At the filming venue of the expedition ceremony, Ah Shui poked Bao Lan with her elbow and asked quietly.
Both he and Bao Lan were participating in the World Championship for the first time, so it was inevitable that they would be nervous.
Especially Ah Shui, who had just debuted and stepped on the highest stage that professional players dream of. The excitement and excitement could not be concealed.
"I'm nervous. Why aren't I nervous? And I didn't expect the management to take me there."
An excited smile appeared on Baolan's lips.
If the support position is the one IG needs the least substitute for, Chen Yu is a well-deserved core player in any team.
If Chen Yu is replaced, there will be no backbone, and the command will be chaotic.
According to common sense, even if IG needs a substitute, it will choose a player in another position instead of the support position.
But IG gave Baolan the only substitute position, which made Baolan feel flattered.
"Oh, I heard that Chen Yu told the management that he wanted to choose you."
Ah Shui spoke in a low voice.
He and Chen Yu live in the same room and know more information than the average team member.
For example, Baolan was brought to the World Championship by IG this time because Chen Yu proposed it to the management.
However, Chen Yu did not say the specific reason. Ah Shui guessed that it might be because Baolan trained with the players when Chen Yu was participating in the national team and worked hard and achieved great results, so Chen Yu decided to give him a chance to choose a skin.
"Really?"
The sapphire blue eyes lit up, and she looked at Chen Yu who was taking photos at the venue from a distance.
This guy of the same age who took over his starting support position as soon as he joined the team and became the absolute core of IG, really chose himself.
At this time, Chen Yu did not know the content of the discussion between the two, and was following the director's instructions to assume various postures that he was embarrassed to say.
However, Chen Yu's figure and appearance are very outstanding, and she wore makeup for the video shoot today.
She suddenly became the most handsome boy in the audience, and even the director couldn't help but want to take more shots of Chen Yu.
"It's good to be handsome. The director has been filming Chen Yu for half an hour, and he hasn't stopped yet. What career do you think he wants to pursue? He can become famous as a model, right?"
Uzi, who was watching from the edge of the venue, said sourly.
Since Chen Yu joined IG, leading to the rise of IG, his team RNG has won the league runner-up three times.
If it weren't for Chen Yu, perhaps these three league championships would have been RNG.
How much honor does Uzi lose for this?
Especially seeing Chen Yu's figure and appearance is what Uzi envies the most.
"I found that you have had a strong opinion of Chen Yu since you went to the national team to partner with him. Didn't you say that he was a good brother when you went there?"
Xiao Ming on the side joked.
Every year, the LPL will film an expedition ceremony to build momentum.
At least in the eyes of the audience, it is the emphasis on the World Championship.
As the defending champion of the S7 World Championship and this year's LPL Summer Championship champion, IG naturally deserves the C position.
No one can be absent.
Xiao Ming and others were naturally present.
"It's fun, but he was fucked badly by Chen Yu!"
Xiang Guo interrupted after hearing this.
"He lived in the same room with Chen Yu. Chen Yu didn't allow him to eat snacks, especially sweet ones. Chen Yu threw them all away for him, saying it was for his own good. He was so angry that Uzi lost weight."
Emperor Rang also agreed.
"I have indeed lost some weight, and holding her is not as comfortable as before."
Xiao Ming hugged Uzi's waist from behind and rested his chin on Uzi's broad shoulders, full of affection.
"He said eating too much would cause diabetes, and he wouldn't let me eat it unless I found a girlfriend with hypoglycemia."
Uzi frowned, and his whole body felt bad.
He wasn't resentful because Chen Yu wouldn't let him eat snacks. After all, Chen Yu's original intention was for his own good.
It was just Chen Yu's words that made him feel uncomfortable.
What does having a girlfriend with hypoglycemia have to do with diabetes?
"You really need to pay attention. The recent physical examination at the club showed that your blood sugar is higher than that of ordinary people! Don't really have something wrong with your body by then."
Xiao Ming comforted in a low voice.
As a good gay friend who sleeps on the same bed, he is still very worried about Uzi's health.
"I know."
Uzi withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to the EDG people not far away.
I found that the faces of everyone in EDG were not pretty, and everyone looked solemn.
Obviously it's because the draw luck is not very good, and the three LPL teams have the greatest pressure to advance.
"Alas, our draw is still good. If nothing else, the top eight are at least stable. Unfortunately for the factory director, EDG is considered a group of death! Moreover, EDG's winning rate against strong foreign teams is not high. If you are not careful,
Maybe we won’t even make it to the group stage.”
Xiangguo sighed.
"This old boy poached our people when he was in the national team, he deserves it!"
Uzi curled his lips and cursed with a smile.
The eyes of everyone in RNG immediately fell on Emperor Rang.
When Uzi came back, he told them that the factory director secretly poached and recruited Emperor Rang.
"Look at what I'm doing, I didn't agree! And after being busted by Uzi and Chen Yu, the factory director went to sleep with Brother Holy Gun every night. It is estimated that EDG will poach Brother Holy Gun next season."
Rang Di sighed.
He has no plans to go to EDG, but if the factory director really succeeds in recruiting Holy Spear Brother, EDG will complete the weakest top lane, and I am afraid they will become the ruler of LPL again.
Even IG may not be able to suppress them.
Anyone who has watched the Asian Games knows that with sufficient tactical status, Brother Shengqiang's dominance is almost as good as that of Lao Sha.
"It's really something to be wary of."
Everyone was convinced, and all their eyes fell on the factory director.
He was soon discovered by the keen-minded factory director.
Seeing everyone in RNG looking at him with strange looks, he was not angry. Instead, he walked over with a smile and said hello: "What should I say? I don't look handsome with makeup on?"
"It would be even more cool if you could use the Blind Sin 7-word roundhouse kick to kick Deft back in the match against KT."
Xiangguo said with a smile.
"Not to mention the group stage, we are still good friends!"
The director's face suddenly darkened.
RNG people can stand and talk without back pain.
If their EDG can be assigned to Group D, they don't have to worry about qualifying.
After a pause, the factory director said: "Today is different from the past, and we EDG are not easy to bully! Abramovich studied a lot of tactics with Chen Yu in the national team, and there is no problem in qualifying for the group. What if we are unlucky?
If there is a civil war, you will suffer."
"It's so funny. Chen Yu and I live in the same room. Do you think I didn't get any information here? This time we are going to join IG in the finals!"
Uzi sneered without showing any signs of weakness.
Everyone else in RNG is also full of confidence.
Among the national team members, RNG has three members, and EDG has only two including the coach.
Coupled with the results of the summer split, RNG is the second seed and EDG is only the third seed.
How could RNG be afraid of EDG.
"Haha, let's see the real chapter on the field."
The factory director looked around and found that no teammates were following him, so his power was weak, so he left with a harsh word.
At the same time, the IG people were also paying attention to the situation here. They found that the conversation between the factory director and the RNG people seemed to have ended on bad terms, and they couldn't help but joke: "The factory director is very unlucky. He only has a few days left in his career.
In such a death group, EDG will probably be ridiculed by RNG."
When the situation of all the groups came out, everyone had the same thought as the audience - EDG was unlucky, and RNG was lucky.
As for themselves, they have no worries at all.
With the current mentality of IG players, no matter who the opponent is, they have absolute confidence to win.
"Actually, it's quite good. We and EDG are both in the same league, so we can have a lot more to watch in the group stage."
Coach Mafa smiled and said softly.
SKT's top laner Duke was a member of IG last season. SKT introduced him to compete with offensive top laners such as Rao Sha.
Even though in the eyes of most people, IG is now clearly stronger than SKT, from the perspective of the top lane, the audience is still looking forward to the collision between the strongest spear and the strongest shield in the official game.
KT's bottom lane deft is an old member of EDG. After the end of S4 that year, all ten members of Samsung joined LPL. Deft joined EDG together with Fat General and helped EDG win multiple league championships. It can be said that he dominated
An era.
When the Fat General was seriously injured and unable to play, deft became EDG's core point and biggest leg.
With deft leaving EDG and returning to the LCK last year, EDG became undervalued and missed the World Championship for the first time since the team was founded.
Although there is some metaphysics involved in it, the audience knows the importance of deft to EDG.
After deft returned to the LCK, they formed KT Galaxy, known as the strongest team in the LCK. This time they meet EDG in the group stage, it will inevitably be a confrontation worthy of attention.
Chen Yu is still looking forward to this.
You must know that the current factory director is no longer the original factory director, and the current EDG is definitely not the EDG of the past.
Because of IG's subtle influence, most LPL teams have undergone earth-shaking changes.
Especially EDG, the environment has injected a bit of fierceness that was lacking in the past.
"My senior brother is also said to be very strong. I wonder if Xiao Zhao can withstand it. KT and TL are two strong teams with AD as the core of the team."
Ah Shui frowned, a little worried about himself, a fellow contestant.
EDG is not like IG in that they can switch back and forth between playing Tool Man or Kairi in the bottom lane.
EDG will only let the bottom lane play Kyrie's position because they have never had a Kyrie-type top laner.
So Xiao Zhao became the focus of everyone's attention.
If you play well, you will be boasted as the future AD hope of LPL, but if you play poorly, it will be EDG's biggest weakness.
"I hope they can gain some momentum and qualify first in the group, otherwise it will be boring to have another civil war."
Prince Ning curled his lips and said.
"Ah Yigu, I'm going to play Duke. I'm so excited."
Lao Sha didn't care about EDG. He always had an expectant smile on his face and was very interested in playing against Duke again.
If Chen Yu hadn't straightened him up with one hand, he might still be suppressed by Duke and could only appear in rotation.
No matter in the heart of Resha or in the eyes of the audience outside the court, Resha is not completely capable of surpassing Duke and becoming the starter.
But IG's tactical system needs such an offensive arrow on the road, and he is more suitable than Duke.
"I haven't been home for a long time, when will we set off?"
The focus of broiler chickens is not on the opponent, but on the place of competition.
This global finals is hosted by South Korea, which is a good opportunity for these Korean players to return to their hometown.
Although they were criticized by the people for their campaign for the LPL, they still had a lot of support from their fans.
Being able to hear cheers in the familiar language of their hometown is also a different experience for them.
In fact, after the Korean team's disastrous defeat in the Asian Games, the domestic attitude toward their Korean players in the LPL was one of love and hate.
I not only hope that they can go out for the country and replace the unsatisfactory things of the national team, but also hate that they have helped the LPL improve its overall strength and become the LCK's biggest opponent.
Feelings are extremely complex.
"Okay, who's going next?"
At this moment, Chen Yu finally ended the shooting and returned to the IG crowd to ask.
As the No. 1 seed of the LPL, IG is a well-deserved protagonist, and its priority is naturally the highest.
After they finish shooting, it will be RNG and EDG's turn.
"Ah Shui, let's go ahead and sort by appearance."
Coach Mafa said with a smile.
"If it's about appearance, I think I can go first."
Prince Ning raised his head and chest.
"go away."
Everyone rolled their eyes.
Although Ning Wang has taken good care of his skin care recently, the bumps on his face have reduced a lot, his skin has gradually become fairer, and his appearance has indeed improved a lot.
But compared with players such as Chen Yu and Ah Shui who are recognized as good-looking players, they are still far from impressive.
"Give me a pair of shoes. I admit that you are more handsome than me."
Ah Shui looked at King Ning with a smile.
He is the one who has the least baggage of being an idol, and does not care about face when it comes to making money.
"Then it would be better if you were more handsome."
Prince Ning immediately refused.
Doesn't asking for his shoes mean asking for his life?
Unless he is given the opportunity to play Kerry as a jungler on the court, there is no way he will give up his love.
But if BP's affairs are not owned by Ah Shui Guan, Prince Ning will not give him face.
As a result, everyone from IG appeared one after another.
Under the direction of the director, various poses were put on and recorded.
Next came everyone from RNG and everyone from EDG.
After everyone's close-up poses are recorded one by one, there will be an interactive scene of the three teams taking the field.
Against the dark background, the huge championship trophy glowed faintly.
The light illuminates a nearby area.
You can vaguely see a group of figures hiding in the darkness in four directions, competing for the trophy.
Soon, the light became stronger, but it only shined in one direction.
In the east, from a camp of more than ten people, three leaders slowly walked out.
Their faces gradually became clearer in the darkness - Chen Yu, Wu Zi, the factory director!
The three soul players from their respective teams stretched out their hands and leaned forward, trying to grab the trophy.
And behind them, the players belonging to their respective teams also rushed forward to compete.
The light increased again, and the camera illuminated the faces of every player behind it.
