It was still local noon when Gu Xing got up.

Although East Asia has been a key viewing area for the global finals in recent years, Riot Games obviously has no plans to give special treatment.

The game starts at 4 p.m., and it will still be early morning in China and South Korea on the other side of the ocean.

This also has advantages.

Professional players participating in competitions do not need to adjust their biological clocks. Everyone is accustomed to playing games from the afternoon to the evening. Deliberate modifications will affect the state.

"Lao Gu..." Yu Wenbo huddled in the bed and squinted his eyes, trying to stay in bed in a long tone.

"Get up quickly, you are a substitute and you have to be reported backstage." Gu Xing was in high spirits and was still reading the domestic forums while brushing his teeth.

The bar staff of the Anti-Stress Bar has cleaned up the water experience posts, and now the bar is full of content related to event discussions.

[The author predicts the qualifying spots for the four groups. I feel that the remaining non-Korean teams in the AB group will be more difficult to guess... Although I am an LPL audience, to be honest, it is really difficult to play. G2 and CLG are not bad]

[If we only compare our strength on paper, there is no doubt that Group A has the strongest overall strength, but Group D is not bad either. In an interview that day, Kkoma said that both EDG and TSM had strong training match results! 】

[Can training matches be taken seriously? I'm a fool, brother. TSM training matches are particularly strong. From the S5 mid-season to today, let's borrow Imp's US server ID, North America? It's just a dog basket]

[After watching last year’s World Championship, I discovered that as long as you don’t have any hope for the LPL, it can’t hurt you. The worst is the top 16. It’s not like I haven’t encountered it before. I’m looking down on the Buddhist system to watch the game.]

[Guess what good things LPL can do in this year’s World Championship? The effect of last year’s program was great.

IG surrendered on National Day, with a child's face touching the grass, and a posture that showed Huni's worth;

LGD reversed Q, and was defeated by four big clockworks. Imp was knocked to death by Iron Man. Four APs on the opposite side used the blue shield Taobao right, and Fire Man made iron;

EDG Jin Chuan Deng, Fat General was controlled to death by Faker Ryze, San Shao's diary nimensidignle, the first BO5 team in history to be beaten four to zero...

I think in this World Championship, the lovely LPL team will also give us classic operations that can cause cerebral hemorrhage just by looking at them!]

Gu Xing saw the last comment. Every time the bar friends listed a famous scene, the corresponding picture appeared in their mind.

He froze instantly and almost swallowed the toothpaste foam in his mouth.

The toothpaste I used contained a lot of mint, and Gu Xing's throat was filled with a strong mint flavor.

From another perspective, it also has the function of refreshing the mind.

But he was sober now and didn't need to refresh himself. Instead, he felt a little uncomfortable from choking, so he quickly went to the bedside table and drank the water in the glass in one gulp.

"Ahem..." Gu Xing complained in a low voice, "This toothpaste is not good!"

"What's wrong?" Yu Wenbo was confused and didn't want to get up yet.

When Gu Xing saw that it was almost time to gather, he immediately took off the quilt from him.

The two put on their team uniforms, carried their bags, and quickly headed to the hotel lobby.

When the elevator door opened, Gu Xing saw a head of gray hair.

"Sale!" Peanut, wearing a black coat with ROX printed on it, with fair skin and a thin figure, greeted him cheerfully in broken Chinese.

When Jack heard this title, the corners of his mouth suddenly raised crazily, as if he was acting like a slit girl in public.

"Good afternoon...little peanut, you can't call me that," Gu Xing stepped into the elevator and deliberately refuted with a straight face, "I'm older than you. According to Korean standards, you should call me brother!"

Peanut has a soft character and didn't even put up any resistance, so he changed his name obediently, "Brother Xing, are you confident in the competition today?"

"Of course there is," Gu Xing said with confidence, "G2 must be arranged!"

Not to mention that G2 was on Twitter for several days, which completely inspired his desire to win.

Even if it was to qualify for the group stage, Gu Xing had a reason to win.

"The game we played behind VG was just unsatisfying. Anyway, everyone in the group won." Little Peanut didn't care.

ROX has already started studying its opponents for the knockout rounds.

There is no doubt that they can qualify based on their hard power alone.

The Tigers come to the global finals with the goal of winning the final Summoner's Trophy!

Of course, it would be even better if they could overthrow SKT during the promotion process.

Jack was very interested in little Peanut's hair, "What's the matter with this gray color?"

When the gray-haired Peanut first arrived in San Francisco, major e-sports media around the world were competing to report on his new hair color, which indeed attracted many netizens.

Yu Wenbo was also quite moved.

Peanut gets angry when he talks about it, "It's very difficult to take care of. The color will fade in a short time. If you don't want it to become ugly, you have to repaint it every once in a while."

If he had known it would be such a hassle, he would definitely not have dyed his hair gray.

When Yu Wenbo heard how complicated it was, he immediately gave up the idea.

For a top lazy dog ​​like him, spending too much time on hair care is obviously not worth it.

As the elevator went down, Little Peanut found another topic, "Have you played training games with EDG and TSM?"

"No," Gu Xing thought for a moment, "I won't make an appointment with EDG until I come back tonight."

As a rule, teams in the same group will definitely not play training matches.

If VG wants to find a team to fight with, they can only try to find equally matched opponents from the other three groups.

EDG in Group D is a brother team from the same division, and TSM is the No. 1 seed in North America, so it is naturally within the scope of VG's training match.

It’s just that there are too many teams recently and it really can’t be arranged.

Today and tomorrow, it’s EDG and TSM’s turn.

"Then you have to be careful," Little Peanut muttered, "They are all very fierce."

"ROX is basically 50-50 against these two teams, just taking a slight advantage."

Gu Xing raised his eyebrows in surprise.

When Yu Wenbo heard this, he took a deep breath and contributed to global warming.

"Really?" Jack couldn't believe it.

"Why are you lying to me?" Little Peanut continued, "The same goes for SKT. Otherwise, why did Kkoma say in the interview that the results of the two teams in Group D might be very good?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The interview with SKT head coach Kkoma was wildly reprinted by domestic media.

The general meaning is that I don't want to meet EDG in the knockout round, because their performance in the training match was too good.

Gu Xing has seen this article.

He thought that SKT just won too many games against other teams and did not gain enough advantages against EDG.

Maybe it's because of the polite words and deliberate flattery.

Whose imagination is actually true?

I can give it a try with SKT...

Gu Xing suddenly felt bad when he thought of this.

VG previously played a training match with SKT, and having a winning rate of 40% was considered a great success!

Are EDG and TSM so strong?

The audience was deceived by the results of various training matches that were revealed in the past two years, and now they are dismissive of the appointment situation.

But in the eyes of any professional player and team, training matches are the most important indicator of strength.

the reason is simple.

Before a player plays a main game, he may have to play ten training games!

Where the events are ranked, they definitely cannot be ignored.

Gu Xing's face was solemn.

This serious expression remained until he met up with other teammates.

"What's going on?" Gu Shengbin punched him on the shoulder.

Gu Xing told other members of the training department what Xiaohuahua revealed about the training match.

"Good boy..." boss Ding Jun praised with surprise, "If you can match the LCK's first and second seeds 50-50, EDG will go to heaven?"

He just rushed to San Francisco yesterday after handling the club's trivial matters. He didn't bother to adjust to the time difference and insisted on watching the team's game.

Ding Jun’s League of Legends level is average, but he also knows the LCK’s dominance in this event.

Hongmi frowned and wanted to get more confirmation from the old senior Edgar.

He frowned as he hung up the phone, "It's true, Samsung is not very optimistic about the training results of EDG and TSM, and Brother Yufan is also worried."

"Don't take it lightly, brothers," Brother Long was very cautious, "Maybe these two teams have found the answer to the version!"

Otherwise, there is really no way to explain why the two teams in Group D suddenly exploded in popularity in recent training matches.

"What are you afraid of?" Gu Shengbin joked, "We have three top 20 players in charge, so we won't be afraid if we encounter them!"

Two days ago, the official announcement of the selection results of the 20 strongest professional players in this global finals.

This is also a routine program before the World Games every year.
