Chapter 361: Blue Rain’s current situation, Glory service suspension notice?

"Brother Ye, I have training today...Brother Ye?"

Yu Wenbo swaggered into the training room.

In order to let Baozi gradually get used to the new style, Xingxin basically let Su Mucheng start since the playoffs, so Shuizi's role naturally became less.

But now he is just the one with more potential among the "young LPL players", and he may not even win the best rookie award.
It's not to the point of being dissatisfied or anything like that.

Anyway, Xingxin won't lose his salary, so it's no big deal to have some free time.

However, recently, Yu Wenbo has become a little busier, and the frequency of training matches has gradually increased.

The reason is very simple, because they can't beat Blue Rain.

After Xingxin advanced from the semi-finals, Blue Rain easily defeated Xuanqi 3-0 and also advanced to the winner's group final.

Li Hua is already a very strong jungler, a small hexagonal warrior who is impeccable in all aspects. He can compete for the top three junglers in the entire LPL.

But who asked Huang Shaotian to play against him?
Huang Shaotian has not been discussed much in the summer season.

Other junglers have all performed very well in the jungle core version, openly taking advantage of the economy and grabbing the highlights, with famous scenes one after another.

But Blue Rain and Huang Shaotian seemed to be going against the version and did not tilt the tactics too much towards Huang Shaotian at the beginning.

At first, people thought that this was Blue Rain continuing their original tradition.

The tactics of the Blue Rain team are quite strange.

Whether in the Glory period or the League of Legends period, Huang Shaotian, the undisputed number one in terms of pure strength in the Blue Rain team, was actually unable to integrate into Blue Rain's regular tactics.

Blue Rain's tactics can basically be summed up as follows: the others execute the tactics with Yu Wenzhou as the core, and then Huang Shaotian looks for opportunities to cause trouble.

It is precisely because of this tactic that Huang Shaotian was given the title of "opportunist".
This is the choice that Blue Rain made after fully analyzing the two core players, Yu Wenzhou and Huang Shaotian, and it best suits their style.

Such tactics meant that Huang Shaotian was destined to be able to raise Blue Rain's upper limit, but could not maintain Blue Rain's lower limit.

If the opponent is able to penetrate Blue Rain from the front before Huang Shaotian finds an opportunity, then Huang Shaotian will be left helpless.

But if the hole cannot be penetrated, giving Huang Shaotian room to act freely, the consequences will be extremely terrible.

Huang Shaotian is a bit like an old 1.5 player next door. In a team with a complete system like GSW, he is an unstoppable killer, but once he goes to a team without a complete system, he will struggle a lot.

(Come to think of it, Huang Shaotian's style is quite similar to Du Xiaoshuai's, in many aspects.)
This may, to a certain extent, explain the ups and downs of Blue Rain's performance in recent years.

In the early years, when there were only Yu Wenzhou and Huang Shaotian, Blue Rain's performance had been neither good nor bad. It wasn't bad, but it was basically out of the question for the championship.

But when the top-level Berserker Yu Feng, who was able to stand up to Huang Shaotian together with Yu Wenzhou, made his debut in the sixth season, Blue Rain directly defeated the powerful Tiny Herb and won the championship that season.

Since then, it has maintained the championship-contending strength of a top-class club.

When coming to LPL, although Yu Feng did not come, a strong man named Chu Yunxiu was added, who is even better at maintaining the bottom line than Yu Feng and can lead the Yanyu team with a lot of problems to the semi-finals.

Therefore, Blue Rain's system could continue to play comfortably.

But being able to establish this system does not mean that Blue Rain will be content to rely on this system for the rest of its life.

In fact, not long after coming to LPL, Blue Rain's training team was studying how to make slight changes to Blue Rain's style.

What prompted them to come up with this idea was the final match in which they lost to Samsara.

Although the final kill of Blue Rain was still launched by Yu Wenzhou, Blue Rain's entire strategy was indeed centered around Huang Shaotian.

And Huang Shaotian did not disappoint their expectations. Even though his strength on paper and his account data were half a step behind Samsara, he still created an opportunity for Yu Wenzhou to use his ultimate move to kill the opponent.

Although in the end I lost due to skill points.

Sometimes, a slight mistake can leave a greater impression in people's minds than success.

After that final, everyone who participated in the formulation of Blue Rain's tactics at the time, including Yu Wenzhou, naturally couldn't sleep.

In addition to being unhappy with Samsara's victory through skill points and wanting to have an unexpected incident with Samsara, when they stayed up all night, they couldn't help but think about one question:
If we were able to integrate Huang Shaotian into Blue Rain's tactical system earlier and adopt a true dual-core style of play, would we have a chance to overthrow Samsara with the advantage of skill points?
Although there is no "if" in the world, it does not stop Lan Yu from thinking about this matter.

Especially after coming to LPL.

Yu Wenzhou is a support, Chu Yunxiu's ability to raise the upper limit is a little bit lacking, and the two young men above and below are a little bit immature.

From this perspective, the person most suitable to be the absolute core of Blue Rain is Huang Shaotian, who has always been on the tactical edge.

When the jungler's weight increased in the summer season, Blue Rain immediately began to study tactics with Huang Shaotian as the absolute core.

But as a team born in Glory, they always like to keep their tactics hidden and use them to surprise everyone at the crucial moment.

So when Zhang Yiwei came to Blue Rain with the Xuanqi team, which he considered to be "the most suitable five players for the current version",
The one who didn't even mourn for Fanhua who was overturned by Xingxin's car, and immediately rushed to the battlefield to fight Xuanqi was——

LPL’s new concept god: the absolute core Huang Shaotian.

The entire game could only be described as cruel, and even the final score of 3:0 seemed a little bland.

When Li Hua, the key to victory, was pinned down by Huang Shaotian and could not move, what awaited Xuanqi was the fate of being crushed by Blue Rain.

After this game, the media who were previously confused suddenly had clear eyes.

In that battle that turned the King's Mountain into the foot of the King's Mountain, although Xingxin did create a miracle and overturned the champion Fanhua,
But the prediction of the champion is becoming more and more confusing.

Speaking of Fanhua, after all, they were carried to the loser group by Xingxin, so they were facing a bit of headwind at this time.

But let's praise Xingxin, their performance in the past few games was really awesome, the upper limit is indeed high, but the lower limit is also extremely low.

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a champion...

Now, there is finally someone I can talk to with confidence.

Blue Rain's performance in the summer season was very stable, but there were not many highlights. In fact, because they deliberately hid their tactics, Huang Shaotian did not have many opportunities to show up.

As for the meal scenes, there are even fewer, and the main focus is on steady and cautious play.

As a result, it received slightly less attention than the soaring Fanhua and the chaotic Xingxin.

But it's okay now.

Judging from Blue Rain's current state, especially Huang Shaotian's state at this point, it feels like we can already shout that Blue Rain is the champion.

However, at this time, the self-media were still relatively cautious when praising Blue Rain.

Because they were really driven into ptsd by Xingxin.

Being able to drag down Fanhua, who was leading the entire league in the regular season, no one dares to predict what kind of trouble they can come up with.

The nerve knife is always the most intimidating thing before it is unsheathed. But in the following victory, Blue Rain told the entire alliance lightly that they were overthinking it.

Baozi's style can defeat Mo Fan to some extent, but it can never defeat Huang Shaotian.

In fact, the more random ideas he came up with, the more ruthless Huang Shaotian became.

Huang Shaotian’s specialty is to find opportunities by improvising in the chaos of battle.

Facing Baozi's live tactics, Blue Rain decisively resorted to their traditional style of play, stabilizing the front and allowing Huang Shaotian to play freely.

Then they easily beat Xingxin 3 to 1.

After four games, Huang Shaotian was completely suppressed by Baozi in terms of rhythm, development and team battle performance, leaving him with no chance at all.

If it wasn't for the third game, big brother Ye Xiu and Tang Rou, who had been silent for a long time, would have fought desperately and broke through two lanes in one go under pressure.

Especially in the top lane, Tang Rou, who had been a blue-collar worker for the entire regular season, finally broke out in that game, took out a Gangplank and beat Li Xuanjun to 0-6, thus winning back a game.

But it was only possible to win back one game.

Just when Xingxin thought they could copy the homework of Fanhua in the spring season and make a fuss about Li Xuanjun who was not so stable in his mentality,
Lan Yu carried Li Xuanjun down, and 957 came up.

Brother Tui is actually slightly weaker than Xiaoqiang in terms of operation, reaction and pure strength, but he is stable enough and can withstand pressure enough.

If he chose a big tree to stand there, Tang Rou could prevent him from leaving the tower, but she couldn't break his mentality or stop him from staying in the lane.

And this is more than enough for Blue Rain.

After being defeated by Blue Rain 1:3, Xingxin naturally reflected and rethought.

Although Fanhua, who was filled with anger due to Xingxin's pranks, tore Xuanqi alive, was the opponent Xingxin was going to face next.

But during those few days, outside of training, everyone in Happy subconsciously identified Blue Rain as the most formidable enemy that needed to be challenged.

Mingkai and Ye Xiu discussed this for a whole night, and finally came to an extremely risky conclusion:

Above is Yu Wenbo.

The game they won against Blue Rain gave Happy the biggest revelation: if they wanted to fight for a chance of survival from Blue Rain, there were only two ways.

Either find a way to beat them online before Huang Shaotian disrupts the rhythm, or create a miracle in a team fight.

Ye Xiu and Tang Rou both have this ability, but it is not enough.

957 and Chu Yunxiu are both top-notch players in terms of withstanding pressure and maintaining their bottom line. It is not so easy to defeat them.

Therefore, the final breakthrough point is only the bottom lane.

Su Mucheng is good in every way, but her style also tends to maintain the lower limit rather than raise the upper limit.

So, after a lot of twists and turns, Xingxin’s hope actually fell back on the fledgling Yu Wenbo.

Although this guy is immature, prone to sudden death, likes to show off and likes to catch Q, he is really an AD who can raise the upper limit of the team.

Therefore, after being defeated by Blue Rain, Xingxin started to study again how to organize the tactics when Baozi and Yu Wenbo are on the field at the same time.

Actually, this is indeed a lineup that would scare anyone who sees it.

Tang Rou, Baozi who has a liberated style of play, Shuizi who has a tactical position, plus Ye Xiu, the legendary old Deng who you never know where his ceiling is.

Don’t worry about how low the lower limit is, just tell me whether the theoretical upper limit is high or not?
Yu Wenbo himself was also very excited about the opportunity to perform in the subsequent competitions.

Especially when he learned that he might have to shoulder a heavy responsibility in the match against Blue Rain.

The reason why Yu Wenbo did not choose to play League of Legends with Yu Wenzhou, but came to Happy to hang out with Ye Xiu, was because he did not want to be overshadowed by his brother.

If Happy and Blue Rain ever meet again, it will definitely be in the finals.

If he could defeat his brother and win the championship there, then the value would be…

Maybe in the future he will no longer be "Yu Wenzhou's younger brother", but Yu Wenzhou will be "Jack's beloved brother".

Therefore, Shuizi's enthusiasm for training during this period was quite high, and he was often the first one to arrive in the training room for training.

But today, when he walked into the training room, he felt that the atmosphere in the training room was a little different.

The usually calm and composed captain Ye Xiu, the ever-smiling elder sister Su Mucheng, the ever-warming and warm-hearted coach Ming Kai, good brother Qiao Yifan and the others were all staring at their phones in a daze.

Yu Wenbo read extremely complex emotions on their faces.

Feelings of regret, sadness, and even a little vicissitudes.

"Wenbo is here? Wait a moment. There will be a training match with Yizhan in about an hour. You can play ranked first to get a feel for it."

Seeing Yu Wenbo come in, Ye Xiu casually introduced today's arrangements, his tone revealing some absent-mindedness.

"Brother Ye...did something happen?" Yu Wenbo looked around and asked cautiously.

"…It's nothing. Some things that were almost confirmed have finally come to an end."

Ye Xiu was silent for a while and sighed. Although his tone was light, it was full of complex emotions.

Yu Wenbo was stunned and became even more uneasy.

He hurriedly came to Qiao Yifan, who also sighed and raised his phone to show him.

The moment he saw the above content, Yu Wenbo's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip.

Announcement of the suspension of service of Honor:
Dear players, since the large-scale MMORPG game "Glory" was launched on X month X day, 2012, it has been more than ten years and has received the support and love of countless players. We have experienced countless happy times together.

However, all good things must come to an end. Due to factors such as revenue and operator changes, we must announce a regrettable news to players around the world:

All twelve servers of "Glory" will officially stop operating after November X, 2024...

……

There was a lot of sentimental words and phrases at the end, but Yu Wenbo was no longer in the mood to read on.

At this moment, he felt that the blood in his body had stopped flowing and his breathing had stagnated.

Glory, this legendary game that carries all the passion, sweat and honor that my brother and Boss Ye put in their early careers, is it really coming to an end?
Ye Xiu sighed quietly, as if trying to convince himself:
"There is no eternal dynasty in this world..."
