190 Next Stop, Chicago!
At this time, in the barrage of LPL's official TV station, there are also countless talks:
[Or is QG reassuring, what kind of abuse has this made the team in the same group? ] There is no game for more than 30 minutes]
[Indeed, it is really outrageous to be able to type this kind of data in this version! ] γ
[This is a real crotch pull compared to EDG, it won't really be out of the top 16, right? ] γ
[I think it's really possible, it's too far behind now]
Although EDG took a step back from the precipice by beating the top of the group today, the situation is still not optimistic.
October 3, the last match day of the first round of the group stage.
There are two major events in total today.
One is SKT vs. TSM and the other is ROX vs. Snake.
As soon as the first game arrived, the first set of games was quickly introduced.
One is SKT who are already 2-0 and the other is TSM who are 1-1, and this game is also a crucial game for TSM. If they lose this game, they will fall to the same 1-2 record as EDG and INTZ, and then the second round will be quite fierce.
SKT is obviously ruthless, SKT has only lost one hand in the group stage in the past against the Han Qixia Lightning Wolf, but the Lightning Wolf is not in the same group with them this time.
In the 35th minute, SKT defeated TSM and also ended the first round 3-0.
After a match gap, Snake was also quick to get on the field.
Snake's game was much easier than EDG's, and in the first two games, their team took turns to shoot three Cs in the field, and easily won two wins.
In the battle with ROX, Snake played even more bravely, and the three Cs worked together to play an unprecedented ceiling for the team, defeating ROX in an upset, and also ending the first round 3-0!
"Yes! The Snakes even won the Tigers? "QG didn't go to the scene today, just watched the play in the lounge.
"The ceiling of this team is really fierce." Banbazi also nodded, he remembered that the Snakes had won a game against them in the regular season, relying on the trio of Cs.
"But it's only limited to the group stage, and when it comes to the knockout stage BO5, that's the real test for Snake."
When Chen Dongqing saw this scene, he also nodded in agreement.
LCK's BO1 results are average every year, but they are the champions every year, which is already a norm.
In addition to the fact that the Snake team played well, part of the reason for this is that ROX is actually not too serious.
In the case of confirming qualification, many teams will choose to try things and practice tactics.
In fact, the same is true for QG, they don't play seriously, but they can't stand the same team and it's really not strong.
So far, the four groups of patterns have also been basically determined.
Group A belongs to the two-man competition, ROX and Snake in Group A compete for the first place, and the next three groups are one super and many strong, the pattern is exactly the same, they are all at the top of the list with a 3-0 team leading, and the three 1-2 teams behind are following.
"Alright, let's have a meeting." Banbazi turned off the live broadcast of the event, and the remaining three matches had no reference value and no need to watch them, and he said: "How do you feel about the version of the Worlds? β
"The version has changed quite a lot, and now the mainstream of the wild area is the leopard girl, the blind monk, and Olaf, followed by the spider, the barrel, and the centaur."
"It's the same in the middle lane, the rock sparrow can't play after weakening the Q skill push line, and now Sindra and Victor are all high priorities."
QG people have expressed their opinions.
And Uzi shook his head and said: "If you go down the road, the change will be even greater, I really don't know who came up with this Zyra assistant, it's so disgusting!" β
For Uzi, who advocates laning, Zyra is disgusting whether she is at her home or on the opposite side, because this will infinitely narrow the gap between the laning abilities of the two ADs, and directly become a support game.
They have a deal to do, but it's not the time yet.
Chen Dongqing also said at this time: "The change in the hero pool is actually secondary, although the change is large, but it has not come out of our hero pool, the main reason is that the rhythm has changed too much. β
"That's right!" Banbazi said: "After arriving at the Worlds, I feel that the importance of the One Blood Tower has increased again, and the tactics have become more diverse. β
In the playoffs, LPL teams generally advocate the bottom lane to the line, and the crispy next tower is the main one.
After the World Championship, the pattern has changed, and ROX and a group of teams with strong top laners have given a new answer, that is, let the bottom lane select a combination hero with strong defensive lines, and then rely on the early strength of Upper Field heroes such as Spider and Jace, and focus on the top lane One Blood Tower!
As long as the offense is strong enough, although the upper road tower has a lot of meat, it may not be impossible to dismantle.
This idea really gave QG a little impact.
They are still more accustomed to letting Chen Dongqing fight alone on the upper road and win by personal ability, when Chen Dongqing is targeted at dumb fire on the road, but on the lower road because of the opposite selection of heroes such as Zyra and other heroes, the situation will be embarrassing.
"The core of the version is still a blood tower!" Banbazi also nodded, "The current version, the One Blood Tower is too important!" β
On the coach's side, they have detailed data logs.
In this version, the win rate of the red and blue sides is actually relatively balanced, about 50.5% to 49.5%.
But this data will be quickly tilted after the factor of One Blood Tower is added!
In the case of the blue team, if they get a blood tower, the win rate will directly increase by 42%, quickly reaching 92.5%!
This is quite terrifying, which shows that the fists have been too strong, and the one-blood tower policy they introduced directly changed the pattern of the game!
Now the casting and playing style of all teams will revolve around a certain defense tower in the early stage, and the attribute of lane ability has also been infinitely improved for a while.
Why does EDG seem uncomfortable in this version? It's because their team is strong in linkage and rhythm.
In terms of alignment, neither mouse nor Deft can be called top-notch, and it is actually difficult to make a blood tower policy around these two people.
The reason why the Snake team can be 3-0 is because they have a hand on the line, and Brother Crystal and Brother Saint Gun are on the line in the LPL, and they will lose a hand of QG.
Thinking of this, Chen Dongqing suddenly remembered Brother Crystal in his mind.
I didn't expect that when the dog entered the World Championship, there would be such a highlight moment
"Anyway, all we can do now is adapt." "It's unknown what the future of Worlds will be, but it's a good thing for us in the current situation, because we're known for being on the right side," Banbazi said. So, let's practice! β
Chen Dongqing nodded after hearing this, and started PUBG with his backhand.
I'm practicing, I'm practicing.
Behind them, the two coaches and managers looked at Chen Dongqing's screen and couldn't help frowning slightly.
Although Chen Dongqing's playing PUBG is already a unique existence for their team, but seeing that the World Championship is in full swing, Chen Dongqing has not changed, and they are still a little worried in their hearts.
Linko came over and nodded Chen Dongqing's shoulder and said, "My brother Shu, this is a world competition, can't you put the chicken away?" It's not that addictive, is it? β
Chen Dongqing turned around and scratched his head.
But there's really nothing he can do.
The main thing is that he is now two attribute points left from full attributes, and he currently has more than 2,000 points in his hand, so he has to at least take out the remaining 2,000 livers first, and add a little first.
Linko thought for a moment and said, "Have you seen what the recent rankings are like?" β
Chen Dongqing shook his head: "I don't know, what's wrong?" β
Xiangguo suddenly said on the side: "The current ladder of beauty has been ruled by Koreans, and the top three are all Koreans. β
As he was talking, the incense pot clicked into the leaderboard, and you can see that the first one is "mid faker", the second is "Wang Ho" is the transliteration of the name of Little Peanut Han Wanghu, and the third is "PraY 8D" is the Tiger Team AD.
"So what's going on?" Chen Dongqing raised his eyebrows, "If the Koreans are willing to score, let them go!" β
"But fans don't think so." Linko shook his head again, "We didn't even make it to the top ten in the LPL!" β
Looking at the three teams in the LPL, there is no such ranked demon type of character, the snake team ranking is notoriously bad, and several of EDG's big dads are already veterans, and they have long passed the stage of competing for ranking scores, and the young players can't rush up.
And QG.
Xiangguo and Doinb's style of play is very good at teammates, and the strength of the upper score in the ranking can only be said to be average, and the score on the lower road is not moving.
At present, among all the players who come to the United States in the LPL, the highest score is actually the substitute Lin Weixiang, who does not play training and does not play big competitions, he specializes in the American service ranking all day long, and now he is ranked eleventh in the United States, can you believe it?
Because of this factor, there are a lot of Korean miscellaneous people jumping on domestic forums, saying something like "I can't rank and want to win the game".
Although these words that affect unity are instantly deleted during the foreign war, it still somewhat undermines the confidence of fans.
Although the ranking is something used to maintain the feel, and the score is not very important for the players, but it is not good to stretch the crotch too much, right?
Chen Dongqing looked at this scene and was also thoughtful.
And at this moment, the system news suddenly came.
[New Mission Released!] γ
[Mission content: Climb to the top of the American service ladder list!] γ
[Reward: 4000 points!] γ
At this time, Linko was still saying: "You are the fastest on our team, if you go to score, maybe there is still a chance. But I feel that it's too late, after all, people have an extra half a month."
"Who said it was too late?" Chen Dongqing glared, "It's too late, just leave it to me!" It is incumbent upon us to recast the glory of QG! β
Linko couldn't help but be stunned, looking at Chen Dongqing, who suddenly changed his personality in front of him, and suddenly didn't understand what the situation was.
"Are you on a solo row?" The incense pot asked on the side.
"It must be a single row!" Chen Dongqing opened his mouth and said: "The three of them are all in a single row, wouldn't my double row be invincible?" But you can help me get the king of the double row first, hurry up like this, and I'll go on the second half by myself. β
"Yes." Xiangguo nodded, "Then you hurry up to the master, and I'll score points with you." β
Chen Dongqing nodded, his number has just been a positioning match (1/10), and there is still a distance from the master, so he still needs to hurry.
His goal is to talk about the last king before the start of the second round of the group stage.
After the plan was confirmed, everyone in QG couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Say that our LPL player ranking is not good? Today, let me show you the strength of the first king of S6!
October 4th, 3 a.m.
Linko, a middle-aged man, still can't sleep, he is still scrolling through the e-sports forum, and there are still discussions in the major post bars at this time, discussing the group stage in recent days.
Some people are praising the super performance of the Snake team, and some people are criticizing EDG's crotch pulling performance.
In addition, there are many posts discussing the ranking of players.
[The players in the LCK are diligent, and they are still ranked in the early hours of the morning, do you look at QG? ] I haven't seen them online at night! γ
[Don't be embarrassed, QG is prescribed to get up at nine o'clock for a healthy schedule, and now they are all asleep]
[Indeed, in terms of qualifying time, QG is actually not a lot except for Brother Shu]
[Report!] Big news! Brother Shu is on the number! He's playing ranked! γ
γWhat!!? γ
At the bottom of the post, there was a collective shock, as if he had seen some shocking event.
Also shocked was Linko, who saw this and quickly cut out the applet.
This app can display the ranking status, score, recent wins and losses, and online status of each team's players in real time.
Linko clicked on the QG column, and could see that Chen Dongqing's account was really online!
Chen Dongqing queued until three o'clock in the morning?
Linko felt as if she had crossed over.
Seeing this, Linko simply got up and put on his slippers and ran to the training room, he had to see what was going on!
Pushing open the door of the training room, I just saw Chen Dongqing push away the enemy's base in a wave, and then quickly shut down and got up.
"Huh? Brother Li? Why haven't you slept yet? Chen Dongqing was a little surprised and asked.
"What else do I want to ask you?" Linko asked, "Why did you get so late?" Want to be fined tomorrow morning? β
"I want to score points!" Chen Dongqing said with a smile: "I feel that today's score is a bit smooth, so I played a master overnight." β
"Master?" Linko captures the key elements.
He remembered that Chen Dongqing had just started playing from the second positioning match in the afternoon, how could he be a master?
"Alright, go back to sleep." Chen Dongqing waved his hand, "It's only three o'clock now, if I get up at nine o'clock, I can sleep for nearly six hours, which is almost enough, remember to lock the door of the training room." β
Linko watched Chen Dongqing walk past tiredly, slightly stunned.
Only then did he take out his mobile phone again, enter the applet, and take a look at Chen Dongqing's recent ranking record.
The first priority is Jian Ji, the second priority Jace, and the third priority Riven, and a whole page is these three heroes.
And then
Win, win, win, win, win.
MVPοΌ MVPοΌ MVPοΌ MVPοΌ
A piece of green.
In one day and one night, Chen Dongqing won 26 consecutive victories at an average speed of more than 20 minutes, and beat a super number directly from the second game of the positioning match to the extraordinary master!
Linko was dumbfounded.
After only six hours of rest, Chen Dongqing had already gotten up again.
This task of directly receiving 4,000 points by only climbing to the top of the American service is too fragrant, which is completely no different from giving points to Chen Dongqing.
As long as he is fast enough, he can theoretically get the points in a week.
Well, it's for points!
It's not to fight for LPL players, Kouheng.
At this time, the incense pot also happened to get up, and the two went to the training room together after washing, and at the same time the incense pot was still saying: "What is it?" Can you go to the master today? β
"Hehe, who do you look down on?" Chen Dongqing smiled disdainfully: "Today's king!" β
βοΌβ
Of course, the king's remarks are bragging, and the last place of the king of the American service is 427 points, and it is still a bit difficult to go from zero to 400 points in a day.
After all, Chen Dongqing's hidden score is high, and the master has begun to rank at the top of the bureau in the future, all of them are professional players, and there is still some resistance.
The time will soon come to October 7th, the last day of the November Golden Week, and the second round of the group stage will also start today.
Another two days have passed, Chen Dongqing's score has come to a terrifying 450 points, and as soon as he logged in to the game in the morning, he saw that the account had been promoted to the strongest king.
The king of the four days, it's okay.
Before the game started, he played four more rounds, and after winning three wins and one loss, the score rose by another 70 points to 520 points.
At this time, Chen Dongqing clicked on the leaderboard and glanced at it, seeing that Faker's score was still in his early 950s, and nodded with satisfaction.
Come back for three days and you'll be able to catch up!
"Alright, let's take a break." Banbazi hurriedly came over and stopped Chen Dongqing's ranking, "Look at the game!" β
Chen Dongqing's ranking frequency in the past few days made him even scared when he saw it!
Except for training matches and eating and going to the toilet, the rest of the time is all in the rankings, and every time you are the last to go!
This guy is not ranked, and the ranking is amazing!
Chen Dongqing said with a smile: "Don't worry, I know." β
The QG crowd was eating the lunch they had ordered from takeout while watching the game that was about to start.
Today is a big battle that belongs exclusively to Group A.
ROX, who finished second in the group 2-1, took advantage of the situation against SPY and won another victory after 30 minutes of battle!
And then Snake also played quickly, against AHQ, it was also a win, and the score came to 4-0!
Immediately afterwards, there was another civil war between the first and second in Group A!
And this time, it was ROX who won!
Little Peanut and Smeb's Ueno played a smooth attack in this game, directly destroying the top lane of the Holy Spear Brother!
The score of the two sides also came to 4-1 this time!
After taking turns abusing a handful of dishes, the score came to 5-1 again!
In this case, the two teams of ROX and Snake have basically been confirmed to qualify, but the question is, who is the first in the group!
Extra game!
Facing the No. 3 seed in the LPL for the third time, ROX did not slack off at all this time, they really regarded the Snake team as a fierce rival!
And the Tigers, who are serious, are also scary enough.
At 35 minutes and 22 seconds, ROX defeated Snake in the play-off and officially qualified as the first in the group!
Everyone in the Tigers collectively stood up from their gaming chairs with bright smiles.
The Snakes also got up, and although they lost the game, they didn't lose hope yet.
After the group stage, that's where it really begins!
After watching the game, Chen Dongqing played a few more rounds of qualifying after the training match and officially raised the score to 600 points, but on the other side, Faker seemed to be aware of Chen Dongqing's existence, and also scored a wave of points, increasing the score to 1000 points.
This four-digit ranking score has already refreshed the upper limit of the score of the American server!
On 8 October, Group C followed.
Today is the day to decide the life and death of EDG.
To qualify, EDG must come out of three 1-2 teams!
The first thing that started was the battle between EDG and INTZ.
Facing this team that once pushed itself to the edge of the cliff, EDG finally didn't drop the chain this time, and pushed it flat for 28 minutes.
Many fans feel a little strange while being happy.
When does EDG need to be happy to win a wild card?
Then the Group C match continued, and then came one of the highlights of the day, TSM vs. SKT.
But this time, the unexpected happened.
Everyone thought that SKT would win again if they were unbeaten all the way, but in this game, TSM showed the charm of the No. 1 seed in North America and forcibly overturned SKT!
Immediately afterwards, TSM faced INTZ again and won again!
Their record instantly climbed to 3-2!
EDG then faced SKT again, but they were beaten to 2-3.
Next, the key comes to the matchup between TSM and EDG.
If TSM wins, it will advance directly. If EDG wins, then there is a qualification for the play-off.
Seeing this, everyone in QG frowned.
Chen Dongqing didn't panic and said: "Believe in pawn, he is the hope of our EDG." β
He remembered that when S6EDG was on the verge of qualifying, it was General Pawn who stepped up and rescued the vampire in danger and carried the team into the knockout round!
And in this round, Pawn once again picks the Vampire!
At 43 minutes and 43 seconds, the vampire in the six-god costume finally showed his charm, entering and exiting three times in the team battle, first slashing AD and then slashing AP, and finally survived with residual blood!
EDG kept the seeds of hope and the two sides entered the play-offs!
In the last game, General Pawn was even more brave, took out a hand of Victor to turn into the Thunderbolt King, and once again exploded in the C game, and finally carried EDG into the World Championship!
Seeing this, Chen Dongqing couldn't help but be in a trance.
He remembered what the factory manager had said, "Pawn's departure didn't affect us much. β
But without the Pawn, who can step up and save the team in a desperate situation?
"Okay, although there have been twists and turns, EDG finally made it through!" The doll couldn't hide her excitement in the commentary seat, "This year, all three of our teams advanced to the quarterfinals!" β
Although QG's game has not yet been played, everyone knows that QG's promotion is already nine out of ten!
And what about our Chen Dongqing? He took advantage of Faker's time to play the game, quietly continued to score, and directly increased the score to 800, officially squeezing into the top ten in the American service!
It was not until this time that the ID of 2016TOP1 really entered the public's field of vision.
In just six days, from the positioning match to the king of 800 points, the winning rate is as high as 88%!
This terrifying win rate and full speed attracted the attention of all the players and fans for a while.
Now everyone understands that ilex wants to recast the glory of LPL players.
On October 9th, the Group B match began, and this group of matches was relatively lacking in suspense, and there was not even a play-off, and FW and SSG successfully qualified.
Meanwhile, Chen and Faker's rankings are still climbing.
Chen Dongqing scored 950 points directly, while Faker continued to rise to 1050.
October 10, the last day of the group stage.
The final Group D match has finally begun.
Chen Dongqing came to the arena after a long absence, and bombarded the remaining three teams in Group D!
After winning two games and reaching 5-0 to ensure qualification, everyone turned their attention to Lin Weixiang.
Chen Dongqing smiled and asked, "Say, what do you choose for the champion skin?" β
Although this is only the group stage, and the championship has not yet been told, this kind of joke told behind closed doors can still be said.
Da Ming's eyes were firm: "VN! β
Uzi glanced at Lin Weixiang and said, "Either I'll go up and play VN, or you go up and play something else, you choose." β
In this version that advocates the right to go down, choosing VN is tantamount to suicide, so even Uzi has no idea of choosing VN.
How could Lin Weixiang choose?
Da Smart laughed happily: "Just kidding. I'll pick the ice. Take Lucian without ice. β
βOKγβ
The QG crowd soon took Lin Weixiang to the stage again, and this time they focused on the first half of the district and won the game easily.
Da Ming's eyebrows twitched after winning the game, as if the division of the champion's skin had been sent to his pocket.
For the three teams in Group D, all they need to do is compete for the second qualifying spot!
The three teams fought quite fiercely, and even played the playoffs at one point!
In the final battle between the North American second seed CLG and the European second seed H2K, it was the North American team CLG who won.
At this point, the group stage schedule has finally ended, and the eight teams that have confirmed their promotion have also come to the scene one after another, ready to participate in the knockout draw ceremony!
Today's backstage is already overcrowded, and in addition to the teams that have already been promoted, there are even many eliminated teams here.
Anyway, their hotel hasn't expired yet, and it's close to the scene, so of course they don't mind coming to the scene to watch and have a good time.
At this time, TSM's AD player Doublelift took the initiative to find Chen Dongqing and Uzi, saying that he wanted to exchange team uniforms with the two.
Although the senior brother fell in the top 16 again, he was not impatient, he thought that he still had a long career ahead and many opportunities.
Chen Dongqing nodded and readily agreed.
At this time, the members of the EDG and Snake teams also came over and talked to the QG people with a smile.
Chen Dongqing also smiled: "I hope there will be no civil war in the first round." β
The Snake and EDG guys all nodded in agreement.
Although in S3 and S4, the LPL relied on the civil war to reach the finals for two consecutive years, but in fact, no one likes this kind of schedule.
And most importantly, no one wants to have a civil war with QG, it's terrible
At this time, the CLG players finally returned to the backstage, and after successfully advancing to the knockout round, they could clearly see that the CLG players were obviously breathing a sigh of relief.
For the vast majority of teams, their mission at Worlds is not to win the championship.
Many people think that advancing to the quarterfinals is considered a success, and of course, there are those with higher ambitions who think that the semi-finals are successful.
And CLG's players are clearly the former.
At its home turf, CLG, as the only team in North America to advance to the knockout round, can be regarded as maintaining the glory of North America
If it is at home and all three teams are in the top 16, it will be too embarrassing.
"CLG is down, then send a representative out to hurry up and prepare for the draw!" At this time, the staff was also constantly urging, "Hurry up!" β
The three LPL teams discussed their own ideas, and the representative of EDG was, of course, the director of the factory, while Snake shirked each other for a long time, and in the end, it was Brother Saint Gun who took over.
On the QG side, Chen Dongqing was sent - nothing else, he was handsome.
At this time, Vincent also leaned over, and finally told the three representatives of the LPL: "You have all rehearsed this, if you forget where you stand, you can watch the big screen, the screen will list the team logos of the eight teams, you just stand in front of your team logo!" β
"Uh-huh, we get it." Chen Dongqing nodded.
At this time, Little Peanut also came over and said to Chen Dongqing with a smile: "See you in the knockout round?" β
"Not necessarily." Chen Dongqing smiled: "I hope you can win to see us." β
QG and ROX are both No. 1 seeds, and the quarterfinals can't be touched, so the guarantee will have to wait until the semifinals to meet again, and at least both sides will win the first round.
Little Peanut suddenly said, "It's you who should pray!" We'll win until the end! β
Chen Dongqing smiled and said, "Then let's work together!" β
"Oh, yes." Little Peanut suddenly smiled and said, "I gave you a surprise today!" β
Chen Dongqing was a little confused: "What surprise?" β
Little Peanut didn't explain, blinked, and said, "You'll know when you go back to the training room." β
β.β
Chen Dongqing still wanted to ask in detail, but at this time, the staff had already signaled to everyone to go on stage, and Chen Dongqing could only follow behind and step on the stage first.
There was a lot of cheers from the audience.
Seeing that all eight teams took the stage, the audience naturally made noise and supported their favorite teams.
Chen Dongqing glanced back at the screen and saw that the QG team logo was on the far left side of the stage, and there was a spotlight in front of the team logo to form a circle of light shining on the stage.
The first place in the four groups is on the left, and the second place in the four groups is on the right.
Chen Dongqing moved his steps lightly and stood in front of the aperture.
Seeing that all eight players were already standing, the bearded host of North America quickly reached out and pointed to the left side of the stage and shouted, "Okay, let's welcome the representatives of the four group top teams!" β
βROX tigerοΌ Flash WolvesοΌ SK Telecom T1οΌ AndQiaoGuοΌ β
The audience tapped the glow sticks and cheered for the four teams.
After that, all four teams from the second place in the group also took the stage: Snake, SSG, EDG, CLG.
The audience swept over at a glance, three LPLs, three LCKs, and then interspersed with a Wanwan team, and finally a North American team.
Seven Asian teams, many people felt a little embarrassed for a while.
In the field of MOBA games, Asians are far ahead.
At this time, a person came out of the back of the stage again, this is also an Asian face, he is TSM legend AD, WildTurtle, nicknamed Wild Turtle.
The player had been a starter at TSM for the first two years until this year, when he was replaced by the big brother.
This is also a legend.
At last year's S5 Worlds, he once used Iron Man to knock out a tube of blood on his imp skateboard shoes with a hammer, proving to the world Iron Man's dominance.
So much so that when Chen Dongqing saw Brother Wild Turtle on stage, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter
At this time, the host quickly began to introduce the rules of the draw: "The eight teams will be divided into two halves and four groups based on the two principles of avoiding the same group and half of the group, and the first group against the second group, and fighting two by two!" β
After the introduction, Brother Wild Turtle also officially started to work, he had to first assign the first of the four groups to the four new groups.
He reached for pool No. 1 on his right, and after a stirring he pulled out a ball.
Take apart the ball and unfold the scroll.
βFWβ
The first one to be drawn is the last hope of the LMS division, the Lightning Wolf.
Immediately after the second draw.
ROXοΌ
At this time, the camera shifted to Little Peanut's body, dyed with a grandmother's gray, and he raised his hands to say hello.
At this time, the name of the ROX team also appeared in the lower left corner of the big screen on the big screen, which means that they are in the same half area as FW.
Seeing this, the QG players in the background were suddenly dizzy.
Don't do it, Brother Turtle!
Regardless of the order of the next draw, SKT and QG are already fixed in the other half of the draw.
Does this mean that if you want to reach the finals, you have to cross SKT?
Of course, the SKT players in the background are also a little dizzy, and they are also quite stressed against QG.
On the stage, Chen Dongqing glanced at Faker and saw that Faker's eyes were full of seriousness.
Chen Dongqing raised his eyebrows slightly.
Although QG and SKT do have a bit of a grudge, there is no need to be so fierce, right?
Little Peanut sighed slightly.
If the schedule is arranged like this, then SKT and QG, they can only meet one of them at most, which is a bit of a pity.
In Xiao Peanut's view, the championship won after sending QG and SKT away happily is the most golden.
Unfortunately, it can't be delivered.
Soon, the two teams in the bottom half were also very quick to come up with.
They are SKT and QG, and like last time, QG is still the last to be drawn.
Soon, Wild Turtle began to work on another Zhong Zi Pool, which still had four balls, representing the four teams that finished second in the group.
Chen Dongqing's mood has basically calmed down at this moment.
The strength of the four teams that are second in the group is definitely not weak, but if you have to say the most powerful, then Chen Dongqing still thinks that SSG is stronger, after all, this is the runner-up in 2016.
In other words, as long as you don't draw SSG, it's considered a success.
Of course, it's best to draw a CLG, I have experience playing this team.
Soon, the ball was dismantled in succession.
But it's a pity that the CLG that Chen Dongqing had in mind was drawn to the lightning wolf at the beginning.
Only EDG, Snake, and SSG remain in pool 2.
That is, the quarterfinals will either be a civil war or a three-star match.
Chen Dongqing is a little numb, what is this?
Is this a backlash triggered by a group stage opponent who is too weak?
At this time, CLG representative Huhi had already shaken hands with Karsa in the center of the stage, and the dragon king's face was clearly smiling.
For them, this is a peerless sign!
If you look at the remaining three teams outside, ROX, SKT, QG, all of them look like monsters, and you know that they can't be beaten at a glance.
But Huhi looked at Karsa in front of him again, and it was pleasing to the eye.
Karsa has a similar mindset.
This wave, this wave is called evenly matched!
This wave is called the Civil War to protect a top four!
At this time, an aperture formed by four spotlights also appeared in the middle of the stage, and the two quickly stood in the first aperture.
Immediately afterward, the draw continued, and this draw would determine the opponent for RIX.
This draw drew Snake, but that's when the problem arose, Snake and ROX were on the same group.
According to the principle of avoiding the same group half, two teams that qualify from the same group will not appear in the same half.
So according to the rules, Snake slipped into the bottom half, and their opponent was the first team in the bottom half, SKT.
After dodging the ROX, he encountered SKT
Brother Saint Lance sighed, lamenting the injustice of the world.
He went to the stage to shake Faker's hand, then stood within the third aperture.
And then immediately after that, the draw continued, and this draw was still for ROX to draw opponents!
And this time, there were no problems with the results.
βEDGοΌβ
Chen Dongqing immediately smiled when he saw this scene.
50% of this laugh is given to themselves without a civil war.
The other 50% is to give 4396 enough respect.
What should come will still come.
And Ming Kai's face was calm.
Now there are only two teams left, and he either plays ROX or QG, so it doesn't matter.
If you play RIX, the factory director will be more relaxed.
Because he really thinks that QG is better than the Korean team.
Ming Kai and Little Peanut shook hands in the center of the stage, entering the second aperture, the two had a very happy conversation, Chen Dongqing also heard that Little Peanut was a fan of the factory director, and he didn't know if it was true.
After the third sign is confirmed, there is nothing to say about the last sign.
In order to ensure fairness, Brother Wild Turtle still drew the last lot.
There is no doubt that SSG!
Chen Dongqing and An Zhangmen walked from the left and right sides of the stage to the middle to shake hands.
Chen Dongqing could keenly see that there was also an obvious bitterness on Boss An's face.
When the two teams are drawn together, it is obviously three stars that are even more uncomfortable
Chen Dongqing understands this.
Chen Dongqing and An Zhangmen stretched out their hands to each other to signal each other to go first, and then stood together at the position of the last aperture.
At this point, the knockout match is confirmed!
Upper Half:
FW vs. CLG
ROX vs. EDG
Lower Half:
SKT vs. Snake
QG vs. SSG
After the draw, the sixteen teams that came to San Francisco will also go their separate ways.
Half of them went back to their respective homes.
The other half, on the other hand, is heading to their next stop.
Chicago!
I've been laying the groundwork for a long time, so it should be fine, right?
