Chapter 119: Bug Fixing Team Gets Overtime

Congratulations G2! Three to zero!

Congratulations G2, as expected; even though G2 made personnel changes in the third match, UOL still had no chance.

It looks like G2 won the third match purely through operations; such a versatile G2 is terrifying, and UOL is no match for them!

At the same time, we also congratulate CyanideFI for winning this match's MVP; his performance in the early-game two counter-ganks and later team fights was outstanding, and this honor is well deserved.

Speaking of which, the MVP of the first two matches was also from the jungle position, so I personally hope the post-match interview can invite both jungle players, because I feel that from the start of the season to today, CyanideFI's performance has been getting better and better; I really want to know what happened to this legendary veteran to make him regain such vitality and even push further.

Is that so? Then congratulations to you.

Really?

That's right; the two players who will be interviewed after the match are Firrrrrre, who won the MVP of the first two matches, and CyanideFI, who won the MVP of the third match.

Wow!

Cut the chatter, let's hand the screen over to the stage!

The scene switches to the live venue.

The two G2 junglers each hold a microphone, standing left and right of the interview host Laure.

Welcome to the post-match interview, everyone. I'm today's interview host Laure. It's an honor to invite the two MVP players onto our stage for the interview. Can you first greet the live audience and the viewers watching on screen?

Hello everyone, I'm G2 jungler CyanideFI.

Hello everyone, I'm G2's substitute jungler Firrrrrre.

What?

Laure was stunned on the spot.

The audience below also erupted in an uproar.

The livestream chat was filled with question marks.

In the past, when Liang Yan gave interviews introducing himself, he always said "I am G2's jungler"; this is the first time he fully stated his in-team position.

Perhaps many people have forgotten.

But strictly speaking, Liang Yan's identity is indeed that of a substitute.

So Laure was left awkward on the spot.

Lao Li then smiled helplessly, raised the microphone to his mouth, and proactively said:

Don't take it seriously, Liang is just joking with you; actually we are in a rotation relationship, there is really no substitute.

Ah, I see...

Laure secretly let out a breath of relief, feeling sweat on her back.

She quickly adjusted her breathing and put on a fresh face for the camera:

Okay, thank you both. I have a few questions I'd like you to answer. Fir... uh, CyanideFI player, you first: after returning to the match stage over a month later and earning MVP in such an important match, how do you feel right now?

Lao Li's answer was formulaic: basically he was happy, thanked the coach for the opportunity, said his personal contribution was negligible, and that winning the match was thanks to everyone's effort.

Then Laure turned to Liang Yan.

And what about Firrrrrre player?

She looked at Liang Yan, smiling, raised the microphone, and silently prayed: 'Please, don't pull another stunt, old girl, I'm scared!'

Then Liang Yan spoke:

Actually, I'm not too happy.

Laure's face changed instantly, and she hurried to interrupt:

Okay, thank you very...

Because something unexpected happened during the match.

Liang Yan ignored her and, under everyone's gaze, continued with this sentence.

Laure really wanted to cut him off forcefully, but since Liang Yan had already started, he successfully aroused everyone's curiosity.

So Laure could only go along and ask:

Then... what exactly is it?

Liang Yan curled the corner of his mouth—

When this scene appeared on the live broadcast, all the Riot staff watching the live stream felt a very bad premonition.

And even worse, their premonition came true.

It's a bug, a bug in the game.

What?!

Laure was greatly startled.

You had a bug but didn't say anything then, and only brought it up on the interview stage after the match?

Are you doing this on purpose to mess with me!

……

Twitter's hot list and Weibo's hot search list are similar, but the former focuses more on the real-time growth speed of topic discussion, making it more timely.

Thus, while the on-site interview was still ongoing, a newly emerged topic shot up to the top of Twitter's trending topics within just a few minutes:

#G2 Match Bug#

It's normal for games to have bugs; in official LOL matches, there have been many cases where bugs caused matches to be paused or even rematched.

But saying there was a bug only after the match, and it being confirmed true, is the first time in history.

Moreover, Liang Yan now has enormous popularity in the Ou Mei region; when he publicly revealed this truth on the post-match interview stage, the topic inevitably exploded.

Another factor further boosting the topic's heat: the death caused by the bug was Liang Yan's only death in the entire match.

【@Riot, is this the professional team that made the world's hottest online game?】

【Bug Fixing Team Gets Overtime】

It's enough to make one go bald.

I've said before, the world is a huge shoddy troupe.

Rematch! We must have a rematch!

I support a rematch (snickering, actually just want to see G2 crush UOL again).

The topic's popularity continues to surge.

And Ka Lao Si's video posted on his personal Twitter later caused the topic to completely explode:

To cheer him up, we specially found a KTV.

But he seems not to like this kind of place; could it be because the girls aren't pretty? What do you think?

In the video, Liang Yan sits in the corner of the private-room sofa, arms crossed, face stern, showing obvious disdain toward the accompanying singing girl who leans over, making the girl a bit embarrassed.

It's worth noting that in the Ou Mei region, KTVs with private rooms are rare; instead, the bar rotating-singing mode is more popular, meaning a bar has a small stage, and customers queue up to take turns singing on stage.

And similar business KTV venues in Asia are usually only found in areas where Asians gather, and most of the staff there are of Asian descent.

To find such an Asian-style business KTV, Ka Lao Si went to great trouble.
