LOL: The No. 1 Succubus in the eSports Circle

Chapter 107 If you have the guts, go to RNG for a trial to be the top laner, and you’ll get it!

"In addition, I can give you another guarantee. As long as you haven't signed a contract with another club, the position of the Snake team's center will always be reserved for you!"

ensure?

If this was said by Guo Hao, then it would be somewhat credible.

But coming from the mouth of you, "Jiangzuo Wulang", it sounded very sincere, but Cui Ze didn't dare to believe it at all.

Even if it is a contract written in black and white, if one really wants to default on the debt, all he needs is a thick skin. Can a verbal guarantee be credible?

However, the salary is still reliable.

As we all know, the Snake team has been spending money to strengthen its team every year. I don’t know whether the team has become stronger, but the players’ salaries have indeed increased a lot.

But Cui Ze doesn't care much about salary.

He is very clear about his current situation. As a League of Legends e-sports player, he has traffic but not enough achievements to show for it.

He has the traffic, and if he just wants to make money, he can just rely on his face to do live streaming well, and earning a million or even tens of millions a year will not be a problem.

But Cui Ze is not willing to be just an internet celebrity. He has an e-sports dream in his heart. If he wants to realize this e-sports dream, no matter which LPL team he joins, salary is not the primary issue he has to consider.

Whether the team lineup has the strength to challenge for the league championship and a place in the World Championship is the primary issue he needs to consider!
The top and jungle of Snake team, Saint Spear + SofM, are still very strong.

Lao Qian had a very good reputation in 15 and 16, and he has always been firmly known as a talented domestic top laner. However, the team's performance in 17 and 18 has been unsatisfactory, and his reputation has also deteriorated a lot.

But Cui Ze knew very well that Li Xuanjun was the only domestic S-League champion top laner in his previous life, and his rarity was second only to the domestic S-League mid laner.

As for SofM Li Guangwei, who is from Vietnam, he is also a very talented, self-aware and creative player. He has a unique way of thinking in the jungle and solid basic skills.

SN was able to reach the championship and runner-up finals as the third seed in the S10 World Championship, and SofM and Sheshe’s contributions to the team were the most indispensable.

The "capital injection" that Zuo Wu mentioned that needs to be kept confidential may be a secret that cannot be told to others, but for Cui Ze it is an obvious answer.

In the original time and space, at the opening ceremony of the LPL 2019 Spring Season, the person representing the Snake team was the future boss of LNG - Li Ning Group Executive Director and Extraordinary China Sports CEO Li Qilin.

It cost a lot of money to complete the brand upgrade of the club from Snake to Lining Gaming, so Li Qilin did not invest too much money in the team members in the first two years, and even sold the Snake team veteran, Saint Spear, at the end of 20.

Therefore, regardless of whether Zuo Wu’s guarantee was sincere or not, at least when it came to the formation of the team lineup, it was difficult for Cui Ze, who had a God’s perspective, to feel satisfied.

However, he did not refuse directly. He only said that he needed to go to a few more teams for trials and would reply as soon as possible after comprehensive consideration.

evening.

In a private room of an unknown high-end hotpot restaurant in Chongqing, the Snake Team and today's guests gathered together, toasting and laughing throughout the meal.

As for the topic of discussion at the table, it naturally and inevitably focused on Cui Ze.

"Come on, come on, everyone raise your glasses!"

"cheers!"

"Fuck, Cui Ze, your Akali is so fucking amazing. You're the real C if I give it to you!"

"It's not just Akali as the carry, right? I was also moved by Syndra in the third game. The laning suppression and roaming support, no kidding, she's even more powerful than Li Yuanhao!"

"Can RNG shut up? Cui Ze came to our Snake team for a tryout, why do you want to kidnap him?"

"Hey, hey, that's not right. He hasn't signed a contract with your Snake team yet, right, Cui Ze?"

Everyone at the table turned their attention to him, making Cui Ze want to run away.

Don’t look at me like that, brothers. I’ll be shy if you keep looking at me like that.

He directly threw the topic back to Zzitai: "Brother Tai, stop teasing me. If you continue like this, I will directly apply for the top lane position at RNG and make you unable to even play as a substitute, okay?"

"Hahahahahaha——" everyone immediately burst into laughter.

His posture was a little blunt, he picked up the glass and drank the remaining half of the beer in one gulp.

He had already drunk three cups of wine before, and after taking another gulp, Zizhi was already drunk, and he shouted loudly:
"Come on! Come if you have the guts! If you dare to come to RNG for a tryout, don't even mention me as a substitute, I can guarantee you the starting position for Yan Junze, just go and you'll get it!"

After this sentence was shouted, the atmosphere at the table suddenly became a little subtle.

Because he had a God's perspective, Cui Ze knew that Zizi was probably drunk and blurted out his true feelings, so he didn't dare to respond after listening. He could only pick up the wine glass and sip it, trying to wait for someone to come to the rescue.

As teammates who had played in the game for a year, as well as good friends in the e-sports circle, Brother Saint Spear, Brother Crystal and others also noticed that Zizi's performance was somewhat serious, so they couldn't help but have doubts in their hearts.

They are not afraid that Cui Zezhen will listen to Zzitai and go to RNG to try out for the top lane position.

Instead, based on the conversation with Zzitai after the Worlds, and the "nonsense" he just said under the influence of alcohol, I felt that I had vaguely guessed something.
RNG entered invisible mode after the World Championship. In addition to the apology on October 10, the Weibo account only posted a message on November 22 to congratulate IG on winning the championship.

As for the post about the loss to G10 on October 20, it has been criticized by more than 2 people, and RNG is still being criticized on other social networking software. In particular, RNG and LPL officials have not released the game audio as requested by fans and viewers, which has led to malicious rumors that "RNG's quarterfinal match was a fake" becoming more and more popular.

In such an environment of public opinion, I believe that every RNG player and even club staff will feel bad. Even if someone in the team has the idea of ​​retiring, it is a normal thing.

Competition is like this, whether it is traditional sports competition or emerging e-sports.

With great hopes and countless expectations, we strived for historical honor, but ended up in a sloppy failure. With the huge gap between the grand dream and the bleak reality, no one can adjust their mentality in a short time.

Even Faker can't do it, let alone the RNG players.

As if he realized that he had disrupted the happy atmosphere at the table, he scratched his head in an awkward manner, said "I have to pee urgently, I need to go to the toilet", and then got up and left the private room.

The room was silent for two seconds, and then Zhu Kai immediately spoke to liven up the atmosphere:
"Come on, come on! Keep your hands busy, have another drink, another drink!"

There is one advantage to a dinner party with a lot of people: as long as there is someone to invite them, the people can immediately get into a happy mood.

After the water was released, Ziti went to the sink again, took off his glasses, and splashed cold water on his face in an attempt to wake up quickly.

He laid on the sink with his hands, gasping for breath.

Even he who did not participate in the world competition was like this. People like Yan Junze would probably be even more depressed at this moment.

"Brother Tai, will you still play next year?" A man walked up to him and asked while washing his hands.

Zizi leaned against the sink, and faced this question, looking down at the rushing water and fell silent.

Because he was not wearing glasses, the world in his eyes was filtered through a hazy filter, just like his career of the past six or seven years, like a dream.

It seems as if all the past is floating before my eyes, but when I try to touch it with my hands, I find that it is just a pool of flowing water.

Can be seen and touched, yet cannot be grasped.

"I don't know, I really don't know, alas." Ziti looked up at himself in the mirror and sighed helplessly.

"I started playing very early. I just turned 21 this year, so I'm not too old. But after playing for six or seven years, I feel really tired. And don't be fooled by my smiling face. I know my own weight."

"Just like you said." He suddenly turned his head and looked at Cui Ze: "If I were really strong enough, I wouldn't be Yan Junze's substitute. RNG with Yan Junze is in the quarterfinals. It will be the same if I replace him. The outcome will not be changed."

Cui Ze smiled silently. It turns out that you are self-aware of your sneaky behavior.

Yes, after all, live streaming is for the live streaming effect. If it is not for making money or for living, who would be willing to act like a clown in front of the camera?

Of course, you are indeed a fun-loving person, there is no doubt about that.

"There are some things that I, as an outsider, shouldn't ask, but as a slime monster, I can't help but ask." Cui Ze said in a calm tone: "Brother Tai, can RNG maintain the current lineup next year?"

"Are you really an RNG fan?"

"Of course, what do you think?"

“I thought you were just a hype guy.”

"I don't deny that they are riding on the popularity, but I really like the RNG team, especially after Shi Senming joined."

"Oh, right." Zhizi suddenly realized and nodded: "I almost forgot that you and Shi Senming are good friends. It seems that you have known him for a long time, right?"

"Yes, we have known each other since 15. We often played together in a duo queue at that time. Shi Senming thought I was a bad player and preferred to play with Yu Wenbo."

"."

For some reason, Zizhi was silent for a while. After putting on his glasses, he looked at Cui Ze carefully.

"If you really like RNG, and if you want to help Xiao Ming, I really suggest you give RNG a try. Apart from anything else, as long as you can stabilize your strength at the level of today's training match, with Xiao Wu here, it will be no problem for us to take you to the World Championship."

Cui Ze still believed this sentence.

No matter how many black spots Uzi has, it is difficult to conceal his strong strength in his peak period. If he in 23 can have 18% of the strength of 19 and , how could EDG fail to get a ticket to the World Championship?
just
Cui Ze raised his hand and pointed at himself: "Me? Go to RNG to try out for the top laner?"

"It's not impossible. After all, you have Akali and Irelia in your hero pool. If you practice Aatrox, you can also play Ryze and Lily."

Zzitai analyzed it carefully, and then added: "If you really want to play mid, it's not that you don't have a chance, but you have to go to RNG to understand the specific situation."

"I'll talk to Manager Kwon tomorrow. If he's interested in you, then I really suggest you go to RNG for a trial." After saying this, Zzitai patted Cui Ze's arm and walked away.

"Oh, right." He seemed to remember something as he walked to the bathroom door.

"If you pass the tryout and are willing to stay with RNG, it's best to bring a lawyer with you when you sign the contract."
