Chapter 172 [Going to msi]

The training room was as quiet as a chicken.

The head coach's words were hard for the players to accept for a while.

——Even if you can't win this MSI championship, you can't win the game with the team's best system.

the reason is simple.

Riot Games will go all out against the system of the team that won the MSI.

And based on this tone, we will finally confirm the tone and version answers in the general direction of the Summer Split and even the World Championship.

if

ig relies on the "four words" written by Chun Li to win the mid-season championship, so even if it can enter the World Championship.

In the end, I couldn't make it to the finals.

turn out to be

I have been studying the MSI opponent for almost two weeks, but I actually made a mistake?

Li Nian thought about the coach's plan.

Whether it is skt from s7, rng from s8, or g2 from s9, they have won the championships in all major competitions.

The results of it?

At the beginning of the summer season, a fist and a big knife were swung down, not only cutting off your Rendu lineage, but also taking your ring away.

While the players were thinking hard, KKoma left the coaching desk and walked to the tactical blackboard.

"msi will implement version 8.8, this version."

“It will still be a bottom lane-focused version!”

"The operational version was strangled in the cradle by fists as early as the spring split. The only choice we can make is the play style of our opponents in the spring finals!"

Li Nian nodded.

S8's rng on msi is indeed unique among the 14 participating teams, and they also happen to have a thorough understanding of the current version.

Stealing from friends?

Li Nian was excited just thinking about it.

A dead Taoist friend will never die but a poor Taoist.

The rest should be left to Uzi to worry about.

"kkoma is taking the next step with the banner!"

Li Nian was shocked and recalled the purpose of Leehom working overtime like crazy in the Spring Finals to study RNG's Kai'Sa tactical system.

It turns out that it’s going to be a double blow!

As expected of an old fox, he is already studying his opponents in the S game.

By the time I finished analyzing the tactical ideas and requirements, it was already close to 12 o'clock in the morning.

Not only did the team members not lose money, but they became even more excited.

Especially Jack.

"Brother, are you also the core of the tactics?" He slurped the hot and sour noodles, and the heat flowed from the chopsticks to the computer, "Brother Nian, remember to come to the bottom lane and be my dog."

He patted Baolan who was sitting next to him again, "Xiaobao, from now on, my brother will be the male prostitute that you have to protect with your life."

Bao Lan shook off his claws with a wave of his hand and patted the team uniform with a look of disgust on his face, "It's better not to die suddenly than anything else."

"Others are playing hide-and-seek, but you are playing snake!"

Before Shiba Inu could refute, Li Nian interrupted, "Don't bet on the flash of your career. You have to save this flash."

Jack groaned twice.

"Okay, you two have begged me, so let's do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jack felt like he had two ponytails on his head and turned into the real Chun-Li with twin ponytails.

After eating the midnight snack, I finished my exercise.

Li Nian returned to the dormitory and played with his mobile phone.

At this time, the public opinion on ig on the Internet was booming.

After s7 won the championship, the confidence of the lpl audience was gradually built up. At least now, they are already in the first division in the world.

Check out the Resistance Bar

The topic that sticks to the top is of course the popular one, 'How to evaluate ig's possible performance in MSI?'

"The MSI only needs to look at the LPL and LCK. The other divisions are here to accompany me throughout the whole process."

"Predict a wave and end the game 3:0."

"Haha, do you think kz is a fool? Our R emperor's strength has soared, killing lck explosively. Even Guan Zeyuan once said that with ig's current strength, I can at most be at a loss with kz."

"What time is it open?"

"Stop spending! Five five open!"

What followed was an endless scolding battle, and Li Nian quickly retreated in order to purify his eyes.

Without changing tactics.

Maybe kz is really true, but now that we have to change our tactical thinking and playing style in just ten days, we are really anxious.

But, KKoma is very considerate.

They have a full schedule of training matches.

But that's it.

Both rng and edg teams are on vacation, and they will all go to Paris by then.

The championship teams from Japan and Vietnam, which are relatively close to them, will participate in the qualifying rounds again. When ig took two days off, these wild card divisions had already arrived in Berlin and started preparing for the competition.

The delay between the two places is too high, and it is impossible to schedule a training match.

Then coach Leehom relied on his own ability to crazyly invite skt and kz to play training matches.

But kz is a little bit resistant to this appointment.

Because they both regard each other as their biggest rivals in this mid-season championship, and frequent training matches will expose their skills and tactics and give the other side's coaching staff room to study and develop.

The result is that everyone either uses the outdated lineups and old tactics from the playoffs in a very tacit understanding, or they practice some troublesome swing lineups, but do not draw out all their cards.

and

They even began to suspect that ig deliberately messed up in training matches.

Lost all ten games!

The team members were all too aggrieved to speak out.

They all held their breath in their hearts.

He threatened that when we are released, we will kill you and turn everything upside down!

Under such repeated torture, the group embarked on a journey to Berlin, Germany.

The group took a group photo with the team flag unfurled at Pudong International Airport, boarded the plane, and began an extraordinary flight that lasted more than ten hours.

I sat there for more than ten hours straight.

The group was exhausted. Not to mention checking in for the trip, even asking them to drag a suitcase felt like it was filled with lead.

"Are you there yet?"

Song Xiuyan's soft voice came from the other end of the phone, "There is a fashion show recently, so you can go shopping with me after the game is over."

"Victoria's Secret? If so, I will go. If not, just ask Yu Shuang to accompany you."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment.

"Hey Hey hey"

"Actually, if you want to see it, I can."

Li Nian raised his eyebrows and quickly replied, "You're trying to stir up trouble, Song Xiuyan! If you're serious, go ahead if you have time!"

"Great."

Li Nian pursed his lips when he heard the cheers on the phone.

actually

Agreeing with her ‘yes’ seems to be a good idea!

The next afternoon.

In the training room built by Riot Games, IG held its first general meeting after arriving in Berlin.

"There are a total of 6 teams in the main stage of this mid-season tournament."

The end of the qualifying rounds in Berlin also announced that the MSI group stage is about to kick off.

"Among them, ig, kz, tl and fnc are guaranteed to be eliminated in the main draw, and the rest are the LMS champion Flash Wolves who succeeded Shoulei in the qualifying stage and the evs team from the Vietnam Division."

The result is no different from the 2017 Mid-Season Invitational. The five major regions plus the strongest wild card, the Vietnam Division, make up all the teams in the main stage.

‘Six teams will play a double round-robin bo1, each team will play 10 group matches, and the last four teams with the best records will advance to the knockout stage.’

Although this is not the first time for Leehom to participate in the Mid-Season Invitational, all the players are the junior brothers of MSI.

"It is worth noting that this year's MSI has changed the rules!" KKoma cleared his throat, "The team that wins the first place in the group stage will have the right to choose its opponents first in the knockout rounds, and can confidently choose its opponents in the third and fourth places."

Shiba Inu asked, "What's the point of this? The third and fourth ranks are just cannon fodder, and their strength is indeed 8 or 8."

Li Nian shook his head.
