Chapter 71
After a short break, the DPL Spring Playoffs began.
Because there are no summer seasons in major regions this year, the results of the spring playoffs will determine the qualification for the World Championship, and all teams entering the playoffs will give their all.
And it just so happened that the DPL playoffs were of an updated version, so in the first few rounds several SEA people gathered in front of the big TV to watch the games.
"Several mid-lane core heroes have been strengthened, including the Priest and Blade Dancer, but several have been weakened, forming a polarization."
Yan Shu said: "So now the priority of the mid-lane hero in BP has been raised again."
“But we don’t need to.”
Lu Yang was grinding his teeth with a toothpick in his hand: "And didn't RV also take the Little Flower Fairy in yesterday's game, even though they lost."
“That was a big problem.”
Gu Yuan said: "They don't know how to play that tactic at all, especially when the opponent is the OP mid-lane priest in this version. After the Higanbana Fairy reaches level 6, they don't even dare to replenish soldiers."
Lu Yang: “Indeed.”
Jiang Yiwen asked: "The OP of this version is the Sacrifice, does Brother Su have any idea of coming out?"
Su Zheye: “No.”
Yan Shusheng glanced at him.
Su Zheye immediately changed his words: "It's not impossible, I'll just listen to the coach."
Yan Shusheng flipped open his notebook and said, "You have played more ranked games of Sacrifice in the past week, and you have won twelve and lost three."
"An OP hero."
Su Zheye laughed: "My teammates are too bad recently. If I want to get higher points, I have to be the C."
Yan Shusheng still had a serious look on his face: "How come I didn't know that in just one week, the overall strength of the players in the entire Canyon of Heroes has declined?"
Su Zheye: “…”
This joke wasn't funny at all coming from Yan Shusheng's mouth.
Without waiting for Su Zheye to respond, Yan Shusheng continued, "Also, the main AD heroes in the previous version, Nightingale Archer and Tripod Golden Crow, were also nerfed. We need to ensure our output in the later stages."
When Lu Yang heard this, he got angry: "The designers should just delete the AD. Heroes who are strong in the early game can't survive anyway, and they strengthened them, forcing people to just fight in the laning phase."
Su Zheye was silent for two seconds, and then he told the truth: "This is also one of the reasons why I have been playing the ritual recently."
Yan Shusheng asked: "So why don't you get the 80% winning rate in the ranking in the competition?"
"I'm fine."
Su Zheye said: "All is up to the coach's instructions."
“Although Night has only played Priest twice in the entire regular season, the opponent will most likely ban heroes against him.”
Yan Shu said, "Next Friday we will play the winner of SFG and TRG. The mid laners of these two teams are not particularly strong. We will continue with the regular season play style. When we play against XY in the finals, we will need to adapt to the situation."
"Can."
Lu Yang said: "The coach has already tacitly agreed that we will enter the finals."
Yan Shusheng turned around and said, "With the configuration of our team this year, do you still think we can't make it to the finals?"
"Too."
Lu Yang suddenly became excited: "I must go in!!"
-
The time interval between each round of the playoffs is not long, especially since they are divided into two halves.
SEA beat TRG 3:1. Three days later, the winners of the upper and lower half will compete, which is the final of the DPL Spring Tournament.
Since the start of the playoffs, Su Zheye and Gu Yuan have been doing high-intensity training every day. Su Zheye found that Gu Yuan was in really good health and had no effect at all after training for so long during the day. However, he felt sleepy as soon as he returned to his room.
So for a few days, Gu Yuan helped his little fox change clothes and wash, and then fell asleep quietly while holding the little fox.
Two days before the finals, Su Zheye and Gu Yuan walked downstairs.
TRG has been eliminated, and in preparation for the World Championship qualifiers, the two teams scheduled a training match for today.
After playing three games and Yan Shusheng reviewing the games with them, the SEA players continued their respective rankings.
“——Fuck!!”
Lu Yang suddenly jumped up.
He was often startled, so no one in SEA paid any attention to him.
"What the hell."
Lu Yang stood there and swiped the mouse, his eyes widened as he watched: "Brother Su! Your former teammate is setting the pace for you!!"
Gu Yuan raised his eyes before Su Zheye: "What?"
"It's your bad and pretentious assistant - Jiang Yiwen, I'm not talking about you."
Lu Yang was eager to survive at this time. He glanced at Jiang Yiwen and continued, "It was your previous assistant, Su Ge. He let the cat out of the bag during the live broadcast."
Su Zheye thought for a second before realizing that Lu Yang was talking about Straw, and slowly took off his headphones.
Gu Yuan had already walked over: "What's wrong?"
Lu Yang was lying in front of the computer: "I haven't looked closely yet, but when I saw the forum homepage was full of Su Ge and this Straw's ID, I felt something was wrong... Damn, he said you hit someone???"
Su Zheye was stunned.
Gu Yuan frowned, took the mouse and clicked on the top post with the word [Going viral].
The title of the post is: [The truth behind Night’s departure from XY revealed—it turned out to be beating and bullying teammates? ? ! ! ]
From the title to the opening paragraph, it is all written in the exaggerated and eye-catching style of a marketing account, and it is not until the middle that the source video is released.
It was XY mid laner Memory who was live streaming. Straw had just come back from outside and didn't know he was live streaming. After all, he didn't speak very well in the language, so Memory didn't quite understand what Straw was saying, so he didn't speak up to remind him that he was live streaming.
Memory didn't turn on the camera, but from the noise, he could tell that it was Straw who brought his girlfriend in.
The female voice said, "Does your club have tickets for family members? Tickets for the finals are so hard to buy. Every time it's SEA vs. XY, those fans haven't seen enough. I'm really impressed."
Straw sneered: "I want to know too. I see people talking about their wives all over the place when I play a game. It makes me sick."
“Oh.”
Su Zheye walked behind the three of them without knowing when. "It seems that someone has the same problem with my fans calling me wife as you do, Xiao Yang."
"Grass!!"
Lu Yang was not happy at this time: "Is this person sick? What's wrong with you when other people's fans call Su Ge's wife? Are you so angry because you don't have any fans?"
Jiang Yiwen looked at Straw on the screen, then looked at Lu Yang.
“6.”
He said: "Some people even curse themselves when they get ruthless."
Lu Yang: “…”
Then there was a meaningless conversation of more than ten seconds, all of which was Straw talking about his fans and Su Zheye. His girlfriend was quite similar to him in this respect, and she joined in the complaints.
“I’m really fucking convinced!”
Straw didn't know what he saw, and he got angry again: "If the boss hadn't suppressed the surveillance and didn't let him go, would he be living such a good life now?? I put up with him for two years and finally he gave me this. If I had known he was going to transfer, I would have fought back directly."
"Forget it, just listen to the boss."
The girlfriend said, "He said he would give you justice, and even though he had always protected Night before, he seems to be angry this time."
The video recording in Memory's live broadcast room ended here, because he saw that the screen was full of comments like [??? ??? ?] and [Night beat someone up???]. He seemed to realize that Straw had said something he shouldn't have, and immediately turned off the microphone.
But after this recording was broadcast online, the comment sections from forums to Weibo exploded.
[6 ah, I think Night's transfer is problematic. The boss can even protect him from beating his teammates. What a big star he is. ]
[No ban, no ban, no ban? ? ? The league doesn’t care about such a bad thing? ? Even the boss can’t stand it anymore. ]
[Uh, did no one notice why Straw brought his girlfriend into the XY base... and his girlfriend seems to know a lot about the private affairs of the e-sports circle. He is really not afraid of being backstabbed by himself and his teammates. ]
[Su Xiaozi, are you still washing your clothes? You got beaten by your teammates, but you didn't tell your girlfriend and you still protected the person who beat you? ? What do you mean by being a pua master? No wonder you are a fan of Night. I am dying of laughter. ]
[I've said before that Night's fans are all elementary school students with distorted values. They are still proud of this kind of thing. I hope your colleagues and friends will stab you in the back in the future. 】
The SEA training room was silent for a few seconds, and Lu Yang spoke first, pointing at the screen: "Brother Su, look at him, what the hell is the meaning of making such a big move before the finals?"
"I remember this Straw."
Sui Ran stood up at some point, "He seems to have a lot of complaints about the captain, saying that the captain is pretentious, but he himself is a pretentious and useless person, wandering around the jungle every day, sweeping his mother's grave, and can't even clear the wards or provide vision."
"yes!"
Lu Yang was angry: "I have always disliked this person. He relies on his good looks and a few fans to be arrogant every day."
"Where's the manager?"
Jiang Yiwen stood up: "Hasn't he seen the news yet?"
"You should have seen it."
Gu Yuan said: "After lunch, he hurried to the office. He probably didn't want us to know or get involved."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the training room was pushed open from the outside.
When Huang Heran saw the five people gathered together, he paused, and then a bad thought emerged in his mind: "Did you see it?"
Lu Yang nodded: "This forum and Weibo super topic have exploded. It's hard for us not to see it."
"well."
Huang Heran touched his nose and said, "What he said is too ambiguous, but it was said by Team Member XY himself... I had a meeting with the Public Relations Department for the whole afternoon, and decided to ask Zhe Ye."
"That's right."
Gu Yuan said: "Straw's girlfriend said, 'Boss XY has always protected Night, and he seems to be angry this time' because..."
His voice stopped abruptly and his eyes turned to Su Zheye.
"You tell me."
Su Zheye shrugged: "I don't care."
"Um."
Gu Yuan then said, "Because Boss XY likes Zhe Ye, and that person has some issues with his character. He had been hiding his true nature and wanted to pursue Zhe Ye, but Zhe Ye transferred to SEA without hesitation, which made him realize that it was fruitless, so he got angry out of shame."
Except for Gu Yuan and Su Zheye, the other four people all widened their eyes.
"When Zhe Ye first moved in, he came to our base to cause trouble once. So I think if there is surveillance, he must be looking for a better time."
After a pause, Gu Yuan continued, "For example, during the Olympic training camp and when the final roster was decided."
The training room was dead silent, but upon closer inspection, Huang Heran's solar plexus was already beating.
Su Zheye was a little curious: "Gu Yuan, do you really think I hit someone?"
"How is that possible?"
Lu Yang interrupted: "Brother Su is such a good person, how could he hit his teammates? I offended him thoroughly during the first tryout."
Jiang Yiwen: "...You know that too."
Sui Ran: “It’s really impossible.”
Huang Heran also said: "It is indeed impossible."
Who knew that Su Zheye laughed: "What if I said I really did it?"
Lu Yang: “?”
Jiang Yiwen: “?”
Sui Ran: “?”
Huang Heran's mouth became O-shaped.
Although the words were spoken to everyone, Su Zheye was looking at Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan looked at him and was silent for two seconds before saying, "Even if you did it, he deserved it."
Su Zheye was stunned.
"that is!"
Lu Yang's expression changed instantly and he rolled up his sleeves: "I've been annoyed with him for a long time. If I were Brother Su, I would beat him up too! He deserves a beating!"
"yes."
Sui Ran, who usually keeps quiet, also spoke up: "Next time you want to fight, call me. I may not be good at playing games, but I'm definitely good at fighting."
Su Zheye couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Although he never cared about what the outside world thought of him, such a "confirmed" and obvious fact would probably still cause his teammates to have some concerns in their hearts... or plant a seed of doubt, which never affected the subsequent team relationships and cooperation.
This is also the result that XY wants to see most.
Su Zheye never expected that his teammates, whom he had only been with for three months, would show him blatant favoritism and support.
Huang Heran holds the same view, but he also knows that he cannot post this directly on the SEA official Weibo account. Not only will it not help, but it will make the matter worse.
And Su Zheye...
Huang Heran always felt that based on his understanding of Su Zheye, Su Zheye would not do such a thing for no reason.
But it seemed that Su Zheye had no intention of explaining, so how should I ask him the reason?
Huang Heran was a little worried.
"Don't worry, Manager Huang."
Gu Yuan suddenly spoke up at this time: "Zhe Ye beat Straw because Straw played a fake match. I have been asking people to investigate and look for evidence recently, and I have found some clues recently."
"Once I find enough evidence, I will report it directly to the league. Then I won't have to worry about them using the surveillance footage to cause trouble."
Su Zheye was stunned.
