The MSI Full Name Mid-Season Championship invites the top teams from each regional group to participate in the competition.

If you look at the lineup, the gold content of MSI is second only to the S competition.

The teams in the five major regions do not need to play the play-in rounds, and the same is naturally true for the EDG of the LPL.

So, the moment EDG stepped on the plane, the play-in tournament was over.

After the quota is confirmed, the six teams participating in the group stage are: EDG, FW, SKT, G2, GAM, and TSM.

……

The plane landed, and EDG and his entourage also arrived in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Different from the traditional architectural style in China, Brazil adopts more European architectural style.

Moreover, the colors are bright and the style is unique.

It was the first time for Yez to come abroad, and along the way, he suddenly felt that his eyes were wide open, and it was worth the trip.

Soon, everyone came to the place where the players were training and resting.

These logistical tasks have long been arranged, and although they are not as good as domestic bases, they are more than enough to be a temporary base.

"Accommodation, accommodation and food are arranged, and if you are not used to eating local food, you can go to Chinese restaurants to eat."

Speaking of this, Ab paused and reminded: "Of course, some things should not be eaten indiscriminately. ”

Several members of the EDG team smiled.

The sister whispered to Yez: "Do you know what you can't eat?" ”

Isn't it just beef noodles, I already knew it.

Thinking so in his heart, Ye Zi was silent on the surface: "What? ”

The sister said mysteriously: "You don't know this? It's beef noodles, don't eat them. ”

"Why?"

"Your predecessor, who used to be an officially certified Shiyiju, has now entered the factory because he ate a bowl of beef noodles."

"Huh? Such an evil sect? Yez feigned surprise.

At this time, several other EDG team members also advised him not to believe in evil, otherwise Nami would be a lesson for him.

Even Abu came over and said solemnly: "You must not eat beef noodles!" ”

“……”

Yez is speechless, you are blatantly propagating feudal superstition, you know?

However, there are indeed metaphysical claims in the esports circle.

The team that eliminates the rat king will win the championship, the team that eliminated the factory director will be cool, the player who eats beef noodles will pull his hips, and the team that takes the strawberry blood will lose the game......

The last one is Guan Zeyuan's poisoned milk.

Although Yez is an atheist, he will not try beef noodles in order to verify metaphysics.

After eating, it was getting late, and Abu did not let the team train again.

MSI has a tight schedule, and continuing to train has little effect, so it is better to take this opportunity to let the players adjust their state and relax.

That night, Abu announced the schedule.

The first game was their match, against the FW in the LMS region, which is the Lightning Wolves.

"The Flash Wolves team is not much different from us, and we need to pay attention to their midfielders, especially the player named Karsa, who has the same style as the factory director, and is a jungler with excellent map control.

Of course, we have an advantage in the lower road.

Ye Zimei buckled, it still depends on you to play to fight the lightning wolf, have confidence? ”

"Yes."

The two replied casually.

In fact, there is no need for Abu to say, they also know how to fight.

Lightning Wolf and EDG are old rivals, and everyone is familiar with Lightning Wolf.

Although Yez is a newcomer, he knows Lightning Wolf better than everyone present.

Even so, Yez had to admit that the current lightning wolf was the pinnacle.

Except for MMD, the rest of the Lightning Wolves team members are not weak, especially their Nakano Karsa and Maple.

At this time, Maple has not yet pulled his crotch, and he often plays a brilliant operation in the World Championship.

Not to mention Casa, which was still hot until S12.

As for the lightning wolf down the road...... In Yetz's opinion, it is a medium-to-upper combination, and it is mainly the command of the snake snake that adds a lot of color to the bottom lane.

This lightning wolf is known as the Anti-Korean Wonder Hero, and often takes out LCK teams in bo1.

Therefore, in the eyes of the outside world, it was a tough battle to fight the lightning wolf at the beginning.

However, this is measured by EDG's previous strength, and now EDG has Yetz joined, and mouse's strength has also improved.

In this way, the lightning wolf is a little underwhelming.

"Let's talk about the competition system, the group stage system is a double round-robin BO1, and the top four teams in points advance to the knockout round......"

Abu chattered about the schedule, and the players in the audience fell asleep.

After Abu finished reading, he found that the team members were almost asleep, and their faces were also dark.

"Go to bed and go back to your room to sleep, if you don't play well tomorrow, see how I clean you up."

When the words fell, Ye Zi and the others hurriedly disappeared.

……

Next.

After a night's rest, everyone was in good spirits and back to their peak.

Abu led the team to the competition venue.

"Come on, EDG! Come on, EDG! ”

"This is God Z? Real people are so handsome. ”

"The pot head... It's the factory director! ”

Even abroad, there are still EDG fans cheering for EDG.

Among them, many foreign girls kept looking at Yezi, with a fiery and bold look in their eyes.

Seeing Yez looking over, some of them licked their lips with their tongues, and the hearts of those who watched were on fire.

"She's probably thirsty." Yetz thought.

Enter the venue.

It can be seen that Brazil has put a lot of thought into the arrangement.

However, this venue is not much different from the Wukesong venue, or even slightly inferior, which makes Yez quite disappointed.

Opening Ceremony.

The music sounded, and the gongs and drums were beating again on stage.

"What the hell, all the bells and whistles, let's get started!"

On the barrage, the audience was already impatient and sprayed directly.

It seems that the cries of the masses have been heard, and the chaotic links are finally over.

Immediately afterwards, the EDG players and the lightning wolf players entered separately.

The host began to introduce the team members in a strong voice.

At the same time, posters of both teams also appeared on the big screen.

"Huh?"

At this time, the LPL audience noticed that something was wrong.

Normally, the EDG poster would have the factory director standing in the center of the C position, but now......

"Z God is on the throne?"

"! EDG is going to cultivate Z God as the core. ”

"Reasonable, EDG's new AD is not like that."

"In that case...... Z God can still broadcast live. ”

I have to say that the audience's eyes are bright, and from a small position, they can infer a lot of things.

After a series of tedious processes, the players on both sides were finally able to enter the bench.

During this period, the players of both teams glanced at each other.

Yez's eyes flashed.

He found that the other party was very fierce, and the look in his eyes when he looked at them was the kind of eyes that were clearly looking at the weak.

Even, Maple's mouth tugged at the corners of his mouth, as if he was disdainful.

The teammates obviously felt it, and Mouse couldn't help but say: "Just a few of them stinky fish and rotten shrimp, and they dare to look down on us?" ”

Sister button: "They are called Dad." ”

Factory director: "Let's be serious, let's speak with strength." ”

Originally, I thought that I was born from the same root, and I would be done with a casual fight, but after this little episode, everyone became obviously serious.

"Yezi, no problem."

"Huh." Ye Zi sneered, and then said: "Be steady, try to see if you can play a Linglong Tower in the first game." ”

"Uh......"

The teammates were speechless, even if the lightning wolf was not a top echelon team, it was also the second echelon, and Linglong Tower was too much.

However, when they thought of the eyes of several members of the Lightning Wolf team, they also lost their temper.

On the players' seats, the players of both sides began to debug the equipment.

……

The gaze came to the commentary seat.

Each region has its own commentary.

On the LPL side, there are three people in today's commentary, namely rita, hallucinogenic and remember.

Needless to say, Rita is one of the four golden flowers, the chief vase of the commentary session, and the appearance is outstanding.

Hallucination is the commentary with the highest game comprehension among the three, and my game is also in the master rank.

It can be seen that the official also put a lot of effort into this MSI debut, and arranged a combination of vase + field control + game analysis.

Remember: "Hello everyone, welcome to the EDG vs. Lightning Wolves game, I am the commentator of this game." ”

"I'm Rita."

"I'm hallucinating."

After introducing themselves, the three of them began to chat.

Remember: "I heard that the team of the Lightning Wolves has been very strong recently, and it takes twelve points of spirit to fight against them EDG." ”

Rita: "Yes. ”

Hallucination: "Actually, don't worry too much, I've watched the games on both sides, EDG's bottom lane duo is obviously stronger than the opponent's bottom lane duo, and it just so happens that EDG is a team with the bottom lane as the core.

As long as EDG's bottom lane advantage can be brought into play, the first game is still very easy to win. ”

Remember: "Hopefully EDG can get off to a good start and have a good debut." ”

During the commentary, the equipment of both sides was debugged.

BP starts.

In this game, EDG is on the blue side and Lightning Wolf is on the red side.

Hallucination: "The blue side generally has a higher win rate than the red side, so let's take the lead by picking the side and see what EDG wants to ban firsthand." ”

Sindra.

On the screen, Sindra enters the ban position, which is Maple's hero with the highest win rate.

Immediately after, the lightning wolf banned the male gun and Karma.

No problem, both heroes are regular bans.

EDG's second- and third-hand ban Demon Jie La, and the lightning wolf's third-hand ban drops Lulu.

At this point, the first round of bans is over.

Remember: "The Lightning Wolves banned a two-handed assist in the first round and wanted to target EDG to go down. ”

Rita: "EDG is the best at extending the advantage from the bottom lane, and Lightning Wolves are smart. ”

Hallucination: "It should be a team that has studied EDG, EDG is the team with the most soft supports, and now Karma Lulu is ban, EDG should consider selecting people in the lower lane, whether to grab the support first." ”

However, hallucinogenic this time was a miscalculation.

As soon as the words fell, Calista appeared on the screen.

"It's coming!"

"Z God's signature skateboard shoes."

"It's outrageous that the lightning wolf dares to put skateboard shoes, and no one in the LPL team dares to put them."

Seeing Calista's appearance, the audience began to send barrages one after another, excited.

In the LPL, Yez's Calista has a saying.

As long as he gets this hero, he can basically penetrate the opposite side.

Therefore, Calista has become his signature hero.

The LPL team will hardly give him this hero.

Now, the lightning wolf has released Calista, how can the audience not be excited?

I remember laughing: "The lightning wolf is not doing his homework well, as soon as Calista puts this hand, I think EDG is stable." ”

"The lightning wolf is too pretty."

In the EDG team, several team members were also stunned, and there were really people who didn't believe in evil and dared to release Yez's op hero.

But Yez himself knows that it is not the lightning wolf suit, but the difference between the divisions.

Each region has its own unique style of play, and the LMS is no different.

The lineup that may explode in the LPL is not cared for at all in the LMS.

After all, the game is understood differently, and the results are different.

At this time, the lightning wolf chooses heroes - grasshoppers, blind monks.

EDG's second- and third-hand options - spiders and crocodiles, and the third-hand choice of lightning wolves - Verus.

The two sides went back and forth, and there was little pause.

Remember: "Both sides chose their own people, and did not interfere with the other party's selection." ”

Rita: "Yes, in terms of the first three selections, the lineups on both sides are relatively good. ”

“……”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was speechless.

What do you mean by being good? It's not nonsense.

Hallucination: "The confrontation between the two teams is relatively strong, and besides, EDG's choice of Calista feels like a trick. ”

Medium?

Everyone was shocked and didn't understand what hallucinogenic meant.

Hallucination didn't sell off, and explained directly: "Calista doesn't have a long hand, and I'm most afraid of running into a lineup with strong consumption ability, and Lightning Wolf chose Grasshopper and Verus in the next lane, not to mention the two heroes, who have strong consumption ability......"

Speaking of which, everyone also understood the meaning of hallucination.

Rita frowned and said, "Is the lightning wolf deliberately not banning Calista, and then letting EDG grab it first?" ”

"Quite possibly."

I remember thinking about it for a while, and I also think that the hallucinogenic theory is more reasonable.

After all, judging by the previous ban people, Lightning Wolf definitely has research on EDG.

In that case, how could the lightning wolf not know about Yezkarlista's record?

The reason for not banning is naturally because the lightning wolf has the confidence to deal with Calista.

Sensing that BP was put on the table, everyone's hearts sank.

Sure enough, the World Championship is the World Championship, and the intensity is far from being comparable to the domestic league, and even BP has so many scenes.

In the EDG team, Nofe's face was ugly.

Now he is also reacting that he may have fallen into the rhythm of the other party.

"Leaves, can you hold on?"

The lightning wolf was obviously heading down the road, and Nofe was a little worried that Yez would be tricked.

Yez looked calm: "It's okay, I, Callista, will kill them casually." ”

“……”

Nofe thought that Yez was comforting him, but as everyone knows, this is what Yez is thinking.

Heroes who have only been released once in the S7 World Championship, if they are so easy to be Canter, they are not worthy of being called the son of the version.

The first round of BP ends, and the second round of BP begins.

The second round is much faster than the first.

The lightning wolf first bans Tamu and the nurse, and EDG bans the barrel and Shen.

Immediately after, Lightning Wolf chooses the hero - Rambo, and EDG chooses the heroes - Wind Girl and Rock Sparrow.

"Ness!" I remember excitedly: "EDG has a good lineup, and these two choices are really the finishing touch." ”

Illusion couldn't help but echo: "The middle and upper heroes are relatively fast in the early stage, and it is easy to cooperate with the rock sparrow skill, and the spider has a lot of room to do things." ”

"Look at what the lightning wolf made up for the last time, if I'm not mistaken, I should also make up for the support type of heroes."

The words fell, and the lightning wolf Kante locked on to Ruiz.

Sure enough, it was Ryz...... The crowd was impressed.

With Ruiz locked, the lineups of both sides were also confirmed.

EDG, blue square.

Top order: crocodile

Jungler: Spider

Mid laner: Rock Sparrow

Down: Calista

Support: Wind Girl

Lightning wolf, red side.

Top order: Rambo

Jungler: Blind Monk

Mid laner: Ruiz

Down: Verus

Support: Grasshopper

Players swap heroes for each other.

When the countdown ends, the game goes into loading.

EDG's match against the Lightning Wolves has finally begun!
