the German Cup games silently in the base.
"What should I say? Is it better?"
Zhu Kai asked with a smile.
"What's good? The pressure is even greater."
Xiangguo sighed: "Why are all the newcomers so strong this year? It feels like our progress is a bit slow, and...Brother Luo, are you playing me?"
Aware of the gazes from all around, Li Luo looked confused: "What are you playing? I don't have one."
"Really do not have?"
Xiang Guo was a little suspicious.
Their condition has shown a slight improvement in recent training matches.
But there is still a slight gap between what Li Luo showed and what Xiang Guo knew.
"Of course it's true, more real than pearls."
"oh……"
Xiangguo believed it.
Liu Qingsong glanced at the fragrant pot, then chuckled like "ha", and then continued to look at his e-sports screen.
"Why is Mr. Tie laughing?"
Xiangguo keenly captured the changes in Liu Qingsong's expression.
"I suddenly remembered something happy."
Liu Qingsong remained calm and responded naturally.
Liu Qingsong, who sits next to him every day, naturally knows what is going on with Li Luo.
Moreover, Li Luo and Liu Qingsong were in the same dormitory, and the two usually exchanged some tactical issues.
Liu Qingsong knew Li Luo's intentions, and he also knew how terrifying Li Luo would be if he was really serious.
Just like in a training match before, when Li Luo went out to go online, he picked up the water on the table and took a sip. While drinking, a spider's web and a walking figure appeared in the grass beside the stone man.
Female tank.
Liu Qingsong watched helplessly as Li Luo used his terrifying and incredible reaction speed to control the wheel and at the same time clicked his E skill with the mouse.
The extreme E skill avoids the cobwebs at the extreme casting distance.
At the same time, Li Luo took advantage of the situation and used his ultimate move, using small moves to continuously twist off the female tank's E and R, forcing the female tank to flash over to Q. Finally, Liu Qingsong arrived in time and used a lantern to save Li Luo.
Such incredible reaction speed was achieved by Li Luo using one hand.
Does this really mean that Li Luo's reaction speed is no longer human?
It's actually not that exaggerated.
Liu Qingsong knew that the reason why Li Luo was able to react was just because he had expected it when he drank the water. Still choosing to drink the water was actually because he had the confidence to avoid it, or... in front of him.
one time?
Liu Qingsong admitted that he was indeed tricked by Li Luo.
Although the team's recent training match results are indeed not that ideal, they are at least moving in a good direction.
With Li Luo as a capable player, Liu Qingsong is very optimistic about the team's prospects.
"By the way, Xiangguo, don't forget what I told you before during the training match today. Xiye, you should be more talkative. Don't be silent and learn from Xuan Jun'er. Look at how cheerful he is."
"Don't worry, you won't forget it. If you forget, I'll treat you to a midnight snack tonight."
Xiangguo fiddled with his fingers and said helplessly.
"I know, but I'm old. Talking too much on the line will really distract me."
Xiye also said in a long tone beside him.
Li Luo raised his eyebrows: "Then you get down and Xiaodongbei comes up."
"Just kidding, just kidding, I'm always strong! Then, Xiao Yanzi, just sit down and become..."
Xiye rubbed his face and seemed to cheer up.
Xiao Dongbei on the other side didn't care and started playing ranked.
The recent training matches between him and Xiye were actually a 50-50 split.
This is much higher than what Xiao Dongbei expected before coming to the Thorn Birds.
The reason why he chose to come to Thorn Birds was that, on the one hand, Thorn Birds gave him a salary that was twice as high as that of BLG.
It's not that Thorn Bird's salary is too high, it's that BLG's salary is too low.
Based on Xiaodongbei's performance in the league, there is no way it can only have 8,000 yuan a month.
So even though Zuo Wu had told him that he would most likely be a substitute when he came, Xiao Dongbei still chose to come.
But the fact surprised Xiao Dongbei.
When he was in BLG, Xiao Dongbei had to make guest appearances on the road from time to time. Even so, he didn't often have the opportunity to play training matches.
He is not very good at talking and can't communicate with the management. It is understandable that he will sit on the bench until he wears it out.
As a professional player, Xiao Dongbei at least knows that only by playing in training matches can he have a chance to play.
Moreover, the players and even the management of the Thorn Birds are relatively kind and talk nicely, and there is no stickman who often makes wah-bah-ah-ah noises at that time.
This environment allowed Xiao Dongbei to dissipate some of the hostility accumulated during his time at BLG last year.
The atmosphere in the training room gradually became heated as the training match began.
"I'm going in this wave, brothers. If he's here, I'll just G."
"Then I'll tell you in advance that he will be there, so don't go."
Li Luo glanced at the small map and spoke without saying anything.
Hearing this, Xiang Guo controlled the blind monk to raise his hand and kick the sky sound wave into the grass.
Snapped!
The Spider Queen squatting there in the grass was directly illuminated by the sound wave.
"Okay, Lao Li."
Xiangguo chuckled.
"If you don't let me spend more energy studying the opponent's jungler position, I might be able to be more C. I don't ask you to change your playing style, as long as the frequency is not so high."
Li Luo rubbed his temples while returning to the city.
Incense pot is a double-edged sword.
Always.
Being brave and not afraid of death and never being afraid of starting a team are Xiangguo's greatest strengths, and they are also a level that most junglers will never be able to achieve.
But Xiang Guo’s monster-betting style of play will also make him the Thorn Birds’ biggest flaw.
Xiangguo can often catch his opponents off guard with his unusual decision-making, directly helping the team to establish an advantage.
However, after establishing an advantage, he may also cause a wave of decision-making mistakes, leading to a wave of losses with his teammates, giving away all the advantages.
Li Luo fixed this problem little by little.
It's just that this problem has a lot to do with Xiang Guo's character style. It's impossible to completely change it, it can only be optimized.
Liu Qingsong's roaming ability has not yet been fully utilized. Recently, when Liu Qingsong invited him to double queue with him, Li Luo has already refused, and asked Liu Qingsong to double queue with Xiangguo as much as possible to cultivate Nosuke's ability.
tacit agreement.
Li Luo has always believed that no matter what the shortcomings are, as long as they are used a little bit, they may become a means.
A player's style is directly proportional to the suitable hero.
Zhu Kai has recently calculated the hero pool of all Thorn Birds players, and with the cooperation of Li Luo, he has reorganized the lineup and formulated tactics bit by bit based on the version.
With the joint efforts of everyone, the Thorn Birds are rejuvenating little by little.
However, while the Thorn Birds are growing silently, Li Luo's fans on the Internet can no longer hold back.
"How about a live person coming out of the club? Where is Brother Luo?"
"It's okay if we don't play in the German Cup. Can't we show some photos of the players from time to time? Why do you feel like you are training in a dark room these days, shielded from the outside world?"
"Brothers, hold on tight. I hope that the Thorn Birds are practicing quietly and then make a splash in the spring competition."
"Don't be surprised. Take a look at this year's new teams. Each Mader team is better than the last one. As a fan of Brother Luo, I'm already starting to panic."
"As we all know, according to the law of strength among League of Legends professional players, no professional player can maintain his peak period for three years. There will be fluctuations to some extent. Judging from my previous performance, Brother Luo,
It seems that he has no room to rise. If he rises again, he will break the sky. Could it be said that... he is going to fall?"
"He is already a god in my heart. Don't let him go down. I really can't stand it..."
Inside the Thorn Bird Base.
Liu Qingsong stretched after finishing the day's training. When he saw Li Luo scrolling through Weibo's comments, he couldn't help but smile: "Brother Luo, don't you feel pressured? Although this group of people are unintentional, but one
All of them are stress monsters.”
Li Luo thought for a few seconds and then said slowly: "It's okay. Only when you are under pressure can you be motivated. In my impression, the number of times I have been trolled is quite small. After winning two championships, I do feel that I will be a little slack. If there are really trolls.
It’s actually pretty good if you spray it once.”
Liu Qingsong:......
Why did he somehow feel that what Li Luo said made sense?
"Okay, let's go to bed early. We have to go out tomorrow."
After Li Luo took a quick look, he closed the web page and stood up.
The entire Thorn Birds team will be in attendance tomorrow.
Because LPL officials will make an annual summary tomorrow and award various awards by the way.
"This kind of activity is the most boring, and it has nothing to do with me..."
Liu Qingsong was helpless: "It's better to play ranked in the base."
"Official regulations, there is nothing you can do, and you have to familiarize yourself with the venue in advance, right? You don't want to be nervous and cramped when you get to the podium, right?"
Li Luo said with a smile.
"How could I have that chance..."
Liu Qingsong said this, but his heart was obviously moved.
He is longing for it in his heart.
…
the next day.
Although the venue is not large, there are not many spectators.
There were still many spectators who did not have tickets, so they chose to wait outside the venue, hoping to have a chance to take photos with the contestants.
In the live broadcast room on the Internet, countless viewers are already looking forward to it.
"I saw Brother Luo... Damn it, Brother Luo is so handsome in a suit!"
"Liu Qingsong is handsome too, but he is a gamer? This is because of his good looks, right? Both of them can make their debut..."
"Although I don't know much about League of Legends, I know looks! From today on, I will be a die-hard fan of Brother Luo. What position does Brother Luo play? Confrontation lane, right?"
"I can already predict which of today's awards will be won by me, Brother Luo. I was voting on my scarf two days ago."
"Brothers, if you vote and I vote, Brother Luo will make his debut tomorrow!"
"It's not bad. It seems that my mental state is not bad. At least it means that my brother Luo is not doing illegal work."
"Brother Luo, just blink your eyes if you're kidnapped! You just gave the secret code and the brothers went straight to the club and stormed it!"
Amidst all kinds of barrages, Li Luo and his party also arrived at the seats belonging to the Thorn Birds team.
As the host came on stage, awards were announced one after another.
The first is naturally the most popular player of the year.
On the big screen, Li Luo was in operation and the edited highlights were switched back and forth.
Finally, a huge percentage number appeared on the screen.
Li Luo's voting rate reached a terrifying 58%.
This means that among all the players, in terms of popularity, Li Luo alone accounts for half of the LPL professional players!
Others want to divide up the 42%!
There is no doubt that Li Luo's votes have become overwhelming.
This is the power of two consecutive championships.
And this year's most popular player is well deserved.
In addition, the best adc of the year naturally fell on Li Luo.
When Li Luo walked towards the stage in a suit, the scene was instantly detonated.
"shine!shine!shine!"
The rising and falling sounds are getting louder and louder than the other.
It wasn't until Li Luo picked up the trophy and stood beside host Yu Shuang that the cheers gradually subsided.
Yu Shuang smiled, she had been a die-hard fan of Li Luo for a long time.
"First of all, congratulations to player Shine for winning the most popular player of the year and the best adc of the year. Of course, this is not the first time. You already received such an honor last year, but the turnout at that time was not so exaggerated.
."
"I believe that fans of player Shine and I are more concerned about one issue, and that is your personal and team's recent situation. After all, it has been a while since the end of the transfer period, but there has been no news..."
Looking at the darkness below, Li Luo pondered for a moment and said: "Both myself and the team have encountered some problems. It will take a certain amount of time to solve these problems. Of course, we still have to wait for the spring competition to see how we can play.
You will know when the time comes.”
Li Luo's answer was very serious and official.
He did not avoid the team's problems.
The more interviews like this are likely to arouse public opinion, the more Li Luo will choose to seize the opportunity and give his teammates and the entire team as much space as possible to gain public opinion.
It is undeniable that Li Luo's words did cause concern among fans.
After all, in the impression of fans, Li Luo almost never showed any lack of confidence in interviews.
"What am I talking about? I feel like this team can't go far. You see, Shine himself has no confidence."
"Why did you jump out when there was any disturbance? Yes, yes, yes, it's true that we can't go far, it's just the same as last year."
Similar doubts appear endlessly on major online forums.
There seemed to be so many negative comments overnight.
However, the confidence to win two consecutive championships lies there. Although there are many monsters and monsters, most fans are still willing to believe in Li Luo and his choice.
At the same time, they are also looking forward to the performance of the Thorn Birds on the playing field.
Amid such doubts, the 2019 LPL Spring Split also kicked off.
Come on, the first day of the update, try to stick with it longer!
