Chapter 523: Top Spot in the Group Stage!

The rank strength of the European server is really not good for the people of the Thorn Bird.

Even the MLXG in Rank can be perfectly integrated into the European server, and it is simply a big score.

Therefore, the main training of the three LPL teams is still focused on the daily training matches with other teams.

The popularity of the Thorn Bird is relatively good, and their strength is now recognized as a T0 level in the World Championship, so there is an endless stream of teams who choose to take the initiative to come to the training match with the Thorn Bird.

Even SKT has invited the Thorn Bird to fight.

When Zhu Kai found Li Luo and said the appeal made by the SKT team, Li Luo responded after a short thought.

SKT's aim is to finish first in the group stage.

The same goes for thorn birds.

If the goals of both teams can be achieved, it means that the earliest meeting between them and SKT will be to the semi-finals.

Of course, Li Luo knew the purpose of SKT's appointment with them, firstly, to treat Thorn Bird as a tool man, and use Thorn Bird's more prominent rhythm ability to hone the lineup that the SKT team had not yet run in to the extreme in the early stage.

Second, it is naturally to explore the reality of the Thorn Bird team.

SKT's abacus is good, but why doesn't the thorn bird want to get something on SKT?

After all, the addition of kanavi and a has indeed changed SKT's playing style to a certain extent, and Li Luo is also more curious about the specific ability of this SKT.

In addition to the training with SKT, the team that trains the most is FPX in the same region.

It's just that every time after a training match with FPX, the Thorn Bird players feel a little confused.

"This FPX ...... Reasoning shouldn't be played like that. ”

After being played by sofm in a counterpoint, the incense pot said with some confusion.

FPX performed very well in the training matches.

Compared to their mismatch in the main match, FPX in the training match seemed to be reborn.

But because of this, it is a little deformed.

"I don't quite understand either, it stands to reason that FPX should have a good mentality in the competition."

Li Luo also shook his head slightly.

Judging from Li Luo's impression of FPX in his memory, it is really not appropriate to play like this.

This is different from the FPX before Rebirth.

After all, the FPX team was all making their Worlds debut, and everyone was relatively slow to adapt to the Worlds.

But today's FPX is not the same, although the 957 on the road is also the first time to enter the World Championship, but according to Li Luo's understanding of 957, the 957 of the competition is unlikely to have stage fright.

The same goes for Doinb, who can shine at the continental competitions, and he doesn't have much of a problem in terms of mentality.

As for the lower road, hope Li Luo also knows a lot, even in the game that FPX loses, hope dares to fight.

As a youngster, Hope is really good.

In other words, there is a high probability that the problem is in the small section and the SOFM.

Although the relationship between the two teams is not as good as that between the Thorn Bird and IG or EDG, they must always be external before the war in the same region.

Broke bones and tendons.

It's not that Li Luo didn't want to give FPX a little inspiration through training and competition.

But the FPX training match played so well, but Li Luo had no way to help.

Everything can only be relied on by themselves.

……

The second round of the group stage is coming as scheduled.

The second round, which was very intense, was also divided into four days.

Each of the four ABCD divisions will have three matches in one day, and these three matches plus the points from the first round will compete for a place in the knockout round.

There is no doubt that every day of this second round is exciting and cruel.

Every day, there will be teams leaving, maybe there are teams that are reversed in the second round when they have a good advantage in the first round, and there are also teams that are 0/3 in the first round and the second round are counterattacked to qualify.

There have been so many miracles in the S race.

The first day of the second round of the group stage has nothing to do with the LPL region.

Group C, the only grouping without an LPL team, ushered in their battle today.

G2, the No. 1 seed in Europe, only managed a 2/1 record in the first round of the group stage, with 3/0 of the group being the No. 3 seed DWG from the Korean LCK region.

North American Light C9 only won the first victory of the GAM team in Vietnam.

For them, this group is the death group.

On the eve of the game, the Thorn Birds went to a supermarket in Germany to buy a wave, feel the local prices, and also buy a lot of snacks for the pastime of watching the game.

They didn't go to the scene, but set up a big screen in the temporary base, where they watched the live broadcast, although there was no live atmosphere, but it was much freer.

Temperatures in Germany have already begun to drop in October.

However, the heating equipment in the temporary base is sufficient, especially the stove with a sense of ritual and art, which has become the favorite of every player.

Eating fried chicken sausage snacks and drinking authentic imported small cola......

Although Li Luo didn't feel much different from Coca-Cola in China.

Soon, the Group C competition kicked off.

Whether it's the Thorn Birds or the European spectators, there are only four words to describe today's game.

It's worth the trip.

G2 is a stealer.

In the second round of the group stage, they first defeated DWG with their tough strength and tactical reversal, completing the revenge of the first round of the group stage, and then won the other two teams.

C9 is unlucky.

The North American Light buff didn't work this time.

They managed just two wins in the group stage, while Vietnam's GAM handed in a clean sheet.

In Group C, two 5/1 teams will need a play-off to see who is the top of the group!

And when the BP of the two sides of this playoff was finalized, the Thorn Bird everyone was happy.

G2 came up with a lineup system that was almost identical to that of the Thorn Birds when they faced Team Griffin in the first round.

Pike, plus the Jewel Knight.

But G2 shook more thoroughly than the thorn bird.

They let the Apindra who had transitioned to the AD position actually go down the road with the gem.

caps used small cannons to suppress DWG's mid-laner showmaker.

Wunder, who hit the road, used his best trick, Pike.

The top laner Pike was originally taken out by Wunder in the arena first.

Now Wunder is also a return to his old business.

It is worth mentioning that G2 has such an avant-garde lineup, but the hero with the jungler position is an outdated pig girl.

The selection of this pig girl is very intriguing, everyone knows that before the world version, the pig girl has been weakened twice in a row, and in this world championship, she has actually broken away from the big army.

Jankos, a comedian on the G2 side, unconsciously focuses more on a more ferocious jungler style.

But the coach of G2 chose a jungler like Pig Girl for him.

What is the purpose?

However, when he saw that BP was finalized, Li Luo couldn't help but sigh.

G2 or G2.

Even if G2 finally fell 0-3 to FPX before the rebirth, it is undeniable that G2 dominated the whole year at that time, and their strength was well deserved.

If it weren't for the relaxed training atmosphere in Europe, G2 might have been able to improve with a little less work.

G2's tactical thinking is simply too flexible.

Pig Girl seems to be weakened, but after Pig Girl is selected, it means that Niu Guli, the sharp knife player on the DWG road, will be deflated in this game.

The truth is just as Li Luo said.

Niu Guli got Jace, which he is very good at.

Alignment makes it easy to push Pike out of the experience zone.

But when it comes to the gank of the wild boar girl, Niu Guli is really a little thin.

It's not too easy for Pike of the Blade to cooperate with Pig Girl's passive stacked with E-skills.

Niu Guli has relatively little experience in competitions, and his style of play is aggressive and occasionally reckless.

This kind of recklessness has made the G2 team's Ueno linkage.

G2 directly trained the Niu Coulee Army to 0/6, Rao is so Niu Coulee still played a good performance in the middle of the game, but wunder's Pike was liberated too early, which also caused huge pressure on the rest of the DWG.

The more stable lower lanes of Stable Aker and DWG were suppressed by the ghost animal heroes swayed by G2.

During the period of suppression, Pike came over and crossed the cross, which was undoubtedly very fatal to them.

G2 finally managed to defeat DWG and win the first place in Group C!

And with Group C's G2 delivering a satisfactory answer to the European audience, Group D's EDG was not to be outdone.

Just like last year's Worlds, even if there was no Li Luo this year, EDG managed to win the other three games in Group D, which is not very competitive, with its abundant consistency.

6/0。

EDG became the first team to qualify 6/0 at the S9 Worlds.

And their stability is quite terrifying in the eyes of countless viewers.

The domestic starch is also happy with the momentum of EDG's high progress.

Lin Weixiang finally won the recognition of a large number of starches through his fairly stable late performance in the group stage of the World Championship.

In this way, at least in the tournament, everyone on the EDG team passed the test, and they are not the tournament soft-footed shrimp!

Li Luo was not surprised by the results obtained by EDG.

EDG's current configuration is half of the FPX it was before the rebirth.

The ferocity of the junior brother and the control of Meiko, the Dinghai God Needle, make Jin Gong, Xiaotian and Lin Weixiang play like a fish in water.

It is also EDG's ability to double kill TL teams that perform well.

Group D group first EDG.

Group 2nd TL!

AHQ and SPY are unfortunately out.

The third day was the battle between the Thorn Bird team and their group.

For the CG team that had been abused by them in the first round, Thorn Bird still didn't choose to stay.

However, this time, because the former champion AD player Piglet deliberately avoided the confrontation between ADs and chose a bomberman to act as the team's bastard, Thornbird was slightly hindered in the later push tower.

In the end, I was stunned to hold CG for 26 minutes before it was bulldozed because it couldn't clear the big dragon buff and the economic difference between the two sides was too huge.

JTema is no exception.

Chou Dong's team has been tepid, although they won two North American CG teams, but the situation is obviously somewhat similar to the North American Light C9 in Group C.

And with CG handing over the 0/6 World Championship answer sheet, all three teams in North America in this World Championship were eliminated.

And of the 18 games played by the three teams, only four have been won.

Cruel to the extreme.

The G2 team also sent a congratulatory message as soon as the last team in North America was eliminated...... Oh no, comfort.

In the eyes of the G2 teams, although their European No. 3 seed SPY has been eliminated, at least the FNC qualification situation in Group A is clear.

As a result, there is a high probability that two teams from Europe will advance to the knockout round.

It would be too comfortable and spicy to let them send away FNC, who has a high probability of finishing second in the group, if there is a civil war again.

However, the race for the top spot continues.

The showdown with Griffin is still the finale of the day.

Griffin changed the way they played in the first round of the group stage, choosing to let Chaowei come up with a relatively offensive hero in the early stage, the Tricky Enchantress.

But the hero pool here is also quite rich, and Lisandro is perfect for Kante.

Of course, Chaowei relied on his excellent laning ability to try to suppress the night of the old player who was already an e-sports player in the early stage, but the night of the World Championship was the same as playing hormones, and the World Championship buff perfectly smoothed the gap between age and Chaowei for his improved strength.

Coupled with the advantages of hero attributes, Xiye is invincible in the middle lane.

The other paths of Griffin, however, were a bit more painful.

The Sword Emperor on the road took out his signature heroic sword demon.

However, Raven of the World Championship once again brought cheers to the scene.

The second time he used Raven's Holy Spear Brother and the incense pot, they were perfectly connected in the early stage, and successfully penetrated the Sword Emperor, making the Sword Emperor a breakthrough.

The hero chosen by the viper in the lower lane this time is Callista, he didn't expect to be able to suppress Li Luo, but just hoped to give the auxiliary player the opportunity to wander the side lane with the strength of the early lane.

In the face of Viper's Calista, Li Luo took a hand very steadily, which he rarely used on the field, but there has always been a legendary hero on the field.

German language.

It is matched with Liu Qingsong's hammer stone.

You must know that after joining the Thorn Bird, Li Luo has never used the hero Delaiwen again.

The last time he used German, it was paired with meiko's hammerstone.

It is actually difficult to determine which of Meiko's hammer stone and Liu Qingsong's hammer stone is stronger or weaker.

But if it is about the compatibility between the line and the German text, Liu Qingsong's hammer stone is still better.

Compared to Meiko, Liu Qingsong's hammer stone will focus more on operation and spirituality in the laning phase.

Although Meiko's own suppression ability is strong, his hammer stone belongs to the more comprehensive kind, which is very good in all aspects, and lacks a little spirituality.

When the bullhead's second combo was predicted by the hammerstone three times in a row and interrupted with the doom pendulum, Griffin's lower path was out of line.

With a wave of four packs of two, after Li Luo used Delaiwen's ultimate move K to drop a person's head and explode the passive bounty, Delaiwen completely took off.

And this game Griffin lasted 31 minutes.

Compared to the encounter between the previous one and the thorn bird, it is a slight improvement.

The Thorn Birds won the group with a perfect score of 6/0!

Griffin came in second.

Six spots have been decided for the quarterfinals of the knockout round.

All eyes are on Group A.
