In the S3 season, in the early stage of the finals, Riot interviewed EDG, and in that interview, the EDG team answered very modestly.

Even in EDG, which already had the title of the world's No. 1 at that time, Shan Lu Yiming's answers were relatively easy-going, without any disparaging words.

At that time, EDG's mid-laner Lu Yiming was very popular in South Korea, and his reputation was also quite good, and many Korean LOL players still liked Lu Yiming, the world's No. 1 mid-laner.

Although there was a period of time in the middle, Lu Yiming's reputation was a little not good, but Korean fans did not turn black and frantically smeared Lu Yiming.

But just a year later, Team EDG changed.

The EDG team is now fully inflated, and every member of the team did not take the OGN region seriously during the interview, just like the LPL audience before the S3 All-Stars, they swelled down on the OGN region.

Especially Lu Yiming, in the 2013 All-Star Game, Lu Yiming repeatedly emphasized the importance of the OGN team, and has always reminded the royal family to pay attention to the OGN team at the S3 World Championship.

Now the EDG team directly looks down on the OGN team, or the EDG team only sees the LPL team in their eyes, and the other regions are rubbish.

After the release of EDG's short film, it caused a huge heated discussion in LOL circles around the world.

First of all, the first hot topic is the EDG Fifteen Thrones.

EDG Fifteen Throne short film gives a strong sense of oppression to the participating teams in other regions, EDG15 children sitting on the throne, are all LOL top professional players, each of them is full of confidence, looking at everyone with contempt in their eyes.

Can anyone overthrow the rule of the fifteenth son of EDG?

The teams participating in this year's S4 Finals are all asking themselves in their hearts, they have no answers in their hearts, and EDG's fifteen sons are like three mountains, pressing on their heads and making them breathless.

The EDG Fifteen Thrones put a lot of pressure on the participating teams in other regions, and after they watched Lu Yiming's ridicule at the back of the EDG short film, their mentality suddenly exploded.

The EDG team has never regarded them as opponents.

For the remarks of the EDG team, players in the European and American divisions are slightly better, and players in the European and American divisions who have experienced the triple jump of the LMQ Tianci team and the triple jump of the ADG team have already admitted that their division is not good.

But not in the Korean OGN division.

As we all know, Little Stick has always been the Five (YouTube) Chang Empire, a developed country in the world, which also leads to the people of the Great Han Underworld being very confident in themselves.

This is vividly reflected on the world map of the underworld of Korea.

As the world's top power, the Korean underworld naturally can't accept that its country is looked down upon by small China, especially in terms of e-sports.

When Korean e-sports began to be systematically trained, they also considered e-sports to be an Internet addiction and wanted to send e-sports players to electrotherapy.

In an unequal environment, the Huaxia LPL region looked down on the OGN region of the Korean underworld, and Lu Yiming said something humiliating to the OGN region, which made the teams and audiences in the OGN region extremely angry.

And Lu Yiming, the world's No. 1 midlaner, has a reputation in the OGN division.

"Damn the EDG team, they look down on me so much in the OGN division, why do they look down on me in the OGN division, look at the three stars in the OGN division and the ten sons in the OGN division will definitely kill the fifteen sons of EDG this year!"

"In the past, I just thought that the EDG team was a strong team, and I still had some respect for the EDG team, but now it seems that the EDG team is a pure livestock team, and the West Eight EDG is all cremated!"

"Assi, what are our teams doing, you have all been trampled on the head by the LPL, Xiba EDG, if you don't have a bit of sportsmanship, such a team should be banned!"

"Don't scold, everyone, the EDG team is just a small country, our Republic of Korea must have the bearing of a big country, don't worry about the EDG team from a small country!"

"Godfather? Father? I'm sorry, what bullshit, it's almost the same as calling Father, I declare that in the future, GodFather will be a professional player who will call Father and call Dad when he sees the OGN Division! ”

"What is called a father, is called a beast, is a beast, there is an ancient saying in my Great Han Republic of China called a well-dressed beast, GodFather is this kind of clothed beast."

"Our Dahan Republic was so humiliated by the LPL, if the OGN team can't beat the EDG team this year, I think the LOL e-sports project will be disbanded.

The e-sports industry is a small industry that is not in the flow for us in the Republic of China, and LOL e-sports projects are even more discarded industries.

We, the Korean underworld, withdrew from the LOL e-sports project, and the game LOL will definitely die because of this.

LOL can't rely on a small Huaxia to become more and more popular! ”

"In fact, it's normal that you can't beat it, the future pillar of Huaxia is the LOL e-sports project, but the LOL e-sports project is not on the table in our country!"

"From today on, I will hold a knife in my hand, see a CnDog, see a fan who calls the beast, and kill all the labors and management with a knife!"

"The most disgusting professional player, a single beast in EDG!"

In the OGN division, most of the audience of OGN frantically sprayed the EDG team in the major LOL forums, and sprayed Lu Yiming angrily.

There are also some OGN insiders who think that if OGN still can't beat LPL this year, OGN can actually consider giving up the game LOL and turning to the arms of Dota 2.

Now that the LOL e-sports project has become the pillar of China's future, there is no need for the OGN region to compete with the pillar of China's future.

As the start time of the S4 World Championship is getting closer and closer, with the launch of the short film of the EDG team, the smell of gunpowder in the LOL e-sports circle is getting stronger and stronger.

Especially in the two divisions of LPL and OGN, it is already common knowledge for the audience to scold each other across the divisions.

In the atmosphere of more and more scolding, the S4 World Finals began!

"You say, will Riot make some small moves during the draw?"

EDG conference hall, EDG15 children gathered in the EDG conference hall to watch the group stage group stage group ceremony of the fist on the big screen.

This year, Riot has removed the privilege of the No. 1 seed team in each region to directly enter the top 8, and the participating teams in each region need to start from the group stage play-in round.

In the previous life, when the seeded team played in the group stage in the S4 season, Riot also stipulated a principle of avoiding the group stage in the same division, but this year Riot did not have a life.

This also means that in the group stage, the same division can be a group.

The 16 participating teams are divided into 4 groups, of which the two groups A and B will compete at the National University Gymnasium in Taiwan Province, and the two groups C and D will compete at the Xinpo International Exhibition Center.

The 16 teams were assigned by lot, and the draw ceremony was taking place on the big screen at the moment.

"Probably not, fists are not lottery tickets after all, and I don't think it's interesting to do this little action."

Lu Yiming estimated that Riot would not engage in this thing, Riot they had already revised the rules, and if they continued to do their tricks in the lottery, it would be too low-level.

"I always thought Riot wouldn't be so kind!"

Sima Lao Thief is a firm believer in conspiracy theories, and he always feels that Riot will definitely do things in the lottery.

"I also feel that the fists may move and kick, and now the only ones who can stop us are the group!"

Gao Dewei and Sima Lao Thief had the same thoughts, Gao Dehu sat next to Lu Yiming, and when he saw the staff in charge of grouping on the screen, he couldn't stabilize his mood:

"It's started, it's started, the grouping will start immediately, I hope the EDG15 don't fight each other in the group stage!"

In the picture, the four staff members of the fist all walked in with a wooden plate.

There were four identical black balls on the wooden plate, and after the staff placed the balls on the table, the fist staff in charge of the lottery walked up with a large glass box.

"Please observe, the glass box is just an ordinary glass box, and there is no so-called dark grid."

The fist staff put down the glass box and showed it to the camera, and the camera immediately gave a close-up of the glass box, which was an empty glass box, and the inside could be clearly seen from the outside, and the outside could also be clearly seen from the entrance of the glass box.

After showing the glass box to all the spectators watching the draw, the Fist crew straightened the glass box, and he placed sixteen small black balls in the glass box and put his hand in it to stir.

The transparent glass box can be seen in any operation, and sixteen small black balls are constantly rolling in the glass box, and there is no sticking or being adsorbed.

In order to prove its fairness, Fist also deliberately arranged an upper position, which can be seen clearly from the upper entrance, so as to ensure that no black ball will be grabbed by the Fist staff and not lost.

After demonstrating that the draw was absolutely fair, the Riot staff began to pull out the balls, open them, and then pull out the slips of paper representing the participating teams and hold them up to show the crowd.

On the front of this note is the name and benchmark of each participating team, and on the back is the logo of Riot.

After the display, the Riot staff folded the note inwards to cover the front and reveal the Fist Company logo on the back.

Immediately afterward, the Riot staff stuffed the note into the black ball and threw it into the glass box.

The black balls representing the sixteen teams were all placed in the glass box, and the fist staff put their hands in the glass box and began to stir left and right.

After stirring for about thirty seconds, the fist staff opened their hands and placed them in the glass box, and used a hugging motion to touch the small black balls in the glass box.

After dozens of hugs, the Fist crew stopped their movements and nodded at the camera.

"I apologize to Fist, it's still fair for Fist to do this, at least everyone can see the operation clearly." Sima Lao Thief apologized to Fist, and Fist seemed to really want to show the fairness of his lottery this time.

Last year, when S Series Finals were finals, Riot didn't do anything like that.

"If the lottery is like this, I still firmly believe that the lottery is unfair and is a means of show."

"But there shouldn't be a problem with Fist doing this."

Lu Yiming grinned, his uncle likes to buy lottery tickets and play, but his uncle doesn't play much, about a thousand yuan a year.

Lu Yiming remembers very well that his uncle almost won the jackpot when he bought a lottery ticket in 14 years, and in his previous life, his uncle showed off this to him, saying that he could win the 5 million jackpot if he changed two numbers on his number to 8.

For the lottery win, Lu Yiming did not believe it, in his previous life, someone once said that the lottery is not probability, but statistics.

It's rare to be reborn once,Plus Lu Yiming's uncle has the habit of recording his own lottery numbers when he buys lottery tickets,Lu Yiming asked his uncle's lottery numbers,After modifying the lottery numbers,Bought dozens of notes to test the water。

The results are clear.

Reborn people buy lottery tickets as their first pot of gold, that's impossible, you can't grasp the lottery thing at all.

It's spinach like football, it's still possible.

"Brother Lu said so, so I guess there is no problem."

Gao Dehuchuan's face changed dramatically, and he immediately matched Lu Yiming's words.

Under the watchful eyes of the world's audience, the draw for the group stage of the S4 Finals began.

The first team drawn by the Riot crew was Team Dark Passage in the Wild Card Zone, and Team DP was placed in Group A as part of Group A.

Immediately afterwards, the second team to be drawn was the LMQ Tianci team, seeing the LPL region (crossed out), and seeing the third seed in the North American LCS region being drawn, EDG everyone couldn't help but glance at each other.

"LMQ in Group B!"

"Yes, the first team group in the LPL will appear!"

Immediately after that, the Riot staff pulled out a black ball again, and when they opened the black ball, the scene erupted in a few cheers.

“EDward Gaming！”

The Riot staff read out the third team that was drawn, and the LPL audience immediately exclaimed.

", Group C, damn Group C is the death group, EDE and ADG don't draw Group C!"

"The group that EDG is in is definitely the death team!"

Seeing EDG in Group C, many teams' hearts were raised, and they kept praying that they would never be in the same group as the EDG team.

Unaffected, he reached out again and unfolded the note.

"Wuhu, Ouye!!!"

"Oooo

At the moment when the note was announced, Gao Dehu, who was sitting next to Lu Yiming, jumped up from his chair and cheered in celebration, and the fourth one to be drawn was the ADG team, which also meant that they avoided the EDG team and were assigned to Group D!

After Gao Dehu, who was extremely excited, jumped up with a smile, and saw that Lu Yiming was not smiling, he immediately restrained the expression on his face and kept looking at Lu Yiming's expression.

A few seconds later, the corners of Lu Yiming's mouth rose slightly: "Four draws, three of the LPL directly, this probability is a bit high!" ”

"Isn't this nonsense, there are five teams in the LPL, and the probability of winning the lottery is high." Ming Kai rolled his eyes, from the perspective of probability, the probability of LPL being drawn is the largest.

"Yes, hahaha!"

Lu Yiming laughed, and when Gao Dehu saw this, he also laughed loudly, and he kept patting his legs happily.

Team ADG and Team EDG are staggered, and their ADG team will have a chance to reach the quarterfinals.

As long as it's not the top 16, it's a success for the ADG team!

The group stage continued with the sixth draw, where Riot staff drew SSB.

OGN, Samsung base, SSB team saw that they were assigned to Group B, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, if they didn't meet the EDG team in the group stage, they would have no big problem qualifying.

"OH, Team 2 met Team ADG!"

"The second team is in Group D, this time the group is really good, we are all staggered by the EDG team."

Seeing that the SSW team just missed Group C and was assigned to Group D, Samsung Shizi had a smile on his face, although there were ADG teams in Group D, but EDG's three teams were not worth mentioning!

The SSW team didn't take the ADG team into account, they were targeting the EDG Ten Sons, not the ADG team that was sent abroad!

"The OMG team is in Group A, a good grouping, Group A is currently a garbage team, and there is no problem for the OMG team to advance."

"Damn, is the second team so lucky, they directly staggered BCD, and were the last one to be assigned to Group A, the second team, you are going to advance side by side with the OMG team!"

Seeing that the EDE team just missed a round and was assigned to Group A, Sima Lao Thief felt that the second team was really lucky.

The 4 teams in Group A have been released, which is a recognized escort group, and there is no problem for the second team to appear together with the OMG team.

"Luck is really good, the top 8 is definitely no problem!"

"I should say that our luck is very good, the strong teams are not together!"

"We're lucky, we're lucky in the OGN region, all three teams are separated, and it feels like the OGN region is going to be in the quarterfinals."

EDG all feel that the luck of the OGN division is also against the sky, and it is estimated that the teams in the OGN division have also absorbed the luck of their men's football team, and their football superstar Son Xingmin may not play well after that.

The group stage of the S4 division has ended.

Group A: DP teams in the Wild Card Division, TPA teams in the Provincial Division, OMG teams in the LPL Division, and EDE teams in the LPL Division.

Group A is a recognized escort group, and OMG and EDE, the two teams in the LPL region, should be able to advance together.

And what makes the OMG team comfortable is that according to the principle of group avoidance, they will not meet the EDE team in the top 8.

Team B: LMQ in North America, SSB in OGN, KM in Wild Card, and C9 in North America.

Group C teams: EDG teams in the LPL region, FNC teams in the European region, AHQ teams in the provincial teams, and NJW teams in the OGN region.

Group D teams: ADG in North America, SSW in OGN, Alliance in Europe, and TSM in North America.

The audience in the LPL region and the audience in the OGN region were very satisfied with this grouping.

Looking at the 4 groups, the teams that qualified in Group A were the least divided, and the goal of the wild card DP team and the provincial team TPA was to enjoy the game.

In Group B, SSB is basically not a big problem to qualify, and the other one that qualifies is basically C9.

After all, Team LMQ was defeated by C9 in the playoffs.

Group C is known as the Group of Death.

There is no problem for the team in Group C EDG to qualify, and the other one depends on who is stronger FNC or NJW.

As for Group D, in fact, this group is the real group of death, and every team in the group is a very strong team.

Team ADG, the No. 1 seed in Europe.

Team SSW, the second seed in the OGN region.

Team Alliance, second seed in Europe.

Team TSM, North America's No. 1 seed!

Two No. 1 seeds, two No. 2 seeds, it's hard to say who will qualify.

Group D, the real death group of the S4 season, the group stage of this group, will be the best group stage of the entire S4!
