At the beginning of September, the S6 season of the Chinese server had basically come to an end.
For the vast majority of the Chinese players, the news of Team Rapid Water winning the S6 season championship was still extremely shocking, and they needed enough time to slowly digest it.
But there was one piece of news that was enough to temporarily shake off the shock of all the Chinese players and cause an uproar in an instant —
After "Star Emperor" Morning Star, their national server's LPL division finally had another mid-laner who was truly worthy of standing at the top of the world's arena!
Team Rapid Water, the mid-laner, Addisi!
A veteran professional mid-laner who retired at the beginning of the S2 season but returned to the Chinese professional esports circle in this year's S6 season!
In the S6 Summer League semifinals to the finals, Addisi led Team Rapid Water to consecutively defeat God- Hand of God and Team KG to reach the top and win the season championship trophy. At the same time, he also won the title of the best MVP of the season.
To put it more simply …
It was that the Chinese server finally had another Seven Kings!
"It really wasn't easy —"
On the Internet, a professional esports commentator posted a long Weibo post with heartfelt gratification:
"Since the beginning of the S4 season, ever since the official League of Legends introduced the titles of 'Four Kings' and 'Seven Kings', the only one who is truly qualified to be among the eleven is Team God's Morning Star."
"It's been a full three seasons. Apart from Morning Star, the most promising and qualified player to win the title of 'Seven Kings' is King's Top Laner. But below that, whether it's Wildsnow Nightsong, Lightless Heart, or Team Mingguang's jungler, they are still some distance away from the threshold of the world's Seven Kings."
"Not to mention the realm of 'Four Kings of Esports'."
"In our LPL region, apart from inviting Han Yuan, our own China professional esports players have always been lacking a few truly bright flag characters."
"But now, this situation has finally changed."
"Addisi's appearance is not only good news for the Rapid Water Esports Club, but it is also a blessing for the entire professional esports circle."
"Because this means that from the start of this season, our national server has finally started to show its strength. Team Rapid's Adis is the first, but he definitely won't be the last. I believe that in the coming days, our national server's professional eSports circle will have even more world-class players. We might even continue to challenge the Seven Kings and Four Emperors!"
"Everything … has just begun!"
…
Just as the professional esports commentator on Weibo had said, the rise of the Chinese esports scene was just beginning. At the same time, the S6 World Finals, which would kick off in October, was just around the corner.
In the Chinese server's LPL division, after the end of the summer finals, Team Rapid Water, who had won the season's championship trophy, won a spot in the China division of the S Series League as a dark horse, becoming the second seed.
Although God- Hand of God was eliminated by Rapid Water in the semi-finals of the summer competition, according to the points ranking of the whole season, Hand of God was still the number one seeded team in terms of total points.
As for the last spot in the finals …
"We'll have to wait for the qualifiers in a few days," Su Xue muttered.
She didn't forget to pick up a piece of braised pork with her chopsticks and place it in Lin Feng's bowl.
"Eat more, eat more."
"You've lost so much weight after a week of military training. The food in the cafeteria can't compare to the food at home, right? Sigh, I told you to come back when you had time. It's convenient to take the subway anyway, but you just wouldn't listen … "
Su Xue's ramblings were like that of an old mother. She didn't look like the idol or goddess she usually did in front of the camera. She was like a big sister who was worried about her little brother.
Lin Feng mumbled as he chewed on his braised pork.
"Time is tight during military training. Sometimes we have to do drills at night. There's no time at all."
"Oh yeah, and I'm going to play ranked games with my roommates."
Su Xue snapped at Lin Feng and flicked him on the head.
"You know how to play ranked games?!"
"Did you forget about your sister now that you've got roommates? F * ck, to think that those guys in my live broadcast room are talking about you every day. I think you've forgotten about them too. Later, after you're done eating, scram to my room and do a live broadcast, you hear? "
Lin Feng nodded obediently. "Okay."
"That's more like it." Su Xue nodded in satisfaction. Then, she sighed. "I didn't expect Team Speedwater to be this year's champion. Now that the first and second seeds of the world finals have been decided, all that's left is the third seed. I wonder which team will win it."
Lin Feng's answer was unequivocal.
"Of course it's KG."
Su Xue nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, I think it's KG too. To be honest, in the finals last night, KG and Rapid Water won by a hair's breadth. Yuan Shen's top lane Rambo was practically invincible in the middle of the match."
Lin Feng laughed.
"Yeah. Fatty's been doing pretty well lately."
Su Xue nodded and sighed with emotion.
"But in the end, Team Speedy still managed to turn the tide around. I didn't expect Addison to be so fierce. That last mid lane Vampire was just too explosive. In the team battle of the Great Dragon, he forcefully cut in first and split up the battlefield. He made it so that King's ADC, Mother Wheel, couldn't find a way to deal damage.
"Oh, right. I feel like God played pretty well in the semifinals as well."
"Snowy Nightsong's Jinx is invincible in the downwind game!"
"Star King's mid lane is as strong as ever," Su Xue commented.
"Speaking of which, the teams in the LPL are in really good shape this year. If we keep this up, we'll have a good chance of winning the championship this year!" Su Xue sighed. "Come to think of it, the teams in the LPL are in really good shape this year.
Win the championship?
Lin Feng subconsciously rubbed his nose and shook his head.
"Winning the championship is a little too difficult."
"Let's try to make it into the semifinals."
He was naturally aware of the rising momentum of the Chinese server's LPL division, and he was gratified and happy about it. However, this did not prevent him from maintaining a calm and objective judgment.
After all, no matter how good the current state of these teams were … it was still only relative to their own improvement.
However, in front of the Chinese server's LPL division, there were always a few towering mountains that stood there steadily and quietly for a few seasons.
Korea's SSK.
America's Season.
Europe's Legend.
Korea's Fate.
Su Xue didn't need Lin Feng's reminder to think of the top teams in the world. She felt a little discouraged.
"Yeah, that's true."
"Then let's at least try to make it into the semifinals this year.
We'll take it one step at a time. We'll improve a little this year and try to make a breakthrough next year! "
Su Xue consoled herself optimistically.
When Lin Feng heard this, he subconsciously narrowed his eyes. His eyes flashed with a cold and gloomy light.
Next year?
