We promised to win the championship together, so why did you all retire?

Chapter 33: Those who just coast along aren't invincible in crucial situations, they're no

The Demacia Cup will once again be held in Shanghai.

It's even less than half an hour's drive from RG's club.

On the bus that Bai Liang used to transport athletes, kkoma began his final preparations before the competition.

"Our opponent in the first match today wasn't particularly strong."

"It's probably because we received preferential treatment from the authorities."

He shrugged and continued:

"HYA, a team of live streamers."

Effort immediately frowned.

As a native LCK player, he naturally looked down on streamers.

In South Korea, only those who can't even make it to the youth training system become streamers.

In other words, the vegetable is oozing pus.

"Hey guys, let's fight the streamer!"

He was not only unhappy, but also a little annoyed.

Although Effort doesn't consider himself a big-name player, but...

Making me play against a streamer's team is such an insult!

Uzi offered an explanation: "There are some streamers in the LPL who are quite good at the game, and some of them can even reach Challenger rank in the Korean server."

"I took a look at their lineup, and their top and jungle players are doing pretty well in ranked games."

I don't quite understand Effort.

If you're so talented, why did you become a streamer?

—Of course, it's because they earn more.

Professional players at the bottom level don't earn as much as top streamers.

Of course, becoming a top streamer isn't that easy.

Technical skills are secondary; what matters is being able to do live streaming and having your own unique style.

For example, Organ Fiora and Digital Fiora.

JJKING's ranking is very unstable; he's basically always getting crushed by Fourteen Swordswoman, and every time he encounters her, she's just a toy.

But this doesn't affect JJKING's larger audience.

Being a professional streamer and being a live streamer are completely different paths.

A professional relies solely on technical skills to make a living, while a streamer relies on having witty and humorous content.

Xun took the list from kkoma and read out the names of the opposing players without comment.

"Top laner Xiaochaomeng, jungler Sally, mid laner Awei, bot laner Yanxuan..."

He raised an eyebrow. "Quite a few acquaintances."

Although he didn't remember Nakano, Ueno was indeed very famous.

Especially that little Chao Meng on the road.

There are so many filial sons.

Xun has queued up a few times before.

Whenever Xiao Chaomeng gets caught and killed while pushing the lane, people in his live stream always start criticizing him.

Xun usually watches a lot of live streams.

Of course, Xun usually doesn't care about this.

Why would a professional player like him argue with a streamer's fans?

Value dropped.

But now that you're in my hands...

Well, I'm sorry then.

When fans make mistakes, the celebrities have to pay the price.

"It's good enough to have a match to play."

Uzbekistan chuckled:

"If the first game is against the streamer team, surely the second game won't be against the same team again, right?"

"Let's torture them first!"

After more than half a month of rehabilitation, Uzi has gradually recovered to his professional form.

Judging from Bai Liang's current stats, you can see how hard he's been working lately.

Name: Jian Zihao

[Professional ID: Uzi]

Age: 24

Current position leans towards: ADC

Current Season: S8

[Hand speed: 79/100]

Experience: 95/95

Laning phase score: 80/99

Team fight score: 90/92

Focus level: 72/95

【creativity:???】

All attributes have been improved, with the most significant improvement being in his laning phase.

The last time Bai Liang checked his attributes, his stats were only 70.

However, as he readjusted to the professional rhythm during this period, and with Bai Liang using the [Training Card] from the Recognition Value Mission, it was ensured that Uzi's training would not be interrupted due to his old injury.

Uzi has regained a lot of form, and his laning rating has jumped to 80.

A 10-point improvement may not seem like much, but it actually represents the gap between the lower-tier LPL teams and the top-tier LPL teams.

Although he's still not quite world-class, he can easily handle playing against average Challenger AD carries.

Even if Uzi isn't the top AD carry he was before the S8 World Championship, who was unstoppable.

But in any case, his fighting ability has returned to what it was during his pink-eared days.

This state is sufficient.

The surface of the training card appears to be ordinary.

It has remarkable effects on retired and elderly athletes.

Maintain a relatively good condition during training.

Sounds pretty ordinary?

But in fact.

This directly relieved them of the troubles caused by old injuries during training.

Often, the reason why professional players are unable to make a comeback is not only due to contract issues, but also because of the occupational diseases they have developed in the past.

Besides Uzi, another player who has improved significantly is Bai Liang.

His laning phase score jumped from over 60 to over 70.

Making up for a three-year gap compared to other competitors is undoubtedly painful.

But it was worth it.

During this time, Bai Liang became familiar with the heroes, whether they were modified or newly added, and was no longer as clueless as when he first transmigrated.

Although he still doesn't have many heroes he can be proud of.

But that was against a legitimate LPL team.

How can the livestreaming team be compared to them?

Therefore, Bai Liang didn't feel much pressure.

But... he was still a little excited.

This was, after all, his first time playing professionally and his first official appearance on the field.

At this moment, while flipping through the information he had on the opposing mid laner, he had already begun to plan how to lane against him.

But at that very moment...

The system has been inactive for a long time since the recognition value mall task was launched.

Suddenly, a new task popped up.

After a period of training, you have finally joined a club with S+ level players and become their starting mid laner.

[The system has identified the player's ID as Uzi.]

[The fact that you were able to join RNG before the start of the S8 Spring Split is quite impressive; even the system can't help but be amazed by your keen eye. Perhaps switching Xiaohu from mid lane to top lane earlier would have been a good choice?]

With the new season just around the corner, you're also facing your first professional game, a game where victory is not an option.

To become a successful slacker, you not only need to know how to suck up to powerful people, but also how to stand up for yourself at certain times.

After all, if you're completely useless in every game, how can you possibly survive?

So, let's carry this not-so-important game to the max!

Fighting to make things easier at Worlds and in crucial matches!

[Mission Requirements: Complete the first match without dying once and achieve a godlike status]

[Task Reward: Peak Performance Card]

Bai Liang couldn't help but rub his forehead.

When I first bound him, I set him to S8, and he didn't complain about the system settings.

But it's been so many days already...

The system itself regularly marks the season as "[S11]" on the players' status bars, but the tasks are still being sent out according to the S8 schedule...

Are you just burying your head in the sand?

However, the system logic is quite self-consistent.

A player who doesn't carry in crucial games is just not a player who doesn't carry in any other game.

Otherwise, how could they survive?

In many people's eyes, Xiao Hu has been quite successful, hasn't he?

He hasn't played many games yet.

and--

Even if the system allowed Bai Liang to get away with it, Bai Liang would not be able to.

There's no penalty for failing a mission.

If it's too bad, we can just not do it.

He chose this profession for himself, and also to satisfy himself.

It's not like I'm calling the system.
