LOL: I really didn't want to be a comedian!

Chapter 224 "I suggest that Brother Chicken's skin be sold for thirty yuan more!"

"Huh? Gnik, so happy? You jumped up!?"

In Lao K's live stream, watching Di Wu, who hadn't had time to stop and had naturally started doing hand gestures on the screen, couldn't help but smile.

What about screen recording?
What about the live stream replay?
Save this video for me. Seventy years from now, put it on Gnik's tombstone and play it by scanning the QR code!

"He's getting more and more unconventional! If LGD makes it to MSI this year and reaches the finals, I'll stream myself and show everyone what he's up to!"

"I, K God, always keep my word!"

Looking at the screen full of comments, Lao K couldn't help but stick out his tongue.

I got to eat chicken blood buns again!
I'll eat you alive if you do that hand gesture dance! (Laughs)
Meanwhile, at the Hangzhou Esports Center, Di Wu had already arrived at EDG's side and shaken hands with the EDG players.

However, Scout's gaze towards him seemed somewhat...
Hehe! Di Wu's lips curled up slightly; he was all too familiar with that look.

Kanavi looked at his buddy like this last year, didn't he?
"Are you OK?"

Di Wu glanced at Scout's 0-7 score on the computer screen behind him.

Scout's so-called signature Zoe was killed by Diwu from the laning phase until the end of the game.

???

you.
Scout's Chinese was already quite good, but upon hearing Di Wu's words, he almost vomited blood.
"Cough cough."

"I'm fine! See you in the playoffs!"

After this game, the next few games will probably all be playoffs.

I was clearly not in great form today, just you wait, Gnik! Wait for me to get my revenge in the playoffs!

See you in the playoffs?

Let's see if we run into each other in the Spring Split!
After greeting the EDG players, LGD returned to the main stage to celebrate their victory.

So far, LGD has defeated FPX, RNG, and EDG. The three strongest teams in the Spring Split besides LGD have all been defeated by LGD.

If LGD plays steadily and cautiously, they have a chance to finish the Spring Split undefeated.

Di Wu straightened his back slightly. Last year, the absence of the MSI allowed Europe to escape a disaster.

This year's MSI has shown everyone that the era of Gnik has begun!

Di Wu was immediately taken to the interview area upon returning to the rest room, but it was the LCK's interview area.

Xi Ran then took on the role of translator.
"Congratulations! Yone was amazing today!"

"Oh, luck, luck! Just a fluke!"

Di Wu shook his head modestly, saying that to be honest, EDG's performance in this match wasn't very good either.

Scout, in particular, was outplayed by himself in two consecutive games in different ways.

luck?

Did you get lucky and solo kill EDG's top, mid, jungle, and ADC all by yourself?
Did luck manage to take down Viper out of five people?
After Di Wu put on his headphones, the voices of LCK commentators came through.

After listening, Xi Ran also translated for Di Wu.

"Hello everyone, I'm Gnik, the mid laner from LGD!"

Facing the LCK interview, Di Wu showed no fear, while Xi Ran continued translating over the other end of the headset.

"Congratulations to LGD for winning this match and maintaining their undefeated streak. I'd especially like to ask Gnik why he chose Yone in the second match today?"

"Yone? This lane matchup against Zoe is a pretty good choice, especially since the enemy team is all squishy, ​​Yone can easily clean up the battlefield!"

Di Wu's answer was rather official; the main reason Yong En was brought out in this match was because...
I want to play!

I also want to try laning against Scout's Zoe and see how it goes.

EDG might go very far this year, so I want to experience Zoe, which is known as Scout's signature move.

But maybe I went a little too far?

"Gnik is also the first player in the LPL region to use Yone in the mid lane. Can you share some points about what Yone needs to pay attention to in a team?"

Upon hearing this, Di Wu couldn't help but smile.
"Gnik is fine as my ID!"

Xi Ran was just about to remind Di Wu not to reveal his tactics when Di Wu's words made her lose her composure.

Xi Ran quickly translated the sentence, and the LCK host was clearly stunned for a moment.

Not a buddy?
Is it necessary to be so pretentious? What do you mean by "it's fine as long as the ID is Gnik"?
Do you really think you're the only one who can do Yone?

Our LCK region can also have its own Yone!
The LCK host was clearly a bit unconvinced and asked the next question.

"Previously, Chovy from the LCK region also picked Yone and carried the game. I wonder who do you think has a stronger Yone, you or Chovy?"

Di Wu understood what the LCK host meant.
A hint of coldness flickered in his eyes.
"Hehe, I'll just take it as a joke, okay?"

???

When Xiran's translation was transmitted to the LCK stream, the LCK chat was already filled with question marks.

"GGGGGGnik!!!"

"As expected of the king of Shanghai, his attitude is something professional players should learn from! Confidence!"

"That's absolute self-confidence!"

"Chovy may still have room to grow, but what if I told you Gnik is only 19?"

Will Gnik be the new Demon King?

Clearly, LCK viewers were also shocked by Di Wu's performance last year.

And this year
DK is a minor nerf. Khan may be very good in terms of experience, but he lacks the all-around versatility of Nuguri.

Khan is no longer the super top laner who was once hailed as the world's best top laner.

But DK still dominated LCK this year, which shows how strong LGD was last year.

Moreover, LGD has strengthened its roster this year, adding Keria, last year's LCK Spring Split Rookie of the Year, to its support position.

MSI and the others couldn't even imagine how terrifyingly dominant LGD would be!
in particular.
Gnik isn't some old man who suddenly had an epiphany, is he?

He was only 18 when he won the championship last year, and he's only 19 this year. If he continues to maintain this level of performance...
LCK viewers, though somewhat disheartened, had to admit it.
This is similar to how the LPL watched Faker debut in 13.
"Sense of despair"

These three words resonated with viewers in the LCK region and even across various regions worldwide.

The LCK host, seeing Di Wu's cold expression on the screen, knew that this question had displeased him.
only.
Why does the LPL host next to me also look a bit cold?

Their gazes seemed to be shooting lasers that would pierce through the connection at any moment.
Isn't that a little scary?
After finishing his LCK interview, Di Wu ran into Peanut, who had just come down from the main stage, in the player tunnel.

The two looked at each other and smiled unconsciously.

"Brother Chicken, what are we going to eat later?"

"Hmm, how about a chicken hot pot? I'd like to add an extra portion of fried tofu!"

"Oh~ Is Chicken Pot the MVP today?"

"Why do I feel like you're subtly criticizing me? Woof! Your Chinese is getting better and better!"

"Hahaha, Flandre has been teaching me something every day lately!"

Don't let him lead you astray.

Two figures gradually disappeared into the contestant tunnel.
After this match, EDG's official account was flooded with comments.

Years of hard work have left EDG fans feeling frustrated and disappointed.

Especially since today's opponent is the factory manager's old nemesis?

They directly cut the price of Peanuts, the brand with the 4396 logo, from the factory! They want revenge, huh? The factory manager was watching backstage during today's match. And then Scout took a huge dump on stage!
"Seriously, does Scout even want to play? If not, he should switch mid laners already! Viper was playing so well, and he's feeding the enemy!"

"He wasn't even committing a crime anymore, it feels like he just threw his life away? His death was too casual!"

"How about the factory manager teaches Scout a couple of moves? At least try to maintain his KDA, right?"

"That's brilliant! EDG has never disappointed us when it comes to being disappointing!"

"Even pigs and dogs lost to LGD. LGD is too strong this year, they are simply a perfect team!"

After this battle, no one will question LGD's dominance anymore.

The remaining matches of the Spring Split were relatively easy, especially after defeating TES. LGD went on a winning streak, achieving their fourteenth win of the Spring Split, securing a playoff spot and almost guaranteeing a top-two finish in the LPL regular season.

This year's playoffs will be a double-elimination format, with the top four teams having a chance to revive their fortunes.

Therefore, the competition for the top four and top two positions became extremely fierce, and the top two positions meant that at least one player had a chance to be resurrected.

After LGD secured one qualification with a perfect record, the three biggest competitors for the remaining qualification seem to be RNG, EDG, and TES.

TES, who performed poorly in the early stages of the Spring Split, managed to maintain their ranking by relying on their two carries, who are still among the top in the league.

It is worth mentioning.
After a losing streak, FPX replaced Tian with jungler Bo. After a winning streak, Bo was also suspended due to an investigation. FPX then chose to bring in their second team jungler, Beichuan.

So far, the results seem rather mediocre.
But it's not that important to Di Wu. Which jungler in the LPL doesn't have explosive stats when they first come out on the field?

Once it has been thoroughly studied, it will eventually return to calm.

The real test of their value will come in crucial moments like the playoffs and the World Championship.

However, Bo Ren doesn't have that opportunity! People always have to pay the price for their actions.

You're not a child anymore!
After failing to achieve the desired effect with Kitagawa, FPX opted to bring Tian back in, and FPX immediately returned to the ranks of strong teams.

The good news is
FPX is back, but are they really back?

It seems like nothing has changed, yet it also seems like everything has changed.

FPX has set an example for BLG; while BLG uses two junglers, FPX uses three!
Add to that FPX's legendary jungler, Xin Yi, and you've got enough for a mahjong game.

The changes in other teams did not have a significant impact on LGD, who had already secured a top-two ranking in the LPL.

And so it has arrived.
The official photos of the championship skins have been released, and all the championship skins have been revealed. The next version will be launched on the test server.

The Chinese server will then launch simultaneously. Putting everything else aside, when it comes to selling skins, our Chinese server will absolutely not allow itself to lag behind other servers.

However, many people are still worried about LGD's championship skins, given their past record with last year's S9 championship skins.

Everyone is quite worried that Riot Games will once again turn LGD's skins into garbage.

After all, they defeated an LCK team, and won the championship on their own turf.

It still has some commemorative significance.

When the entire LGD team was invited to see his skin, Diwu himself was a little excited.

Little Peanut rubbed his hands together and asked, "Brother Chicken, what did you choose again?"

"??? I want to punch you!"

Di Wu pouted slightly in dissatisfaction, even though his own viewers knew he had chosen Sylas.

You fucking ask yourself what skin you chose? Are you even my teammate?

"Oh, sorry, Silas~"

After arriving at the official filming location, the LGD team finally got to see Lauma again after a long absence.

Actually, it wasn't easy for Lao Ma either. His synergy with TES was actually pretty good, and his brother's ability to carry the support role was definitely not a problem.

However, the teamwork of TES was a bit disorganized.

They've finally settled down recently and have had a short winning streak.

"Brother Chicken!"

Ma Qu looked at Di Wu with tears welling up in his eyes.

Only he knew how rare it was to find a mid-laner who was clear-headed, capable of commanding, and skilled in combat.

Moreover, although Di Wu is usually quite friendly, he is absolutely ruthless when he scolds people when he is in command.

TES is full of nice guys who can't say anything harsh, which makes them too prone to chaos in team fights.

Knight isn't the type to stand up and yell at people; the only one who's a bit ruthless is Ka-Ge.

But at most, he could only say that he played the 69-year-old's barrel like a piece of shit.

"What's wrong? You're acting like your brother has wronged you!"

Di Wu couldn't help but smile. It was already quite good that she hadn't lost her job and gone to her brother's place a year earlier.

You're still acting all aggrieved? Your brother hasn't even said anything yet.

"I didn't miss you! It's just that!"

GALA, standing next to Mark, almost couldn't hold back her laughter at his appearance.
"Hahaha, how disgusting! Mark!" Peanut joked naturally when he saw his teammate and friend from last year.

Flandre even bluntly stated, "Hey, Mark and Chicken Bro are complaining that Knight isn't as good as a Gnik!"

???

Mark's lips twitched slightly when he heard Flandre's words.

It's true, but bro? You really want me dead?!

"Ahem, alright, alright! Everyone, let's take a look at the skin's splash art first!" Mai Zijian reminded the LGD members and Mark.
Di Wu led the LGD team to the official venue, where the skins chosen by the five LGD players had been decided long ago.

Flandre hesitated between Jayce, Renekton, and Ornn, but ultimately chose Ornn as her championship skin.

Peanut hesitated between the prince and Olaf for a while, and finally chose Olaf.

GALA didn't hesitate and directly chose EZ as the championship skin.

Mark hesitated between Poppy and Leona, but ultimately chose his favorite, Leona.

All five players chose the skins they wanted, and the official team first showed the LGD players the original artwork.

Then the camera zoomed in on each championship skin, and when it froze on the Sylas skin chosen by Diwu.

(Just a quick sketch! After all, this is Chicken Bro's first skin!)

The designer couldn't help but give Di Wu a thumbs up.

Di Wu communicated a lot with the official team, and this skin actually added a lot of interactive menus and special effects.

The designer gestured as he explained, while the other LGD players cast envious glances at Di Wu.
They were even starting to regret it. Wait, could it really have been like this? Why didn't you say so sooner?!

Flandre stroked her chin, looking on with envy.
"Hey, that's not fair! Chicken Bro's skin has so many easter eggs?"

"I suggest that Brother Chicken's skin be sold for thirty yuan more!"

"Then we'll get thirty dollars!"

"Hmm~ Good idea!"

"I second the motion!!"

"No hair!!"
