When Gu Yueshuang and Lin Yanqiu were carrying bags of snacks back to the base, Xu Qing's nose was the first to notice: "Where have you two been? Wow, you bought so many snacks, are they for us?"
Gu Yueshuang put a big bag on the table: "This is for you."
Lin Yanqiu looked at the three large bags left in their hands and asked, "Anything else?"
Gu Yueshuang: "No more."
Xu Qing: “???”
Are you sure you didn't say the opposite?
Zhou Yao couldn't bear to see Xu Qing drooling over his food, so he said, "Look how much fatter you've become in this period of time. This big bag is enough for our whole team to eat for a week."
Xu Qing: "But they have three bags——"
Gu Yueshuang was puzzled: "Why do you still have this weird competitive urge in this regard? I rank 60 games a week, but you don't have any?"
Xu Qing: "...Excuse me."
Yang Chi was curious: "Aren't there still competitions and training matches? How did you manage to play 60 games a week?"
"I fight fast and sleep little," Gu Yueshuang explained briefly, also wondering, "Why are you in our training room?"
Yang Chi smiled and pointed to the large watermelons at the back: "Our team bought some watermelons, I'm here to give them to you."
"Thank you. Would you like to take some snacks back?" Lin Yanqiu was very polite.
Yang Chi smiled broadly: "Okay, okay."
Gu Yueshuang pointed at the bag Xu Qing was rummaging through: "Pick from that one."
Xu Qing: “???”
Are you still a human being!
Gu Yueshuang: "Just take what you want to eat and eat it yourself. If we send snacks to GGB, don't we have to send them to FJ and SC teams as well? I refuse."
Lin Yanqiu was quite generous: "Take whatever you want, it's okay, there are too many snacks to finish."
Gu Yueshuang was also very casual: "Those who can come into our lounge can take it, and those who are SC will crawl for me."
Yang Chi was amused and gave a thumbs up: "I like your straightforward personality."
He didn't take much, just picked two chocolate cookies and prepared to leave.
Lin Yanqiu: "We also ordered milk, which will be delivered to you later."
"Okay, thank you, thank you. I'll tell them when I get back."
Yang Chi thought there were only a few bottles, but POG sent them two boxes.
Xu Qing was also surprised: "Why did you buy so much milk?"
Gu Yueshuang curled her lips and said, "It's a gift from a promotion because I bought too much."
She was tired of drinking milk, and the thought of the base still having to constantly replenish it gave her a headache.
So now she always brings a bottle of milk to Lin Yanqiu, waiting for Lin Yanqiu to get tired of drinking it and stop drinking it for a while. Unfortunately, she never waited until Lin Yanqiu got tired of drinking it.
Gu Yueshuang patted Fang Butao and said, "Remember to tell the people at SC that they're worried the milk we're sending them might be poisonous, so we won't be sending it to them anymore."
Fang Butao: "...childish."
How old are you and still holding a grudge?
Gu Yueshuang found an empty space in the training room to put the snacks. Although she joked that Xu Qing and the others would not be allowed to eat them, she actually bought so many just to share with everyone.
She was also worried that other teams would come to grab snacks and her own children would not have any, so she bought a lot.
Lin Yanqiu helped Gu Yueshuang turn on the computer and asked, "Do you want to play in a duo?"
Gu Yueshuang was still trying to rank up on her trumpet: "Go find Xu Qing. We've been queuing for too long, so I'll go solo."
Lin Yanqiu ignored Xu Qing's hesitant look and said, "I got a new account."
Gu Yueshuang perfunctorily replied, "Won't you be exposed right away if you play duo with me? Be good and stop making trouble. Go play with Xu Qing."
Fang Butao was helping to organize the snack corner, wondering, "The Intercontinental Championship is only a week away, why are you buying so many snacks?"
"I'm in a good mood." While waiting in line, Gu Yueshuang clicked on the LCK game video and began to study it. She added, "You guys can eat as much as you want. Aren't there a lot of interviews during this period? I can use the money to bribe the staff so that they won't give me too much trouble..."
Xu Qing: "Didn't they say that only this bag belongs to us?"
Gu Yueshuang argued confidently: "Then you must have gone to look for snacks. Are you still going to train?"
Xu Qing immediately went to complain to his AD carry: "Xiao Lin! Someone is bullying your support!"
Lin Yanqiu raised the back of his hand to hide the smile on his lips, and then said: "These are all her snacks. If you want to eat them, you can ask her for them. It's useless to ask me. I can't make the decision."
Gu Yueshuang was so scared that she stuttered: "No, no, no—it wasn't me, the captain swiped the card."
Xu Qing was completely bewildered: "Who bought it?"
They both spoke almost simultaneously: "She bought it." / "He bought it."
Xu Qing: “…”
Zhou Yao glanced at them and said, "There's something wrong with you two."
Gu Yueshuang was unable to make excuses: "I can only say that the captain is a good person."
Lu Minghao said naively: "Captain, are you also a fan of Brother Shuang? The way he gave snacks to me is just like the parents of Brother Shuang."
Gu Yueshuang: "?? Where do you get the term 'parents fans'? I'm just a fan, why are you forcing myself to be a senior?"
Yang Lin, turning into Sherlock Holmes, began to deduce, "I've noticed. Everyone seems to really like duo-queuing with Shuang. Previously, Lu Cheng spent tons of money on gifts to add Shuang as his friend. I heard Team FJ even treated him to dinner. Now, Team Lin is actually trying to bribe Shuang with snacks for a duo spot."
Lu Minghao: "Who wouldn't want to duo queue with Shuang? She's the kind of person who can steadily thrive even if I'm down to 0-10 and even have a chance to lead the team to victory!"
Gu Yueshuang recalled the shameful past where he had tricked her into losing a lot of points: "...Shut up! You'll be on my double queue blacklist for half a month before I tell you anything."
The topic went off track almost immediately, and no one investigated who bought the snacks or why they bought them.
Gu Yang reminded him, "We have a training match with GGB at 7 o'clock. Remember not to rank when the time is almost up."
"good--"
Although participating in the Intercontinental Championship allows you to meet many teams from other regions, everyone is representing their region after all, so no one is very willing to play training matches with teams from other regions.
The four LPL teams can only play training games with each other.
POG is really a group of people who hold grudges. Every time they play against SC team, they are extremely fierce.
They camped in a level 1 team fight, chased after the enemy over two towers, and killed the enemy instead of the dragon during the fight near the dragon pit, etc. The SC team coach wanted to ask POG to be gentler several times, but he felt that this was too embarrassing, so he just swallowed his anger.
At the beginning, the SC team looked down on POG, the fourth seed. Who would have thought that the fourth seed this year would be so strong?
SC seemed to be convinced and finally lowered themselves to attend a meeting with the other three teams and sat down to listen carefully.
But they seemed to be holding back a lot of anger and didn't like to talk much.
POG hasn't arrived yet for today's regular meeting.
GGB and FJ teams were discussing their recent training matches. Lu Cheng smiled wryly, "How are you guys? We're always getting beaten up by POG."
Xia Yan sighed: "To be honest, we are the same."
The SC team pricked up their ears and listened quietly. When they found out that they were not the only ones being beaten up, their mood brightened a lot.
Several people from POG arrived late, and Xu Qing shouted loudly, "Sorry for being late. Has your takeout arrived yet?"
"We're here!" Yang Chi shouted back, "How dare you ask if there's anything to eat when you're late?"
Lu Cheng pointed to a table full of unopened, fragrant takeout and said, "We're waiting for you to open them."
Xu Qing rubbed her hands together, looking at the takeaway with anticipation, and complained, "Shuang Ge played a rank game based on the time. She thought it would be finished in half an hour, but it ended up taking five minutes longer, so she was late."
Chi Nan was curious: "Then you come over first, what are the others doing?"
Zhou Yao said leisurely, "Everyone's gathered behind him, watching him fight in a team. They'll start taunting him if he shows any signs of making a mistake. Such a rare opportunity can't be missed."
Everyone: “…”
You POGs are toxic!
Generally speaking, when playing games, it will be particularly stressful if there are people standing behind you; if there are many people standing behind you, your hands may shake and you may make mistakes.
Yang Chi blinked, a little curious about whether Gu Yueshuang would make a fool of herself: "And then?"
Xu Qing gritted his teeth and said, "Then she showed off a pentakill right there and then. It pissed me off."
Everyone: “…”
What a good attitude.
Chi Nan rubbed the goose bumps on his hands: "It's scary just thinking about it. I was preparing to play in a team the other day, but the captain stood next to me and watched. I was so scared that my hand trembled and magnified in reverse."
Lu Cheng tried to smooth things over between the two teams, saying, "Today's takeout was all ordered by the SC team."
——During the training camp, they basically took turns ordering takeout. There were many people and they ate a lot, so they didn’t care who ordered more and who ordered less.
However, the SC team rarely participates in sharing activities among themselves, and this is the first time they have participated.
Gu Yueshuang ate the takeaway and asked, "Is it poisoned?"
Gu Yang patted her head and said, "How can you talk like that? That's so rude."
Gu Yueshuang said confidently: "Have you forgotten my character of a funhouse mirror? I am a mirror, and if others treat me badly, I will return it tenfold."
She still holds a grudge.
If she easily forgives the SC team, then doesn't that mean anyone can mess with her?
Xu Qing looked up at the sky: "Doesn't that mean you'll have to work for the captain for the rest of your life? He practically treats you like his own son."
Lu Minghao mustered up the courage to shout, "Brother Shuang, I'm also your daddy fan!"
Gu Yueshuang rolled up her sleeves and prepared to beat someone up: "I'll clean up the mess first!"
The atmosphere in the conference room became extremely happy, and everyone was laughing and watching the show while unpacking their takeout.
After a while, the SC captain stood up and solemnly apologized to POG: "I'm sorry, we were rude and looked down on you earlier. We said some unkind things. Thank you for not holding a grudge and not making a fuss about us. You even gave us milk. It was delicious. Thank you."
Gu Yueshuang knew what was going on as soon as she thought about it. It must be that Fang Butao secretly sent the milk in order to maintain the relationship in the team.
But it doesn’t matter, she had a great time in the training matches.
Gu Yueshuang: "No, I still care about it. I am a mean person, I care about it very much."
Fang Butao said with a smile: "It's okay, don't take it to heart. Our team members have bad tempers, so don't take it to heart."
One of them plays the bad guy and the other plays the good guy, and they play the whole trick and the other party can't say anything.
Yang Chi said, "Brother Shuang has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He's actually a very nice person, but he has a bad temper. I've offended him before. I should apologize sincerely and be thick-skinned. If all else fails, I can just give money to their captain. Giving money to Brother Shuang is useless."
He paused, lowering his voice so that everyone in the room could hear: "If you're not nice to their captain, Brother Shuang will be very mean to him. If you're nice to their captain, Brother Shuang will be nice to you too, really."
Lin Yanqiu: “…”
Gu Yueshuang hummed and ignored everyone.
You think you can just let it go with an apology? If I beat you up and then apologize a couple of days later, would you accept that?
Lin Yanqiu showed his captain's demeanor, smiled and said, "It's okay. We respect all talented players. After all, we are fighting for the honor of the LPL together. Let's encourage each other."
What this means is that as long as you show corresponding strength, we can maintain superficial peace.
Gu Yang clapped his hands for silence. "That's enough. The purpose of this meeting is to review the issues facing each team. Everyone must proceed with caution. The LCK is full of tough opponents. Furthermore, this period of training will definitely help improve everyone's overall strength. I hope everyone can focus and not dwell on irrelevant matters."
He controlled the projector and said, "First, let's play a LCK game video. You can watch it while eating, and then we can discuss it together after watching it."
He was the oldest person present and his POG performance was indeed good, so his words were very authoritative - after all, the biggest troublemaker in the audience was his own daughter, so he gave her face.
Gu Yueshuang found a box of barbecue and discovered that it was full of chili powder. She then pulled out a box of non-spicy food that Lin Yanqiu could eat from the takeout pile and placed it in front of him, whispering fiercely, "Don't try to eat spicy food when I'm not paying attention."
Lin Yanqiu smiled and said, "I know."
Gu Yueshuang nodded and began to watch the game video carefully while eating.
I felt in my heart that LCK is worthy of being LCK. Everyone's basic skills are very good, but the competition is a bit too boring.
Both sides knew what the other side wanted to do, so they tried their best to avoid fighting. Both sides developed peacefully to the extreme, and then ended the game with a team fight - except for this last team fight, it was very boring.
It's boring, but there are a lot of things to learn.
Gu Yueshuang looked at it for a while, then knocked on the table in front of Qin Ye and asked, "Have you written down their jungle ganking routes?"
Qin Ye nodded and said, "The team on the left particularly likes to gank the middle lane, so you will handle the pressure on your own when the time comes."
Gu Yueshuang: "? Are you letting it go again?"
Qin Ye explained, "It's not cost-effective for us to fight two against two. If you fight two by yourself, you'll make a lot of money if you win and you won't lose if you lose. As long as you don't die too often, it'll be fine. I can finish clearing the jungle and ganking the bottom lane sooner, so I can take the support out to do some work."
After listening for a while, Lin Yanqiu realized that something was wrong: "Am I going to be free-range too?"
The two POG Cs looked at each other and sighed in tacit understanding.
Whose C position wants to be thrown into a one-on-two situation online?!
Lu Minghao was chewing on a chicken drumstick. After listening to this conversation silently, his hand holding the drumstick paused and he asked tremblingly, "Can I enjoy the three-for-one treatment in the top lane? And I'm the third one?"
Chi Nan listened halfway through, then exclaimed, "Who's the third one?"
Lu Minghao yelled angrily: "Shut up! Eat! Even the competition can't shut your ears!"
Qin Ye: "No, the jungler and support should both roam out to clear the jungle and establish vision, which will be convenient for team fights in the later stages."
After watching a game, everyone had almost finished eating, and only a few people were still eating.
The people in POG eat the most happily, eating from the front to the back of others.
Gu Yueshuang asked the coach to replay the video: "Old Gu, replay the last team battle again, preferably in slow motion."
Gu Yang complained as he operated: "You're asking for a lot."
Lin Yanqiu thought she looked particularly appetizing when eating, so he asked, "Is it delicious?"
Gu Yueshuang: "It's okay. I like spicy food, but Grandpa Lin doesn't usually use chili peppers."
This is the pride of top chefs, who feel that spiciness will destroy the taste of the ingredients themselves.
After the last team fight was over, everyone cleaned up the table and the players began to discuss the mode, while the analysis team behind the scenes and the coach prepared the things they would need for the meeting.
Seeing no one was talking, Lin Yanqiu was the first to offer a summary: "Their playstyle is actually quite consistent, and their jungle rhythm barely changes. Studying a few games will allow you to guess their movements. But they're more experienced and know how to minimize losses and drag the game out until the double-C plays."
Lu Cheng shook his head and sighed, "Their teamfights are too detailed. I have no idea how to deal with them."
"Have you ever heard of a random punch that killed a master?" Gu Yueshuang, holding a bottle of yogurt, pointed at the big screen and said, "They will have all the team's resources allocated to either the mid laner or the AD carry. And while they're being taken care of, the jungler will definitely visit frequently. We junglers suggest we withstand the pressure..."
Gu Yueshuang paused, thinking that this was just their POG's special way of dealing with things.
She and Lin Yanqiu could withstand pressure and even counterattack in a one-on-two fight, but could other teams do the same? Especially when they could only exert 80% or even 60% of their usual strength, could they smoothly overcome the pressure?
Moreover, she and Lin Yanqiu can always develop quietly when others don't notice. This method is definitely not suitable for GGB's main jungler.
Gu Yueshuang was stuck for a while, and finally gave up: "My suggestion is to confront them head-on and fight them."
Lin Yanqiu seconded the suggestion: "I also suggest fighting. Don't compete with them in development."
Xia Yan also nodded: "I agree. They developed faster and more steadily than us. But it's easy to say it's easy to fight, but it can easily turn into a free gift."
Gu Yueshuang: "Then give it to me boldly. What if you show off?"
Everyone: “…”
Are you a funny guy sent by the monkey?
Gu Yueshuang cleared her throat and said seriously, "Comparing your development to them is slow suicide. They know how to develop too well. It's like when you were training with us, you were always thinking about fighting us. That's quick suicide."
Everyone: “???”
Why are you bragging about yourself all of a sudden?
Lin Yanqiu seemed to be inspired. After thinking for two seconds, he said, "You seem to be easily led into the rhythm of others. Especially GGB, always trying to defeat them in their own way."
Gu Yueshuang: "That's right, when we fight, you want to fight too; when they grow, you want to grow too. Why do you always use your weaknesses to touch other people's strengths?"
Yan Che was speechless for a long time: "Why do we seem to be said to be useless?"
Gu Yueshuang: "Not really. You may be average, with all your subjects scoring 90 points, but you always want to compare your 90 points with others who scored 95 or even 100 points. It would be strange if you could win."
After saying that, she held her bottle of yogurt and started drinking it.
He doesn't look mature or steady at all.
What she said was rough but true, and everyone fell into deep thought.
The feelings during the game and reviewing the game after the game are completely different. When reviewing the game after the game, my mind is clear and I know exactly what I should do at that time.
However, it is easy to fall into the trap of being confused during the game, or do something crazy.
Gu Yang bared his teeth. "Why did you only say half of what I wanted to summarize? Did you peek at my notebook?"
Gu Yueshuang was shocked: "You still have the notebook?"
Gu Yang: “…”
Gu Yueshuang said confidently, "Isn't that something anyone with a discerning eye can see? Why would you need to take a notebook to write it down?"
The various factions were confused by the situation: "..."
They all feel that they are being implied.
Lin Yanqiu said succinctly: "I'm still not very confident in my team's own style."
Lu Cheng smiled bitterly, looked at his own analysis team, and hesitated to speak.
They are indeed not confident, and the jungle core in this version is not the most correct.
The most correct thing to do is to make changes based on the version changes and the BP changes on the field, and be a jungler in one game and a tool in the next.
But the team wouldn't allow it.
We can only let him develop and then make him the last hope of the team.
POG's summary was indeed very good, but they really couldn't be confident in their own team style.
How can you remain constant in the face of change? This game is a game where every version has its own champion. Whenever the version changes, you have to adapt accordingly. This is why the champions always change.
The FJ team was also a little confused.
They are not very good at fighting.
The SC team pondered for a moment, and finally someone spoke up: "What if we can't win? If we can't win on the field, we can only avoid the fight. If we avoid the fight, the opponent will develop..."
This is a vicious cycle, which is what Gu Yueshuang just said as chronic suicide.
Gu Yueshuang suddenly felt that everything she had just said was in vain.
These people seemed to have problems with their comprehension and asked her again after taking out her answers.
Lin Yanqiu explained, "Someone in your team needs to take the initiative and step forward, not afraid of taking the blame, to look for opportunities, or to violently create a breach in the opponent's defenses."
Yan Che was silent for a while, then said, "Can the backup mid laner come up for practice in the Intercontinental Tournament? I think I might really be too old."
From what he said, it seemed like he really wanted to retire.
So far, GGB's last opponent is still POG.
If that's the case, then POG's pre-match joke came true, and Gu Yueshuang really beat Yan Che into retirement.
Gu Yueshuang put down the bottle and was stunned for a moment: "Are you going to retire? Have you thought it through?"
Yan Che was silent for a long time, and finally nodded solemnly: "Yes, I've thought about it."
The whole audience was silent.
No one expected that an old player would retire during the Intercontinental Championship.
Gu Yueshuang looked horrified. "I didn't force you to retire. Please make sure to control your fans and stop them from criticizing me. I won't take the blame. You'd better issue a statement saying, 'My retirement has nothing to do with Frost.'"
Yan Che: “…”
Is this the point??!
