Chapter 29: Adding Flowers to Brocade is Not as Good as Sending Charcoal in Snow
"Hello everyone, I'm the original host, welcome to watch the live broadcast of the regular season. The passionate voice of Xiao Zhi is still so low and sexy. Today, we're going to record the first-person perspective of League of Legends again..."
As soon as Chen Chengcai pushed open the door, a voice with extremely fast speech but unclear enunciation, obviously suffering from a severe tongue-tied condition, came out of the room!
Introducing Xiao Zhi, also known as Wu Qilong from Hulu Island, the most popular folk commentator among League of Legends players today!
No need to think, Ge Dapao is listening to Xiao Zhi's stories about his sister-in-law and dumplings playing chicken again!
Just as Ge Dapao was staring at the screen with a lewd smile on his face, a thick contract appeared in front of him.
"What's wrong?" Ge Dapao was taken aback and turned his head to look at Chen Cheng.
Chen Cheng plopped down on the sofa, staring at the ceiling and said: "The LCD Club's contract, I might really have to go pro..."
"Did I hear that right? The LCD Club?" Ge Dapao listened, hastily picked up the contract and flipped through a few pages, until he confirmed that Chen Cheng was not joking, before suddenly jumping up from his chair. "Are you crazy? With so many good teams to choose from, why would you want to go to this second-rate team with no prospects?"
Ge Dapao's face turned serious, and he immediately lost interest in watching videos!
LCD team? The one that started with DOTA and is famous, completely treating LOL as a sideline business?
"Chen Cheng, listen to me. We're not without options, are we? W1 and Wangzu have invited you before, which aspect of them is weaker than LCD's team? Why can't you consider these two teams?" Ge Dapao felt it was necessary to give Chen Cheng a lesson, holding the entry tickets for the two e-sports giants in his hand, yet he insisted on going to LCD, one of the three weakest teams. He really couldn't understand what was going through his roommate's mind!
Let's not mention the old calendar for now, taking this year's spring season as an example, W1, as one of the top four in the regular season, has already secured a spot in the playoffs and will soon compete with EDG and IC for the spring season championship. The team's strength is absolutely capable of leaving LCD far behind!
Another royal war team, although their regular season score ranking is one place lower than LCD, ranked 6th. However, it was reported as early as a month ago that Korea's top jungler Insec and promising player ZERO have already signed with the royal war team and will make their debut in the summer game, becoming the royal war team's foreign aid!
How strong Insec is, but anyone who has seen the 2013 All-Star game understands that he is a god-level existence who has been feeding the No. 1 jungler in the national server for three consecutive games, and beat the factory owner without any temper!
Not to mention that Wang's team also has a trump card, the god-level ADC UZI, who can steadily rank among the top three in the world!
If LPL is compared to the NBA, UZI is Kobe and Insec is O'Neal. Two super giant stars like gods, which professional player doesn't want to hug their thighs?
"Also, wasn't STYZ, the former core of LCD team, banned for a year because he privately contacted other clubs? Don't look at Ge Dapao's segment being not high, but because of his fondness for W1 team, he understands many things in the LOL professional circle more thoroughly than Chen Cheng. "Even STYZ is gone, which means that LCD's only bottom lane that can compete with these strong teams is also gone. Is an club that can't even keep its core player worth going all out for?"
Ge Dapao said with a tone of "hating iron for not becoming steel", all players who pay attention to the spring season know that LCD team's fifth place in the spring season is largely due to the former ADC player STYZ! This player, known as the weakened version of UZI, has extremely strong abilities, especially in team fights, and is often able to carry the team and turn the tide of battle, which is why LCD can barely stand firm in the LPL.
If I'm not mistaken, the first pentakill of the spring season was taken down by STYZ's female police officer?
But now that STYZ has left, which position in the remaining LCD team can be considered top-notch domestically except for the captain Hana?
Besides, the version of S3 is already in the past tense, and the mode of one god bringing four pits has also become a legend. In the more team-dependent S4 version, relying solely on individual strength is simply impossible!
Even UZI, who is considered a god with four legs, only got 6th place and barely avoided relegation in the spring season that just ended, let alone others?
Why did STYZ leave the team? Wasn't it because his teammates were too dragging, making him see no hope, so he decisively transferred and privately contacted other clubs?
In League of Legends, there are three words that have been most commonly spoken by players and have been passed down for several versions without fading away, which is "can't carry"!
At first glance, it's just three words, but if you delve deeper, these three words absolutely represent a bloody history. There are too many examples of this in the League of Legends arena, and they can't be counted!
"Ah, Chen Cheng, you're still too young after all!" Ge Dapao said with a heavy heart. "Don't say that I'm not kind to my brothers, this time I won't force you to go to W1, is that okay? We've been through thick and thin together, I really can't bear to see you waste your youth, on this point you must listen to me, give up LCD and join the Wang clan team!"
Ge Dapao keenly noticed that the contract Chen Cheng brought back had not been signed, which meant that Chen Cheng had not yet signed with LCD.
This is undoubtedly a great news for him!
"I'm telling you, if the Wangzuan team doesn't make it to the top three in the summer tournament, I'll behead them! You can take my word for it!" Ge Dapao said with a thump on his chest. Although he didn't want to admit it, the Wangzuan team, which had absorbed two Korean players, absolutely had the strength to compete with the domestic overlord ONG!
Compared to this, although I heard that W1 also recruited two foreign aids from Korea, both of them are completely unknown and nameless players, they just have a relatively high ranking in the Korean server. Compared to Insec and Zero, these two superstars, it's simply like heaven and earth, can't be mentioned on the same day!
Who says 60E are all brain-dead fans? Ge Da Pao thinks he is very rational at this moment!
"What then? Hug their thighs?" Chen Cheng, however, was expressionless, not moved in the slightest. Although he also wanted to achieve results and yearned to prove himself on the field, he absolutely could not tolerate winning a game by relying solely on others, especially Koreans!
As a veteran player who has been paying attention to various competitions since S2, how could Chen Cheng not see which team is the strongest at present? Which team has the most promising future?
Don't look at Chen Cheng, who is no different from ordinary League of Legends players on a daily basis. He has an optimistic attitude, likes to spit and tease, and even occasionally comes up with self-deprecating remarks like "I'm 0-3 too". In the forum and Tieba, he chats with water friends about how strong the big devil king is, how weak domestic players are, and how many centuries Chinese e-sports lags behind Korean e-sports.
But that's just the surface, anyone who has added Chen Cheng as a gaming friend knows that he never teams up with friends who are in higher ranks than him, even during crucial promotion matches and rank-up matches!
Deep down inside, Chen Cheng is still a very proud person, he has always only relied on his own abilities!
Not wanting to cling to the thighs of Koreans is one thing, but more importantly, his strong pride deep down does not allow him to humble himself and lower his head to others.
Whether it's W1 or Wangzuan, both teams have already had their own core and ace players, many routines and strategies are fixed, even if Chen Cheng went to the most, he can only add flowers to the brocade, and can't show himself at all!
But the LCD team is different, with former core STYZ just leaving, at a time when the team is undergoing major changes and needs a leader to lead them out of their current slump and change their tactics. Chen Cheng also needs a platform that allows him to play to his strengths!
Adding flowers to brocade is never as good as sending charcoal in snowy weather!
Ge Dapao only knows that the Wang clan and W1 are powerful, but he has never thought about what it means to be a leader rather than a follower, nor does he know what it means for opportunities and challenges to coexist!
Once Chenchen decided to play professionally, he never planned to become a subordinate to others, even if it was UZI and Insec.
He has to rely on himself!
