Chapter 351: Three years of anti-snake, five years of simulation(1/3)
At the competition site at Supermarket Square, Snake returned to the backstage after a short interview.
Zuo Wu and the Snake Team staff have packed up everything.
After reinstalling the equipment, everyone immediately set off back to the base.
After their match against EDG tonight, the LPL has officially entered the offseason of the Asian Competition. The next round of matches will not be until July 13th.
Snake has to go back to the base to prepare and participate in the official expedition ceremony recording tomorrow morning. Although it won't take long, the whole morning will be spent going back and forth.
In the afternoon, I will leave for Dalian and officially settle down there.
The other LPL teams are similar, except that they don't have a game today and will be better prepared.
"Everyone go to bed early tonight."
Zuo Wu warned: "There is a rehearsal for the opening ceremony when we go to Dalian, so we don't have a few days to train."
"This time we are fighting at home, so we can't stretch our legs."
"That's necessary!" Flandre responded with a smile.
The Intercontinental Tournament officially begins on July 5, with four LPL teams participating. Just like the 2017 Intercontinental Tournament, if the group stage goes well, the LPL teams will not have to play many games.
The 4-day schedule is relatively easy.
Therefore, everyone hopes that the brother teams in the LPL can do a better job.
"Brother Hao, have you seen the official activities today?"
"I saw it."
Li Hao said to Liu Qingsong: "And Manager Bobby is here too."
"Then why don't you ask him for two figures?"
"The Annie Bear dolls given away today are in limited quantity and are given to fans. I won't join in the fun."
The smart man smiled and said: "The Urgot figure is worth owning."
…
When Snake and his party boarded the bus with their large and small bags, they happened to meet the EDG gang.
An arm quickly landed on Li Hao's shoulder.
Li Hao looked to the side and smiled immediately.
That's right, it's Severn.
"Okay, Kled looked very good today."
The factory manager spoke with a crooked mouth.
"Qi-chan, it's not really a show, it's just average. I don't think it has any impact on you?"
"Why is it not affected?"
The factory director said angrily: "Run to my wild area, sneak attack from behind, and then jump over the tower to kill me. It's very powerful!"
"Nana-chan."
Li Hao spread his hands and said helplessly: "The lower road keeps asking me to go. They say that I am in your wild area, so I have to go."
"Besides, this game really has no impact on your gaming experience."
"I've seen it all. You ate all the F6 in Casa. Isn't that exciting?"
After hearing his words, Jarhead immediately rolled his eyes.
My heart says that I really have nothing to do with you.
He thought again that this person was too courageous and kept hinting in front of him.
You can imagine what it will be like when you are not around.
Li Hao stopped joking and chatted with Seven all the way to the front of the bus.
Li Hao has been recalling the scenes from that year.
The factory director slowly couldn't stand listening anymore, because all Li Hao talked about was his days as a top orderer at EDG.
"Goodbye Dalian."
After leaving a word, Jarhead ran away in a hurry.
Li Hao was happy and said to himself that Sai Wen was not sober. Why don't we see him in Dalian? We will see him tomorrow.
…
On the morning of July 2, Snake came to the officially arranged shooting location. Players from the three teams, RNG, IG, and EDG, all came.
In the six-to-four match in the spring playoffs, RW, which was ranked second in the Eastern Conference at the time, played against Snake first, but was ruthlessly swept by Li Hao, who had returned from injury, causing them to miss the top four.
That means he has no chance of participating in this intercontinental competition.
Li Hao performed a few actions in accordance with the requirements of the column team, and the filming was completed quickly.
He stepped aside and couldn't help but recall what happened in the intercontinental competition that year.
I still vaguely remember that sentence: We will help you get back to the fifth set.
…
That time, the LPL division was still united.
Although there was no Xia in the 2018 Intercontinental Championship, Snake entered the Intercontinental Championship as the spring champion, which caused a huge change in the strength of the entire LPL.
The LPL coaches don't even have to play Tian Ji horse racing in this intercontinental competition. Even if they play their cards, LCK will have trouble holding on.
Currently, the strongest teams in the LCK are KZ and Afs, but KZ is a team that is beaten by Snake.
After the departure ceremony in the morning was completed, the officials did not leave everyone to eat because all the teams had booked their tickets for the afternoon.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the four LPL teams took a flight from Hongqiao and arrived at Zhoushuizi Airport after 1 hour and 55 minutes. When they came out of the airport in Dalian, it was already close to 6 o'clock.
"It feels cooler than the devil."
Dragging his suitcase, Liu Qingsong let out a small sigh.
"So the competition venue was not chosen randomly."
Zuo Wu explained: "Compared to most parts of the country, Dalian's summer is cooler. After all, it is a coastal city. The hottest months are July and August, which are sauna days, but the highest temperature is only about 30 degrees.
"
"It's quite comfortable compared to some hot-stove cities, but it's still quite cool at night. If there's draft, it's a real pleasure. It's just early July, so it's definitely cooler than the Magic City."
Shengqiang's eyes lit up: "You can also have some seafood barbecue and cold beer, right?"
“Seafood barbecue is fine, but wine is fine.”
"Children don't drink."
"Is Pepsi no longer sweet, or is Coca-Cola no longer tasty?"
After listening to Zuo Wu's words, Flandre tilted her head and made a cut.
Liu Qingsong smiled and said:
"You drank a lot of cold beer today. It felt so good. You stretched your crotch on the field. I think Khan on the opposite side would laugh out loud when he picked up corpses on the road."
"After two games, don't say I'm 1.5 anymore, I'm afraid you'll be labeled an F king."
After tearing Shao Xiao's reasoning apart, Flando immediately waved her hand:
"It's okay if you don't want to drink this wine."
"..."
Under the official arrangement of the LPL, the four teams took two cars and arrived at the pre-booked hotel.
Similarly, players from LCK and LMS division teams are all here.
LPL officials have not done anything special.
On the first night, there were no activities scheduled. The uniform teams of several LPL teams got together to coordinate the subsequent schedule.
On the morning of the 3rd, after breakfast, the LPL team headed to Ganjingzi District and arrived at the destination of the trip, the Dalian Sports Center Gymnasium.
This sports building is a special-grade building that can meet the gymnastics competition requirements of the 2013 National Games and can also hold NBA basketball events. It has 18,000 seats and is also a large venue.
Compared to the Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall in the 2017 season, this place is absolutely huge.
Teams from the LMS and LCK regions are here.
They have visited this venue before, but the rehearsal ceremony cannot be held until all teams come together.
For professional teams that have participated in various competition regions for a long time, this kind of rehearsal is very simple. You only need to walk through the scene twice to become familiar with it.
Li Hao saw Li Guapi in the LCK crowd.
This time, he looks obviously "older" than in the S7 season.
To be more precise, there is a kind of fatigue.
To be continued...
