Chapter 622: Knockout
The SSW team that was broken with the summoning crystal in the lower lane was undoubtedly hit hard, and the UF team continued to choose the four-point push to create pressure on the SSW team in this situation, and Yasuo of the last wave of Shang Moze did not hand over the TP to join the team, so now he can still continue to be single-belted in the lower lane, while the remaining four members of the UF team continue to push the line on the upper lane and wait for opportunities to find opportunities to fight the big dragon.

However, the SSW team did a pretty good job in the overall defense, and it was difficult for the UF team to take out the SSW team's top lane second tower with the 500-yard range of Muluthiana without the big dragon buff bonus, but the UF team was obviously not in a hurry to advance, and with Shang Moze's Yasuo bringing a large wave of troops to the lower lane heights occupied by SSW, the pressure on the UF team on the upper lane was undoubtedly much less.
And with Xu Yanan's nightmare opening the ultimate, the four members of the UF team on the road directly crossed the tower and killed, and the scattered SSW team could not defend at all, Luo Xia and the two were directly under the tower in an instant Bobby was taken down by Mu's Lucian, and then the UF team took advantage of the victory to chase and pull out the SSW team's upper road highland tower.
"Now the UF team has a chance to win."
Commentary: Sunset looked at the SSW team whose tower had been broken on the road and couldn't help but say.
At the same time, Yasuo, who was on the road merchant Mo Ze, strongly counter-killed the enemy prince Nar under the encirclement and suppression of the three people, and was finally trampled to death by Li Haolin's enchantress using W skills, but the death of this wave of Shang Mo Ze is not important at all, the important thing is that the SSW team on the road to the highland tower was also pushed off by the UF team in a wave.
"The upper and lower highlands are all broken, and the SSW team can be said to have no skills."
Commentator Viper also looked at the SSW team, which can already be said to be in danger, and said.
Yasuo's single belt is already unstoppable, and the SSW team is even more difficult to deal with reasonably when the lower road highland is broken, and in this case, the SSW team also seized this hard-won opportunity by the UF team due to the too scattered personnel, and directly broke the second tower and the highland tower on the upper road, and Shang Moze, who was a single belt on the lower road, also forcibly killed two people with one vs three, which is amazing.
And after pushing off the SSW team's top lane crystal, due to the lack of troops, the UF team rushed directly to the big dragon pit to take down Baron Nash, and then a minute later, the UF team made a comeback and pushed the middle lane, and the SSW team was involved by the upper and lower super soldiers, and they were even more lacking in skills, unable to take into account the defense of the middle lane tower.
Although the SSW team, which was all broken in the three-way highlands, launched a wave of counterattack team battles, Mu who was already fully formed in equipment took over the game directly under the cover assistance of Kalmar and Bron, and forcibly pushed off the double front teeth of the SSW team after a wave of three kills, followed by a wave of crystal hubs that pushed off the SSW team to end the last game of the group stage.
"Let's congratulate Team UF for successfully defeating Team SWW for winning the final game of the group stage."
Narrator: Sunset and Viper stood up after Team UF successfully knocked out Team SSW's Crystal Hub, shouting excitedly to the crowd watching the match.
A team that has been created for less than half a year can actually beat the SSW team that has dominated the S-Series World Championship for four years, even if it is just one round of BO1, but it is exciting enough, after all, there are two of them, and if the UF team can seize the opportunity to beat the SSW team once, then it can definitely seize the opportunity to beat the SSW team many more times.
"Team UF actually won ......"
After seeing that the UF team successfully bulldozed the SSW team in one wave and won the game, Fuyi pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and couldn't help but show a slight surprise.
"The SSW team didn't give it all at all."
Although he has not officially played against the SSW team, Ma Jinlong still feels this very clearly, after all, the performance of the SSW team in this game can no longer be described as unsatisfactory, but really just pushed the game down.
"It's true that the SSW team has exposed a lot of problems in this game, and many of them are fatal enough, if the real level of the SSW team is only so high, I am afraid that its achievement of four consecutive championships is also full of water, and this is obviously an impossible thing."
On the side, Bai Yitong also followed suit, obviously not believing that the true level of the SSW team was only a little bit exposed in the game just now.
After all, last year's SSW team and BF team's BO5 game was indeed fierce, in which the SSW team was able to survive several times and finally successfully defeated the BF team by virtue of its strong hard power, it is precisely because of this that the performance of the SSW team today is obviously not in the state will surprise everyone watching the OB team.
However, the specific reason is nothing more than wanting to save strength and hole cards or deliberately showing weakness to make the UF team take it lightly in the future matches, and whatever the reason, it is clear that the UF team at this time has made the SSW team feel strong enough to threaten their position.
"Let's go back to China first, wait for the final finals, I think the SSW team and the UF team will give us a reasonable explanation in the end, and no matter which of these two teams wins the MSI championship, it will be beneficial to us."
Ma Jinlong stood up and said lightly, obviously no longer paying much attention to the outcome of this game.
After all, the worse the fight between the SSW team and the UF team, the more hole cards are exposed, the more hidden information he can get, and the sandpiper and clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman, Ma Jinlong doesn't mind the OB team becoming the last fisherman in this story, after all, no matter what you do, the result is the most important, no matter what the process is, but if there is no perfect enough ending, it is meaningless.
It is precisely because of this that even if some people see that the SSW team is not in shape in this game, they don't say much, after all, if it is true, even if the SSW team loses the game because of bad form, there is nothing to say, and the time of the game will not be determined according to the state of a certain team, and sometimes luck is actually a kind of strength.
The result of winning the game is more important than any other miscellaneous things and excuses.
As for some conspiracy theories after the game that the SSW team took money to deliberately lose to the UF team, it is simply nonsense among nonsense, the disadvantages of the SSW team losing to the UF team definitely outweigh the benefits, and the honor and dignity of the quadruple champion simply do not allow the SSW team to make such a meaningless move.
Of course, more importantly, whether the final game of the group stage is won or lost, it is not too important for the SSW team or the UF team, after all, these two teams have been 100% able to advance to the final four knockout rounds, and if the UF team really wants to spend money to buy the SSW team, they will have to play a role in the more critical and important knockout rounds.
The rumors stop at the wise, with the four teams of UF, SSW, QAQ, and GNR coming to Shanghai to prepare for the final knockout round, everyone's focus is on the final semi-finals and finals, and the final venue of this year's MSI Centralized Invitational Tournament is also set at the Shanghai E-sports Sports Center.
The date of the competition is May 18th to 20th, a whole number of BO5 games are carried out every day, the first two days are the top four to determine the champion and runner-up, and the last day is naturally the final battle for the championship, and because the points of the SSW team and the UF team are equal, so you can only choose to draw lots to determine the top four groups.
The final draw result is SSW team against GNR team, and UF team naturally has to play against QAQ team, and this group is obviously more beneficial to SSW team, compared from the performance of the group stage, the overall strength of QAQ team is undoubtedly beyond the first line of GNR team.
After two days of repairs, the knockout round of the MSI Mid-Season Invitational on May 18 begins, and the SSW team changed its previous laziness and forced to defeat the GNR team 3:0 to advance to the finals, while the UF team was surprised and began to prepare for the next day's match with the QAQ team, and it was obviously much more difficult for the UF team to solve their opponents as cleanly as the SSW team.
The performance of the QAQ team this year is indeed a little different from previous years, and this is actually related to the news that the ace jungler Li Qianqiu in the team is about to retire, and the increasingly depressed LMS division can be said to be only two or three big cats and kittens left in addition to the QAQ team, and the QAQ team can not hold on to this day without the presence of the great god Li Qianqiu.
Presumably, if Li Qianqiu really retires, then the QAQ team will probably be gradually forgotten by people like countless short-lived professional teams in the history of League of Legends esports, and slowly disappear from the eyes of the public, leaving only a little dispensable memory.
The QAQ team wants to fight for something before Li Qianqiu retires, but it is also to leave no regrets, but the dreams of one group of people are destined to become the regrets of another group of people, and Mu does not want to become a stepping stone for others to realize their dreams, so they can only step on others to reach the top.
"Welcome to all the spectators who are watching the game live or watching the game through the live broadcast, I am commenting on the sunset."
"I'm the interpreter of the viper."
"The teams participating in today's competition are the QAQ team from the LMS region and the UF team from the LPL region, so let's go directly to the ban\pick link."
With the commentary sunset and the viper in place, the battle between Team QAQ and Team UF is also in place.
The UF team located on the blue side directly banned the three heroes of Clockwork, Blind Monk, and Qianjue, after all, the mid-laner player of the QAQ team is extremely good at clockwork, and as for the performance of the jungler Li Qianqiu in the previous group stage, it is also very eye-catching, especially the jungler blind monk who is far ahead of others in that game, which makes people feel even more numb.
And the QAQ team also directly banned the three heroes of Xia, Tsar, and Wind Girl, and then the UF team directly snatched the tried and tested jungler nightmare in the previous group stage on the first floor, and the performance of this strategically significant hero in the game can indeed be said to be quite good, and it is also very good, and it can be used with a variety of lineups.
Then the QAQ team backhanded and won the Ice Maiden and Rambo two very strong magic damage heroes in the team fight, and the UF team selected the two heroes Galio and Morgana to use against the middle and upper combination of the QAQ team, but the UF team obviously didn't care about these and directly took the extremely protective Lulu as their own support.
After completing the first three selections, the UF team continued to remove the mantis and the wheel mother, and the mantis still got a small boost from the fist in the last version, so it is a good chance to be on the professional stage, plus the QAQ team, the team battle combination of the Rambo Ice Girl, is easy to play a lot of residual blood for the mantis to almost harvest, as for the wheel mother, the QAQ team has won the most shooters in the previous group stage, and the advantage of this shooter is that the ability to lead the line is strong, That's why the UF team will directly ban it and not give it a chance to develop in a mixed line.
And then the QAQ team gave the ember to the ban, and then the last ban position was given to the sword demon, obviously the QAQ team is not ignorant of the UF team, otherwise it would not have thrown the top single sword demon that Shang Moze had practiced hard in the spring game into the ban position.
However, this did not have much impact on the prepared UF team, after the QAQ team took out the EZ on the fourth floor, the UF team directly selected the captain and Delevingne on the last four or five floors, and the audience also erupted in surprise at the UF team's behavior of directly taking down Delevingne.
After all, although Draven has been in the professional arena several times after being strengthened by Riot in the previous few minor versions, there are probably not many of them that can play effectively, and the UF team can indeed be said to be quite unexpected in this situation.
And the reason why Draven came up with Draven is actually Mu's helpless move, after all, after the current version of the critical hit equipment has been weakened, the status of many ADCs has dropped a lot, and late-stage shooters like Varus, Cold Ice, and Big Mouth are also thankless even if they are selected.
Especially in the current version, when the rhythm of the game is very much watched, it is tantamount to killing a hero like a big mouth, this version is no longer the era of the incense burners, but belongs to the world of more fast-paced shooters like Lucian and Delevingne.
After the UF team completed the final selection, the QAQ team did not hesitate to choose the male gun as their team's jungler at the last moment, although the jungler male gun has been weakened by Fist because it is too strong in recent versions, but there is no doubt that after the revision, the position of the male gun in the wild area has always been among the top three.
"The lineups of the two sides have been chosen, the UF team lineup on the blue side is Captain, Nightmare, Galio, Draven, and Morgana, while the QAQ team lineup on the red side on the other side is Rambo, Male Gun, Ice Girl, EZ and Lulu."
Commentator Sunset said after the final selection of the QAQ team.
