Shen Lang and others were very clear about the remarks of the outside world, but they just ignored them.

In the words of promise, if the audience's predictions were really that accurate, ET would have been the world champion a few years ago.

used to be ET, and the number of fans was terrifying.

Instead of adding to these remarks, it is better to train more, and if you are not favored by others, then you should be optimistic about yourself.

After the World Championship group came out, several players in the team obviously worked hard, and the more they were not favored, the more they wanted to prove it to others.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, the World Championship was about to begin.

ET everyone will be triggered to Seoul, South Korea, where the play-in tournament will be held.

Although it has nothing to do with ET, at the request of the coach, everyone still honestly watched all the games without landing.

At first, everyone didn't think about it.

In the play-in tournament, except for RG, everyone else is a younger brother, okay.

But after a few games, this is not the case.

There are still quite a few teams in the finals.

"I feel like G2 should be the one in Group B."

Promise looked at the screen and spoke.

It's a match between G2 and SUP, and G2 has just started the game, and G2 has a big advantage.

After a few minutes, it was a completely one-sided slaughter, and the difference in strength between the two teams was too great.

It's really strange that with such strength, G2 is actually the third seed.

Not only G2, but also C9 in Group C, plus RG in Group A, the play-in tournament lost its suspense from the beginning.

In fact, before that, G2 had won the European LCS division four times and maintained its dominance for a time.

As can be seen from the historical record, the strength of this team is not very weak, and RG is not the only one who has played abnormally in the summer season.

"To qualify, we have to win G2."

After watching the game, the promise was a little heavy.

I thought that their grouping was average, and they couldn't beat GEN· G, it's okay to get a second qualifier.

Now it seems that it is difficult!

There is also a fierce man in the group, G2.

In his subconscious, it was still the Korean team GEN· G strength is a little stronger, so it is said that winning G2 can be promoted.

"Some teams that look weak are not weak, and in the same way, some teams that look strong don't look strong."

Shen Lang suddenly became unfathomable.

"What do you mean...... Samsung is not awesome? ”

Xiao Zhao asked in surprise.

"The strength is still there, but it may not be as powerful as you think."

For a long time, professional players in the LPL have an inexplicable fear of LCK.

In their subconscious, the LCK players are strong and the team operation ability is strong, no matter which group, the Korean team will always be the most eye-catching.

It never occurred to them that the LCK might not be as strong as they thought.

Shen Lang knows very well that S8 is a turning point, and the playing style of the LCK club is actually a bit outdated, and the dominance is no longer what it used to be.

On the contrary, the LPL region has risen.

For all this, Shen Lang didn't tell his teammates, because no one would believe it.

When the group stage is over, it is estimated that they will naturally be able to feel it.

They don't know how good they are without a few fights.

……

After the play-in round, all the contestants moved to another city in South Korea, Busan.

This is the first time Shen Lang has come to Busan in his life, and if it weren't for the movie "Train to Busan", he wouldn't have known that there was such a city in South Korea.

E-sports is one of the pillar industries in South Korea, and the atmosphere of the game is still very good, and there are still a lot of people watching the game.

Before the competition, it is customary to be the opening ceremony.

To be honest, standing on the stage, Shen Lang didn't understand anything, just heard a male host roaring.

Standing next to the host, his ears were about to explode.

Fortunately, the pain didn't last long, and the group stage finally began.

ET's game was scheduled for the second game, and taking advantage of this time, the coach quickly arranged tactics.

"Our opponent in the first game is VIT, although the opponent's strength is not very strong, but we still can't take it lightly, the first game, strive to get a good start."

Nofe admonished the team members, and then told them about VIT.

"What this team needs to pay attention to is their top laner cabochard and jungler Kikis, their top laner is a veteran player, the game experience is very rich, pay attention to his caution, as for the jungler, this person has a strong ability to find opportunities, promise to pay attention to the ......"

From Nofe's statement, Shen Lang roughly understood that this was a relatively mediocre team, and the playing style belonged to a more stable one.

"In that case, let's ban Shen, this hero is very difficult to kill."

Shen Lang suggested.

Although he is confident that he will blow up the cabochard, he still needs to pay attention to it, and every game in the finals needs to go all out, because the opponent is weak and take it lightly, which is the most stupid behavior.

"Okay, ban and be cautious, Shen Lang tries to play an advantage on the road, and you can take a strong hero ......"

The first game ended quickly and it was ET's turn.

The crowd encouraged each other for a moment, and then they took the stage.

On the other hand, the commentary of the LPL is also ready.

"Hello everyone, I'm Haokai!"

"I'm Longhair!"

"I'm your Sister Zhou...... Shuyi. ”

Two official commentators are paired with a well-known anchor, and the usual configuration on the game.

"Welcome to the audience, this is the League of Legends S8 World Championship group stage match site, the two sides of this game are ET and VIT ......"

Shuyi opened the regular first, and then the other two commentators began to analyze.

"To be reasonable, ET is the champion of the summer tournament, and we should have no problem winning VIT in the LPL ranking."

Longhair smiled and spoke.

Comparatively speaking, it is a little easier to narrate international matches than LPL matches.

If it's an LPL civil war, the commentary has to be a little scruples, and some things are not easy to say.

But in the case of international competitions, don't say anything, support your own team and it's over.

"Don't let it go, VIT is the second seed in Europe, it's not so weak, it's still a little difficult for ET to win."

Haokai is a new commentary and is more conservative.

"If nothing else, I want to let the Korean audience see the power of small waves now, this should be Shen Lang's first time participating in the World Championship."

"When you say this, I'm also curious about the reaction of the audience, Xiaobo has given us too many surprises in China, and now when we go abroad, it's the LCK's turn to be shocked."

"In that case, let's guess how long the game will end, okay, the loser is treated, and when you go to Korea, you will definitely have to try their special kimchi."

"Thirty-five minutes."

"Thirty minutes."

Both Longhair's and Haokai's guesses are reasonable, and the current game rarely lasts until forty minutes later.

When it was Shuyi's turn, her eyes rolled and she said a surprising number.

"Fifteen minutes ......"
