We are tired of winning championships, and we still need youth training?

Chapter 164 Bin: This time, the outcome will not change.

As dusk fell, the scene was already packed with people.

With the official implementation of the home-and-away system, many matches have to be played across the country, which is, in a sense, a kind of torture for the players.

Of course, this also gave the contestants an "excuse":
I'm not used to the change in environment, I haven't rested well, and I'm not used to the bumpy ride.

I'll get scolded anyway if I lose, so I'll just find an excuse first.

Today's match, however, didn't involve that kind of travel fatigue.

IG is the home team for this event, so the match will naturally be held in Shanghai.

Most of the LPL teams' clubs are located in Shanghai; those that are close by can be reached by just a short walk.

Naturally, those excuses disappeared.

Can't beat it?
That's food!

The contestants had not yet taken the stage, but this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the online comments and the audience at the scene.

[Isn't it true that IG was eliminated by RNG in the Demacia Cup? This is a grudge match!]

[This is ridiculous, isn't IG just a mid-tier team now?]

[So many of Xinghe's IG fans have left, he's having a tough time.]

Who knows what he was thinking? He brought it on himself.

What exactly happened to IG after S9?

As is well known, conspiracy theories have always been prevalent in the LPL.

IG is no exception.

S9 clearly had the potential to compete for another year, yet they abruptly disbanded.

To viewers who are unaware of the details, it certainly seems absurd.

Besides these genuine casual viewers, there were naturally fans and haters from both teams taking turns appearing on stage.

This chaotic situation reached its peak when the pre-match interviews were broadcast.

First up is Gala, the AD carry player from RNG.

His remarks were not particularly radical; in fact, they could be described as modest.

"I think IG is still a very strong team. After beating them last time, I think we know how to play against them. I'm very excited to face them again this time. I hope we can win without any surprises."

He started every sentence with "I think," indicating that it was just his own subjective opinion.

He also took the opportunity to praise IG.

Finally, he expressed his determination.

Their emotional intelligence is quite high.

When the camera switched to Viper, his remarks were not violent.

However, the friendly remarks made by both ADs aroused dissatisfaction among the viewers.

[Wait, what's going on? Is this a speech at a kindergarten talent show?]

Where are my witty remarks? I'm going to die without them!

[The factory needs saving!]

[Boring, I want to see a river of blood! 】

Fortunately, RNG took the initiative to launch an attack.

Xiao Ming, the assistant, looked at the camera with a grin:

"I feel pretty happy. We've studied IG the most, so it's great to be able to play against them right now."

"I think we should win 3-0, because their bot lane seems pretty passive, while our bot lane is quite strong."

"If we play seriously, we should be able to easily crush the enemy bot lane today."

The audience immediately perked up.

Trash talk, trash talk, isn't all that's heard from an aggressive and crazy person?
[Insanely crazy!]

[Handsome! Brilliant!]

[Wow, he's so confident!]

Before IG fans could say anything, Uzi's fans were already unhappy.

What does it mean to say that "our bot lane is pretty strong right now"?
Does that mean you think the bot lane wasn't strong before?
How brave!
I think you, Xiaoming, have been eating too many red beans and are missing someone.

Without the slightest hesitation, Uzi's fervent fans immediately began breathing on Xiaoming and RNG.

What is Ming doing? What is he pretending to be?

[Haha, without Uzi, what use is RNG's bot lane?]

[This guy's been lying down and winning, and he's still putting on airs! IG, kill him!]

This is the kind of professionalism that RNG players exhibit; everyone should avoid them.

After Uzi retired, RNG fans and his fans became enemies.

There are many royal trolls, but how could there possibly be more than Godzilla (GSL)?

With this external force, the online opinion in the bullet comments instantly reversed.

Xu Xinghe and Rookie's fans really can't beat RNG's.

But if you add Godzilla, it's a completely different story.

Godzilla: We unite!

If you can beat RNG, then you're HXD!

Xiaoming's trash talk is really good, but the problem is that IG had an advantage during the recording, as they were recording behind RNG.

So Missing had naturally figured out how to deal with it.

He looked somewhat puzzled in the video.

Do you think RNG's bot lane can crush us?

The host replied, "Yes."

Missing scratched her head.

"To be honest, I'm actually a little scared."

Just as the comments section was filled with "???" and "cowardly", he changed the subject.

"After all, the puppy has always been quite good, and Xiaoming's teamwork with him is also quite good."

Audience members: ? ? ?
Barrage:? ? ?
RNG fans: You son of a bitch—

You must be Osamu Hizai, Osamu Dazai's son!

Give you face?!
Dare to challenge me? (JPG)
Missing's words are really inhuman.

He couldn't possibly be unaware of the huge commotion surrounding Uzi's retirement.

Pure packaging.

This statement not only disgusted Xiaoming, but also disgusted Gala to the point of near death.

At this moment, Gala, standing backstage, had a deep frown on her face and a worried expression.

I don't know if it's something I was born with.

I really like what the girls on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) say about Gala's appearance:
She looks like she's had a very difficult life.

[These girls are really something! Their previous comment about TheShy (that it would take at least 30 yuan to go from his chin to his forehead) almost made me laugh so hard I almost choked.]

Standing at the other end of the backstage area, Flandre subtly moved closer to his teammates.

The rice vinegar from the ditch is truly disgusting.

Saint Gun Bro doesn't want to fight RNG in the octagon.

On the screen, the player now appears as IG's mid-laner, Rookie.

After all, we can't let RNG speak first.

When it comes to trash talk, whoever starts it loses.

Rookie also made classic "good guy" remarks.

Actually, Xu Xinghe had known him for a year and already knew him quite well.

Just one question: Where are the good people?

Rookie is secretly incredibly sassy and far more aggressive than others.

However, it is indeed only a problem related to the game.

He keeps the game and reality very separate.

Most South Korean athletes are like this.

Doinb constantly promotes the idea that he loves LPL and has forgotten Korean, but in reality, he only speaks Korean in his YouTube videos.

TheShy may appear shy and reserved, but he's actually a well-known trash-talker in the Korean server, and he doesn't back down when he gets angry.

Where is the shyness?
Xiao Hu's subsequent remarks were much more aggressive.

"If I face Rookie again, I feel like I can win if I play normally."

"Galaxy might not leave IG because he's reluctant, but I don't think it's the same for Rookie."

"If someone encounters me in springtime, then it can only be said that he is not very lucky."

Xiao Hu's signature hoarse voice always carries a unique kind of dark humor.

This wasn't particularly subtle; in fact, it was quite violent.

Does the translation mean you can win by playing normally?
The translator might say Xu Xinghe didn't want to leave because he was reluctant, but Rookie's situation is different.
It means that nobody wants Rookie.

Finally, he even bragged about his own "Spring Tiger Emperor" meme.

Judging from their trash-talking skills alone, they've definitely fallen behind mid lane. They're going crazy, killing like mad!

Little Tiger gave a smug, crooked smile.

As for trash talk!

[Too drastic a crackdown on account cancellation!]

[Everyone says Tiger is awesome!]

[Can broiler chickens really tolerate this??]

[Closing the account is awesome!]

The viewers in the live chat were also shocked by his witty remarks.

The crowd erupted in cheers.

RNG fans are really happy.

The strong are those who can humiliate the weak!
For the past two years, RNG and IG have been old rivals, with many fans disliking each other.

Seeing that they have a chance to get revenge this year, how could they not be happy?
The more violent Xiaohu's remarks are, the more they like them!
After Xiao Hu, it was naturally Xu Xinghe's turn.

Although he spoke first according to the order, his speech was anything but mild.

"To me, RNG is a very strong opponent; they performed better than us in the Demacia Cup."

"But what I want to say is that failure will never be an obstacle for us, but will become a stronger driving force for us."

"If I can drag that BO5 to the fifth game, then I can also beat RNG 2-0."

"Right today."

Xu Xinghe stated very boldly that he would beat RNG 2-0 today.

This statement reignited the previously subdued barrage of comments.

"You're really not afraid of attracting negative attention. I don't know what you're going to do after today's loss. RNG fans are like dog poop, once you get stuck with them, it's never a good ending."

Saint Gun, who had come closer, twitched the corners of his mouth, trying to relax and smile.

But he couldn't laugh at all.

Xu Xinghe spoke with great confidence.

But Flandre didn't have that confidence at all.

We're all professional players, can't you tell whether we can win or not?
It's so incredibly difficult!
How could someone make such bold statements before the match under these circumstances?

If we lose the game, the consequences will be unimaginable.

He couldn't understand what Xu Xinghe was thinking.

Faced with his advice, Xu Xinghe killed the discussion with just one sentence.

"After losing, even breathing is wrong."

This is a quote that coach Kkoma once said to Faker in a documentary.

It can also be described as a profound truth.

The audience doesn't care about this or that; if you lose the game, you'll get criticized.

Even Faker gets criticized, let alone Xu Xinghe now.
No matter what he says, this is the result after losing.

Since that's the case, it's simply a matter of degree.

Xu Xinghe didn't care at all.

If he truly cared about public opinion, he would have been scared when Ning's fans started criticizing him.

That's what esports is all about.

If you're a coward, don't play; if you play, don't be a coward.

"..."

Saint Gunner was speechless.

Because he also knew that what Xu Xinghe said was true.

Is Xinghe really that confident?

[Ghost, really 2-0? Don't let it get 2-0!]

[Xinghe, wake up! Didn't they just take the Demacia Cup by mistake?!]

Thanks to Xu Xinghe's past performances, he continues to excel in crucial moments.

At this point, there weren't many people criticizing him in the live chat.

That's the benefit of good grades.

If Faker said, "I want to win a championship for my teammates," most people's first reaction would be, "As expected of Faker."

If someone as incompetent as Care said such nonsense, the general reaction would probably be to "seek shelter from the wind and sand."

However, this trust needs to be maintained with tangible results.

Why was Bin's S15 performance ridiculed by everyone?
It's because he made too many grand pronouncements, but actually achieved very few successes, which caused him to lose credibility in the eyes of the audience and fans.

This even spawned a famous meme: "Why would Bin lie to us?"

You make a boast once, and everyone believes you.

But every time you brag, you end up getting beaten up like a nobody.

Who would believe you?
Wei's subsequent speech brought the atmosphere to an even higher climax:

"Galaxy was undoubtedly the biggest contributor to IG's victory. I was also very nervous playing against an FMVP-level player."

"But the thought that he's still on Instagram makes me less nervous."

"I hope he can do his best to turn the tide, otherwise I'm afraid I'll get sleepy."

The current RNG jungler, Xiao Wei, is actually a confident jungler with a sharp edge.

Although he knew Xu Xinghe was very powerful, and confirmed it after their last fight, he was indeed very strong.

But he felt that he wouldn't be too bad off.

At least the gap in jungle stats can't be too severe.

As long as he doesn't give him many chances, Xu Xinghe can't do anything about it.

Without lane control, even the strongest jungler is like dancing in shackles.

In this situation, how could I not beat him?

It makes no sense!
So at this point, he went all out with his trash talk.

Xu Xinghe stood quietly backstage, his expression unchanged.

They didn't change at all because of the ridicule.

Trash talk is just for fun; does anyone really take it to heart?
Aside from Mingkai's "I will prove on this stage who is the world's number one jungler," Xu Xinghe hardly remembers any trash talk.

However, Mingkai wasn't exactly lying.

He did prove it, but he proved it for Peanut.

But you can just say there's no proof!
After Xiao Wei, it's naturally time for Flandre.

Saint Gun Bro immediately delivered a Lightning Whirlwind Elbow strike to Xu Xinghe.
"Listen, listen carefully!"

In the video, Flandre smiles broadly.
"In today's match, I feel his chances of winning are about 50%, while mine are 95%."

"Bin? Who?"

"I think he's a pretty good, talented newcomer, but unfortunately I was one a few years ago."

Xu Xinghe smiled.

He clapped his hands. "Where did you steal it from?"

Saint Gun's trash-talking skills are just so-so. Xu Xinghe saw him getting flamed like shit by his teammates in Rank last night.

This joke is copied.

"It was stolen from a Korean."

Saint Gun proudly puffed out his chest.

"Are you quite proud?"

Holy Gun Bro chuckled:
"Koreans steal our stuff all the time, but they're the only ones allowed to play Silas?"

"I call this the way of man, do you understand?"

I think you also want to try the Korean brand Silas W.

Many viewers knew the origin of these trash-talking remarks, but their reactions were generally positive.

Plagiarism? Where was it plagiarized?

This has been the prevailing view for many years.

Seriously, don't talk nonsense.

This is a damn tribute!
I really like one of Silas's lines:
What's rightfully mine is mine!

And lastly, of course, is Bin, the current top laner for RNG.

Although it is still a growth-stage Digimon, young Bin still speaks extremely violently.

He chuckled softly in the video:
"Flandre said she doesn't recognize me? Then she should recognize me after today's fight. I think I'll beat her so badly she'll never forget it."

"There's not much to analyze about IG; the current IG is just average."

"We won the Demacia Cup."

He concluded with this sentence:

"The outcome today will remain unchanged."
