League: I really didn't tank!

Chapter 82 Public Opinion Pressure

Because the match against EDG is the day after tomorrow, and the new mid laner is not yet fully integrated with the team and is not familiar enough with the 6.3 new version, QG did not take a break this time, but immediately threw themselves into intensive training matches.

Time flies, and it's already February 21st.

Today is Sunday, and at 5 PM, prime time, QG will officially face their seventh opponent, EDG.

The QG team boarded the bus, and Chen Dongqing put on his headphones and then browsed Tieba for a while.

The forum was as lively as ever, with everyone discussing the upcoming matches.

Both teams are currently undefeated with a 6-0 record, which means that one of them will definitely break their undefeated streak today.

Normally, the two sides' fans should be competing with each other, but today's forum is a bit strange.

QG fans were barely able to breathe under the onslaught of EDG fans!

Because EDG suddenly gained a group of casual fans out of nowhere.

The previous Weibo suicide incident had such a huge impact that many people are now standing against QG and cheering for EDG!

[EDG, go go go! Justice will prevail!]

It all depends on how hard the factory manager goes; he's quite adept at internal power struggles.

[WE fans support Justice Veil QG!]

[60E should just keep climbing; this group will always be at the bottom in the resistance forum.]

Chen Dongqing looked at the contents, thought about it, and decided not to show them to his teammates.

He was afraid of affecting his teammates' morale.

But no matter what, this match did attract a lot of viewers.

Chen Dongqing thought for a moment, then simply posted a message: "Am I the only one who thinks QG has a high chance of winning today?"

Shortly after the post was published, comments flooded in, mostly question marks and some negative remarks.

Successfully provoked a conflict!

Chen Dongqing grinned. By then, the bus had arrived at the venue entrance. He put away his phone, picked up his backpack, and walked towards the venue.

As they walked, Chen Dongqing asked, "Who's EDG's top laner today?"

Since the Spring Split, EDG's two top laners have been constantly switching between each other, so he really didn't know that today.

"I think it's Mouse?" Zheng Yi said from the side. "I saw EDG's Weibo post; they announced it at noon today."

"Okay then." Chen Dongqing nodded with a smile.

Ah Guang had been relegated to the bench after being beaten by him in a training match, and he felt quite guilty about it.

But seeing that Ah Guang had regained his starting position, he was still quite happy.

At this point, you can see that a lot of fans have gathered around the bus, some holding up light boards with Uzi or Ilex on them and waving loudly to the players.

Although QG's fans were silenced on the forums today, that doesn't mean they don't exist.

Chen Dongqing smiled and waved in response, then walked into the venue.

They arrived at the venue two hours early, just as the match between the other two teams was starting on stage.

The two teams in the 3 o'clock slot are RNG and EPA, and there's not much to say about their rivalry.

The newly minted Xiaohu is at the first peak of his career, and the top jungle duo of Looper and Swift is playing with smurf-level dominance. Although the team's trajectory was changed by Chen Dongqing's arrival, their strength remains.

The final result was not in any suspense, with RNG winning easily.

After resting for a while, the staff came over and reminded us to set up the peripherals and log in to our game account before going on stage.

On the way back to the lounge after installing the peripherals, you could see a hint of fear on the face of the new mid laner, Cherish.

The main reason is that his opponent today put a lot of pressure on him.

Not only are they facing the top team in the LPL, but they are also facing Pawn, the world champion mid laner.

He also understood that if he were sitting in Doinb's position and the game was lost, he would be riddled with bullets by Doinb's fans and casual fans.

With such immense pressure, anyone would be intimidated.

Manager Linko noticed this detail and immediately went over to say, "It's okay, relax, the team will take care of you."

The team certainly couldn't let the public opinion get worse; they had prepared for both scenarios and were just waiting for today's match results.

If they win the game, it will be easy to reverse public opinion.

If they lose the match, the methods might have to be a bit more ruthless; Linko doesn't mind revealing the root cause of the Doinb incident.

There were two reasons why it wasn't made public before. First, Coach Park said he wanted to protect the athletes.

Secondly, there's no need for it. It's just a normal substitute rotation. Making a fuss about it in front of the public would actually lower its value.

In short, Doinb's attempt to use public opinion to engage in power struggles is seen as very naive by the club. If the club wanted to, they could easily crush him.

How can an individual fight against capital?

Cherish nodded blankly, his anxiety not eased much; Linko clearly didn't have Zhu Kai's motivational skills.

Seeing this, Chen Dongqing said, "It's okay, just watch me play this round, I'll take the center position."

He understood that their mid-jungle duo of Pawn and Clearlove would inevitably run into problems in the long run.

Xiangguo himself seems a bit green in front of the factory manager. You know, the current factory manager has never met Xiaohuasheng, nor has he ever played the peak 4396.

Needless to say, the difference between the two sides in the middle lane is like a Chihuahua meeting a lion on the plains.

Uzi might not have an advantage against Deft; the outcome of their laning matchup will depend on today's game results.

In that case, they can only pin their hopes on the top lane.

Chen Dongqing felt a considerable pressure weighing on his shoulders.

The feeling of carrying the team forward is truly wonderful!

For today's high-profile match, the commentators are obviously Wawa and Miller; these two are currently the highest-caliber commentators in the LPL.

The director had already shown the two teams' spring split statistics, and Wawa took the opportunity to start talking at length:

"Both teams currently have a perfect record of six wins, but the difference is that QG's win rate in individual games is a terrifying 100% without losing a single game, while EDG lost a game to RNG."

"These two teams' records are truly neck and neck!" Miller said. "But we can also see that in terms of individual KDA, only Clearlove from EDG has a higher KDA than mlxg; the other four have slightly lower KDAs than QG, but they are all undoubtedly very high!"

At this point, both teams' players had already entered the arena. In this game, EDG had the first choice of side, and they unsurprisingly chose the blue side.

After Chen Dongqing joined the team, he saw Uzi and the factory manager chatting enthusiastically.

Seeing this, Chen Dongqing didn't hold back and started typing: "Mouse, go easy on me today."

Across from him, Ah Guang watched as this despicable man named Ilex greeted him, and some unpleasant memories surfaced in his mind.

That's the guy! He went from being a starter to a rotation player!

Ah Guang didn't give this despicable man a friendly look and simply typed a question mark.

Chen Dongqing, however, was somewhat puzzled by this.

At this point, the referee at the back had confirmed that both players were ready and officially gave the order to start the match.

Ah-Guang put his unhappy thoughts behind him, revealing a warm and healing smile, and happily clicked to start the game.

The images in the live stream room and on the large screen at the venue suddenly switched, and the BP panel appeared in front of everyone!
