[LOL] chase light

50

The day before the semifinals, the living room on the first floor of the PND base was empty.

During this period of time, the players practiced until very late every day, and they must still be asleep at this point in the morning.They slept until lunch time, and then started the day's training after a simple lunch, which was boring and regular over and over again.

When He Hu went downstairs, he only saw coach Ah Qi looking at the magazine alone, and raised his hand to say hello to him.

Ah Qi's beard hasn't been shaved for several days, and there are big dark circles under his eyes.

"You came at the wrong time, the cook almost forgot that there are still people here who need breakfast."

"We'll just go out to eat later. By the way, how's the training going?"

He Hu sat down next to him, enjoying the comfortable time without the group of little troublemakers above endlessly making trouble for him.

"Do you want to hear the truth or the lie? It's just to fool the group of brats above, it's pretty good, work harder. They are very competitive. Sometimes I feel that my request is a bit too much, but they still follow it. Basically, there are no complaints, and there are complaints, such as 'you are heartless and ungrateful'."

"Of course it's the truth. Is it wrong for me to come here to listen to lies when they're not up?"

Ignoring Ah Qi's murmur of "Are you not sick", He Hu scratched his head and put on a "you say, I have a good mental capacity".

"The truth is, I don't like them." Ah Qi smiled helplessly, and it was unknown how much regret and regret there was in the smile. "I will tell you this alone, if you dare to say it, you will be finished."

"You say, I'm tight-lipped."

In recent years, the national conditions have continued to slump, and major teams have failed countless times in world competitions.

"Although we always boast that there are no underdogs in the league, as far as the facts are concerned, the LPL as a whole is still at a level of pecking at each other." Ah Qi's first sentence was strong enough, seeing that He Hu didn't show any strange expressions , after the acceptance was also good, he went on to say: "I started to take over PND in S4. At that time, I had a vague premonition. It's not that our players are not strong personally, they are very strong. But Europe, North America Which of the top players in these competition areas in Korea and South Korea is really good at picking their feet?"

If the gap in strength is not widened to a certain extent, it will be something else that determines the outcome.

"I don't know who made such bad moves in our team. Fight bravely and fiercely. If you can kill it once, you are good. If you can't kill it, you are a dish. Fighting in groups is fiercer than anyone else. It's really better than management. Grandson, the advantages cannot be exploited, and the disadvantages cannot be equalized. How many years have we suffered from the consequences of not paying attention to operations?"

There was even a period of time when few clubs would work hard in the position of coach.

The inherent view left by the jungle period is: You can still be strong without a coach. What is the use of a coach?

"A lot of people are vague about what operations are. I can't say it, but I'm sure it's the key to success that we've been looking for."

"During this period of time, I want to try to let them learn how to operate better, but you know, the overall environment of LPL has not changed, and there are really too few things in the training games, and I am also very vague about where their limits are. "

"But generally speaking, they are not hopeless." Ah Qi still has feelings for the team he has led for so long. "I see good things in them, but trust them, maybe a miracle will happen."

Looking at the time, in another hour or two, the protagonists of their conversation should get up and eat to start their day's schedule.

Ah Qi patted He Hu's shoulder.

"The people on the field are them, and we are just bystanders. You must know that the establishment of a dynasty has never been a matter of one day."

The much-anticipated semi-final kicked off on time.

PND vs. LMT, SINCE vs. AG, no matter which side is full of highlights and excitement.

SINCE, who played first, once again showed his terrifying strength on IEM10, and took away AG 3:0 to advance to tomorrow's finals.

But this is not the time for PND to feel that SINCE is strong, and there is still the mountain of LMT in front of them.Only by overcoming LMT can they stand opposite SINCE and compete for what all players dream of.

The current situation on the scene is that PND is 2:1 behind, and the fourth game is about to enter the BP stage.

Everyone present can see that PND's overall condition today is not very good.In the first game, several sleepwalking forced tower jumps by the jungler put PND into a 6:0 near-collapse disadvantage in the early stage.In the third game, SarieL was caught twice in a row by the opponent's jungler because he played too aggressively online, and he fell into a slump throughout the game.

Although there was no explosion in the bottom lane, the performance of being pressed by the opponent dozens of knives at every turn was not at all like Gu Linjun and Yang Zhuoxi in the past.

"Fight hard." Ah Qi saw their performance in his eyes. "If you feel like this is your limit, stop."

None of the five spoke.As long as they make one more mistake, all the efforts they have made in the past will be reduced to ashes.Silence spread.

Winning this game may also lose, but if you stop here, you really have nothing.

In the fourth game, PND regained its momentum, relying on Kazuki's well-timed ganks and Devin's teleportation support to help the bottom lane quickly establish an overwhelming advantage.

Foreign commentators in the distance gave a high praise to Kazuki's performance in this game.

——If at the beginning of the season, he was just an obscure little jungler who was overwhelmed by Lin, SarieL, and even Devin, then now I see his courage.He opened up the whole situation by squatting down the road in the first 15 minutes.Very great tactics, he trusts his teammates enough, and knows his position in the team.

PND, who successfully pulled back a victory, brought the game to the final of BO5.

In the last bitter battle, both sides went back and forth. SarieL's czar on the line single-handedly killed Scorpions' enchantress and proved himself once. Turning around, Witch led the top laner to catch the three.Until the No.40 second minute of the game, PND, who took the lead in occupying the dominant terrain of the dragon, completed a wave of perfect team battles with the Tsar of the Six Gods and the small cannon that reached the peak of the dominant period.

The PND team logo lights up on the big screen.

They found themselves at the last minute and successfully eliminated LMT to advance to the finals.

One side of the camera showed the BO5 winner PND team: no one had a smile or any positive emotions on their faces, they were just tired, leaning on their chairs and looking into the endless distance.

It looks more like the eliminated side than the LMT, which can barely maintain its appearance.

When the two sides shook hands after the game, Qi Rui and Witch hugged.

Both Witch and Scorpions, who lost the game, saw that he was not in good condition. They hugged him vigorously, patted his shoulder and signaled him to cheer for the next game.

When he left the arena, Gu Linjun was waiting for him in front as before.

He Hu, who was trying to liven up the atmosphere, even said several jokes, but couldn't change the estrangement that had been between them since a certain day.

"Go and win, everything will be fine if you win."

——How long has it been since they stood on the stage of the world finals?

Since the crushing defeat in the S4 finals, it has never happened again.The moment he appeared on the stage, Gu Linjun felt that the extremely familiar venue had changed into another appearance he didn't recognize at all—it was like the open-air Shangyan Gymnasium, where dreams began and ended.

Challenge SINCE will be an extremely difficult game.Since the S3 South Korean team showed overwhelming suppression in world competitions, there are few teams in other divisions that can compete with it.

Everything is like a replica of yesterday, except that the opponent has been replaced by a more powerful SINCE.

PND fell behind with a score of 1:2, and the BP of the fourth game is about to start, and they are only one game away from becoming the opponent's dynasty.The question Ah Qi had asked them a long time ago after the end of the IEM came to mind again.Where can they go?

The answer will be revealed in the next confrontation.

It’s not that they haven’t played scrims against LCK teams, but it’s completely different from feeling the pressure that Korean teams put on their opponents in international competitions. They didn’t even feel that way in the scrims where they were bloodbathed by KBT 3:1. The desperate breath of death.

Ah Qi has been trying his best to let them go forward, and when they have gone far enough to think that the gap between themselves and their opponents is no longer that big, SINCE tells them with facts how much difference there is between them.

From the early stage to the present, there have been no fierce team battles, and no small-scale head bursts.It’s just that Kazuki’s Devourer didn’t stack up to 10 layers in [-] minutes, the wild area always belonged to the opponent, Yang Zhuoxi’s vision was always completely cleared, and the outer towers were eaten away one by one.

The equipment gap has been further widened, even if it is not God's perspective that can intuitively see the economy, you can feel the terrible economic gap.

Just like what they did to VE in the spring semifinals.But SINCE is more mature and experienced than them, and also more cautious and cold.

If the Korean team does not have a huge advantage in the early stage, in the mid-term, almost no team is their opponent in terms of operation and invasion.This is recognized in all regions.Now, they are slowly drowning and can even see their own death.

There was a deathly silence in the team's voice.

What to do, what to do to break this terrible impasse.

Unfortunately, they failed in their last desperate fight.

SINCE became the overall champion of the 2016 League of Legends MSI Mid-Season Invitational Tournament, and all the cheers and glory will belong to them.

On the way back, no one wanted to say anything more.Even as rough as Yang Zhuoxi, he looked at the scenery outside the window with a sullen face.Next is a short holiday, but at the moment, no one wants to discuss the arrangements for the holiday.

Gu Linjun sat beside Qi Rui.The string that had been tense in my mind broke, and my forehead twitched in pain.

If you really have to keep winning to keep your opponent by your side, wouldn't it be too much of a stretch?

"let's break up."

Before they can't help themselves and do more painful things for each other, let's separate.

Qi Rui nodded, acquiescing to his proposal.

He wanted to say that's fine, but something was choked in his throat, which made him look away in embarrassment, and missed Gu Linjun who was also in a mess.

The sword of Damocles hanging above his head finally fell.
