Time soon came January 1st.

After the final New Year's Day holiday, everyone in EDG finally returned to the club and began to re-enter the training.

In fact, the Demacia Cup started half a month ago, but the club is quite clear about the matter. It is known that the team had just finished the S game not long ago and it was time to rest, so the club directly sent the second team to compete in the German Cup.

Faced with the starters of various LPL teams, EDG Team 2 was the target of being ravaged, and in the end, they were eliminated by TES in the first round of the knockout round.

But it doesn't matter. As the team with the most LPL German Cup champions, they really don't look down on the trophys of this kind of small competition.

As soon as Chen Ye returned to the base, he saw the Holy Gun Brother who was shaved into a buzzhead.

"Why haven't I ever watched you go online during this period?" Chen Ye smiled and stroked Brother Sheng Gun's dog head and asked, "You won't even play a game on vacation, right?"

"Absolute!" Brother Saint Gun said with a smile: "Where can you play Genshin Impact every day? "

"kindness?"

A murderous intent came from behind.

Brother Sheng Gun turned his head and saw Mingkai. He hurriedly said, "Just kidding, I have been playing small trumpets recently, and I have been caught playing large trumpets every day, and I am very annoying to beat them."

Chen Yeshen nodded with concern, he has also been tortured recently.

It's in the preseason now, and the ranking points have not been reset yet, so everyone in the world server plays casually.

When they saw an EDG prefix player ID on the opposite side, they were directly targeted like crazy.

The Holy Gun Brother was not good at ranking, but when he was targeted like this, he would have lost all the results. Although the winning rate was pretty good, it was really hard to beat, so he simply cut the trumpet and played.

"What about you?" Chen Yechong Mingkai asked, "Aren't you quit? Why are you still at the base?"

Mingkai's expression was slightly bitter: "You will know later..."

The three of them walked into the base together, and Nice's barking came towards him.

Nice is their EDG pet, a little Teddy, very cute. Some time ago, the official Douyin account of EDG club posted a video of Nice sitting in the Summoner's trophy, which attracted countless fans for a while.

Chen Ye leaned over and touched Nice's dog head, thinking that it had been a long time since he saw him.

"Who are our coaches and substitutes this year?" Saint Gun asked again: "The transfer period has been over for half a month, why is there no news yet? I asked Abu and there is no accurate letter."

Chen Ye was also attracted by interest. At the end of the transfer period some time ago, although EDG immediately issued a large list of players for the S11 season, it can be clearly seen that the coach and substitute column are still vacant.

He asked, "Will you just bring coaches and substitutes from the second team?"

"Of course not. We are also a champion club at least, how could we be so poor?"

Mingkai is still pretending to be mysterious, "I promise you that our coaches and substitutes this year are the top in the world!"

"Why are you still keeping this? Who is it?"

"You'll know right away!"

The three of them walked to the training room chatting, but saw Abu and Edju here, and the other teammates were already sitting in their seats, and they were the last three.

"Just come all the time." Ed Zhu smiled and said, "The one in the training room now is our 2021 EDG League of Legends training department!"

"Clam?"

Chen Ye looked at the few people in the lounge. Apart from Aide Zhu and analysts, there were only seven people.

Five starters, including Mingkai and Abu.

Who is the coach? Who is the substitute?

"No way?" Scout was stupid, "Is it true?"

"real."

Edju nodded, "Abu is the coach of the S11 season, and Mingkai is the substitute of the S11 season."

"It's great, it saves more money like this!" The boss laughed, "But Chen Ye, don't worry, you are the starting lineup. The main reason is that our team is quite neat and there is no need to be a substitute, so I took Mingkai as a strong man and just named him."

Chen Ye nodded with a smile, "It's okay, I'll take Mingkai to win the championship this year as a team member."

"That's the best!"

Everyone did not have any objection to this arrangement. After all, coach Abu's ability is still here, and he is one of the best in China. If the factory manager is... it is of course no problem to be a substitute.

The requirement for EDG youth training is to go up by 300 points in the world service master. Although the factory manager has retired for many years, his score is still around 500 and 600 points. With many years of experience in the competition, it is definitely not a problem to be a starter in the LPL.

"But if these two official announcements are posted on Weibo, it will probably be quite popular..." Chen Ye studied.

On December 15, 2020, on the eve of the start of the spring season, EDG released a bomb in the final scene.

【I'm back】

【Coach.Clearlove takes off his suit, EDG.Clearlove returns to the canyon!】

Article 2.

【Coach Ji Xing reconnected!】

Abu and Mingkai all return!

Countless piglets burst into tears, but they didn't expect EDG to release such news.

Of course, many people can understand that it is okay for Abu to come back to coach, but this is a good thing, but when Mingkai comes back to be a substitute, it is purely a strong man to make up for the money.

【My youth is back】

[I hope the factory manager has a chance to play]

[There should be a chance. When the last two games of the regular season of the spring season are stable, the EDG ranking should be played]

[Hahaha, I hope the factory manager is on the way]

[Look at it again, the new version of jungle core is not easy to fight, and EDG may not be able to be so powerful]

All major forums are full of discussion, and starchers hope that EDG will continue to work hard and win the best championship in two consecutive championships.

...

Everyone at EDG has re-entered the busy training match and is preparing to welcome the opening match of the Spring Festival, which will start on January 9th, a week later.

EDG's first match was TES, which was obviously specially arranged by Teng Jing for the performance of the opening game.

Abu, who has returned to the coaching position, can be said to be painful and happy. To be honest, he still likes the coaching position, but only those who have worked as a coach know how hard it is behind the EDG coaching position is.

During this more than a month of vacation, LOL has updated three new versions. At this time, the version has officially reached the 11.1 version, and the S11 season has officially started.

After these three versions, countless information needs to be collected. A group of people from the coaching team stayed in the training room all day long, stacked stacks of data on the table, and then the entire training department held a meeting to analyze and discuss.

First of all, there are versions 10.25 and 10.26, which are basically weakening the strong heroes.

The first to be affected is Amumu. This hero who is extremely incompatible with Sun Flame has been weakened by two versions in a row, with W damage reduced, E skill damage reduced, and R control time reduced.

Then Yasuoyen weakened.

The current sheep sword is based on the critical strike rate and the two brothers can directly double the critical strike rate, which leads to the two brothers' combat effectiveness after the sheep sword is released.

Of course, it is gone now and it is cut off. This change directly cuts off the coordination between the passive and the sheep knife with doubled critical strike rate of these two heroes.

But the problem is that each critical hit is only 20% critical hit rate in the current version, which makes it necessary for the two brothers Yasuoon to have three to fully hit if they go through the endless stream.

Among them, there are also two pieces of Myth and Endless equipment that cost 3,400 yuan.

This overly bloated equipment route directly led to the two brothers' winning rate plummeting.

Then weakened the Little Fishman. This hero was too compatible with the Dark Night Reaper. After the magic equipment, the CD was too short and the damage exploded. Therefore, the fist cut the Little Fishman's growth mana from 57 to 37, which directly turned it into a hero with extremely lack of blue, forcing the Little Fishman player to add the amount of blue.

Of course, this series of changes is all about farts.

Because, in version 11.1, mythical equipment went through another round of balance.

First of all, the new hero, the Molten Iron Girl Ruier appears, which is a hard support with a very tough team-opening ability.

Then Panson reworked it, and the E skill can no longer block the tower, but at the cost, the ultimate skill gained 10/20/30% armor penetration, greatly enhanced.

Finally, the equipment changes are made. The equipment of the Sun Flame series has been reduced by 100 health points overall, the active attack power bonus of Thirst Blood has been reduced by 10%, and the damage of the Dark Night Reaper has been reduced. The heroes who were weakened some time ago have no compensation, which is sad.

Chen Ye perfectly predicted the designer's stupid behavior.

Fortunately, EDG has not adapted to the new version well - after all, from the actual situation, the current version is not much different from the World Championship version.

Anyway, the top lane is still playing with meat, and the jungler is still the core. It’s just that the bottom lane has changed, and the proportion of the bottom lane has become higher, but EDG’s bottom lane duo has the top abilities, so this version change is a good thing for them.

Abu looked at the training match won on the previous page of the tactical board and nodded with satisfaction.

...

January 9th at noon.

EDG took a bus to the familiar Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center.

This place is next to Hongqiao Airport, which is actually considered a suburb of Shanghai, but the league naturally has its own considerations, mainly to facilitate the audience to go back directly through the airport and the high-speed rail station after watching the game.

Everyone quickly entered the venue, handed their peripherals to the staff for inspection, and then began to go into the dressing room to put on makeup.

At 4:50 pm, the players from both sides gathered in the backstage and prepared to play.

Chen Ye looked at the TES team on the other side and heard that it seemed to be whispering there.

"369, have you practiced Nar?" Karsa said with his unique twists and turns.
