The city hall was still full of people, and most of the audience did not leave, but remained on the scene to watch the next lottery ceremony.

North American host Iv and his partner walked to the center of the stage and raised the microphone before the hall gradually fell silent.

"After 11 days of intense competition, sixteen teams from each region were selected to make it to the knockout round," Riv's majestic voice echoed throughout the auditorium, "Let's welcome the representatives from the four group winners!" ”

"They are Rox tiger, Royal Never Give Up, Invictus Gaming, and SK Telecom Team 1!"

At the end, he deliberately shouted the full name of SKT with a long tail note, but this was also forced to do so.

TSM, the last glory in North America in Group D, finally lost to the quarterfinals after losing to EDG in the playoffs, which means that the entire 6 European and American players all lost to the quarterfinals.

CLG, the only North American No. 2 seed with some hope, was unexpectedly dropped by wild card ANX, and the home of the North American audience was stolen.

As a world-renowned and prestigious SKT, it has habitually become the home team of the adaptive team of European and American audiences, constantly cheering and slapping the cheering stick.

SKT's player representative is the only Li brother Wolf, and Rox Tiger is naturally Smeb, who is ranked first on the list of players by Riot.

The two of them didn't look at each other at all, and when they walked on stage, Chu Ge could still vaguely hear Wolf wanting Smeb to call him brother, but unfortunately Song Jinghao was also a tough temper and didn't like him at all.

The next four group 2 teams are represented by ANX, FW, SSG and EDG.

The audience swept over at a glance, three LPLs, three LCKs, and then interspersed with a crooked team, and the last one was a wild card.

Seven Asian teams made the North American audience feel a little hot in the face, compared to the World Finals held in France last year.

It's really that EU is greater than NA.

However, they also know that in FPS games, European and American teams have an absolute advantage, after all, the shooting is grabbed from the doll, and it is normal to be strong.

But in the MOBA space, Asians are far ahead.

Cuvee looked a little off-faced.

In the past two days, the public opinion of the Korean Open has liquidated them, and as a team in the first division, they can only rank second in the group, which is simply a shame for the LCK.

The more mythical equipment [Holy Separator] is not available now, otherwise the fans and viewers of the LCK will hate to cut justice in minutes.

Who is SSG? Uncooked!

Under the mouth of the two North American hosts, after the representatives of the eight teams who came to participate in the lottery ceremony arrived, the guests who drew lots also appeared in turn.

The first guest is Wildturtle, an ancient AD player from Canada who made his debut when Captain Reginald was still playing mid-laner at TSM.

Until this year, he was replaced by the big brother in his starting position.

Captain Gorilla was one of the first LOL pro players, and he started his career in S1, completely dominating the early League of Legends professional game with the original TSM members, which also made TSM the most popular super team in the world.

The origin of the cult in North America was created by them.

Seeing the smiling Wild Turtle Brother appear, Tabe in the background couldn't help but laugh a little.

Brother Wild Turtle only debuted relatively early, but his career resume is actually not very beautiful, but when TSM played LGD last year, the Tianling cover of imp skateboarding shoes with a hammer hammer still made LPL audiences remember him completely.

"It's good that this guy wasn't in our group last year," the child You Shen also noticed the assistant teacher's smile, and sighed, "Otherwise, these three sticks will become my child with the name of an Imp." ”

Be reasonable.

Of the three teams participating in S5, the degree of anti-heaven LGD and IG of the coaching staff is actually comparable, and maybe these stalks can really be transferred to IG.

"I'm not convinced!"

Posture put down the phone and hurriedly shouted, "I've never been afraid of others in my career, Huni is one, if I really meet TSM, you see how I get them and it's over!" ”

"Huh!"

Baolan was a little surprised, "Liu Zhihao, why are you here, didn't you go to the west coast with PDD to see the sunrise in reverse?" ”

Emergency substitutions are really nothing to do.

He is not needed for training in the team, and he has nothing to do with the training team every day, so it is better to go with PDD and them to find the beach in GTA5.

Maybe you can go up and down, left and right, and BABA, go and adjust some equipment to be a five-star citizen.

Even on IG's promotional poster, there is not even a makeup photo of Zz1tai's Beijing lady, and there is no Kid card yet.

The posture of not being able to hold his face simply used powerless means to shut up Baolan, but the result was very surprising.

seems to be a stronger posture, but he couldn't control the thin monkey-like Wang Liuyi at all, and easily broke free from the shackles with three times and five divided by two.

"Tsk!"

Baolan's face was full of disdain, "Brother Zhihao, it's been almost a month since you came to the United States, why hasn't your body recovered yet!" ”

"You kid"

The posture was a little red, but it was really powerless to stand up to him.

"Okay brothers," Zhu Songge smiled and waved his hand, signaling them to be quiet, "look at the opponents behind us, and hope there will be no civil war!" ”

The draw for the quarterfinals on the TV screen officially began.

RIV read out the rules of the lottery to the TV and the fans and audience at the scene before the lottery to clarify the crude oil to be conducted in groups.

The eight teams will be divided into two halves, and the winners will advance to the semi-finals with the winners of the same half.

The team that wins the group will not meet but will be assigned to the second team in the group.

According to the principle of avoidance in the same group, the teams that qualify from the same group will not be placed in the same half, and will only meet again in the final.

There are two black square tables in front of the wild turtle brother, the card pool numbers of 'Pool1' and 'Pool2' are pasted in front of the square platform, and the plane of the square platform is placed with two transparent glass jars, each with four gray balls inside.

Under everyone's gaze, Brother Wild Turtle, who was wearing a blue shirt, slowly stretched his arm into the glass jar, stirred for a moment and found a gray ball in the No. 1 card pool.

Slowly unfold the ribbon inside.

SKT！

The audience below the stage cheered again.

Then, in the same way, he pulled out the second one, twisted it open, and took out the ribbon, revealing the black and gold team logo of the RNG.

The teams in the top half of the bracket are SKT and RNG.

"It's over," King Ning patted his mouth with a stunned face, "I really let the crow's mouth of the pigeon be right, if we compete well in the quarterfinals, we really want to play ROX!" ”

Wang Cheng had a dark face and crushed the hamburger in his hand, as if to vent his anger, "It's okay to hit SKT, why do you want to hit RIX!" ”

They made many training appointments with the Tigers, but the final results were not ideal, with more losses and fewer wins, and life and death were unpredictable in head-to-head confrontation.

No way.

The strength of Rox Tiger's Ueno players is on par with IG, and even Ning Wang is often suppressed by Little Peanut, and Chu Ge can't open the situation on the road.

Although Kuro is a little inferior, he has only been curd by Faker in the LCK, and Rookie's current form is not much different from him, and he has not yet reached the peak of S8.

In other words, IG Nakaueno can't open the situation.

Baolan and Wuxx in the lower lane can't take any advantage in the face of the two elders of Xuanming, who have many years of cooperation experience, and even the handling of team battles in the middle and late stages is slightly inferior.

What Wang Cheng said is also what Tabe thinks now.

They'd rather face SKT than ROX these days.

IG was then assigned to Group C in the lower half, while ROX was assigned to Group D.

The wild turtle brother on the court pouted and also came to the No. 2 seed pool, anyway, the North American home team was eliminated, and it didn't matter who advanced to him.

The first team to be drawn is EDG!

Ming Kai's face was calm, and he couldn't see any change in mood.

Now there are only two teams left, either playing RNG or ROX, it doesn't really matter.

If you hit RNG, he will really die laughing.

In the World Championship, he can finally break through the curse of the quarterfinals.

And even if it is against Rox Tiger, the No. 2 seed loses to the No. 1 seed in the LCK, and it is not a shame that the No. 2 seed loses everything in the group stage anyway.

It's a big deal to continue to be ridiculed for things like [garbage Mingkai, words and paintings, and the top eight every year].

Riot China and the Banana Project are now also considering creating a new god, and it just so happens that his top eight in the old era should also go down the mountain, and he will have a good rest from next year.

The smiling face of the big Russian bearded brother in a black sweatshirt and braided hair was pulled down in an instant, as if he wanted to take Brother Wild Turtle's hand to feed the pet black bear!

Although they eliminated Rox in the group stage, they still felt fear in the face of the double champion SKT.

Rox Tiger prefers to take the initiative in the early and middle stages, playing very aggressively, which undoubtedly has the advantage of speeding up the pace of the game and quickly accumulating advantages in a short period of time.

The problem with this is also obvious.

Taking the initiative to attack also means that there will be a lower margin for error, and it is very likely that the opponent will lose the rhythm of mastering the situation if the opponent takes a few chances.

When ANX defeated Rox Tiger, it was by using a strange move like the Ice Bird that successfully contained the Tigers' attack and won the victory.

SKT is different.

Like SSG, their offensive rhythm in the early stage is not intensive, mainly relying on the line change period and mid-to-late stage operations, and winning the game by turning the tables.

It's a pity to say.

The teams in various major regions around the world, in terms of the ability to turn the tables and operate in the middle and late stages, SKT is definitely a unique team.

ANX would rather play IG than SKT, after all, their style is somewhat similar to that of the Tigers, at least they can learn from the experience of the group stage.

At this time, he had to shake hands with Wolf in the center of the stage, but the strength was a little greater, and Brother Li was obviously a little breathless.

Immediately afterward, the draw continued, which would determine the opponents for the quarterfinals for RNG.

FW was pumped out.

But at this time, the problem arises, FW and RNG are in the same group, and they can't meet before the finals, so according to the rules, they slipped into the bottom half.

After dodging RNG, I met IG!

Chu Ge smiled.

50% is because he didn't give himself a chance to fight in the civil war, and the other 50% is to give the factory director the respect for playing 4396 in the face of Little Peanut.

The horse stepped on the flying arrow, 4396 Chu Ge felt that he could pick up Mingkai's wool again, but it was a pity that there was a time cooldown limit for triggering the famous stalk.

Otherwise, the proficiency of the two heroes will not be beautiful!

What should come will come.

Chu Ge and Karsa walked from the left and right sides of the stage to the middle to shake hands, and he could clearly feel that a bitter smile appeared on Pizza's face.

When the two teams were drawn together, it was obvious that it was the FW that was uncomfortable

They finally drew a weak Group B, and when they reached the quarterfinals, they met the dark horse IG who won all the group stages.

It's epic!

Then the rest of the groupings came out quickly, and the eliminated teams were finally confirmed.

Top half: SKT vs. ANX, RNG vs. SSG

The bottom half: IG vs. FW, ROX vs. EDG

Paenut was a little flustered at the back of the stage, and immediately laughed at Kuro, "Finally able to meet my idol on the BO5 stage!" ”

Kuro burst out laughing.

Ever since the Brazilian jungler publicly said in an interview that he was a fan of the factory director, and then kicked him out with a blind monk, the words "I'm a fan" and "I'm my idol" have become memes.

Little Peanut also publicly said on Twitter that he is a fan of ClearLove, and it is a good experience to be able to play with idols now.

moreover

After watching the group stage, everyone knows that the current EDG state is extremely poor, and they are about to break General Pawn's waist, a proper reverse version of the team.

Can a mid laner vampire still come out?

Isn't this a proper game that is won solely by the individual strength of the players?

The group stage is so long, they haven't touched the surface of the version, counting on the short few days since the quarterfinals after the group stage to grope for the version?

Very blue spicy!

"Ahh On the LPL commentary seat, Long Hair was a little incredulous, "IG's script, if you win the championship in the end, this gold content is full!" ”

EDG is generally not favored these days.

But Long Hair, as the commentator of the LPL, must be speaking to his team, "But if EDG can also win ROX and fight a civil war in the semifinals, then we will guarantee the finals!" ”

Su Xiaoyan was silent for a moment.

He has watched IG grow up to the present, and she is not too worried in the face of the lightning wolf, but worried about the future game.

IG wants to win the championship.

You have to beat ROX, and then beat a certain LCK team in the top half, who arranged this script!

When Chu Ge returned to the lounge backstage.

The players obviously looked a little unsightly, and it was obvious that they didn't draw a good draw this time.

FW in the quarterfinals is also counted.

But after all, he is also the No. 1 seed from the LMS region, which is still a little more difficult than other teams in pool 2, but that doesn't mean he can't play!

They want to win the championship

You'll have to think about every opponent in the future!

First defeated SSG in the group stage, then played Rox in the semifinals, and finally met SKT in the finals, right? If he wins the championship, this gold content will not tear Krdog's mouth apart!

But the wood is already in the boat, so you can't redraw the lot!

After the draw, the sixteen teams that came to San Francisco will also choose various means of transportation back to the club, and the three North American teams just formed a bus to go back.

And for the teams that qualify, it's their next stop!

Chicago!
