Chapter 184: The Quarterfinals Grouping That Makes People Crack!

EDG defeated Samsung to lock in the first place in the group in advance, so far several families are happy and a few are worried.

SSG is naturally worried, after all, there are still a bunch of North American brothers in the audience, and it would be really fun to lose a game and be forced to play the round of 16 in the playoffs and go home.

The IMP who came home in the last Double 16 is still set on the pillar of shame, oh, his reputation in the LCK is already very bad?

Then it's nothing.

RNG is also worried.

Even if the heart is as big as a spicy fragrant pot, he feels embarrassed and panicked, and he can't wait to get out of a three-bedroom and a living room under his feet for them to get in.

The three teams of LPL, EDG and IG are both the first in the group, and the second place in your RNG group is also a crazy playoff, and it almost likes to mention the quarterfinals of the two years, counting the quarterfinals of last year, it really tied that man's record in one fell swoop.

As for the yin and yang weird IG is too weak in the group, and not many people pay attention to it, after all, you have the ability to draw a lottery yourself, and six consecutive wins are not snatched out of thin air, and if you lose to FW and then lose FNC, won't it be even more shameless?

Interestingly, when the director turned the camera from the EDG game seat to the other side, several C9 brothers entered the country and frantically waved the EDG flag under the stage.

On the stage, he walked to the opposite side with a wave of eyes that were about to kill.

After shaking hands with several SSG brothers, Jiang Zhun and the five of them came to the center of the stage again to accept the applause of the audience.

Hey, this is very comfortable, five bows in five games, although it is necessary to prevent the instability of the old waist, but anyone can see that the mood of the players is quite good.

"Xiao Jiang, go for an interview, and at the next mouse, go and go through the tactical suggestions you collected with the analyst."

Coming down from the stage, Nofe motioned to Jiang Zhun to tell the host before leaving.

Now the young people cheering in the audience have long been EDG's trump cards, and nofe doesn't just treat the other party as an ordinary player.

Nexus is where it is today because of his strong will to listen to the advice of others and execute it perfectly.

The Mediterranean brother who was called still did not change his image a little, a few flowing hairs were pulled obliquely at the corners of his eyes, and he obviously wanted to put his hands in his pockets to show off his new suit, but he was stunned to look out of the greasy appearance of a middle-aged man.

Since it was the battle for the top spot in the group, the five of them had to go to different interview venues.

A few minutes later, Jiang Zhun, who had put away the peripherals, followed the staff to the English interview desk.

"Wow! Nexus player, your size and your style of play really match. ”

Meeting with the host, Sjokz's undisguised look made Jiang Zhun a little uncomfortable, but he was a little puzzled by the figure and playing style in the other party's mouth, and asked, "Body and playing style?" ”

"yes, just like the American team in the Marvel movies, strong and reliable!"

"I'm sorry, I actually prefer Iron Man!"

"Can you tell me why?" Sjokz is interested, and it would be better for her to know more about the contestants she will be interviewing.

Jiang Zhun said bluntly, "With the body of a mortal, it can be compared to a god......"

……

"After winning the crucial game, EDG has already determined the first place in the group in advance, I wonder how Nexus is feeling now?"

On the interview stage, Sjokz, who was once again shocked by the shouts of the audience at the Wuhan Sports Center, asked with a smile.

Jiang Zhun held the peripherals of several clubs in his hands, and threw them out to the LPL fans in the audience, and then turned around and took the microphone, "The three teams in Group A are very strong, and we deal with every game with an all-out attitude, and winning the game is the biggest feedback for me and my teammates, I am very happy." ”

Sjokz looked at the other party's arm with interest, and found that the gift he had just thrown out actually reached the outermost row of the infield, and he couldn't help but smack his tongue, which was really intoxicating muscles!

Brainstorming was underway, but Sjokz remained unmoved and continued to ask the second question.

"You've used five different heroes in Nexus so far, and we've seen a huge change from previous years in this year's EDG, can I understand that EDG is still experimenting with tactics so far?"

"In fact, every match is the team's practice of the tactics used in the training match, and it is obviously wrong to describe it as an experiment, and it is disrespectful to the competition if the lineup is not selected after thousands of tempers."

It can be said that this answer is quite level.

Sjokz smiled and continued, "Last question, you were shocked by your flawless performance in the group stage Nexus, so as a newcomer to the game, is there any experience you can share with those fledgling players?" ”

"I'm not new!"

Sjokz immediately replied: "Nexus, my information is not wrong, you first played an LPL league in WE in the spring of this year, and then in the summer game in EDG......"

Jiang Zhun explained softly to the blonde beauty host from Europe and the United States, "I joined the professional team in 2014, but I didn't have enough strength at that time, and I played as a substitute for two or three years, and this year I have a chance to play in the main game!" ”

"As for the suggestions, I hope that those juniors who really strive for their ideals and championships will not be discouraged, and do not have the idea of giving up because of a temporary failure, the real hero is not to see how many times you have won, but to see how many times you can stand up after failure, difficulties are like mountains ahead, you will be higher than a mountain when you climb a mountain."

"Smack!" "Smack!" "Smack!"

The audience spontaneously burst into warm applause, and some foreign audiences who were mixed in with it also cheered after listening to the translator's retelling.

The LPL audience next to him also took the initiative to explain Jiang Zhun to these European and American buddies all the way out of the abyss from the bench, and the applause suddenly became a little thicker.

Nexus, you!

It is a true hero in our hearts.

"Well said, Brother Zhun!"

"Nexus is a real man!"

"Mom, I declare that this sentence of Brother Zhun is my signature."

[The slow hand is still there, the real man of action has changed, and the Nexus has the same signature.] 】

End of interview.

Although SSG's back-to-back life-and-death game with C9 was somewhat affected by the last game with them because of their mentality, SSG was the better team in terms of strength, and the four-minute battle three-way broke the crystal of C9 and got the last quarterfinals.

The group stage after that had nothing to do with him, and Mouse was very excited to come on as a substitute.

It's a pity that Ah Guang, who got the EDG traditional arts tree, hasn't played much on the road, and the scout who once again selected Lu Xian'er in the middle lane broke the spell of this hero and chiseled through AHQ's defense line with the jungler director.

EDG didn't give it a chance, and although the two clubs had a good relationship privately, and losing this game wouldn't affect their rankings, but if they did, the word esports would be meaningless.

The older generation of e-sports people have worked hard to prove its value and meaning, and it is actually very easy to destroy it.

The group stage is completely over, and the draw ceremony and the promotional video of the quarterfinals need to stay in Guangzhou for one day.

"Let's go, eat, eat!"

"General Sturgeon has already ordered the dish."

By the time everyone walked out of the backstage with their bags on their backs, Jack, who was waiting outside early, was already full of monkey urgency.

"Let's see on the way to the draw, anyway, the two No. 1 seeds won't meet together." Ah Shui said, and the IG people in the car were also smiling brightly.

EDG got the No. 1 seed, and nothing is happier than their IG.

I can't beat them, I really can't beat them, I've been training together for so long, even if it's the stronger Jack Ai, it's still the beginning of June Fourth, not to mention that Konishi is the AD of this World Championship.

The middle and lower fields are okay, and the dozens of training matches between the two sides have made everyone a five-five situation, and Ah Shui can still suppress Zet with his personal strength when he plays, and the problem still appears here on the road.

Duke, who is the champion top laner, has admitted more than once that he has been surpassed by TheShy, but everyone can clearly feel that TheShy's strength has improved, and after playing a game with EDG, Nexus can suppress TheShy in all directions in the second game.

Pure youkai.

That kind of self-reflection and self-evolution ability is simply not human in the eyes of IG people, and it doesn't matter if it's terrifyingly stable, as long as you lose to him once, it's as if all the weaknesses have been seen through.

Of course, in the eyes of coaches like MAFA, the real gap between Jiang Chengzi, a little ginger, and Jiang Zhun's "big ginger" is still in team battle support and overall awareness.

To put it simply, TheShy is too individualistic, while Nexus puts the team on an equal or even higher level with individualism.

On the bus, all the way to the hotel, the team members chatted one by one.

"The four second seeds, as long as they don't encounter RNG, the other three feel like they can still play, and the simplest estimate is TSM and MSF."

"Not necessarily, TSM doesn't dare to say more, but the MSF team we EDG have fought with them, and they are very strong, and they have a lot of things hidden." Jiang Zhun Zhengse said, he has memories of his previous life, he will not underestimate this European rabbit at all, if the quarterfinals are drawn, the other party's endless routines against the incense burner monster should be on guard in advance.

"Ah, fifty percent of the civil war, I really don't want to meet RNG!" King Ning complained.

It's not that I'm afraid of the other party, it's just that the real "Civil War Phantom God BUFF" on the other party makes people panic.

"So let's choose between TSM and SSG?" Jack turned over and came behind Jiang Zhun, "Hehe, Brother Zhun will help us IG again, and we will send you delicious food every day after entering the semi-finals." ”

Although he is not yet old enough to play, Jack really regards IG with an excellent atmosphere as a small family.

"Help?"

"I've done everything that should be said and practiced, and the advice I can give you now is not to train hard, and don't go out to drink during the World Championship." Jiang Zhun pointed out, and someone in the seat in front of him moved his body uncomfortably.

Don't dare to talk.

Let's not talk about Nexus' current status in the hearts of EDG and their boss, just that the physique is not enough for him to fight, and Nexus must beg him not to die with a punch.

Our Su Shen also secretly reminded himself that when he took those second goods out to play in the future, he couldn't coerce Jiang Chengzi into it.

"The draw has begun!"

NOFE's reminder interrupted the chatter of the players, and everyone hurriedly turned on their mobile phones to watch the live broadcast.

In the live broadcast room, there are already many viewers waiting for it.

Many people on the barrage are still discussing the previous game between EDG and Samsung.

[One thing to say, this year's world No. 1 list feels like there is no suspense, compared to Nexus's other two qualified competitors, TheShy and Khan, I feel that the performance in the group stage is a little worse. 】

[That flashed and sent the bucket stunned me, this person is not afraid of carrying the blame!] 】

[Dare to operate, strong strength, fast support, key to play stable, it is indeed the only gear in the world championship so far. 】

[Hey, the quarterfinals of the World Championship, what do you mean by discussing the three top singles? Is it because I'm not qualified enough? 】

[There's nothing to discuss, this year's No. 1 top list in the World Championship must have been born from the Three Musketeers of WE, and the withering was taken down by Brother Zhun, and SKT's Hu Burou and U Emperor were repeatedly rubbed by Brother Han in the LCK. 】

[WE: If it's not over, can't this World Championship end quickly?] 】

[Don't blow it yet, no matter how you say it, some people are not convinced if you haven't really touched it once. 】

[The world's No. 1 top single still has to win the championship, otherwise it will be embarrassing for others to introduce you to the world's No. 1 top list in the future, and it will be embarrassing to be asked what champion and which hero's skin you are. 】

[Hahaha, brothers, look at IGAD's Weibo! ] 】

IGAD, Xihuang's Weibo?

What is there to see.

Just when the players in the live broadcast room were puzzled, a Weibo news from jackeylove in the anti-bar had already built a thousand floors.

A certain water army AD: "In the penultimate game of the group stage, a well-known top list released cruel words, let General Sturgeon order first, the meal is ready, he will come when he goes!" ”

[Chop three stars, wine and still warm? ] What e-sports Guan Yunchang ......]

[Don't say it, Brother Zhun is really a bit of a second master, cutting anyone is a matter of three knives. 】

[+10% funny for saying cruel things before the game, +100% funny for the e-sports version of Wenjiu and Huaxiong, +1000% funny for General Sturgeon to order food]

[Brother Zhun still listens to the persuasion and asks him to play fiercely in the World Championship, this can't be called fierce, it's just a click and a random killing. 】

In the anti-bar, all of them are experience posts about EDG and IG. In short, one word is over, what Nexus must be the strongest top laner in this S competition, TheShy and Khan tied for second, or the LPL duo has already pointed to the finals.

All in all, what stands out is blowing, winning and blowing and losing mad black, LPL's traditional old art.

Of course, this year, due to the relationship between the two teammates who have achieved too good results, RNG, the team that stumbled to the second place in the group, was selectively forgotten by the players.

The discussion came to an abrupt end when the guests in charge of the draw and the host appeared.

"League of Legends summoners, after a long group stage battle, finally, our 2017 World Championship quarterfinals teams have been born, and the next step is the draw ceremony."

After the host Yu Shuang read the opening remarks, he immediately talked about the rules of the lottery for the quarterfinals.

The first of these is the disappearance of the principle of avoiding the same division when grouping in the group stage, which means that there will be a civil war that players commonly refer to.

The second is that teams that have already fought in the same group will not be placed in the same half and will have to meet again unless they both advance to the finals.

On the stage, each of the eight teams discharged their own auxiliary as a representative of the lottery, the sister buckled next to IG's royal blue, and the thin figures of the two people stood next to wolf with a sense of disobedience.

The two had to wait until the draw was over, and they would drive with the team leader to meet them.

As the guest of the lottery invited by their own home stadium, it is WE's night.

Poor Su Wangzai's eyes were resentful, and he was forced to work overtime without saying anything, obviously they should also be one of the members of the World Championships, but now he has come to draw lots for the quarterfinals.

"Wow, hahaha, who designed Su Wangzai's suit for him?"

After the host finished reading the opening remarks, the bus of Jiang Zhun and others just arrived at the hotel, and when they saw the appearance of the night, several people who got off the bus almost stepped on the air.

In this line, the dry cabbage-like figure is the second in the gods.

Spit and complain, everyone's eyes are still staring at the little hands of the night.

"Don't have a civil war, don't have a civil war, don't have a civil war!"

"Give Samsung to Dragon Ball ......"

Midnight shows off the first slip of paper with the team's name drawn in the No. 1 seed pool.

"The first team to enter the top half of the division is Team EDG!"

"Please continue in the night, the second team in the upper half of the district is ......" Yu Shuang's eyes looked over, and his expression suddenly froze, "Team LZ!" ”

"I'll go to Nima, Su Wangzi is so pumping!!"

"Okay, awesome, send the Dragon Balls to our half-district, right?"

On and off the stage, the EDG players all wore pain masks.

As the representative of the team, the corners of her mouth twitched, your sister is a good guy, I call you a good guy, the LCK No. 1 seed is sent directly to our semi-region, I'm really afraid that we will break through the quarterfinals and jump to the finals, right?

It's not that the players are afraid of Dragon Ball, but when you face some strong teams, you need to hand over more tactical reserves.

The later IG naturally stayed in the same division as SKT.

The face is green in the night, what kind of luck is there?

According to the rules, teams that have played in the same group will not stay in the same half, which means that RNG will automatically enter the top half and play either EDG or LZ.

It's a little slower in the barrage, but it's also understood.

[Your sister, WE, didn't let you come to the World Championship, so you played ours? 】

[Ahhh 】

RNG fans are all Spartan.

finally stumbled out of the group, but you got a lottery for the quarterfinals?

The two group stage macho men stayed in the upper half, and RNG cried.

To the first ball in the second seed pool!

When the ribbon inside was unfolded in the night, the expression on his face suddenly became cloudy and clear.

“TSM!!!”

[Good pumping, hahahaha, Su Wangzai finally became a person, EDG beat the top 16 in the quarterfinals. 】

[North American players: Why is your sister in the top eight players suffering for the top sixteen, God has destined that one of our two families must die, right? ] 】

[It was still very uncomfortable, but suddenly I saw tsm and EDG, two former brothers and sisters, draw together, and suddenly I wanted to laugh very much, what's going on? ] 】

The third ball, Xi Ye grinned directly.

SSG!

On stage, RNG Silly Ming was about to shake hands with corejj before going on stage, and Ren Dong hurriedly stopped the two.

[Hey, hey, I'll wait, SSG and EDG are in the same group, and they can't be divided into the same half, which means ......]

"Yes, in the group stage, the team in the same group is the principle of half avoidance, which means that the opponent of SSG is - SKT!!"

Rumble!!!

When the host talked about SKT, the heads of the LCK players who had just been smiling were buzzing.
