I'm a platinum-level author, so what if I play professionally?

In a secluded corner, on Qidian.com, a novel titled "Rebirth: I Am the Six-Crown King" secretly began serialization after its opening was revised more than a dozen times.

[Speaking of Zhu Kai, who impersonated a coach, swaggered around the players' bench, ultimately fielding a lineup that was 5,000 gold behind at the start.]

[During a scrim, PapaC's Zz1tai also encountered a major setback. He discovered that his jungler seemed to have gotten lost while gathering herbs in the jungle. The planned level 3 gank mid lane strategy, devised in the scrim, hadn't seen a single player from the jungle by the 20-minute mark. The distance between the jungle and mid lane was so vast, it felt like taking a slow train from Vietnam to Shanghai.]

[And the brilliant strategist, the cunning Jiangzuo Wulang, who visited Incheon three times to bring back O-Emperor, also failed to improve the team's situation. Instead, he dragged the team into a quagmire. In his debut against GT, Ohq, with his precise positioning, consistently managed to cleverly avoid every AOE skill from GT in team fights, resulting in numerous instant deaths.]

Ultimately, Snake Esports, who had come a step closer to the World Championship, suffered a crushing defeat in their very first match of 17, losing 0-2 to GT Esports.

-----------------

January 26th. The Snakes faced their second match. Perhaps to compensate for the unfair treatment they received last year, this year's Snakes faced almost no strong opponents in the first half of the Spring Split.

Snake Esports' opponent today is OMG. This team, once known as a dark force, has lost its competitive edge in the LPL after the collapse of its 15 super team, now considered a mid-tier team.

However, facing OMG, Snake Esports was completely outmatched and suffered their second defeat in a clean sweep.

-----------------

February 3rd. Snake Esports suffered another defeat against VG, marking their third consecutive loss in overall games and their sixth consecutive loss in individual games! A single victory remains elusive!

February 10th. Snake Esports lost to IM Esports again. This former dark horse seems to have completely fallen from grace.

Snake Esports Club.

Zuo Wu stared at Zhu Kai with a dark expression.

"What exactly happened? We've played eight games and haven't won a single game. Can you tell me what the problem is?"

Faced with Zuo Wu's questioning, Zhu Kaichi stammered, then suddenly pointed behind Zuo Wu and shouted:

"Hey! The takeout's here! Let's eat first!"

"Eat your mother!"

Zuo Wu's face looked extremely pale.

Before the season started, he confidently assured his boss that they had bought Ohq, which filled the team's gaps, and that they would definitely make it to the World Championship this year.

Now, things have gotten even worse. They've suffered eight consecutive losses since the start of the season, failing to even manage a single draw, and are now at the bottom of the standings!

What Zuo Wu found even more incomprehensible was that the Snake team kept losing in official matches, but kept winning in training matches.

This is absolutely outrageous! It's outrageous beyond belief!

Now, everyone in the esports community calls Snake Esports the "Gods of Practice Matches." Countless teams come to them every day to arrange practice matches, and then they turn around and beat them up in the official matches.

Faced with Zuo Wu's questioning, Zhu Kai couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

He can't exactly say that he keeps losing because he doesn't have a PTT account, can he?

Seeing that Zhu Kai remained silent, Zuo Wu spoke up:

"Where's Wang Ke? What's he up to? Call him over here."

As soon as Zuo Wu finished speaking, the office door was pushed open, and Wang Ke was seen standing in the doorway with a smile.

"I think I just heard someone call my name."

Without much thought, Zuo Wu asked:

What's been going on with the team's recent matches?

Upon hearing Zuo Wu's question, Wang Ke simply found a seat and sat down.

"The team has indeed been losing lately, but I've found a solution."

As soon as he finished speaking, the large screen in the office, which was usually used for tactical analysis, suddenly lit up.

Zhu Kai stared wide-eyed at the PTT screen, where several large characters were written.

[Summary of the team's recent situation and suggestions for improvement.]

Under Zhu Kai's awestruck gaze, Wang Ke began his explanation, which lasted for more than an hour.

This PTT post is a whopping 65 pages long, containing detailed replays of Snake Esports' first match against GT in the Spring Split and their recent match against IM, as well as comparisons of Snake Esports' performance in scrims.

"To resolve the Snake Esports team's current predicament, only three things need to be done."

After more than an hour of explanation, Zuo Wu and Zhu Kai were already a bit confused. Seeing that Wang Ke had finally gotten to the point, Zuo Wu's eyes lit up and he said:

"Tell me about it."

"First, we need to change the ADC. Ohq, that Korean guy, clearly doesn't have his heart in our club. Whether it's scrims or official matches, he's always half-hearted. He can't win in lane, and he keeps dying in team fights. What's even more outrageous is that some people are still planning strategies around the bot lane. It's a miracle we can win the game."

Upon hearing Wang Ke's words, Zhu Kai immediately retorted.

"Ohq just needs time to gel."

Zuo Wu clearly didn't want to replace Ohq.

Putting aside the fact that he spent so much money to buy Ohq, the key point is that the story of his three visits to Incheon to buy Ohq is circulating all over the internet. If he were to replace Ohq right away, wouldn't that be a slap in the face to him as the best manager in the LPL?

Furthermore, due to the injury of the team's original starting AD carry, Crystal, there is currently no suitable ADC candidate on the team.

Wang Ke didn't say much about it.

In fact, he knew that the Snake team couldn't just replace Ohq, whom they had bought for a huge sum of money, like that.

But isn't that how negotiations work?

First, present a condition that the other party cannot accept, then things will be much easier to discuss afterwards.

"Since we don't want to replace Ohq, that's fine. But if we don't replace Ohq, we definitely need to change the mid laner. My suggestion is to replace Zz1tai with Song Wen."

How is Song Wen doing lately?

Zuo Wu looked at Zhu Kai.

Faced with Zuo Wu's question, Zhu Kai couldn't lie through his teeth, so he could only nod.

"You're in pretty good shape."

"Okay, then let Song Wen try out in the next game."

Zuo Wu didn't hesitate much before making this decision, after all, Snake Team's situation couldn't get any worse.

If we don't seek change now, are we going to wait until we're completely stuck in the relegation zone and can't get out before making any changes?

"The third thing," Wang Ke said calmly, "is to let me take charge of the drafting and banning!"

Upon hearing Wang Ke's words, Zuo Wu hesitated for a moment this time.

Although he knew that Zhu Kai wasn't very capable, in the eyes of outsiders, whoever was in charge of the draft phase was equivalent to the coach of the team.

Zhu Kai has worked hard these past two years, even if he hasn't achieved anything remarkable, and the two of them have gotten along quite well. Even if they were to change coaches, this kind of approach seems far too hasty.
