After the game, Xiaotian won his first MVP in LPL, a half-cat achievement.
Although Xiaotian is usually very arrogant and seems quite optimistic, he is actually under a lot of psychological pressure and is eager to prove himself on the LPL stage.
This is why Zhuge Liang often chooses to suppress the two old guys like Zi Zi and Wei Shen, but he mainly encourages Xiaotian and rarely scolds and punishes him.
Posture: "Xiaoyao, why are your eyes red? Someone really won't cry after winning MVP, right?"
Wei Shen: "Please stop being disgusting, I vomited!"
Short paragraph: "This is a very good shot, and I deserve the MVP award!"
Old thief: "Congratulations."
Okay, I was a little excited just now, but now I’m gone!
"Oh, the big brother is not very good. This made me lie down and get an MVP. Am I getting old and weak and need to be replenished?" Xiaotian opened his mouth and said with an eager tone of asking for help.
p>
Posture: "Young man, I advise you to use rat tail juice!"
Wei Shen: "Rookie, have you been a little bloated lately?"
Short paragraph: "It's necessary to help the newcomers. After all, MVPs like us who have been here have been softened!"
Old thief: "???"
Everyone surrounded Xiaotian in the corner with a very kind expression.
……
Not long after, the staff came to knock on the door and informed Xiaotian and Lao Thief to accept a post-game interview.
Everyone then stopped persecuting the garlic bastard and helped Xiaotian, who had messy hair, disheveled clothes and no idea where his glasses were, to tidy up his appearance.
The two came to the center of the stage, and it was Yu Shuang who was in charge of the interview today.
"First of all, congratulations to V5 for winning the game. We also welcome Brother Ma and Xiaotian to accept our post-game interview. Let's say hello to everyone first!" Yu Shuang said with a smile.
"Hello everyone, I am Tian, the jungler of V5." Xiaotian felt a little stiff when he was on camera for the first time.
"Good evening everyone." The character of the old thief is still stable, and he cherishes words like gold as always.
"Today is the first game of the new season. I successfully defeated EDG in straight sets. How do you feel now?" Yu Shuang squeezed out a smile and tried to guide.
"It's okay. The competition went relatively smoothly. I don't need to be criticized by the coach when I go back, and I don't have to worry about being in the canteen this week." After a short period of adaptation, Xiaotian started to work hard.
"I'm very happy when I win the game." The old thief was indifferent throughout the whole process, and his unsmiling face couldn't tell where he was happy.
Yu Shuang smiled awkwardly and politely, feeling very crazy inside.
Why did God send these two interview ghosts to torture her?
"Many players are now paying attention to the new team V5. How do you think the team is getting along now, and what are your expectations for the new season?" Yu Shuang continued to ask.
"The atmosphere in the team is very good. The big brothers are very 'taking care' of me as a newcomer. I also hope that the team can achieve good results to 'repay' their care!" Xiaotian deliberately re-read the two key words.<
/p>
"Just play every game well." The old thief replied coldly.
Under Zhuge Liang's instructions, the two of them did not release clear goals or prospects, and just muddle along vaguely.
V5 still needs time to develop, so it’s best to keep a low profile to avoid being taken as a target.
"I hope V5 can prepare well and win every next game. I also hope that the two of them can perform better. In fact, many fans came to the scene today to support V5. Do you have anything to say to them?
Where is it?" Yu Shuang's speech speed increased by two beats, and there was also a pause in the middle.
"Thank you for your support. Please be safe on your way back." Xiaotian said seriously.
"I don't know what to say, thank you for buying the tickets." The old thief held it in for a while and then said.
"Okay, thank you both for accepting the post-game interview. Next is the fan interaction session!" Yu Shuang let out a long breath, and it was over.
Starting from this season, the official has once again increased the proportion of fan interaction sessions, and organized handshake parties, fan photos, post-game gifts, interesting questions and answers, team theme days and other activities.
In short, we are trying different ways to increase fan stickiness, encourage fans to buy tickets, buy peripherals, and spend money to support LPL.
There is a saying, with the commercialization of the league, the LPL fan base is becoming more and more fan-like.
Looking at the fans who had an interactive session after the game, female fans accounted for most of them. It can be seen that when it comes to supporting their favorite players and teams with real money, male fans are really like younger brothers compared to female fans.
It's just that once this trend spreads, it is estimated that some weird operations in the professional circle will inevitably appear in the future.
Well, I understand everything.
……
After finally waiting until all the activities were over, everyone was already exhausted physically and mentally when they got on the bus.
Dealing with fans is simply more energy-consuming than high-intensity battles, especially for people like the old thief who don't like to talk. They are completely forced to do business.
It’s even more uncomfortable when you encounter something so inexplicable that you still can’t let people go.
Although it was already very late, everyone had to rush to the capital overnight in order to have more time to prepare for the next game.
There is no way, the schedule is too tight. If we stay in the Magic City tonight and leave for the capital the next day, there will be almost not enough time for everyone to adjust and prepare for the battle.
So, despite the glamor of professional players, it’s really not something ordinary people can persist in if they want to get ahead.
Everyone arrived in the capital in the early morning, stayed at the hotel they had booked, and entered the room half asleep one by one and fell asleep.
Zhuge Liang had the skill support provided by the system and took a nap on the plane. Therefore, he was still energetic at the moment, so he simply started organizing the information and reviewing the game content overnight.
In this professional world full of geniuses, talent is nothing more than a stepping stone. Without hard work and diligence, it is useless.
No one’s success falls from the sky, and the same goes for Zhuge Liang.
"This year's SKT is really too strong!" Zhuge Liang couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows after watching the LCK game that was also played last night.
SKT’s opponent is AF, a strong LCK team with a higher rating in the new season.
But when AF met SKT, they had almost no room to fight back. They were beaten throughout the whole process, with two Linglong Towers!
Compared with the performance in the K Cup, SKT has once again completed its transformation after a week.
Especially after the liberation of the mid-jungle, Peanut and Faker are like a power-training combination. The mid-jungle linkage has made great progress compared to last year.
In other words, they found the right way to cooperate and found common ground in each other's playing styles.
If nothing else goes wrong, if LPL wants to compete for consecutive championships this year, SKT will definitely be unable to overcome the hurdle.
Even the complete IG may not be able to beat this SKT!
Coupled with the fact that RNG was supposed to dominate the entire year and almost achieved a grand slam, as well as many spoilers that appeared due to the influence of butterfly wings, this year has undoubtedly become more difficult for Zhuge Liang.
