Chapter 11: I thought it was just online banter.
Chapter 11: I thought it was just online banter.
Jiang Xia took a deep breath.
Strangely enough, I was actually a little nervous.
But actually, everyone in the car except for IMP and Eimy is a bit like that.
IMP is used to being carefree and easygoing, so his personality doesn't put much pressure on him during matches, regardless of his opponents. Of course, he might still face some challenges when playing against Uzi or Deft.
Eimy, on the other hand, has been getting cocky lately because of his good training results and constant easy baskets.
Thinking to myself:
Just a lowly Condi, he thinks he's something special just because he got lucky and snagged a few dragons.
It's not like I haven't tried to steal before.
Of course, he wouldn't dare say those words aloud.
Otherwise, Pyl will give me another round of mockery in that exaggerated tone...
...........
We arrived backstage at the venue.
Guan Zeyuan spotted Knight immediately, the prodigy mid-laner from LGD recently, the successor to GodV.
Speaking of Wei Shen, he really felt it was a pity that he stopped playing.
And this child.
Wow, he looks so young and inexperienced, isn't he just a junior high school student? Can he really play in the LPL?
It seems LGD is still so arrogant. Even the most talented kid needs to practice in the secondary league.
Just as he knew, IG signed a talented AD carry named Jackeylove in March, and they still had to let him develop his skills first.
Bringing them directly to the LPL, I guess only LGD could pull that off.
I also took a look at LGD's so-called "King of Coaches," and he was only about 20 years old.
He simply couldn't understand why a 20-year-old Korean Challenger player, who had the qualifications to become a professional player, wouldn't choose to pursue a professional career and enjoy the spotlight.
Wasting talent to become a dispensable coach?
pity.
Guan Zeyuan smacked his lips, regretting that Jiang Xia's talent wasn't in his own hands.
Otherwise, who would bother to be this commentator?
We arrived backstage.
Jiang Xia said to Knight, "He (Xi Ye) will most likely be playing LeBlanc. Should we deal with it?"
After a few seconds, I saw that Knight was still hesitating.
He said directly:
"Forget it, let's not ban it. Syndra should be able to handle it."
Knight nodded, his left hand clenching tighter.
Jiang Xia did it on purpose; he had to make Knight feel the pressure before the match even started.
He really hoped Knight would say those words himself, but he didn't.
He also gave Eimy some instructions.
Then Jiang Xia and Tabe talked about paying attention to the records on the field later, otherwise they would forget the details when reviewing the game.
IMP says whatever comes to mind.
"Coach, you're so serious, why don't you go pro?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned to look at them.
They were curious too.
Before this, I had never seen such a dedicated, responsible, and highly professional coach.
I've never seen anyone try to convince a player by having them engage in a solo match.
He's only in his early twenties; he could totally be their teammate.
"Maybe I'll get tired of being a coach and become your teammate. I'll definitely lead you to the S-series championship."
Jiang Xia jokingly skipped over the topic.
Because I've tried being a competitor, and I lost utterly...
To my surprise, I received a system notification for just one sentence.
Eimy felt a surge of anticipation; 66 points added...
Jiang Xia was stunned: 666, he must be the king of the jungle.
the other side.
For the first time, WE's coach Noon sensed the tension in his coach.
There's nothing I can do. The opposing coach is a Challenger player in the Korean server, and what about me?
Platinum trophy in the Chinese server...
Oh no, I'm going to be put on a gap year by the coach, how embarrassing.
He just doesn't understand. It's obvious that most domestic coaches these days only know how to play the game; they're all just talking theory.
Everyone knew the unspoken agreement.
So why do you think you deserve to be a king?
Then there's Tabe, a former world runner-up, on the coaching staff.
What if the requirements for becoming a coach are raised in the future?
I'll just rot you all, damn it!
"Which coach should we ban?" Zero, the support player, asked.
"Ban them if you're targeting them; the mage assassin is playing pretty well."
Xi Ye said confidently, "No need. If he dares to play like that, I can make him lose."
957: "President Su is awesome."
"It's not stressful playing against a newbie." Condi winked at Xiye.
"Don't underestimate him, he's very talented."
You can feel it a little bit in training matches.
No one took Xi Ye's words to heart.
Everyone thinks that Xi Ye, that scoundrel, is just showing off again.
You're just setting your opponent up first, so your performance will stand out even more, right?
........
Pingxiang, Cloud Internet Cafe.
"Go LGD! If they win, the entire internet fee will be free!"
Wang Shuang, a businessman from out of town, read the "GG" sign at the entrance.
LGD fans said that it's really rare to see them offline.
Pushing open the door, I found the internet cafe packed. Apart from the computer seats, all the seats were occupied, and most people were standing.
Following everyone's gaze, the opening ceremony of the LPL 2016 Summer Split was being played on a large screen in the center of the internet cafe.
The area around the internet cafe was plastered with banners cheering for LGD and signs encouraging Knight.
Su Xiaoche looked at the packed internet cafe and the lively atmosphere.
I felt very happy and thought I really had a good business sense.
The internet cafe was packed with customers with ease; their revenue from selling water and snacks alone was staggering.
Sure enough, learning from Brother Jiang was the right thing to do.
In this way, if LGD loses, they can still make money from the internet fees; if they win, they won't lose anything.
You can also play GG for free.
Hehehe, that's so me!
Of course, she still hopes Brother Jiang wins QAQ...
"Today was Kid's LPL debut. I really didn't expect that a professional player could come out of our small town."
"What's even more outrageous is that the boss, Brother Jiang, went to become a coach for LGD. It turns out he was the commentator who made the videos. He's really a hidden talent."
"Why doesn't he go pro? It's a waste for him to be a coach."
"How do you think you can beat WE?"
"We'll win, brothers! We believe in Brother Jiang and Brother Kid!"
"LGD will win! They will take the championship!"
Wang Shuang was a little confused. How... did she win the championship?
"Wow, why are these all LGD fans?"
So... this is the Optimistic Family's offline headquarters?
I couldn't help but ask the person next to me.
"Bro, I didn't know you LGD fans were this optimistic offline. I thought it was just online banter."
"??? What LGD fans? We're all cheering for the kid and Brother Jiang."
Wang Shuang: ? ? ?
After the explanation, Wang Shuang understood.
It turns out that two talented individuals emerged from this small internet cafe.
On the screen, the camera panned across Knight backstage and Jiang Xia beside him, and he felt a strong curiosity about the child.
He was even more puzzled by the boss next to him, who was capable but willing to be a coach.
So Wang Shuang took out his phone, took a picture, and posted it online.
Brothers, we've stumbled upon a hidden paradise! LGD's new mid-laner and coach actually came from a small internet cafe.
After reading the whole story, the forum members clicked their tongues in agreement.
The atmosphere at this internet cafe is really good.
[I'm a little touched. I can tell these people are genuinely cheering for us, but I'm a WE fan, so LGD, go to hell!]
Me too. I hope LGD loses, but I also hope the mid laner doesn't lose his lane and doesn't disappoint the team.
[Fighting Xiye won't be that easy.]
Wang Shuang: [But the people at this internet cafe seem very confident in the kid, saying they've beaten him in every internet cafe in Pingxiang without ever meeting a match.]
[What's the use? Which pro player didn't have no rivals before their debut, but their eyes instantly become clear once they step onto the stage?]
That's true, but let's wait and see. As long as we don't get too harshly criticized, we can generally support it for now.
[You guys are so kind, I'm so touched.]
