Mingkai, if you're this cowardly, you should just go home and raise pigs.

LZ's match has just ended, and EDG has already started a scrim with WE.

After WE was eliminated yesterday, their journey in this World Championship has come to an end, so they had already played all day yesterday.

And today, they are still the only ones who can fight!

Similarly, SSG is playing scrims against SKT!

Abu even collected all the players' phones during training matches, strictly prohibiting them from using their phones to browse forums and trending topics.

SKT and LZ have already advanced, while only RNG from LPL has advanced, so they are currently at a disadvantage.

Abu is well aware that when at such a disadvantage, it is easy to be affected by trolls and haters.

Logically speaking, EDG should have no problem beating SSG, but Abu didn't want to gamble because he felt it was completely unnecessary to do so.

After playing five practice matches, the debriefing session ended and everyone was asked to go back to their dorms to sleep.

Even diet needs to be controlled to a certain extent.

Everyone got up early the next day at noon.

After having lunch together, we headed to the competition venue at 2 p.m.

When the bus arrived at the scene, there were already many spectators waiting for them.

"EDG! Come on!"

"Attack, good luck!"

"Keep it up, factory manager!"

"Xiao Zhao, keep it up!"

"Go, junior!"

Cheers and shouts of encouragement filled the air.

Looking at the spectators holding up support signs, the EDG members all responded with smiles.

Just as everyone was about to enter the competition venue, an untimely shout suddenly rang out.

"Mingkai, if we lose again this time, it's really over for 58.com. We might as well just retire!"

Swish!

In an instant, the space fell silent, and everyone looked at that person.

Mingkai's smile suddenly froze!

Just as the security guard was about to pull the man away, Zhou Hanyang waved his hand and shouted, "Wait!"

All eyes turned to Zhou Hanyang again.

"Judging from your stubborn expression, you're probably neither KR nor a troll!" Zhou Hanyang smiled. "If you've really watched Mingkai's previous games, you should have seen his peak."

"I have indeed seen him!" The man stubbornly shook off the security guard and shouted defiantly, "But even a peak Ming Kai couldn't beat him, how could an aging Ming Kai still win?"

"Peak Mingkai has provided a safe haven for the other veterans!" Zhou Hanyang smiled. "He has also set an example for us new generation esports players!"

If you're not playing esports to chase your dream of winning a championship, are you going to sell pancakes? Mingkai is indeed not young anymore, so it's our turn as young players to support him.

With a top laner like me, what makes you think that Mingkai's last dance is over? Let's make a deal!

"What agreement?" The man was slightly lost in thought.

"See you at the Bird's Nest!" Zhou Hanyang gave him a thumbs up, then patted Mingkai on the shoulder and walked into the competition venue.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah……"

In an instant, the audience erupted in cheers.

"See you at the Bird's Nest!!!" the fan shouted towards the spot where the EDG players had disappeared.

……

"Wow! Yang is so handsome! His words are full of emotional intelligence." Meiko said with a smile as soon as she entered the competition venue.

"Mingkai, please don't retire!" Zhou Hanyang shouted sarcastically.

"..." Ming Kai, who was already in a bad mood, couldn't help but have a series of question marks appear on his forehead: "???"

"You're the last dance, your whole family is the last dance!!!" Mingkai shouted angrily, "When did I ever say it was the last dance???"

"Huh? Didn't you say that? Maybe I remembered wrong?" Zhou Hanyang grinned mischievously, "Hahahaha..."

"I'll fuck you XXOOO..."

……

The atmosphere warmed up again after everyone's teasing.

Abu looked at the EDG team and couldn't help but smile.

Mingkai has always been someone who likes to shoulder all the burdens himself.

After Zhou Hanyang appeared, Mingkai was clearly not under as much pressure.

The team atmosphere at EDG is actually much better than before.

At 4 p.m., the big screen began a countdown, and the match officially started.

The first thing to appear was the promotional video for EDG and SSG's semi-final appearance.

Both EDG and SSG stated their respective goals and reasons why they could not afford to lose the match.

"Hello everyone, I'm commentator Guan Zeyuan!"

"Hello everyone, I'm commentator Wang Duoduo!"

"Hello everyone, I'm commentator Rita!"

……

“In this best-of-five series, EDG has the first choice of side! EDG will probably choose the blue side!” Wang Duoduo said first.

“The blue side has a certain advantage in both the draft and the map,” Rita said with a smile. “EDG’s red and blue sides are not much different, but for SSG, the red side will have a much harder time.”

"Judging from the previous knockout matches, it's quite difficult to determine the outcome of the World Championship by relying solely on the bot lane. In the early game, the mid and jungle players need to step up and set the pace to help the team establish an advantage!"

Guan Zeyuan began analyzing the match: "Although even if you are at a disadvantage in the early game, you can still fight in team fights in the late game because of the Ardent Censer, it is still more likely to win team fights if you gain an advantage and tempo in the early game!"

"Yes, judging from the current matches, the early game tempo is indeed very important. Once you gain the tempo, vision control becomes much more advantageous..."

The three commentators began to discuss and analyze the match.

The audience endured over ten minutes of the commentators' ramblings before the players finally took to the field!

It must be said that a stadium with a capacity of 30,000 is indeed different.

Walking to the center of the stage, Zhou Hanyang looked at the sea of ​​heads, the dazzling lights, and the wildly swaying support signs.

A surge of passion welled up in Zhou Hanyang's heart without his noticing.

We must win!

For yourself, for your teammates, for your fans!

We must win!

Wishing everyone a healthy New Year! After all, health is the foundation of everything; only with good health can we talk about anything else!
