The predecessor of Team KG was a not-so-famous professional club in Season S1. At that time, the team's results in Season S1 weren't that good. In addition, the salary of the professional players at that time was very meager, and there were frequent changes in the team's members, so they were never able to make a name for themselves in the national server.
It wasn't until Season S2 that the club received a new investment. The team was restructured, and the club changed its name to KG. Then, Tian Tian, who was recognized as the best mid player on the national server, joined the new KG team at the beginning of Season S2. That was when the team started to make a name for itself in the professional esports scene.
It was even shining.
From the start of Season S2 to Season S3, S4, and even Season S5, Team KG's ranking in the Chinese Professional League had always been stable, and they rarely dropped to the second tier.
On one hand, it was because they had a trump card like Tian Tian holding down the fort.
On the other hand, it was closely related to the strong coaching team of the KG team, as well as the teamwork and overall quality of the other members.
Before Season S6, the national server was recognized as having three strong veteran teams. One was God- Hand of God, another was Dust- Dust, and the last one was KG.
Compared to the other two club teams that were also in the top tier of the national server, Team KG had a unique characteristic that the other clubs didn't have.
That was their "All Chinese Class" lineup.
This might not have been an eye-catching characteristic before Season S3, but after Season S3, as the Korean foreign players slowly infiltrated the LPL, a team purely made up of professional esports players became more and more valuable in the circle.
It was a little funny.
But also a little sad and helpless.
The national server had tens of millions of League of Legends players, and hundreds of professional teams. But the number of teams that could truly guarantee an "All Chinese Class" lineup could be counted on one hand. It was so precious and rare.
Of course, from a rational and objective point of view, whether a team's "bloodline" was pure, whether it was an "All Chinese Class", or whether it had Korean foreign players, there wasn't much to care about.
After all, just look at other sports like football or basketball. Aren't there players from all races and countries in the same team?
It was the same principle in esports.
Everything should be considered to maximize the strength of the team.
But …
Although this was the logic.
But sometimes, some emotions and perseverance couldn't be measured by logic.
While the other teams were gradually increasing their efforts to recruit Korean foreign players, KG Team made a completely different and abrupt statement:
"KG's results can be bad."
"Our team members might be a bit weaker than the Korean foreign players."
"But anyway —"
"The brand of the All Chinese Class is the foundation of KG's standing. It is something that he will defend even when there is no way out."
"We're a team from the national server."
"Our team members will always be our own people."
His tone was calm as if he was merely stating a statement, but it carried a kind of heroic and domineering aura that made one's blood boil.
The person who said this was the boss of KG Club.
Everyone knew how to be obedient, but what was truly commendable was perseverance after saying it.
KG Team had done it.
Ever since the start of the S2 season, their results had been at the peak, but also at the bottom. They had been in a precarious situation, but no matter what, KING Team had never recruited any foreign players from other countries. The title of "All Chinese Class" had always been firmly and firmly maintained on their own head.
Some said it was stupid.
Some said it wasn't necessary.
However, there were more people who held a faint sense of respect for the KG Club under all kinds of emotions.
In esports, the strong were king.
But there was another more important quality that was even more precious, and that was perseverance.
…
"A club with such perseverance."
"Even if it's worse …"
"It's not that bad."
Lin Feng subconsciously turned his head and saw that Number One, Number Five and Li Shiyi were already walking over from a short distance away. It seemed like they had just arrived.
Lin Feng's eyes lit up.
"Senior! Xiao Wu! Eleven! "
Li Shiyi happily waved at Lin Feng. Number Five also smiled and said hello to Lin Feng. As they walked closer, Number One looked at Lin Feng and raised his eyebrows.
"You're right on time."
"Why are you standing there in a daze? Didn't you ask Fatty to lead you in?"
Lin Feng scratched his head.
"Oh, I just got here."
Number One nodded and didn't say anything else. He raised his eyes to look at the dazzling sign on the gate of KG Club's base and casually said,
"Alright."
"Since you're all here —"
"Let's go in."
…
As the temporary external coaches of the three teams that had qualified for the S6 finals, No.1 and No.5 had long since received their access cards from their respective clubs. With a simple swipe, they arrived at the entrance of the base. With another swipe, the door was unlocked, and they pushed open the door and entered.
The interior design was similar to the Instant Water Club's training base last night.
The first floor was also a large living room.
The only difference was that it lacked the various entertainment facilities of Instant Water Club.
This was the strict style of KG Team from top to bottom. There were almost no entertainment facilities other than computers in the club's training base. There were no activity rooms either. Other than resting, there was only training.
"The All Chinese Class is a sign that needs to be persevered."
"But if you want to hold on to this sign for the rest of your life, then you don't need this sign."
"It's not just a sign."
"It's also an honor."
"Now that you've got it, you have to protect it even if you have to use all your strength."
This was also a maxim from the big boss of KG Club.
Naturally, it became the principle that everyone in KG Club followed and adhered to.
"The atmosphere in KG Club's training base should be the best out of all the LPL clubs in the country —" Number Five said to Lin Feng with a smile as he stood next to him. His tone was full of admiration.
Lin Feng nodded subconsciously.
Putting other teams aside, a team like the High Mountain Club of the LSPL could be seen at a glance how terrible it was. Even if he saw the training base of the Quick Water Club last night, the team members, including Shi Hang, might be training seriously and hard, but compared to the KG he saw today …
Perhaps they were still a step behind.
"That's why they can fight their way into the S Series for a few years."
No.1's leisurely voice came again. He paused and shook his head as if he was slightly regretful.
"Yeah …"
"What a pity."
