Chapter 440: Let's Fight! Quarterfinals!
"Oh my God? Is it really Team SKT? The doll was obviously taken aback.
"Brother, your mouth does seem to have opened up." Miller teased slightly, but didn't have any worries.
As for the barrage?
γTurtle turtle? Did you meet SKT so early? If SKT is eliminated in advance, how can the domestic Han Za live, and his father will die in the quarterfinals. γ
[Hee-hee-hee, Han Za also has something to say, my barbecue stall is known for its slow heat, and I met it in the quarterfinals, and this is to cheat, to sneak attack! ] Don't talk about martial arts, sneak attack my two-time champion barbecue stand. γ
[It can only be said that Han Za is so good at pinching, SKT was eliminated early, and it is also a good thing for Han Za to shut up early. γ
[Laughing to death, what about the director? ] Director! Hurry up and give a close-up, I just want to see how those people in SKT react, whether it is more uncomfortable than eating. γ
[It's not certain who will be eliminated by whom, so I like to open champagne in the half, right? ] γ
[Come on, come on, who will review Han Za, what is the historical record of Taobo in the face of SKT?? ] γ
[Get out of the way!] I pee yellow, let me wake up this group of Han Za living in a dream! γ
If this had been a year or two ago, let alone meeting SKT in the knockout round of the quarterfinals, even if an LPL team was in a group with SKT in the group stage, the audience and commentators in the LPL region would feel extremely uncomfortable.
Can now??
The unrivalled dominance of the arena and the personal dominance of Lee Han-sung!
sktοΌοΌ
Lee Sang-hyuk??
You TM claim to be the elite of LCK, right?
Labor and management are fighting for the elite!
No one in the whole competition area will feel panicked at all, but will feel happy.
on stage.
Wolf's expression on behalf of the team was obviously frozen all of a sudden, this little fat man was still talking and laughing with Greila on the side, but after seeing the result of this lottery, he couldn't laugh in an instant.
Instead, Grayla gloated.
Fighting is the biggest obstacle in their way to winning the championship, although Dragon Ball and Fighting are in the same half, and there will always be a semi-final at the latest.
Available before the semi-finals.
There is a veteran like SKT who is strong enough and experienced enough in the field to clear himself in front.
As long as SKT is a little stronger, force out a little bit of the hole cards.
Wouldn't it be more confident for them??
The draw for Leng Shao is still ongoing.
However, the suspense of the quarterfinals draw is that the more you get to the back, the smaller it gets, basically after the first group of duels appears, you can guess seven, seven, eight or eight in the follow-up.
Since Tao Bo and Dragon Ball are in the top half, it means that their opponents are only likely to be the second seeds from groups C and D.
Now that the second seed in Group D, SKT, has been drawn by the Rush, ...... Dragon Ball's opponents have already been officially decided, as according to the principle of avoiding the semi-finals in the same group, their opponents are only likely to be the second-seeded Rabbit team MSF from the European region.
Dragon Ball's representative, Grela, also grinned.
Judging from the performance of the four teams, the MSF Rabbits can be said to be the weakest of the four teams, and they are not stable in the semi-finals?
Now the only suspense is in the second half.
Therefore......
The draw for Leng Shao is still going on.
"Judging from the current situation, G2 and TSM, I think RNG is the best choice to draw G2, we all know that the absolute strength of RNG is in the lower lane, and TSM's lower lane is IMP, in comparison, it is still G2's newcomer Teddy is better to deal with." Miller is speaking a word of conscience.
Gu Chengbin is not afraid of Uzi, and even knows that you are Uzi, and he fights even harder.
I like a quote from the anchor very much.
Hit Uzi.
Bo5 has never lost.
Under the gaze of everyone, Leng Shao once again put his hand into the glass jar, stirred the ball to roll rapidly, and then picked up one of them.
Twist it open and take a look!
It's really RNG!
Their opponent in the quarterfinals is Team G2!
That's it.
The matchup in the quarterfinals has been officially determined.
In the first half, Thunder vs. SKT, and Dragon Ball vs. MSF.
In the second half, G2 vs. RNG, and TSM vs. Samsung.
"This grouping situation should be quite acceptable for our LPL division, and if we encounter SKT in poor form in advance, we can send away one of the competitors who won the championship in advance."
"RNG also has the hope of reaching the semi-finals, and the most perfect match is undoubtedly that Taobo and RNG will meet in the finals."
"In the first half of the region, there is a great hope of making it to the finals, whether it is SKT or Dragon Ball, they almost have no chance of winning against Taobo, and in the second half, RNG needs to work hard."
The audience in the LPL division naturally hopes to replicate the famous scene at the peak of the LCK division.
It's about turning the World Championship into a civil war in your own region.
This is also a perfect embodiment of the strength of the competition area!
Ren Dong on the stage spoke again, "The final match of the top eight has been officially determined, and we will move to Guangzhou next, where we will witness the wonderful showdown brought to us by the eight teams!"
β
This also heralds the end of the lottery ceremony.
For Taobo, there is nothing unacceptable about such a result.
At least it won't be a civil war between teams in the same division.
The Mighty is arguably the most confident team facing SKT in the world.
No way.
Since the establishment of the team, it has never lost against SKT, and it is difficult to have such a historical record without confidence.
Next, Taobo also needs to rush to Guangzhou as soon as possible.
Because the quarterfinals will be staged at the Guangzhou Gymnasium.
There will still be a few days of rest in between, but this time will not be used to prepare for the competition, and it will also need to cooperate with the official filming of various promotional materials and promotional videos for the quarterfinals.
And after the lottery ceremony, the people just returned to the hotel.
The director of the factory came to the door and said that he would do his best to take Li Hansheng and them to experience the night market in Wuhan and eat supper.
Li Hansheng and others did not refuse.
The crowd found a roadside food stall near the hotel.
It can be seen that the factory director is not in a good mood, and Li Hansheng and they try to avoid talking about the competition.
But now that the highlight of League of Legends circles is the ongoing Worlds, how can you avoid it?
The factory director looked at them with envy in his eyes and said with emotion, "I really envy you for being able to continue fighting." β
Jack's emotional intelligence is still very high, and he immediately answered, "You can also fight with us, and everyone will encourage each other." β
"You kid......" The director shook his head with a smile, "Don't be so careful, do I look like the kind of person who collapses because he loses?" β
"Hey, I know that!" Jack suddenly smiled, "Who doesn't know that my factory director is famous for his good mentality?" β
"Jack, can you speak??" Li Hansheng suddenly glared, "The factory director is also called by you?" Call me Nanachi-chan!
β
The factory director's face suddenly darkened, "Li Hansheng, you are a disgusting person, right??" β
The crowd burst into laughter.
After eating for a while, the factory director took the initiative to speak again, mainly looking at the young people Jack, "This person, it seems that he will become very nagging when he gets older?" When I see a few of you, I always want to talk to you. β
"Next, you have to play hard, don't miss such a great opportunity, your career path is much smoother than the average person, not everyone can make their debut, there are players of the level of Li Hansheng and Gao Dewei to grow up with you."
"Don't take winning for granted, for the vast majority of players, failure is the two words that run through their entire careers."
In fact.
The director of the factory is more envious.
His style and his style of play is not the kind of play that is absolutely central.
Rather than being the core, he prefers to be a father, that is, to let others carry himself.
However, when you meet the right person, there is no right version.
And finally waiting for the correct version, but it is already a matter of fact.
Again, that's the same sentence.
In the team event, if you want to win the championship, you really have to have the right time, the right place and the right people.
"Brother Hansheng doesn't know how many times he's told us like that." Jack rolled his eyes, "What?" Are we so obvious? You don't take winning games seriously, do you? β
"Gao Tianliang, Shi Senming is okay, Yu Wenbo, your kid's style of play is the most casual!" The factory director shook his head, "Your style of play with a sword going sideways, it doesn't matter if you have Li Hansheng and Gao Dewei to give you a back, but when one day the team needs you to provoke the beams and let you take the absolute C position, your style of play is a huge burden for the entire team." β
"Well." Jack waved his hand disapprovingly, "This kind of thing will be considered spicy in the future, at least now I just need to be a little brother with peace of mind." β
"So...... You're lucky. The director of the factory once again expressed such feelings.
He was feeling.
But if Yu Wenbo, a kid, goes to a slightly weaker team to play a career for a year, it is impossible to say such a thing.
But......
There's nothing wrong with that.
People can be teammates with Li Hansheng, they have this capital and this condition.
What is there to say??
The factory director didn't want to continue to persuade again, but looked at Li Hansheng, "How about it, this year's championship should also be aspiring, right?" You're so crazy, you must be thinking about winning the championship and becoming the only one in history. β
"Hey, congratulations!" Li Hansheng nodded immediately, "If you don't win the championship at the door, you can't be sprayed to death by the audience and fans?" β
γ
The director of the "............" factory darkened again, but he also knew that Li Hansheng was not targeting him.
He directly raised his cup, "Then I will wish you all the best!" Let's do it! β
Look at him like this.
Li Hansheng and the others actually had a sentence that they wanted to say, but they held back.
Waited until the way back.
Jack took the initiative to speak, "The factory director is a little wrong today, why does it feel like he is explaining the future?" β
"Jack, you kid can shut up if you can't speak." Shi Senming rolled his eyes, "The factory director is obviously good, why do you want to send people away directly as soon as you speak??" β
"." Jack immediately retorted, "I mean, the director doesn't really want to retire, does he?" β
"Isn't it normal to retire? He is already 24 years old, which is rare to play professionally at this age. β
"What a pity...... Didn't he always want to win a World Championship? β
"So, why do you think the factory director told you so much? People just envy us, and they have the opportunity to win the championship when they debut, and the director is right, not everyone can be as lucky as us, for professional players, maybe failure is the real theme. β
Li Hansheng didn't know what the factory director thought.
However, this series of abnormal behaviors may represent that the factory director really has the idea of retiring.
At least he's trying to reconcile with himself.
Convince yourself to give up your obsession with the championship.
In itself, he has relied on this obsession to support himself for high-intensity training to maintain his state.
Once that string is loosened, it's almost impossible to continue it.
Older players in esports must rely on high-intensity training to maintain their condition.
Otherwise?
Look at Uzi, when the S9 World Championship was still at the top level in the world, the S12 comeback was pressed by a doggo and couldn't play.
Isn't it because during the period of retirement, the trivial things of life, getting married, and having children involved him too much energy, so he didn't continue to train to maintain his own state? ?
For Li Hansheng.
There is no factory director.
LPL does have a lot less to look at.
But that's the reality.
LPL will not stop because of his departure, the old man leaves, there is always a new person to replace him, and the old and the new alternate This is an eternal law.
Who lives without a little regret?
Even Gao Dewei is the envy of the factory director.
Gao Dewei did have regrets when he was young and frivolous, but he made up for this regret through his own efforts.
But the director?
There is a high probability that it is destined to be unable to make up for this regret.
Taobo did not stay in Wuhan for long, and the day after the draw for the quarterfinals, the whole team assembled and went to Guangzhou.
The next few days.
The whole team tried their best to cooperate with Riot in the filming of the promotional video.
is a home game in itself, and Li Hansheng is the top name again.
He took a lot of personal footage alone, which took up a lot of time.
This even drew the resentment of Redmi.
He felt that such an official behavior seriously affected Taobo's preparations.
But it can't be helped.
Who made Lee Han-sung a star player?
The short four-day truce was fleeting.
October 19th.
The quarterfinals are about to kick off!
And the match between Taobo and SKT is scheduled for the 19th!
On the afternoon of the 19th.
The surroundings of the Guangzhou Stadium are overcrowded!
The players of Taobo and SKT came to the game early.
This side of the front desk.
As a result of entering the knockout stage!
In addition to the commentary seat, there is also a pre-match analysis seat, which is an official invitation for some retired players to warm up before the game.
Considering that Taobo has only been established for less than two years, there is no famous place to retire at all.
Therefore......
The official can only invite Condi and Greenhair to come over as analysis guests.
"Welcome to the 2017 League of Legends World Championship quarterfinals! The two sides that will face off today are Taobo and SKT! This is also recognized as the most interesting match in the quarterfinals! β
