Chapter 302 Xi mentions the strongest opponent in the quarter-finals
Since edg did not enter the global finals this year, the factory director also took an early vacation and returned to his hometown.
But it just so happens that the factory director’s hometown is in Jiangcheng, which is where the group stage of this global finals is held.
Riot also specially invited this veteran with lpl number 001 to be the draw guest for the quarterfinals showdown.
The factory director came up to the stage, wearing a suit and looking pretty good.
The audience in the audience also booed one after another, and many people even shouted "Qi-chan".
The event live broadcast room was also instantly flooded with "7777" barrages.
Qi Jiang’s cards must be given enough.
After some nonsense from the Riot host, the draw for the top eight began.
The first divisions to be drawn out were the four top-ranked divisions.
skt and rng fell in the upper half, and we and Longzhu fell in the lower half.
The next step is to draw the second place in four groups, as long as the ones who qualify in the same group are not in the same half zone.
SKT's opponent in the quarterfinals is Europe's second seed, MSF, known as the Rabbit Team.
RNG's quarterfinal opponent is Europe's third seed FNC.
Our opponent in the quarterfinals is LCK third seed SSG.
At this point, the lpl audience breathed a sigh of relief.
There is no civil war, and the opponents of the two lpl teams rng and we are pretty good.
Needless to say, fnc qualified through play-offs at 2-4, and is recognized as the weakest quarterfinals in this global finals.
LPL viewers basically feel that RNG's semi-finals are already stable.
Although our opponent is the Hanguo team, Samsung was double-killed by rng in the group stage. At this time, no one paid enough attention to Samsung, and everyone felt that we had a good chance of defeating Samsung and advancing to the semi-finals.
So far, lpl's signing is pretty good.
In the end, the opponent who still has Dragon Ball has not drawn it.
At this time, there is still the last second place in the group that has not been matched with an opponent. The second place in this group is...
omg.
After the first three teams were drawn, the last remaining omg was automatically matched to Dragon Ball.
In other words, OMG's opponent in the quarterfinals is the lck's No. 1 seed, which has won all the group matches and is currently the number one favorite to win the championship - Longzhu Team.
As OMG settled in the bottom half and faced Longzhu, on the barrage in the live broadcast room, some viewers who just watched the game and did not go to Tieba and other smoky places to participate in the discussion of the game lamented that OMG had a bad luck.
Others posted sarcastic comments such as "666", "You deserve it", "You deserve it", etc.
In Tieba, Weibo and other places, there are also people who ridicule omg and throw themselves into the ditch out of wishful thinking.
Even if they don’t think that OMG lost to ahq on purpose in the last game, but just simply wasting their money, after the quarter-final draw ended and OMG drew Longzhu as their opponent in the quarter-finals, there will still be some people who will ridicule the previous sentence: "
It is your own fault and you will not live!"
After all, the group of people who mocked OMG at this time had already acquiesced that OMG could not beat Longzhu and would stop in the top eight, so they mocked without restraint.
If OMG really defeats Longzhu in an upset and advances to the semi-finals, I am afraid that this group of people will be indispensable among those who follow the trend and praise OMG.
He really knows how to sit on the fence!
After the draw of the quarter-finals, various comments on the Internet also showed that the so-called "unanimous opening of the World Championship" is just an empty slogan.
This year's World Championship is the most united within the lpl, and that's just compared to the past.
Everyone has a position. How can we unite when our demands are not completely consistent?
Lu Chen didn't care about the quarrels on the Internet.
At this time, the entire omg team had already boarded the bus back to the hotel. Lu Chen sat alone in the last row as usual, closing his eyes and relaxing.
In Lu Chen's view, if your ultimate goal is to win the championship, then whoever is drawn in the quarterfinals is actually the same.
In the League of Legends Global Finals, you can rely on luck to reach the top eight, semi-finals, and even the finals, but if you want to win the championship, you must rely on real strength.
In a single-elimination format, the champion is the strongest, but the runner-up may not be the second strongest.
There is a stronger team than the runner-up, and they may meet the championship earlier.
In Lu Chen's view, runner-up is not something worth boasting about. It can even be said that the runner-up who falls on the final road is the biggest loser.
As for whether the top four are successful, it is even more nonsense.
If a team's goal from the beginning is the top eight or the top four, then it can only reach the top eight or the top four at most.
In e-sports, the pursuit is to win the championship.
Under the championship, there is nothing to compare with, they are all losers.
In this case, as the current favorite to win the championship, Longzhu Team has to fight early and late.
Moreover, judging from the performance in the second round of the group stage, Longzhu is not the best one.
Take Samsung as an example. Although they lost to rng again in the second round, it was really too much for Chiku to face Uzi.
Moreover, bo1 is too random and is completely different from bo5.
The knockout bo5 is the place to show a team’s hard strength.
After playing a few training games and the second round of the group stage, Lu Chen felt that Samsung’s version understood that the overall game content should be better than Dragon Ball.
Longzhu was able to win the group 6-0 and qualify. One thing is for sure, the other three teams in Group B were a bit weak.
Of course, being able to win six consecutive bo1 games that are quite random, at least shows that Longzhu has a very strong foundation of strength.
...
After the group stage, the system's rewards for Lu Chen's successful group qualifying are in place.
Add the reward for qualifying as a group - 20 attribute points to the reaction speed.
Lu Chen’s current attributes are:
Response speed:96
Operating hand speed: 90
Teamfight coordination: 90
Version understanding:90
Hero pool:74
On-field mentality: 95
Spirituality:90
Comprehensive attributes:90
The system's next milestone task naturally requires him to defeat Longzhu in the quarterfinals and enter the semifinals.
The reward for winning Dragon Ball is actually as high as 40 attribute points.
This is much higher than the reward for winning the LPL Summer Split Finals.
In the lpl summer finals,.
Now it seems that the system has also defaulted to the fact that Dragon Ball is much stronger than RNG at that time.
However, a major feature of League of Legends is that as the version changes, the strength of each team fluctuates greatly.
More than a month has passed since the summer finals of each major competition area. Now if we play Bo5 again, no one knows what the result will be.
In the knockout stage, even teams in the same division will not easily play training matches if they are in the same half.
When everyone makes appointments for training matches, they always make appointments with teams from different regions.
If teams from different half regions want to meet in the main game, they will get the finals.
From the end of the group stage to the start of the finals, there are still nearly twenty days. Teams from different regions will be invited to play training matches. If you have any big moves or novel routines, you can feel free to experiment.
If you really can reach the finals, and then meet again one or twenty days later, the tricks and routines may have been changed several generations, and there will be no impact.
