Chapter 337: The Last Battle of the Swiss Round! Team DWG! Isn't this going to be IG again in the finals?
On the minimap, when everyone in the G2 team dealt with the three-way line and then returned directly to the spot to make up for it, the SKT team immediately faintly guessed the G2 team's thoughts.
But the problem is that for the SKT team, if they play a 5v5 team battle head-on, then they are almost bound to lose, so if they want to win the game, the only hope that the SKT team can hope for is Khan Kenji's single belt.
But Khan also knows in his heart that once he is caught again with a single belt, or if he is forced to open by the G2 team in a frontal 4v4, then the SKT team will still lose the game directly.
After all, at this moment, there is only less than a minute left before the second big dragon of this game is refreshed.
So after careful consideration by everyone in the SKT team, they decided to continue to take advantage of Khan's potential danger to pull.
As long as they can successfully trick one or two people from the G2 team to the sideline, then the front of the SKT team can form a temporary situation of more and less fighting!
And this is the only way that Team SKT can win this game in the end!
So, after everyone in the G2 team returned, the SKT team instead started to push in a group without defending the counterattack, and at the same time let Khan Kenji walk into the bottom half of the G2 team alone, pretending to continue to lead the line on the lower road.
But in fact, he was just squatting in the blue buff grass, after all, Khan Kenji knew very well that once he took the lead in showing his head in the lower lane, then his frontal teammates would directly suffer a catastrophe!
"It seems that Jian Ji is going to lead the line on the lower road, should we go and take a look?"
And when the four men in front of the SKT team pushed the line across the river, and the bottom lane had slowly arrived at the position of the second tower of the G2 team, Captain BB immediately frowned.
Although Dark just said that as long as Khan Kenji dares to show his head in the bottom lane, then they can end the game in one wave, but if the speed of their head-on win is slower by a few seconds, this Khan Kenji can really wear through the base crystal in a wave in the bottom lane!
"Go, Jian Ji is not online yet, isn't she just trying to trick us into the past?"
"But it's not you who goes, Caps goes."
Looking at the SKT four who were slowly advancing in the middle lane, and the Khan Kenji who disappeared on the minimap, the Dark Blind Monk chuckled, and the tactics of the SKT team were still too naïve in front of their G2 team.
"Understood."
After Caps Enchantress received the order, she immediately stepped on the W skill from the middle lane and leaned towards the lower lane.
And just as he walked to the blue BUFF grass, the Khan Sword Queen, who had disappeared for half a minute, seemed to have finally waited for an opportunity to grab the order, and directly slashed at the Caps Demon Queen with the Q skill to break through the air!
Obviously, in Khan's opinion, as long as he can cause the G2 team to attrition in advance, then the SKT team's next advancement will definitely be a big victory!
"Do it!"
Play the same old trick!
Fish Missile!
This scene made the Dark blind monk overjoyed, and immediately shouted loudly.
Because with Khan's fluctuating move, the front four of the SKT team also had a difference of opinion at this moment!
While Faker Zoe and Teddy are ready to rush to the jungle to catch Caps, who has lost her movement skills, Clid Spider and Effort Tam are ready to push the second tower in the middle lane with the lane!
And it was such a fleeting lineup that was scattered, and it was caught by Hi Lisan cat!
When the Fish Missile slowly flew out and smashed into the Clid Spider who was hurriedly retreating, his HP not only dropped by nearly one-third in an instant, but was also caused to slow down considerably.
"Up!"
If Hi Lisan Cat's Q misses, then the two sides may have to pull and pull again, but when it hits, it means that the SKT team has finally ushered in their own defeat!
Fatal Blow!
The end of the Grimoire!
Touch the golden bell jar!
It's a familiar way to start a group again, when Perkz Galen rushed towards Clid Spider and Effort Tam with the big cat, Dark Blind Monk also immediately touched W to close the distance, and at the same time, a Q skill Sky Sonic kicked out directly.
Feast!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Effort Tamm immediately hurriedly ate the Clid spider into his stomach, and then spit it out in the direction of the lower river behind him.
Flash! One......
The moment the Clid Spider landed, the Dark Blind Monk, who had already kicked Effort, immediately pressed the flash, and was about to kick the Clid Spider back.
But none of this library came out, because the next moment, the Clid spider pressed out his golden body, and then flew into the air with the E skill Pansi.
Dance to the end!
Hypnotic bubbles!
It was with these few seconds of delay that the three members of the SKT team in the wild area finally rushed to the river battlefield from the flank, and the two AP heroes threw out their control skills, trying to cover the nosuke teammates back to their side first.
Trial!
It's just that when Perkz Galen opened his E skill and entered the SKT team, the SKT team really couldn't do anything about him for a while!
Sky Sonic Wave!
Echo Strike!
Raptors wag their tails!
And just when everyone's attention in the SKT team was attracted by Perkz Galen, the Dark Blind Monk, who was stunned by Teddy's piano girl trick but had resumed his actions, finally found a chance to make a move.
So when Teddy retreated but was chased by the Dark Blind Monk, the next moment, he took off on the spot and crashed directly into his teammates.
Knock knock knock!
With one foot, except for Faker Zoe, who just happened to hand over the ultimate move, the four members of the SKT team were kicked away by this kick at the same time!
Demacia Justice!
Malicious Magic Seal!
Killed Ddy!
And when the G2 double-Cs poured their output directly on Teddy's piano girl, the game time was 30 minutes and 18 seconds, and the G2 team managed to win the first head of this wave of team fights.
Cannon!
At the same time, when Captain BB's ultimate and Dark Blind Monk's ultimate were pressed together, a cannonball smashed into the bloody Clid spider with precision, and his life was instantly wiped out.
G2. BrokenBlade kills d!
Between breaths, the SKT team has been painstakingly planning a team battle for a long time, and it is unexpectedly defeated in an instant.
This made everyone in the SKT team desperate, and at the same time, they naturally knew that this wave of team battles could not continue, so they could only choose to flee for their lives.
Abyssal Diving!
Effort, Tam directly opened the ultimate and escaped thousands of miles away with Faker Zoe, but Khan Kenji was not so lucky.
Under the siege and interception of the five members of the G2 team, he successfully handed over the golden body waiting for death, and then died on the spot!
Z killed!
Although this wave of team battles was only zero-for-three, and it didn't kill the SKT team, it didn't matter to the G2 team.
Because when they immediately turned around and rushed to the big dragon pit, and rushed out the newly born second Baron Nash at the point in time, all the suspense of this game officially disappeared!
As the G2 team rushed to the high ground of the SKT team, and after the team of the SKT team was wiped out in a two-for-five battle, the remaining three easily knocked out the two incisor towers and the final base crystal!
VICTORY!
So, when the word "victory" appears again in the center of the big screen on the scene, let's congratulate the G2 team!
"Let's congratulate the G2 team!"
"Although this game took a little longer than the previous matches, the G2 team still managed to defeat the SKT team and win the final victory of BO1!"
"At the same time, let us also congratulate the G2 team for successfully advancing to the 2-0 group of the third round of the Swiss round, as long as they win the last BO3 match, they can successfully advance to the quarterfinals of this S9 World Championship!"
At the end of the game, on the LPL official commentary seat, Wang Duoduo congratulated the G2 team with a smile on his face.
Although he still doesn't know who the next opponent of the G2 team will be, in his opinion, it is unlikely that it will stop the G2 team from winning all three matches and advancing to the quarterfinals!
"Congratulations to the G2 team, their overall strength is really too strong."
"However, the SKT team actually has a good chance in this game, because in the middle of the game, Khan's single belt did pose a certain threat to the G2 team."
"But the G2 team's ability to grasp the edge is really a bit strong, or it can be said that Khan is a bit careless, which caused him to die twice on the wing, and the situation of the SKT team took a sharp turn for the worse, and basically lost the possibility of winning with a single belt."
"And when the SKT team obviously can't beat the head-to-head team battle, the G2 team's final victory has become a predictable thing!"
Hitomi Xi also smiled and said that although the early stage of this game was slow and slightly boring, from 20 minutes to the end of the game, the competition between the two teams at the operation and game level was exciting, and it was definitely the most exciting game among the 16 games in the two rounds of Switzerland!
"That's right, so let's congratulate the G2 team again on their victory."
"Please take a break and after the post-match interviews with the G2 players, we will be bringing you the draw for the third round of the Swiss round."
"We'll be back right after the ad!"
As Wang Duoduo's words fell, he and Tongxi's commentary task came to an end.
Meanwhile, the G2 team members in the podpool had a brief celebration before it was time for their favorite post-race handshake!
"Effort, it's a good game, but it's a pity that our big sword is a little more fierce."
Unlike the order of the MSI post-match handshake, the first to shake hands with Dark this time was Team SKT's new support Effort.
"Teddy, why is your presence still so low? Give me some strength, if you continue to fight like this, I'm afraid the SKT team won't want you next year. ”
The next person to shake hands was Dark's unimpressed bottom laner Teddy, so he skipped it and then couldn't wait to look at the third Faker.
"Brother Li, I thought we would have to wait until the finals to see each other again, but I didn't expect to meet so soon."
"But it doesn't matter, as long as our two teams are not divided into one and a half regions during the quarterfinals, then there is still a chance to meet in the finals, come on!"
Dark smiled at Faker, who nodded, indicating that the SKT team would definitely be able to.
"Clid, I didn't say you, you really don't know who the thighs are in the SKT team? If you are dedicated to learning from Blank back then to help Brother Li, you may really have a chance to win this game! ”
"How Khan, not convinced? Help you, if you don't C, if you don't help, you will blow up, isn't it a true portrayal of your game? Besides, if it weren't for the early Clid to help you get the advantage, I'm afraid you wouldn't even be able to bring up a single belt in this game! ”
"Go back and practice hard, and hopefully you two won't let us down again when we get to the finals."
As he shook hands with Clid and Khan, Dark said with a lot of regret for Faker.
After all, if he and Faker swapped identities, and he encountered such a group of unreliable teammates, how uncomfortable and uncomfortable that feeling would be!
After shaking hands with the SKT players, Dark and his G2 teammates walked to center stage again and bowed together to the crowd's chanting of "G2".
As for the follow-up post-game interview, this time Dark was invited to the side of the LCS host.
When asked which team G2 would most like to play against in the next BO3 matchup, Dark also said the name of the TL team with a lot of face.
The reason is very simple, that is, this year's TL team is indeed the strongest year compared to previous years, so Dark is very eager to play against TL teams on the World stage to try out the strength of the "most promising TL team".
So, just after the simple post-match interview session, the live broadcast content of the second round of the Swiss round finally came to the moment that all viewers around the world were most looking forward to tonight.
That's the draw for the third round of the Swiss round!
Before the lottery ceremony officially began, the on-site host briefly read out the lottery process and rules as usual.
First of all, the third round of the draw ceremony will be divided into three stages, namely the 2-0 group draw, the 1-1 group draw, and the 0-2 group draw.
Among them, there are four teams in the 2-0 group, which are G2, IG, TL and DWG.
There are also four teams in the 0-2 category, namely TES, RGE, AHQ and JT.
There are eight teams in Group 1-1, which are the remaining eight teams in the top 16.
Secondly, because the eight teams in the 2-0 and 0-2 groups will face the possibility of "three wins to advance" and "three losses to go out", the eight teams will no longer compete in BO1 in the third round of the Swiss round, but will play in BO3 to minimize the impact of the "luck" factor.
Third, according to the schedule, tomorrow, October 14, will be the first to start the promotion battle of the 2-0 group, and on October 15, 8 BO1 matches of the 1-1 group will be played, and on October 16, the life and death battle of the 0-2 group will be started.
Therefore, the next draw order will also be carried out according to the schedule, and the first draw will be the four 2-0 teams.
At the same time as the host read out the rules, the staff on the scene had also completed the preparation of the three lottery pools.
So the next moment, at the invitation of the host, the lottery guest once again stretched his hand enough to decide the fate of each team into the four small balls of the 2-0 group.
Team IG!
Although the first ball is drawn the same for everyone, when the ball representing the IG team was drawn, all LPL fans instantly became nervous.
Because whether the IG team can represent the LPL region and advance to the quarterfinals of the S9 World Championship first depends on who their next opponent is.
If it's a G2 team......
That's going to be so uncomfortable!
Of course, for the LCS and LCK audiences, the next draw is also crucial, after all, this pool is only four teams, and once the first matchup is finalized, then the second matchup will naturally take shape.
So, in the eyes of all the spectators in the four major regions who were extremely nervous and expectant, the lottery guests finally drew the second ball, and then slowly unfolded the note in it......
TL Clan!
When the matchup between the IG team and the TL team was officially paired, all LPL fans burst into the most ecstatic cheers in an instant.
Because they never expected that the IG team would have such good luck that they could draw the weakest TL team among the three teams!
And in their opinion, this is almost equivalent to escorting the IG team to the quarterfinals, after all, the TL team is the weakest team in North America!
Especially the big brother Doublelift, the bottom laner in the TL team, has basically been able to enter the World Championship every year since he became a League of Legends professional player, but he will be eliminated directly in the group stage every year.
There is a saying that no one will remember the top 16 unless he is the top 16 every year!
So in the eyes of LPL fans, although they don't know whether the big brother under the Swiss round system will be able to break the metaphysics and advance to the quarterfinals this year, at least in tomorrow's BO3, the IG team will definitely not lose to the TL team!
When the match between IG and TL was finalized, the next two draws of the draw guest were meaningless, but he still symbolically completed the presentation to the audience and finalized the matchup between G2 and DWG.
"I didn't expect to play the DWG team so soon, I thought we would have to meet them in the quarterfinals at the earliest."
"This DWG team is a little dark horse in this year's Worlds, I remember telling you before."
"But it's not a big problem, I've already studied them, and I'll tell you how to play the DWG team when I get back later."
Team IG vs. Team TL.
Team G2 vs. Team DWG.
When the information of the two BO3 matches tomorrow appeared on the big screen of the scene, in the lounge of the G2 team in the background, the G2 coach immediately said eagerly, after all, he, like the players of the G2 team, wants to play against several different teams!
But while the G2 coach and the rest of his teammates were gearing up, Dark wasn't so happy.
Because in his opinion, with the overall level of the TL team, the possibility of directly defeating the IG team and advancing to the quarterfinals is not too high.
Once Team IG beats Team TL and advances to the quarterfinals with a 3-0 record.
According to the rules of this year's Swiss round, the G2 team and the IG team, both 3-0, will be automatically divided into two halves in the quarterfinals.
In other words, if Team IG can have another explosion of luck in the knockout stage, there is a real chance that they will meet G2 again in the Grand Finals this year!
Because you must know that the opponent of the 3-0 team in the eight-in-four stage is and can only be lucky to advance to the quarterfinals with a 3-2 record in the Swiss round, one of the three weakest teams in the quarterfinals! (End of chapter)
