Chapter 2 The hot man is back, shocking the whole network "Now the two platforms are considered one family." Gao Wen replied while driving: "TikTok can now also live broadcast League of Legends, which has caused a great impact on traditional live broadcast platforms." "That's it" Su Xing felt a little emotional. When he left this circle, Huya and Douyu were still fighting each other to the death, but in the blink of an eye, the anchors of both parties can play together. "Let's talk about this event." Su Xing came back to his senses and slowly said, "Although I don't quite understand why you want to find an outdated little character to participate in the event, but taking money to do things is my principle. What kind of role do you need me to play this time?" "Play?" Gao Wen was slightly stunned, then shook her head and said, "For those who are just here for fun, the fact that you can participate in the Legend Cup in person is enough." "what?" Su Xing was a little surprised and asked, "I have no popularity, no honors, and no scandals. Why do I sound like I'm famous?"
"Don't you know?" Gao Wen seemed a little surprised and said, "You were on the hot search list for several days at the beginning of this season." "This" Su Xing shook his head and said, "I really don't know. I basically don't watch Weibo, Tik Tok, etc. in the past few years in the mountains." "This season, Riot Games officially decided to cancel the mythical equipment system. On the day of the announcement, your name was on Weibo's hot search list for several days." Gao Wen patiently explained: "People on the Internet said that you were good at criticizing back then." wake:. When Riot announced the launch of the Mythic system at the end of 2020, he felt that this change would accelerate the consumption of the game's lifespan. As a professional player, he keenly realized that with the addition of mythic equipment, the gap between players of different levels would be further narrowed. Although adapting to the version is the job of professional players, Su Xing feels that his personal strength seems to become insignificant in the face of the mythical equipment system. In previous competitions, everyone competed on personal strength and hero pool, but with the introduction of the mythical equipment system, there is no so-called game in the laning phase. Everyone just focuses on development, gets mythical equipment, and then fights in the resource group. He couldn't enjoy the game in this environment at all. As a newcomer, he had no ability to change and was unwilling to adapt to this environment, so he made an extremely bold decision. He wrote a 10,000-word essay on Weibo criticizing Riot's official designers for not doing their job, and then took advantage of the expiration of his contract to announce his retirement. “It’s never too late to correct your mistakes.” Su Xing was silent for a moment and then gave his evaluation. At the same time, the live broadcast screen on the tablet in his hand also showed Ning, Uzi and other so-called captains selecting the members they wanted. The whole process looks a bit like the variety shows I have seen before. This legendary cup composed of retired players does seem to be full of gimmicks. The comments in his live broadcast room were also very interesting. What made Su Xing feel regretful was that those faces who had been his old rivals on the field were unwilling to choose him as a teammate. "Awake? Shit, the missing people have returned!?" "Huya is really awesome. He managed to find the person. I wonder what his current level is." "Awesome, the hot man is back!" "If you don't understand, just ask, who is Su Xing?"
"Let me put it this way. In his first season in LPL, this guy killed Rouji, Scott, and Left Hand, who were almost the same players, in the mid lane. If it weren't for his teammates, he would have probably made it to the World Championship that year." "He was the Rookie of the Year in LPL in his first year. This guy's mid laner is so strong that he even broke the LPL single kill record at the time." "He was the first professional player who dared to rant on Weibo. He thought the emergence of the mythic equipment system was destroying League of Legends, and it turned out he was right." "After cursing, he announced his retirement. I heard that Tencent put pressure on him, but I don't know if it's true or not." "Bullshit, he felt that the game was no longer fun after having mythical equipment, so he chose to retire." "It's really boring. This is how ranked matches work. Heroes who can't produce coughing blood and god points don't deserve to be in the game." "This is so funny! If Riot had any sense of humanity, they should have deleted the mythical equipment a long time ago!" "Where has this guy been? Why hasn't he been seen in more than three years? I haven't seen him live streaming either." "Who knows, maybe they won't even play games anymore." "That's too much. If he doesn't even play games, isn't it just a joke to drag him out to participate in the Old Man Cup?" "You're talking as if Snake can play League of Legends, but he was just pulled in to make up the numbers, right?" "To be honest, Brother Snake said he is a Korean server master." "Master, shit, even Tieba has found out, his account was bought." “The comments are more interesting than the show.” Su Xing took a quick look at the dense comments in the live broadcast room and came to a conclusion. He was so busy reading the comments that he didn't pay attention to what other people on the show were saying. "It looks like no one wants your one-fee card." Gao Wen, who was driving in the front, raised her lips slightly and said, "If this trend continues, you should be on the same team with Uzi in the end." "Ah, I'm on the same team with Uzi?" Su Xing was a little surprised. Sure enough, a moment later Guan Zeyuan announced on the show that Su Xing, the last player in the player pool, would automatically join Uzi's team as the mid laner. From the live broadcast, we can see that Uzi's smile was a bit forced at this time, but it is understandable. I guess no one wants their mid laner teammate to be someone who hasn't touched the game for several years. "It seems that my guess was correct." Gao Wen said calmly: "The main purpose of holding the Legend Cup this time is to attract traffic and support some retired professional players. Some people in Huya's senior management hope that Ning and Theshy will win the championship, so that it can be a hot topic." "Indeed, I see." Su Xing nodded. He could see that Huya was determined to take advantage of Incheon people’s traffic. Otherwise, Ning and Baolan are both captains, but theshy is not. In addition, Ning has the first right to choose teammates, and he directly chose Tehshy as his teammate. "But there are also people who want Uzi to win the championship, after all, he and theshy are the two top players in LPL." Gao Wen smiled and said, "This is also an opportunity for you." "Chance?" Su Xing laughed dumbly and said, "I'm past the competitive age. It doesn't matter whether I win the championship or not. This time, you Tiger Teeth are paying to help those kids in the mountains. It doesn't matter if I'm just a supporting clown."
"You have indeed changed." Gao Wen was slightly depressed upon hearing this. It was hard to imagine that the current Su Xing had said a few years ago that he would replace Li Xianghe and become the world's strongest legendary mid laner. "Time is a butcher's knife." Su Xing looked at the scenery that was constantly receding outside the car window and said with a smile, "This is also good." (End of this chapter)
