The top laner's one-blood kill caused a commotion and discussion even among the team leaders and coaches of the clubs in the spectator seats:
"KG's Tian Tian … his personal top laner level has now surpassed the average LPL player by at least half a body's length."
This was the judgment of the head coach of the God team. When he made this conclusion, the expression on his face was quite solemn, showing that his evaluation was absolutely not exaggerated or watered down.
The others around him, including the coaches and team leaders of the Fast Water club, subconsciously showed a look of agreement, and then could not help but sigh.
"Our national server … the development and progress of the top laner position is still not fast enough."
Indeed.
Of course, Tian Tian's individual skills and talent were praiseworthy. However, if one were to think about it, this was also a problem that existed in the LPL region.
The national server did not pay enough attention to the top laner.
Tian Tian of the KG team alone could even stand on the throne of the world's number one top laner. Compared to the world's top laners in other divisions, he might be a little stronger.
But the remaining first-line professional top laners on the national server … were a lot behind the top laners of the other European, American, and Korean divisions.
There were no other LPL top laners who could still perform well in the world arena.
Even if the main top laners of the two clubs, God and Fast Water, were to meet teams from other divisions, they would still be inferior to the top laners of the world's top laners, whether it was in individual matches or team battles in the mid to late stages.
There was no such disparity in the mid laner position.
Look at the national server. Let's not talk about Morning Star who was half a step into the realm of the Yonkō (Four Emperors). Below that, there was Team Rapid Water's "Addisi" Shi Hang and Team Dark Light's "Lightless Heart", as well as the main mid laners of several other LPL teams. Their strength was relatively average, and any one of them would not be pulled apart by teams from other divisions in the world arena.
But the top laner …
Just take this training match as an example.
It was not an exaggeration to say that anyone with a discerning eye could easily see from the first few minutes of the match and this wave of one-blood kills that on the blue side, Tian Tian's top laner, Gnar, was obviously a level stronger than Team Rapid Water's top laner, Rambo.
Whether it was the control of the troops or the understanding of the lines, they were not on the same level.
Of course, this was because Tian Tian himself was strong enough. However, they were all professional top laners in the LPL. There was such an obvious gap in strength … It was a worrying thing.
…
"If you have time later, can you help me bring a few more?"
At the same time, he could clearly see the flaws in the top laner position on the national server. No.1 turned his head to look at No.3 and asked for his old friend's opinion.
Tian Tian.
In fact, half of them were brought out by Number Three.
There was no need to be humble when it came to top laners. As long as No.3 was willing to spend a certain amount of time, half a year to a year at most, the overall level of top laners in the national esports circle would not rise much, but there would definitely be a few seedlings who were qualified to be in the first tier.
But unfortunately …
No.3 directly rolled his eyes when he heard this. "Sorry to disturb you, I don't have that much free time. Don't you have enough things to do next year?"
There was a hidden meaning in No.1's words. Naturally, it was easy for him to understand what his old friend was talking about next year. He could not help but shake his head and did not pursue the matter any further. "It's just a suggestion. After all … these are two different things. It's good to help as much as we can."
No.5 also interjected softly at this time.
"And … the matter next year, to a certain extent, actually sacrificed the interests of the majority."
"If it's possible, within our capabilities, it can be considered as our compensation, isn't it?"
Compared to No.1, the former team captain and old friend, the words of No.5, who was the only female among the five, had a greater effect on No.3.
And …
Some of her words were indeed reasonable.
No.3 was silent for a moment. In the end, he shook his head helplessly. "Alright, but even if I put in a little more effort, there has to be suitable seedlings." As he said this, he spread his hands at the fiancée in front of him. "You can't expect me to be in charge of the entire LPL to LSPL circle, right?"
Naturally, it was impossible for one person's strength to achieve that level.
"That's right." No.1 raised his eyebrows. "We need to target some suitable seedlings …"
However, although the few of them had extremely high reputation, status, and even connections in the national server and even the professional esports circle, it was really a little difficult for them to immediately cite a few suitable seedlings in the national server.
"Wine Cup Eight!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out from the side.
It turned out that Lin Feng had already emerged from the seat next to the three of them. His eyes were shining as he suggested excitedly, "Really, Senior, Little Eight can do it!"
"Wine Cup Eight?" No.3 frowned. "That sounds a little familiar."
On the side, No.5 had already considerately explained, "Team Seven Leaves' top laner in the LSPL." As she said this, she also glanced at Lin Feng. "The candidate Lin Feng gave … is indeed quite suitable. As far as I know, there are so many teams in the LSPL, Wine Cup Eight's top laner should be able to rank in the top tier."
Lin Feng rushed to add.
"Not just the top tier!"
"If it's Little Eight, even if he's placed in the LPL, he's completely qualified. Team Seven Leaves is preparing to qualify for the LPL in Season S7."
"It sounds like empty talk." No.3 waved his hand impatiently, glancing sideways at Lin Feng. "You're quite familiar with that … Wine Cup Eight?"
"It's alright," Lin Feng admitted with a blush.
No.3 nodded. "How do you compare to Fatty?"
This question finally made Lin Feng put aside his careless attitude. He seriously thought for a moment and answered, "Against the current Fatty, there's definitely no chance. But if it's before the S5 finals … I think it'll be a forty to sixty chance."
His answer was not deliberately exaggerated to put in a good word for his acquaintance.
But this way …
"That's enough," No.1 commented. He glanced at No.3. "What do you think?"
No.3 shrugged. "Alright, count it in."
Receiving No.3's promise, Lin Feng beamed. "That's great! I'll contact Little Eight later. If there's nothing else, Senior, I'll head back first. I still haven't finished my chicken chops —"
Before he could finish, he got up and prepared to leave. However, before his butt could leave his seat, No.1 stopped him again.
"Wait."
When Lin Feng obediently sat down again, No.1 looked at him.
"Why are you running?"
"Did you think I came here today to let you watch the show?"
"Come, tell me —"
"What do you think of this match?"
Lin Feng answered without hesitation, "KG wins."
"Oh?" No.1 looked interested. "You don't think Ah Hang will win?"
Lin Feng shook his head.
"It's not that I don't think Old Shi will win."
