Chapter 270: The battle for the first place in the group
But Rao is like this, and the people of NOFE and EDG have no intention of giving Chen Ye extra vacation.
The time is still too tight for EDG, and the gap between preparing for the second round of the group stage is only four days.
Four days to prepare for three games. This is a big challenge for the EDG team, how can there be time for the players to take a holiday?
"So, I'm sorry. Obviously, you finally arrived in Wuhan, but I can't stay with you all the time. ”
Chen Ye took Su Qiaoqiao's hand, said this sentence a little helplessly, and lowered his head slightly.
Just as Chen Ye's apology slowly rose in his heart, he suddenly saw with his peripheral vision that a hand stretched out in front of his eyes.
The hand slowly stroked his forehead, then slowly rubbed his eyebrows.
"Don't frown, it's easy to get old. Well...... It's okay if you don't have time for me, I can come back to you when you rest. ”
"Wouldn't it be nice that I wouldn't disturb your training and preparations, and I would be able to meet with you?"
Chen Ye raised his head and didn't say much, just took Su Qiaoqiao into his arms.
"When I have a holiday, I will definitely spend all my time with you."
Su Qiaoqiao leaned on Chen Ye's shoulder, a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth, and the arm around Chen Ye was gently patted on his back.
"I believe in you, Xiao Chen."
……
In the midst of this intense preparation, time passed more than anyone in EDG imagined.
They don't seem to have had time to make all the preparations, and the time for the second round of the group stage is already quietly approaching.
On October 12, after seeing off Su Qiaoqiao at the airport, Chen Ye returned to the hotel where his team stayed.
At this time, EDG is already making its final preparations for tomorrow's game.
For EDG, after winning all of them in the first round of the group stage, it is natural that they hope to play a little better in the second round.
It would be even better if we could finish first in the group.
So, even though the time is approaching, they are still doing their best to prepare for the next game.
So, October 13th.
The second match between EDG and C9 was played again in the Wuhan Gymnasium.
And this time, the result of the game was not much different from what most viewers expected.
Before the start of the game, many people believed that there was a big gap in strength between EDG and C9.
And EDG's performance in the game also fully illustrates this point.
In just 28 minutes of the game, EDG directly bulldozed the base of C9 with an absolute advantage.
also let his points in the group stage come directly to 4:0.
After the end of this game, the EDG crowd was naturally extremely excited.
Not only them, but even many spectators outside the stadium were also a little excited because of EDG's performance.
Because EDG's performance in this game is even stronger than his performance in the first round.
Doesn't this just show that EDG has great hope of advancing to the knockout stage as the top of the group?
Time passed quietly, and there was almost no time for EDG to prepare.
The fifth match of the group stage will start directly on October 14.
EDG's opponent in this game is AHQ.
AHQ in this game was not pressed and beaten by EDG as many people expected before the game started.
Instead, after knowing that he had been pushed to the edge of the cliff and was even about to be eliminated, AHQ erupted into an extremely powerful state.
In the early stage of the game, he even used his own offensive rhythm to suppress EDG at one point.
And as time passed, EDG finally broke away from that sharp rhythm and began to slowly fight back on the field.
It was only after this that the game began to gradually become exciting.
After that, the two sides continued to launch their own offensive rhythm on the field.
It wasn't until 23 minutes of the game that EDG finally brought the game back to parity.
Then, EDG went on a frenzied attack.
In 29 minutes of play, EDG won the first big dragon on the field.
After this big dragon was taken down by EDG, AHQ's win rate was also directly pulled to the lowest.
Finally, after forcibly delaying the game for 32 minutes, AHQ was unable to withstand the attack of the EDG side.
AHQ, bulldozed the base by EDG.
EDG's group stage points have also come to 5:0.
I have to say that the points of this game are really luxurious.
EDG has even locked in the qualifying places in advance.
But...... As for the matter of being the first in the group, it is still undecided.
After all, the current SKT points are still 4:1.
If they can win back in the last game against EDG, then SKT's group stage points will be 5:1 in sync with EDG.
In this case, the two sides will have to play a play-off to determine the top spot in the group stage.
Therefore, even though his current record is five wins, everyone at EDG still does not relax in the slightest.
After returning to their hotel after the match, everyone at EDG is preparing for tomorrow's group stage finale.
While they were preparing for tomorrow's game, the spectators outside the stadium were constantly engaged in heated discussions about this game.
"This game is really interesting, I feel that EDG is a little bit bad, and SKT is going to chase back the first place in the group."
"That's right, SKT they're in pretty good form at Worlds this year. They lost EDG in the entire group stage, and their form is quite good. ”
"That's right, if I feel that EDG is a little lighter, maybe the first place in this group will change hands directly."
"Anyway, I still hope EDG can play well, otherwise they will really not win this game. Group 1...... It's not that easy to take. ”
"It's okay, I feel that Yebao is really in good shape now, if he can play a rhythm, it will be easier for EDG to win the game."
"Indeed, look at how EDG does the tactics, this game can be won, I feel that EDG will be able to break through team history this year."
Most of these discussions on the Internet revolve around whether EDG can win the first place in this group.
The contrast between EDG's weak record in previous years and their almost perfect form this year is stark.
As a direct result, the audience at this time has very high expectations for the final result of this game.
It is in this expectation that the time for the start of the game is quietly approaching.
October 15th, 7 p.m.
The match between EDG and SKT gradually kicked off amid the extremely fierce cheers at the Wuhan Gymnasium.
"Okay, welcome to all the spectators and friends to come to the group stage of the S7 World Championship, EDG vs. SKT, I am the commentary doll."
"I'm the interpreter Miller."
On the commentary seat, after the two commentators finished introducing themselves, they also quickly began to explain and explain the current situation on the field.
"In fact, for this World Championship, EDG's performance so far has been very good."
"They've played so far, and they haven't tasted a defeat so far. Even, they stepped on the body of the defending champion and won the current group top. ”
After a slight pause, the doll continued to speak.
"Therefore, after winning all five games in this group stage, everyone will have a little more expectations for EDG."
"Everyone wants to see EDG get the result of first place in Group A."
Speaking of this, the doll glanced at the doll beside her.
The doll also quickly understood, and the conversation was picked up in an instant.
"Yes, for the current LPL audience, EDG can get the first place in Group A, which is also of great significance."
"In Group A, there are very few teams that are particularly weak. There's even last year's champion, SKT, which is a veritable group of death. ”
"If EDG can finish first in the group here, it will be a big encouragement for our LPL region, as well as the other two teams that are competing in the World Championships."
Miller said, and the doll nodded.
"yes, so let's wait and see."
While the two commentators kept talking, the team members of both sides had already walked from the lounge in the rear to the position of the player's passage at this time.
At this moment, the players on both sides have already met each other.
The battle intent in the eyes of both sides can be captured by the other party clearly.
Then, the fighting spirit in the field rose one notch again.
As time went on, the eyes of both sides became sharper and sharper.
In the end, after the referee's verdict, both sides also stepped to the front of the stage.
"Okay, now we can see that the players from both sides of the game have gone to the top of the stage."
"At this time, they are making final preparations for the start of the game."
As Miller said this, the camera in the arena also very cooperatively gave a shot of the seats of the players on both sides.
Both sides are constantly debugging their own equipment in the process.
And when the movements of the two sides gradually stopped, the picture in the stadium gradually pulled to the audience.
At this moment, many people in the Wuhan Stadium are waving EDG's team flag in their hands.
The enthusiastic cheers also sounded in the Wuhan Gymnasium in this process.
In the next second, the doll's passionate voice also sounded quickly above the commentary seat.
"Okay, now we can see that the game has entered the BP stage!"
The doll's voice sounded, and the picture in the field quickly came to the interface of BP.
This EDG has come to the blue side.
And their first three bans are directly sent to the ban pool of Ruiz, the blind monk and skateboard shoes.
The two midfielders, Ruiz and the Blind Monk, are SKT's best heroes in the group stage of the World Championship, and the midfield positions are the best in each of them.
Since EDG wants to focus on Nakano, these two heroes are the heroes they must pay attention to.
As for skateboard shoes, this hero is an option on the EDG side in order to limit the thinking of the SKTBAN people.
When it comes to SKT, their first three hands are banned, and their thinking is also very clear.
The excavator of the factory director was directly sent into the ban pool by them directly at the first hand.
In EDG's recent competition, if the opponent releases the excavator, what kind of play the factory director can use it to play, this is also obvious to all.
In this case, how could SKT still give this hero to EDG?
Then, after banning the excavator, SKT quickly sent Jace and Galio into the ban.
There is no way, these two heroes have become a fixed ban position for almost all teams facing EDG in recent games.
Everyone knows very well what the result will be if these two heroes are released to Chen Ye in the game.
Once released, it's almost a situation where the middle lane or the early rhythm collapses.
Therefore, this SKT has almost no luck psychology, and directly sent these two heroes into the ban pool neatly.
And after these two heroes were sent to the ban pool, EDG's blue side chose to directly determine Luo.
Among the first six hand bans, neither side had the intention of banning Xia Luo.
In this case, if EDG doesn't snatch one of the Charlottes, the combination will almost certainly be snatched by the SKT duo.
EDG, naturally, doesn't want to see that happen.
And after EDG determined Luo, SKT's thinking is also very clear.
After this, they directly snatched Kasumi and Hammerstone.
Obviously, they don't plan to let EDG get the combination of Xia Luo comfortably.
After EDG saw this scene, he naturally saw the move.
The prince and the mouse were taken out directly.
SKT's third hand is to identify the spider.
At this point, the first half of BP ends.
In the second half of the BP, the thinking of the two sides is clearer.
The duos and junglers on both sides have already been determined at this time.
In this case, it is also clear which position they should go against next.
The four bans after this by both sides directly sent the four mid-laner heroes into the ban pool.
Eventually, Faker was on the fourth floor and had some last resort to pull out Karma.
EDG's four- and five-hand selection is to determine the big bugs and clockwork.
SKT's last hand, locking the keg.
At this point, the lineups of the two sides have also been completely determined.
Blue EDG lineup: Top Single Big Bug, Jungler Prince, Mid Single Clockwork, ADC Mouse, Auxiliary Luo.
Red SKT lineup: Top Lane Barrel, Jungler Spider, Mid Lane Kalmar, ADC Kasumi, Support Hammerstone.
After the lineups of the two sides were determined, the game also entered the link of the line period with the cheers of the audience.
Chen Ye also manipulated the clockwork line after the start of the game.
