Chapter 274: Quarterfinals vs. G2
And the "coincidence" is that the LMS division and the wild card division, the two regions that went to the LCK training camp, all teams were eliminated.
On the way to the venue, Chen Luoyang saw various rhythms on the Internet through his mobile phone, and now some people are blaming LCK for bringing these two divisions apart, so that they don't even have a top eight team.
Of course, LCK fans also have something to say, and the individual strength of these two teams is not good.
Even if the gods come, they can't take it, and the fans on both sides began to quarrel, each insisting on its own words.
However, in Chen Luoyang's view, there is a big difference between the choice of training camp in LPL or LCK.
LCK's style of play is very stiff and is now about to be eliminated.
In contrast, the LPL is much more flexible in its style of play.
From this point of view, LPL is naturally better.
Coming to the competition venue, a tower in the middle of the road rushed to the rest room, and after putting down his things, Abu said:
"Director, are you ready? Go ahead when you're ready, and they'll tell you the rules. ”
"Okay, then I'll go first." The factory director left the lounge and prepared to go to the stage to draw lots.
"How do you let the factory go, I don't worry about his putting it away, I won't pump the RNG over." Ah Shui said suddenly.
Abu: "If it's RNG, there's no way, it's fate, I can only say yes." ”
"It's a bit of a shame, but we have to win."
Mei Kou smiled: "After the summer finals, I will invite Xiao Ming to eat several meals, if we draw them again in the quarterfinals, it is estimated that Xiao Ming will hate me to death." ”
RNG and EDG team members now have a good relationship in private, especially Meikou and Xiao Ming, the relationship between the two is very iron, and they often eat, go shopping, and so on.
Chen Luoyang: "I hope not, to be honest, I'm too familiar with RNG's style of play, and it's no longer challenging to fight with them." ”
Chen Luoyang is not bragging, he is indeed very familiar with RNG, after all, he has seen all the future games.
In addition, the two teams now often train together, and their respective routines are basically known to each other.
For Chen Luoyang, there is no novelty.
From a game perspective, it's good to be able to win the game easily, but it doesn't make much sense if it's completely unchallenging.
As the EDG people spoke, the screen in the lounge began to play the scene.
The moderator began to introduce the rules of this draw.
The rules are still relatively simple, first draw the first of the four groups, and then draw the second of the four groups.
Of course, the first and second place in the same group in the group stage cannot be separated.
If they are drawn together, they will be postponed to the next group.
After the host introduced the rules, the four invited contestants appeared.
EDG is the favorite in this S competition, and the factory director must be the first to play.
Behind the director is Bang, which stands for SKT.
And then there's SMEB, which stands for ROX.
However, in Chen Luoyang's view, SMEB is no worse than Bang.
Of course, he didn't have a championship, so he couldn't compare in terms of honors, and the official estimate was to take this into account and put him behind Bang.
And the last one is the broiler, the broiler looks very happy, after all, he finally reached the quarterfinals, and he is the first in the group stage.
The four people appeared on the stage, and the audience also gave warm applause.
Immediately afterwards, the factory director was the first to come to the stage and took out the first signature in front of everyone.
"Good guys, it's us when we make a move." Ah Shui muttered, the factory director had already spread out the sign in his hand, and it was the EDG team emblem printed on it!
Then, the factory director came out with another one, and this one pulled out the IG.
The task of the factory director was completed, and he came to work instead.
The Bang draws are Rox and SKT.
Now SKT and EDG are in one half-zone, while IG and Rox are in one-half-zone!
This means that if EDG and SKT can both advance to the semi-finals, then they will meet in the semi-finals!
The same goes for IG and ROX!
Seeing this result, the corners of Ah Shui's mouth rose slightly, and he said, "It's SKT again!" Old friends. ”
Abu said: "Don't, it's not finished drawing yet, maybe someone will be beaten down by the following in the end." ”
The EDG crowd continued to look at the screen, and at this time SMBE had already appeared, and he directly pulled out G2 and C9.
This means that EDG's opponent in the quarterfinals is G2!
And IG's opponent in the quarterfinals is C9!
The last appearance is the broiler, and the broiler takes out the last two signs, although everyone knows which two teams they are, but the order is very important!
The first thing to be taken out was RNG!
In this way, RNG is directly assigned to the ROX group.
And the final TSM is to play the quarterfinals against SKT.
Seeing this result, the EDG everyone began to discuss.
I saw Ah Shui say: "I feel that RNG is a little hanging, they actually want to fight with ROX, judging from ROX's performance in the LCK Summer Tournament, they are not lost to SKT at all." ”
"RNG has lost to SKT twice, and it's a bit difficult to win against ROX."
Abu agreed: "It's a bit difficult, but the main thing is that Rox is actually not quite like other LCK teams, and the rest of their team also likes to fight, compared to other LCK teams. ”
Sister button: "RNG is also the type that likes to just when you meet, to be honest, I really want to see how these two teams fight, especially when the spicy fragrant pot meets the little peanut." ”
As soon as my sister said this, everyone made up their minds, including Chen Luoyang.
Spicy fragrant pot and small peanuts are the kind of junglers who like to operate and are young and vigorous.
And they all like to invade the opposite wild area, and the spicy fragrant pot invades the wild area, mainly to squeeze the development of the opposite side and give up their own wild area to their teammates.
And Little Peanut is more seeking wild area collision, and it is best to be able to kill the opposite jungle alone.
In any case, when these two people come together, there can be no peace in the wilderness.
Thinking of this, Chen Luoyang began to look forward to it, and he wanted to know what it would be like when the two teams played.
I saw Abu said: "Now our schedule is basically decided, first play with G2, if there is no accident in the semi-finals, it should be with SKT, and finally the final...... It's hard to say, but in short, let's prepare for the first two games. ”
"There's a lot of time to prepare for the semi-finals and finals, so there's no need to rush."
The EDG crowd nodded.
Now that the draw is over, they're ready to leave.
At this time, the door of the lounge was pushed open, and the factory director walked in
I saw the factory director teasing: "How is my luck?" Perfectly avoided RNG, now you can rest assured. ”
After hearing this, the sister said with a smile: "We are relieved, but I feel that RNG probably wants to cry, and I actually met ROX directly." ”
Director: "Rox? What's the problem? Do you think it's not difficult to play the first place in the four group stages? ”
As soon as the factory director asked, the sister also found out about this problem, and now these four groups are the first, and none of them are easy to bully.
For RNG, it is already a good choice to encounter ROX, which is better than encountering EDG.
EDG everyone returned to the hotel, and Chen Luoyang went straight to his room.
It's already past nine o'clock in the evening, so we have to hurry.
Chen Luoyang was about to start the ranking, taking advantage of the gap in the queue, Chen Luoyang took a look at the leaderboard, and found that semb had played for another day!
Using this day, SMBE forcibly controlled the score gap at about 100 points.
This seems to be a big lead, Chen Luoyang is not in a hurry, he doesn't believe that after the quarterfinals start to play, SMEB still has this gap to talk about so much time to rank.
Chen Luoyang played until three o'clock in the middle of the night before resting, there is no game tomorrow, the first game of the quarterfinals is EDG, but it will not start until three days later.
One night, Chen Luoyang narrowed the gap to 70 points, and the problem was thrown to SMEB.
Chen Luoyang noticed that SMEB has also been fighting.
At the same time, Chen Luoyang saw a lot of discussions on the Internet about Samsung's elimination in the group stage.
Most of them are gloating and clapping, of course, there are also people who feel that there is a problem, thinking that Samsung cannot lose to C9, which may be some shady.
In fact, in a game of this level as the S competition, it is impossible to have shady scenes, it is purely that the skills are not as good as others.
At the same time, Chen Luoyang saw a lot of interesting statements, all of which were translated from the LCK, what made Samsung swim back, thinking that they did not have the right to take a plane, and even drew a road map for swimming.
There are also those who let Samsung disband, and those who let Samsung kneel down and admit their mistakes, these are relatively minor.
Chen Luoyang is just a bystander now, after all, EDG won C9, so it is not to blame that Samsung Bai eliminated others.
Early the next morning, after Chen Luoyang got up, he chose to take a look at SMEB's ranking last night.
It turned out that SMEB was divided all night!
And the reason for this all-night seems quite simple, he first lost three in a row, and in order to make up for these points, he can only keep playing.
Through this night's hard work, the score gap between the two has come to about 100 again.
Chen Luoyang still doesn't plan to disrupt his own rhythm, how others want to score is their own business, Chen Luoyang has his own rhythm.
Three days passed quickly, and the quarterfinals began!
The first BO5 was EDG vs. G2, so after lunch, EDG everyone got on the bus and came to the game.
Before the game started, Chen Luoyang received the cheers and support of many fans.
Chen Luoyang can basically go back, and Chen Luoyang knows the details of G2.
In this team, if there is no rhythm in the mid lane and jungler, the others are basically waiting to die.
So it's very important to suppress their midfield rhythm!
The EDG group went to the break room, and after putting away all their personal belongings, the first five sat around Abu.
Abu said: "G2 is an appetizer, we already know their style of play very well, and we have played so many training matches, so we know the roots, as long as we play normally, it should be easy to win the game." ”
The director agreed: "G2 doesn't have much to worry about, they Nakano is the engine, we arranged the field of vision near the middle lane in the early stage, and just suppressed them Nakano." ”
The junior brother nodded after hearing this, he didn't express his opinion, anyway, he did what his teammates said, especially the words of the factory director, he would basically listen to it.
At the game site, on the commentary seat, the doll and Miller were ready.
I saw the doll explainer: "What is about to start is the quarterfinals of this World Finals, with EDG facing G2!" ”
"The players have already begun to appear, and the first to appear is the king from the LPL region, EDG!"
The applause at the scene was thunderous, and cheers came one after another.
Now EDG has gained a lot of foreign fans by relying on its wonderful performance in the S match.
On the playing field, Chen Luoyang was following others from EDG on stage.
After a brief presentation, they went to their respective positions and began to debug the equipment.
After everyone confirmed that their devices were fine, BP began.
In this case, EDG is on the red side, and G2 is on the blue side.
As soon as he came up, G2 directly pressed Quinn, Clay and Lucian, giving him enough respect.
Seeing this ban person, the doll analyzed: "Now I know that I want to target EDG's road, but I have never succeeded, and now I spend three ban positions, I don't feel like there will be any difference in fighting." ”
Miller: "Now that we have entered the stage of hero selection, I feel that EDG will not make an order on the fourth floor in front, but will pinch this ultimate to the end, and it is safest for the Conte position to be given to the sect leader." ”
As everyone was talking, BP was coming to an end.
G2's lineup has been decided, and EDG still has no choice for Chen Luoyang's top laner.
Abu walked behind Chen Luoyang and asked; "What do you want on the road?"
Chen Luoyang looked at the lineup on the opposite side and gave his own answer: "Get me a Raven." ”
"Raven? Okay, then Raven. Abu chose to trust Chen Luoyang's judgment.
So the sister locked a hand of Raven on the fifth floor, and the moment Raven locked it, the audience became restless.
There are not many people playing this hero even if it is a passerby, and the difficulty of operation is too high.
Everyone didn't expect that Raven would be able to appear on the stage of the S competition!
The line-ups of both sides are fully confirmed:
EDG Red Square:
Top laner Raven, Jungler Keg, Mid laner Sindra, ADC Lucian, Support Titan.
G2 Blue Square:
Top single Rambo, jungler blind monk, mid single clockwork, ADC cold ice, auxiliary Japanese girl.
Seeing this lineup, the doll analyzed: "Purely from the lineup, I feel that G2 will have a bigger chance of winning, their lineup is very solid, what do you want, the first hand and backhand are very good." ”
"And EDG's lineup, it feels a bit tightrope, if it weren't for their team name, I would definitely not be optimistic about this lineup at all."
Miller: "I can only say that this is EDG, this is the master, you can never predict who he will use to hit the road, you can completely ignore the version of the man!" ”
Doll: "Anyway, I like both sides to play at the level they should have and put on a good game." ”
As the two were talking, the game had begun.
Chen Luoyang chose Duolan Sword to go out, this time it was against Rambo, and there was no saying that it was attritional, it was a wave.
Rambo's hero is actually quite strong against the line, especially in the red and warm state, and few heroes can stand with him in the early stage.
When he came to the upper half of the wild area to stand guard, Chen Luoyang saw that there was no intention of invading on the other side, so he returned to the upper road and began to align the line.
On the other side, Rambo also appeared, and Rambo didn't take the initiative to push the line, as if he wanted to control the line and play slowly.
