……

On the evening of October 15,

In a luxurious restaurant in a private room,

"Oooo

"Cheers, Cheers,"

"Peng~"

In the noisy tavern, it has been officially chartered by LPL, and the three teams are specially celebrated to enter the quarterfinals together.

This is also an unprecedented feat, in the top eight, there are three domestic teams, three cold country teams, and two European and American teams.

In particular, RNG and WE are the number one seeds in their respective groups!

After a two-year dark season,

LPL has finally ushered in the harvest moment, and online friends can really confidently say, "This is our most promising year." ”

"Contestant Su Chen, contestant Su Chen, I am your fan, can I invite you to take a photo?"

"Su Bao!! Auntie has watched you grow all the way, and you will never refuse us? ”

"Come on, come on......"

"Uh... Hmm..."

Looking at Su Chen, he was like a piece of Tang monk meat, being touched and pinched in the pile of female goblins with smiling faces......

Looking down at the braised pork in the bowl, Lin Weixiang put it down quickly, hugged his head with envy and hatred and wailed, "Can the gap between people and people not be so big?" ”

"Haha, Lin Weixiang, after all, you are playing a triple crown, and it is enough to suppress the No. 1 seed FNC in Europe and the United States to advance."

Thinking that Lin Weixiang was in pain from losing the game, the doll took a sip of his wine glass, hugged his shoulder, and comforted: "In the past few years, our team was able to have no accidents in the group stage, and I would be thankful for advancing to the second place, who would blame you?" ”

That's true,

In 15, the No. 1 seed and No. 3 seed were eliminated in the group stage, and in 16, the No. 3 seed was eliminated in the group stage, and the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds only advanced in second place.

Compared to today's situation, it is a world of difference.

"This kind of blissful distress I want to experience for the rest of my life."

Miller's nose was sour, and he sighed even more, feeling that he had finally come out of his years of bitterness.

His love for LPL extends beyond his work.

It will follow the cries of victory, the cries of defeat, and the grief and indignation of despair......

Finally...... Finally......

This year has given him a real light at the end of the tunnel!

"Lin Weixiang, you are all our LP L heroes!"

Miller's eyes were moist, and he held Lin Weixiang's hand.

"Vonima, there is still a sticker ?!!"

Catching a glimpse of the flowers behind Miller, Lin Weixiang's eyes were split, and jealousy made him unrecognizable.

Looking at Lin Weixiang's red eyes, Miller was even more moved and relieved.

Look at the current players, how deep their love for LPL is!

There are successors of our generation!!

"Sisters, after filming, can I go?"

"Contestant Su Chen, why don't you stay here and eat together?"

"No, no, no, I'll have to see the lottery later."

After that, Su Chen didn't wait for them to reply, found a gap, and quickly returned to the team.

"Brother Xiang, why are you crying?"

Comfortably returning to his seat, Su Chen casually glanced and asked in surprise.

"It's okay, it's spicy."

Lin Weixiang held the food strongly.

"Okay."

Su Chen took a piece of vegetable and put it in his bowl, "Then you eat a little more bitter gourd and lose the fire." ”

Lin Weixiang: "......"

"Babies, there are still 10 minutes left for the quarterfinals draw ceremony to start, cheer up!"

Xiaohu's iconic voice clearly entered everyone's ears.

This also made the originally relaxed and pleasant restaurant a little more nervous.

Currently, the four groups of teams that have made the cut are as follows:

Group A: RNG, SSG

Group B: SKT, NB

Group C: WE, G2

Group D: LZ, C9

thereinto

Although SSG was defeated by RNG in the group stage, it still defeated TSM in overtime and advanced to the second place.

Among the 6 teams from China and South Korea, they have been ranked at the bottom by the spectators on both sides.

Of course, the penultimate is NB.

The two teams are brothers.

As for Group C, G2 accumulated a lot of experience, defeated the Lightning Wolves in overtime, and successfully qualified for the second place.

Group D is also the least suspenseful group,

In six games, LZ played a strong dominance of the LCK No. 1 seed, almost leading the economy by five or six thousand in 20 minutes.

】

The existence of five players in the same position, the existence of the top of the various data lists, is also the only time in history that foreign media can willingly rank SKT in the second place.

LPL players are still a little fortunate to exist in their hearts.

If it's not SKT in the same group as NB, but LZ, then it's a lot of fun.

Especially the contradiction between Su Chen and Khan first, with the blessing of this buff, who is losing the game, it is not an exaggeration to say that the public opinion caused by the tsunami of accusations and abuse.

"Look, let's take a look, the draw has begun."

Xiao Ming, who is optimistic, pointed to the screen excitedly.

Time

The crowded restaurant became quiet, and everyone held their breath to welcome the lottery ceremony that was a matter of life and death!

……

"Welcome everyone to watch, the 2017 World Finals quarterfinals group draw ceremony, I am the commentator Ren Dong."

Today's Brother Dong, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, full of red light, the three LPL teams entered the quarterfinals, which undoubtedly earned enough face for their commentary and hosting.

Therefore, for this joyful moment, the official specially brought the lucky star of the LPL lottery - Smile, and also brought it.

I have to say,

Even if the three teams advance together, no audience thinks that the lottery is good.

From that day on,

Piggy's live broadcast room is being sprayed every day, but it has also increased a lot of heat, which is painful and happy.

"Hello everyone, I'm smiling."

The king waved his hand at the camera and walked to the center of the stage where the draw was placed.

"Hopefully... Hope you give me good luck. ”

Taking a deep breath, the king closed his eyes and took out a purple ball, and without pretending to drag, he opened it directly in front of everyone.

According to the official lottery rules,

First of all, the opponent of Group A RNG is naturally drawn, and secondly, the second SSG of this group must be eliminated, and the opponent encountered in each group can only be the second seed of the other three groups.

It is equivalent to choosing one from each of the three teams NB, G2, and C9.

In the eyes of fans of the royal family, no matter who you fight, you will win!

And in the eyes of the players,

"No civil war, no civil war, no civil war!"

Nervously clenched his fists, Xiao Ming read words.

Su Chen was his best friend, and no matter who won or lost between the two, he couldn't accept it.

"C9 and G2 are just one!"

Xiaohu and others thought the same.

Civil War escort way, they don't want!

finally

Smiling, his chest heaving, he made up his mind to twist the colored ball, and a shadow warrior with a black base and a patchwork of white stripes appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

“g2！！”

"Nice !!"

"Hahaha, I think G2 is worse than C9, the brothers are stable in the top four!!"

The sound of joy was endless, and the RNG players high-fived excitedly.

In particular, the official camera also recorded an interesting scene.

At the first sight of the G2 team logo,

Xiao Ming, Emperor Rang and Xiangguo, who reacted the fastest, smiled very happily.

And the little tiger who wanted to laugh out loud peeked at the puppy with a dull expression.

The next second,

"Haha, it's G2."

"Aha, it's G2!!"

The reacting puppy then laughed, and Xiaohu followed this rhythm, slapped his thighs with both hands, and leaned back and forth in laughter, almost shaking the chair.

"Haha, when did Li Yuanhao become so abstract?"

"The second laugh is all out, cowhide."

"Is this the deterrent power of the Dog Emperor?"

Some viewers who watched the live broadcast recorded this hand-me-down classic.

The draw continues,

Dawang drew the C9 team for SKT as an opponent in the semi-finals.

Then the next draw,

It is to decide where the last two teams belong!

"We're next."

Su Chen exhaled slightly, and the hearts of the stateless others were also raised.

RNG and SKT are not in the range of options, so the next WE and LZ will be their opponents in the quarterfinals!

"The king gives me some strength!!"

"Give us a hand of the Korean Civil War, isn't it beautiful for LZ to fight SSG?"

"In this way, aren't we and NB also civil wars?"

"You know a fart, if you fight a civil war, you can at least get into the top 4, if you really want to fight against two South Korean teams, you can't get all cool!"

"Don't be funny, I'm afraid it's cold to be your NB, in our WE state, which second seed is different?"

There is no one who sits on the Diaoyutai more firmly than the fans of we,

The league is the bitter master of the NB, and they are eliminated to win the championship in the spring and summer.

As for SSG, the sparse form played in the group stage, the state is surprisingly poor, and it is obviously not difficult to deal with.

screen,

The king also swallowed nervously and took out the third yellow color ball.

The blue and white icon catches your eye,

WE's Opponent in the Top 8: SSG Team!

This also means that

NB's opponent will be the 'LZ' team, which has been recognized as the number one team in various rankings so far!

"Dragon Ball?"

The originally jubilant restaurant, after thinking of NB's rivals, was silent, as if even a pin could be heard.

"Dragon Ball, the NB semifinals are going to fight Dragon Ball!"

"I think they're in danger..."

"Originally, it was just a loss, after all, it was the No. 1 seed in LCK, but now Su Chen and Khan have a big tie, oh no, it should be a holiday with our national players, this is going to lose..."

"That's not to be scolded!"

More or less eyes in the cafeteria, quietly looking at the NB players with different looks, some pity, some worried.

"Xiao Chen, you..."

Xiao Ming's worries are palpable.

"Don't worry, among these No. 1 seeds, the one we want to fight the most is actually Dragon Ball."

Su Chen's relaxed smile turned into a forced smile in the eyes of everyone.

It's the No. 1 team in the world, so who wants to meet the hot Dragon Ball?

I noticed that the atmosphere was really weird,

"Coach, what's wrong with your food?"

Su Chen asked.

"Oh, I'm full, I'm sorry everyone, since the lottery has come down, we also need to go back to study some strategies, so let's say goodbye first."

Chris reacted and quickly got up and apologized goodbye to everyone.

He also understood what Su Chen meant,

This sign, NB is sitting here, and the others can't continue to eat properly.

In the blink of an eye,

The members of the NB team looked as usual, got up one after another, and gradually disappeared outside the door under the light that was not bright, and in the eyes of everyone, it looked a little sad.

"Alas, it's hard for NB."

Sighs rang out one after another in the restaurant, and the doll looked at her friend's red eyes, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and comforted: "Miller, if you want to open something, there is no way to do it." ”

"At least NB still has a few brushes, in fact, in my opinion, this is a good sign."

"Why is it good to sign?"

Miller asked blankly.

"Why do you say it's a good sign, I just hope that NB will play out the LZ stuff and remove some obstacles for RNG and WE."

Doll smiled and explained: "If the time comes, whether RNG wins the championship or WE wins, how can the champion also have the credit of NB1/3, right?" ”

Miller: "......"

I'm a twist skin for you!

……

meanwhile

The LCK teams that also paid attention to the draw ceremony also had different expressions, whether happy or worried.

A Korean restaurant,

"Do you want to play the C9 team?"

Buckle Ma's expression moved slightly, and his eyes motioned to an analysis assistant to take the notebook he handed over.

There are player notes recorded in advance on it.

【Upper Order】Impact: The heroes who are good at using are weapons, Galio, Big Tree, and other blue LinkedIn heroes, who used to be SKT's main force to win the championship.

[Jungler] tractz: Good at using heroes such as leopard girl and prince, and they are also used well, and they are outstanding in the carry jungler, which often brings a lot of pressure to the opponent.

【Midlaner】Jensen: Jensen is the core character of C9, who specializes in clockwork, syndra, and snake woman.

[adeaky: Good at hero Youxia, the performance of the small cannon is also good, sneaky likes to try new things, is a big fan of new games, he is always full of curiosity, such as being called a joker and a women's clothing boss. In recent years, the level has been relatively stable.

[Support] smoothie: smoothie is good at heroic wind girls and bull heads, and is the most stable in the North American division.

It is precisely because of the professionalism of the coaching staff that the biggest reason why SKT has always maintained its absolute competitiveness.

One by one, he was very satisfied, until he fell to a special habit of the shooter sneaky, and his face stiffened a little.

"Bang, remember when you meet C9, stay away from their shooters, do you hear that?"

"Why? Instructor? ”

Chewing kimchi, bang looked confused.

"Because I'm afraid something will happen to you!"

……

In the messy base full of instant noodles,

“we… Difficult opponents... home… Cunning enemies! ”

Looking at the nervous and depressed mood of the players, Coach Jin waved his hand, "Go back and sleep well first, get up tomorrow and continue to train according to my requirements, don't think about anything else, don't care about anything, you just need to know that the coach will lead you to win!" ”

"Na!"

The whole team finally cheered up a little,

If the former is easy and the middle is like a great enemy, then the latter...

“nb？ Hahaha!! Finally we got caught!! ”

In a Haidilao box, there was a shrill and crazy laughter.

When you see the icon of the light blue NB team,

Khan felt like his tears were about to burst out laughing,

Okay!

That's great!!

Feeling the cool breeze in his head, Khan gritted his teeth with a hideous expression, and his eyes flashed with vicious hatred,

"Xinhuo, you've waited for me!

I'll prove it to players all over the world,

4 ESE and never win the game!! ”
