Chapter 100: A Barely Satisfactory OMG
Chapter 100: A Barely Satisfactory OMG
On the second day, the remaining two teams, 17 and OMG, arrived in London one after another.
Located in the city of London, NetFish Internet Cafe provided free training facilities for the three teams, offering them VIP treatment with private rooms.
However, during training, many Chinese fans from London rushed over. Some were fans of 4am, some were fans of Weishen, but the majority were fans of Jiang Siming.
This was because a few days ago, a video of Jiang Siming slaughtering those disgusting streamers on the US server had already been uploaded to British websites, attracting a wave of foreign fans to Jiang Siming.
Moreover, many female fans came over as well, making Weishen and the others envy Jiang Siming.
Although they couldn't disturb them during training in their private rooms, these fans had made a difficult trip, and they completely blocked the area outside the private rooms.
After training, Jiang Siming and Weishen suspended their training and went out to meet the fans.
The two of them acted separately, each giving autographs and taking photos with fans.
However, Weishen felt a bit sour because all the female fans went to Jiang Siming's side, leaving him with only male fans, not even a chubby girl.
On the other side of the private room, Xiao Shizi kept signing autographs for the fans and even stopped training, saying he would take the fans out for a meal.
Seeing him being surrounded by fans with a happy smile on his face, Jiang Siming couldn't help but worry about him.
Because when he was back in his hometown, Weishen had mentioned that OMG never participated in training matches. Instead, they livestreamed every day, playing with random players and chatting with girls.
Looking at his somewhat arrogant expression now, Jiang Siming speculated that he might be slacking off.
This was also human nature. It was easy to gain honor, but it was difficult to maintain it without being lost in the honor and praise.
He was very much like Weishen back then, winning many championships even before the start of Season 5, but he already had an arrogant attitude, even thinking about which championship skin he wanted in the country.
After Season 5 started, Weishen received a wake-up call, so now he had become even stronger and more humble than before.
Jiang Siming didn't say anything about Xiao Shizi's behavior, he turned around and went back to the room to continue practicing with his teammates.
They only had one day for training, and the next day the competition began.
The competition lasted for a total of six days, with three days of group stage, one day of elimination, and two days of finals.
The schedule was extremely tight, with no free days in between. Unless your group directly made it to the top eight without playing the elimination round, you would have a day off. R
The tight schedule was also considered by the organizers to keep the players continuously engaged, maintaining their feel and facilitating their performance.
Apart from OMG's perplexing performance, the other teams performed quite well.
The 17 team, making their debut in the global tournament, showed great courage. Although they didn't win a chicken dinner, they managed to break into the top ten every time and got many kills.
They ranked third in points.
In addition, the other national teams were also very strong.
The strongest were the European teams, and the North American STK, TS, Liquid.
These three top esports powerhouses performed remarkably, occupying the first, fourth, and fifth positions! Very high rankings.
The Korean teams were equally strong, with AFF, RGS, VSG, ranking high as well, with AFF even taking the second position.
Other national teams were relatively weaker, such as Thailand's AG, France's Enry, Malaysia's INC, and so on.
There were even teams from the Hong Kong and Macau region, AHQ and MP5, which showed mediocre performance for now.
But overall, this World Championship could be said to have no weak teams, the difficulty was beyond imagination.
Weishen also expressed great pressure. Although his 4am team had won the PCI championship, it was in TPP mode.
TPP had been canceled after this year, and their strength in FPP was not stronger than any of the top ten teams. Of course, they couldn't be considered weak, but it was difficult.
After returning to the hotel, the club coach called an emergency meeting to discuss the strategy for the next day, emphasizing the need for stability.
This made Jiang Siming hesitate. They hadn't even played in the domestic league, and they had missed plenty of opportunities to collect fragments.
Now, in this World Championship with a higher burst rate, they actually had to play conservatively?
Jiang Siming refused to accept it, saying that he would decide based on the situation at that time. He would not hesitate to kill.
One day flew by, and in the afternoon of the second day, the competition between Groups B and C was about to begin, and it was 4am's time to shine.
One hour ahead of time, everyone had already finished tuning their equipment.
Each team had four computers, spaced quite far apart, and there was a referee watching behind each team.
This was Jiang Siming's first team match, and it was right into this kind of world league competition, facing off against top players from around the world. Jiang Siming wasn't nervous at all; instead, he was itching to showcase his skills.
