Chapter 21: Official Announcement
Besides, there are still internal conflicts in Ueno.
All I think about is TheShy, TheShy.
I'll wrap a chicken neck around your neck!
"Karam's build, I don't feel like I've noticed any changes after version 9.10 at all."
Chen Song scrolled the mouse and carefully looked at IG's recent draft picks and the values from the version update.
The new champion Yuumi has arrived, Conqueror/Guinsoo's Rageblade have been heavily nerfed, Riven/Vayne have been cooled down, the pace of the game has slowed down, the late game is becoming more important, and AD carries and utility supports continue to be buffed.
Previously, I only glanced at the update content briefly, unlike now where it's so detailed.
If this were today, Chen Song would immediately have a clear idea of what would happen after reading it.
The buff to AD carries is definitely good news for IG.
This will undoubtedly greatly enhance JackeyLove's abilities, allowing the team to leverage TheShy and Ning's early-game advantages in subsequent matches, and then take over the game once JackeyLove has developed.
This powerful trident is unstoppable, killing anyone who stands in its way.
How did it end up like this?
"The Summer Split is about to start, it seems we need to hurry up and solve Ning's problem."
After thinking for a while, Chen Song came up with a less-than-honorable idea.
But given the current extraordinary circumstances, he can't afford to worry about those things right now.
"진송,쉬는시간에도이렇게열심히공부하고있니?뭘보고있니?"
(Chen Song, you're still working so hard during your break. What are you looking at?)
The sudden sound in his ear startled Chen Song, making him tremble all over.
"쉬는시간에자료와판본내용을보다."
(Taking advantage of the break time to review the materials and version information.)
Chen Song smiled at Mafa, who had suddenly appeared, and explained.
"League of Legends? You play it regularly?"
Mafa's voice was full of curiosity.
What do you mean I play it all the time?
As a League of Legends tactical analyst, isn't it only natural for me to play League of Legends?
Could it be that all that data was fabricated?
"You're never too old to learn. Versions will be updated, and only by playing them yourself can you provide players and coaches with more accurate data."
"Then you can study it first." Mafa glanced at Chen Song with an appreciative look, then turned and left.
Just as Chen Song was engrossed in researching, IG's official Weibo account quietly posted a message.
[#IG Esports Club Roster Change Announcement]
Effective immediately, Chen Song has officially joined IG Esports Club as a tactical analyst for the League of Legends division. Welcome Chen Song to the IG training family!
His addition will greatly benefit IG's coaching staff in terms of draft picks and training strategies. We look forward to him integrating into the team quickly and using his professional skills to help IG reach new heights in future matches!
Thank you all for your attention and support for IG Esports Club!
#IG#League of Legends#
Within minutes of IG's official Weibo post, various comments appeared below.
Initially, the comments section was filled with congratulations and well wishes.
However, as some people with ulterior motives revealed information, negative messages gradually appeared in the comments section.
Since winning the S8 championship, IG has undoubtedly become a top team in the LPL, and any move the club makes will attract a lot of attention from fans.
Especially after losing to TL at MSI, more and more voices of doubt appeared on various platforms, including comments on the coaching staff.
In fact, they are even more concerned about the coaching staff's movements than the IG club itself.
Therefore, those with ulterior motives quickly uncovered Chen Song's background.
[Breaking news: Chen Song, the newly joined tactical analyst for IG, is the same one who was previously fired by Zhu Kai at LNG.]
Is this for real? Is this melon (referring to a gossip story) authentic?
It's absolutely true, it's the same person.
What is IG doing?!
[The esports industry is so huge, they can't find any tactical analysts, huh? They're even hiring people fired by LNG.]
[@Wang Sicong]
I think IG is finished too.
Seeing the growing public opinion, the staff responsible for Weibo operations at IG did not dare to make a decision on their own and immediately reported the matter to Su Xiaoluo.
Hopefully, he will step in and take control.
They had encountered similar negative public opinion before, but this was the first time they had encountered such a strong reaction.
This is the negative impact of increased attention.
As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility.
If this were one of the bottom-ranked teams in the LPL, let alone adding a new tactical analyst, even changing a player wouldn't attract much attention.
Manager's office.
Su Xiaoluo leaned back in her chair, scrolling through the comments section of the message that IG's official Weibo account had just posted, her brows furrowed:
"It's obvious that someone is deliberately stirring up trouble," he said, taking out his phone and dialing Wang Sicong's number.
"I've already seen it on Weibo."
Wang Sicong's voice came from the other end of the phone: "I'll handle the rest. Focus on preparing for the Summer Split."
"Yes, Principal."
......
LNG Manager's Office.
There were two people in the manager's office. One of them was wearing a polo shirt with two buttons undone; it was Zhu Kai.
The other person, dressed in a shirt and trousers, was the manager, Zuo Wu.
"I really didn't expect that Wang Sicong would actually take a liking to the person we didn't want."
Zuo Wu muttered something under his breath, his tone filled with regret.
"What do you mean?"
Zhu Kai noticed that Zuo Wu's expression was a little off, so he got up, walked to his desk, and peeked at the computer screen: "IG just released an announcement?"
"About Chen Song."
Zuo Wu looked at Zhu Kai: "That's the one we fired."
"Did he go to Instagram?"
Zhu Kai's tone carried a hint of surprise.
"That's right, tactical analyst. It's clearly written in the announcement, I'm absolutely certain it's correct."
Zuo Wu turned her chair around to face Zhu Kai: "What do you think?"
Zhu Kai sneered: "I think IG really has no one left to use. They even need someone like this who only talks about stats and challenges the coaching staff all day long."
Zuo Wu did not respond immediately.
He glanced at Chen Song's name on the screen again.
Completely opposite to Zhu Kai's thoughts, he subconsciously had another idea in his mind.
If I had known this guy would be scouted by IG, I should have let him stay at LNG for a few more days and then put him up for sale at a random price. At least I could have recouped some of the losses.
Unlike now, not only did I not get a single penny, but I also had to pay out of my own pocket a penalty for breach of contract.
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became.
......
Chen Song was completely unaware of the public opinion on Weibo.
He was completely immersed in his own world, focusing intently on studying the information of various teams.
Before we knew it, it was already 20:00 PM.
The athletes and coaches returned to the training room almost exactly on time.
Manager Su Xiaoluo also came along.
"Chen Song, come here for a moment."
Su Xiaoluo stood in the middle of the training room and introduced with a smile:
"Chen Song, as you all probably know, will officially become a member of IG as a tactical analyst in the coming days."
