Chapter 31: Want to play against the practice match champion team.
Bonus Ko-fi chapter thanks to Kitty!
Today too, the esports circle was as lively as always.
The brawling between esports fans was no longer anything new, and there had also been many arguments between professional players before.
But a professional player who, after joining the team, publicly shaded another team before he had ever played in a single competition—this really was the first fucking time that had ever happened.
If this were any other person or any other team, Jian Rong would've long since been cursed to the heavens.
But out of everyone, this shady player was Soft.
Upon learning about this, the esports fans' first reaction wasn't anger or suspicion. Instead, it was an excited and even a bit hopeful—is he going at it again??
And this team also happened to be Squid, the team known for having the worst reputation in the LPL. Who knew how many players had been belittled by the people on this team while they cracked jokes. As a result, right now the other teams' fans shared the same sentiment as a certain image posted in Jian Rong's comment section:

This comment was liked and pushed to the forefront by a crowd of other teams' fans who came to spectate. On the other hand, the comments flanking that one were—
[What trouble did my son cause now? It's not easy to start insulting if I don't know the situation, who's gonna give a summary?]
[That's it? That's it?? You're not even going to go through his family lineage?? Is Doufu your sworn brother, that's why you're giving him so much face??]
[Consider this as Dad begging you, please start flaming. I'll help you pay that 10k yuan, is that still no good?]
[I'll pay 100k, you can unleash a few more insults, send me your Alipay]
[How interesting, is it not a fact that they easily beat you guys in the practice match? All they did was accidentally destroy the Nexus. What, afraid that other people will see that trash match score? If you're gonna be a sore loser, then don't schedule practice matches, OK?]
[No way no way, even a brainless team like Squid has fans?? What, is it because it's been too long since someone played a practice match with your team that they even forgot what the rules were?]
[Is the point of a practice match to win? And also TTC was clearly practicing a new bot lane team comp ah?]
["Easily"? All of Squid was using the team comp from their summer season knockouts, someone who didn't know better would think that last night was the spring season finals. Just that still took 48 mins, only Doufu can spout some BS like 'winning easily.' And he also constantly goes around shading other people's appearances and bodies. Despite the way that his horse face looks, I have yet to see anyone tell him to scram back to the zoo?]
[@YY-Doufu your team won the practice match, but your [] is gone, worth it?]
"Never mind about the rest, at least this Weibo post didn't have any profanity, so it isn't at the point where it would be fined." Ding-ge supported himself using Yuan Qian's chair, looking like he would collapse from anger at any moment. "—but why did you go and like that 'worth it' comment??"
Jian Rong was playing ranked, and he didn't turn around. He said, very insincerely, "My hand slipped."
Ding-ge: "........."
