Chapter Twenty-Six: Esports Feast
During this time, in addition to the Jace fever caused by God and XIU, the much-anticipated e-sports feast also began.
In the 2014 League of Legends World Championship, a total of 16 teams from Europe, North America, South Korea, China, wild cards, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan were divided into four groups of ABCD to conduct a four-group double round-robin BO1 points match, and the top two teams in the group qualified, entered the quarterfinals, and then entered the BO5 knockout round.
This time, Huaguo's summoners really have great expectations for the three teams in the LPL.
In May 2014, OMG lost to ALL Star in Paris, losing 0-3 to SKTT1, and fell to SKT again after the royal family.
This is another failed experience of e-sports to resist South Korea, and even some people shouted the slogan that after all, it is 3 to 0, and I can do it. Although those grumpy brothers are very vicious, they love and hate deeply, and national server players still hope that LPL can fight for their breath.
This time in the global finals, the national service said that it did not want to be reduced to a background board again!
Taipei, at 17 o'clock on September 18, the opening match was played in a strong hand.
EDG vs. SSW.
Both teams did their homework before the game, with EDG banning the opposing mid lane assassins Yasuo and Cassadine, as well as the support bull head, on the blue side. SSW also banned Mouse, Ryze, and Wind Girl one after another.
In terms of selection, EDG continued its own style and grabbed the big tree first.
However, in this game, EDG's big tree was targeted badly by SSW and sent away heads in a row, which led to the perfect development of SSW's laner Rambo in the early stage. Imp also showed his super strength in the bottom lane, and with the cooperation of Nami, not only was he not suppressed by EDG's Lucian Hammerstone, but he played an advantage in the bottom lane.
Of course, before this game, because of a food video, Nami has been ganked by Wanwan's beef noodles.
Eventually, Imp develops into the boss of the game, and under the protection of the old man of time, he completely crushes EDG's hopes in the wild area near Dalong.
The loss of this game also cast a haze over LPL in the S4 Global Finals.
In the follow-up competition, EDG struggled to enter the quarterfinals and was eliminated 3-2 by the royal family, also from the LPL region, at the Busan venue.
In the group stage of Singapore, the OMG team had a bumpy road, and in the second round of the match with Fnatic, 50 drops overturned Fnatic and kept their chance of qualifying. After that, OMG was like a phoenix nirvana, sweeping away the decline in the first half and showing what the dark forces should be.
On October 6th, OMG gave White Shield a cheerful BO5 and swept White Shield 3-0!
This is not only the first time that the Chinese team has defeated the Korean team in a world-class competition this year, but also entered the prediction that "if you defeat NJ White Shield, you can win the S4 championship", OMG's king spirit is fully revealed.
However, on October 12th, in the S4 semifinals, Huaguo's OMG and the royal family reunited, these two rivals who have been fighting for two seasons have quite the shadow of IG and WE at the beginning.
In the case of the royal family in the first two cities, OMG won two games in a row. The final score was 3-2, and the royal family once again blocked OMG, who was almost at the peak of its voice and form, from the S4 finals.
This kind of thing seems to have happened in S3, and people can't help but feel that there is a bond between the two teams of "both Yu and Liang".
However, that's often the brutal side of professional esports.
People will only remember the winner who won the cup in the end, and the assumption of the loser is not recognized.
At the beginning of the S4 World Finals, Lee Zixiu also kept watching the game. He was a bystander, mentally counting the familiar scenes.
However, in this life, his mood fluctuates far more than in the previous life.
At that time, he was a luxury.
At the moment, he is an expectant!
Every professional e-sports player hopes to be on such a world-class stage, communicate with the whole world, perform on the biggest stage, and prove themselves!
Let people of different colors and languages shout their names!
Make yourself the center of the world of esports!
On October 19, 2014, at the Korea-Japan World Cup Stadium in Seoul, the audience followed the countdown on the big screen, and the whole venue was shaking, which was undoubtedly a worldwide exchange.
The Dream Dragon Band sang the theme song "Warriors" live, and the passionate music once again ignited the atmosphere of the venue.
When South Korea roared out the names of the two teams and told their stories, the entire esports world was watching that stage, which was the mecca of esports players, the highest point!
However, this event is undoubtedly another dream-shattering experience for Chinese players.
Facing SSW, whose personal strength and technical and tactical level are better in local combat, the royal family once again dreamed of the final.
The LPL team was reduced to a world-class backdrop and was beaten 3-1 by the sticks.
The world runner-up in two seasons means that the League of Legends professional team of Huaguo LPL is not strong enough, and it needs to be stronger.
On the Internet, some fans who were 'too expectant' evolved again and became trolls.
They counted the mistakes made by the LPL team, counted the mistakes of the players, and played various nicknames. In the end, the trolls came to the conclusion that I could do it too.
At this time, who is the most arrogant in the fan group, yes, it is Han Za.
The Korean players are really powerful, this cannot be denied. But the Han Zao is talking all day long, arrogant and unstoppable, and the majority of fans are really angry.
However, there is really very little material for them to refute.
Talking about the swept white shield?
The white shield has been sprayed into a muggle mallet in South Korea, and a lot of bladed dead rats have been sent by crazy fans. Even, many domineering sticks think that these people should jump into the sea to apologize.
Being swept by the weak LPL team is simply a shame for the stick clan!
I heard that the White Shield team has often come to collect scrap iron recently.
Why?
Because the blades sent by fans are tons and tons, Bai Dun is ready to use these blades to sell iron for some won, hoping to buy back stronger players.
Although the stick people scolded them, they really loved them!
Therefore, it really doesn't make sense to use the white shield to refute Han Za.
Han Za didn't even mention the white shield, they always had three stars and ten sons in their mouths, powerful SSW.
Nima, the majority of fans said it was so painful.
These Hanza are so annoying, so annoying.
It would have been very sad to lose the championship, and these people are still beeping in their ears like flies all day long, and they really want to slap them to death.
However, the Han Za people have too much material now, and it is not easy to refute it at all, they are completely on the highest point.
As a result, some Huaguo LPL fans began to complain.
Why can't there be a ridiculously strong player in Huaguo?
One knife is one LCK, one shot is one Samsung.
Wasn't it quiet at that time? Isn't the whole world quiet?
However, where can we find such players, we really don't have them in LPL!
If there are such players, how dare the Han Za be arrogant?
However, that is really an extravagant hope, and it may not appear in this life.
For the vast majority of Huaguo LOL players, S4 is really a year full of regrets.
This year, many of the first generation of LOL players retired.
This year, I was overwhelmed by the Korean team.
This year, Strawberry left with a smile, and the former WE fell apart.
This year, the S4 World Finals OMG dramatically fell to the iron hooves of the royal family again, and South Korea defended the S-Series championship in Seoul as they wished.
……
Many LPL fans are wondering:
"Dare to ask where the road is?"
