Chapter 161 [The Top Eight List Released]
It's really uncomfortable
They finished second in the group stage, and SKT and Rox are basically the No. 1 seeds, and if they meet in the quarterfinals early, the probability of reaching the semifinals is really low!
Chu Ge bumped fists with them in turn and walked to the center of the stage.
The North American audience at the Municipal Auditorium did not hesitate to applaud their applause, after all, IG's curtain call performance on the stage of the Municipal Auditorium, they have already qualified, and they are about to go to Chicago to prepare for the quarterfinals.
October 9th.
Group B officially opened, RNG won the group with a 5-1 success, and FW also came to qualify as the second in the group without any pressure.
On October 10, Group D, the last day, followed.
Today is the day to decide the life and death of EDG, and if they want to advance, they will have to come out of the 1-2 team.
The first battle between EDG and INTZ began.
In the face of this wild card team that almost ruined Guodian, EDG finally didn't drop the chain again this time, and Ming Kai grabbed his fans like a hammer.
Even when he was single-handed, Ming Kai showed his trademark disdainful smile under the camera, as if to say that's it?
The barrage is full of carnivals.
But the sunspots still seized the opportunity to squirt, and the team that won a wild card was numb, isn't this what should have been done?
Immediately afterwards, the competition in Group D continued.
North American home TSM vs. SKT.
But this time it was unexpected.
SKT actually lost to the North American cult!
The North American audience at the scene seemed to have an intracranial orgasm, and the cheers that erupted in an instant felt like they had cracked the main beam of the venue.
Immediately afterwards, TSM won INTZ without pressure, completely announcing that this wild card region bid farewell to this World Championship in advance.
And EDG faces SKT.
The version was too slow to adapt, which led to their normal game being led by the nose by SKT, and the final record came to 2-3.
This means that they must beat TSM in back-to-back games to have a chance of qualifying for the play-offs, but if they lose, EDG will completely break through to the quarter-finals.
Seeing this, everyone on IG was a little worried.
After all, even in the situation of winning the game, the junior brother's performance was a little unsatisfactory, and they really had little hope of winning by Pilsen's rhythm.
Obviously.
EDG understands it in its heart.
So General Pawn was carried out.
In this game against TSM, Ming Kai seemed to activate the DNA of the Saiwen Ancestor in his body, and sent the North American cult away with an economic gap of 1W at the 26th minute!
In the playoffs, Pawn was still on the field, and Victor was selected to play with an immortal supergod, successfully mastered the thunder and lightning in the middle lane, contained Pilsen, and lifted EDG into the quarterfinals.
"Congratulations LPL!"
Doll said loudly, "Although EDG had twists and turns, they still managed to get the last seat in the knockout round, and all three of our teams entered the quarterfinals this year!" ”
At this point, the group stage schedule is officially over, and the eight teams that have confirmed their promotion have also come to the scene one after another, ready to participate in the draw ceremony of the knockout round.
The originally spacious backstage has long been overcrowded, and in addition to the teams that have been eliminated, there are also many teams that have been eliminated here.
Anyway, their hotel hasn't expired yet, and it's close to the site, so of course they don't mind coming to the site to take a look, after all, they didn't have much hope.
Fans and viewers won't blow them up and let them try to see if the waters of the Pacific Ocean are cool.
Chu Ge and the others were participating for the first time, and they didn't know the rules, but Vincent reminded them, and then they knew that there was a link to exchange team uniforms after the game.
So they also prepared a few pieces in advance.
As for how much you can exchange, it's basically based on fame.
However, Little Peanut ran to Chu Ge in a hurry, exchanged the team uniforms, and the two also took a group photo.
Stop
Today's Han Wanghu's eyes are really bright, that is the most sincere desire of the players for professional champions!
After exchanging uniforms with other players.
Chu Ge, Ming Kai and Uzi were called aside by Vincent and instructed about waiting for the stage to draw lots.
"Don't stand up when you get on stage!" Vincent pointed to the ground floor of the guild hall, "There are the logos of each team pasted there, just walk up."
At this time, Han Wanghu also walked over and communicated with Chu Ge with a smile, "I hope our two teams can meet on the final stage, so that Smeb can prove who is the world's No. 1 top singler!" ”
In the interview with English and Korean streams, Chu Ge made it clear that he hoped to fight with Rox, and Xiao Peanut and Chu Ge had a good relationship, so they would naturally give him face.
"Then I hope you can make it to the top four alive!" Chu Ge smiled, "Otherwise, I will be very sad to lose a strong opponent." ”
"I should say this to you!"
Han Wanghu was not angry, and walked back to the side of the other two team representatives with a smile, "Come on, Dow, we are the orthodox representatives of the version!" ”
Chu Ge nodded.
He turned his head to look at Ming Kai again, and teased with a smile, "Brother Kai, you don't want to meet us in the quarterfinals, do you!" ”
"It doesn't matter," Ming Kai spread his hands, "Anyway, we can't meet SKT, and the remaining No. 1 seed team is only the men and RNG except for Rox, so it's better to fight a civil war in advance than to meet them." ”
"Anyway, if you lose in the hands of your kid, I won't lose it, after all, it's also a member of our team, so I have 1/3 of the credit!"
"Where's your fighting spirit?"
Chu Ge's face was full of surprise, "What about S3's promise, S4's factory director, and S5's invincible demon king Ming Kai?" If you hear this to the piglets, you will probably be blasted again! ”
"I'm a little tired."
Ming Kai put his arm around his friend's shoulders and sighed, "When I let you go, I was actually selfish, buddy, I don't want to change!" ”
"It's just a little regretful, do you want to consider coming back in the next year, and fight with my brother again?"
"Yes! But I have one request."
"You have to break through the quarterfinals this year and enter the semi-finals, and I will grant your request!"
Mingkai rolled his eyes.
"Pawn's contract with Deft expires this year, and Abu has worked with them in advance, but. . . They didn't show any intention of renewing their contract. ”
"In our current state. It's a bit difficult to break through the quarterfinals, except for a little hope for RNG, we can't beat any of them. ”
Chu Ge didn't speak, but patted the factory director on the back.
Their group of veteran players have carried the LPL for so many years, and although they did not leave their ID on the summoner trophy, their pursuit of the championship is absolutely enthusiastic!
Otherwise, Ming Kai would not have made a plot of fish dying and the net was broken.
After all, it is impossible to leave the team successfully after discussing with the WE management, so Ming Kai can really go to sell meat muffins and live broadcast with the veteran players to make money.
The two exchanged for a while, and Vincent reminded Chu Ge that the three of them were going to go on stage to prepare for the lottery ceremony.
Live streaming.
The lottery guests and team representatives have come to the stage, and the specific matchups of the quarterfinals will be announced soon.
