What is a wandering mid laner?

Lin Ran was moved by the last comment.

At this moment, they finally left the territory of Sao Paulo, and the bus drove onto the intercity expressway. The road conditions were much better than those in the city, at least the vehicle was no longer violently bumping and shaking.

Xiaotian on the side opened his mouth slightly, and he had already fallen asleep.

The air-conditioning in the car was very strong, and Lin Ran felt his hands and feet stiff after being inactive for a long time. He rubbed his fingers to adjust the wind direction of the air-conditioning above his head.

Suddenly he thought of something and took out a black hoodie from his bag.

Su Cheng asked him to bring this dress, and it finally came in handy at this time.

Putting on long-sleeved clothes, putting on a hat and lowering the seat, Lin Ran lay back and closed his eyes to rest.

Five hours later, everyone finally arrived in Rio de Janeiro.

Lin Ran was awakened by the whispering voices of people around him, and he took off his dead earphones.

"The scenery outside is quite nice, do you want to take some photos?" Guo Hao was discussing with them.

Lin Ran opened the curtains, and in the distance, the long bridge meanders and flies over both sides of the bay. Under the late night lights, it looks like a fiery crouching dragon.

The moonlight poured down, sparkling on the vast Atlantic Ocean, and huge sea ships sailed past the sea from time to time, and small islands of different shapes in twos and threes appeared and disappeared under the beating of the waves and tides.

On the other side of the road is Monte Cristo.

Under the light, the statue of Jesus under the black night appears taller and more eye-catching.

He looked down and stretched his arms, as if protecting the city of Rio below the mountain.

"This is the 14-kilometer Niteroi Bridge, and there is a statue of Christ behind it, isn't it spectacular?" Guo Hao couldn't wait, and asked Wen Sen to act as an interpreter to direct the driver to stop.

Behind them followed the buses of the other three teams, and everyone stopped in tacit agreement after seeing this magnificent scene.

More than 20 team members got out of the car one after another to breathe fresh air.

The water vapor of the sea breeze was hot and dry, so Lin Ran quickly took off his hoodie.

"Let's take a group photo!" Guo Hao directed several teammates and Vincent to get together.

They stood leaning against the railing, with the brightly lit Niteroi Bridge behind them.

In the distance ahead is the statue of Jesus on Monte Cristo.

The SKT players on the side couldn't help exclaiming when they saw the magnificent bridge, and took out their mobile phones to take pictures together.

Lee Sang Hyuk was chatting with his teammates, and by the way, he twisted his waist and moved his body.

Bang seemed to tell a cold joke that was not very cold. The surrounding SKT players were expressionless, but Faker couldn't help laughing.

Then twist the waist and twist it up.

"Hiss..." Lee Sang Hyuk showed a painful expression, and he covered his waist and remained silent.

Everyone in YM witnessed this scene and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Perkz on the other side laughed especially loudly.

Fortunately, Lee Sang Hyuk's waist was fine, and kkoma helped him move left and right and then he returned to normal.

After a delay at the Niteroi Bridge, it was almost twelve o'clock in the morning when they checked into the hotel they were staying at.

Guo Hao discussed with the Lightning Wolves coach Steak, and the two teams went out for a supper together.

There are about [-] Chinese in Rio, so there must be authentic Chinese restaurants, but as shown by the Niteroi Bridge, Rio is too big.

The Chinese people live in scattered places, without a constant flow of customers, and there are very few local Chinese restaurants. Now you can't even find Yonghe Soymilk.

Nightlife in Brazil is full of dangers. Fortunately, the Grand Hyatt Hotel that Riot booked for them is located in a wealthy area, without slums around, and the security conditions are relatively good, so there are still many barbecue restaurants that are not closed at night.

The two teams found a nearby barbecue restaurant to have a meal. Lin Ran watched his teammates enjoy the meal, and he didn't dare to go back to the hotel alone—the reminders from Lin Mingdong and Su Cheng were still ringing in his ears, he was afraid of encountering robbers .

Lightning Wolves and YM quickly established a strong friendship. Guo Hao and Lightning Wolves coach Steak are almost brothers, and White Crescent on the side has been watching them with vigilant and dangerous eyes.

Kasa and Shiba Inu seemed to have the same interest, and they got together and looked at their mobile phones without saying a few words, muttering something that everyone didn't understand.

After dawdling until two o'clock in the middle of the night, everyone just checked out and returned to the hotel. Lin Ran took a shower, and without caring about admiring the sea view outside the window, he dried his hair and lay down on the bed.

Lin Ran was exhausted all the way, and fell asleep as soon as his head touched the soft pillow.

Chapter 238: Let's Swing Together

Lin Ran had a full sleep, and when he woke up, the sky was already bright.

Xiaotian seemed to have left the balcony door open last night, and the curtains were blown by the morning wind. The hot and dry air in Rio was intertwined with the cold air of the air conditioner in the house, making people quite uncomfortable.

Lin Ran got out of bed rubbing his arms that had been caught in the ice and fire, ignored the bastard who was still sleeping soundly, opened the curtains and stepped onto the balcony, and closed the door behind him.

The specifications of the Rio Hotel are much higher than those in Sao Paulo. The large balcony helps Lin Ran to easily see the blue-green Atlantic Ocean not far away, and the lagoon view is very magnificent.

Lin Ran sat on the deck chair on the balcony and tried his best to look far away, relaxing his body.

The waves slammed against the coast, gulls circling for food at low altitude, the rising sun reflected the golden sand, and several Brazilian teenagers ran past in a row, bouncing soccer balls.

After Lin Ran relaxed for about a quarter of an hour, he went back to his room to wash up, and was ready to rush to the training room of the hotel.

He has to hurry up and practice, and there are still 4 days before the semi-finals.

Since the mid-season championship game is held between the spring and summer games, the schedule is very dense. The final will be held the day after the semi-finals, and there will be no time adjustment at that time.

When Lin Ran wore the team uniform and opened the door to the training room, White Crescent and Doom were already sitting there discussing something in a low voice, and the map of the Summoner's Canyon hanging in front of them had been messed up by the markers in their hands.

They are still holding tablet computers in their hands, playing SKT game video.

Doom wiped off the ink on the whiteboard, then placed five magnets representing SKT players on the whiteboard, and sat there with White Crescent to analyze the movements and purposes of SKT players.

Their goal must be the finals, and the imaginary enemy is naturally SKT, which has stronger hard power.

The Flash Wolves are known as the vanguard of the BO1 against South Korea, but the shortcomings of the BO5 and the South Korean team are still quite obvious-their personal strength is far behind.

White Crescent studies SKT first, and if Flash Wolves enter the finals unexpectedly, it will be good news for them.

After all, this opponent is much easier to deal with than SKT.

"Would you like to go outside to play on the beach?" The door of the training room was pushed open, and people arrived before they heard.

As soon as he heard it, he knew it was Lin Weixiang. He put his hands on Lin Ran's shoulders thoughtlessly and diligently, and kneaded them vigorously.

"No, no," Lin Ran waved his hand, "I don't have much time, and it's not too late to play after winning the championship."

In 4 days, they had to prepare for the BO5 of the two teams. Lin Ran wished he didn't even eat, so he couldn't care less about going out to play.

Xiaotian, who just walked into the training room, seemed a little moved.

"If we go out to play and lose to G2 in the semi-finals, I'm afraid we will be whipped to death by domestic netizens for a whole year."

Lin Ran reminded.

Xiaotian looked at Lin Weixiang and thought of the anti-bar carnival night after VN's death roll.

He shuddered.

"I'm not going, I'm not going," Suantou Wangba quickly calmed down, "You and Tie Shao go play."

Lin Weixiang asked around, and happily pulled Liu Qingsong, and the two ran to the beach wearing sunglasses, having fun like two huskies.

During the four days, they spent the rest of the time in the training room except for shooting fist promotional videos, pre-match interviews and venue rehearsals and leaving the hotel for a day.

Everyone in YM had the same idea in their hearts—since they sacrificed their vacation after the Spring Split and traveled all the way across half the world to come here, there is absolutely no reason to go back empty-handed.

On the afternoon of May 5th, everyone in YM left the hotel and took a bus to the semi-final venue - the Rio Olympic Stadium.

The 2014 Brazil World Cup and the 2016 Rio Olympics were held here, with a maximum capacity of [-] spectators.

A veritable giant stadium.

The speed of the bus slowed down when it was two kilometers away from the venue.

The streets were blocked, and there were all kinds of cars around, and the sound of the horns lingered in the bus through the glass windows.

For a while, Lin Ran thought he had arrived at Brother Ah San's territory.

"It's all going to the stadium, we have to wait for a while." Guo Hao took a look and knew that he couldn't make it through in a short time.

"They're all here to watch the game?" Jin Gong opened the curtains and looked out the window, "Isn't this too exaggerated?"

Outside the window, many Brazilians took out their mobile phones and took pictures of the bus with the fist logo. With excited smiles on their faces, they pointed and said something to the bus.

"There are only two subway lines in the entire city of Rio, and they are all concentrated in the northern area," Vincent, who was sitting in the front row, hung his camera on his neck. Blocking."

The Brazil division is similar to the Vietnam division. Although the level of professional players is poor, the enthusiasm of the audience for e-sports is extremely high.

In their view, the MSI semi-finals are quite high-level e-sports competitions, which are much higher than the level of the local league in Brazil. The audience is naturally enthusiastic.

"But it's not a big problem." Wen Sen picked up the camera and pointed at the traffic outside the window and pressed the shutter button. "When I was planning the itinerary, I had already reserved the time for the traffic jam."

The 10-kilometer road from the hotel to the stadium took an hour, and everyone in YM entered the Rio Olympic Stadium at the last moment.

Makeup, security check, refilling drinks...

White Crescent also spared a quarter of an hour to explain to them the key points of this semi-final, and then the players left the lounge under the urging of the event staff.

Lin Ran stood in the middle of the team, and when he took the elevator to the center of the stage, the cheers and screams from all around filled his ears.

"Next, let's welcome the MSI group champion—Young Miracles team!"

Accompanied by the passionate sound of the Brazilian host, Lin Ran and his teammates waved their arms to greet the audience in all directions.

Lin Ran looked at the people in G2 directly opposite, Ah P closed his eyes and put his hands behind his back, his body swayed from side to side, as if he was immersed in his own world.

……

"Welcome to the live broadcast of the first semi-final of MSI."

Today's domestic live broadcast commentary is Jiji and Zeyuan.

"It should be two o'clock in the morning in China now," Zeyuan said. "Those who can get up and hold back their sleepiness to watch the game must be true fans of LPL."

Remember the passionate voice, "That's right, I believe YM's performance today will not disappoint everyone's expectations!"

There is no extra time to prepare, the metal sound that symbolizes the beginning of BP has already resounded through the venue!

The Brazilian audience at the scene burst into deafening noises, preparing for this semi-final!

Since YM is the first in the group stage, they have the priority to choose sides in the semifinals.

White Crescent chose the blue side, trying to use the excellent hero pool of YM players to put the BP pressure on G2.

He came up and pressed Syndra first, with a very simple purpose-to force G2 to block Lucian.

This is conspiracy.

The ruined and black-cut mid laner Lucian is the real ADC in this version. He can even single out heavy fighters head-on in the mid-term, while those fake ADCs can only run away when they see heroes like Shen in the mid-term.

G2 coach YoungBuck is a chubby guy with a white beard. He has led G2 to win three LEC championship trophies in a row since last year.

尽管去年的外战成绩分别是MSI的2-8和S6世界赛的2-4，但是已经能彰显他的实力。

After all, for some teams, being an expert in the civil war is a kind of happiness.

(Small knowledge: Coach YoungBuck left G7 after S2 to go to rival FNC, and led the team to the S2018 Global Finals in 8. He is regarded as the top coach in Europe)

He decisively sent Lucian to the BAN position, flipping through the notebook in his hand.

"Let's ban Kenan," White Crescent was thinking over and over, subconsciously pressing the spring of the pen to make a clicking sound, "They should block off Shen, so everyone will have a lot of room to play."

The idea behind White Crescent is very simple.

On the blue side, take advantage of the first player selection to exchange BAN positions with G2, and then give the team the dominant hero.

Coach G2 frowned and thought for a moment before making a decision.

"G2's second BAN was given to Lulu!" Zeyuan was a little surprised, "This move is a bit strange..."

"Although the support Lulu is very strong in the current version, YM usually doesn't take the support first," I remember wondering, "They are more inclined to take the hero first for the middle field and AD."

"This Lulu and the others should be able to use it by themselves?"

The white crescent on the field thought for a while, "Ban off the Emerald God."

Cui Shen has a high appearance rate in this MSI.

In fact, it has not been buffed in recent versions, and it was even weakened in version 7.3 (see picture).

The reason for the sudden increase in the appearance rate of Emerald God after being weakened is also very simple: the change of the jungle environment has brought it invisible benefits.

Because Emerald God has a strong ability to protect the wild area in the early stage.
