The S4 Grand Finals are less than two weeks away.

September 6, Mercedes-Benz Cultural Center in Shanghai.

As we all know, the anniversary celebration has always been the biggest annual event of the League of Legends in China, and this third anniversary celebration is no exception.

still found Zhu Zhen as the host, still invited a star to support the venue, and still prepared a series of performances including the COS show.

However, everyone understands that everything at the opening ceremony is just an appetizer, and the venue of nearly 20,000 people can be full, not to listen to Tencent leaders read data and put on a show.

"Next, let's welcome the 5 teams participating in this S4 selection tournament, they are RT, EDG, OMG, old godfather and E!" In Zhu Zhen's shouting, five teams rose to the stage one after another and appeared in the audience's sight.

It is worth mentioning that the teams participating in this qualifier have changed from their previous lives.

In the previous life, IG was the runner-up in the Spring Split, which made it possible for them to enter the qualifiers even if they finished last in the Summer Split.

According to the rules of the qualifiers, the five teams of the spring championship and the summer championship and the second season will compete for three S4 places.

However, this time IG, the spring game stopped at the semifinals.

According to the rules of repeating the summer rankings, their place was replaced by E.

E is ranked 5th in the summer season, one place above IG.

This is also the reason why E did not explode as much as in their previous life after the regular season rankings came out, at least they still have a glimmer of hope.

Compared to the S game, the playoffs are not worth mentioning at all!

In the words of 60E, there must be a blessing after the catastrophe if you don't die, and E's life should not be extinguished.

"Okay, thank you Zhu Zhen, today's opening ceremony is really grand, I didn't feel so strong last year, but this year standing here I really have a very scared feeling, you know? League of Legends is a terrifying game, and since the day I started in the industry, I never thought a game would reach such heights! After taking the microphone, the doll quickly took control of the audience.

Although it is a cliché, and even has an obvious sense of praise, but this is the power of this guy, he entered the role in a few words, and also emphasized his identity as an e-sports person, and suddenly shortened the distance between himself and the audience.

has been the first brother of LPL for so long, and he is not just an uncle.

"I deeply understand what the doll said, League of Legends has changed the esports industry, and I believe no one will question this." Today's Xiaocang specially wore a white dress that highlighted his figure, and his career line was quite majestic.

As a former female professional player at the same time as SKY, she has a lot to say about the changes and developments in the esports industry in recent years.

"Straight to the point, we have three games today and all five teams will play."

"Yes, let's talk about the competition system first, due to the tight time, all the competitions in this S4 selection tournament are BO3, I believe everyone already knows that this year's competition system has been overhauled, and we have a total of three participation places in LPL this year, including a seed place."

"Although this year's seeded teams can no longer skip the group stage and advance directly to the quarterfinals like last year, according to the new format, the seeded teams from each major region will not meet in the group stage, which is still important for us teams, after all, usually the seeded team represents the strongest force in a region."

"Speaking of which, this year's seeded team on the Korean side seems to be SSB, and this team has played RT once in CG, but if they meet again, I don't think it's easy to say...... I believe friends who have watched OGN know how terrible the growth of these two teams of Samsung has been this year, and it is not easy to win against them. ”

"Yes, the most unexpected thing is that last year's strongest division in South Korea, SKT, didn't get the S4 ticket, they lost to SS and Najin White Shield in the bubble match, and the former Great Demon King has fallen!"

"As for the European and American side, I don't feel that the threat to us is not very big, it is worth mentioning that the LMQ team composed of five Chinese of us has been fortunate to win the No. 3 seed in North America after a season of hard work, this team has familiar players such as Shenchao, they will also appear in the S4 arena, and everyone will see an all-Chinese team with the title of LCS, and it is a little exciting to think about it......"

"It seems that the S4 slots in other regions of the world have been decided, and now we are left with the game not finished, right?"

"Uh...... It seems to be the case, but this time I still have to explain to you that the reason why the playoffs have been played for so long is that in addition to the fact that the players need time to rest and adjust to play in the best condition, there is also a version problem, because we have to wait until the finals version is online, which is a force majeure factor......"

"We know ......"

In the sound of dolls and others throwing pots, the game began.

The BP screen appears on the big screen.

The blue side is EDG, and the purple side is RT.

As scheduled, the first match of the qualifiers will be the spring/summer championship battle for the S4 seeded team.

According to the format, the winner of this match will receive the S4 direct train and be seeded, while the loser will fall to the next round and compete with three other teams for the remaining two spots.

The importance of this game cannot be overstated.

"EDG banned Yasuo, Poodle and Jace, RT BAN dropped the big tree, bull head and praying mantis, the big tree has actually been weakened in the finals version, the ultimate can only last 10 seconds now, but it is still too strong, second only to the bull head in the upper lane!"

"This version of the new hero Nar seems to be online, right? Is it disabled, well, it's really gray out from the selection interface......"

"EDG grabbed the time, this is a bit unexpected, but RT also won the two OP heroes of Ruiz + Lucian, and it doesn't feel like a loss."

"EDG's second and third choices, win the prince + angel, wow, angel + time, needless to say, this must be a security system, ADC is basically either a big mouth or a small cannon rat."

"Then RT is definitely going to have a strong face lineup, and I feel like this is going to be a battle between spear and shield...... Wow, widow? RT showed a widow in the third hand, this is the signature hero of our factory! ”

"Is it a blind monk or a widow? Selected, widow! ”

"My God, Xiao Qi really doesn't give any face......"

The director rolled his eyes, and I seemed to see the familiar death gaze.
