LOL: Can’t I play other games professionally?

Chapter 137 Why do we have to start a group chat after the game?
Early the next morning.

After returning to the club, Lin Ruo got up quickly, washed and dressed, and then went out to take a taxi to participate in the Overwatch offline event.

Sitting in a taxi, bored and unable to sleep, he stared at his phone and browsed the latest information.

With MSI just around the corner, Riot Games has implemented some changes to the rules this year, with the previous wildcard rounds now being held in a play-in format. LMS and NA, two of the five regions that underperformed at last year's World Championship, will compete in the play-in stage, competing against wildcard teams from other regions for the three qualifying spots.

Although LPL performed poorly in the World Championship, they had at least two teams in the quarterfinals last year, so they qualified for the group stage without any suspense.

Lin Ruo glanced at the participating teams. TSM representing North America and FW from Taiwan Province will participate in the qualifying round. It is clearly just a scam.

Riot is just trying to increase the attention of the foreplay. Otherwise, it will be like before with all the unknown wildcard teams fighting each other, and there will be no traffic.

Together with the GAM team from Vietnam, the three teams should be able to qualify.

The first day of the play-in round will be tonight in the early hours of the morning.

If you pay a little attention to the schedule, you will find that the teams that have entered the official group stage, in addition to Guodian, are the European champion G2 and the three-time champion SKT.

After receiving the message, Lin Ruo opened the forum and checked the scoring posts and the amazing comments to pass the time.

Just one night after the finals, the discussion in the forum is still in full swing, with various posts appearing one after another.

The haters now criticize him whether he loses or wins. Half of them are looking forward to his departure and the other half want to see him make a fool of himself at MSI.

[EDG3:0WE, I'll send the players, you guys give the scores.]

MVP Lin Ruo:

I like your performance on the field, and I love your post-game team-ups.

[God damn it, I hope you're the genius who leads the LPL's revival, and not the second-generation Gdov.]

[Ice Jinchūriki, a single arrow brings peace to the world. ]

I don't have high expectations. I just hope our MSI results stay the same as they did in 15.

[After solo-killing Faker at MSI, I immediately followed him on Weibo and added a fan sign.]

[Don't be ridiculous, qualifying from the group stage is considered a success.]

[Believe first, believe later, and believe again. Maintain absolute faith in the Forest God. No doubts exist.]

"Since Master Lin has said he's going to win, it's not unreasonable for me to support him. After all, I won't be the one to get slapped in the face if he gets slapped in the face."

[This year, MSI EDG has a high chance of winning the championship. Don't ask me why, because Zzitai started researching it last year.]

Are you using last year's research to counter this year's SKT?

Last year, they said they were too strong to go. Obviously, going this year means the overall strength of the participating teams is weak, so winning is a sure thing.

[Promise me, don't let me see your Lee Sin at MSI. If possible, don't let me see you.]

[Little Peanut: Mr. Ming, every encounter in this world is a reunion after a long separation.]

[Brazilian wildcard team INTZ: What a coincidence, I thought so too.]

【Lin Ruo: What are you talking about, Peanut?】

【A Nidalee rank messed up. 】

In the second game of the MSI finals, the Waste Factory was once again defeated by Peanut, and EDG fell behind 0:2. Then, Lin Ruo kicked the Waste Factory away and took the jungle position. He locked onto Nidalee. Oh my god, Peanut was so scared that he fainted.

[Fuck, seriously, if you want to win, I suggest Lin Ruo play jungle. SKT's strongest player this season is Peanut. You can't win if you don't play in the right position.]

I have to say you're incredibly lucky. You relied on Deft for the past two years, and now you're relying on Lin Gou again this year. I'm just not sure if his Worlds performance will be as poor as Dai's. We'll know at MSI.

Support Meiko
【Stable performance.】

[I heard that Lin Ruo doesn't usually play duo with you to build chemistry, so why the hell don't you know how to play PUBG with us?]

[MSI, you and Lin Ruo's bottom lane is the only one I think is viable. It feels even more powerful than the Alpaca combination.]

Jungler Condi
I tried my best, one of the few people who played as a human being. Without you, WE would not have made it to the finals.

The second one is also quite abstract, but its flaws outweigh its merits.

[I was so eager to do something that it backfired. I should learn more from Ai Loli and just protect the bottom lane. What, the Korean bottom laner is a CS? Just ignore what I said.]

[I helped once, but the bottom lane died twice. If I were you, I would have thrown a chair at you long ago.]

-

Bottom lane Mystic
【Sir, kneel down.】

[You've been stepped on three times. You're amazing! I wish all Koreans were as bad as you.]

What's the point of being handsome? Lin Gou is more handsome and stronger than you. Is he proud? Yes, he has always been proud.

EDG is heading to MSI. Lin Shen will use you as a sacrifice to scare the monkeys. SKT will do whatever they want.

[ATM? No, a fully automatic money printing machine.]

[As a 60E, I really can't accept this. Do you know how painful it is to be beaten by your mortal enemy? ]

After scrolling to the bottom of the post and finishing her meal, Xiao Mi arrived at the event venue.

……

At 11: AM at the LGD base, the dedicated Wei Shen also got up early to wash up and continue to devote himself to the goal of winning the PUBG game. After playing a few games to relax, Wei Shen called someone and said, "Hey, buddy, haven't you finished your business yet?"

"I'm still playing Overwatch for fun. I don't have time. Let's talk tonight."

Lin Ruo's response came from the other end of the phone, occasionally accompanied by game sounds and cheers from the audience.

"You still have time to answer the phone while playing an entertainment game? Who are you kidding?" Wei Shen couldn't help but complain.

"If you think my skills are bad, just tell me. If I harass you again, I'll be a dog."

"Who said you can't hold a gun with one hand? We're all geniuses. Brother Wei, don't question me. If it's nothing serious, I'll just hang up first."

"You wait."

Wei Shen, who was skeptical, turned on the speakerphone and put down the phone. He searched for the official Overwatch live broadcast room on the platform, and what came into his sight was the preview event of the anniversary offline entertainment game.

When I clicked on it, I saw that in the player seat in the small box in the lower left corner, there was actually someone sitting in the corner, talking on the phone and controlling the hero at the same time.

Wei Shen rubbed his eyes uncertainly, looked at it again carefully, then stiffly picked up the phone and muttered softly:

"Well brother, it seems you are the real genius."

"No, you can't play without him, right? You can still kill in ranked."

Pyl, an internet-addicted teenager who also got up early in the morning, was completely confused and had no idea what Wei Shen was planning.

It would be fine if a rookie like him needed someone to guide him.

But it's obvious that Wei Shen is not that kind of person. After all, he is a talented young man. It's not only easy for him to win the game but also smooth sailing to get points in the chicken.

"What do you know? I'm actively cultivating comradeship." Wei Shen disagreed and started the ranking game.

Just yesterday, after a night of deep thought, he decided to switch to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, restarting his career and creating a glorious career.

Wei Shen knew that he was very strong, but relying on his own strength, it would be difficult for him to conquer the world and defeat a group of foreigners.

But if we can get Lin Ruo to join us, wouldn't the two of us be truly invincible when we join forces?

Of course, they just won the championship yesterday and are currently very popular in LPL. It is definitely unrealistic to expect them to switch to gaming and engage in new development.

However, when Wei Shen thought about the days after winning the S5 Summer Championship, he had some thoughts in his mind.

It is possible that his strength will decline in a year or two, and his faith in Taoism will be broken. After all, this is how his genius career has ended.

After winning the S5 Summer Championship, I thought I would be a god, but when I turned around and won the World Championship, everything turned out to be shit.

Most of my enthusiasm for LOL has been completely gone.

Besides, this kid is much more crazy than he was before, and he has attracted a lot of haters. Just yesterday's prediction on Weibo alone angered countless forum haters who couldn't wait to criticize him as soon as he won the championship.

When the results fail, thousands of haters will attack online, and who can withstand it?

Anyway, practice more duos to build relationships, maybe you can take advantage of the downturn in the future...

Wei Shen was so happy just thinking about it.

Coming to his senses, there was actually another possibility in his mind, that is, this kid would be invincible and sweep the world championship.

Tired of playing in the league, he took the initiative to change careers and formed a peerless duo with him.

It is possible, but the probability is low.

Although Wei Shen believed in his heart that his talent was a level higher than his own.

However, the World Championship is not that easy to win, after all, there is a big devil.

Forget it, let’s get through the European and American regions first.

Pyl was too lazy to pay attention to the patriarch who was preoccupied with his many thoughts. He was scrolling through the B station slices and laughing like a pig.

EDG's official Weibo account updated a one-hour documentary this morning about the team's championship journey from the regular season to date. It was originally just some polite words of criticism and encouragement, just to fool fans and promote the team spirit.

Who knew that some funny people and UP hosts would find many famous memes in it, edit them a little and post a video, and it would go viral.

"What kind of meme is this? Is it funnier than the one in last year's EDG documentary where the manager, Xiao Xiong, spread his hands?"

Wei Shen didn't understand, and when he turned his head, he also burst out laughing. There were quite a lot of memes, almost all of which were created by Lin Ruo, the abstract ghost.

The first is A Guang’s sophistry in the match with Snake when Lin Ruo questioned him.

【How did you get beaten like this? You have to pull it out.】

[I'm really struggling. If you don't believe me, go watch the video. I'm trying so hard to block the flaws. Who knew this sword lady's damage is so high?]

The most famous thing he did was probably his speech in the locker room after the game against VG.

Facing Abu's scolding, Lin Ruo spread his hands and argued confidently: "Besides, what's the level of the opposing bot lane? What's my level? That AD Xuanxuan is such a loser. If I let him shit on my head, how will I survive if the news gets out?"

The video, which lasted less than ten minutes, had exceeded 400,000 views in two hours. The comment section was full of check-ins and messages, and the data kept rising.

[This is making me laugh to death. This guy is playing a game, while Lin Gou and A Guang are performing crosstalk.]

[Arresting a teammate on the spot for committing a crime, Lin Gou undoubtedly puts pressure on his teammates.]

Xuanxuanpi expressed that he was offended.

[VG was relegated in the Spring Split by LDL team DAN. Xuanxuan's skin is just a colored pen, there's nothing wrong with it.]

[I'm Xuanxuanpi, I'm going to start a live broadcast right now and become a big anchor. ]

[I'm so happy! This is the new version of the Bear's Hands-Spreading Bible. I'm here to answer any questions the factory manager doesn't dare to answer.]
