Last night was a night of ups and downs for Chinese e-sports fans. The annual League of Legends global finals came to an end. Although the SN team failed to hold the championship trophy for the LPL (China Division), the progress of the "little lion" is visible to everyone. S10 is not the end, the future of the teenager can be expected. As the third seed in the LPL division,
SN broke into the World Championship for the first time and won the runner-up. It should be said that the overall performance is good. As the "male mother" in the team, Hu Shuojie habitually encourages his teammates and always smiles. But after the game last night, he lost his old smile in an interview, his eyes lost their brilliance, and the corners of his habitually raised mouth no longer raised. However, as the only veteran in the team to participate in the World Championship 6 times, he still set an example for his brothers, resisting tears, and did not cry. The defeat of
this time was too great for the SN team and Hu Shuojie himself. As a veteran of the team, the world championship has been his goal since 2013. In the S3 global finals, Hu Shuojie, who entered the World Championship for the first time, met the strong enemy SKT team from South Korea and ended the quarterfinals. The blood of the newcomer and the ravages of powerful enemies made him full of regrets. After entering the World Championship three times, all fell into the group stage.
Hu Shuojie was unwilling every year until he came to SN in 2018 and entered the world finals this year. Fate is always joking with him, and this year's World Championship has a unique meaning for him. In the semifinals, he and his old teammate Hong Haoxuan (ID: Karsa) became opponents. The good brothers who had wanted to win the championship together could only choose one of two cruelly. In the end, Hong Haoxuan's TES team was defeated. After winning them, Hu Shuojie promised to take Hong Haoxuan's dream of winning the championship. The result is full of regrets.
He said in the pre-match propaganda that he wanted to win the championship this time so that he could be remembered by players in the history of League of Legends. After all, only the five players who won the championship each year are the final winners. "No one will remember who the runner-up is."
However, this time everyone still remembers that there is a champion Hu Shuojie in the SN team who will take care of his teammates. S10 will not be the end, S11 strives to keep the champion in China.
