Chapter 66: LPL likes to open champagne at halftime, right?
"Laughing, LPL opened the champagne at halftime again."
The WE team was able to defeat the SKT team and win the game in such a domineering manner, which was somewhat unexpected for Mingrui.
After all, in his opinion, although the LPL team has the "most promising year" every year and wants to defeat the LCK and complete the task of resisting South Korea every year, in fact, except for a few "successful victories in resisting Korea", in fact
, most of the time, LPL teams are unlikely to pose any threat to LCK teams.
Not only because of the absolute gap in strength, but also because of the fear from the bottom of my heart, LPL's fear of LCK, and LCK's blood suppression of LPL!
Therefore, this is why the LPL fans were so excited and crazy after the WE team finally defeated the SKT team in a BO1. After all, for them, being able to defeat the LCK team once is equivalent to celebrating the New Year!
Just looking at the LPL fans who rushed into his scarf comment section and started to show off their power to him, Mingrui felt that there was something wrong in their minds.
Because in the past many years, LPL fans like to open champagne at halftime to celebrate, as if it is a passive skill exclusive to them. As long as the LPL team achieves some results, then in the eyes of LPL fans, LPL
The team can win this year’s world championship!
But the question is, in the five years from S2 to S6, apart from the MSI in 2015, has the LPL also won other S championships and MSI championships?
Not one!
And which time didn’t everyone die while popping the champagne at halftime?
During S2, all LPL viewers felt that the WE team must be the S championship that year, after all, they had just won the IPL5 world championship.
The result? WE and IG, together, both fell in the top eight of that year... Even if the CLG unplugging incident did not happen, the WE team successfully entered the semi-finals, and it is unlikely that they could beat the Taipei Assassins in the future! p>
During S3 and S4, the talented boy Uzi came out of nowhere and everyone had high hopes. Especially when Uzi led the Royal Family to the finals for two consecutive years, everyone believed that he could definitely bring the first S game to the LPL.
Champion.
The result? S3 lost to Faker, who is also a talented boy, and S4 even lost to SSW, which has been called the strongest team in the world until now!
As for S5, not to mention, the LPL summer champion LGD team has not even gone abroad, and Wei Shen has already begun to worry about which champion skin to choose, while MSI champion EDG is also targeting the world championship.
What was the result? Not only did LGD fail to ban Tetsuo, but they were eliminated in the group stage. As for the EDG team, they lost a humiliating 0-4 to FNC and fell into the quarterfinals!
S6, that is, last year, when everyone claimed that "this year is the most promising year for the LPL", the EDG team, the RNG team, and the IM team who completed the triple jump feat went to S6 together, and even held quite a few
A grand and grand expedition ceremony.
The result? Before the two official commentators of Doll Miller got off the plane, all three LPL teams were eliminated and went home!
Now, the S7 MSI has only reached the second day of the group stage, and the WE team has only won three BO1 victories. LPL fans are eager to book the WE team as the champion of this year's MSI.
What’s the result?
Although the result has not happened yet, in Mingrui's view, the end time of LPL's darkest moment will definitely not be this MSI, or even this year.
Their LPL needs to wait until at least they retire before they have a chance to win the world championship they long for from the LCK!
"Open champagne at halftime? What do you mean?"
Seeing Mingrui secretly laughing at the screen with his mobile phone, Perkz asked curiously, because after a month of understanding, Perkz was sure that whenever Dark made such movements and expressions, he must be talking to him again.
LPL fans are online.
"We and LPL fans have already booked to win the group and qualify, and even booked this year's MSI championship."
"Brothers, do you agree? Why don't you give WE a try tomorrow to satisfy their poor vanity?"
Dark asked with a smile. At that time, the G2 coach was anxious.
"What the hell? Give WE a try? Dark, are you crazy!"
"If WE really wins, even if the LPL fans start scolding you and our G2, the fans in Europe will have to scold us for several days."
"So don't let WE go to waste tomorrow. Our goal is to win the group and qualify!"
The G2 coach was in a hurry, but he said it seriously, which made Mingrui and his teammates laugh.
"Coach, we were just joking. How can we let WE win tomorrow?"
"Besides, in the eyes of those LPL fans, I am a traitor to the LPL, so even if I lose to any team, I cannot lose to WE!"
Mingrui said in a dumbfounded voice, already looking forward to tomorrow's game against the WE team.
"Traitor of LPL? Didn't LPL itself not want you? Why did you become the traitor instead?"
Zven asked doubtfully at this time, feeling that the logic here was somewhat strange.
"Haha, when I wanted to stay in the LPL, they refused for various reasons and even asked me to get out of the LPL."
"But now that I see that I am so powerful and pose a threat to their LPL, I have turned into a traitor."
"This may be the unique brain circuit of LPL fans!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Mingrui sneered repeatedly, but he didn't pay special attention to this matter.
After all, they have mouths on their bodies, how can Mingrui control what they say?
All Mingrui can do is to break the mouths of all LPL fans with practical actions by winning against LPL teams one after another!
"It's a pity that our game against WE is postponed to tomorrow, otherwise we can wait and see the reaction of LPL fans after the WE team lost to us."
"But it doesn't matter. Don't you often say a Chinese proverb: If you have a good meal, you won't be afraid of being late?"
"Tomorrow, we will definitely defeat WE and secure the first place in the group!"
Perkz nodded, patted Mingrui's shoulder lightly and said loudly.
……
The second half of MSI Day 2 started quickly.
In the fourth game, the FW team defeated the GAM team and finally ushered in their first victory in this MSI.
In the fifth game, the WE team appeared again, and in a hot state, they continued to defeat the TSM team and won the first four consecutive victories in the group stage!
In the sixth game, the G2 team made its final appearance. Once again, despite the "expectations" of all LPL fans, it defeated the FW team and also won their fourth point in the MSI group stage.
Therefore, after the second day of MSI, the points rankings of the six teams changed slightly again.
The first place G2 team, 4-0.
The second place WE team, 4-0.
The third place SKT team, 2-2.
Fourth place FW team, 1-3.
The fifth GAM team, 1-3.
Sixth place TSM team, 0-4.
When the points ranking was finally released, it happened to be eight o'clock in the morning, China time.
It’s the time when countless LPL fans go to work or go to school!
And when more and more LPL fans saw that the WE team not only ranked first in the group after two days of MSI, but also directly defeated the SKT team, they were disappointed with the WE team's final performance in this year's MSI.
Results create higher expectations!
"It seems that this year is really the most promising year for the LPL. SKT is no longer our opponent for WE. How can G2 beat us?"
"What is the status of G2? Why is it 4-0 like our WE? In tomorrow's battle for the top spot in the group stage, WE will definitely beat G2 to death!"
"G2 must be lucky that they did not meet us WE two days ago, otherwise, how could they be qualified to tie with us WE?!"
"Let's see, when WE break G2's mentality tomorrow, in the second round of the game, G2 may lose all 5 games, and then be directly eliminated 4-6!"
"Why does time pass so slowly? It's only 8:30. I really want to fast forward to 4:30 tomorrow morning and see WE crush G2 with my own eyes!"
Wearing scarves, countless LPL fans are full of expectations and confidence for tomorrow's game, and even eagerly rushed into @G2.Dark's scarf again, asking him to wash it off and prepare to die, ready to face the trial from LPL!
Trial from LPL?
Seeing these idiotic comments in the comment area, Mingrui just thinks it's ridiculous.
The LPL is still trying to judge him. Tomorrow's game against the WE team is obviously his first revenge against the entire LPL!
"Let's continue opening champagne at halftime, preferably a few more bottles."
"When we win against WE tomorrow, you will know who is the real big daddy of LPL!"
"When the time comes, I want to see what else you can bark at!"
Mingrui snorted coldly and then pulled out the scarf.
……
May 13.
The third match day of the 2017 MSI Mid-Season Championship Invitational Group Stage has arrived as promised.
The third match day is special because the first three games will be the last three games of the first round of the group stage, and the last three games will directly enter the second round of the group stage BO1 cycle.
The outcome of the first three games is crucial to all six teams.
Because it will not only affect the final ranking of each team after the first round, but also affect their qualifying situation after the second round!
In other words, no one wants to lose if possible!
But in the face of absolute strength, confidence cannot play any role in the outcome of the game.
In the first game, the SKT team directly slaughtered the GAM team, officially setting their round record as 3-2, while the GAM team was 1-4.
In the second game, no matter how much the TSM team wanted to win their first victory in this MSI, they still struggled to win against the FW team who also wanted to win more games. Once again
The defeat fixed the one-round record at 0-5 and also gave the FW team a record of 2-3.
And when these two somewhat "boring" games finally ended, audiences all over the world were finally shocked and instantly became energetic.
Because the upcoming third game is not only the last game of the first round of the group stage, but also a game that everyone is looking forward to!
The G2 team and the WE team, these two teams that defeated SKT in the first two days of the game and won four consecutive victories, are finally about to meet each other for the first time, and they are also the first place in the first round of the group stage.
Battle!
As long as you win this key game, you can not only lock in the qualifying spot in the group in advance, but you can also do your part and become the real number one in the group!
But the most eye-catching point of this game is actually not at all.
It’s about the bloody feud between these two teams!
Is it the "traitor" who is the WE team in the LPL region who kills the G2 team Dark player?
Or has the Dark player successfully taken revenge on the LPL, a garbage region that slandered him and expelled him?
Everything depends on the battle for the top spot that is about to begin!
