Fierce shooter

Get a spot in the World Championship first.

This was a goal that Li Luo came up with after careful consideration, which he considered to be a very reasonable goal.

Before the rebirth, I had a set of configurations like IG, and I was just one step away from entering the World Championship.

If it's not to enter the World Championship, what's the point of coming to IG?

At this time, Luo Xin looked at the shy young man in front of him with a little surprise in his eyes.

It's so hidden.

For such a humble person, this goal... is so crazy!

You must know that two of the three places in the World Championship can be competed for in the playoffs.

One is the Summer Split champion, who will advance directly and will also be the No. 1 seed.

The other is the team with the highest points in the whole year, which is the team with the highest points among all teams except the Summer Split champion. The sum of the Spring Split ranking and the Summer Split ranking points.

But IG...the ranking points for the spring playoffs are only 10 points!

In contrast, WE, RNG, and EDG, the three most promising teams before IG's rise in the second half, had 90 points, 70 points, and 50 points respectively in the spring split.

Although the points in the summer split will be higher than those in the spring split.

But judging from the current situation, even if IG wins the runner-up in the summer split, it can only score 90 points. The sum of the spring split and summer split is 100 points.

Judging from the current situation where RNG ranks first in the regular season in the AB theater, even if RNG abstains from the summer split, their total points will be 130 points.

This path obviously doesn't work.

Then...the only way to get that spot is...championship?

Luo Xin, who was experienced in the field of hosting, was shocked. She thought Li Luo might have misunderstood.

"Thank you player Shine for accepting our interview, and I hope the IG team can perform well in the playoffs."

Luo Xin calmed down and ended the interview with a smile.

Backstage lounge.

"Brother Luo, your goal is a bit ambitious. Are you just aiming for the championship?"

When Prince Ning saw Li Luo coming back, he came up to him.

"What champion?"

Li Luo was stunned: "I didn't say that."

"They asked about the goal of the playoffs. You answered that you want a spot in the World Championship. With our team's points, if we want to advance to the World Championship through the playoffs, isn't the only way to win the championship?"

Su Xiaoluo next to him also sighed: "You are too young, Li Luo. I am afraid your answer will be misinterpreted by many people. The current network environment in the e-sports circle is not good. If you are not careful, you will be Many fans of the team besieged me.”

Su Xiaoluo's words made Li Luo raise his eyebrows: "Can't we win the championship?"

As soon as these words came out, all the team members present were a little stunned.

Including Rookie, the former dean of the team.

IG is an established and strong team.

Being called a strong team naturally shows their strength.

But a strong team may not have won the championship.

There are thousands of people who want to play professionally.

Which professional player doesn't have one-in-a-million gaming talents to enter the professional circle?

But with so many top gaming talents, only those five can win the championship in the end.

This is just the LPL league.

If it comes to the World Championship, the competition will be even more intense. Behind every competitor that a professional player faces, there is an unimaginably large competitive group.

These players have fought their way out from among their competitive groups.

The memory of the championship is still clear in Rookie's mind.

That was when they defeated the blue team, one of the domestic three-star twins at the time, in the OGN League of the S4 season and successfully won the summer championship trophy.

But since arriving in the LPL division, Rookie feels that he is getting further and further away from the LPL championship trophy.

He often dreams about winning the LPL trophy.

When I woke up, I didn't dare to think about it anymore.

After all, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

Rookie is afraid that he will be disappointed countless times amidst countless expectations, and if this continues, his edge may eventually be blunted.

This is not what he wants.

So Rookie sometimes has to hide his desire to win the championship in the team.

He even felt that he was the only one in the entire team who wanted to win the championship.

Because of this, when Li Luo asked, Rookie suddenly felt a burning feeling deep in his heart.

"Can't we win the championship?"

Li Luo's words echoed in Rookie's chest.

And this rhetorical question also made Su Xiaoluo stunned.

He is not a pure e-sports person.

As the manager of the club and a lawyer who hit it off with Principal Wang, Su Xiaoluo is more concerned about the club's revenue and his own life.

Subconsciously, he didn't understand the feeling after winning the championship, and he couldn't get the corresponding joy and infection.

The team's performance was good. Su Xiaoluo's first reaction was that sponsorship was coming again and he was going to make money again.

Rather than being like the team members, who truly desire to win the championship trophy that symbolizes the glory of the Summoner.

He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Just say that we can’t win the championship? To demotivate the team members in front of so many players?

Or can we win the championship by going against our own will and speaking out against our will?

Su Xiaoluo didn't know.

He could only choose silence.

"What do you think?"

Li Luo looked at Prince Ning.

"Of course I think it's normal even if we win the championship. I always think so."

Prince Ning spread his hands.

Li Luo knew that his answer was sincere.

King Ning is such a player.

Other players may be ecstatic when they actually win the championship trophy, or they may feel lucky.

But King Ning won’t.

He truly believes that his talent deserves a championship.

"What do you think?"

Li Luo looked at Baolan again.

Bao Lan, who was usually very quiet, looked into Li Luo's eyes like a small transparent one. After being silent for a while, he slowly said: "I don't think our bottom lane will lose to any team."

This answer seems to be more of a question than an answer.

But Li Luo smiled.

There is a fatal flaw in Sapphire's style of play.

That is, he is destined to have less trust in adc than most professional assistants.

As one of the partners in the bottom lane, how can you cooperate well if you don't trust your partner?

Although Li Luo can command, not every emergency situation will give Li Luo the opportunity to command.

If you work with a support who doesn't trust you, it's only a matter of time before something goes wrong.

But Baolan's words made Li Luo feel relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Li Luo looked at The shy.

Look at duke, look at the children Youshen, Jackeylove, and west.

The shy stood next to Rookie, grinning: "We are awesome."

"I think we've made a lot of progress."

The child Youshen also smiled: "Maybe we can give it a try."

"I think it's okay."

Duke also said in somewhat broken Chinese.

"Don't look at me, I'm still a substitute."

Jackeylove chuckled: "But I'm optimistic about you."

West is not in a good mood today.

But under this situation, he hesitated for a moment and then said: "We have a chance."

Coach Mafa stood nearby, his eyes a little complicated.

There is excitement and surprise inside.

As a coach, he can feel that there is a cohesion growing in this small training room.

Maybe they still need time to hone.

But isn’t the playoffs the best training space?

By the time the playoffs are over, how far can this IG grow?

Mafa is looking forward to it.

"So, there's no harm in us giving it a try."

Li Luo stretched out his hand.

Followed by Ning Wang, Rookie, The shy, and Child God.

A group of people with different sizes, big and small, fat and thin, gathered together.

But their palms and their eyes were all focused on one place.

"come on!"

"come on!"

Outside the lounge.

Everyone from EDG who was about to go on stage happened to pass by IG's lounge.

Then he was startled by the sound coming from the lounge.

"Let me go, what's going on with these people? If you don't know, you think they are going to play."

Mouse touched his nose, looking confused.

Mingkai took a deep look at the door of the IG training room, his eyes deep.

"Let's go, we must win this game. I don't want to directly encounter such an IG."

Meiko said.

"Winning is inevitable. Do you understand the value of our Li Rucan's 14 MVP awards?"

iboy laughed.

This showdown between them and WE will truly determine the final ranking of the playoffs.

This game is the final battle of the LPL Summer Split in the true sense.

…

The IG team returned to the base.

Since there was no party, Su Xiaoluo naturally ordered takeout for all the players.

Putting aside everything else, Su Xiaoluo's arrangements for the IG players are still very good in terms of diet.

He is best at eating, drinking and having fun.

In addition, the club is not short of money.

Just make the arrangements and that's it.

Everyone in IG gathered around the takeaway table to watch the showdown between WE and EDG.

On their way back, EDG won the first game.

However, the second game between the two sides was particularly bloody. In the end, Kandi transformed into the Son of the Dragon and successfully grabbed a big dragon and a small dragon to complete the comeback.

Mafa frowned at this game. WE was actually sluggish for two weeks in the middle of the summer split.

But after that, Emperor Kang fiercely criticized it, and the reputation of Son of the Dragon was completely established.

This state...if they meet WE in the playoffs, it might be a bit difficult to handle.

However, EDG soon showed what true domestic dominance is.

In the third game, Mingkai turned around and grabbed Kandi's baron, avenging his loss in the second game. At the same time, he also gave Kandi a hard lesson in his ability to start a team.

When the two sides finally played for 42 minutes, EDG successfully won the game with a 1-for-5 team battle.

Watching the WE base explode, Mafa stood up and quickly went to the whiteboard to list a points chart.

By the end of this game, the LPL playoff seats and rankings are all finalized.

According to the logic of the official playoff schedule announced in advance, it is not difficult for mafa to list the opponents that IG will face in the playoffs.

Li Luo also looked at the whiteboard in front of him.

After EDG defeated WE, they ranked first in Group A points.

Due to IG's five-game winning streak in the second half and the small score leading WE by 1 point, IG ranked second in Group A with the same record of 11-5.

On the overall list, RNG, the first place in Group B, ranks first with one more points than EDG.

In other words, among the eight teams in the playoffs, IG ranks third.

To enter the finals, IG needs to play two BO5s.

In the words of my opponent...

Li Luo's eyes glanced downward.

Based on the state of the game and training during this period, Li Luo roughly judged the first opponent they would face.

"Our first game in the playoffs should be against NB, right? This team defeated us three to zero in the spring playoffs, and we also lost the regular season game in the summer season."

Prince Ning, who was sitting next to Li Luo, smiled and said to himself.

"Well, we need to find a place."

Rookie responded and squeezed his hand.

In the summer regular season, he chose roaming functional heroes in two games, but was suppressed by NB's mid laner Coco with strong heroes.

This is a shame for Rookie.

Li Luo, on the other hand, had a very open mind.

In the summer game, he was a substitute and didn't play.

But in this playoffs, he... has to be firmly in the starting lineup.
