You promised a top lane tutorial, but you're just using Worlds as material for your videos?

Chapter 300 My success today is entirely due to my own hard work!
In the regular season group stage of the Summer Split, LGD was placed in Group B.

The other five teams in the same group as LGD.

They are RNG, OMG, NB, SNG, and JDG.
Of these five team names, two did not appear in this year's LPL Spring Split.

It's SNG and JDG.
SNG is generally referred to as the Suning team because its main financial backer is the Suning Group.

This team is the champion of this year's LSPL Spring Split.

Therefore, SNG was promoted directly from the secondary league to this year's LPL Summer Split.

As for JDG, it is actually the QG team from the Spring Split.

However, during this off-season, the QG team was acquired by JD.com.

The team naturally changed its name accordingly and was given the name JD.com.

The English abbreviation is JDG.
In terms of personnel, after the team's management changed, they didn't get involved much in the competition.

In terms of coaches and players, it's basically the same team as in the spring season.

After reviewing the group list.

Zhou Dian is certain that SNG and JDG were deliberately placed in the same group by the LPL officials.

It is said that the lottery is conducted randomly from the seed pool.

But things like drawing lots.

If they really wanted to manipulate the outcome, they would have to do it behind closed doors.

There are at least a dozen methods, if not twenty.

Because SNG and JDG are in different seed pools.

According to the rules, these two teams can be placed in the same group.

Therefore, these two teams must be in the same group.

the reason is simple.

These two teams are Suning and JD.com.

If they fight, wouldn't that be the LPL version of an "e-commerce war"?

LPL officials are definitely happy to create this kind of gimmick to generate more traffic.

Although there is a round of inter-group matches during the summer season regular season.

Even if these two teams are not in the same group.

These two teams will definitely face off once during the regular season.

but.

Since the authorities want to hype up the "e-commerce war".

Therefore, the timing of the start of this "e-commerce war" is also very important.

It may even be more important than the "e-commerce war" itself.

After all, it's both the SNG team and the JDG team.

They are not considered particularly popular teams at the moment.

Given the current popularity of both teams, the "e-commerce war" gimmick alone is insufficient.

It's not enough to attract a large enough audience.

The match between these two teams needs a bigger hype.

For example
The "e-commerce battle" between Suning and JD.com will be scheduled for June 618th!

When I saw that SNG and JDG were both in Group B.

Zhou Dian immediately realized that the two teams had been deliberately placed in the same group by the officials.

I also figured out something else.

That means there will definitely be a match between SNG and JDG on June 18th.

The schedule for this year's LPL Summer Split regular season has been released along with the group assignments for each team.

Zhou Dian opened the official website and found the match schedule.

Pull it down.

Let's look directly at the schedule for June 18th.

Sure enough, the third regular season match on June 18th was between SNG and JDG.
Then Zhou Dian noticed that June 18th was actually a Sunday.

Goodness, now it's even more necessary to organize this "e-commerce battle" on June 618th.

And the entire LPL Summer Split regular season.

The first three weeks are against teams in the same group.

June 18th marks the first week of the Summer Split regular season.

Therefore, we hope to see the "e-commerce war" between JD.com and Suning on June 18th.

It is imperative to put these two teams into the same group.

This way, the two teams can face off in the first week of the regular season.

My suspicions have been confirmed.

Zhou Dian scrolled the mouse wheel back through the schedule of the Summer Split regular season.

He also had a hypothesis that he wanted to verify.

The page on the computer screen scrolled up a few times before reaching the top.

Zhou Dian looked at the first line of the 17 LPL Summer Split regular season schedule.

The first thing that catches the eye is the start date of the Summer Split regular season.

Thursday, March 6th.

Then it's LGD vs JDG
Zhou Dian's second guess was also confirmed.

The official organizers really did schedule LGD's first regular season match of the Summer Split on the opening day of the Summer Split.

They completely disregarded the fact that LGD had completed the entire MSI Mid-Season Invitational.

LGD's players already had very little vacation time between the Spring and Summer Splits.

Now, let's give LGD another opening match.

Well, the already short holiday is going to be shortened by another three days.

Furthermore, considering that the team needs to get the players back early to prepare for the Summer Split, the team should at least be able to do so.

This means that LGD players will have a break during this off-season.

That's incredibly short.

Then look at the opponent in the opening match.

Zhou Dian knew that LGD was scheduled to play the opening match of the Summer Split, and JD Gaming was partly responsible for that.

LPL officials are responsible for arranging the match schedule.

They must have had JD.com handle the public relations!

Simply organizing an "e-commerce battle" on June 618th is not enough.

We need to take advantage of the fact that LGD just won this year's MSI championship and is at the peak of their popularity.

Playing the opening match of the Summer Split against LGD will allow us to capitalize on LGD's popularity.

JD.com really knows how to use advertising to drive traffic. They've just acquired a team, and they're already starting to squeeze every last drop of value out of it.

Who will make up for the few days of vacation I missed?
The period from late May to early June.

At the LGD team's base, only Zhou Dian remained from the League of Legends division.

The other teammates had already gone back to their hometowns or to some nice vacation destination to enjoy their rather short break.

Zhou Dian's decision to stay at the base was a true decision.

It's not that we just use the base as a place to sleep, and when we're not sleeping, we just hang out in Shanghai.

not at all!
Zhou Dian's schedule and daily routine are the same as when he was at the base during the Spring Split.

To put it bluntly, Zhou Dian hasn't really entered a vacation state.

The reason is also very simple.

Since the holiday is so short, why not just not take a vacation at all?

It would be better to use the time to prepare for the Summer Split.

Even without his teammates, he can prepare for the Summer Split on his own.

The main reason is that LGD spent most of May playing in MSI.

There was simply no time to study the version used in the Summer Split.

Now, many team members have returned to their teams and begun preparing for the Summer Split.

LGD is completely unfamiliar with the version of the game for the Summer Split.

If we wait until just before the Summer Split starts, and the team members have all returned to their base, before we begin studying the Summer Split version...

Then we can only study while playing matches, using matches as practice.

This inevitably leads to losing the initiative and falling behind others.

It's very likely that this will happen in the early to mid-stages of the Summer Split regular season.

Because of outdated understanding of the game version, we lost some games that we shouldn't have lost.

Zhou Dian certainly didn't want this to happen.

Regular season rankings affect playoff seeding, which is also very important.

He's aiming for the championship in the summer season.

One MSI championship is far from enough for Zhou Dian.

What he truly desires is this year's S-series championship.

He could win the Grand Slam for the entire year.

So, I'm not going to take a break during these few days of holiday.

Study the version used in the Summer Split carefully.

If my teammates don't perform well when the Summer Split starts because they haven't been familiar with or practiced the new version, then...

I have a greater chance of leading the team to victory.

I want to win the game, I want to win the championship.

How can we succeed without putting in our best efforts?

I, Zhou Dian, owe my success today entirely to my own hard work!
System, I want to unlock new abilities!
No joke, the day the team went on holiday, Zhou Dian had the idea of ​​drawing a new S-level ability.

To unlock new abilities, you naturally need enough interaction points.

However, Zhou Dian's current interaction points are not enough to draw an S-level ability.

He needs to release new instructional videos to generate some interaction.

As for the new teaching video content and the materials used...

Zhou Dian had already made up his mind on the day the MSI finals ended.

A few days before the holiday.

Zhou Dian was familiarizing himself with the new version during solo queue training.

They also created new instructional videos.

On the evening of May 31st, after reviewing the group assignments and schedule for this year's LPL Summer Split regular season...

Zhou Dian also opened D station and logged into his account, "Top Laner Ancestor".

He then posted an update, which served as a preview.

[A new tutorial video will be released tomorrow morning at 9 AM! I promised you!]

As soon as this post was published, the comment section quickly filled with many comments.

[Oh wow, Zhou Shen is finally updating his tutorial videos? It's been so long since he updated!]

[Indeed, it's been far too long. I thought Zhou Shen's content creator career was going to end!]

[Pah! What kind of eunuch is this? His words are so unpleasant to hear. This is called dying prematurely!]

【Uh, that sounds even less pleasant to hear!】

[Exactly, at least the eunuch was still alive. You come up with "died prematurely," it seems you'd be hoping Zhou Shenren would die!]

[Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, this is mine!]

[Zhou Shen said, "I promised you something before," but what did he promise us? I don't remember!]

[Scroll back to the previous post, a status update from this account before the start of MSI!]

[Zhou Shen said he'll be using Huni as material for a tutorial video during MSI!]

[So, it seems the tutorial video footage to be updated tomorrow will be one of the matches between LGD and SKT during MSI!]

[It should be it, but I don't know which show it is. I'm so excited!]

[I think it was the game in the group stage where Fiora crushed Jayce; Zhou Shen's plays in that game were pretty cool!]

[If we're talking about sheer coolness, isn't the second game of the MSI finals, where Camille outmaneuvered Huni's Fiora with all sorts of skillful maneuvers, even cooler?]

[I don't think it's very likely that I'll use it in either of these two games. Zhou Shen has made quite a few tutorial videos for Fiora and Camille, and they're all of very high quality. They're excellent examples, and it'll be hard to surpass them!]

That should be game three or four of the MSI finals, with either Gnar or Graves!

[To be honest, I want to see Graves, especially Zhou Shen's Graves in the last game of the MSI finals. It was so simple and straightforward, it seemed really easy to learn!]

Yes, and learning this should allow you to climb the ranks quickly!

[Please, Zhou Shen, don't make a tutorial on Graves top lane! I'm already fed up with all these toxic Graves junglers in ranked games, and now you have Graves top lane? Ugh, I'm seriously going to ban Graves every game to prevent my teammates from picking him!]

Don't worry, tomorrow's lesson definitely won't be a Graves top lane tutorial!

【Why? 】

Because you can't learn it!

[You guys actually think Graves top lane is simple and straightforward, and that farming minions is easy? Farming is a talent. You guys, even in a custom game, you probably couldn't farm as many minions as Zhou Shen in a match. What are you even trying to learn Graves top lane for?]

Indeed, we shouldn't casually say that players only know how to farm, because many players don't even understand how to farm properly!

I suspect you're implying something.

[I didn't, I didn't, shut up!]
