After the annual awards are over, the countdown to the 2017 new season has begun. Thanks to the S6 championship, other brothers in the club have also received honors, large and small.
The strongest top laner in the LPL in 2016 was naturally awarded to Mr. WE957, the current number one top laner in the world.
957, who originally had a shortage of domestic top laners, had a lot of clubs chasing him with his performance in the World Championship.
Who would have thought that an older veteran could explode with such energy at the end of his career.
“Is wolfberry nourishing red date tea really useful?”
Many club owners who were deceived by Lin Huan are already considering imitating Lin Huan and giving their older players health supplements such as wolfberry and red dates.
It is not yet known whether it can improve the competitive status of players, but if you eat too much wolfberry and red dates and there is a hole in the ceiling the next day, a similar situation will definitely happen.
Unfortunately, Mr. Kang, the best jungler, lost to this year's Mingkai by one vote. After being incited by Lin Huan's little butterfly in the World Championship, Mingkai's jungle performance throughout the year was indeed better than that of Kangdi, but he won
Even receiving the Best Improvement Award is not a failure.
I originally thought that the best mid laner would be awarded to Ji Zhenzhen, but unexpectedly, it was awarded to Xiye in the end.
The organizers considered it over and over again. Last year, awarding the jungler award to Mingkai, who went to the World Championship, was more or less valid. The mid laner, who had not gone to a single World Championship, stole the best award from Ren Xiye, who defeated Faker and won the S6 World Championship.
No matter what the mid laner does, it doesn't make sense.
…
There are many new faces in the LPL in 2017.
For example, NB, or Avengers QG led by Monkey, who came back from LPSL.
The first game of the spring season will be held on January 19th, which means there are only more than thirty days left for the major clubs to adjust.
VG successfully obtained the bottom lane duo from WE, and Boss Ding transformed into a sunny and cheerful boy.
They sent away the Korean Double C, and even had to activate the newcomer Zet in the bottom lane, which caused EDG to fall into a cold winter.
RNG, which had to send away top laners Looper and Mata as a sibling, welcomed its new top laner Letme and the new dog concubine Ming.
The draw for the spring season will also be held soon at the Wuhan Sports Center.
This year’s new competition format adopts a group confrontation cycle model of two groups A and B, and then a total of 96 BO3 games will be played within a few months.
It can be regarded as a complete abandonment of the once stupid BO2 competition system. The flat competition system in which there are still points for a draw has been completely swept into the garbage heap of history.
In terms of grouping, the No. 1 seed pool is composed of WE and EDG in terms of points.
The second seed pool is IM, RNG, VG, and IG, the old enemies of the bubble competition.
The draw ended quickly, and fans only paid attention to their WE being placed in Group A. The members of Group A are: Snake Team, IM, OMG, LGD and IG.
I have to say that the official is good at playing. When fans saw the IM, it was because enemies were extremely jealous when they met. Before the fight even started, a group of people started greeting each other online.
The LPL division obviously doesn't get as much attention as the LCK.
It’s not a problem of insufficient traffic, the key is that this year’s two major galactic battleships in the LCK are really eye-catching.
SKT!KT!
The formation of the two galactic battleships was nicknamed by players as the Demonic Dragon Counterattack on the LPL Brave Base.
Look at the outrageous configurations of the two teams.
Top laner Semb and jungler Peanut were the first top laner and jungler before the S6 game!
Even though Faker, the big devil in the middle, lost the S6 finals, countless players still think that Lee Sang Hyuk is still the man standing at the top of the world.
Not to mention having the stupid chicken who has been with them for three years by their side, Xiye and Kangdi's performance on s6 cannot be said to be bad, but in the eyes of the players, even WE's own people dare not say that they defeated the aircraft head-on.
combination.
The Wolf Stick in the bottom lane ranks second in the world after the Zero Light combination.
Any of the above players who are pulled out are the ones that clubs from all major competition areas are rushing to compete for. Now you tell me that they were grouped together in 2017...
LCK’s other Galaxy Battleship is also eye-catching.
Yangtuo and pawn announced that they would join KT as soon as they returned to the LCK, as well as Mata in the support position.
S4 Samsung Blue and White Miracle once again gathers in the LCK.
At the same time, the jungle position is played by the veteran captain Score who is famous in the LCK.
Except for top laner Khan, a newcomer, the rest are all star players without exception.
But even Mr. Khan, whom the outside world didn’t pay much attention to, Lin Huan also knew that he was the man who was once rated as the No. 1 top laner in the LCK in 2018.
That's right, it's another man who left WE.
At the end of 2016, due to the butterfly effect, KT chose Alpaca for the AD position after not talking to Boss Pei on the phone, and took away the man who was in WEA.
Outrageous!
The only way to describe the 2017 season that has changed beyond recognition is as outrageous.
"The whole northwest of Shanxi has become a mess!"
"I'm afraid this year's LPL World Championship will not be easy..."
The guy didn't go to Longzhu but instead joined KT. This year's LCK battle was undoubtedly going to be extremely bloody.
Players also understand the current signals of the LCK.
roll!
If you don't roll to death, you will roll to death. If you lose a championship in 2016, you will definitely win it on your LPL home court in 2017.
LCK's trident is even more outrageous than S6. Oh no, including the evolving Samsung, the four S-level teams are aiming directly at WE, who has achieved one-to-three achievement!
…
After the grouping ended, everyone at WE ended their short vacation.
So, just after the LCK side calmed down for a while, the painful involution on the WE side that caused major club players started again.
On the front foot, Lin Guangguang shocked Weibo with his 16-game Blood C King Game ranking in one day and one night. On the back foot, WE won the championship and started massacring the Korean and Chinese servers in the middle and jungle.
The two sides seemed to be competing with each other.
If you rank ten games, I will fight eleven. Today you won six rank MVPs, and tomorrow I will win one more than you.
Instead of getting better as time goes by, the situation becomes more serious.
Especially when all members of WE start the Korean server rankings, the competition for points and rankings is even more painful and deadly.
For a time, the ID prefixes of the top 30 Korean server champions were all codenames of SKT, KT or WE, as well as some other team members.
WE's midfielder and jungler duo ranked fourth and sixth with the highest scores. Lin Huan and Xiao Duan also squeezed into the top ten. However, 957 ranked thirteenth in the Korean server king when he played alone in the solo queue.
Originally TheShy volunteered that he could double queue as jungler and top laner, but was rejected by 957. Since Aguang is very optimistic about this newcomer's top laner, he should regard him as his successor after retirement.
I’ll put the jungle stuff aside for now, and wait until I play two more training games before watching.
I don’t know if it was an official warning to the LCK or something else. There was no such blatant actor in this ranking competition. It was really just a matter of a few teams competing for strength in the Korean server championship game.
Watching those terrifying ranking matches was frightening.
Some LPL professional club players had twisted faces.
elder brother!
elder brother!
We’ve called you brother. Isn’t it appropriate that you have already won the championship?
Not to mention losing rankings and being deducted money, external fans have almost reduced the number of ranking games to the point where they are scolded as evildoers.
Starting from the WE five-man group, gradually, Rank Emperor Zhuge Mingkai was the first to end. His professional training volume was already ranked high in the LPL. He was stimulated by WE and also turned on the involution mode, entering the dark Kai state.
Earn points like crazy.
After seeing Ming Kaidu go off the field, some players from professional clubs couldn't sit still.
At first, it was the bottom lane duo from WE. Ben and Mystic killed everyone in the Korean server, and a bunch of players from the LPL club were disgraced.
Good guys, in the entire LPL, you guys from WE are the only ones who can take part, right?
Immediately afterwards, regardless of whether it was a mandatory requirement of the club or not, the ranking of the Korean server kings could be said to be flying like crazy for a while.
It used to take a few minutes or even longer to qualify, but now it can be said to be a matter of seconds when training time comes.
The rankings of the top 30 are also overwhelming.
IG's Chicken God adds the second-generation ranked player Nakano, who is as fierce as a tiger, and RNG's UZI adds newcomer Shi Senming as assistant.
Faced with such a situation, all the major teams, regardless of whether they were starters, were forced to get involved. For a while, the major anchors put on masks of pain as if they were lying on their backs.
Professional players are generally busy playing training matches and don't pay much attention to rank points. Even in the offseason, they can only play casually to maintain scores or live broadcast entertainment.
This is the first time this year that we have seen collective involution during the offseason. As a result, the scores of the unique skills of the professional players who frequently collided with each other in the rankings plummeted.
The most eye-catching one is undoubtedly Lin Guangguang and the new assistant Duan bought from VG.
The two have a perfect understanding of each other. In the King segment, it can be described as sweeping all the bot lane combinations encountered. Whether it is the high-scoring lane king or the starting bot lane of some professional teams, they are basically no match for Lin Guangguang with full health.
Fans who have been staying in the OB live broadcast room have also discovered that as long as they encounter WE's bottom lane combination, the goals of both the enemy and ours are in sync.
The enemy wants to destroy their own bottom lane, but the teammates ranked Lin Huan and Duan Wangye are eager to eat up their own economy in the bottom lane.
"Luster's AD has developed in the team battle, how can you still lose?"
Such a sentence has unknowingly become popular in the high-level segments of the Korean server.
At the same time, countless teams with WE as their imaginary enemy are also facing a formidable enemy. I thought that even if the tenosynovitis is cured, it will affect the players' condition to some extent. Now a new assistant has been replaced as a partner, and Lin Guangguang's strength has not declined at all.
Forget it, why does it feel even more outrageous?
The only regret for fans is that in the rankings, due to the point difference, the Wolf Stick Combination Shit Combination and Lin Guangguang have never been able to collide.
On the other side, VG Club.
Seeing the brother-in-law who was exchanged perform so valiantly in rank, almost as if he was the second AD in the LPL, Boss Ding's previously unsatisfactory mood improved because Prince Duan and Lin Huan cooperated tacitly to kill everyone in rank.
"Let's just say, I can't say that every player I sell to VG is a champion and all of them are rookies. Then why don't I open an e-sports club and switch to fortune telling?"
"The blind e-sports king——Boss Ding?"
"Trash talent - you are not suitable for e-sports!"
A blind-eyed king stalker that netizens often ridiculed suddenly came to mind. Boss Ding silently shut his mouth. If he really said who was the champion, he would be depressed to death.
Watching others win the championship is more uncomfortable than not being able to enter the World Championship.
…
"Huh, grandma, you're such a bear, these devils in the LCK are too outrageous."
"Roll! Just roll us to death, right?"
In the training room, Kandi took off his headphones and complained, wiping the sweat from his forehead. After the high-intensity ranking, even just one game, the human consumption is extremely terrifying.
Sitting on the seat next to him, Xiye had just finished the data analysis of the previous set, and teased Emperor Kang: "Who told you to not only train the least during the rest period, but also to go out and gallop without restraint? How do you know you regret it?"
?”
Xiye smiled half-heartedly, with a hint of complaint in his tone.
Kandi's eyes were a little dodgey, and his face turned red, showing the embarrassment of being exposed: "Well, don't people all have normal needs? Riding a horse to gallop is reasonable, right?"
"I'm not practicing any more..."
To be honest, when he first saw an additional youth training jungler after returning to the club, Kandi's first reaction was that Hongmi and Lin Guangguang had found a substitute for him.
One of them is selfless, and the other is passionate about his career. If he had known that he had wasted more than half a month to have a pati, he might have immediately arranged a retirement ceremony without knowing it.
It’s not an exaggeration at all. When I first played in the summer split, I was ganked twice by my own AD when I went to jungle in the outer ring, and there was a quarrel.
If it were before, Kangdi knew that he would give the opponent a punch.
However, knowing in his heart that the other person also has his own interests in mind, he doesn't dare to get angry no matter what.
Xiang Renjie just couldn't control his lower body, and he wasn't some ungrateful beast.
We must know that half of the cause of Lin Guangguang's extreme tenosynovitis was caused by crazy training and carrying in the game during the period when he was in poor condition. Not to mention 100%, 80% of the cause was accounted for.
"I know, I know, I know, but I won't change my life or death, right?"
Xiye said angrily: "You are already a wild man now. Isn't it better for a man worth tens of millions to find a girl to fall in love with than to be wild?"
"I'll repeat it to you, this year everyone's goal in staying on the team is to defend the title. Whoever loses will get out of here. You have also seen the training volume of Lin Guangguang and Xiao Duan. Don't let WE cause any more fraternal feuds..."
"Xiang Renjie, I know you are not the kind of person who just waits for death after winning the championship. Otherwise, the annual salary offered by the clubs that need junglers outside will be higher than ours at WE. There is no need for you to stay. It's just a brother's request.
Can you control it for our consecutive championships?" Xiye said, and her tone changed to advise Emperor Kang.
"I……"
"Boys, end of ranking, let's have another training match today!"
Just as Kandi was about to say something, Hongmi's Chinese language, which sounded like uncooked rice, interrupted the two of them.
Xiye returned a look to Emperor Kang and then took the lead to lean over.
Lin Huan glanced at Xiye and Kangdi strangely, but since they were good friends, there was no need to eavesdrop on them.
After Duan Wangye worked hard with himself during this period of time, he has basically secured his position as the starting assistant.
Although Hongmi was a little confused about where his AD met so many outstanding players, he did not interfere too much. After all, the support coach said that the ceiling must be comfortable with the AD.
Not only the support team, but also the jungler, who was originally just rotating in the youth training, has performed in several training games after Lin Huan proposed to switch to the top laner, and his results made Redmi's eyes shine.
In TheShy, Hongmi saw the LCK-style top laner style that the LPL does not have.
Unparalleled talent!
It can only be said that he is another extremely talented player. Jiuwuqi is getting older. Unless there are special circumstances, he will consider retiring after playing this year. Now he suddenly found a top laner with excellent talent. For WE, he can only use Tianjuan.
to describe.
"Chenglu, you go up and replace Changyu for this training match with IG."
"No problem, coach!"
When Jiang Chenglu heard that he could play, even if it was just a trivial training match, his face instantly became a little joyful.
After seeing Luster's crazy training method, he knew that opportunities were earned by himself, and even if the pie fell from the sky, he needed to be able to catch it.
Even after living in South Korea since he was a child, even after arriving in China for a while, Jiang Chenglu was still cautious. As soon as Jiuwuqi got up, he helped him open the gaming chair and served him freshly brewed red date tea.
"Senior, thank you for your hard work."
"There's no need for Chenglu to be so polite." Jiuwuqi took the water and gently patted the other party's shoulder.
Jiu Wuqi, who has a gentle personality, did not regard the shy young man in front of him as a competitor. On the contrary, he saw in him the same shadow as Lin Guangguang when he first arrived at the WE Club.
My career has come to an end, so it would be good to be able to train a successor to the top laner for the club.
Wherever the leaves are dancing, the fire is endless.
The legacy of the red warrior's top laner should not end with him.
He came from the training position and sat down next to a few assistant coaches. Jiuwuqi glanced at the AD villain who couldn't wait to play.
"Ah Guang... this year will be my last dance."
"I hope I can help you win consecutive championships."
…
In the game against IG, Lin Huan followed the coach's instructions and played with a tight end, choosing the pressure-resistant combination of Wheel Mom and Niutou in the bottom lane.
The Shy Man, who is still in the growth stage of the top lane, will naturally not be happy with the experienced Mr. Duke. In the early stage, due to his too aggressive play style and lack of professional top lane experience, TheShy frequently became the target of General Sturgeon's care.
So much so that it collapsed within ten minutes of being on the road in the early stage.
In fact, many people in the outside world have a huge misunderstanding about General Sturgeon after 2016. They said that after transforming into a jungler, he would only catch hits. In 2016, IG was really wronged...
If the child god wants to win the game, shouldn't he have to use all his strength to hit the target when faced with the top and bottom teams that are so unbelievable this year?
The Kangxi combination in the middle lane did not get much advantage when facing the outbreak of Chicken God in the small universe. Before entering the mid-jungle version before S7, the enemy jungler relied on catching the upper lane, not to mention that the bottom lane is a pressure-resistant combination.
With the bull-horse combination, WE automatically fell into a disadvantage in the early stage.
Problems along the way are reduced, and the mid-term chicken master takes over the game smoothly.
Twenty minutes later, the training match ended.
Both teams exit the game.
IG was somewhat excited to win the new world championship, and everyone cheered loudly in the club training room.
"Holy shit, we can actually beat WE? Unbelievable."
"It's not easy."
"Oh, it's Lin Guangguang and the others who didn't play seriously."
There is a slightly depressed expression on the fat face of the broiler. If someone else has a cute new top laner and a bottom lane that resists pressure and is swimming wildly in the early stage, you can only win because he is practicing the lineup.
Just like this, my bottom lane combination failed to suppress the last hit of the wheel mother in ten minutes, and its output was beaten in twenty minutes.
"I really envy WE..."
Looking at the settlement screen, Broiler uttered these words at the end, and the bottom duo, who lowered their heads, buried their faces deeper.
They also knew that their mid laner didn't mean to complain, he just simply complained.
Their performance in the bottom lane in this game was not much better than that of the opponent's rookie top laner.
WETheShy!
Bottom lane duo adds up!
Well, from a statistical point of view, the death rate is much lower, and the kills and assists are remarkable.
But this was a game with a big tailwind. A female police officer and Karma could not crush the wheel mother and the bull head. In the 13th minute, the tower stood there firmly. If someone else invested a lot of jungle resources in the bottom lane, it would not be the same.
That's it, the problem is that other people's bull-horse combination is really used to resist pressure.
How else can it be explained that it’s not a crime?
If it weren't for Broiler's Syndra's advanced development and a collapsed top laner, it's unclear whether he could win the training match.
The coach behind him was numb. WE, which had retained the three original members, and two newcomers, were able to compete with IG without using a bottom lane carry system. This year's Spring Split is probably going to be hopeless.
.
Of course, he didn't dare to say this to Broiler. His depressed mood was well-established. After all, it would take time for the new top laner to get used to it. After the training match, he could take the players out for a meal and that would be enough.
The IG coach who is full of Ah Q's spirit comforts himself so much that he directly ignores that the opponent WE is also a running lineup.
Inside the WE Club.
At review time, the five players who had just finished the training match received an A4-sized piece of data analysis in their hands.
The one in Xiye is about four lines long.
Lin Huan's own is the least, just two short sentences.
"The combination of Wheel Mom and Niutou is lacking. The bot lane relies on personal strength to hit the counter push line and fails to complete the team training task (two points deducted). Refer to the B-level evaluation of the IG bottom lane duo and use Wheel Mom and Policewoman.
There are many times of intention to fight, and it is easy to give opportunities when switching to a stronger opponent..."
The analysis team brought by Hongmi is very powerful. Lin Huan does not rely on his core position in the team to do anything special. If he wants to go further in the future professional league, the diversification of team tactics is essential.
It would indeed be great for AD if the team only plays the bottom lane, but over time others will know how to target it. At that time, it would be unimaginable to arrange two more level two captures or when AD does not lose control in team fights.
the comfort in.
It feels so good to lie behind a teammate who is carrying like crazy and fuck him with peace of mind.
The team owned by Mr. Bang of S6 is Lin Huan’s ultimate goal in 2017.
There is nothing wrong with the duel. After Shui Zi came on the scene, IG's bottom lane was still under a bit of pressure. As for now...
After upgrading the involution value, Lin Huan's laning and teamfighting abilities have reached the double SS level.
