Chapter 158 Playoffs

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The regular season is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the condition of everyone in WE is getting better and better visibly.

Why is it said to be visible to the naked eye?

Literally, Zhuge Liang can now directly see the status of the players through the naked eye.

As a reward for the global competition, Zhuge Liang received a special prop.

At first glance, this is just an ordinary pair of glasses, almost no different from what Zhuge Liang wears on weekdays.

However, as a black technology prop rewarded by the system, in addition to never being damaged and protecting eyesight, these glasses also have a special function.

After Zhuge Liang puts on these glasses, he can clearly see the real-time status of the players.

Green represents good status, yellow represents ordinary status, and red represents poor status.

It seems very useful at first glance, but in actual use, this thing is completely useless.

This rough division of "traffic lights" has limited reference significance.

To put it bluntly, if Zhuge Liang couldn't figure out the general condition of the players who were being trained by him every day, he might as well just resign and leave!

If this item has an advanced version, for example, if you can clearly see the player's combat power value or the five-pointed star chart of each ability, then it can be called a real black technology.

Of course, this thing can also exert an effect comparable to that of an artifact under certain circumstances.

For example, with the help of the "traffic light" function, Zhuge Liang can spy on the enemy before the game and learn whether anyone on the enemy is in poor condition today, and use this as a tactical breakthrough.

However, there is still a problem that cannot be circumvented. The criteria for dividing the three color blocks are not detailed enough.

After nearly two weeks of playing, Zhuge Liang was stunned not to see a single player with a red light.

Therefore, the greatest value of this prop is that it gave Zhuge Liang a free pair of glasses that are comfortable to wear and protect his eyesight.

……

As the state recovered, WE started a winning streak again.

Although the regular season is not over yet, WE has steadily qualified and secured a spot in the playoffs.

This season, the major teams are very tight on points. Except for the first-ranked WE, which is two points ahead of the second tier, there are four teams in the second tier that have the same major points, and even the small points are almost the same.

According to the new competition system, as long as WE ensures the first place in the regular season, it can go straight to the third round of the playoffs and guarantee a seat in the top four.

And thanks to the points gained from the Spring Split Champion, WE will be able to qualify for the S7 Bubble Tournament for the last time.

In other words, WE has at least three lives to advance to the global finals!

Of course, Zhuge Liang does not want to have to catch the last train in an exciting way like in his previous life.

There is a story about that bubble match against IG. If WE.st hadn’t given the opportunity in the life-and-death game, maybe IG would have replaced WE in the World Championship.

You can participate in the global finals as the No. 1 seed. Do you deliberately fall to the No. 3 seed and play an extra round of play-in games to adjust your status?

Coming to the World Championship, it can be said that the videos of every game will be studied repeatedly by teams around the world.

If the team's reserves are not deep enough, there is a high probability that it will be thoroughly studied and suffer a hidden loss in the subsequent knockout stages.

If the advantages of playing in the playoffs really outweigh the disadvantages, the tournament would be stupid and would arrange for the third seed to play.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang's goal is very clear.

Qualify first in the regular season, strive for the summer championship, and compete in the S7 Global Finals as the top seed!

……

After winning against OMG, WE still have 2 BO3s left to play.

The opponents are BLG and FPX. Both teams are currently in the third tier and are on the edge of the playoffs.

Now that WE's condition is improving, most viewers don't think BLG and FPX can overturn WE.

The facts did not go beyond the audience's predictions. WE defeated BLG and FPX with a clean score of 2:0 in two games.

Since then, WE has locked in the top spot in the regular season.

A few days later, the summer regular season officially came to an end.

The eight teams that advance to the playoffs are: WE, RNG, EDG, OMG, IG, JD, FPX, LNG.

Among them, teams ranked 1, 4, 5, and 8 in the regular season are divided into the upper half, and teams ranked 2, 3, 6, and 7 are divided into the bottom half.

In the first round of the playoffs, IG will face LNG, and JD will face FPX.

IG improved significantly in the second half of the season, and once repeatedly overturned strong teams. Unfortunately, the pitfalls in the first half were too big, and finally fell to the fifth position.

LNG was just the opposite. The second half of the schedule became intense, and Crystal's injury seriously affected their competitive state. As a result, the team won less and lost more, and almost fell out of the playoffs.

According to general opinion, the focus of this round of BO5 is the midfield and upper jungle competition between the two teams.

The top domestic top laner, Holy Spear, faced off against the emerging operator Theshy.

The Vietnamese bandit Sofm faces the upstart Ning in the jungle.

Facing his old teammate Rookie in the middle.

These players are all representatives with extremely high ceilings, and they often give the audience unexpected surprises.

As for the bottom lane of both sides, it has been relatively ignored.

In the first game, the two top laners showed off each other.

Theshy was inspired by 957 and fell in love with the taste of Lu Xian in advance.

Brother Shengqiang is also worthy of his acrobatic top lane, and suddenly he took out a snake girl top laner.

In the early and middle stages of the game, the top laners of both sides collided frequently, completely becoming the team's colander and the cash machine of the opponent's midfielder!

The two of them seemed to be at odds. They didn't want to retreat when someone came, but instead wanted to operate.

Just stand out and dare to catch and die!

While fans of the two teams were doing sit-ups, passers-by watched with gusto and shouted how wonderful it was.

The two sides fought fiercely for forty minutes, and IG was superior and won the first victory.

In the second game, the lineups of both sides became much more normal.

No, it can even be said to be outrageously normal.

The two top laners who were very happy in the last game, this time you take Sion and I take the big tree, completely becoming outsiders.

The two big pieces of meat were killing each other, which really made the audience vomit.

Surprisingly, Baolan performed perfect control shows several times after getting Luo, becoming the biggest contributor to IG's victory in the game.

LNG was on the verge of life and death. Brother Crystal endured his hand injury and used his signature Draven to penetrate the IG bottom lane.

Seeing the bloodthirsty Draven killing everyone on the field, the commentators and the audience were in awe.

What a pity. If he hadn’t suffered any injuries, maybe he would have been another ADC player in the LPL!

LNG regained a point. After the game, the scene of Brother Crystal rubbing his wrists and looking pale was quite sad for a hero at the end of his life.

In the fourth game of BO5, LNG selected a lineup with Sword Lady alone, and once had a considerable advantage.

It’s just that success is Sofm and failure is Sofm.

At the critical moment, Sofm went too far and was forced to stay by IG, losing the baron.

Jian Ji's single belt was blocked, and IG gained momentum and firmly took the initiative.

LNG made consecutive mistakes in a hurry, completely ruining a good game.

IG defeated LNG 3:1 and advanced to the second round.

The next day, the game between JD and FPX started.
