Happy times are always short-lived.

Not long after, the atmosphere in the EDG team became serious again. The players changed from their usual relaxed and lazy attitude and were training extremely seriously in their seats.

EDG training room.

Abramovich pushed the door open and said: "Our final against RNG is about to begin, and this is also the last game in the league.

As long as we beat RNG, we can win the Summer Split and get the No. 1 seed."

Everyone present already knew about the schedule, but hearing it from Abu's mouth made the team members feel a little sense of urgency in their hearts.

After all, having come this far, no one wants to miss out on the championship.

"Based on our many experiences with RNG, we have a very high chance of winning." Nofe said: "RNG has strong hard power, but like us, its tactics are concentrated in the lower half.

Therefore, when playing against RNG, we don't have to think too much about the opponent's tactical arrangement.

As long as we can contain the performance of the opponent's bottom shooter, it will be easy to win the game."

After analysis, the coaching staff has always been optimistic about the final.

Because the playing styles of EDG and RNG are so similar. They both focus on the bottom lane to drive the rhythm and win the game.

In several encounters, EDG had the upper hand in the bottom lane... This kind of suppression by core players undoubtedly gave everyone a shot in the arm.

To put it simply, EDG's current team style is quite restrained against RNG.

Even if you can choose one of the three teams of WE, IG and RNG as your opponent, EDG will most likely choose RNG.

After hearing the analysis from the coaching staff, EDG couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although pre-match analysis cannot be confused with reality, it still has reference significance and can at least provide some psychological comfort.

Mouse smiled and said: "If you put it that way, wouldn't we win casually?"

"Don't be careless." The factory director was still mature and prudent: "RNG still has the strength. We have been winning for so long, and we must not let the chain slip at the last moment."

Everyone was shocked.

Indeed, as the factory director said, they have been winning for so long, and it would be a pity if they missed the championship in the finals.

Leaving aside the external fishing boats...even they themselves can't accept it.

At this time, Zoom said: "But I believe we can't lose in the bottom lane."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of everyone present moved to the position of Ye Zi and Meiquan.

Abu also asked: "Yi Zi, Sister Kou, what do you think of the bottom lane? Are you confident that you can suppress RNG's bottom lane?"

It's not that Abramovich doesn't trust the bottom duo, but the line between strength and weakness among top players is actually very blurry because there are too many factors that affect strength.

State, mood, feel... no matter what the reason is, it can affect the player's performance.

In the past few times, Yezi was in good form and kept playing under Uzi, but before the game started, it was difficult to determine the state of both sides.

That's why Abramovich asked this question and wanted to know about the players' situation from the players themselves.

Hearing this, Ye Zi and Mei Kou looked at each other and said with a smile: "They have no chance."

Upon hearing this answer, Abu and Nofe immediately felt their hearts in their stomachs.

Neither Yezi nor Meikou are the kind of people who like to talk big. Now that they say this, there must be no problem with their condition.

Thinking of this, Abramovich quietly improved EDG's chances of winning.

After explaining, Abramovich did not disturb the team members' training again.

However, before leaving, Abramovich still warned: "There are only a few days until the finals. I hope everyone will not relax..."

Having said this, Abramovich suddenly thought of something else and said: "Tomorrow is the bubbling competition qualifying match between IG and WE. Let's take a look at it together."

Now the situation of the LPL has basically been determined. EDG and RNG are competing for the championship and who is the first and second seed, while IG and WE are playing the last bo5 game to compete for the qualification of the bubble competition.

Whoever can win the bo5 can participate in the bubble match and strive for the third place in the world championship.

Therefore, IG and WE will definitely use their full strength to play the game tomorrow.

Under normal circumstances, each major team will pay attention to the game, learn from the strengths of the two teams, and at the same time conduct in-depth research on team style, common tactics, hero pool and other aspects of data.

At that time, when you meet the other party, there will be more data for reference.

After saying that, Abu and Nofe left hand in hand.

Seeing the two people leaving, Ye Zi couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Unconsciously, it has been almost a year since I came to EDG.

In this year, he himself has changed greatly.

From the initial indifferent attitude towards his career to now becoming the mainstay of the team, his mentality has been changing quietly.

At this time, Yates can no longer play games without any burden as he did at the beginning.

Because, EDG needs him, and his teammates also need him... Every operation and every decision he makes will affect the team.

He is really afraid that one day the team will lose the game because of his personal mistakes.

When he thought of that outcome, Ye Zi felt as if his heart was being pressed down by a huge boulder, extremely heavy.

It’s no problem if you lose in the summer split, but what about the World Championship? Group stage, quarter-finals, semi-finals, finals...

In so many games, can he really guarantee that he will not make a single mistake?

Mentality is often the hardest thing to maintain.

Even though Yezi was a human being, he still inevitably encountered this kind of psychological dilemma.

In other words, this is a process that every professional player must go through.

After walking out of the training room, Yezi came to the window and looked out the window.

"What are you thinking about?"

Behind him, the factory director's voice came.

"No..." Ye Zi didn't look back: "I just wanted to come out and take a look."

The factory director came to Yezi's side and looked out the window as well.

"Yi Zi, your expression has betrayed you."

"Is it so obvious?" The corner of Ye Zi's mouth twitched: "Besides, you have been peeping at me, so you have a crush on me, right?"

"Go away! My girlfriend is a college student, a college student, do you understand?"

After saying that, both the factory director and Ye Zi laughed.

It is no secret that the factory director has a girlfriend in EDG, and even the outside world knows it. However, unlike other wives groups, the factory director's girlfriend has always kept a low profile.

After a moment, the director's smile gradually disappeared and he said in a deep voice: "Yi Zi, I know you are under a lot of pressure right now."

Ye Zi shook his head and was about to say something, but the factory director did not give him a chance to speak and continued: "As a newcomer, you have done a good enough job.

But this is the situation with EDG. Being the C position in EDG is doomed to bear greater pressure.

I'm sorry, but there's not much I can do for you."

Having said this, the factory director couldn't help but feel bitter emotions in his heart. No one knew his current situation better than him.

Compared with his peak period, he is now a second-rate jungler. If it were not for his rich game experience, the team still needs him to command, and the unwillingness to give up on his dream in his heart, he would not even choose to continue playing, but would instead

Opportunities are left to newcomers.

But now EDG...he can't let go yet.

"Qi-chan..." Ye Zi sighed: "I'm just afraid that I won't be able to play well. If I lose the game because of me... ugh."

The longer the winning streak, the more afraid of losing.

However, victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. How can a team win forever?

The factory director could completely understand Ye Zi's mood, because he had the same emotions as Ye Zi back then.

"leaf."

"Huh?" Ye Zi turned to look at the factory director, slightly startled.

The factory director smiled like an old father, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead and fight, I, Meike and everyone in EDG will stand behind you.

As long as you try your best not to have any regrets, what does it matter if you lose?

In other words, if you already know the outcome of something before you do it, then what’s the fun in e-sports?”

Ye Zi's spirit was shaken, and he felt a sudden sense of enlightenment.

Yes, there is no eternal victorious general, only constant self-improvement. This is an extremely classic saying in the field of e-sports.

At this moment, he found that he had a deeper understanding of this passage.

There are so many teams and players, but there is only one champion. Even if he is as strong as Uzi, he has not won a championship in six years. If he is as strong as Rookie, he can only stay at IG as the president.

As a newcomer, he made it to the World Championship in his first year. How lucky is he?

It would be gratifying to win the championship, but if you think about it from another angle, isn’t the process of chasing the championship a life experience?
