Chapter 432 Captain, Don't Retire!
Accompanied by the explosion of the base, TG finally lost the most crucial battle and ended the journey of this world championship.
"I... lost?"
Looking at the word "failure" on the screen, the captain lowered his head in deep pain.
Since when did he become the representative of LPL?
That year should be S3, which was the closest time for them to win the championship, but they fell to RDX in the same division.
Since then, they have never advanced to the semi-finals, and they have fallen in the quarter-finals every year.
Fail, stand up, fail, stand up...
Every year, they repeat this kind of thing, but they can never break through the curse of the quarter-finals.
The word failure is like a curse, even in dreams, it has been haunting him.
Invincible at home, poor in foreign wars, and phantom gods in domestic wars are the names given to them by netizens.
Finally, they fell in the top 16. The accumulated fatigue came like a tide, crushing the last straw.
The tight string that Captain had been holding... broke...
"Get up..."
Suddenly, he was called up by the AD next to him. Turning his head, he saw that several people from OPL had come over to shake hands.
Taking a deep breath, Captain stood up and held back his tears, then shook hands with the other party.
Zitao also stood up, but his eyes were filled with numbness and decadence...
The Captain had fought for several years, so was he?
In his mind, he even had the idea of retiring...
The handshake was quick, one after another, and there was no communication between the two sides.
From the perspective of OPL, they didn't need to say anything to a loser. Their goal was to hit the final championship, and TG was just one of their opponents.
However, when they saluted the audience, they found that there were few cheers from the audience, and more of a sad mood.
"Is this the home advantage?"
OPL's jungler Monster smiled contemptuously, and then said: "I hope SHE can be assigned to us. I want to send another team away."
The teammates who were packing up their peripherals also smiled and didn't say anything. In their eyes, this was the fact.
Even KG, the strongest team in LPL, was just a more difficult character in their eyes. They were the first in the group and couldn't meet in the quarterfinals. It was more realistic to expect SHE.
As a team in LCK, they looked down on YUT for losing to KG twice. If TG would be scolded after going back to the top 16, then YUT's two defeats would definitely not end better than KG.
As the winner, OPL quickly packed up his peripherals and then left the stage without paying any attention to TG on the stage.
"Captain——"
All TG fans looked at the back of the captain, who seemed to have become extremely old, and felt that he was very tired.
Some fans couldn't help but scream, but they immediately held back and could only watch all the TG players walk off the stage.
Don't think that the audience is full of haters. How could anyone who came to cheer for TG be a hater? Most people who saw TG fail were heartbroken...
Some people ran directly to the back of the venue. They had already seen TG's car. This time, the car that picked them up was not going to Guangzhou, but back to their original base...
The weather was getting colder, and some girls didn't wear much, so they were shivering from the cold, but no one left. They just waited there, waiting for that person to come out.
I don't know how long it took, all the TG members came out, and under the protection of the security guards, everyone was ready to get on the car.
"Captain..."
Some fans screamed, and the voice was mostly sad.
"Sorry..."
Before getting on the car, the captain turned his head and said to all the fans: "I'm sorry to disappoint you..."
Then, the captain got on the car.
His words made the fans feel a bad premonition.
One of the female fans shouted to the captain: "Captain, don't retire! Captain!"
The voice was so tearful that many fans at the scene were infected by this emotion and couldn't help crying.
TG's car had already driven away, leaving only the fans on the spot.
Now, these fans no longer care about TG's results. For them, they only hope to see that person continue to stay on the field and continue to fight.
Five years, one ID, one team, he carried too much...
After the TG journey ended, the more than 21,000 spectators at the Wuzhou Sports Center would have more or less the real and imaginary stories about the captain in their minds.
The captain was born in a small county town in Wuzhou in 1992. His father was an athlete and his family was also well-off.
Inheriting his father's talent, the captain is very good at sprinting. In every sports meeting, he is the only one to stand out from 50 meters to 100 meters.
Later, he fell in love with a game called League of Legends. When everyone thought it was a waste of time, his parents supported him and told him to stick to the end...
With the support of his family, he began to work hard in League of Legends.
Based on his excellent awareness and operational ability, he shined in the League of Legends City Championship and got the opportunity to play against professional teams.
In that game, he faced the third team in North America and led the team to win a game with a score of 18 to 12.
In this game, their mid laner was the future LPL mid laner, Wang Yilong.
If this team continues, no one knows what will happen in the future.
Because of his outstanding performance, he became well-known. Later, he was spotted by several teams in the initial LPL. He had signed a contract with OG, but was traded to TG by OG in exchange for all the players of TG at that time.
TG almost broke the whole team apart for him, but fortunately, they held on.
Therefore, he stayed here for the rest of his career. This is his second home!
When he first entered the LPL, his performance in the spring game was relatively poor because the team's players were too poor. Although he contributed the first vision score, first assists and first KDA in the jungle position, he still lost to his old friend, QZ led by Wang Yilong.
Until later, TG introduced Zitao, who was a big shot in the pub game, and the whole team ushered in a transformation.
In the S3 season, he reached the first peak of his career in the summer season. Among the nine teams, he and Zitao's mid and jungle crushed seven of them.
This season is also unforgettable for him, because this season does not belong to him, but to another team, the man named Rifle.
He was a big killer in the group stage, but met RDX from the same school in the semifinals. After winning the first game, RDX's Rifle was like a god, winning three games in a row with the highest economy and the highest output in the team.
The captain looked at the RDX people who were celebrating wantonly, and he tasted the heart-piercing pain for the first time...
In the subsequent S4, they looked down on the entire LPL, and even swept RDX in the summer game, avenged their defeat, and won the first FMVP.
In the eyes of the LPL audience, such TG deserves the global championship.
But reality gave them a slap in the face. In the next game, they met BL team in the quarterfinals. The coach of this team was Killer, the champion of the last season.
3:1, TG was kicked out by BL and went home in the quarterfinals, which was even worse than the last semifinals. This time, the captain's wound was torn even bigger.
It is easy to ridicule, but it is difficult to bear...
But the captain gritted his teeth and persisted. In S5, with the desire for the championship, he embarked on the journey again. Whether it was Wang Yilong or Rifle, the captain defeated them.
This year, he was still unstoppable and came to the world championship.
His opponents were the fledgling KL and the newly mature King.
In the eyes of everyone, TG was about to win the victory of this game, but in the face of the younger King, every move of the captain was seen through, as if in King's eyes, all the moves were transparent.
In the last team battle of the first game, after Zitao Syndra failed to kill the opponent's AD, TG no longer had the ability to resist KL's attack.
3-0, in the sports center in Incheon, South Korea, amid the cheers of the home court, he was once again swept out by the LCK team.
As for the story of S6, everyone already knows it. The quarterfinals for three consecutive years are more like a ruthless mockery of fate again and again for the captain...
One day, the captain, Rifle, Zitao, and other veterans will leave the stage. This is the loss of the League of Legends, but also its treasure.
I also believe that one day, the successors will take the same path as the captain, overcoming all obstacles and honing their way forward!
The future is still going on! This is the League of Legends, this is the e-sports competition!
The content of this chapter has been revised again and again, but I am still not satisfied with it. I revised it again before posting it.
Pay tribute to the veterans and enrich the role of the captain in the book. I don’t want him to be just the clone of the factory manager.
Thank you all for your continued support. Thank you
