Chapter 818 A life and death battle, no one is optimistic about it
In the second round of the group stage, each team showed their special skills.
After all, after this round, the two eliminated teams have to pack their bags and go home to end their journey to the global finals.
A year's hard work will come to an end.
After the j-team team won 100 Thieves, the second game started in full swing.
This is also the cruelty of the second round of the group stage.
Four teams are fighting continuously, and there is no extra time to adjust their state and mentality.
This is a great test of a team's overall strength, ability to quickly adjust, and ability to respond to emergencies on the field.
In the second game, the old rivals Team Gen and Team Rng met again.
This time, the Gen team, which has almost reached the edge of the cliff, showed their super strength as the No. 1 seed in LCK.
On the road, Dolan endured the pressure of breathing.
The jungler Peanut suppressed Serena Williams' rhythm.
Mid laner Chaowei tied up Xiaohu with his fast lane push, preventing him from roaming up and down the lane.
On the lower road, Chi Di and Lian Zi got the first blood tower from Gala and Xiao Ming.
Today's gen team showed a very good competitive state as soon as they came up.
After a fierce battle with rng for 35 minutes, he won the final victory and retained hope for his qualification.
The gen team's rejuvenation has made the qualifying situation in Group D even more confusing.
In the third game, the j-team team faced the challenge of the rng team, which had just lost a game.
As a veteran and strong team, rng's ability to make timely adjustments is excellent.
They fought with all their strength against the j-team until 32 minutes, and won the game. They won their fourth victory in the group stage, and their qualifying situation was the most optimistic.
In the fourth game, Team Gen continued to make great progress.
It only took them less than 20 minutes to push through the main base of Group D's Experience Baby 100 Thieves with great momentum.
This victory also brought the gen team's record to three wins and two losses.
They tied with j-team!
In the fifth game, the 100 thieves who had already been eliminated became water ghosts.
With no pressure at all, the five professional players each selected their own unique heroes.
They dared to fight hard in the game and unexpectedly defeated the rng team.
Let’s end this trip to the global finals with one win and five losses.
At the same time, the record of the rng team was reduced to four wins and two losses.
But it doesn’t matter, because according to the points rules, the rng team has already determined to qualify from the group and won a spot in the top eight of the global finals.
As soon as the game ended, netizens and viewers at the scene and on the Internet around the world were not calm anymore.
At the scene, many local North American fans cursed 100 Thieves.
"Fake, what the hell are you doing so early?"
"Shet, isn't this possible?"
"That's right, do you have to wait until the last game to play the game?"
"I'm so angry!"
"With one win and five losses, we are at the bottom of the group, not even as good as the teams in the PCS division. Why does our LCS division still need to exist?"
"There is a reason for being looked down upon, haha."
"Go home in the group stage. This is the old tradition of our LCS team, Fak!"
The audience at the LCS competition area complained about 100 Thieves one after another and were furious.
But it's too late to say anything.
100 Thieves has been eliminated.
At the same time, the next game has become the most watched game by e-sports audiences around the world.
Team gen plays against team j-team again!
Both teams have a record of three wins and two losses at this time.
In e-sports, there is no such thing as a draw.
Whoever wins will qualify!
As soon as this life-and-death battle situation emerged, the blood in both the audience and the commentators began to boil.
"Fuck! It's a life and death battle!"
"Whoever wins will qualify, whoever loses will get out!"
"This game is great."
"Exciting."
"Gen's record is obviously in great shape today. He needs to be even better. I'm optimistic that gen will win."
"I think so too. After all, we are the No. 1 seed in LCK. Wouldn't it be too embarrassing if we were eliminated in the group stage?"
"Is it embarrassing? TES, our second seed in the LPL division, is already on his way back from swimming."
"Pfft...really swam back?"
"It can't be compared. It's not like Tess gets sick once or twice. Although it's hard to accept Annan's gam fermented bean curd, this is Brother Taobo. He never disappoints people."
"Isn't this sentence used to describe edg?"
"I won the championship last year. I must take off my hat. Now it's good. Brother Taobo has inherited it."
"J-Team was able to beat Gen in the first round because it relied on taking the wrong side. Now in the second round, Gen is ready. I guess J-Team will be eliminated."
"I think so too. It's true to win by surprise, but it can only be used once. I don't believe that their bottom lane player Nine would dare to go to the middle lane today."
"Hey, after all, we are a team in the PCS division. There are too many strong teams that are inferior to LCK and LPL in terms of background."
The online audience started a heated discussion on the barrage.
However, the vast majority of viewers believe that gen will win the j-team in today's game and advance to the next round.
After all, the performance of the lck team in the global finals is obvious to all.
They may fail in one or two games in the group stage, but they will definitely not fail to qualify.
After so many years of hosting global finals, lck has won more championships, runner-ups, and semi-finals in one region than all other regions combined.
18 years ago, they were the undisputed overlord of this game.
Even with the rise of the Dragon Kingdom LPL division in the past few years, the LCK team still retains very strong competitiveness.
This is an ironclad fact and cannot be changed.
Audiences both offline and online are optimistic that the gen team can complete their revenge in this game, and commentators from various countries also have similar ideas.
Even the two commentators in the PCS division feel that the j-team’s journey to this year’s global finals is probably going to end here.
"The gen team's performance today is really great."
The commentator mod shook his head at the commentator desk.
"This is the strength that LCK's No. 1 seed should have."
"But if this happens, the J-team, the No. 1 seed in our division, will suffer a serious blow."
"Although I don't want to admit it, it is too difficult for our j-team to qualify for the group stage."
The commentator mountain also had a sad look on his face.
"J-Team will definitely not be able to choose the lineup against Team Gen in the first round today."
"I hope j-team can still come up with a secret weapon."
The own commentators in the PCS region are not optimistic about it, let alone the commentators in other regions and other countries.
On the commentary stage of Dragon Kingdom LPL, the three commentators today are the combination of Ze Yuan, Miller, and Hitomi Xi.
Seeing Team Gen's outstanding performance today, Zeyuan almost burst out laughing.
"Team Gen is worthy of being the No. 1 seed in LCK. Such an excellent ability to adjust is a sign that a strong team can go further."
"I wonder what you two think of the upcoming life-and-death battle?"
This time, he did not open the champagne before the game, but left the pre-game analysis to Miller and Hitomi.
