Chapter 155: Good Sign?
"SSG has no danger and successfully locked up the first place in the group stage!"
And there weren't too many surprises.
SSG won the group stage.
"SSG is really evolving." Chen Tianxiang looked at the SSG that was getting better and better, although he didn't have a good impression of them, but it was true that this SSG's learning ability was amazing.
When they were in the LCK, they still only needed to lose a bo5 to get to the No. 3 seed in the Worlds.
And now it seems that the strength has been counted as the first team among the remaining eight teams in the World Championship.
Chen Tianxiang's original SSG in the world also went from the first round of the spring playoffs to the finals and SKT played the entire bo5 and finally lost regrettably.
The BO5 is full, which generally shows that there is no huge gap in hard power between the two teams.
In other words, in terms of strength, SSG and the ROX tigger of the past, SKT are a class of teams.
Compared to the so-called evolution of RNG, this is the real evolution.
If you encounter ambition, you really can't be careless.
Soon, after the play-off, the Russian team ANX from the wild card division miraculously advanced to the quarterfinals of the World Championship, creating a wild card miracle.
At this point, the top eight of this year's S competition have all been released.
The draw ceremony was also quickly prepared after a brief post-match interview.
According to the qualifying position, the eight teams will enter two draw pools respectively.
The No. 1 seed will face the No. 2 seed in a different group through a guest draw.
Seed pool No. 1: ROX, SKT, H2K, SSG.
Second seed pool: RNG, EDG, ANX, C9.
"Are you nervous?"
Ming Kai in the audience was communicating with UZI.
"I don't know, anyway, we won't be able to meet in the first round, so let's try to see you later." Uzi laughed.
"That's hard to say, in case you SKT, we ROX, it's a little hard." Ming Kai joked and said the way the LPL was most afraid of the lottery.
"That's a bit too much, if only I could draw H2K."
Uzi fantasized.
If you can draw H2K this year, you and your teammates will jump up from your chairs and clap your hands and laugh wildly.
Although Uzi was cleaned up by Chen Tianxiang a few days ago, he didn't have a temper.
But after thinking about it, if you can't beat LCK in the quarterfinals, can it be that you can't beat Europe's coins?
And Ming Kai sighed.
They were overturned by H2K in the play-offs due to a mistake in the group stage, which resulted in them falling to the No. 2 seed pool.
Because of the principle of semi-avoidance, it is impossible for their opponents in the quarterfinals to have a team like H2K.
In other words, they have to choose one of the three teams in the LCK to play.
Whoever of the three LCK brothers is feeling a bit of a headache for EDG.
This year's LCK is just too strong.
Just when the two of them were thinking about each other, a person waving in the distance interrupted the two.
"Hello!"
Peanut greeted the two in Chinese he had learned from Chen Tianxiang.
The two quickly nodded in response.
Compared with Chen Tianxiang, Peanut's kind smile with squinting eyes and smiling is indeed a lot more kind.
Of course, although his smile is very relatable, no one wants to run into him in the next match.
With the staff's signal, the representatives of the eight teams have already passed their uniforms and stood in the background.
Next, for each team logo drawn from the draw pool, a representative will walk in front of the stage.
"Ah, the first No. 1 seed to be drawn is, ROX." The narrator doll also began to explain tonight's lottery ceremony.
The guests drew the No. 1 seed pool in one go.
From top to bottom.
ROX,SSG,H2K,SKT
H2K and SKT are a half-zone, while SSG and ROX are a half-zone.
The face of the representative Ambition darkened.
That is, if both SSG and ROX manage to survive the first round of the playoffs.
Those two teams are bound to meet in the final four.
Thinking of the young man who stepped on his head countless times, Ambition was uncomfortably a little depressed.
"Okay, now comes the top priority." The doll said. "Look at the first round of this sign, it's really not bad, so far, it should be a good sign."
"Well, because H2K and ROX are in two different halves, because of the half-zone avoidance principle, RNG and ROX in the same group as them are also in two different halves, so before the finals, there is no possibility of civil war in the LPL."
Miller explained to the audience why it was a good sign.
Although he felt in his heart that the two teams in the LPL were still looking forward to the finals and not fighting in the civil war, it was a bit too long-term.
"The first No. 2 seed to come out!"
“Oh,EDG!” Miller, who is a fan of iron-blooded EDG, takes a deep breath.
The scariest episode for EDG fans is about to take place.
And at this moment, Uzi patted Ming Kai on the back, smiled, and said with a little schadenfreude, "Help me get revenge." ”
Uzi is in a good mood at the moment, because of the half-zone avoidance principle, they will have a 1 in 2 chance of encountering the H2K they want to meet.
"Difficult"
Ming Kai met the opponent he didn't want to meet.
This moment is accompanied by a hint from the staff.
With a sad face, he walked in front of Peanut in front of the spotlight.
The director also knew how to cut the camera to the lounge.
Inside the EDG lounge, the silence was terrible.
The crowd froze in place as if petrified.
They will meet the same IDs in the quarterfinals who have beaten them to the point where they need psychological counseling.
ROX, ON THE OTHER HAND, CLAPPED HIS HANDS WITH A RELAXED FACE.
"Wanghu has fulfilled his dream!" Smeb congratulated Peanut on achieving her dream of meeting her idol in the quarterfinals.
And Chen Tianxiang also expressed his gratification, it seems that although history has changed, there are still seven meanings in the dark.
Ming Kai, it seems that these are all predestined!
Ming Kai stood beside Peanut with a heavy face, symbolizing that they were about to start a life-and-death battle in the knockout stage.
Peanut watched his idol walk towards him, and immediately waved his hand excitedly, happy and happy.
And Ming Kai tried hard to maintain a stiff smile, but there was no brilliance in the eyes of the dead fish.
It vividly shows what is called the joys and sorrows between people, and it is not connected.
However, the smile on Uzi's face quickly disappeared.
"Ahh It's not RNG! ”
H2K's counterpoint is not RNG, but C9.
What is about to be staged is the war between Europe and the United States.
And this means that RNG will meet SKT in the quarterfinals.
"This lottery can only say that I hope the two teams will come on, and the intensity is indeed a bit too high." Miller didn't expect that the first round was still a good sign, and the second round would be like this.
"Yes, both teams have met super strong opponents, I hope you prepare well, you have to think so, if RNG successfully defeats Sri SKT, then they will not meet LCK teams again in the semifinals."
The doll's statement made everyone shout, this can not be a loss! It's you.
But the doll herself also somewhat understands that this bit of bitterness and self-deception means.
The two of them didn't have to think about it to know what words were the most in the barrage in the live broadcast room at the moment.
[Send].
With this sign, don't discuss whether there will be a civil war after that.
These two teams in the LPL met the two teams that are recognized as the strongest in the entire S6.
For the LPL, as long as one team can reach the final four, it will be considered a success.
Ming Kai standing beside Peaunt.
Uzi who is walking towards Faker's side.
Their future does not seem to be very good and bright.
uzi wants to cry without tears, ROX in the group stage, SKT in the knockout round, the two favorites take turns to serve themselves, and create evil!
I wouldn't have bragged about it before I knew it.
Soon, the first game of the knockout round will be kicked off by the hottest teams.
ROX vsEDG!
