LOL: Do you have any regrets?

Chapter 232 Lottery and Grouping Ceremony
After everyone from Samsung came in, another group of people appeared. Even though they were far away, Chen Luoyang recognized SKT at a glance.

He was so familiar with this team that he could recognize it at a glance.

Moreover, SKT and Samsung didn't seem to be able to deal with it. Seeing that Samsung was in front of them, they chose to give way.

Chen Luoyang laughed when he saw this. It was clearly a team in the competition area, but they had the hatred of killing their father, and it was like this in national competitions.

Everyone from Samsung and SKT also walked to the edge of the stage, subconsciously glanced at EDG, and met Chen Luoyang's eyes.

Although it was only for a moment, Chen Luoyang could feel the hostility.

He can also understand that for LCK now, EDG is their lingering nightmare.

"I'll go, you guys are here so early?" At this moment, Chen Luoyang heard a familiar voice.

Following the reputation, I found that the first five RNG players came with the coach, and it was UZI who spoke.

And there are a few people behind RNG, everyone is dressed to deal with, Chen Luoyang recognized it at a glance, IG.

Now the stadium became lively. The teams from the European, American and wild card divisions that had arrived took the initiative to say hello to the teams from the LCK and LPL.

Although they all greet each other, judging from their expressions and tone, there is still a big difference.

When greeting RNG and IG, it is obviously more enthusiastic. After all, we have trained together for half a month and learned a lot from each other.

And the attitude towards LCK is much colder, and the attitude towards SKT is a little better, but it is still not comparable to the attitude towards EDG.

As time went on, more and more people entered the venue, and there was a distinct sense of a split.

People from the LMS division and the wild card division are obviously closer to the LCK teams.

The teams in the European and American divisions are more familiar with the LPL side, and there are already two small circles on this stage.

After some chatting, a few people with badges and cameras came over and began to communicate with the teams. Except for the teams in the European and American divisions, the other teams brought translators, so there was no problem in communication.

So under the guidance of the official staff, the shooting began.

This shooting is equivalent to a documentary, mainly in the form of monologues, let the star players of each team speak a paragraph, briefly introduce the current situation of the team, and the outlook for the future, of course, these things are official and each team in advance Negotiated.

Naturally, these scripts were not written by the team members, but were arranged for by special documents, and the team members only needed to familiarize themselves with it.

The representative of EDG was naturally Chen Luoyang, and he was assigned the first one.

Not only that, when the filming started, the staff also pushed out a prop, a throne with quite gorgeous decoration!

Chen Luoyang was arranged to be filmed on it. The filming process was relatively simple. After all, professional players are not professional actors, so the effect mainly depends on the photographer's skills and post-processing.

After Chen Luoyang accepted the filming, everyone in EDG stepped forward, and the director arranged positions and movements, and they filmed another section together, so that it was basically over.

After the filming of the EDG crowd, it was SKT's turn this time, and the status of the team was clear at a glance.

The most exaggerated thing is that after SKT went up, they wanted to try to sit on the throne, but the staff came up and took it away, saying that they didn't need it.

Now the audience roared with laughter, and everyone in EDG was also amused.

Because there was a picture of all the teams filming together at the end, everyone in EDG could only wait first, and a group of people came to the Guan auditorium to find seats.

The factory manager said: "Why do you feel that there is a gap between the champion teams? It seems that only SKT and Samsung had this kind of treatment before."

Ah Shui: "You said it was in the past, and now there should be no team whose dominance is comparable to ours."

Abramovich affirmed: "It is indeed the case. The champion of the S tournament, the champion of MSI, and the champion of the spring and summer league. It is estimated that other teams will not be able to break this record."

"And we have the highest winning games and winning percentage, so everyone is a champion, and there is still a big gap."

At this time, Chen Luoyang suddenly said: "We will have two champions soon, and the gap will only get bigger and bigger in the future."

Factory manager: "Yes, the gap will only get bigger and bigger in the future, and this is just the beginning."

Ah Shui: "I suggest that the number of S game champions should be reflected on the future team uniforms, so as to distinguish them from other teams."

Abu nodded after hearing this: "This proposal is good. If you can win the championship this time, I can give feedback to the old method, and put two small trophies on the team uniform, or other patterns to represent the number of champions in the S game." .”

Everyone was discussing vigorously, and Meikou suddenly interrupted: "Is this how you set up the flag? Don't scare me, okay, champagne is opened at halftime, what if the car overturns?"

After hearing this, Abu immediately realized that he was a little carried away. The players can expand a little bit, but he, the coach, must not be inflated, so he quickly changed his words:

"Let's talk about these things later. Focus on the game now. The draw will start in a few days. Get ready."

Everyone in EDG nodded.

At noon, the staff brought out food for everyone to make do with, and everyone in EDG was not too picky.

However, Chen Luoyang overheard that LCK seemed to be complaining about something, so he asked the translator:

"Do you know what people in the LCK are talking about?"

This interpreter not only understands English, but also understands Korean, which is very necessary. Although we are sworn enemies with LCK, sometimes we need to communicate.

The interpreter said, "They seem to be saying that there is no such thing as kimchi that you can't get used to."

Hearing this, everyone in EDG laughed.

"Kimchi? Are you kidding me? What's so delicious about that kind of food?" Ah Shui laughed, his voice was so loud that everyone in the LCK looked over.

Chen Luoyang also said, "Does this mean that wild pigs can't eat the chaff?"

When Chen Luoyang said this, everyone in EDG burst into laughter. In fact, he also learned this sentence from the Internet, and he didn't expect the effect to be so good.

Everyone in EDG laughed like that, and the people in LCK couldn't help it. They muttered something in their mouths. Although they couldn't hear them, they definitely weren't good words.

After a short break after lunch, the filming started again. It was not until the evening that the filming of all the teams ended, and then the sixteen participating teams walked onto the stage together, and the director began to arrange their positions.

EDG, SKT, and Samsung were placed at the forefront, and the three championship teams must be given some face-to-face.

And everyone in EDG was arranged between Samsung and SKT, and at first glance it was the position of the big brother.

After standing up, Chen Luoyang glanced left and right, and found that the faces of SKT and Samsung were very ugly.

Chen Luoyang reckoned that they must be very dissatisfied. After all, everyone is an S champion, but the difference in treatment is so obvious.

It took half an hour, and the shooting finally ended. On behalf of Riot, the official staff expressed their gratitude to everyone, and then the scene ended.

Chen Luoyang and everyone in EDG were about to leave when the staff in charge of the scene suddenly ran up and danced at everyone in EDG, looking very excited.

The translator said, "They said they wanted to take a group photo and sign their names."

"Okay." Abu naturally wouldn't refuse, so under the envious eyes of other teams, everyone in EDG took a photo with the staff, and then came one by one.

Chen Luoyang became the busiest person. He simply put on his pose first, and then the others took turns to take a photo with him. This was quite efficient.

By the time they finished taking the group photo, the other teams were gone.

Everyone in EDG left the stadium together, boarded the bus, and returned to the hotel.

Everyone had a meal in the hotel restaurant together, and then broke up and went back to their respective homes.

Chen Luoyang returned to his room. This day was even more tiring than his RANK playing all day. Chen Luoyang chose to give himself a day off. He will watch the LCK game tonight, study their style of play and BP, and wait until the matter of RANK Let's talk tomorrow.

However, the plan couldn’t keep up with the changes. On the second day, everyone in EDG was called by the officials again. This time, they went to different scenic spots in San Francisco to shoot material. The staff said that yesterday’s filming was only a part, and today is the highlight.

No way, everyone in EDG can only choose to cooperate.

Chen Luoyang suddenly realized that it was not easy to get into the top ten of the US server. The biggest problem was time, and there were too many official arrangements.

A week passed quickly, and Chen Luoyang had just registered his account as a master, and the lottery ceremony began!

And Chen Luoyang was invited as a guest, representing the entire LPL competition area.

The official requirement was to wear team uniforms, which saved Chen Luoyang a lot of trouble, and he didn't have to buy suits and the like.

That night, after dinner, Chen Luoyang walked out of the hotel with the translator under the guidance of the staff, and was about to rush to the competition venue.

As a result, as soon as he walked out of the hotel, Chen Luoyang saw a familiar figure, faker.

Faker was accompanied by two people, one seemed to be an interpreter, and the other was a staff member.

It seems that faker will also participate in this lottery ceremony, representing the LCK.
Seeing this, Chen Luoyang took the initiative to go forward and waved, which was regarded as a greeting.

And faker's reaction was relatively cold, just gave a professional smile.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind Chen Luoyang. Looking back, he saw two acquaintances, Bilson and Ah P!

At this time, Ah P's hairline is not so exaggerated, and the whole person looks quite energetic.

Chen Luoyang had to sigh, time is a butcher's knife, such a good boy, how could he become a master of tricks and a clown in the future.

Ah P looked a little shy, Bilson first came up to greet Chen Luoyang, and Ah P followed.

After the two of them greeted Chen Luoyang, they noticed Faker not far away, so they went up to greet him with a few warm words.

After everyone greeted each other, Bilson and Ah P walked over to Chen Luoyang subconsciously, and the three of them chatted without saying a word.

Faker wanted to chat with the two of them, but he seemed reluctant to come over, so he felt quite awkward.

After chatting at the door for a few minutes, a stretched Lincoln pulled to the side of the road, the door opened, and two studio staff came down, inviting Chen Luoyang and his party to get in the car.

Chen Luoyang got on the bus first, found a comfortable seat and sat down, the other three and their translators got on the bus afterward, Bilson and Ah P sat next to Chen Luoyang, faker was unique, and found a place closest to Chen Luoyang remote location.

Chen Luoyang thought to himself that the car was spacious enough, if it was smaller, Faker would have to sit next to him, and the scene would probably be embarrassing.

Others didn't think too much about Faker, after all, he was defeated, but he could feel that all LCK professional players, including Faker, were hostile to him.

Chen Luoyang can also understand that he is now the biggest enemy of the LCK. E-sports has always been the pride of their countrymen, and he probably feels very uncomfortable being defeated by his neighbors in this regard.

Soon, the extended Lincoln started, and the car drove slowly, as if cruising the streets, and even in San Francisco, this car could attract a lot of attention.

Half an hour later, the car stopped, and Chen Luoyang was brought to the competition site again.

Under the guidance of the staff, they went to the backstage VIP room. In the VIP room, several staff members began to briefly introduce the rules to Chen Luoyang and his party. The rules were actually simple.

This group match is divided into four groups, each group has four teams.

So each of them has to draw four teams and arrange them into the four teams.

After listening to the introduction, Chen Luoyang waited for another 10 minutes, and another staff member pushed the door in, saying that he was ready to go on stage.

Chen Luoyang took the lead and walked towards the stage, while Bilson and Ah P followed behind Chen Luoyang consciously.

But faker, at first he wanted to fight for the first place, but seeing that Chen Luoyang took the place first, he had no choice but to let Chen Luoyang go first.

When Chen Luoyang came to the stage, there was a burst of cheers immediately.

He didn't expect that there would be spectators in this lottery ceremony, but after all, Riot is a commercial company, and making games is not a charity, so it must do everything possible to make money.

After taking the stage, Chen Luoyang stood aside and waited for the host to finish speaking.

The host introduced one by one, and when he read his ID, Chen Luoyang chose to wave to the camera.

The audience cheered again.

At this time, the popularity of the official live broadcast room has reached more than 2000 million!

The lottery ceremony was broadcast live simultaneously around the world. Originally, many people were not interested in this kind of program, but it was different when they heard that the star players from each division were in charge.

As soon as Chen Luoyang appeared, the barrage began to pop up:

"The leader is here! The leader is here!"

"The leader seems to be the first one, so well-known."

"That seems to be faker, why does he look reluctant."

"Is this the treatment of the world's number one top laner?"

"I hope to be in a group with SKT, and stop SKT in the group stage first!"

"It's impossible for the No. [-] seed to be grouped together. What are you thinking?"

"Then get into a group with Samsung and get rid of the Korean team first!"

Everyone was discussing, the host had finished the introduction, and began to invite representatives to come to the stage to draw lots.

As the representative of the LPL division, Chen Luoyang was the first to be invited to go behind the drawer, ready to start the draw.
