Chapter 228: Boomerang (Middle)

【Traitor! Get out of LPL!】

【On the surface you call each other brothers, but secretly you sell RNG's tactics—you really are something.】

【I was still puzzled back then: how could such a poor Snake have money to go abroad for training like RNG? It turns out they went to become traitors.】

【I want to ask how much money G2 gave you, making you so shameless as to do something like this?】

【I said, with RNG's strength, how could they possibly lose 0-3 to G2? Turns out you're stirring up trouble, hehe, with traitors like you around, LPL will never amount to anything.】

【Doesn't the ACE Alliance care? Can a club like this stay in LPL?】

After a night of fermentation, public opinion completely exploded.

The wind direction completely reversed.

RNG fans, after a bit of brain-filling, easily fabricated a clear storyline. In their imagination, it went like this:

A couple of months ago, G2 came to China, had contact with Snake, and it's very likely they already discussed S6 matters, secretly making some kind of treacherous agreement—for example, if Snake could get an S6 ticket, G2 would provide the poor Snake with an overseas training opportunity, but Snake would have to give G2 information about LPL teams.

Snake successfully entered the S6 World Championship.

During the group stage, Snake predicted that RNG was most likely to top the group, so they desperately scheduled practice matches with RNG, collected all kinds of RNG tactical information, then turned around and sold it to G2.

No wonder G2 was so arrogant in the group stage, daring to challenge RNG saying "let's meet in the quarterfinals," and desperately creating chances to draw RNG in the quarterfinals.

It turns out it was precisely because they obtained detailed RNG information from Snake!

Shameless!

Traitor!

Insider traitor!

Deserving death!

Get out of LPL!

Send all of Snake's people to prison to eat prison food!

Such voices filled every corner of the Chinese-language internet.

The fighting power of RNG fans is the most terrifying on the whole net; they won't allow anyone to be unaware that RNG suffered such a vicious betrayal, won't allow anyone to be unaware that RNG lost to G2 not because of strength but because of underhanded off‑game tactics, and won't allow anyone to be unaware of how angry they are.

They spread conspiracy theories everywhere, beating drums and gongs, rolling around and throwing tantrums, utterly insane.

Some even posted big-character posters in various offline places—for example, on university walls and bulletin boards, in the poster spots of esports internet cafés, and some even rushed onto the lecture stage with a loudspeaker, shouting at the whole class……

Yes, RNG fans of this era are just that crazy.

One comment after another, one video after another……

Zuowu burned with rage, his head dizzy and swollen, his temples throbbing, angered by this bunch of clueless idiots who invert right and wrong to the point of nearly having a stroke.

He adjusted for a long time before finally suppressing his surging anger temporarily, sat down at his computer, gritted his teeth, and opened WeChat to contact Ka Lao Si:

【Hello, Mr. Ka Luo Si, Snake is currently facing some difficulties; I believe you've also noticed the online public opinion in China. Regarding this, I want to issue a statement to clarify things, but some of it concerns your club, so before making it public I need to obtain your consent, blah blah blah……】

Ka Lao Si replied almost instantly, not even asking for details, his reply simply meaning: "Go ahead and do whatever you want, put effort into it, best to go big!"

Zuowu immediately opened Snake's official blog backend, quickly edited a statement, and posted it:

【To all those concerned about the incident:

【Regarding Snake's previous overseas training activities and the two matters of conducting training matches with Royal Never Give Up (hereinafter RNG) during the S6 World Championship period, our club makes the following clarifications and statement:

【The location of Snake's overseas training was indeed G2 Club's training base, and Snake did indeed receive G2's sponsorship—G2 provided our team with free accommodation, meals, and training facilities.

【In fact, Snake's communication with G2 began at the start of the summer season; Island player reached us through some connections, after which the two teams engaged in a long period of cross‑server online exchange matches (also called training matches); this is why G2's China delegation came to observe our club offline, and the two teams have a foundation of friendship.

【While Snake's training matches with RNG during the World Championship were all initiated by RNG, and RNG voluntarily paid for the training. Indeed, each of our training matches with RNG was charged; this is a reasonable and legal transaction, fully voluntary on both sides, with RNG manager's transfer records as proof—please see the attached images at the end of this article.

【Additionally, according to statistics:

【From Snake's first training match with G2 up to now, the win rate has never exceeded 30%, and it actually gets lower later on; I have made the recorded data into pictures attached at the end of this article for viewers to check themselves;

【Whereas Snake's win rate in training matches with RNG during the World Championship exceeds 70%, and this is likewise recorded as proof—please see Attachment 3 to verify it yourself.

【In summary, the online rumor that our club collected RNG's tactical information by actively scheduling training matches with RNG during the S6 group stage is pure nonsense; as for the gossip that Snake sold RNG tactical information to G2, that's even more laughable.

【Lastly, a frank remark: I believe the person who betrayed RNG's information, causing their loss in the quarterfinals, truly exists in this lifetime.

【That's all.

【Our club finally warns all rumor‑mongers: please immediately stop spreading rumors, insults, and abuse against our club; the internet is not a law‑less zone, online rumor‑mongering is also illegal; if you persist in your ignorance, defaming the innocent, our club may resort to legal weapons to protect its rights!】

After Snake released this statement, it truly caused a storm.

The truth is actually that RNG voluntarily paid, spending over ten‑plus ten thousand to hire Snake as a sparring partner?

The truth is actually that RNG's training matches were thoroughly crushed by Snake in various flashy ways, and Snake was then harshly educated by G2—doesn't that mean RNG is essentially G2's grand‑disciple?!

This reversal gave hundreds of millions of Chinese netizens a thrilling spectacle, sighing in admiration; even the year's biggest drama isn't this exciting—it's simply superb!

RNG fans were all left dumbfounded.

After all the fuss, it turns out this is just a boomerang slapping our own faces—what a painful sting, utterly embarrassing.

And those who even in real life passionately stir things up, considering themselves the righteous hardcore fans, are truly socially dead—they dare not lift their heads when walking, and even a glance from a stranger makes them wonder if the person is thinking:

"Oh, it's this idiot..."
