Su Yi looked at the lottery guests on the stage: I TM...... Thank you! Pump OG for me!

“OG！ OG！ ”

Just when Su Yi was praying, the second one to be drawn out was OG, because of the avoidance principle of the same group, he was directly assigned to the back of the first team in the lower half of the district, that is, behind SKT.

Su Yi: ...... It's not for you to smoke OG at this time, vomiting blood...

The follow-up is directly clear, EDG enters the upper half of the zone, against FNC, KOO enters the lower half, against WOA, and finally all the groups are as follows:

KTvsAHQ

FNCvsEDG

SKTvsOG

WOAvsKOO

After the draw, he smiled and said: "EDG has taken a better draw, FNC should be the weakest among the four groups, if it enters the semi-finals, KT is not as strong as SKT and WOA in the lower half of the region, this group is still relatively easy." ”

"It's more difficult for WOA, it's really difficult to win KOO, and the semi-finals have to face SKT." Sika sighed.

"It's too nightmare, this second half, it's too nightmare."

Changmao said: "How to say it, the lottery is originally like this, everyone wants to hide from SKT when they draw lots, but there will be a team that will meet after all, and in the end to win the championship, it will definitely be SKT." ”

"Don't talk so much." Sika said: "If you want to hide, you still have to hide." ”

"I still don't understand a little, and although you two are former pros, I don't understand something."

"It's better for someone else to bite him than to detain him yourself." Xiaoxiao explained: "That's the case, you deduct SKT, you may not be able to win the championship, this is very hurt, you come up and kill the strongest team, only to enter the semi-finals." ”

Sika also said: "I think sometimes it's like this, the lottery, everyone must want to meet the right opponent, the best piece of meat to eat last, it is impossible to come up and eat the good first, so that even if you win the championship in the end, it may not be so high." ”

In this way, it seems to make some sense.,It's the same as fighting the boss.,All the way through to the end.,The middle must think that the opponent behind will get stronger and stronger.,If you defeat a strong enemy, the final boss is a small soldier... It seems to be really missing some meaning.

For the audience, everyone must want to see a wonderful matchup in the finals, but it seems that this is not the case after S5, the original time and space S5 finals SKT played koo, this is indeed the most exciting BO5 in the S5 World Finals.

S6, the most exciting should be the semi-finals, SKT plays ROX, this BO5 is also considered by many people to be the most exciting BO5 in the previous S competition.

S7, the most exciting seems to be the top four, Su Yi thinks it is SKT playing RNG, but whether it is SKT playing RNG, or SSG playing WE, it feels more exciting than the finals, and even the quarterfinals MSF playing SKT are more exciting than the finals.

S8,The most exciting thing is undoubtedly the quarterfinals,IG vs. KT,The next IG semi-finals are the kind of crushing 3:0,In the eyes of many people,IG plays KT This is the real championship battle,Because I feel that no matter who wins,You can win the championship later,After all, RNG is gone...

S9, there seem to be a lot of exciting games in the knockout round, IG3: 1GRF, G23: 1DWG, Final Four FPX3: 1IG, G23: 1SKT, all very exciting.

......

After the bracket comes out, it's time for the knockout rounds.

The first half, Beijing time:

At 23:00 on October 15, KT vs. AHQ.

At 23:00 on October 16, FNC vs. EDG.

The winners of each of the two halves will face each other in the semi-finals, with the winner advancing to the final.

Lower Half:

At 21:00 on October 17, SKT vs. OG.

At 21:00 on October 18, WOA vs. KOO.

The first half of the semi-finals is 22:00 on October 24, the second half is 21:00 on October 25, and the final is 18:30 on October 31.

"This schedule is still very comfortable for our Chinese audience, much easier than MSI, and more comfortable than the group stage."

"It's more comfortable at 9:10 p.m. in the semifinals and 6:30 p.m. in the finals."

After the camera came back, Long Hair breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Huh, the eighth day of the group stage has finally ended, thank you very much for watching, let's see you next week!" ”

"See you next week!"

......

After the draw was over, after returning to the hotel, the players went to rest, and Su Yihaokai and they got together for a meeting to study the opponent KOO behind them, and take advantage of the past few days to prepare well.

"Coach Su, there's no need to be so heavy, right?" Haokai said with a smile: "Huya can't even beat WE, this draw is okay." ”

Oh, yes... At the beginning of the year, Huya lost to WE, which was at the bottom of the LPL, but that was the beginning of the year, and the current koo has already transformed after a year of running-in.

"Not to be underestimated, the strength of KOO is very strong, I even think he is the strongest team except for SKT!"

If it weren't for Su Yi's seriousness when he said this, Haokai Zhou Xiang would have thought that Su Yi was joking.

"But they lost FW in the group stage, lost twice, and lost FNC once, is it really that strong?"

"Uh..."

Su Yileng, yes, the KOO group stage was only 3-3, was swept by FW, and lost FNC, so it seems that it is really not strong, and it may be regarded as the weakest one in the second of the four groups...

However, Su Yi knows the true strength of KOO, and FW is a famous anti-Korean hero, the king of BO1, and in the original time and space, KOO suddenly became a lot more fierce after the group stage, a 3:1 and a 3:0 are close to the finals, and the final also took a bite of SKT, if it weren't for KOO, SKT would have won the championship in history.

By next year, KOO changed its name to ROXTigers and found Little Peanut to make up for the last shortcoming of the team, but unfortunately, it met SKT, the most team, and lost five games in the semi-finals.

At present, in addition to the starting five-man group, this koo team also brought a substitute jungler, from this move, you know that the KOO team is a little worried about the jungler, in Su Yi's opinion, this is a point that WOA can target.

KOO Listing: Smeb.

Date of birth: 30 June 1995

Personal expertise: Rivien, Rambo, Nal, Centaur and Lulu.

SMEB's fierce laning and excellent team fighting ability are South Korea's biggest discovery this year. smeb used to be the top laner of the IM team, in an OGN regular season last year, smeb used Ruiwen to slash the entire SKT when the team had no hope of advancing to the playoffs, and repeatedly killed faker and piglet in team battles.

In the 2015 season, SMEB joined the newly formed Huya team, and all the statistics in the spring game show that SMEB is the core of this team, as long as he is fat, Huya will have a great chance of winning.

The loss in the IEM9 World Finals made smeb start to think about his own shortcomings. After the team changed its name to KOOTigers in the summer tournament, although the record stumbled, everyone saw the team's progress, and the idea of being able to play tough battles was clear, and SMEB gradually grew into a super top laner, and I expect him to perform better and better.

Jungler: Hojin.

Date of birth: 4 January 1992.

Personal specialty: Wine Barrel, Blind Monk, Excavator and Evelyn.

As a professional player born in January '92, Hojin has passed his 23rd birthday this year and is about to be 24 years old, and he is an older player.

Originally used the ID 'Lee', which used to be the jungler of the najin Black Sword team, in the 2014 season, the Black Sword performed poorly, and many people threw the pot to Lee who could only play the blind monk at the time, and because he loved the blind monk very much, so he took a Lee ID.

In the 2015 season, Lee and KurO from the same club joined a new team, GEtiger, and performed well in the spring season, once topping the world team rankings. However, IEM9 was knocked out by WE and defeated by SKT 3:0 on its way back, resulting in a perfect start but a lack of stamina.

In the summer season, GE changed its name to KOOtiger, and hojin was also oppressed by the team, because KOO introduced a new jungler Wisdom, and finally KOO ranked 3rd in the summer tournament and advanced to S5 in advance with the total points.

Substitute Jungler: Wisdom.

Date of birth: 23 December 1995

Personal specialty: Wine barrel, blind monk, Evelyn

Once the ace jungler of the IM team, he performed remarkably in 2014 and can be described as the shining star of the bad team IM, and like IM2's top laner smeb, Wisdom began to look for a new way out in the 2015 season.

As KOOtiger's new jungler, Wisdom doesn't have many opportunities to play, he needs to compete with the original jungler hojin for the post, his performance is still remarkable, but he always feels that the tacit understanding with his teammates is not enough, except for getting the version of the strong hero barrel, the other jungler heroes are not performing well, and the winning rate is less than 50%.

wisdom's strength is not as good as hojin, so what Su Yi needs to prepare is to target hojin and help Ning suppress the other party in the wild area, so that KOO lacks the motivation to take off, curb the jungler, and then target the upper lane smeb, so it is still necessary to play the first half of the area.
