When Gu Xing jumped off the bus, his first feeling was that it was very windy today.

As the global finals came to an end, it was already November in Incheon and it was early autumn. The daytime temperature was basically hovering in the single digits above zero. Gu Xing and others had to wear thicker clothes to keep out the cold.

But even so, when the bleak autumn wind blew wantonly, everyone still trembled.

"It's strange, I remember it wasn't that cold in Incheon in the autumn..." The first thing Chaowei did when he got off the car was to stamp his feet, muttered a few words of complaint, and then looked at his teammates again, "Brother Xing, can you adapt?

"

Gu Xing pulled the zipper of his down jacket to the top, covering half of his mouth, and his voice became muffled and muffled.

"It's not a big deal...it was much colder last year in the Bird's Nest finals than today."

This is true.

He was deeply impressed by this. A year ago, the Imperial Capital was filled with biting cold wind. The moment he picked up the Summoner's Trophy, his fingers were almost frozen.

Seeing Gu Xing talking about last year's championship, all members of the VG training team laughed out loud, immersed in that wonderful memory and couldn't extricate themselves.

Chaowei looked envious.

He also wanted to experience what it felt like to hold the Summoner's Trophy...

Stop, stop, stop!

Chovy warned herself sternly in her mind.

He didn't dare to open the champagne too hard, and even fantasizing about holding a glass felt like a sacrilege.

What if you offend the gods and inflict divine punishment on yourself on the field today?

Most people in the Han Kingdom believe in religion, and Chaowei is no exception.

Forget it, now that he is one step away from winning the championship, he would rather believe it or not, and focus on being cautious.

Chovy thought about it and decided to change the topic.

"When the weather is cold, we will eat rice cake soup to warm up... How about we try it after the finals?"

"New year cake soup?" Gu Xing suddenly became interested when he heard this word, "It's done!"

Ningbo, my hometown, is rich in rice cakes made from japonica rice. It is also added to the soup when stewing fish. It is refreshing, elastic and tough.

Gu Xing has not tasted the taste of his hometown for a long time, and he feels nostalgic at the moment. Maybe he can find a similar feeling in Incheon.

It sounds outrageous, but when I think of the country where Incheon is located...

In this Ganges River.

"Speak less," Jin Wenhyuk warned, "so that you don't get upset and have diarrhea before going on stage!"

Everyone fell silent and walked in the cold wind with their mouths covered.

After turning around an intersection from the parking lot, you can see the final venue.

Incheon Munhak Stadium.

"Wow..." Kuro showed a shocked expression and couldn't help but say: "It's so big!"

Although I visited the final venue during the rehearsal yesterday, I was still shocked by the magnificence of Wenhe Stadium.

The design of the ceiling, which is shaped like a sail and a mast, highlights the characteristics of Incheon's coastal city. The overall building is not high, but the edges and corners are obvious and dynamic, and the area is spread out very wide, giving it a full sense of oppression.

The entire venue can accommodate 50,000 people, so the scale is evident!

Among all the sports venues in Hanguo, Wenhe Arena is also ranked among the best. It has also hosted the 2002 World Cup match between KR and Portugal - I can only say that I understand that match.

"I don't think it's as good as the Bird's Nest." Jack said next to him, covering his mouth to block the wind.

"The requirements are really high... This is already good," Gu Xing said with a smile on his face, "Everyone, please work harder and strive to win the championship as soon as possible!"

He led the members of the training department quickly into Wenhe Stadium, a venue destined to be recorded in the history of LPL and even League of Legends e-sports.

The stadium was empty now, but two and a half hours later, there was a huge crowd and roaring sounds!

The four-sided stands that can accommodate 50,000 spectators are now crowded with people, and the noise is not stopping for a moment. Even if the dome is opened to disperse the sound waves created by everyone, it is still noisy.

In the family area in the front row, Gu's mother was so disturbed that she rubbed her ears and muttered something.

"Oh, it's so noisy..."

She likes silence, but now she feels uncomfortable listening to the various tones buzzing in her ears.

"But why are there so many of our own people nearby?" She was puzzled. "It was so confusing that I thought we were in China!"

When I watch my son compete in China, everyone around me speaks Mandarin. When I come to KR to watch a game, everything is still in Chinese. So isn’t it a waste of money for me to buy a plane ticket and apply for a visa?

"Where are the Han people? Why don't they come to watch the finals? Do they not like watching?" Gu's mother said in the most doubtful tone, which was a heart-breaking blow.

Gu Pan took her arm and shook it, "Please... two LPL teams are fighting a civil war in Han Country. Do you think how many locals will come to watch the game?"

Looking around, most of the KR people who came to watch the finals were relatives and friends of the Korean players. For example, Chaowei's family formed a small support group and came to help.

In addition, there were very few Hanguo spectators who came to watch the game. They were obviously mentally disturbed by the scene of "no Korea in Incheon". Before the game, there were a bunch of posts on the Inven forum about ticket transfers, which were really for Hanguo people.

Breaking the defense.

Even the number of people who come to watch the game today is not as good as that of Europeans and Americans!

Although VG was nicknamed the European Killer during this World Championship, it single-handedly sent away the 321st seed in the EU region in the group stage, quarter-finals and semi-finals, but the European audience still

I am willing to buy a ticket to watch this final.

No one else, just because this is Gu Xing's last battle.

For the first person in the history of League of Legends e-sports, they are willing to come and accompany him throughout his career.

"To be honest, Gu Xing has so many supporters..." Gu's mother looked around, her eyes full of support items with Gu Xing's cartoon image on them, and she couldn't help but feel a bit of pride in her tone.

Shen Guanshan, who was traveling with him, sat obediently on the side, keeping silent as a habit. However, his bright eyes had long been bent into a pair of crescent moons, and his gaze was unconsciously directed at the big screen at the scene.

There was still some time before the opening ceremony officially started, and the director showed the specific career data of both teams and key players.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Look!" Gu Pan became energetic and shook his mother's arm vigorously, "I have some credit for this!"

Gu's mother looked around with curiosity on her face, "Where is it?"

"The upper right corner of the big screen!" Gu Pan said with a little anger, "It's such a big E. Mom, can't you even see it?"

"We are the sponsor of this World Championship!" She wanted to show off.

"Oh..." Gu's mother protracted her tone, "I think your brother is more conspicuous."

On the big screen at the scene, Gu Xing's makeup photo was extremely eye-catching - he stood sideways, with one hand behind his back, and the other hand moved forward in an inviting pose, and the two golden stars on his chest were also exposed in front of everyone.

Next to the final makeup photos, there are various data and honors.

2016, 2017 World Championship, 42 wins and 4 losses, winning rate 91.3%, 202 kills, 61 kills, 577 assists, KDA12.77

2017, 2018 MSI champion, 27 wins and 6 losses, winning rate 81.8%, 155 kills, 44 kills, 220 assists, KDA7.61

A total of five LPL championship trophies were won from the summer of 2016 to the summer of 2018, with a total of 185 wins and 23 losses, a winning rate of 88.9%, 1007 kills, 188 kills, and 2200 assists, KDA17.06

The title is even more unpretentious.

The Goat

"...Is the data so outrageous?" Gu Pan found it unbelievable.

"That's natural," Shen Guanshan replied happily, holding his head high and proud, "Can you still question Gu Xing's level?"

At this moment, the LPL live broadcast room was full of people, and they were also discussing Gu Xing's data performance enthusiastically.

[Brother Xing’s card is officially certified by Riot Games as Goat!]

[This is the flag of our LPL. Do you have such flags in other divisions? 】

[The question is, who is the deputy Goat?]

[Of course it’s me... Faker! Well-deserved Executive Deputy Goat! 】

[There is a saying that Brother Yixing’s MSI winning rate is a bit lagging behind. Why is it only in the early 80s? 】

[I guess it’s because I lost more games this year, which directly dragged down my winning rate... But then again, even if it’s 80%, it’s enough to crush the other players]

Next, Riot Director provided the absolute core data corresponding to IG.

The choice was a broiler chicken. After all, before this World Championship, only Song Yijin of the Extreme Team had a certain degree of popularity in the international arena. IG is definitely the best choice to succeed the dog tag.

But at the data level, Rookie is currently completely incomparable with Gu Xing!

After winning the S4OGN Summer Championship at the peak of his debut, Song Yijin entered a long trough period. He only entered the world stage in 2015, but surrendered on National Day that year and was promoted to the top 16, which caused IG to lose face.

In the following two years, he missed the World Championships and didn’t even have the chance to show his face in front of foreign audiences!

The only thing that can be shown is this year's global finals.

12 wins and 2 losses, small game winning rate 85.7%, 15-minute matchup economy difference 443 (1ST), experience lead 280 (1ST), CS lead 22.1 (1ST)...

To be fair, this data is terrifying!

Song Yijin is undoubtedly the anchor of IG. His performance is considered the most stable among the five, and he can often take the lead in opening up situations with his advantages, and help his teammates with their disadvantages.

The four-character mantra left behind by the child You Shen before he retired has finally been confirmed.
To be continued...
