BO3s and BO5s had always been the most direct test of a team's overall strength.
The outcome of a single match in a set of 'best-of-ones' had reduced a lot of testing factors. It was not like a set of 'best-of-three' or 'best-of-five' matches, where the players' stamina, endurance, energy, and even the level of the team's leader and coaching staff were tested.
In a single match, everyone could prepare well before the start of the match. They could just use their tactics and routines and fight head-on.
But in BO3s and BO5s, the players, team leaders, and coaches had to constantly adjust their condition and tactics. After a match, they had to hold an emergency meeting and come up with a new plan based on the opponent's tactics and performance in the previous match. If they were lacking in this area, even if their team won the first two matches of the BO5s, they still couldn't avoid the tragic ending of being trailed by two to three.
In this regard, most of the teams in the LPL region were weak.
Of course, in this year's S6 finals, all three club teams had already begun to pay attention to this point. Lin Feng knew that although special coaches like Senior No.1 and Xiao Wu couldn't personally accompany any team on the field, they would still sit behind the scenes and play a role in devising strategies.
However, in the Korean LCK, there were also legendary players like Lee Dao-jae and M who weren't inferior to No. 1 and No. 5.
So behind the scenes, there would be an invisible confrontation between the legendary players of the previous generation.
This was a little far-fetched.
Lin Feng shook his head.
Speaking of which, in the upcoming two days of training, Team God and the other two teams in the LPL region would still have a certain advantage in a single 'best-of-one' match like this.
Their results wouldn't be too bad either.
Not to mention …
A certain someone picked up his cup and spat out the water. Then, he wiped his face with a towel and felt refreshed.
Even a "royal sparring partner" like him was preparing to go on stage in this private training match.
Forget about the other teams, but he had to make sure he didn't run into Team BW- *, especially that unknown BW second team or their substitute jungler …
If he ran into them, he would kill them!
…
After washing up, Lin Feng walked out of the bathroom and saw that the room was still empty. He scratched his head. If Ah Zeng went to eat breakfast, he should be back by now …
Therefore, he picked up his phone and sent a WeChat message to Ceng Rui.
He waited for a while, but there was no reply.
Su Yu pursed his lips and decided to ignore his friend. He packed up his things, grabbed his room card, and walked to the room next door where An Xin and Tang Bingyao were staying. He pressed the doorbell.
Ding dong, ding dong!
He pressed the bell twice, but there was no response from inside.
Still sleeping?
Lin Feng was puzzled. He felt that something was wrong. He didn't know about the others, but these two girls never had the habit of sleeping in. Could it be that they also went to eat breakfast together?
"He actually didn't call me … This is too much!"
A certain someone was a little dissatisfied. He picked up his phone and immediately sent a message to his childhood sweetheart, denouncing and accusing her in a righteous manner. He didn't have to wait long before his phone rang with a message notification. It was a voice message from the other party.
Lin Feng clicked on the voice message, and the girl's melodious voice immediately played.
"Big idiot, we finished eating early in the morning, okay?"
"When Ah Zeng called you earlier, you slept like a pig and couldn't wake up."
"We're in Senior One and Xiao Wu's room. Hurry up!"
… …
"I talked to that guy before I came. There's basically no problem. It seems that your discussion here went well."
"Well, what about Lao Si? How is he?"
"Of course it's going on. We don't need to worry about him. People from the World Telecommunications Association arrived in Man City late last night, and just now Lao Si went to find someone to go through the procedures —"
When Lin Feng knocked on the door of Senior One and Xiao Wu's room, it was Li Shiyi who came over to help open the door. As soon as Lin Feng walked in, he heard this conversation coming from inside the room.
He easily recognized one of the voices as Senior One's.
And the other voice …
Although he couldn't tell for a moment, he subconsciously felt that it was a little familiar.
"Who is it?"
Lin Feng pulled Li Shiyi aside and asked curiously.
A rare mysterious smile appeared on Li Shiyi's face. "You'll know when you see for yourself."
Walking past the door, Lin Feng looked up into the bedroom. The curtains in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows had been drawn open, and the bright morning sun of Man City shone in on everyone in the room.
Tang Bingyao, Ceng Rui, and An Xin were all there, sitting by the bed or on a small chair.
Number Five was also sitting on the side, watching the two talking in front of him with a smile on his face.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, two people were talking.
One of them was Number One, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling windows behind him with his arms crossed in front of his chest, his posture relaxed and casual.
As for the other man, he was tall and straight. His side was facing Lin Feng. Only half of his face could be seen. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back. His posture was as straight as a spear and he looked like an incomparably sharp spear.
One was calm and relaxed, the other was sharp and fierce. The temperament of the two seemed to form a sharp contrast.
Lin Feng was stupefied.
Suddenly, a certain someone came to his senses. His eyes lit up, and he cried out in joy,
"Senior Two!?"
… …
It seemed that these legendary seniors from the previous generation really did have the demeanor of a master. Their whereabouts were unpredictable, and they often disappeared without a trace.
Even though Lin Feng and the others were very familiar with these seniors, if it weren't for the fact that Number One, Five, and Three were invited to return to the country, they would have spent more time with them. Before this, Number One and Five would have gone on honeymoons all over the world, and Number Three would have been no different, or occasionally followed the couple in front of them as a third wheel.
In contrast, Number Two and Number Four didn't show their faces in the country often.
Both of them seemed to hold high positions in the North American Telecommunications Association, and they only came back a few times a year. For Lin Feng, aside from the time he had chatted with Senior Two online during Nightingale's secret war, it had been at least a few years since he last saw them.
So at this moment, seeing Number Two again in the hotel room of Number One and Number Five was indeed a huge surprise for a certain someone.
However, in contrast to a certain someone's delight, Number 2 only frowned slightly when he heard the voice and turned his head to look at them. He did not show the surprised or gratified expression that a certain someone had expected. Instead, he did not even bother to exchange any pleasantries and tossed something over.
"Catch."
Lin Feng subconsciously reached out and caught the object.
Then he looked down.
A gopher machine.
Lin Feng was stunned, his face full of question marks. What does this mean? Is this a special greeting in America recently?
Just as he was looking at the senior that he had not seen for a long time, Number Two had already thrown a cold sentence at him.
"Play a game for me."
Huh?
Lin Feng was dumbfounded again.
This … this doesn't seem to be the scene of a warm reunion I expected.
