If the S Tournament is the final exam, then the Mid-Season Championship Tournament is the midterm exam.

The analogy is quite apt.

This large-scale LOL tournament, which has been held since 15 years, is now in its third year.

The participating teams are from the spring champions of each major region from all over the world, representing their respective regions.

In fact, since the end of April, the play-in schedule for this year's MSI has begun.

Those who need to play in the play-in tournament are generally those teams in the independent sports region, which is commonly known as the wild card team.

There are also regions that did not perform well in last year's Worlds, such as the LMS and NA regions, and their teams also need to play the Play-In Tournament to get in.

In the end, after many selections, GAM, TSM and FW successfully broke through the play-in round and entered the back.

Next, it is the main match of the group stage of MSI.

The format is very simple, there are six teams in total, WE, SKT, G2, TSM, FW, GAM, and they need to play other opponents in two rounds in the next five days, and then determine the four teams to enter the knockout stage according to the points.

On May 11, the group stage officially began.

As the champion of the LPL Spring Tournament, WE is shouldering the burden of the entire LPL region in this MSI.

And because they performed so well in the league this year's spring tournament, first defeated last year's world runner-up SSR, and then defeated RNG with a score of 3:0 in the final spring final, so that countless people had high hopes.

Many believe that they have a good chance of beating SKT in the mid-season championship game to claim this prestigious title.

However, on the first day of the race, WE did not perform as well as it should.

In the first game against FW, they won.

In the second game, against TSM in the NA division, they lost.

You must know that in most people's minds, LPL is currently only located under the LCK, the "second division" of the world.

This name was played by SSR in the finals last year.

The team that lost to the LCK is understandable.

But TSM, that was the team that didn't even make it to the quarterfinals at last year's Worlds, or just came in from the MSI Play-In Tournament, how can you tolerate losing to them?

For a while, the controversy continued, and WE began to suffer accusations.

And the next day, against the Vietnamese team GAM, the WE team lost to the opponent and lost again.

Now, it's going to be fried directly.

"Ho ho ho, can't even beat the wild card team?"

"Please, get out of here!"

“Condi？ Son of the Dragon? How many dragons have you lost in the past two days? ”

"I'm laughing at this garbage at night!"

"Is my brother-in-law acting? What kind of B thing did you hit? ”

"There is only one 7 sauce in LPL, which is my 957? Would you rather match it? ”

"60E can't jump anymore?"

"WE is still bull or not?"

"Come, let's shout out loud: Congratulations WE!"

“.......”

After suffering two consecutive defeats, WE was subjected to abuse from all sides, overwhelming!

Their current situation is also largely related to the too arrogant behavior of some WE fans during this time.

It's normal that after the team gains power, there will always be some extreme fans who make a big fuss, and at the same time frantically belittle other teams, pulling a lot of hatred.

For example, some stalks, such as "LPL has only one Wei Shen, that is, I Su Hanwei", "LPL has only one 7 sauce, which is my 957", etc., these words are easy to offend people.

And now, after they were defeated, the situation was completely reversed in an instant, and those who had been ridiculed by them before would definitely take this opportunity to turn back and fall into the ground.

The harder you blow when you are proud, the harder you will be trampled on when you are disappointed later.

This has become a common phenomenon at present - winning madness, losing resistance.

Of course, for those who really love the LPL region, Team WE will definitely feel sad when they play on behalf of the LPL, and they will definitely feel sad when they suffer two consecutive defeats at such a disadvantage at the beginning.

......

There are a total of six matches in one day of the group stage.

After the first three games, during the break, the barrage in the major live broadcast rooms began to brush up.

"Start 1-2, hit a hammer! Let's go back to washing and sleeping! ”

"I'll tell you a terrible news, the last game of the day, I'm going to play SKT."

"Hehe, this cliff has been beaten!"

"Nima! Labor and management don't want to see it! ”

"To be reasonable, it's better to let the SSR come!"

"At least it won't lose to North America, lose the wild card!"

"Sword God! Where are you? I miss you so much! ”

"Sword God, please! Come and save a Ha LPL! ”

“......”

Then, it was time for the second half of the race.

At the end of the break, the director cut the screen back to the commentary scene in the SH studio, and changed the three commentators again.

Two of them are old acquaintances of the audience, Doll and Miller, the golden pair.

I saw the guest sitting on the far right commenting on the outside, wearing a black suit outside, a white shirt inside, and a red tie.

After seeing this "newcomer's commentary", the barrage was full of question marks!

"Welcome back...... Hello everyone, I'm Narrator Miller. ”

"Hello everyone, I'm a commentary doll."

"Hi everyone, I'm Sword."

"Okay, we'll explain the next three games." After the doll finished speaking, she smiled at the strange person next to her, "Hey, let me ask Sword, how does it feel to sit in the commentary seat to explain the game today, are you nervous?" ”

"Hmm...... Luckily, I wasn't too nervous. Lin Han muttered, "It's just feeling...... It's fresh. ”

Since this time Msi's commentary was carried out in the SH studio, and he didn't go abroad, the LPL league officially invited Lin Han and asked him to be the guest commentator on the next day.

In all fairness, Lin Han has always sat in the player's seat to play games, but today it was the first time he sat in the commentary seat to explain the game, and the sudden change of scene identity made him feel that this was a very peculiar experience.

"But seriously, the two of us are happy to be able to work with Sword on the commentary stage today." Miller said excitedly.

Commenting with the current top professional players like Lin Han, in the process, he and the doll may be able to understand something new by communicating with him.

At the same time, the barrage in the live broadcast room has long been fried!

“？？？？？？？？”

"! Sword God ????? ”

"Why did you get there?"

"Why am I in the wrong live room? Isn't this the official live broadcast room of the event? ”

“WDNMD！ The sword god is really here! ”

"The third runner-up is on the list, you are spicy?"

"Who is this commentator on stage? How come you've never seen it? ”

"Wearing a suit and a small tie? It's good! ”

"Spirit guy, uninvited?"

“......”

Lin Han's sudden appearance really surprised the audience, and at the same time, the wind direction of the barrage also changed.

The atmosphere that was originally lifeless due to the defeat is now lively again in an instant!

As soon as I saw this guy appear, the audience knew that the effect of the show was there!
