Chapter 193: There are geniuses everywhere, but also dead bones everywhere!

"So strong, yet so weak?" Zhang Jiale shook his head in confusion. "Captain Yu, you've got me a little confused."

Yu Wenzhou obviously also realized that what he said was a bit strange: "It's hard to explain over the phone, how about you come over?"

"Row."

This is the benefit of bringing all the clubs together in Shanghai.

In the past, the flowers were in Spring City and the blue rain was in Guangzhou, thousands of miles apart.

If Zhang Jiale wanted to go to Blue Rain for some fun, the airfare alone would cost four figures.

And now, I don’t know if it’s due to inertia, but at least four or five clubs have chosen to build their bases on Lingshi Road.

Zhang Jiale wanted to find Yu Wenzhou, which was only a few minutes’ walk away.

Over at Blue Rain, in the conference room.

Yu Wenzhou sorted out the documents for a while, and when he heard a noise at the door, he asked without turning his head: "Are you here?"

"We're here!" X5
Yu Wenzhou was stunned, and then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It would be fine if only one person came, why did everyone come here?"

"Our daily habit is to discuss all tactics and routines together." The five people of Fanhua came in one after another and sat down in familiar seats.

Sun Zheping scratched his head and answered in an unjustified manner.

"To be honest, maybe you really need to find a good coach. Always letting Zhang Wei be a handshake tool is not a long-term solution." Yu Wenzhou sighed.

Otherwise, why do people say that the Fanhua team is very weird?

A normal team, in addition to the starting five, usually has at least one coach and one substitute, and will have a higher exposure.

For example, Xingxin’s coach Mingkai replaced Yu Wenbo in the bottom lane.

As well as Blue Rain coach Fang Shijing and mid lane substitute Li Yuan.

But our new champion Fanhua is a bit weird in this regard.

Their coach and substitute are the same person - the former mage scholar of the Baihua team, Zhang Wei.

From this name that sounds insignificant, we can tell that Zhang Wei is a complete tool.

As a mage scholar, Wang Jiexi has the most impressive playing style in the entire league and the only title that belongs exclusively to a player.

As for Zhang Wei... well, apart from his relatively long experience, there is nothing impressive about him.

The reason why he became Fanhua's substitute and coach was simply because the competition was about to start and Fanhua, a semi-protocol team, still lacked the personnel reserves for these two positions.

Zhang Jiale was a man who cherished old times, so he simply turned around and asked Baihua if she was willing to get involved.

At that time, Baihua was worried that there would be nothing to do as the competition was not held, so they hurriedly sent a group of training teams over.

When I learned that Fanhua had not found a replacement.

The league just happened to be undergoing a massive layoff, and Baihua was worried about how to find a future for Zhang Wei, a veteran who made his debut in the third season.

Immediately made up for it on Fanhua's side.

Fanhua was too lazy to find a coach at that time. Anyway, the guys discussed all the tactics among themselves, so it didn't matter if the coach didn't want one.

So Zhang Wei, who was originally a substitute, was given the job of handshake helper.

Thus, this veteran who had only played a few games as a substitute and was basically a mascot for the coach, accidentally followed the five big gangsters of Fanhua and became the first championship coach in the history of LPL.

Well, this coach's unique coaching secret is -

"Brother Le, Brother Ping, what should we choose this time?"

In fact, this time when all the Fanhua people came to Blue Rain to learn from them, even Mo Fan, who usually never expressed his opinions, came, but Zhang Wei did not come.

He himself is very open-minded. He does whatever the old captains ask him to do and is content with doing his job as a tool honestly.

Not to mention winning a championship.

Whenever Yu Wenzhou thought about the team that defeated his own Blue Rain team 3-0 and the fact that the coach and substitutes were at such a low level, he couldn't help but get a headache.

Shameful...

"We are looking for them. It will be quick." Sun Zheping laughed and then asked, "Let's not talk about this for now. Let's quickly show us what the teams from foreign regions are like?"

Although he complained, Yu Wenzhou also knew that personnel reinforcement was Fanhua's private matter, so he stopped talking and started to retrieve the information.

"Logically, we should start with the strongest LCS and LEC. After all, they represent the White Eagles and the European continent, and it can be said that they are basically guaranteed to reach the top four."

"But after my personal research, it's South Korea's LCK region that gives me a headache." Yu Wenzhou clicked on the information he had compiled about South Korea's region.

After hearing what he said, the people in Fanhua, who were already itching to try it, could no longer hold back and sat up straight.

"The LCK division has now reached the finals. Tomorrow, KT and SKT will compete for the final championship."

As he operated, the logos and brief introductions of the two teams appeared on the projection screen.

"SK Telecom T1...Korea Telecom...It doesn't sound like the name of a club, but rather like a big company!" commented Sun Zheping.

"That's right. Compared to us, although we have sponsorship from manufacturers, most of the clubs are still relatively independent. In South Korea, basically the stronger teams are controlled by big chaebols." Yu Wenzhou nodded.

"For example, the two teams this time are affiliated with the two largest telecommunications companies in South Korea."

Zhang Jiale was amazed: "A big financial group is here to provide protection... Interesting."

Yu Wenzhou then retrieved the data

"Although the finals haven't started yet, everything is possible."

"But I personally am more optimistic about SKT. They have a huge advantage in the middle lane. They are definitely a rare talent." When talking about this, Yu Wenzhou's eyes were full of surprise.

This sentence immediately aroused the curiosity of everyone in Fanhua.

As the captain of Blue Rain, a club with the strongest youth training, he has seen countless talents of all kinds.

Just looking at those who came out of Blue Rain’s youth training camp, Huang Shaotian, Fang Rui, Yu Feng, and Lu Hanwen who has now returned to school and is preparing for the S3 season, which one of them is not a brilliant talent?
What kind of genius is that South Korean center fielder who could make Yu Wenzhou lose his composure like this?
At this time, Yu Wenzhou also called up a picture.

A full-length photo of a young and handsome South Korean man wearing a red team uniform and without glasses, appeared on the screen.

"SKT mid laner, Faker, real name Lee Sang-hyuk, seventeen years old..." Zhang Jiale read on according to the introduction on the picture.

“最近几场，瑞兹9/0/4，璐璐7/0/7，卡萨丁3/1/12，输出占比27%，KDA7.3？好像确实有点猛啊！这年轻人！”

As he read on, just by looking at the data, Zhang Jiale began to understand why Yu Wenzhou attached so much importance to this small-school midfielder from a good country.

At least in terms of data, Lee Sang-hyuk's performance is indeed quite outstanding.

Yu Wenzhou opened another clip of Faker's kills.

The damage of Leblanc was like that in a horror game, and she got a pentakill smoothly.

Olaf, who was selected for the first time, was unstoppable from the lane to the jungle.

and also……

"Oh my god, Ryze?" Xiye exclaimed, "Can this thing be played like this?"

Due to version reasons, the version of Ryze in Full-time World that was just released was a reworked one, that is, the type that casts spell machine guns.

Since cooldown reduction requires stacking passives, and the Q skill is no longer a targeted skill, this version of Ryze is relatively difficult to use. The player base is also small.

His presence in the professional arena is not very high.

In the playoff version, on the LPL side, since almost everyone's attention is focused on the top lane, the hero ecology of the mid lane has not been significantly revised.

Ryze is still almost out of the professional arena.

But looking at the Ryze in the hands of the Korean boy in front of me...

"Infinite standing? Is this thing really that powerful after it's completed?"

Xiye looked at the screen and saw that Faker's Ryze was firing spells like a machine gun with almost no interruption, forcing his opponent to stand still and die. He felt terrible.

What kind of unstoppable and incredible fighting power is this?

The LPL has been playing the playoffs for such a long time, and no one has brought this thing into the game?

"Yes, an unstoppable level of combat power." There was a look of fear in Yu Wenzhou's eyes.

He carefully checked the playoffs of almost all regions in the world, and found that there was only one person who could pull out Ryze, Faker.

A 17-year-old boy could actually come up with such a high-intensity routine by himself, so his creativity can be imagined. Before this research, Yu Wenzhou actually had a little bit of pride.

Since there was no world championship during the Glory era, and e-sports was not very popular, data between e-sports leagues in different countries was basically not interoperable.

Most people, including Yu Wenzhou, actually know very little about the development of foreign leagues.

Until now, Tenghai is going to hold the Mid-Season Championship and the S League, and Yu Wenzhou waited until Blue Rain was eliminated before he took up researching foreign leagues as a pastime.

The champion Fanhua team has not yet focused on this matter.

In the eyes of these people, China has been involved in e-sports for several years, and during this period, the major clubs have developed quite maturely.

The current League of Legends is completely developed and operated by Chinese people.

It’s not too much to say that China holds a leading position in the world, right?
It was not until Faker's outstanding performance was presented to them that these e-sports veterans realized something belatedly:

E-sports is not just a one-man show in China.

"This young man is very strong." Zhang Jiale turned to Xiye with a serious expression, "What do you think?"

"He is indeed strong. His operation, awareness, and reaction are all terrifyingly strong." Xiye nodded, and then changed the subject, "But I am definitely not bad either!"

He is also a talented teenager of about 17 or 18 years old. He can even beat top mid laners like Ye Xiu and Chu Yunxiu. So why would he be afraid of the fledgling Faker?

Xiye, who just won the championship, is confident that he can compete with this foreign genius!
"Good! You have great ambition!" Sun Zheping smiled appreciatively and asked Yu Wenzhou, "Although I admit that this mid laner is indeed amazing, he is just one person and cannot represent the entire region."

"Of course." Yu Wenzhou nodded and called up several pictures in succession.

“In fact, in addition to Faker, I found many surprises during my research on LCK.”

More than a dozen resumes made by Yu Wenzhou were lined up, each representing a young person who had left a deep impression on him.

Faker's bottom lane partner, possibly the strongest AD in the LCK Spring Split, SKT.Deft's Kim Hyuk-kyu.

Deft’s arch-rival, the round-faced boy who competes with Deft for the strongest AD position, KT.IMP’s Gu Sung-bin.

The talented mid laner of the SSG team who was eliminated in the semi-finals was unfortunately defeated by SSG.Pawn Xu Yuanshuo played by Faker.

And so on and so forth.

Looking at these young people with different looks and temperaments, but each one more spirited than the other, the old men in Fanhua also restrained their frivolous laughter and frolicking at the beginning.

"So there is such a group of talented young people...but ours are not bad either!" Zhang Jiale concluded with a smile.

Although he was surprised that a country as small as South Korea has so many new e-sports stars, Zhang Jiale is also confident in his young people.

We are all young men full of vigor and vitality. Who is afraid of whom?

You won’t know until you fight it.

Sun Zheping was obviously concerned about more than that. He asked curiously, "In that case, the Baseball National Division should be promising in the future."

"Why do you say they are ridiculously weak in certain areas?"

"Good question!" Yu Wenzhou smiled and suddenly asked back: "How can we roughly categorize the current players in our LPL?"

"...If we have to divide them, it should be mainly us players who transferred from the Glory League, and the young people who rose to prominence during the League of Legends era. These two parts!"

"That's right," Yu Wenzhou affirmed, "In our region, both the older generation and the younger generation have their own highlights and moments."

"Take Happy for example. The two veterans, Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng, are their most stable bottom-line support points, while youngsters like Tang Rou, Wen Bo, and Baozi have further raised Happy's top-line!"

"The same is true for several other teams, including you and me."

Yu Wenzhou said this, and suddenly changed the subject: "But LCK is different."

He clicked on another folder and a player's profile appeared.

"His ID is IPX, Park Jae-yoon? He was one of the top five 'Honzo'-level players in the former Baseball League, known as the country's number one boxer, and later switched to being a top laner and playing for SKT?" Zhang Jiale exclaimed in amazement.

"Isn't this the Korean version of Han Wenqing?"

"Don't do that. If Captain Han knew that you compared him to this guy, he would be so low that he would break up with Fanhua." Yu Wenzhou smiled contemptuously, which was rare for him. "Keep watching."

Turning to the next page, not only he, but everyone in Fanhua also smiled.

“No, with this kind of record, if there’s no chance of survival, then don’t force yourself to pick it, right?” Sun Zheping, also a top laner, was the first to comment.

The second page records Park Jae-yoon’s recent battle record.

During the playoffs, Park naturally started to use the likes of Fiora, Riven, and Noxus.

Looking at the win rate, it seems reasonable thanks to SKT's rapid progress.

But let’s look at the specific data.

“1/6/9的剑姬伤害占比14%，承伤占比反而有29%？这是把剑姬当坦克玩了吧？”孙哲平毫不留情地嘲笑。

"And this one, Riven, 0/4/4, I don't know how she won."

"This Noxus is a bit better, but that's all. It's far worse than Lao Zhao's Noxus..."

Park's data is acceptable when he plays the likes of Noxus and Crocodile, but when he plays Fiora and Riven, his data goes towards developing chips.

什么1/5，1/6，0/3，0/4之类的下饭战绩，比比皆是。

“This guy is not very adaptable to the version. I guess he was chosen reluctantly. But even if he adapts to the version, he probably won’t be that strong.” Sun Zheping concluded with a contemptuous smile.

The highest evaluation he could give to this so-called "strong man" was a bankrupt version of Zhao Yang.

"Well, what if I tell you that this Park Benzuo has won more MVPs than their middle and lower-level talented teenagers combined?" Yu Wenzhou dropped another bombshell.

"What? Him? And he got the MVP? Does he deserve it?" Everyone in Fanhua was dumbfounded.

In their opinion, if Park Jae-yoon's performance were to be put in the LPL, he probably wouldn't even be able to get a top lane spot in the playoffs.

Song Xiao, Lou Guanning and Lin Yi, which one can he defeat?
"But that's the fact." Yu Wenzhou showed a post-match report.

In the LCK Spring Split top six match, SKT faced NS. In the third game, SKT won and the MVP was given to SKT top laner IPX Park Jae-yoon.

In this round, Park Ben's Noxus performed quite well, with total data of 4/2/4, and the damage taken accounted for more than 30%, which is acceptable.

But the problem is, in this game, SKT's mid and bottom duo had a 5-0 and 6-0 respectively, with extremely gorgeous statistics.

You don't deserve an MVP?

"Did the top laner have some magical performance that raised his rating?" Zhang Jiale guessed.

"Not really." Yu Wenzhou said sarcastically, "His performance was very mediocre throughout the whole process, but he still won the MVP, and there was no suspense."

"In fact, it's not just him. I investigated the awarding of honors throughout the LCK. Almost eight out of ten small-game MVPs like this were given to veteran players like Park Jae-yoon."

"Only when the performance of the veteran players is really bad and there is no highlight at all, will we consider giving it to the young players."

Zhang Jiale was dumbfounded: "Is it so exaggerated?"

Throughout the entire spring season, the MVP awards for Fanhua were basically the same. Zhang Jiale and Sun Zheping had slightly more, but also limited.

No matter which position you are in, you will have your own highlight moments.

The logic of awarding LCK's MVP made him feel a little far-fetched.

"Yes, it's too exaggerated. And there are even more exaggerated ones." Yu Wenzhou started playing another interview.

The person being interviewed was a young Asian man with small eyes and dark skin, but he spoke fluent English during the interview.

Considering the cultural papermaking of the people present, Yu Wenzhou directly explained the content of the interview to them:
"This guy is Zheng Yanyong, a top laner from South Korea. He was originally a substitute for SKT, but now he has traveled across the ocean to White Eagle to play for the C9 team, which has a military background."

"Given the current competitiveness of him and the C9 team, they are likely to become our opponents at MSI."

"He was interviewed by White Eagle Media and exposed the various evil deeds of SKT and Park Jae-yoon who bullied, chilled and abandoned him during the training camp."

"Park Jae-yoon, in particular, often used his status as a senior to force Jung Yeon-young to do this and that for him. If he didn't do what he wanted, he would fly into a rage and even hit him."

"Zheng Yanyong refused to tolerate the humiliation, so he chose to leave LCK and come to a new league to look for opportunities."

"So far, it seems that he has succeeded."

Everyone in Fanhua was a little stunned at this time:
A championship-level top laner was bullied and even driven away by a useless top laner?
These people in South Korea...don't they value talents at all?
