The next day, a report titled "A Strong Heart" was reposted crazily on Twitter, attracting the attention of the eSports community.
The first half of the report not only described the entire process of SKT's comeback against DWG, but also the second half of the report was about the China player, Li Xu. From Li Xu's experience in Korea, to his failure to train in the CK Pro League, to SKT's four appearances, and finally what Li Xu said in an interview. "I've never given up, because I've always given it my all. I want to win all the matches!"
There was a large picture in the middle of the article. It was not the scene of Lord Sven wreaking havoc on the battlefield, nor was it the scene of Nolan's Pentakill.
Instead, it was the scene of Li Xu, expressionless, sitting quietly on the bench. Two extreme fans of SKT were roaring madly at Li Xu from behind. Their faces were twisted, and they were waving the insulting electronic boards in their hands. The picture was frozen at this moment.
The article said, "The sharpest knife in the world is time, and the most poisonous knife is the human heart. When countless people's hearts are twisted, and they hate a person because of a different bloodline and a different language, this is the regression of civilization, and this should make us feel humiliated."
At the end of the article, the author praised, "In the face of unprovoked attacks and abuse, Li Xu's performance was calm, indifferent, and even vicious. However, there was no trace of weakness. He proved himself in the competition. No matter what happens in the future, please remember him. Li Xu, this Chinese player, he has a strong heart."
Li Xu stared blankly at the article. 'I don't know this author! Could it be a gunner hired by the club? '
The first person to reply was AFS's top laner, Kiin. "Li Xu's performance is worthy of any praise. As long as you continue to perform as usual, no one will be able to blame you. By the way, you played well with the nukes."
Kiin had once played the hero of Nolan in the Asian Games, and his performance was outstanding.
The second to reply was First Senior Brother Doublelift. "Extreme anti-fans don't deserve to be fans. They don't look at performance and only criticize people. These people are all idiots. Their brains are made of walnuts."
First Senior Brother's words were as sharp as ever. After all, he was a veteran player in the North American region. Racist incidents were common in the North American region, and First Senior Brother was once a victim of racist incidents. Of course, First Senior Brother would not be at a disadvantage in words, and he had a way with words.
Although Eldest Senior Brother often talked trash in pre-match interviews and liked to attack the keyboard warriors on the Internet, he never attacked the professional players on other occasions. He once said that trash talk should be said before the match to create the atmosphere. After the match, it wasn't trash talk, it was adding insult to injury.
That was why even though quite a few players were 'targeted' by the Eldest Senior Brother's trash talk, the Eldest Senior Brother was very popular in the League of Legends circle.
Li Xu once again sent Senior Brother Doublelift a private message in English, thanking him for his support. This time, Senior Brother Doublelift replied very quickly. The two of them exchanged pleasantries, and it was as if they were old friends from China.
Senior Brother Doublelift's new teammate, former GEN G support CoreJJ, also sent a message. "Being in a foreign country, I can understand Li Xu's difficulties. I hope that everyone can be more tolerant of him. Of course, he has now won the love and respect of many people."
Li Xu saw an unexpected name at the end.
Ryu: "Li Xu's performance is very good. You deserve everyone's expectations. Although I have retired behind the scenes, I still pay attention to LCK. Li Xu may be different from other professional players. You are the only Chinese in LCK. However, we are all fighting for the same goal. Do your best and continue to prove yourself."
Speaking of Faker's rise to fame, some people would think of how Li Ge had single-handedly killed the number one mid laner in Korea, Master An, three times with three different heroes.
However, more people would think of the fifth round of the 2013 OGN Summer Tournament. It was a narrow encounter between Brother Li and the talented mid laner, Ryu.
Due to the tournament format, both of them chose the Master of Shadowstream, Tribulation. Ryu's Full Blood Tribulation chased after Li Ge's Blood Tribulation at the bottom of the tower. In the end, Li Ge used Quicksilver to neutralize Ryu's ultimate. Then, he used his positioning and Shadow Clone to dodge Ryu's WQE and killed Ryu's Tribulation.
At that time, Ryu's dumbfounded expression looked like Director Wang Yuelun from the variety show "Where Are We Going, Daddy". From then on, Ryu was called "Yue Lun" by the Chinese players.
The exciting scene of the battle between the two Tribulations could be described as a miracle due to Faker's maneuvering. It was replayed and mentioned countless times. Ryu could only be whipped countless times. From then on, every time this scene appeared, there would be comments. "I feel sorry for Yue Lun." “
When Ryu was interviewed, he introduced himself as such. "I'm Ryu, the Tribulation who was shamed to death. Please don't watch that match anymore." “
After this battle, Ryu left his hometown. The once talented mid laner no longer had his former brilliance. After the end of the S8 season, Ryu announced his official retirement and started working as an assistant coach for 100T. He no longer had the chance to take revenge on Faker.
Park Ji Hwan: "Good luck, Li Xu. The Korean eSports scene is xenophobic, but it's also tolerant. You heard the cheers at the venue. That's their recognition of you."
Because they couldn't log into Twitter in China, there would definitely be more people supporting Li Xu.
What was rare was that there were no large numbers of anti-fans jumping out to flame these people.
Seeing so many people praising him, Li Xu couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.
As he scrolled through the replies praising him, he commented.
"Yes! This big brother is an honest person. There's nothing wrong with what he said. I'm the most handsome top laner in LCK. But you can be bolder and remove the top laner. Yes, you can remove LCK as well. I'm the most handsome professional player. That's much more appropriate. "
"The club should give me a raise? This big brother has hit the nail on the head. An outstanding player like me deserves a raise! "
"Yes? This brother wants to see me shine to Yasso next time. Sigh! I'll go with the wind. Unfortunately, this dark world has forcefully sealed my happiness! I'm sorry, brother. " “
"This beauty wants to give birth to my child? Aiya! No way, no way. As a good youth, how can I, Li Xu, do such a thing? But you should at least give me your contact details! "
"This girl asked me to show mercy when I beat up JAG? How can I do that? This is a matter of principle. That Lindarang is so arrogant. If I don't beat him up, how can I prove that I'm better than him? Besides, Teddy probably won't go easy on his old boss. "
… …
Humans are so vain!
However, it was foreseeable that if it was his turn to take the blame one day, these anti-fans would definitely scold him.
