Chapter 882
Words:1974Update:22/06/17 11:21:18
On the 26th, while SKT's Guapi players were enjoying their last moments of leisure in Jeju Island, the GRF club suddenly announced the termination of their contract with coach CvMax. Brother Mag would not be participating in the international tournament.
This news shook the entire e-sports circle. Kicking out the head coach a week before the start of the World Championship, this last-minute change seemed ridiculous to everyone.
Although Brother Mag's BP sometimes looked like he had cerebral palsy, firing the coach at this time was undoubtedly a huge blow to the team's morale.
If it weren't for the internal conflicts, no team would sacrifice their own coach before a big battle. The SNS forums were abuzz with discussion for a while.
Many LCK fans began to worry. Was the situation of LCK teams being eliminated in the group stage last year going to happen again?
Just as everyone was questioning GRF's management's decision, Perkz from G2, who was in the same group as GRF, jumped out to join in the fun. He joked, "Brothers, if a team changes their coach before the start of the international tournament, it must be for the good of the team!"
Interestingly, LPL's official commentator, Ze Yuan, had said on a program the day before that whether GRF could advance in the group of death depended on Brother Mag's BP. He had focused on analyzing Brother Mag, but Brother Mag was gone the next day.
SKT's entire team was playing dodgeball on the beach. A group of Guapi players were wearing singlets and beach shorts, playing barefoot on the beach happily.
Choi Jung-yeon was sitting under a parasol at the side, broadcasting the Guapi players' game. Clid, who was not on the field, was lying down and playing with his phone.
Suddenly, Clid jumped up. "Hey! Big news, Coach Jin Taihu has been fired. "
"What?"
Li Xu, who happened to be standing next to the two of them, turned his head instinctively and asked, "Who got fired?"
"Watch out!"
"Hmm?"
Li Xu turned his head to look at the field. The ball was flying at high speed, and it hit him squarely in the face.
Bang.
Li Xu was sent sprawling on the beach, sprawled out on all fours.
Clid and Choi Jung-yeon hurried over to check on her. "Are you okay?"
The part of Li Xu's face that was hit by the ball was a little red. It looked like he had been punched. His head was still a little dizzy and he did not speak.
"Hey, have you been smashed silly?"
Clid reached out his hand and patted Li Xu's cheek gently. Seeing that Li Xu still did not respond, he was about to slap him.
Choi Jung-yeon quickly grabbed Clid's arm. "Tai Min, what are you doing?"
Clid: "He's not responding. Why don't you try slapping him?"
"Eh? Don't even think about hitting me. "
Li Jiu quickly pushed Clid away and sat up. He shook his dizzy head and touched his cheek where the ball hit him. He stared at Clid with a vigilant look.
Xu Ge had never been slapped in the face since he was young. You actually want to slap my face?
"Infuriate."
"Hmm?"
"Look at my face. Is it still handsome?"
"…"
Choi Jung-yeon was speechless. She pointed the camera at Li Xu's face and let the audience see the eye-catching red mark.
"Xu Ge is so shameless. He's still so flirtatious when he speaks."
"If only the girl didn't stop him. I really want to see Clid slap him."
"The devil above. But I want to see it too. 23333."
"What's the point of watching dodgeball? It's more interesting to watch SKT's internal brawl. "
"I saw it. The ball was thrown by Li Ge. He used all his strength."
"But Xu Ge's face is still quite handsome. His body is even better. It's comparable to mine."
"Li Xu is just so-so. He's still a distance away from me."
"Do the netizens really like Yuanbin?"
… ….
A group of Guapi players had already gathered around. Li Xu quickly covered his face and lay down, pretending to be injured. "Ouch! Who threw the ball? It hurts. "
However, Guapi players had already seen his previous behavior and did not care about his performance. "Taimin said that Coach Jin Taihu was fired? GRF coach? "
Clid: "Yes, GRF coach. GRF doesn't have a coach now."
Mata: "That's too bad. Lehends also said that he wanted to perform well in the international tournament."
"Other teams and us …"
Li Ge was about to speak when he suddenly felt something touching his leg. He looked down.
Li Xu was lying on the ground. He was poking Guapi's calf with his index finger. "Can you please move a little? Don't point your butt at me."
"Oh, sorry." Li Ge moved to the side.
Seeing Guapi move away, Li Xu started to pretend to be injured again. "It hurts. Look at my face. Who threw the ball just now? I'll forgive him if he treats me to a mango smoothie."
However, no one was watching his performance.
Li Ge: "Let's continue the topic. The other teams have nothing to do with us. There can only be one champion."
Guapi players from the barbecue stall had the same thought, which made SKT very happy. The international tournament was a battle between clubs. What did the other teams in LCK have to do with them?
Although they did not say it explicitly, that was what they meant.
In fact, SKT was viewed as an enemy by many fans of other teams in Korea. All the talk about being in the same division was a lie.
SKT was a huge mountain that was pressing down on the heads of all the teams in LCK. Everyone wanted to topple it.
Unless SKT really became LCK's last fig leaf, the fans of other teams could not wait for SKT to be eliminated 0-6 in the group stage. When that happened, they could send a wave of "1557" to mock them.
Last year, when GEN G was eliminated in the group stage, the fans of other teams basically mocked and ridiculed them. They helped plan the swimming route from Busan to Seoul so that GEN G's members could swim back.
It was only when KT was eliminated that the Koreans began to realize that things were not going well. At that time, they began to remember their brotherhood and cheered for AFS.
Teddy waved his fist. "GRF self-destructed. DWG is also unreliable. Looks like LCK's results can only depend on us."
"Sigh! That's not right. "
Li Xu, who was lying on the ground eavesdropping, suddenly sat up and slapped his thigh. "GRF finally reacted. Now we're sure to qualify for the group stage."
"What?"
Li Xu counted with his fingers as he analyzed. "GRF's biggest weakness in the past is gone. Now it's better. This is GRF's most promising year … Ugh ~ ~ ~"
Choi Jung-yeon reached out and covered Li Xu's mouth. "You can continue lying down."
'This idiot. The fans of GRF are obviously busy criticizing their management. Why are you jumping out to share their firepower?'
"Miss, your actions are so cute. 23333."
"Li Xu faked his injury. My heart aches when I see him. It's just that no one cares about him."
"But his face is really smashed. Haha."
"Li Xu has offended almost everyone he can in the past few days of live streaming. It's not easy for GRF's management to come out and criticize them. Li Xu, you should know your place."
"Xu Ge is still the one who sees things clearly. Griffin is getting better. Haha."
"Let's be honest. Li Xu is good at being sarcastic."
"Brother Mai might not be able to qualify, but Griffin will definitely qualify if Brother Mai is not here."
"To be honest, GRF's individual strength is still very strong. As long as there is no mysterious BP, they will at least qualify for the group stage."
"Xu Ge didn't expect it either. He just started a wave of GRF two days ago during his live stream. Two days later, GRF's coach is gone."
