Chapter 91 Go to MSI and torture Faker!
Luo Xin also realized this problem and asked: "Director, what do you think of the current SKT? Will it be more difficult to deal with after Little Peanut joins?"
Realizing that this problem cannot be avoided, the director sorted out his thoughts and answered: "As a Triple Crown team, SKT is very strong. Needless to say, as for Peanut joining SKT..."
The director was sweating coldly on his forehead, and the pressure was a bit high.
"Little Peanut's offensive ability is stronger, coupled with Faker's laning ability, it is a great test for us."
The director felt exhausted when he said this, so much so that Luo Xin didn't want to tease him anymore.
Luo Xin turned to look at Su Mo: "Now it's Brother Mozi's turn. Brother Mozi, what do you think of this MSI? You will face the triple crown champion SKT. Do you feel nervous?"
Su Mo's answer was simple: "I only focus on my own performance. It doesn't matter who my opponent is."
In fact, he said this just because he had never studied SKT.
His words ignited the passion of the barrage:
"This young man! So crazy!"
"You're not pretending on purpose, right?"
"Finally I see some hope."
"It's me, Brother Mozi, who speaks with confidence!"
"This is called self-confidence, our factory should learn from it!"
“I hope the factory can regain its confidence in the little peanut at this MSI.”
Luo Xin continued to interview other people, and soon the interview ended.
"Everyone, I wish you a good performance in MSI. I'm leaving now, goodbye."
After saying hello, Luo Xin left.
Finally, he turned around and waved his hand and said, "Bye bye, Brother Mozi!"
"Bye!" Su Mo responded.
After two days of rest, EDG resumed training again and studied their MSI opponents.
After studying for more than ten days, it is finally approaching the start of the MSI competition.
After all the formalities are completed, EDG sets off to Brazil to participate in MSI!
One day before departure, the EDG official blog updated the news.
Hence, at the airport on the day of departure, many EDG fans came to see him off.
After a whole day's journey, everyone in EDG finally reached their goal.
After getting off the plane, everyone in EDG got in the car and headed straight to the hotel.
Although you can sleep on a plane, it is much worse than sleeping in a bed.
After entering the hotel, everyone went straight to the front desk to complete the formalities.
This is a hotel designated by Riot Games, and there are already many Riot staff members inside.
The arrival of the EDG crowd attracted the attention of many people.
After all, EDG is also a frequent visitor to various international competitions.
Su Mo heard someone discussing them:
"That one seems to be EDG, the LPL spring champion." Did you watch the LPL spring finals? That new guy from EDG, Mo, seems pretty good. "
"It's him, that handsome guy, did you see him."
Some people even recognized Su Mo. After all, they are Riot staff, so it's not surprising to see him in LPL games.
Soon, Abu completed the formalities and said:
"You guys take the room cards, one for each person. Take them as you like, all next to each other."
Everyone then reached out to get the room cards.
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the door.
"SKT!" came the exclamation.
Su Mo looked back and saw a group of people walking in from outside. Everyone was carrying a bag and was covered in dust.
These people all look quite young, in their twenties, with stern expressions. The leader is a man wearing black-rimmed glasses, with a thin build...
Faker, SKT’s starting mid laner, Triple Crown winner, and the world’s number one mid laner!
After Faker entered the door, all the staff around him looked over, and all eyes were focused on him.
“Faker, I am your fan, can you give me an autograph?”
“Faker, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, sir...”
【Detect the appearance of the legendary player Faker around the host, triggering a hidden mission】
【Task 1: Go up and ask for autographs, take photos, show your identity as a fan, reward: tadpole title】
【Task 2: Within three minutes, in Faker gets torture points, and the reward is: 1 Ultimate Proficiency Card]
[Task 3: Go up and give him a big hand, and escape unscathed, reward: the title of Grumpy Brother]
Su Mo can't stand it anymore, does this task 3 want him to die?
If he goes up to give Faker a big hand, he still wants to escape unscathed?
Su Mo noticed when he entered the door just now that the security personnel outside the hotel were all fully armed.
This place is not in the country, and the public security is very poor, so the security is very strict.
If you attack Faker, it’s not surprising that you’ll be attacked.
As for this task one, the reward is too bad, and he is not a fan of Faker.
"I choose task two!"
You can only choose the second one.
The key is how to torture Faker?
First of all, he couldn't pass the language test because he didn't understand Korean.
However, you can find a system. This is how I learned English before.
"I want to learn Korean!"
【Korean proficiency skill requires 1000 torture points. Do you want to buy it? 】
【Purchase successful, remaining torture points 1650】
This is done.
Su Mo looked at everyone in SKT again.
Sure enough, you can hear what SKT is talking about.
Little Peanut was smiling: "There are so many people, Brother Xianghe is still so popular."
Huni suddenly looked towards Su Mo: "Look, it's EDG! Mr. Mingkai is here too!"
Others indeed glanced this way.
Su Mo glanced at the factory director, who retracted his head.
"Let's go up first." The factory director couldn't stay any longer and wanted to leave.
So everyone in EDG walked towards the elevator entrance.
However, Su Mo's task was not completed yet, so he suggested: "Don't rush it yet, it's still time to say hello to SKT."
"Huh? We're not familiar with each other, how can we say hello?" The director just wanted to leave.
At this moment, everyone in SKT dismissed the fans and strode over.
Can't escape!
【Get torture points +20 from the factory director】
"Coach Kkoma." Abu stepped forward to say hello.
"Hello, Manager Abu." Kkoma came up to shake hands as a friendly gesture.
Huni and Xiaohuahua winked: "Look at Mr. Mingkai, he doesn't look good."
Little Peanut poked Faker: "Brother Xianghe, I'm not wrong, he is afraid of me."
Faker just smiled and said nothing.
"Hello, Faker, I didn't expect to meet you here by such a coincidence." Suddenly, a voice came.
SKT everyone looked over.
Su Mo spoke Korean and was very fluent.
Little Peanut was thinking badly, is there anyone else in EDG who understands Korean?
It wouldn't matter if only Scout heard it. Scout was familiar with them.
But the person in front of me...
"Hello." Faker responded, extending his hand to shake.
At this moment, something outrageous happened.
Most people shake hands with their right hand. After all, the right hand is the dominant hand.
However, Su Mo extended his left hand, which caused Faker to not react immediately. After he extended his right hand, he couldn't match it.
Hence, he could only switch to his left hand, but when he changed his hand, Su Mo also changed his hand.
Still not right.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and switched back to their left hands, but they still couldn't match up!
Faker raised his head and glanced at Su Mo, and Su Mo also looked at Faker.
The others were immediately embarrassed. What were these two people doing?
"You first." Faker chose to let Su Mo change first, so there was no problem.
"It's okay, that's okay." Su Mo turned his arm over and forced Faker's handshake. Although it was awkward, he still managed to shake it.
【Obtain torture points +10 from Fake】
[The hidden task is completed, congratulations to the host for obtaining a master proficiency card. ]
Su Mo’s eyes lit up instantly. This task is as simple as giving it to him for nothing...
"Then let’s go first." Abu led everyone in EDG to take the first step.
As he was leaving, Su Mo noticed that Xiaohuahua, Huni and Wolf were all staring at him with unkind eyes.
It seems that these three people have opinions about him and feel that he is deliberately causing trouble
EDG Everyone got into the elevator. After the elevator door closed, the factory director breathed a sigh of relief.
Others are also a little nervous. Everyone is under pressure when facing SKT.
Abu greeted: "You will find your own room later and pack your luggage. We will go to eat and rest first after eating. Everyone is tired."
Arrived on the fifth floor, everyone in EDG began to find their own rooms.
Humber Su Mo found the room and used the room card to open the door, put his luggage in and tidied it up a little.
As they arrived outside the door, other people came out of the room one after another. After arriving, under the leadership of Abu, everyone went to the hotel restaurant together.
Entering the restaurant, Su Mo found that there were quite a few people there. About ten people were sitting together, and they looked like they were in the same team.
There are many acquaintances here, such as FW, T, and G2, who are all frequent visitors to the World Championship.
In addition, there are various wild card teams. They all came in advance to compete in the playoffs and have been playing for several days.
Su Mo could hear what they were talking about. They were basically talking about SKT, making appointments for training matches, and occasionally EDG.
· EDG Everyone found a place to sit down and started ordering food.
After ordering the meal, everyone started to wait and play with their mobile phones.
Suddenly, there was a noise in the restaurant, and Su Mo looked at the door.
· The entire SKT team came in, and many players from other regions came up to SKT for autographs and photos.
Mei Kou sighed: "This is the treatment of Triple Crown champions, the gap is a bit big."
Abu joked: "It's okay. If you win three S-race championships in the future, you will be so popular."
Hearing this, everyone laughed and took it as a joke.
At this time, Su Mo said: "By the way, who are we going to fight in the opening match?"
"SKT!" As soon as Abu said this, everyone's momentum weakened by three points.
After eating, everyone in EDG went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, training began. Abramovich made appointments with other teams in the competition area in advance to familiarize himself with the opponent's playing style.
But time is very tight, only three days of training.
Originally, Abramovich wanted to ask SKT to give it a try. Even if he couldn't beat them, at least he knew where he couldn't beat them.
But it’s a pity that other teams want to play with SKT, but SKT can’t make an appointment at all.
In the end, Abu had no choice but to give up.
Three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the MSI competition is here!
In the lounge, everyone at EDG is waiting for the game to start.
Abu greeted: "The tactics and BP have been planned in advance. Now adjust your mentality and don't be nervous."
Su Mo sat on a chair and took out his mobile phone to read the rhythm on the Internet.
· Sure enough, the Internet is discussing today’s opening game, EDG VS SKT.
Su Mo saw a rating post with a lot of replies, so he clicked on it to take a look.
This post compares each position horizontally, starting with the top lane position.
Mouse VS Huni.
Attached are the data of the two people, the hero pool, focusing on the following comments:
"Let's open at 37, there is no suspense."
"At 28, it's very polite."
Continue reading below.
Mo VS Huni.
"50 to 50! There is definitely hope."
"So conservative? 73 to open, Mozi's battle to become famous!"
"Forty to 60, I think it is better to take it easy, otherwise I will be too disappointed."
It seems that everyone is still more cautious, worried about being slapped in the face, and dare not be too optimistic.
Jungle position.
Clearlove7 VS Peanut
"Zero ten! Director, I am your fan!"
"Zero ten! Let's repeat yesterday."
"Zero ten! If you persist for twenty minutes, you will win."
This is too outrageous!
Even the most optimistic fans would not dare to side with the director!
The next one is the mid laner position.
Scout VS Faker.
"At thirty-seven, I'm going to stumble against the old master."
"At 46, I think Scout has some ability, but he is opposite Faker."
Hence "At 28, doesn't SKT understand Scout yet?"
Su Mo While watching, suddenly, Abramovich said: "It's almost time, get ready to play!"
At the game site, three commentators appeared on the live broadcast screen in the commentary box of the LPL division.
I saw Guan Zeyuan speaking first:
"Okay, audience friends, we will come to the exciting MSI main stage. The opening game of the group stage will be between EDG, the spring champion from the LPL division, against SKT, the spring champion from the LCK division!"
Rita continued: "Yes, this is definitely the focus of this MSI. I am very nervous. Facing the triple crown champion SKT, can EDG still show their LPL status?" As the starter, he is currently in the top lane position. "
"Of course, they may change their formation during the BP process, this is possible."
MSI's official live broadcast room, the barrage went viral:
"Today, the factory director must defeat the nightmare and get back his own dignity!"
"Almost done, do you have what it takes?"
"SKT is so strong this year, it feels like it's going to win four championships."
"I can't figure out how EDG can beat SKT at all."
The auditorium was packed, and the host came on stage. After a simple opening speech, he shouted:
"Now let's Welcome to the players from both sides, first of all, the absolute king from the LCK division, the triple crown champion, SKT! ”
The spotlight was given to the players’ channel, and the starting five of SKT walked onto the stage wearing uniforms with three stars on them.
The director also gave three stars a special close-up.
· Guan Zeyuan explained: "This is SKT's new team uniform this year. The three stars represent the three S-level championships. They are the most legendary team in the history of the league. This year they will become even stronger with the addition of Peanut!"
SKT fans at the scene cheered overwhelmingly: "SKT! SKT! SKT!"
SKT's five players lined up to receive the fans' welcome.
"Now! Let us welcome the spring champion from the LPL region, E! D! G!"
Following this, everyone from EDG appeared!
Su Mo is at the forefront as the top laner. This is his first time on the stage of a world competition.
"EDG! EDG! EDG!"
"Ah! Brother Mozi! I love you!"
"Director! Come on!"
"Meiko, you are beautiful today too!"
Su Mo walked to a position shoulder to shoulder with Huni, turned around, so that the two players faced each other, and then shook hands.
The corners of Huni's mouth were slightly raised, and he was very confident. He could not hide his confidence, as if he had already won.
After shaking hands, Su Mo turned around and walked to his seat.
The equipment has been debugged in advance, put on the headphones and everything is ready!
Rita explained: "Let's enter the BP of the first game. This time EDG is on the red side and SKT is on the blue side!"
BP begins and the BAN phase begins.
SKT chooses BAN to drop the pig girl, male gun and wine barrel.
EDG bans out poodles, blind monks and spiders.
Seeing this BP, the three commentators were dumbfounded on the spot!
· Guan Zeyuan exclaimed: "Huh? Both sides targeted the jungle position at the same time, six BAN junglers! EDGBAN dropped three carnivorous junglers, while SKT BANed everything the director could use. 」
I remember having an ominous premonition: "The director feels that he is about to be breached. SKT is coming fiercely. It is definitely a BP tailor-made for him!"
