Chapter 825: Eat shit, fist!

Although Perkz didn't care much about his ranking and fully admitted his overall strength was far inferior to Liang Yan's, being able to beat Liang Yan on this official list made him unable to resist a mischievous pleasure!

The fist really knows how to disgust people, hahaha~

The G2 group eventually didn't come over, but instead went to the other side of the restaurant.

Easyhoon looked at the other party sitting in a fairly distant corner, furrowed his brow, and said to Liang Yan: "I think this ranking also makes no sense; we were the champions at the Mid-Season Invitational, and given your performance, there's no reason Perkz should be ranked above you."

"It doesn't matter; this ranking is basically just the fist's one-sided evaluation, it has some reference value but there's no need to fully believe it." Liang Yan lifted his bowl, finished the porridge in a couple of sips, picked up his tray and walked toward the dish return area, saying indifferently.

Xiao Duan watched his back and whispered: "Yan-ge, are you angry?"

"No, you're overthinking it." Sima Laozei also picked up his tray and left.

"Ma-ge is also angry." Xiao Duan said firmly, looking at Sima Laozei's back.

Fu Lan Duo was still unhappy, but Liang Yan himself felt it didn't matter, so he didn't want to say anything else, and couldn't help teasing Xiao Duan: "Of course, how can a support like you rank above Ma-ge? If it were me, I'd be angry too."

Xiao Duan gave an embarrassed hehe.

Actually, Xiao Duan never thought he could make the list. As it turned out, he not only made it, but the fist even ranked him above his own AD!

Ma-ge being a little unhappy is totally normal.

But the fist really has discerning eyes—even though I hid it so well, it was still exposed!

This list really has high value!

But Xiao Duan knows his partner; Ma-ge isn't the petty type, and he definitely wouldn't hold a grudge over a so-called Top 20 ranking.

……

Discussion sparked by the Top 20 continues to ferment online.

The Top 20 is something the fist releases every year, with people praising and criticizing it each time, but this year's list has provoked even hotter online discussion than before.

Someone tallied the entire list by region: ten from the LCK made it, seven from the LPL, three from the EU, and NA and LMS…… had none.

Of course, the most discussed are still the top few.

Liang Yan ranked second—enough to brag about for half a year on someone else, but on Liang Yan, the comment section is full of question marks:

【Although the S6 FMVP was AP, the Mid-Season Invitational championship was won by Jiao Shen leading VG, and G2 didn't even make the finals—so why second?】

In the CCTV incident a couple of days ago, the haters who were stirring things up went crazy and quickly banded together:

【Vitamin C, cut it out—still bragging about the Mid-Season Invitational championship? Runner-up KT didn't even get an S7 slot—any value?】

【I'll just say it—someone's championship is just gotten by clinging to a big thigh.】

【This second place is full of water; objectively, I think Faker should be second, Jiao Shen at most third, or even lower.】

The haters spouted sarcastic remarks while not daring to go all out—after all, even if only one-tenth of their 20 million Weibo followers were real fans, their fighting power would still be terrifying.

However, overall, most LPL netizens are still satisfied with this list, after all VG's popularity in the LPL is unrivaled—saying the average LPL viewer is a VG fan isn't an exaggeration—and all five VG starters made the list.

【All VG starters are on the list—no doubt about its value!】

【Ma-ge only 20? Push him up!】

Just that the fans of RNG and EDG can't smile; two traditional powerhouses, each with only one person on the list, compared to last year, that's downright bleak.

【RNG only has Xiao Gou? Xiang Guo and xiaohu aren't qualified?】

【The fist SB doesn't explain.】

【EDG only has Tian Ye—did this list accidentally leave out my Qi Jiang?】

【Forget it, Changzhang—I think Scout actually should have made it.】

Moreover, among VG fans there's some controversy: Caveman is 18th, Smlz 20th, Xiao Duan ranks two places above his own AD, which just doesn't look right.

【Xiao Duan ranking higher is fine—just watch the games closely and you'll see; Xiao Duan really does more in day-to-day play!】

【Are you sick? In bot lane, do you understand AD vs. AD? If Ma-ge doesn't step up, can a single support like Xiao Duan hold the bot lane? If Xiao Duan were really that strong, he would have shown it last year; the fact is Ma-ge is already famous while Xiao Duan was stuck at the playoff cutoff last year.】

【Don't argue—what's there to fight about among teammates?】

【I say the fist probably didn't do this on purpose—trying to stir up VG's bot lane relationship?】

【Great—when Ma-ge gets angry, he goes all out!】

However, if we talk about the biggest gripe of LPL netizens, without a doubt it's a very unfamiliar ID to them: Hansama.

This guy actually ranks 14th, one spot above Uzi!

Who the hell is this guy?

Before today, the vast majority of LPL netizens had never even seen this ID!

Then netizens checked the S7 event official website:

Asian…… European…… the website says he is the absolute mainstay of the EU region's second seed MSF, and can even be said to be the reason MSF could become Europe's dark horse.

Netizens suddenly understood.

【An absolute mainstay? That really does have something.】

【I'll just say it—strong ADs are all Asian!】

【This guy is kinda handsome, but his looks don't seem Chinese; probably from some small Southeast Asian country.】

【He's indeed impressive, but I don't think he deserves to be ranked above my Ma-ge!】

【Please enlighten me—what achievements has this person earned?】

【They've only just debuted—what achievements could they have……】

Actually, it's not fair to blame netizens for being ignorant—MSF this team only just emerged in Europe this year, Hansama's performance is indeed eye-catching, but to say he's pressing Uzi and Ma-ge down to 14th, overseas viewers basically don't buy it.

As for European netizens, they're naturally overjoyed. Although only three from the region made the list, two are in the top ten, and the first place is Europe's king!

Although many European netizens themselves think this list is biased, in many people's view Firrrrrre actually deserves the top spot more, but getting such hype from the fist for their region's top player still feels great.

By contrast, LMS and North American netizens are truly miserable—many people burst into tears the moment they saw the list.

Supposedly one of the five major regions, yet an official ranking gives them not a single spot out of twenty—whether it's the LCK-dominating Flash Wolves or the North American cosmic warship TSM, not a single starter is to be found, this is damn……

LMS netizens: "【Are we really a major region? Just lump us in with the wild card!】"

North America irritable old bro: 【Eat shit, fist!】
