Reclaiming glory starts with LGD

Chapter 8 Mingkai's Target

LGD has announced another personnel change.

Tabe (Wang Baiqin) has officially joined LGD as an analyst. We will work together to overcome challenges and achieve great success....

The outside world is laughing their heads off.

Even optimistic LGD fans felt utterly devastated.

How many more outrageous things will this club do next?

The previous signings could be considered reinforcements, albeit with some difficulty.

So why did you call this e-sports Wang Jingwei here now?

Yes, the internet really does have no memory. Perhaps a long time from now, everyone will forget the fact that Tabe betrayed IG's tactics on the commentary desk during the S5 World Championship.

The key point is that so little time has passed.

LGD, do you really like eating that stuff? That's disgusting!

As a result, both netizens and fans were hurling insults at the official Weibo account.

The next day.

After reading the comments section, Jiang Xia kindly said to Tabe, "Actually, there's no need to care about these things. I invited you, and the team members all approve of you."

If it was meant to mock Jiang Xia, he certainly wouldn't care.

But Jiang Xia is quite worried about how Tabe will be affected by these things.

"I don't...."

Suddenly, Tabe nodded seriously again: "Never mind, actually I care a lot, so I'll respond to these things on the field."

"Okay, then."

........

After several more days of training, the group became increasingly familiar with each other.

Tabe took on the role of analyst, providing data analysis and individual training for each player based on the new challenges.

"Marin, your adherence to the half-zone principle is still insufficient. Listen more to the minimap from now on..."

"Eimy, farm less jungle camps. Don't take counter-jungling so seriously. Jungling is about creating tempo, and that's something you can't buy with ten jungle camps..."

"Knight, trust your own judgment. Sometimes, in your communication, don't ask questions, but directly ask..."

"IMP, get serious..."

"Pyl, is IMP too gentle? You don't feel any pressure, so you're very relaxed..."

Everyone was nodding, except Pyl, who was being stubborn.

"Pu-shin is gentle, but I haven't let my guard down either."

Tabe really wants to say that if I had a frustrating matchup against Uzi, I would have been bombarded with criticism.

"Alright, I got it. Brother Jiang gave me a bunch of videos, I'll definitely study them carefully."

The above is just a general overview; each person received a detailed data sheet.

Ultimately, since they had never seen these things before, everyone's first reaction was that they were intimidated.

Wow, that's really professional, right? Then I followed along and carried it out.

Haert, on the other hand, lent a hand and offered his opinions.

His smile grew brighter, and he felt much more comfortable this way than when he was the head coach.

This is the job he likes, at least for now.

Jiang Xia stretched lazily to the side.

I called Su Xiaoche to ask how she was doing, then took out my editing tools and got back to my old job.

After practicing for a while, a brand new video was produced in less than an hour.

Add a title.

[The hottest solo queue player, LGD's new mid laner, Knight, just how good is he? A first-person perspective shows him laning against Faker and leading his team to victory!]

The competition is about to start, so we still need to give our little brother some encouragement.

The video caused a huge stir on the internet within just a few hours of its release.

After all, everyone is eager for the season during the off-season.

Let's fight it out.

Besides digging into the players' tidbits, the fans also chatted about the backstories of certain female commentators.

Then you just wait for a new job to come along and get some experience points.

Especially those related to LGD, the "Legendary Battleship".

Hey guys, have you seen Jiangxia's new video?

[Wow, this LGD mid laner is really something!]

[After all, his ranking is there; it feels like he could be the next Little Tiger.]

[What about Xiaohu? Xiaohu has already solo-killed Faker three times in the competition, where is he?]

But they are indeed capable.

How so?

The expert simply copied and pasted the video.

Click on it, and you'll find a sexy and magnetic voice.

Twisted Fate vs. Syndra: A classic Twisted Fate matchup.

"Alright, let's see how Knight handles his cards."

"Upon going live, Syndra tried to get a free Q by positioning herself perfectly, and Twisted Fate positioned himself very well, taking a small step forward to tank Syndra's Q, then countered with an AW to reset his auto-attack and use a blue card, a very good trade of health."

"The key point is here: after exchanging blows, Syndra retreated to draw minion aggro, while Twisted Fate chose to auto-attack a ranged minion once more before retreating, causing the minion wave to shift closer to Twisted Fate's side."

"When you're last-hitting ranged minions, you'll have more room to dodge Syndra's Q. You can easily reach level 2, learn Q, and use Wild Cards. Control the minion wave and don't let it push into the tower."

"That will make things much more comfortable afterwards."

"......."

The following scene shows Syndra constantly under pressure from the jungler due to the minion wave.

After all, in high-elo games, junglers understand how to synergize well with Twisted Fate's yellow card, so the mid-lane advantage was quickly established.

Then came wave after wave of flying big shots, with viewers who were following the trend exclaiming – "How can we get them?"

Although there weren't any amazing plays or 1v5 maneuvers.

However, this smooth rhythm occurred in the high-elo Korean server, where he was matched up against Faker.

It also made the audience feel extremely elegant.

It's so advanced that even they wouldn't understand it without explanation; they'd be too embarrassed to even utter the word "awesome."

But neither of them wants to admit it, so they can only...

[That's incredibly detailed; this is true mastery. I'm impressed.]

People who truly master minion waves are incredibly skilled.

[So this is all the big boss is made of? He should try winning his third championship this year to prove himself.]

This guy is ranked third in the Korean server, and his form seems to be getting better and better. If he starts in the Summer Split, can LGD be saved?

[Still not as good as GodV.]

End of video.

"As you all know, I've joined LGD as their head coach, and Knight has been with me for half a year now. He's like my idol, so please give him your support..."

EDG Club.

Abu, Maokai, and Mingkai watched the video.

"How could such a promising talent end up in LGD, a graveyard?"

"There's no other way; they trained me, so of course I have to stick with them."

Abu felt it was a pity, but Mingkai didn't care.

EDG is lacking a top laner... no, they're lacking a top laner but not a mid laner.

Currently, the team is protected by General Pawn in retreat and boasts rising star Scout in attack.

Is he really not as good as LGD's mere kid?

The only issues are that Pawn's back injury is getting worse and Scout still lacks game experience.

But Mingkai also has his own pride. He can back you up. He's never been afraid of anyone in the LPL league.

"Forget about the other teams, let's play well in the Summer Split and show everyone who the true league champion is."

His goal is simple: win the championship without losing a single game!

Speaking of rivals, I only have RNG and WE in mind, and LGD is also a contender given their recent activity.

As for the World Championships to come, we must avenge our defeat and break the quarterfinals curse!
