Chapter 56
Chapter 56
None of the teams that can make it to the playoffs is a weak team, and AWG is also struggling to move forward.
Winning HTG, the next game was six to four, AWG ran into their old friend TLD, unfortunately they didn't fight, and were sent home 1-2.
Ended their journey in the spring.
Generally speaking, I don’t have any big regrets. Even if I lost the game, I played the game well, and the AWG this season is indeed not as good as last year. Although sometimes this "sixth man" is helping behind the scenes, But there are too many unpredictable things on the field of play, and it is impossible to cover everything.
Five people from TLD came over from the other side of the player's bench. Wei Qi grabbed his hair, extended his palm and gave them a high five, and said coolly, "If you don't win the championship, you can retire this year."
The TLD mid laner was killed three times by Wei Qidan in these few rounds. Hearing this, he withdrew his hand with a sad face and left without looking back.
Seeing that the camera moved away, Wei Qi stretched his waist and said, "Let's go too."
The AWG team walked out of the player bench side by side, no one said anything, but there was no loss and sadness on the face of losing the game.
The youngest among them has also played for at least three years, and has entered the World Championship three times. He has seen a lot of big scenes, and he is used to winning and losing. He rarely has big ups and downs.
——Unless they win the world championship.
The playoffs are over in early May, and we can rest for a short period of time, and then we will be intensively preparing for the upcoming summer split.
Generally speaking, the situation of AWG is not optimistic.
After the drastic revision of the spring game at the beginning of the year, the professional league of LOL puts more emphasis on the strategy, design and operation of the entire game. On the basis of the individual operation of the players, many elements that require resourcefulness and calculation have been added. Teams like AWG, which are good at team battles, are struggling.
The AWG desperately needs to make a change.
The status of the summer split is different from that of the spring split. The results of the summer split are directly related to the qualifications to enter the S14 season global finals-this year is the same as last year, and there are still four promotion places in the LPL division.
There are [-] teams in the league, and with the current state of AWG, they are far from the top four.
As the pace of the summer split gets closer and closer, the atmosphere in the AWG team has gradually become dignified.
They haven't played very well in the last few training games, especially against some mid-tier teams, and the results are often unsatisfactory, and the outcome is evenly split.
During the preparation period, Wei Qi felt unprecedented pressure and anxiety, but in order not to let his teammates find out, he kept hiding and did not show it.
——The meaning of this year's summer split is different, different from every previous one.
Shi Yan's one-year suspension is approaching, and soon he will be able to return to the professional league and become his teammate fighting side by side.
If AWG can enter the summer playoffs with the top eight results, Shiqian can take over the entire battle with absolute control after his comeback, and then overcome all obstacles to enter the World Championship, and even create another glory of the S11 season.
But if AWG's summer regular season results fail to enter the top eight and fail to qualify for the playoffs, then even if Shiqian returns, there will be no games to play for a long time to come.
Shi Que is 25 years old this year. I don't know how long he can play. Maybe he will retire next year like Brother Hao.
Wei Qi has never been so eager to win, he wants to be able to pick up the victory trophy with Shi Yan, even just once... He almost turned himself into a spinning top, training, replaying, training, replaying every day, Repeatedly.
But it is really difficult for him to improve. Wei Qi has always been the ceiling of mid laners, which can fully represent the highest gradient of mid laners in the world-in other words, his bottle is now full of water, even if he pours more water into it. Too much water can't hold it.
Shi Yan was the first to notice something was wrong.
In the middle of the night, the lights in the room were not turned on, only a computer in the corner was still shining with a dazzling white light, and the screen kept flickering in a trance. Wei Qi rubbed his bloodshot eyes, yawned sleepily, and moved his fingers. Opened the next training video.
He kept switching the player's perspective, paused the screen from time to time and lowered his head, recording something in his notebook.
A figure quietly walked to Wei Qi's side, reached out and turned off the computer screen, and said softly: "Wei Qi, it's past two o'clock, it's time to go to bed."
The voice was gentle and quiet, Wei Qi knew who it was without even thinking, and said in surprise: "...how did you come down?"
He sneaked down after Shi Que fell asleep, not wanting Shi Que to worry about him.
Shi Que turned on the headlight in the room, looked down at the densely packed replay notes in his notebook, "Have you been reading these lately?"
Wei Qi said "ah", and said vaguely: "Isn't the summer competition starting soon? I think those teams are quite good, so I want to study it, and I'm going to sleep right away."
——But Wei Qi should not be like this. He never particularly cares about winning or losing a certain game, and he doesn’t care about the strength of the opponent. He only cares about playing his style and showing his strength , Compared with the ending, Wei Qi cares more about the process of the game.
As for staying up late and secretly replaying the game alone, it has never happened. Wei Qi is a talented player and doesn't need to learn too much from other places.
Shi Yan frowned slightly, and he said, "It's very late now."
Wei Qi said as if nothing had happened: "Well, let's go back to sleep!"
Shi Yan's lips moved a bit, seeing the deep night outside the window, he didn't say anything in the end, and went back to the bedroom on the third floor with Wei Qi.
Wei Qi's sleepy face was numb, and he almost fell asleep, falling into a deep sleep within 2 minutes.
Shi Que sat on the edge of the bed, looked down at Wei Qi for a while, then used his fingers to brush the broken hair from his forehead to the back of his forehead, and turned off the light in the room.
The next day Wei Qi opened his eyes and woke up, seeing the bright sky outside, he was a little surprised why the alarm clock didn't go off, then glanced at his phone, his whole body shivered—it was ten o'clock in the morning!
He sat up suddenly from the bed, and pulled up a huge banner in his mind: "Wasting time is wasting life"!
Wei Qi kicked on his trousers two or three times, and ran out in a hurry, but just got out of bed, Shi Que opened the door and came from the outside.
Wei Qi almost bumped into him, stopped the car with his foot at the door, and then he laughed, showing a mouthful of white teeth: "Good morning!"
Shi Que said "um", his eyes fell on the bed behind him, and he said a word: "Sit."
Wei Qi: "..."
What happened to the sudden serious atmosphere of the "family meeting"?
He sat back on the bed obediently, looked at Shi Yan with a little trepidation: "...Brother?"
Wei Qi has been staying up late recently, and there are faint traces of dark circles under his eyes. Shi Que stared at him for a moment, and then sighed softly: "Don't stay up late, don't make yourself so tired, don't disrupt your work and rest, it will hurt your body."
Wei Qi didn't care too much and said: "...It's okay, young people don't stay up late, I just need to sleep a little longer during the day, and it doesn't happen every day, so don't worry."
Shi Que was silent for a moment, and said: "I remember, when I first arrived at AWG in September last year, you were not used to watching replays after games. Why did you suddenly become interested?"
Wei Qi smiled and said: "Ideological awareness has improved. Others are moving forward. If I stand still, I will retreat."
Shi Que asked softly, "Is it because of me?"
Wei Qi was stunned for a moment, but didn't speak for a while.
"Weiqi, I know you are not a person who likes to compare yourself with others, and you don't have to be that kind of person." Shi Yan looked at him deeply, and said in a low voice: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, I hope You just play every game to the best of your ability."
Shi Que's thoughts are exquisite and clear, and he can see what Wei Qi is thinking almost instantly, and he also knows why Wei Qi has been working hard day and night during this time.
His little friend wants him to finish this year's game without regrets, and wants to go to a higher place with him.
And the first half of the road was only walked by Wei Qi.
Shi Que said softly: "I know you want to play well in the summer split, and then... and then wait for me to come back, but don't put too much pressure on yourself, okay? I hope you can play every game happily, no matter what the ending is— — just like before.”
Wei Qi stood on the spot for a while, then lowered his head, rubbed his face hard, and told the truth without much struggle: "I know... I'm trying my best to adjust my mentality. I didn't want you to know. I didn't just I want to play in the summer split, as well as the playoffs and the global finals in the future. I want to continue to play with you. Every year, the team you lead can reach the finals, even last year's HOP... …I don't want to be that exception."
Wei Qi licked his lips, and said: "I'm really nervous recently. You know that AWG's state this season is not very good. It's not suitable for the version. It's a bit of a bottleneck period. The other teams are very strong. I'm afraid... ...I'm afraid I won't play well, so I want to learn how other strong teams play, I'm not tired...Really."
Wei Qi was afraid that they would fail to play well in team battles, so he could only make up for the areas they were not good at, and tried his best to study the so-called "tactics" and "operations", which are illusory things.
But it's really difficult.
Wei Qi lowered his head and didn't know how to describe his current mood to Shi Que. He just wanted to see Shi Que standing at the top. He could accept his mediocrity and failure, but he must see Shi Que standing at the top. On the altar.
Shi Que stroked his hair: "The World Championship is not the only option."
Shi Yan's voice was low and gentle: "Wei Qi, for me, being able to play games with you is a very good thing."
