Chapter 181: It's On! First day against C9
Seoul Incheon International Airport.
AS and his party were packing their luggage, and faintly outside the airport, they could see some people waving NGO flags, no doubt sent by the organizers to pick them up at the hotel.
Due to the geographical location, it only takes one or two hours to fly from China to the capital of South Korea, although it is a bit troublesome to pass the customs, but after all, everyone has a visa, and everyone is very easy to get on the bus to the hotel.
The accompanying Korean translator is also translating the specific rules of the contest for Liu Songnian and others along the way, basically the official NGO staff will translate a sentence.
It turns out that the format of this tournament is not the kind of quarterfinals, semifinals, and direct finals. Rather, in order to play a few more games, for the sake of a trench, the double-elimination system adopted, the winners' bracket and the losers' bracket were set up.
It was divided into two groups, AS, SKT, C9 and GMB were the first group, and the other four were the second group.
According to the schedule, the first match of the first round of the first group on the first day in a few days will be AS against C9 from the United States, if this one wins, AS will enter the second round, and C9 will enter the lower bracket. The other game is GMB against SKT, and if SKT wins, then even if SKT advances to the next round, GMB enters the lower bracket.
If AS wins, then AS advances to the semi-finals and SKT falls into the lower bracket. Then there's the crucial lower bracket final: SKT against either GMB or C9.
To put it simply, if you can win two consecutive games in the group stage. You can advance directly. But if you lose the first game, you will enter the lower bracket, and you must win two sets in a row to advance, and if you lose again in the lower bracket, you will go directly to Korea for a day trip, and you can go home. And if you win in the first game, but lose in the second game, you will also enter the lower bracket, but as long as you win in the lower bracket, you can still advance.
It might be a bit complicated to explain. Anyway, it's two consecutive wins to advance directly. If you lose one set, you have to win two games in a row to advance, and if you win one set and lose another. In the third set, you have to win to advance. A bit of a BO3 feel.
Although the prize money in this tournament is huge. But mainly because the sponsors are more tigers. The accommodation treatment for the players is still average, and only a four-star hotel is arranged for the players, but the people in AS are already very satisfied.
At least. The WIFI in this hotel is brilliant. Playing League of Legends is not stuck at all~
And although the hotel is 4 stars, there is still a public pool, and now the weather is fine, you can go into the water to swim.
Because the official viciously arranged a room for two people, in the eyes of the coach, Nakano's tacit understanding is the key to determining the direction of the whole game, so Liu Songnian was arranged in PEASE's room.
After packing up his luggage in the hotel, Liu Songnian secretly gasped, fortunately there are leggings and can go swimming, I forgot that there may be a swimming pool in the hotel, and I knew that I would bring swimming trunks. Alas, my brain has been too messy lately, so let's take a swim once in a while to relax.
"By the way, why didn't you read the commentary?" Liu Songnian suddenly asked.
"Commentary? This kind of unofficial game, the commentary is temporarily found in the country to set up a broadcast station, who will go to the live broadcast, plane tickets, visa procedures or something, expensive and troublesome. PEASE SAID HELPLESSLY.
"Okay, I'm going for a swim." Liu Songnian grabbed his little pants and towel and prepared to leave.
"Wait." PEASE HURRIEDLY STOPPED HIM, "I SEE YOU HAVEN'T TRAINED MUCH RECENTLY, YOU HAVE PLAYED 6 OR 7 GAMES IN THE PAST FEW DAYS, AND YOU ARE STILL KNEELING, AND IT SEEMS THAT YOU HAVE WON A GAME ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE HEAD WELFARE BUREAU." You've been in a bad state lately, so come with me to double rehearse and practice your feelings. ”
"Don't do it, I'll go take a break first, and I'll talk about it when I come back." Before leaving, Liu Songnian didn't forget to ask, "Do you want to be together?" The picture of the pool looks very nice. ”
"I'm still training in a single row, and I haven't punched in Sardinia for a long time, so I practice my feel." PEASE said helplessly, "The competition is approaching, you have to practice quickly, don't just care" Before he finished speaking, Liu Songnian had already turned around and left.
"It's not scientific, LIU doesn't usually do this, is there something on his mind?" PEASE SHRUGGED HIS SHOULDERS AND IMMEDIATELY CARRIED THE LAPTOP IN HIS BACKPACK TO THE TABLE, PLUGGED IN THE KEYBOARD, MOUSE AND CHARGER, PUT ON HIS HEADPHONES, CONNECTED TO WIFI, AND BEGAN HIS SOLO JOURNEY
When he arrived in the locker room, Liu Songnian found that there were swimsuits to buy here, and now he also found a box of nondescript underwear he brought and stored them, and then picked out a pair of swim trunks to buy and put them on, and walked into the pool.
At this time, it was already dusk time, and there were many people who came to swim, although there were many foreigners, but Liu Songnian was not surprised at all, many of them he was familiar with.
BUT TO LIU SONGNIAN'S SURPRISE, HE JUST WENT INTO THE WATER, AND A FOREIGNER NEXT TO HIM SAID VERY KINDLY: "LIU? ”
Hearing this, Liu Songnian turned his head, isn't it GMB's jungler diamond? Diamond's recent appearance in the Europa League is also remarkable, but his fame is already so great that the former world's No. 1 blind monk actually knows him, and he can't afford to get drunk.
But after thinking about it, he was also his opponent after all, how could he not have investigated himself?
“yes。” Liu Songnian's English is not very good, so he can only answer casually.
“Myfriendtoldmethatyourleesinisfantastic.” Diamond Road. (My friend sued me for your blind monk to play 66666)
It may be that the other side also knows that Liu Songnian is not very good at English, so he specially used simple English to communicate with Liu Songnian, Liu Songnian also understood, and replied vaguely: "Soso, notgoodasyou." (Usually, not as much as you6)
“No,no,no。” Diamond said, "Ihavewatchyourvideo.Amazingplayofleesin." (I'VE SEEN YOUR VIDEO, AND THE BLIND MONK PLAYS VERY NICE.) )
PS: Diamond is also a Nu Xiu in English. A new week is about to begin, ask for referral tickets and subscriptions. (To be continued......)
