Chapter 378 Hello Fellow Villagers!
Lin Cheng didn't expect that he was knocking on Kuro's door, but Kuro didn't wake up, and all the other teammates were resurrected.
Although he felt that he occupied the moral high ground, people who were still asleep would not talk to him about morality.
"Hey! Since you all asked so kindly, Brother Cheng will be merciful and let you sleep for a while."
Fearing that he would be beaten up by teammates who were angry when they woke up, Lin Cheng muttered softly and took out his phone to dial Kuro's number.
Cluck, cluck, cluck~~~
Soon, the devilish chicken march came faintly from Kuro's door.
Bang! Boom!
Finally, there was movement inside.
The door was opened, and Kuro looked at Lin Cheng with a dark face in his pajamas, while bending down to rub his knees and hissing constantly in his mouth, as if he had just had a small accident.
"Why are you calling so early? You almost scared me to death."
Looking at Kuro's dark face, Lin Cheng said cheerfully: "How come you have become so darker in a month? If you get darker, makeup can't save you."
Kuro just woke up and stared at Lin Cheng with lifeless dead fish eyes, "If you have something to say, just say it."
Lin Cheng: "Actually, it's nothing. I just want to ask if you are awake. If you are not awake, continue to sleep."
"····"
Kuro opened his mouth and felt his anger accumulating rapidly.
After playing a mean trick, Lin Cheng turned around and ran back to his dormitory quickly, not giving Kuro a chance to attack with red fury.
"Hahaha! Let you eat alone! Eat alone and your mouth will be rotten!"
Lin Cheng, who had escaped, avoided the limelight in the dormitory for a while, and then went into the training room to start a solo queue.
In the next two days, under the contact of Kang Dongxun, KT had training matches with several other LCK teams participating in MSC this time.
KT also tried more jungle core play, but found helplessly that their team did not seem to be very suitable for the jungle core route, and the effect was not as good as the one they played in the spring season.
Although Bono spent a holiday practicing heroes like Nidalee, he was still not good enough to play.
Bono's best jungle core hero is definitely Karthus, but the opponent's jungle cores all use Nidalee and Graves, how can you play Karthus?
There was no way, and finally in the last training match before the MSC game, KT returned to its essence and no longer forced to change its play style.
In this training match, KT easily swept the opponent.
The grouping of MSC has long been determined, but the specific schedule was not finally announced until the start of the game.
The eight participating teams are divided into two groups, and the first and fourth teams in the two divisions are in the same group with the second and third teams in the other division.
The four teams in the same group will play a single round-robin BO1 match, and the top two teams in points will eventually advance to the knockout stage.
KT and DRX are in Group A, along with TES and FPX, and the remaining four teams form Group B.
The schedule is very tight, and the entire MSC will take a total of four days.
The two qualifying places for Group A will be decided on the first day, and the places for Group B will also be determined on the second day. The two BO5s of the semi-finals and finals will be played in the next two days.
On May 28, the long-awaited day of the MSC arrived.
At 3 pm Korean time, the entire KT team boarded the bus to the LOL PARK in Jongno District.
Although this competition is an online competition, the players from the two divisions need to compete in offline venues in the two places respectively, and the LCK side will naturally be held in the LOL PARK.
The only LCK teams playing today are KT and DRX in Group A. The players of both sides happened to meet when they arrived at the venue, and greeted each other in a friendly manner before entering the lounge.
The first game will be played by KT against FPX, which ranks third in the LPL Spring Split.
Staring at the live broadcast screen in the lounge, Lin Cheng was full of anticipation, "Wow! Finally there is another game to play, I am almost rusty."
Kuro: "Will you be nervous for the first time playing against teams from other regions?"
Lin Cheng: "No! I am not nervous at all. I beat Jin Donghe every day in RANK, so I am very familiar with it!"
Kuro: "..."
No wonder Jin Donghe instigated me to say some very connotative Chinese to you every day, everything is not without reason.
As everyone talked and laughed, the time approached four o'clock. The players of the two teams were ready in the exit channel, and the opening ceremony was about to begin.
Seeing Keria standing at the end of the DRX team like a punching bag, Lin Cheng said cheerfully: "Minxi! Play well today, and remember to treat me to a meal after the game."
Keria readily agreed, but Mr. Dai looked at Lin Cheng and said: "You are older than Minxi, shouldn't you treat me?"
Keria waved his hand quickly, "Ah~~~ I said I would treat you to a meal before, but I never had the chance."
"Play well! Try not to be eliminated."
Lin Cheng reached out and put his hand on Keria's shoulder. He also sent blessings to Mr. Dai, "Don't die again today, remember to play Jayce without teleport."
Deft: "····"
You know, the original EDG teleport brothers were not only remembered by the LPL audience, but even now there are still LCK audiences who mention his "Golden Lantern" Jayce from time to time.
The other members of DRX were not familiar with Lin Cheng. Seeing this scene, they felt that this guy was just a bully who came to provoke.
Keria was only 17 years old and not very tall. When Lin Cheng put his arm around her shoulders, she looked like a child. Lin Cheng was holding the child while exposing Mr. Dai's scars. Isn't this a typical villain?
Mr. Dai was about to say something harsh, but Kuro ran over and pulled Lin Cheng away. He felt that if this little brother continued to be so arrogant, he would be beaten to death outside sooner or later.
After waving to Mr. Dai and Keria, Lin Cheng returned to the team and stared at the broadcast screen next to him.
Just then, the host appeared on the stage of LOL PARK.
The host on the scene was Li Xianjing, the female host who had hosted the SKY High School e-sports competition.
The opening ceremony of MSC this time was simple. Only the offline hosts of both sides introduced the teams.
"Hey! She seems very nervous."
Seeing that the cue card in Li Xianjing's hand seemed to be shaking a little, Lin Cheng felt incredible.
Kuro hesitated: "She has been hosting for several years, she shouldn't be so nervous."
Just then, the DRX players came on stage, walked around the competition seats and stood in front of the stage, and then left from the other side of the stage after the host introduced them one by one.
Such a short process made Lin Cheng call it sloppy in the backstage.
But sloppy as it was, it was KT's turn to come on stage.
Lin Cheng took the lead and stood in front of the stage. When Li Xianjing introduced his ID, Lin Cheng waved to the camera.
If there was no microphone, Lin Cheng would even want to say to the domestic LPL audience:
Fellow countrymen, hello!
In the Chinese live broadcast room, many viewers who usually don't pay attention to LCK games also left the Cheng ID and had an impression of Lin Cheng himself for the first time.
"Is this the legendary LCK Chinese foreign aid?"
"Fuck! So handsome,"
"I have only seen his operation highlights, I didn't expect the real person to be so handsome."
"Brother Cheng, don't play professionally, come and fence with me."
