Chapter 1150: The Relationship Between Father and Son
The LPL schedule is actually relatively late in all major regions around the world.
Therefore, when the third seed in the LPL region is finalized, the seeding places in the other major major regions are basically finalized.
Among them, the Korean team's side, in Li Mu's view, is the biggest difference from the previous life.
In the S8 season, the No. 1 seed on the Korean team's side is Team KT, and the No. 2 and No. 3 teams are AFS and GEN respectively.
However, the changes in the league in the past two years have changed the situation on the Korean side.
Instead of falling into decline after MSI, Team KZ continued their strong run in the summer and made it to the World Finals as the No. 1 seed.
KT hasn't changed, they've always been strong, so it makes sense to enter Worlds as the second seed.
The biggest change is the No. 3 seed.
The Samsung team retired because of the head of An, which caused the team to lose its team spirit.
The bubble buff also disappeared, so SKT, who was thinned out by the lineup, managed to win the bubble match with resilience.
This is the point that makes Li Mu feel the most.
If you think about it, SKT can come out in this configuration, so the third seed of this year's South Korean team is too unhanded.
Now Li Mu still remembers the situation when the Black Emperor's troll pillar stuck faker alive.
But one thing to say, faker's state is really good at this time.
"KZ is a team...... Their top laner Khan is really indomitable, and to be honest, his performance in the playoffs to the finals is a bit amazing. ”
In the training room, Xiao Shu said with the evaluation form of strength analysis.
As for the No. 1 seed KZ, although they think that it is not as strong as KT, after Xiaoshu's analysis, it is found that Khan has not fallen into self-isolation because of the Asian Games, but has become more and more fierce.
Judging from the data shown by Khan in the finals, Khan's strength fluctuation index is even comparable to Li Mu's performance.
Although the intensity of the competition is different from one division to another, the opponents are different, and there will be a slight difference in the score of the assessment.
But this also illustrates Khan's personal strength in disguise.
"Isn't this a stimulant?"
Xiangguo touched his chin and smacked his lips and said.
"Probably not, as far as I know, this year's World Finals seem to be proposed by South Korea, to add doping testing."
Brother Feng thought of the news he got not long ago, and he was also thoughtful.
"This is aimed at our Lao Li, right?"
Uzi yawned and then smirked, "Then after the test, it was found that there was not a drop of urine in the stimulant." ”
"Turtle, that's a bit of a mess."
Li Mu didn't speak, just took the table of Xiaoshu's statistics and looked at it in detail, thinking about something while reading.
The table not only counts the fluctuations in the player's individual strength, but also the many heroes that Khan has selected in the playoffs.
Li Mu took a general glance at these heroes and found that most of the heroes Khan chose in the playoffs were the kind of heroes who focused on operation.
Mainly play to the line ability.
And KZ's tactics are also tilted towards Khan.
"It stands to reason that it shouldn't be so iron-clad, but it is not denied that the effect is indeed very good in South Korea."
Brother Feng said.
"Is the footage of the LCK finals still there? I'd like to recap. ”
Li Mu suddenly spoke.
"Yes."
For the next three days, Li Mu stayed in his room and did not participate in training.
Three days later, Li Mu yawned, came out with dark circles under his eyes and invited the people of the club to have a big meal, and went back to sleep well for a day and a night.
Another day passed, and it was the day they set off for Korea.
The draw ceremony has ended.
Sac was placed in Group A.
In the same group are the second seed VIT from Europe and the second seed MAD from the LMS region.
When they saw this grouping, the mood of the Sac people did not fluctuate in the slightest.
I even want to laugh a little.
SKT is going to play the play-in.
If they make it out of the Play-In Tournament, SKT will most likely be divided into ...... according to the schedule and the rules of entry to the Play-In Tournament
Well, Group A.
Anyway, KT is in the same group as RNG, and this has already been determined and cannot be changed.
The first seeds, KZ and IG, are in a group.
SKT's face turned a little green when he saw this grouping.
Because according to the schedule, they are in Group A of the play-in round.
The schedule will also end early.
Unless they choose to be eliminated by another team in the play-in, they will basically be the first to qualify.
Then they will be naturally assigned to group A, in the same group as their father for more than two years.
Previously, they were the fathers of the LPL team.
It's good now.
Sac has been their dad for almost three years.
Seeing this grouping, faker poured down a bottle of soda in one go.
He didn't show anything on the surface, though.
But my heart was very sad.
It's one thing to have faith.
In the previous World Championships, Faker's confidence comes from the strong cooperation between their teammates and their relatively good individual ability.
But this year's faker has a bit of a B number in his heart.
Personal ability?
Hehe, they have three emperors!
As for teamfight coordination?
Among these three emperors, there is a black emperor who specializes in playing trolls and using pillars to card him!
In previous years, they still had some confidence.
What's in store this year?
Faker is not a person whose heart is easily distracted.
But this year......
Time waits for no one.
Soon, the play-in tournament began.
Although I know that if I enter Group A, I am likely to be abused when I face Sac.
But considering the strength of the other two teams in Group A, faker thinks that if his team can defeat the other two teams in Group A, then it may be good to qualify second in the group?
Among the three teams of CN, except for his fear of Sac, the other two teams feel very average.
IG plays in a mess.
Faker is aware.
RNG's personal strength is not outstanding, and it is similar to them, as long as the Black Emperor does not card himself, and his teammates do not make some mistakes that are too excessive to outrageous, then it is not impossible to play.
Therefore, the play-in tournament still has to break through, for SKT, playing the play-in tournament is not a bad thing, they can improve the run-in of their own team as much as possible through the play-in tournament, which can be regarded as a warm-up in advance.
As it turned out, the teams in the play-in tournament were indeed spicy-eyed.
SKT is also a South Korean team, so there is no problem playing at this level of intensity.
So, they made it to Group A.
When all the groupings were finalized, the domestic audience also discussed it one after another.
"Sac is the champion again this year, hey, it's not interesting."
"By the way, if Sac can win this year's World Championship, then it will be a third consecutive championship, right?"
"I met SKT again, tsk, it's a pity, faker is no longer the faker of the year, and his teammates are not the teammates of the year."
Two years ago, there was also a belief that Sac might not win the championship.
But this year, there is a lot of singing on the Internet.
Li Mu looked at the wind direction of the Tieba forum, but he was a little inexplicably worried.
It seems that this year's Worlds will not go as smoothly as in previous years.
