The next day ushered in the most important day in the esports industry.

The S7 World Finals, on the first day, the round-robin elimination round robin of Group A, began.

Early in the morning, at eight o'clock, Xu Zifeng and the others came to the hotel lobby to gather, and after everyone gathered, the doll took them to the Mythical E-sports Hall.

The fans who came to watch the game today were much more exaggerated than yesterday's opening ceremony, and the entire mythical e-sports stadium was almost surrounded by crowds, if it weren't for the security personnel who had arranged for the security personnel to clear the passage for the participating teams early in the morning, they wanted to squeeze through the crowd and enter the infield of the e-sports stadium, which was simply wishful thinking.

Along the way, the fans around him kept shouting.

"Maniac, I'm a fan of yours." This is a hysterical cry of a female fan, probably so that Xu Zifeng can hear it, and her voice is broken, but as a result, her wish has come true, because Xu Zifeng can fully feel her excitement and sincerity from her shout.

"Little Piggy, I love you, I love you..." When Sao Pig heard the crazy female fan shout this sentence, the corners of his mouth suddenly outlined a smiling smile, and his eyes narrowed into a slit.

"Come on Zhang Yiheng, I'm your fan, I deliberately flew from Beijing to South Korea to watch your game, you are no worse than anyone, you have to give yourself confidence." Not only Xu Zifeng and Sao Zhu have fans, Zhang Yiheng, Chen Zihao, and Ban Brick Face all have their own fans.

There have been media interviews with Zhang Yiheng before, Zhang Yiheng is very bold to say his true situation, so half of the Chinese know that he is a little inferior, self-confidence is not enough, when Zhang Yiheng heard a fan shouting for him, he felt that his cheeks were sour, and the vision in front of him suddenly became a little blurred, and then he found that the corners of his eyes were suddenly moist.

In the Maple Cloud Clan.

The others sparkled like fireflies in the night, but he seemed to be unknown in a corner where no one knew about it.

Xu Zifeng is a thoughtful person who takes into account the overall situation, otherwise he would not be able to be the captain and commander, he changed positions with Chen Zihao, and walked to the mythical e-sports stadium amid the shouts of fans, while reaching out to Zhang Yiheng, and said loudly: "Yiheng, what we are about to arrive at is the largest e-sports stage in the world, and being able to come here is enough to prove that your strength is definitely not lost to other players, adjust your mentality, give yourself a little confidence, remember, after you go to the field, You're not fighting alone, and you're still fighting us. ”

Zhang Yiheng's eyes were moist, and he nodded heavily, "um", his tone was a little choked, but he said very firmly: "Brother Feng, believe me, I will never hold you back, I will definitely be able to, I will definitely do it." ”

"Well done, we believe in you."

"Hmm."

"I love you." At this time, Sao Pig waved at the surrounding fans with a happy face and sent a flying kiss.

This time, Long Xue'er didn't pinch the pig, but held the pig's hand with a smile, she was telling all the female fans in this intimate way that the pig was her Long Xue'er's, and others didn't want to snatch it.

When they walked into the infield of the Mythical E-sports Stadium from the entrance, the entire infield was already full of people at this time, like a super vegetable market, and they walked down the steps, and the fans sitting on both sides of the watch area kept shouting the names of the teams and players.

At this time, there are at least 30,000 or 40,000 fans who have already been seated, and about half of the audience seats are empty.

Of course, it's not that tickets can't be sold, but it's too crowded outside, and you need to queue up to enter one by one in an orderly manner, anyway, the game doesn't start until nine o'clock, and there is still more than half an hour.

After coming to the player's rest area and sitting down, before Xu Zifeng and the others could speak, they saw several beautiful makeup artists coming over with makeup boxes to help them put on makeup.

Xu Zifeng said strangely: "Today is a group A game, do we also need makeup in group B?" ”

The makeup artist didn't speak, and Wang Yinuo on the side explained: "Because the group round-robin knockout is a BO1 format, the morning and afternoon are Group A matches, if it ends relatively quickly, Group B needs to play, which is called preparing in advance, just in case." ”

Xu Zifeng nodded suddenly.

They are receiving makeup here, and in the upper left corner of the scene, there is a cute and cute girl sitting there, with beautiful big eyes as if she can speak, and this girl is Xu Zifeng's classmate and table at Kunming University, and Wang Meng'er, who disappeared later.

In this global finals, she quietly came to the scene by herself, and even her good friend Long Xueer didn't know that she was here.

"Brother Ji, you must come on, Meng'er came to the scene to support you, forgive me for not being able to go to you, if I take the initiative to see you, it will be tantamount to hurting you, although you don't have me in your heart, but I still don't want to see you hurt."

"Meng'er silently supports you."

When it was almost nine o'clock, almost all the fans were seated, and the entire infield, at a glance, was black and pressing, full of people, 80,000 people sat in the same stadium to watch the game, what a spectacular scene?

At least, Xu Zifeng and the others were stunned.

More than 10,000 people arrived yesterday, and they always felt that there were not many people, but today, all the audience seats were full, and they knew what it meant to be shocked.

The excitement of the fans was endless, and because there were so many people and so many chatters, by the time it reached their players' rest area, it had become a chaotic noise, and it was impossible to hear what the fans were talking about nearby.

But if you think about it, you should know that fans are definitely talking about whether there will be two teams in Group A.

As soon as nine o'clock arrived, at the invitation of the host, the first round of round-robin elimination of Group A, South Korea's SKG team vs North American TSM team.

The North American TSM team is more famous, but the SKG team is a bit unknown, similar to the Fengyun team, a dark horse team belonging to the S7 season, and it has sprung up, unlike the TSM team, which has long been world-famous and has a strong team.

In this battle, many people are optimistic about the TSM team.

However, the result was unexpected, the originally powerful TSM team was like a group of elementary school students in the game, and the rhythm of the whole game was led by SKG, and in the first twenty minutes, the economy was pulled to a gap of 9,000.

SKG's rhythm is quite fast, and it doesn't give TSM a chance to drag the late stage at all, taking advantage of the overwhelming advantage of the economy, and has been squeezing the development space of TSM, and then forcing them to play a group, and the final outcome can be imagined, SKG defeated TSM in twenty-five minutes.

The first battle of the S7 World Championship ended in a way that everyone expected, with SKG winning big and TSM losing a mess.

Ten minutes later.

The second round of Group A begins.

European G2 teams vs Xx teams in the Wild Card region.

Everyone is thinking in their hearts in this battle, there should be no surprises this time, right? The European G2 teams, like the North American TSM teams, are all old world-class top teams, as for the Xx teams in the wild card region, I have never heard of them, and G2 will win.

However.

It's always a surprise.

G2 lost.

And the loss is as miserable as TSM, even, much worse than TSM, at the beginning, the jungler of the Xx team got a blood advantage, and then, his irascible invasion and strong rhythm, quickly helped his teammates on the line to gain an advantage, and in the case of a few lines of flowering, the G2 team completely lost the ability to resist like a flower girl.

It took 22 minutes and 339 seconds.

G2 was defeated.

Team XX won with great results.

Ten minutes later.

The third showdown begins.

It ended in half an hour.

The first round of the round-robin elimination round of Group A took less than two hours to end, and it was not even eleven o'clock at this moment, which was unexpected by everyone.

Of course, this situation was also expected by the competition, so the first round of round-robin knockout matches in Group B officially kicked off.

"Here are the two teams from the first round of the knockout round of Group B, namely the Fengyun team from the Chinese LPL region and the T2 team from the Thai wild card region."

"Bang Bang..."

"Bang Bang..."

The applause was as shocking as thunder, and more than 80,000 spectators applauded at the same time.

Xu Zifeng felt that his scalp was numb by the applause.

Not an exaggeration at all.

Now that I think back to the Shanghai Fengyun E-sports Stadium, it is really the difference between ants and elephants.

"Come on."

"Little bastard, don't let your sister down."

"Husband, you're the best."

"Little princess, I'm going to the battlefield, come, kiss one, give some encouragement." After saying that, Sao Pig rose up and kissed Long Xue'er's seductive thin lips.

Xu Zifeng smiled and gently pecked Chen Meixi's cheek.

The brick face and Jiang Li hugged each other.

A trace of doubt flashed on Zhang Yiheng's face, he was struggling in his heart, whether to kiss Wang Yinuo or not, although his relationship with Wang Yinuo has been a big step closer, but he has never kissed Wang Yinuo in public.

At this time, Wang Yinuo took the initiative to hook his finger at him and said, "Come here." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Yiheng stretched his head over.

Wang Yinuo took the initiative to kiss him on the lips and said with a smile: "My dear, you will not be worse than anyone else, come on." ”

"Well, I'll definitely try." Zhang Yiheng was excited.

Everyone had objects to encourage, but Chen Zihao stood alone on the side, and when he saw this, he smiled and said to him: "Chen Zihao, if you behave well later, I will give you a mysterious gift." ”

"What mysterious gift?" Chen Zihao's eyes lit up, and he stared at Miss tightly and asked.

"I'll tell you when you're doing well, if you're acting so-so, it's because I didn't say it." Miss smiled.

"Okay, that's it, brother-in-law will help me testify."

"Okay, let's go, everyone from the T2 team has come to the stage, although we are a world-class team, we can't play big names, otherwise we will be scolded by fans." Sao Pig said with a smug face.

"Haha, let's go."

"Come on."

Xu Zifeng took the lead, and the five of them left the players' rest area with their equipment and came to the bottom of the stage, followed by Liu Yi, because Liu Yi is the head coach of Fengyun Club, and there are some things that she needs to communicate with the other coach. After the T2 team walked onto the stage, they followed behind to the stage.

At this moment, the applause that had just fallen sounded like a tsunami again.

The host said a few words, and then Xu Zifeng and the people of the T2 team shook hands with each other, followed by Liu Yi also shook hands with the coach of the T2 team, at this time, the players of both sides turned around and walked to the players of each team's competition area.

"You first replace the debugging equipment, and then check the number, and I will go to guess the punch with the other coach." Liu Yi left this sentence and was just about to leave, but Sao Zhu suddenly said: "Coach Liu, I don't think you need to go, anyway, every time you go to the other coach's guess boxing, the result is losing, presumably there will be no exception this time, right?" ”

"Change your device." Liu Yi glared at him and left the contestant's competition area.

"Hey, hey." Sao Pig smiled, and then began to change the mouse and keyboard.

Xu Zifeng said while changing the equipment: "The analysis report given to us by Liu Yi and Wang Yinuo has clearly written the weakness of the T2 team, I will mainly attack the opponent's jungler, walk around a little more, help the lower road to gain an advantage as soon as possible, and solve this game within thirty minutes." ”

"Okay." The brick face responded.

"Brother Feng, Chen Zihao and I will work hard." Zhang Yiheng said.

"What about me, what about me?" Sao Pig said.

"You? You just have to work the road and draw the attention of the jungler. Xu Zifeng said with a smile.

"Damn, acting in your true colors."

"Hmm."

"Okay, no problem."

Several people were doing pre-game communication, while changing the equipment, and after all their equipment was replaced, Liu Yi had already returned, she said: "I have given each other your ID, and they will create a room to pull you." ”

"Lost?" Xu Zifeng asked.

"Hmm." Liu Yi nodded.

"I'll just say it, the result is the same." Sao Pig pouted.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense."

“......”

Five minutes later, the staff came over to check the computers used by Xu Zifeng and others for the game later, in addition to checking whether their equipment can be used normally, there is another purpose, to detect whether they have quietly used any third-party software that affects the balance of the game.

It is also commonly known as plug-ins.

Although it is impossible for a player to dare to use a plug-in in such a big competition, but, carefully sailing the 10,000-year-old boat, the staff tested it, and there was nothing unusual, so he took two steps back and stood still, obviously, he was planning to monitor the whole process.

Xu Zifeng didn't care about it, anyway, they were all real skills, not to mention a person standing behind them to monitor, even if there were ten or a hundred more, they wouldn't be flustered.

A minute later.

The people of the T2 team took the initiative to send a friend application, and after Xu Zifeng and a few people accepted it, the people of the T2 team sent an invitation to the game.

After Xu Zifeng and the five of them accepted the invitation to enter the custom battle room in order, the people of T2 typed and asked, "OK?" ”

“OK。” Xu Zifeng replied.

After the ten-second countdown, the game screen of both team members jumps to the game BP screen at the same time.

BP, the most critical step.

Targeted BP can definitely limit the overall strength of the enemy team, and the strong point of the T2 team is the jungler and bottom lane combination, so when Xu Zifeng banned the hero, he put the focus on the bottom lane combination, and as for the jungler hero, he released them all.

Seriously, in the game between junglers, he is worthy of any player, this is not a light enemy, but a strong confidence in himself.

The heroes banned by the T2 team were completely unexpected, as in the previous LPL professional league, the three banned positions were all aimed at him.

Poodles, blind monks, spiders.

These three jungler heroes with a strong rhythm were all actively banned by the T2 team, and after the heroes of both sides were banned, the first floor of the T2 team preferred the widow.

It can be seen that the T2 team still has a certain understanding of the Fengyun team, first banning poodles, blind monks, spiders, and then robbing widows, so that the jungler hero seems to have no choice except for a male gun.

As for Lex, it's no longer available.

Obviously there is no Ban, why can't it be used?

Because Lexie has been greatly weakened, the passive detection range and the damage of the Q skill have been weakened very badly, and the Q skill is secondary, as long as the development is good, you can use the advantage of the equipment to make up for the lack of damage, but the passive can't make up for it.

In the past, Lexi's passive range of "listening" was particularly large, but now, it is not enough to fill the screen, that is, as long as it is not within the same screen distance as Lexi, Lexi's passive cannot hear the footsteps of enemy heroes.

This nerf is the most hurtful for Lexie.

As for the male gun, the limitations are very large, there is no control, and it is not like the blind monk in the early stage, spiders, and poodles, and there is a very strong outburst, and the male gun is a brush development jungler, and the success rate of GINK is far worse than that of widows.

So, when it comes to BP alone, it seems that the T2 team has some upper hand.

After the T2 team selected the widow on the first floor, it was Xu Zifeng's turn to choose the hero on the first and second floors, Xu Zifeng was on the first floor, and Zhang Yiheng was on the second floor.

"Brother Feng, shall I take my own assistance first?" Zhang Yiheng asked.

"Well, you take your own." Xu Zifeng replied, and began to look for heroes in the hero pool, and after a few seconds, he selected the hero.

Victor.

Again, as long as Victor is outside, he will definitely give priority to Brickface, because Victor is the hero Brickface is best at.

After the selection of the second and third floors of the T2 team, it was Xu Zifeng's turn to choose heroes on the third and fourth floors, Chen Zihao on the third floor, and the brick face on the fourth floor.

After Chen Zihao chose Ember, he asked with a brick face: "Brother Feng, what hero do you want?" ”

"Help me get it..."Xu Zifeng hesitated for a few seconds, then looked at the hero selected on the first three floors of T2, and then said, "Take the ball girl." ”

“......”

Several people were stunned for a moment.

"It's okay, don't worry." Xu Zifeng saw that the brick face had not helped him get the ball girl for a long time, so he knew what he was worried about, so he said it again.

"Don't ink the bricks, believe Brother Feng, take the ball girl." Seeing that the bricks were still a little hesitant, Sao Pig opened his mouth and urged.

"Hmm." Slab Brickface nodded, then found the ball girl in the hero pool, and then nodded OK.

"Wow!"

The choice of the brick face, after the fans on the scene saw it through the big screen, they suddenly let out an exclamation, obviously there is already Victor, why do you still choose the ball girl?

If Zhang Yiheng didn't choose Hammer Stone, everyone might think that the Fengyun team's selection of ball girls should be for auxiliary use.

However, Zhang Yiheng is on the second floor, and he has chosen the hammer stone early on, that is to say, it is impossible for the ball girl to use it to assist.

Other words.

Between Victor and the ball girl, there will be a hero who will be taken by Xu Zifeng to jungle.

Fans who are familiar with the Fengyun team know that the midlaner of the Fengyun team is particularly good at Victor, and after ruling out this possibility, then the result will be self-evident.

Such an important event.

Xu Zifeng is just like playing, taking the ball girl to the jungle?

At this time, the fans who care about the Fengyun team, in addition to some unexpected little excitement, are more worried, they are not only looking forward to the Fengyun team to bring them a wonderful game, but also worried that Xu Zifeng's decision is equivalent to playing with fire, what if they lose in the end?
