League of Legends: Arrow of Champions

Chapter 739 [760] If you lose, everything is an excuse
In the Spring Split, SKY suddenly emerged, especially after they won the MSI championship. Everyone thought that the T(TL)L(Loong) competition that lasted for several seasons had come to an end. It's TL.

Before the game, most people were more optimistic about Yulong, because the state of TL this year was obviously not as good as before. Although the state improved in the second half of the summer split, the morale of the Yulong team was also strong.

Many people were surprised by TL's victory in the three-point battle in the third game, and even the commentators couldn't help but sigh: "We must face up to it. After the setbacks in the spring split and the dormancy in the first half of the summer split, the familiar TL came back!"

Life and death game TL defeated the Yulong team again and won their seventh LPL championship. At the same time, they also became the No. [-] seed representing the LPL division in this year's World Championship.

The second seed of the Yulong team.

After the finals, the official immediately publicized the news of TL's victory with the headline "The Return of the King". Fans also swept away the gloomy silence since the defeat in the Spring Split, rejoiced, and publicized and celebrated in various online forums.

In contrast, the fans of the Fish and Dragons can only tell themselves that the World Championship is the highlight.

And SKY fans are still worried about whether their team can enter the World Championship. Many people are very depressed. As the champion of the Spring Split, it is obvious that SKY is the most beneficial to enter the World Championship. Fighting for the last place in the bubbling competition, and thinking about how beautiful it was after winning the spring competition, many fans once again deeply realized what it means to be impermanent.

On the second day after the final, Lin Xuan, who had no choice but to go to court early, accompanied Xiao Nizi to have breakfast, then went back to the base to pack her things, and then went to the airport together to fly to the capital, preparing to participate in tomorrow's bubbling match.

The opponent in the first round of the bubbling match was AVI. As a dark horse that only emerged this spring, AVI’s performance in the regular season of the summer split was exceptional. They lost only two of the 3 BO[-] games in the regular season. Just lost to SKY.

This is a battle of revenge, and it is also a battle that must be fought. No team may give up the temptation of the World Championship.

As far as SKY is concerned, they also have no way to retreat. In addition to the World Championship, this game is more related to the rebuilding of the confidence of their entire team.

The elimination of the regular season shattered the impetuousness brought about by their three consecutive championships in the spring, mid-season and intercontinental games, and also broke their belief in winning.

The so-called foundation does not lie in believing that you will win, but in believing that you can stand up even after you have experienced failure.

Crane, STR, and the former SKY have all had such experiences, and for this young and brand-new SKY, the current bubbling match is tantamount to a tribulation.

As an opponent in the bubbling match, AVI is also facing the same situation as SKY, especially Zhou He, as an ancient player who entered the professional arena at the same time as Chen Muyu, even before him, from TL to TLR, from peak to trough, he Finally, he had a second career in AVI, but getting older and older reminded him all the time that his career was coming to an end.

For the rest of his life, this may be the closest he will be to the World Championships in his life.

Mid laner Lan Ting debuted on the LPL stage at the beginning of last year, and was hailed as the hope of the new generation of mid laners. He may still be the most eye-catching new generation player this year.Even so, he still shined in this summer split.

For newcomers, the best stage to prove himself is undoubtedly the World Championship. This is the first time in his career that he is now close to the World Championship.

Compared with the two teammates, the jungler Su Yang who transferred from TLR to AVI together with Zhou He is not very noticeable. After joining the new team, his jungler style has changed a lot, and he is calm and old-fashioned like a The weather-beaten veteran doesn't have the spirit of a rookie at all.

This is also his battle of proof.

After MSI, Liu Handong's extremely aggressive style of play has become a topic that countless players talk about, and Liu Handong's research and defense has also become a problem that all teams cannot avoid. He defeated the opponent, but even against Liu Handong who was in poor form, he still failed to take advantage of the jungle.

Today SKY's starting jungler is Zhang Heng, which surprised many people. However, many teams with rotation lineups will hide their hands and let the substitutes play first, leaving a hole card. This is not unusual.

Kill them in the first round, and Liu Handong will come up in the second round.

This is the common view of the outside world, and only a few people in the circle know the real reason, and SKY is naturally clear about this.

Liu Handong's recent state is very bad!

After the review meeting, Mu Wanli was the first to adjust. It can be said that in the shortest time, he returned to the original state of being able to resist pressure for thousands of years and be as stable as an old dog. Xue Yunqi was a little nervous, But lately it has slowly started to stabilize.

Only Liu Handong.

After the review meeting, not only did his condition not improve, but it became more and more serious. He seemed to have lost his way completely, and he didn't know how to fight. He and Ren Fan had a big headache, but they couldn't find a quick solution for a while, so they could only let him adjust slowly.

Under such circumstances, the pressure on Zhang Heng, who was ordered in a critical situation, can be imagined. When he was on the plane, other people were either chatting, playing with their mobile phones or watching TV, and he was the only one sitting there in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. .

When getting off the plane, Lin Xuan thought he was under too much pressure, so he asked a question with concern, but this guy hesitated for a moment, deliberately slowed down, and waited to distance himself from the others before lowering his voice and saying: " Ask you something."

"Ok?"

Zhang Heng quickly looked around again, and then said seriously: "Do you think I can find a good wife in the future?"

Lin Xuan almost vomited blood. He thought he was worried about the game, but he was thinking about women.

Zhang Heng explained with some embarrassment: "Isn't it a little envious of you and Qianqian showing affection every day? I'm almost 25, and many classmates and children have graduated from kindergarten. It's time to think about something serious."

Lin Xuan said helplessly: "Don't worry, scumbags can usually meet good girls, and I am."

Zhang Heng laughed, "It seems to make sense, then I can rest assured."

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "Just kidding, a scumbag may meet a good girl, but he will definitely not be able to keep a good girl. People's hearts are fleshy, and anyone will be hurt. It is the right way to change your heart with your heart. Only those who make mistakes know better." If you make a mistake, you should know how to cherish it in the future.”

Although Zhang Heng is old, the most important years in his life have been playing games, and he doesn’t really meet many people. He plays games every day, or tries to save a girl who has lost her footsteps. In his free time, he spends time watching variety shows and TV with his girlfriend I haven't even drank much chicken soup from the Internet, and my understanding of life and life is not much better than that of high school students, and it is far from mature. Hearing Lin Xuan pouring chicken soup for him, let's think about this time The thought came, suddenly felt a sense of approval, nodded, and said seriously: "It makes sense."

Chicken soup for the soul may not be in line with reality, but at least it can make people work hard. Zhang Heng played very well in the training game in the afternoon, and Lin Xuan felt that his bowl of chicken soup was indispensible.

At 03:30 in the afternoon of the next day, the first round of the bubbling match started on time at the Wukesong Gymnasium.

Judging from the recent matches between the two teams, SKY's state is undoubtedly much worse, but given their previous record, no one dares to underestimate them. Although AVI suffered a setback in the playoffs, the outstanding performance in the regular season is always in the majority What impressed the audience was that most of the pre-match predictions were [-]-[-].

Including the predictions of the commentary and commentary seats, there is not much difference in the winning percentage of the two teams.

Before the game, there was a disagreement about the tactical arrangement, mainly in the first game. Ren Fan originally planned to choose a bot lane carry system that they played very proficiently, but Lin Xuan put forward different opinions on the spot.

This is no longer the version of the mid-season game. Let’s take an “outdated” lineup system. It’s not about falling behind. Can't play the same as the current version.

It's not time for SKY to rest on its laurels!
Zhang San proposed a vote with a show of hands, but Ren Fan's proposal was "lost" by an absolute disadvantage. According to regulations, he has the final decision as the head coach. If he wants to continue, everyone, including Lin Xuan, can only obey and cooperate, but Ren Fan I still chose to respect their ideas, and played the first game according to the current version.

The biggest change in this version is in the upper middle. One of the most important reasons is that Akali has been reworked. The new version of Akali has returned to the game, and it can be hit or dodged, directly disrupting the original ecological chain.

In addition, due to the relative weakness of the bottom lane, Ashe returned to the game, plus the mid laners Vel'Koz and Galio, who were brilliant in the LCK and LPL finals, and the top laner Urgot, and the MSI and Intercontinental games. Strong heroes are very different.

When they came to the scene and learned that AVI had chosen the red side, Zhang San and Ren Fan quickly made arrangements for the blue side in the first game.

Ice Puller, Ryze, Wine Barrel, grab Akali.

Probably because the action of the ice puller successfully confused AVI, making them think that SKY was going to use Akali as the mid laner, they defeated more sword demons who appeared in the upper unit now, but chose Galio.

SKY took Ashe and Tahm immediately, AVI unexpectedly showed the jungler Lee Sin, and Kai'Sa was chosen for the AD position.

In the second round of selection, SKY added jungler Xin Zhao and mid laner Lulu, while AVI selected support Soraka and top laner Urgot.

Before the game officially started, a pre-match interview about Lin Xuan was played live.

There are no questions from the director in the video, only his answer:
"When you lose, everything you say is like an excuse."

"So we're going to win."
