You actually want me to...

But when he returned to the base the next morning and opened the door to the training room to find that someone was already inside, he was completely dumbfounded.

This point.

He was able to get up because he had a habit of jogging in the morning. Why were the others waking up so early to train? Could it be that someone had been provoked by someone else while playing ranked games last night? Just as he was about to push the door open, a hand suddenly reached out and pulled him back sharply, forcibly removing him from the training room.

"Holy crap! Who? Oh... Coach, what brings you up so early too?"

"No, I'm just keeping an eye on that guy in the room. He didn't sleep all night." At this point, White Crescent couldn't help but chuckle and continued, "He got to meet the factory manager last night, and the manager gave him some interaction and encouragement."

"and then?"

"Then I just happened to come in and mentioned that we were going to play EDG next, and he ended up like this." After saying that, White Crescent shrugged helplessly, as if it really had nothing to do with him.

Coaches can't stop professional players from suddenly getting carried away like this.

Rashly trying to dissuade them may only provoke a young person's rebellious mentality. You can only go along with them and wait until they are tired and their anger has subsided a bit before giving them further psychological counseling.

Otherwise, why is being a coach so difficult?

It's not enough for you to just understand the version, know how to draft, and be able to collect information. You also have to take care of the players' emotions, provide them with guidance, and occasionally bear the pressure from your superiors. When necessary, you also have to know how to give them motivational speeches and believe in your players. In short, you have to treat the players like your own children and use them like animals.

Perhaps the noise outside the door drew Haro's attention back. During the short time the two were chatting, Haro finally put down his mouse, yawned, and prepared to go back to sleep.

"What...what about the practice match this afternoon?"

"I had a physical training class scheduled for this afternoon, but no practice match, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to let him torture himself like this. Alright, the coach came at noon and you took the others to class. I'm also a bit exhausted." Having finally found someone to take over, White Crescent threw down her work and swayed towards her room.

Roland glanced at the ashtray full of cigarette butts and the opened snacks on the table, smacked his lips, and began to clean up the mess.

Unlike the entire year of S10.

During S10, Roland spent half a year securing his starting position and another half a year focusing on learning how to lead. White Crescent took on many responsibilities that were his responsibility, so Roland had no concept of them last year and only began to gain recognition from his teammates around the time of the World Championship.

The S11, with its white crescent shape, gradually revealed these tasks.

Take Abu's comment on Zhihu as an example: A typical esports coach needs to be patient and highly dedicated. He not only needs to study the game content, but also put a lot of effort into teaching methods. He not only needs to teach according to students' aptitude, but also help the players become better and more well-rounded. At the same time, he needs to learn from each other.

It seems quite simple.

But anyone who has ever taught a new person or trained a new colleague as a team leader knows just how damn headache these things can be in practice.

Managing people is much harder than managing tasks.

As the team captain, it's their responsibility to share this burden. In this light, the coaches of each team can truly be considered lone warriors.

For TES, this period of EDG was a time of mixed feelings.

Top laner Flandre, a former teammate who recently parted ways, is someone who knows exactly what kind of mess he's made of because he used to have him. Given how slick this guy is, Roland on TES would be grinning from ear to ear, but on the opposing team... well, unless there's a really good chance, he really doesn't even have the desire to gank.

Because this guy is just too experienced.

Jungle player jiejie is an old acquaintance of Haro.

Skipping over the mid and support roles, these two veterans have been around for so many years, and no one should be unfamiliar with them. They are the duo who are the backbone of the team when they are in form, and the traitors when they are not.

The key point is Viper, the AD carry. There's not much to say about him. Any ADC that EDG has chosen is bound to be good. Even the generally considered weakest Zygard has had his moments of brilliance and has pursued Ruler.

On paper, EDG is a team that is very effective against TES in terms of both style and play.

However, from a metaphysical perspective, when everyone thought that EDG's style was a great counter to TES, according to EDG's first law, he had actually already begun to be countered by TES.

Whether it's a win or a loss is completely impossible to determine.

I suggest that it be grouped with "Catching the Sea - The Choice Between Breaking and Continuing", "Fried Yogurt - Roll or Roll, That Is the Question", "Paint - Rolling, Shaking, the Magic of Color", and "Red and Blue Battle - The Victory Battle of Red Ball and Basketball" as the five major casinos on Bilibili (lol).

Integration: Chapter 101: So, what is the price?

A few days later, in a certain LPL arena that never changed, JKL was looking at Roland's hands with a look of disgust, while his body was moving further and further away from him.

"Damn it, can't you just wash your hands properly? Aren't you disgusted by this sticky mess?"

"I dislike it."

"Then why are you still playing?"

"You don't understand, this is the joy of a rubber maker."

Because professional players must maintain their passion for the game, they often cannot openly play other PC games. However, they have a lot of spare time on weekdays, so they naturally have to find other hobbies.

Roland's hobby in this life is to try his best to fulfill the wishes of his previous life.

In his past life, he was poor and single. The most cost-effective form of entertainment he could find was buying things from "Glue City." He bought a Qubeley and spent more than half a year assembling it. After finishing it, he didn't want to assemble anything else. It was time-consuming and cost-effective, but it was a bit hard on his hands.

To be honest, Roland has had quite a busy time these past few days.

These past few days have been fragmented rubber-playing sessions, but a few days ago it was even more amazing. He actually managed to chat with a phone scammer for half an hour, just to mess with him. It was originally just for fun, but because of his perverse sense of humor, he answered the scammer's call, which resulted in him receiving more than a dozen calls from different police stations throughout the following day.

Do you think that's all?

If you think that way, you're really too naive. The next day, there's even something called "police report," and then a dozen or so calls come in asking if he's satisfied with the service.

After all that, the scammers didn't really do anything to him; instead, the calls of concern and well-wishes almost drove him crazy.

"Alright, get serious. Today is the battle to prove Ha Huang."

"Oh, I almost forgot?" Recalling Haro's recent efforts, Roland suddenly remembered and belatedly looked over at him. He saw that although Haro had obvious dark circles under his eyes, the light in his eyes was particularly bright, showing that he was already full of anticipation for today's match.

Seemingly noticing his teammates' attention, Haro smiled and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

Make sense.

If we're talking about having any special feelings towards EDG, that's not really realistic. After all, RW has faced EDG quite a few times during their three years together. It's just that their teammates at the time generally couldn't keep up, so they gradually lost the will to compete.

But it is different now.

The strength of TES lies in its formidable roster on paper. Whether they will actually malfunction in reality is another matter; at least for now, they are under control.

With teammates whose skill level is no less than EDG's, Haro naturally has the ability to compete with EDG.

In today's match, he wasn't trying to prove how strong he was. He just wanted that man to know that even though he was no longer with EDG, he would still be the most suitable person to inherit that man's will.

LPL viewers had been eagerly anticipating today's crown prince battle and gathered in front of the live stream early on.

Talented, ridiculed by fans, burdened with criticism, switched teams, spent three years carrying the team alone, and then returned three years later with a bunch of genius teammates to settle scores—they're all too familiar with this plot!

The other day it was the Ninja World War, and now it's time to fight the "horse" of the heavens, right?

[Here he comes! We eagerly await Xiao Chen (Haro's surname is Chen) to keep his three-year appointment.]

[Wow, if Haro is the main character, then who is the old man?]

That must be Clearlove, it just got stolen.

Goodness, according to this logic, your Xiao Xun'er might not be the version from that certain forum moderator website~

The authorities have put in a lot of effort to prepare for today's "revenge" feast.

The eldest prince, dressed in a suit, stood tall at the commentary booth, ready to waver in his stance as a weather vane; the second prince stood in the middle of the TES team, exuding an air of refined confidence as he chatted and laughed; the third and fourth princes gathered at the EDG team, listening intently to their father's teachings with solemn expressions.

When the director captured all three shots and played them together in the center of the big screen, the live stream chat exploded with comments, instantly filling the entire page with "666".

"The official team really knows how to create something interesting." Roland glanced at the large screen not far away and couldn't help but give the director a look of approval for his ingenious reaction.

"It's alright, but this kind of gimmick really does generate traffic like it's been blown away by the wind; the reality isn't that exaggerated."

“Then you’re wrong.” Hearing this, Roland pointed in a direction, indicating that JKL should look at Haro’s grip on the keyboard. The peripherals that Haro used to take such good care of had now had their outer protective layer torn off without JKL’s knowledge.

This shows that his inner world was not as peaceful as he appeared outwardly.

Is such that.

It's like when everyone plays games together on a regular basis.

Playing games with friends: giving up.

I found my friend was on the opposing team: Bearing the burden of the Naruto's fate, I cannot lose!

That's roughly my state of mind.

Shortly after both teams' players were ready, the match between TES and EDG finally began. In the first game, EDG was on the blue side and had the priority to ban and pick.

First round of bans:

EDG: Gragas, Olaf, Hecarim

TES: Udyr, Renekton, Lillia

There's not much to say. Everyone has banned all the strong junglers in the current patch. The remaining T1 heroes will be a battle of hero pool depth between the two sides. In this respect, Haro undoubtedly has the advantage. Moreover, banning four junglers forces the opponent to pick the jungler first, which allows TES to pick two OP heroes in the current patch in the first and second picks.

One round of PICK:

EDG picked Nidalee, and with almost all T0 junglers banned, Nidalee was undoubtedly the best choice. It not only fits jiejie's champion pool, but is also very suitable for creating tempo in this version where junglers have a lot to do.

TES countered by touching Orianna and Thresh.

It's not that Roland doesn't want to do something fun, but playing professionally is different from playing ranked games. You really have to respect the current version. Although the Mythic item version has increased the pace and damage a lot, the overall game pace is dragged out because there are too many variables that can be used to create opportunities, such as elemental dragons, vanguards, and Baron. Each of them can be used to create a lot of opportunities.

Under these conditions, unless you ban several late-game AD champions in the draft phase, the bot lane support will have very few options if almost all AD champions are picked.

Thresh is the highest priority hero among them.

In JKL's champion pool, this champion can be paired with Aphelios to form a Ravenous Hammer, with Kalista to form a Poké Ball Master, with Draven to form a boosting combo, or even with Jinx to create an ultimate, invincible late-game champion.

To put it simply, this is a composite image!

There's not much to say. EDG's second and third picks are Viktor and Tristana. Viktor is chosen because Azir was nerfed in this patch and isn't strong enough. He's playable in the mid lane, but there aren't many late-game carry AP champions left that can be played in the mid-game, so he's a second-best option.

As for the small cannon.

Based on my personal experience, during the laning phase, if Tristana jumps into Aphelios or Jinx, Aphelios is completely helpless unless he has a red and white weapon. As for Jinx, she's basically dead; her damage in the early game is like scratching a thorn.

TES added another player, Jinfu, as their third pick.

Second round of bans:

Ban Moon Man, Kalista, Ryle, and Minotaur.

EDG believes Draven can be left to his own devices. The current version of Draven is not the Draven that received buffs at Worlds. Without particularly superior attributes, catching axes is a major limitation. As long as there is enough crowd control, they are not too afraid of his performance in the game.

As expected, TES picked Draven as their fourth pick.

Today's match was a comeback victory for Haro, so the fifth pick was definitely reserved for the jungler as a sign of respect. This is why the first draft was so meticulous, paving the way for him.

As a consequence, during the first round of bans, the top laner position was practically handed over to Conter, the Flandre player.

When playing against Sett in the top lane, the best matchup is against long-range champions like Lucian, Vayne, and Jayce; the standard counter-matchup is Renekton and Garen, but Renekton is already banned; as for the lane-mixing playstyle, it's champions like Volibear, Ornn, and Mordekaiser; special matchups involve unconventional champions like Wukong, Kennen, and Jax.
