What is a wandering mid laner?

He glanced at the YM training room and saw Guo Hao talking with the white crescent with a happy face, so he knew that these two old Yin coins were absolutely aware of the broiler lottery.

Guo Hao sneezed under the curse, rubbed his nose and prepared to take some medicine at night to prevent it. At this juncture, his cold and fever would not have much effect, but once it spreads to the team members, it will cause serious problems.

He made a note secretly, and continued to stare at the players' screens. Lin Ran and the others were preparing to accompany other members of the training team.

Bobby is still very considerate in this respect. Ueno Naka and Xiasuke bring two people for each position, and IG has 3 players for each position. On the one hand, all three teams can find training opponents, so that it will not happen. Time conflict; on the other hand, it also diversifies the training styles of sparring partners, and it is also convenient to adjust the training objects according to the imaginary enemy.

Lin Ran was facing two mid laners, Zhuo Ding and Doinb. Although the current golden left hand learned a trick of roaming from Lin Ran, his goal was not the same as Lin Ran.

It is simply because it is too difficult for him to overwhelm opponents in a single line in the professional arena, so he uses roaming to establish advantages. Most of these advantages are concentrated on himself, so that the economic gap between him and the opponent's mid laner is quickly widened.

Today's Zhuo Ding has a distinctive style-suppressing the lane as much as possible in the early stage, roaming in the mid-term to expand economic advantages for himself, collecting heads everywhere to make luxurious equipment in advance, and team battles rely on the dual advantages of operation and equipment to complete the harvest.

The golden left hand is a typical resource-eating monster. It is not a problem to be the big damage player in the team after eating resources, but it is not good to assist teammates. It is easy to get lost in the style of play.

Doinb, another mid laner in the sparring team, will have a lot of success in this transformation. He was originally a mid-finger type mid laner who eats resources and hits explosive output, but after following Lin Ran in the Spring Split, he began to try to change. Rich and varied mid laners.

Now he can be both a core player and an auxiliary mid laner. Lulu and Karma are also considered to be unique in the current LPL. Jingdong's poor performance is mainly due to the fact that his teammates are too hip.

The training plan that Lin Ran arranged for himself was very simple, if he was strong in lane, and if he was in good form in roaming and team battles, he would be in good shape.

At eight o'clock in the evening, all team members quit the game and stopped training.

Guo Hao distributed takeaways, and White Crescent borrowed equipment to project images from Riot's official live broadcast room onto the screen in the training room.

"The draw for the 2017 Global Finals and the group stage is about to begin." Standing in the studio, Ren Dong, Grip of the Immortal, faced the camera, his voice as always full of passion, and sitting beside him was the fist designer Chun Li Remember with commentary.

"Summoners, are you ready?"

"I invite the two guests of this lottery ceremony!"

The old friends who have competed with YM since the secondary league, King Ning's favorite AmazingJ and Broiler combed their hair to look like adults, and appeared shoulder to shoulder in front of all the audience.

"That's called an ogre mage," Suantou Baba still remembered Jack's cold joke that day, "You can tell by your body shape."

Still no one paid any attention to his cold jokes.

The first is the draw of finalists. The third seed from the four regions of South Korea LCK (SSG), Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan LMS (HKA), North America NA.LCS (C9) and Europe EU.LCS (FNC) will be divided into four in turn. group.

"The play-in competition is not very interesting..." Jack put the e-sports chair flat, and lay down like a bed, with his feet on the armrests of the chair, in an extremely arrogant posture, "How many teams can still lose?"

"That's hard to say. I think the teams in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan are too stratified. Their No. 3 seed is easy to overturn. Last year, ANX was able to enter the top 8..." Lin Ranzui said so, his eyes still lingering Chat with Su Cheng on the phone screen.

"Hey, isn't that Tabe?" Jack rubbed his chin and looked at the screen. Lin Ran heard the familiar name and glanced up.

It's really a tabe.

This old supporter who relied on the support of Annie to shine and won the S3 runner-up with the royal family went to the commentary stand several times. After experiencing the S5 leak door incident, he went to IG as a firefighter for half a year. Take turns hanging and beating.

He finally realized that his career as a player should be over. Lin Ran heard that after Tabe left IG, he went to seek a teaching position in a foreign competition area. He did not expect to become the head coach of HKA in the Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan competition area.

After the No. 3 seeds in the four divisions were drawn, the 8 champion teams from wild-card regions such as Turkey, Oceania, and Japan were divided into 4 groups on average, and ranked below the 4 major division teams.

If there is no accident, this group of fish frying masters who won the wild card competition with a crushing record will be ravaged by this group of third seeds who fought hard in the bubbling match 10 days later.

The difference between the wild cards and the five major competition areas is like cloud and mud. There is a huge gap in strength. In most cases, they are not even qualified to stop them.

"The lottery draw for the play-in competition has come to an end. Let AmazingJ continue to draw four No. [-] seed pool teams in the group stage!"

AmazingJ seemed a little nervous. He rubbed his hands and stepped forward to the glass basin containing 4 opaque black balls.

He will decide the grouping of LPL No. 1 seed YM, LCK No. 1 seed LZ, EU. , their summer split champion TSM can only wait for their fate in the second seed pool.

The chubby hand stirred it for a while, and AJ drew the first ball.

The moment he opened it, he couldn't help laughing.

YM!

A black and red dragon appeared on the big screen behind AJ. After circling twice, the black dragon turned into a YM icon, embedded in the position directly below Group A.

Immediately afterwards, the official live broadcast room played YM's highlight moments of the year.

In the mid-season match, Lin Ran’s yellow chicken sand burial destroyed G2. In the semi-finals of the summer game, Xiaopao single-handedly defeated Lu Xi’an, and the final three games were included in Galio. There were also Jin Gong Jianji who stole home, and Liu Qingsong Thresh’s Prediction of the magic hook, Jack's pentakill performance and the ferocious spider queen...

And the pictures of them winning championships and cups time and time again.

The narration with a deep voice sounded in the lounge.

"After defeating SKT to win the Summoner's Trophy in the 2016 Global Finals, YM has made great strides all the way and continued to maintain their strong posture. While winning the LPL spring and summer double championships, they also won the mid-season championship and the Asian competition championship. There is no doubt , YM will be the favorite to win this year's global finals!"

Then AJ drew all the remaining three balls, LZ was in Group B, G2 was in Group C, and the remaining Flash Wolves were in Group D.

AJ has completed the task after drawing the No. [-] seed pool, and the next draw will be handed over to another guest broiler.

"The main thing is to look at the two teams that will be assigned to Group A next..." Near this time, Guo Hao was inevitably a little nervous.

The broiler with cheeks full of collagen appeared on the stage, with a shy and simple smile on his face, and his next task was crucial-select 8 teams from the No. [-] seed pool to decide the world championship for all teams The fate of the group stage.

These include LPL No. [-] and No. [-] seeds RNG and WE, No. [-] seed AHQ in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, No. [-] seed MSF in Europe, No. [-] seed SKT in South Korea, No. [-] and No. [-] seeds in North America TSM and IMT, and No. [-] seed GAM in Vietnam.

If you draw a good lottery, you may change your fate, but if you draw a bad lottery, you can wait and see.

Broiler first took out a black ball, opened it facing the camera, and smiled the moment he saw the team icon.

TSM.

"North American big brother is here!" Ren Dong shouted in the studio, "North American summer champion TSM will be in the same group as our No. [-] LPL seed YM!"

Guo Hao breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, this opponent is not very strong, and YM can take the opponent lightly.

……

The three teams of IMT, AHQ and MSF were assigned in turn, and after going around in circles, Broiler will draw the last opponent for YM.

"This is not good news," said Ji Ji, who was sitting in the studio, frowning. "Neither WE nor RNG have been drawn out. According to the avoidance principle of the same competition area and the same group, they will not live with YM in Group A..."

"There are only two opponents left for YM, GAM in Vietnam and SKT in South Korea." Chun Li, the designer of Riot Games who was invited, nodded and clarified the facts.

"Let's see which team the broiler will draw!"

With Ren Dong's shouts, Broiler took out a black ball and opened it!

This time he smiled brighter than before.

There was loud laughter in the YM training room, and the cheers echoed in the closed room!

Guo Hao's mouth was about to smile crookedly, and a group of players and managers clapped their hands in celebration.

"GAM!" I remember clenching my fists, "YM really got a good lottery!"

Layers upon layers of bullet screens filled the live broadcast room!

[Wu~ what a handsome broiler! 】

[I have a question, why is it said to be a good sign? 】

[Eldest brother's face cracked with laughter this time, right?The probability of qualifying is quite high! 】

[That's over, the weak teams are all here at YM, what about the other two LPL teams? 】

Afterwards, the broilers drew RNG and WE one after another, and everyone knew that the last black ball was SKT. After being separated by routine, the grouping form became clear.

Group A: YM, TSM, GAM

Group B: LZ, IMT, RNG

Group C: G2, AHQ, WE

Group D: FW, MSF, SKT

"The remaining spot in each group will be determined after the qualifying stage," Ren Dong explained to the audience, "But at present, YM has a very high probability of qualifying. Apart from their hard power, the level of opponents in the group Not being high is also an important reason.”

"The same is true for WE. Neither G2 nor AHQ is considered a very strong team. If the boys of WE work hard, they will hopefully qualify for the first place in the group!" Ren Dong, Ji Ji and Chun Li are still analyzing the form of qualifying.

"RNG is more difficult. The Dragon Ball team defeated SKT to win the championship this summer. You must know that it was the first time for Faker to witness their opponent lift the championship trophy on the final stage of a domestic league. Their strength is beyond doubt!"

As soon as the grouping results came out, several families were happy and others were sad.

Lin Ran and his teammates had no time to take care of it at this time. The two opponents had already been determined, and they had to train hard to prepare for the group match in half a month.

The strength of each team will be known in half a month's time!

Chapter 329: Legends Never Die

Xiaotian, who had been excited all night because he drew a good lottery, rarely got up early, so he ran to the balcony to watch the scenery in his pajamas.

Hougong Lake looks delicate and refined against the backdrop of green vegetation, and the Yangtze River on the other side is no longer irritable during the summer flood season. It is quiet and gentle to wrap several giant ships by the river, and the water drops make a splash on the hull The sound was crushed to pieces in an instant.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning was not diluted by the thin clouds, and it shone straight on the river, creating golden waves. A few gray magpies hid in the trees and looked at the river quietly, with their lovely long tails drooping Behind the buttocks, the black-and-white gradient tail feathers from thick to light are extraordinarily soft and gorgeous in the morning light.

"I don't poke needles, I live by the river and don't poke needles..." Suantou Wangba excitedly picked up his mobile phone to record, and let out a devilish laugh from time to time.

Lin Ran, who was wearing a pure white T-shirt, came out of the bathroom, with a white towel wrapped around his neck, he wiped off the water droplets on his cheeks, and then applied skin care products on it.

"Do you need it?" Lin Ran glanced at Xiao Yan, shaking the body lotion in his hand.

"No, no..." Suantou Wangba habitually shook his head and refused. Except for makeup before the game, he couldn't put anything on his face at other times.

Now that Lin Ran has distorted the torn wounds, Zhongfu and Zhongfu are young experts in skin care, he feels that he needs to hug Shiba Inu, Neck Collector Jin Gong, severe Two-dimensional prophet and early morning God of War with no brains We must not let them be corroded by this kind of atmosphere.

"What about the wristbands, do you want to wear them?" Lin Ran took out two pairs of pure black wristbands from the small front pocket of the backpack.

He wore a pair for the World Championships last year, and this year Su Cheng bought him another pair to stuff in his bag. Originally, Lin Ran thought it was a waste, but the girl insisted that "pairing into a pair" would be a good thing, so she insisted on giving it to him. Bracers have been added to cart.

Xiaoguan moved her slender wrist, shook her head and refused, "My hands don't hurt now, and wearing this thing still hinders my operation."

"It will be too late when you are in pain." Lin Ran replied, but he didn't say anything more, put on the wristband and went out to have breakfast with Xiao Yan.

While waiting for the elevator, Lin Ran looked at various e-sports forums.

The audience during the offseason was very lonely, and the management team of the e-sports forum also opened the gate to let everyone post their experience, and the largest number of them was the scoring post.

Lin Ran saw a photo of himself in a post [I'll send contestants to rate you, out of 10 points].

As he expected, his evaluation in the forum is extremely high, all full marks, the first championship in the S game and the hard results of fmvp are enough to go sideways in the LPL.

Lin Ran read dozens of comments, and felt that the reputation of his career was ridiculously good, which was considered a special case on Internet forums that were very hostile.

He doesn't go on strike with a negative attitude, and he doesn't take his girlfriend to the base to interfere with training... Oh, his girlfriend is a team analyst, that's okay.

Lin Ran will not do things like connotation teammates. With Lin Ran's personality, he can get along well until he retires just by relying on this world championship champion. In the end, he can also talk about the past with new audiences through the live broadcast. The story of the first fmvp crown.

However, Lin Ran is more concerned about netizens' opinions on yesterday's group match draw.

After flipping through two pages of posts, Lin Ran knew what was going on.

Most of the audience believed that YM would easily enter the knockout round as the top of the group, and many optimistic families believed that YM would win all of them.

WE is also currently divided into a non-Korean team, and the situation of qualifying without an LCK team is also very good.

Netizens are most worried about RNG. Needless to say, the strength of Dragon Ball, the ability to defeat SKT in the LCK final is definitely at the top level in the world. The audience does not think that RNG can take advantage of Dragon Ball.

Since there are LCK and North American teams in the RNG group, according to the principle of avoidance in the same group, the last position in the RNG group will only be filled by Europe, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan or wild card competition regions.

What is worth worrying about is the European No. [-] seed FNC, when the time comes, the group RNG is in will become a veritable death group.

The elevator reached the restaurant floor. There were not too many people here. Riot China had booked the entire fifth floor of the hotel since yesterday. Naturally, there were not many customers at this time.

Three South Korean teams also arrived in Wuhan last night. Lin Ran and Xiao An had just sat down, and SKT’s true and false Lee brothers—Wolf Lee Jae Wan and faker Lee Sang Hyuk also walked in.

The restaurant was empty enough, and the four of them subconsciously ignored the waiters around them, and locked their eyes on their opponents.

At this moment when the thunder hits the ground, the four people's eyes are full of unyielding fighting spirit, which seems to never go out - of course this is Lin Ran's imagination, he is actually using all his strength to stare, Put on an expression of bitterness and hatred.

The moment their eyes met, Lin Ran knew he had lost.

Because he doesn't wear glasses.

Suantou bastard and him together only have 6 eyes, how can they fight with SKT's 8 eyes?

He looked up and down SKT's Zhongfu, and found that he was no match for his weight. Wolf was worthy of being the only Li brother in SKT, and he seemed to be a very stable man.

After the flashy eyes met, the four of them nodded to each other, and Shuang Li sat at the table next to Lin Ran and Xiao Tian with the plate in his hands after choosing breakfast.

None of the four knew the language of the other's country—except for swear words like assiba and fuck your mother.

The two parties could only communicate in English. At first, Lin Ran thought that he had followed his girlfriend to get up early and studied TOEFL for half a year, but now it finally came in handy.

But he soon realized he was thinking too much.

Lee Sang-hyuk and Lee Jae-wan both graduated from high school. Even if they are natives of England and America, they don't understand much.

At this moment, Lin Ran wants to accompany meiko, a member of the sparring team, to be by his side as an interpreter. He is a model who is eager to learn and is motivated. He is actively learning Korean in the LPL. Unlike King Ning, he usually wants to buy AJ, but he can’t even speak Korean. Learning, during the game, I have to trouble the broiler to be a bridge of communication between him and the top laner.

He thought about it and immediately lowered his head in shame. He had been with Han Yuan day and night for two years, and he couldn't even speak a word of Korean except swear words.
