As the latest region to hold the qualifiers in the world, with the end of the LPL qualifiers, the list of S3 finals has finally been officially released. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

North America: C9, TSM, Vulcun

Europe: GMB, LD, FNC

South Korea: Najin Black Sword, Samsung Ozone, SKT

Southeast Asia: Taipei Orange Bears, Mineski

Chinese mainland Division: RT, OMG

Wild Card Division: Team GG

A week later, 14 teams from around the world will gather in Los Angeles for the 20-day annual World Finals.

And almost the day after the end of the LPL qualifiers, Riot quickly announced the group stage draw and schedule.

It is worth mentioning that RT is not named in this group stage group.

As the LPL seeded team, they were exempted from the group stage with North America's C9, South Korea's Najin Black Sword and Taipei Orange Bears to advance directly to the quarterfinals.

In other words, RT is now guaranteed in the quarterfinals.

Don't underestimate the quarterfinals of the S competition, but you don't know that in the previous life, the two major universe teams in China, WE and EDG, the old and new, did not until the S8 season, and the best result in the S series competition was the quarterfinals.

This is also the most embarrassing place for Lin Mu, he has already equaled the world's first person in the LPL in his previous life, the world's first ADC and the world's first card in his previous life, which is simply sad and joyful, and he can't laugh or cry.

"Captain, come and see, OMG they have already departed to the airport, and they also took a photo of pulling the national flag, so envious of them!" On the side, Xiao Hei suddenly screamed, he saw these photos from the news.

The fire god gave him a blank look: "What is there to envy, isn't there also a national flag embroidered on our battle robes, and you haven't worn it." ”

"Gone so soon? But speaking of which, this time is really rushed, and there are only a few days left before S3 is about to open. As soon as Lin Mu talked about this, he couldn't help but want to complain about Tencent, even the wild card area of the people played the qualifiers early to determine the participating teams, so they were not in a hurry, and directly made themselves and OMG the two teams with the least preparation time among the 14 participating teams in the world.

Fortunately, I helped all the team members get athlete visas in advance, and now the difference is just a few air tickets.

In this regard, I have to praise the efficiency of Riot, you must know that a year ago, WE and IG went abroad to participate in the S2 World Finals, but they were still on tourist visas, not to mention the trouble to handle, and there is a time limit.

Athlete visa, it is much more convenient.

"Little umbrella, they should be on the plane by now, right? I really want to go to the United States now, and I must be reminded to take more photos and come back and pretend to be forced when the time comes! Shu Hao was also restless, before he met Lin Mu, he never thought that he would be able to step out of the country one day, and go to the United States, which is known as the hope of mankind.

"Look at your little bit of interest, there will be opportunities in the future." Lin Mu sat firmly in Diaoyutai, he had already booked a ticket and was not in a panic.

Rather than spending time on these haves and haves at this time, it is better to spend more time researching the teams from other regions, especially those that are likely to be opponents in the knockout rounds.

At this time, Lin Mu was browsing a GIF that had caused heated discussions in the bar.

The GIF is very short, only three or four seconds, and it shows a battle between two people under the tower of the middle and high ground in the blue side.

If it is put into the future, even players who don't care about the game can recognize at a glance that these are the two calamities of Faker and Moon Wheel, taken from the 2013 ONG Summer Finals SKT and KTB Game 5 tiebreaker, known as the most classic wonderful picture in the history of League of Legends.

However, in this era, there are not too many people who care about LPL in China, let alone Korean games, and as soon as this picture came out, almost everyone was full of questions.

These people's questions can be broadly divided into two categories: First, who is Faker? Second, why are there two calamities in a game?

Who is the big demon Faker, if this question is placed in the future generations, it will definitely cause the contempt of all League of Legends players, and even classify the questioner as a primary school student, provided that he plays League of Legends.

However, now the name Faker is the first time that it has appeared in the eyes of domestic players, and it is not surprising that I have not heard of it.

In fact, not to mention ordinary players, even these teammates next to Lin Mu also know little about the Korean division.

As for the second question, why there are two calamities in a game, then it is even simpler, this is due to the special format of the Korean division, in their fan match, once the two teams play the final game, then the qualifying BP order selection will be canceled, and the blind selection will be staged during matchmaking.

That's why the same heroes will appear in official matches, which is easy to understand for League of Legends players who have played matchmaking.

However, it must be pointed out that this kind of blind audition system created by South Korea is not officially recognized by Riot, and there has never been a blind audition S-series in Lin Mu's previous life, so it is not of much reference value to really pursue it.

What is quite funny is that in the case of countless people questioning in the post, a stress warrior explained that he was tired of losing patience and finally erupted, and even began to give up on himself and doubt life, which finally became a meme that many people talked about.

Questioner: "Why are there two robberies in one game?" ”

Warriors: "Blind mode, please don't ask, watch more games." If you don't look at it, then please don't ask, don't use your ignorance as capital for you to pretend to know. ”

"Labor and management can't help it. Why don't you know, and you still have to ask, if you provoke labor and management, this will be in a state of rage, your mother, why is there a world like you who don't know anything, and you still fucking feel like you have discovered some big secret. ”

"Why are you asking, the ropes are ready, and if you don't apologize, I'm going to hang myself. Paralyzing"

"Why are you pretending? Why, exactly? ”

"Apologize, apologize immediately. Hurry up."

“………”

Even though he had read this classic reply many times in his previous life, when he saw this hot reply that had just come out again, Lin Mu still couldn't help but laugh and was amused by this cute guy.

Why two robberies in one game?

Maybe you have to ask Faker and Moon Wheel to get the answer.
