September 12th.

The LPL Summer Third Place Tournament is in full swing.

It is still the home of QG, and the losers of the first two semi-finals, EDG and FPX, met today to compete for the third place.

For this game, the FPX crowd is still very confident.

The reverse version is the reverse version, and this thing affects their cap at most. Even if it's the reverse version, their lower limit is still there.

Can you still lose by playing EDG?

EDG is not as simple as the reverse version, and with their current staffing, they can't do it in any version.

In today's BO5 battle, the two sides first won one game each, tied one to one, and then FPX suddenly made a force, ending the game with a wave of 3-1.

At the end of the fourth game, Doinb excitedly pushed away the gaming chair behind him and excitedly played monkey boxing on the stage!

QG and IG have met in the finals for the second time this year, and both teams have plenty of points to lock in the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds, no matter who wins or loses.

The other teams will need to go through the qualifiers to compete for the final third seed.

And FPX, who are third in both spring and summer, have the third points in the LPL, and they are in the best situation in the qualifiers, they will sit at the bottom of the pass, and only need to win a BO5 to enter S8!

Doinb believes that no matter how bad their FPX is, the Worlds will be fine.

In the audience, fans are a little emotional.

The little piglets are even more in a heavy mood.

Since the inception of S4, EDG has not played any results in the World Championship, and the quarterfinals every year, but the World Championship has been entered every year.

Foreign wars can't be caught, civil wars have to be caught, right?

But this year. Stepped on by QG, abused by IG, and hung up and beaten by FPX.

This year's EDG probably won't be able to enter the World Championship.

At this time, Chen Dongqing has come to Nanjing with the team, and the final will be played in Nanjing.

In the training room of the hotel, Chen Dongqing watched the whole game and felt a little sad in his heart.

Many people say that EDG is a rod of LPL, and when they dominate LPL, it is when LPL is the most crotch-pulling. When they pull their hips, it is the peak of LPL.

This is a bit embarrassing, and it can't be called a conclusion, but it is indeed a rule summarized according to the past records of LPL and EDG.

After all, EDG's gameplay and management mode are here, and at the same time limit the upper and lower limits of this team, they will not be too weak, but they will not be too strong.

If this team can reach the top of the LPL, it means that the overall strength of the LPL this year is really not good.

If EDG can't even enter the World Championship this year, then the overall strength of LPL this year must not be ignored.

In this year's World Championship, there is a high probability that the LPL will come to a big wave.

Chen Dongqing closed the web page, took out his mobile phone and started shopping again.

As soon as I entered, I saw a lot of bar friends showing off their might against this year's European and American lineups.

Because of the delay in the training camp and schedule of the Asian Games, the summer competitions in several Asian regions have been delayed a lot of time.

In North America and Europe, their competitions have long since ended, and even the World Championship spots have already been decided.

The three teams from Europe to the World Championship are FNC, VIT, and G2, while North America is TL, 100T, and C9.

For these six teams, the evaluation of the bar friends is - the flying of spring.

[One look at the team name, one look at the player ID, they are all old acquaintances, I am very relieved about them]

[G2, the B team, have all fallen to the third seed this year? Can't even understand Europe? There's no team that can lose G2, right? 】

[These six teams will strive to enter the top four this year, okay]

[I think the semi-finals are a bit difficult, European and American teams open impart every day, and their hands are soft, and the quarterfinals are considered successful]

[I watched the finals in Europe and the United States, basically rookies pecked each other, and when I met QGIG, it is estimated that they were all hung up and beaten]

[QG is a matter of course for Europe and the United States, what is your IG? ] 】

[Laughing to death, the last time IG entered the World Championship, he was beaten by FNC and surrendered on National Day, this time he still looks down on Europe and the United States, do you have this qualification]

[The past is the past, the present is the present, and the current IG is the same thing as the past? 】

[I can't say]

Looking at the discussion of the bar friends, Chen Dongqing couldn't help but be happy.

It can be seen that with the rise of IG this year, the dog son in the anti-bar has also begun to gradually recover.

After all, the anti-bar was originally created for black WE, and in ancient times, it was IG who was fighting against WE, and among the group of people in black WE, the dog son occupied a large part.

And because of the excellent results of the LPL in recent years, those veteran players are quite active now

That part of the players has been well saved until now, and they saw that IG actually completed the rise in S8, and they also resurrected it one after another.

This part of the players is quite arrogant in the post bar and has begun to discuss the finals the day after tomorrow.

[One thing to say, I'm purely neutral, but I think the finals are really open! ] 】

[Indeed, IG also double-kills QG in the regular season, why do you have to lose in the finals? ] 】

[What about the hammer, you say? People QG regular season daddy didn't make it at all, is that the same thing? 】

[Why is it not the same thing?] At most, QG has an advantage in the upper and lower two ways, and IG Nakano is also dominant, and it can be played completely]

[Haha, the dog son is really capable of lewdness, and QG is here, and when IG can play the fourth game, he will be considered a success, okay]

[Don't say much, just wait for QG to win six consecutive championships]

Chen Dongqing looked at the post and couldn't help but grin.

Obviously, no matter how deep the dog son is, it still can't be compared with QG, and in this pre-game discussion, the dog son was suppressed to the death.

Of course, this is not surprising.

QG hasn't lost in the past three years, they are all fans who have accumulated one victory after another, and they have eaten the largest traffic since the LPL cake became bigger.

"Let's go, Chen Dongqing." Linko urged on the side: "Let's go and record the interview and promotional video first, and after the recording, let's go eat Nanjing duck." ”

"Okay!" Chen Dongqing got up and walked to his room, changed into a summer team uniform, and ran to the stadium with his teammates.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two days have passed.

It's September 14th.

Nearly two o'clock in the afternoon, there was a long queue at the entrance of the Youth Olympic Sports Park, and countless men and women entered one after another, filling more than 20,000 seats under the stadium one after another.

After the Asian Games, the enthusiasm for e-sports in China has become more and more high, and the LPL Summer Finals, which followed closely after the Asian Games, has eaten the largest traffic, and the final tickets were even sold out at the speed of light within ten seconds of the sale, and the scalper tickets have reached sky-high prices!

Lin Qianhua entered as an internal employee, found her place in the front row and sat down, watching countless people come and go on the stage, making the final preparations for the opening ceremony.

On the big screen at the scene, the picture of the commentary seat hosted by Remember was playing, and the three people in the commentary seat were predicting the outcome of the data of the two teams.

"I have to say, the data of IG this summer tournament is great!" I remember that I couldn't help but be amazed at this statistic: "Their average time per game is shorter, but the average head per game is more, and the average damage is far ahead!" Almost to the extreme, the word fight! ”

"QG will lose in data, this is the first time we've seen it!" On the side, Wang Duoduo couldn't help but smile: "Of course, we also know that QG did not have Brother Shu involved in the first half of the regular season, and in the case of a broken lineup, this data is not indicative!" ”

"Of course, this data does add a touch of uncertainty to this final!" I remember saying at the end: "Who is the deer dead today, let's watch a short film first, after the short film, the finals begin!"

The promotional video of the finals is still the taste of the past, first an aerial shot over Nanjing, and soon the picture cuts to a close-up view of the interior, and the players on both sides emerge one after another in the dark, and finally all take the stage, looking at each other seriously on the left and right sides of the picture.

After the promotional video ended, the host Ren Dong appeared on the stage and shouted: "Okay, welcome to the 2018LPL Summer Finals!" This is the Nanjing Youth Olympic Sports Park venue! ”

"After more than three months of fighting, this summer's competition has finally come to an end! Now there are two teams that have come out of the league and are standing on this stage! ”

Ren Dong waved his hand and shouted: "First of all, let's invite this year's dark horse!" IG！ ”

"Top order TheShy! Jungler Ning! Mid laner Rookie! Lower JackeyLove! Auxiliary Baolan! ”

Five teenagers in white uniforms walked onto the stage from the left side of the stage, all five of them had excited smiles on their faces, obviously looking forward to this game!

Ren Dong then shouted: "Next, let's have another team for the finals. QG！ ”

The cheers from the audience ushered in the first wave of explosions!

"Order! iiiiiilex！！！ ”

Ren Dong dragged out his tone, and the voices of the audience became higher and higher!

It is not an exaggeration to say that there may be many viewers off the field who are dog sons, and they support IG.

But they will definitely give the same applause to Chen Dongqing.

As the face of the current LPL and even Chinese e-sports, Chen Dongqing is too perfect.

As long as you watch the game carefully, no one will have any opinion on Chen Dongqing.

"Jungler MLXG! Sell your account! Down the road Uzi! Assist Ming! ”

Amid the cries of countless spectators, the QG players also took the stage from the other side of the stage.

"Let's take a seat for both players! Get ready for the game to begin! Whether it is the continuation of the QG legend and the unprecedented six consecutive championships in LPL, or the IG dark horse counterattack and won the first championship in team history! Let's look forward to it together! ”

After a sentence, the players on both sides took their seats and Ren Dong withdrew!

The camera quickly cut to the commentary seat, and today's commentary lineup is Doll Miller plus a Guan Zeyuan, the three of them smiled at the camera, and they were all looking forward to the finals of this game.

The three of them talked about the next BP, and everyone was talking about it, and they felt that QG's BP did not seem to be superior.

As we all know, QG has a very key winning weapon, which is the hero pool of the double father, the hero pool of the double father is broad and fierce, so that the team's BP has an advantage, and even Abulai can BP decently.

But against IG, QG's advantage seems to be gone.

Sword Queen, Akali, Jace, Knife Girl.

Charlot, Verus, policewoman.

QG will, IG will.

Even IG has a unique enchantress in the middle lane, and there is also a Delevingne in the bottom lane, which QG has not mastered.

After careful calculation, it turned out that QG suffered more!

"Of course, it's one thing to have a hero pool, it's another thing to have a player handle the upper limit of different heroes." The doll listened to the message in the headset and said with a smile: "What is BP, we still have to wait for the two coaches to know when the two coaches meet!" ”

As soon as the doll's voice fell, the BP panel cut in.

Miller seized the opportunity and immediately said what he had heard in his headphones: "According to what we received, Team QG won the pre-match coin guessing session, so they had the right to pick sides in the 135 games, and chose the blue side for themselves at the beginning!" ”

"We can see that QG has already banned Galio for himself first-hand!"

The combination of Galio was discovered by QG and carried forward, and this combination is generally connected in the first and second hand of the red side, as the QG of the blue side, of course, it must be restricted.

On the other hand, the people of IG also seem to have been prepared, and their choice is to send Akali to the ban position!

"Needless to say, Akali is a choice, Brother Shu took it out in the last game of the Asian Games finals, and played a hero with a terrifying performance! And the occasional selection in the playoffs is also very terrifying! Miller smiled and said, "If nothing else, this hero should not be released by IG anyway." ”

Immediately after the second hand, both sides banned Bobby and Kenhime respectively.

In fact, TheShy really wanted to choose Jian Ji and Chen Dongqing to make a move, and he had done it before, but the results were not good, so now the IG coaching staff doesn't believe him very much, and honestly sends him to the ban position.

"And then there's the last hand, and the choice on both sides is to ban Jace and Knife Girl!" The doll hugged her chest and analyzed: "QG self-ban Jace, this is rare!" ”

Since Ban Jace's logic is not difficult to understand, QG's Jace can only be taken on the road, although fierce, but there are also restraint means.

And IG's Jace can swing in the middle of the middle, Rookie and TheShy are both Jace's unique brothers, with their red position, Jace's point will be difficult to deal with, so banning is the best choice.

As for the other side, then there is nothing to say, Chen Dongqing's knife sister is very terrifying, should it be a ban or a ban.

"Then, entering the selection stage, QG locks the sword demon in seconds with the first hand, and IG locks the cold ice gatam with a backhand!"

Cold Ice Plus Tam is IG's favorite combination of the lower lane, this combination has nothing to talk about, Cold Ice as a tool man AD, the mechanism is excellent, and Tamu assists Cold Ice by slowing down and pulling at the same time, and ensures the safety of the lower road by eating with one hand.

This hand choice was expected, and QG took advantage of the situation to lock on to Kaisha and Lo as a response.

Subsequently, IG confirmed a single player Ruiz and entered the second round of BP.

After entering the second round, the goals of both sides are also clear, QG chose to ban Zach and Olaf, and give all two ban positions to the jungler.

IG, on the other hand, banned Zoe and Sindra, wanting to restrict Xiaohu's wandering linkage.

Immediately after the fourth hand, IG locked on Zhao Xin and left the top road for the last choice.

"Come on, Brother Shu, what do you want to play?" Banbazi asked in the soundproof room: "Xiaohu can use the mid-laner sword demon to fight Ruiz, you can make a convenient order, of course you can play the sword demon if you want, and Xiaohu's BP can also be more comfortable." ”

When Chen Dongqing heard this, he said with a smile: "What is there to say?" Just give me the sword demon, I can play anything anyway, you make Li Yuanhao BP comfortable, it's good for us! He can't beat the other side! ”

When Xiaohu heard this, he immediately blushed and his neck was thick, and he choked and said, "What do you mean, I can't beat the other side!" I can beat it! ”

Xiangguo stabbed mercilessly at this time: "Hehe, I'm too lazy to say, if you can fight, we won't be killed in the regular season." ”

Xiaohu stopped talking now, he thought for a long time, and finally decided to lock on to the ice girl to fight against Ruiz, and then select the blind monk in the jungler position to make up for the damage in the middle field!

"Then now it's up to IG to use what hero to fight against Brother Shu's sword demon!" The doll opened her mouth and said, "Actually, there are not many heroes on the road outside!" ”

As soon as the doll's voice fell, IG's last hero was also determined.

Green Steel Shadow!

"Oh, TheShy!" On the commentary seat, Colonel Guan exclaimed again, "TheShy is still very energetic today!" This kind of hero has come out! ”

At this point, the heroes of both sides are determined.

Blue QG: Top Single Sword Demon, Jungler Blind Monk, Middle Single Ice Girl, Lower Road Kasha Gallo.

Red IG: Top laner Qinggang Shadow, jungler Zhao Xin, mid laner Ruiz, bottom lane cold ice Gadam.

The structure of the lineups on both sides is highly similar, with a tool man mid-laner, a carnivorous jungler, and a Carry top-laner.

"It's not hard to see that this will be a battle in the first half of the game!"

Miller looked at the lineup and analyzed it: "IG and QG, the two most fierce teams in the first half of our LPL, showed their best style of play in the first game of the finals!" ”

"So which side of this one can win, let's look forward to it together!"

I won't write much about this final, and the confrontation with IG in the World Championship is the highlight (end of this chapter)
