Chapter 14 Summer Season Opening Game

 During an in-depth exchange with head coach Mingzhe, Zhong Sen could clearly feel the ambition of the other party and the club.

However, OMG's current staffing situation is not optimistic, and the club management has not set its goals for the summer season too high. Stabilizing the semi-finals of the playoffs is considered a success.

I'm taking a big step, but it's easy to get caught.

This year’s S7 Global Finals, LPL has three places.

Among them, the summer champion and the second-placed player in terms of points throughout the year are the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds respectively.

As for the third seed, it will be determined by the team with the highest points in a bubble match.

OMG's management is very pragmatic and knows that competing for the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds is unrealistic, so it is starting to prepare for the bubble game now.

With the top four already in the spring split, if we can win another top four, the points advantage will be very obvious, and we can also be ranked higher in the bubble competition.

At the end of the conversation, Mingzhe did some psychological building work for Zhong Sen and mobilized him to actively prepare for the summer games.

"Although you joined OMG temporarily, you were in a hurry and your cooperation with your teammates is not tacit enough."

"But I promise you, as long as you train hard and maintain a good competitive state, you will definitely get the chance to play."

"Thank you, coach!"

Hearing this, Zhong Sen looked at Mingzhe and his eyes were filled with gratitude.

"I will definitely work hard to help the team improve."

"It is our duty to rebuild the glory of the dark forces!"

"Okay, it's okay. Go and train quickly." Mingzhe waved his hand.

"Goodbye, coach."

Zhong Sen got up and walked out of the office, returned to the water dispenser, and began today's journey of ranking points.

He put on his headphones and stared at the screen intently, looking for matches and entering the game.

Throughout the day, Zhong Sen was swimming in Summoner's Rift, leading three directions.

They even had a seven-game winning streak, and their winning points also increased steadily.

That afternoon, OMG also made an appointment with NB for a training match.

However, even if it is a training match now, it has nothing to do with Zhong Sen.

Taking advantage of dinner time, Zhong Sen asked Leng Shao about the situation of the training match.

In this training match, OMG and NB fought fiercely for three games.

NB took the lead first, and then OMG pulled back the game, and finally NB narrowly won 2:1.

After dinner, Zhong Sen replenished his energy and devoted himself to ranking points again.

As a substitute player, there is only one best way to attract the attention of the head coach, and that is to score points!

As long as you can reach the first district or the top ten in the Korean server, the coaching staff will more or less give you several opportunities to play.

On the contrary, if a player who has not proven himself on the court hangs out among the masters and diamonds all year round, he will definitely not be able to impress the coach.

Opportunities are often reserved for those who are prepared.

In the past few days, Zhong Sen has maintained a high-intensity ranking every day. He has reached 700 points as the strongest king in the first district, and is currently ranked around 150.

Although the number of active professional players in the first zone is not as high as that of the Korean server, there are still many unique players, and the ranking scores have also increased.

The scores of the top ten goalkeepers have exceeded 1,400 points.

If Zhong Sen wants to squeeze into the top ten in the first region, he still needs at least 700 win points.

As for the strongest king ranked first, his victory point is an exaggerated two thousand points or more.

There are still a few days left before the start of the summer split. Although I can't reach the first place in the national server, I still have a chance to rush into the top ten.

After setting short-term goals for himself, Zhong Sen was full of fighting spirit and kept ranking until one o'clock in the morning.

In the next few days, as the opening game of the summer split gets closer and closer, the entire OMG team has entered a state of intense preparation.

Zhong Sen works hard to rank every day, and the score of the trumpet is also rising steadily, reaching 1200 points.

There is only less than two hundred points between us and the top ten in District 1.

During this period, Zhong Sen also participated in a training match with the team. The opponent was the DAN team that just entered the LPL this summer.

Zhong Sen is no stranger to the DAN team.

As the predecessor of Galaxy Battleship TES, the current DAN team is all grassroots.

The more famous one is the Cat King who moved from the player seat to the commentary box.

In this training match, Zhong Sen’s performance was very average and quite satisfactory.

Although the process was somewhat tortuous, in the end OMG won the last training match before the opening game with a score of 2:1.

In the blink of an eye, the time came to June 8, and the LPL Summer Split officially kicked off.

This year's Summer Split, LPL has a total of 12 teams participating, and lots will be drawn according to the Spring Split rankings, eventually forming two groups A and B.

The six teams in Group A are: WE, EDG, IM, IG, Snake, and DAN.

Zhong Sen's OMG is in Group B, and its opponents in the same group include RNG, NB, OMG, JDG, LGD and SNG.

For this summer season, LPL officials have specially arranged for RNG and OMG to participate in the opening match.

The two teams are both in the all-China class, and both are the top four in the spring competition. They compete against each other and are full of topics.

As early as a few days ago, the official began to promote the opening match overwhelmingly, attracting the attention of a large number of viewers.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, two hours before the official start of the game, Zhong Sen had already followed the team to the competition venue.

Although today is only a working day on Thursday, the atmosphere at the scene is still very lively, and there are also many spectators coming to watch the game.

Before the opening game begins, there will be an opening ceremony performance.

The players from both sides appeared on the stage, and the audience burst into warm applause and cheers.

In this game, Zhong Sen was undoubtedly on the bench and could only watch the game in the team lounge.

In this game, both sides spared no effort and formed the strongest lineup they could.

OMG has five people here, top laner Xiyang, jungler Jiekou, mid laner Leng Shao, bottom laner Sima Laothi and assistant Xiaowu.

RNG's lineup is top laner Letme, jungler Mala Xiangguo, mid laner Xiaohu, bottom laner Wuxin and assistant Xiaoming.

Judging from the strength on paper, RNG is undoubtedly stronger.

Moreover, in the just-concluded Demacia Cup, RNG, as the only team to break through among the top four in the Spring Split, surged all the way to win the German Cup, sweeping away the decline in the Spring Split and announcing a strong comeback.

As for OMG, both in terms of past record and personnel lineup, it is three points weaker.

They were relegated twice last spring and summer, and the top four in this spring's playoffs can barely be considered a dark horse.

Moreover, due to the serious injury of jungler World6 in the spring split and the absence of the summer split, OMG's strength will be reduced by 20% after sending Jiekou, let alone RNG's opponent.

In online pre-match voting, more than 70% of the audience were optimistic that RNG could defeat OMG.

In addition to die-hard fans of the RNG team, there are also many neutral LPL viewers.

Even some rational OMG fans are not optimistic that their team can defeat RNG.
