After the draw of this S7 World Championship, it can be said that some are happy and some are sad.
The ones who are happy are naturally the fans of Cheng Lu and ig. Being able to see Cheng Lu attending this lottery ceremony has already made these fans happy, and we have drawn a good lottery, which will naturally make them further. Cheng Lu was happy to arrive.
After looking at the grouping alone, the strength of Group D, where ig is located, is actually not only considered stable by the players of Ning and ig team, but also by most of the audience.
Group d is definitely the weakest group among the four groups. If you put ig into the other three groups, it may be a big problem to advance, but in group d, there is no problem. Just get the top two It's not difficult.
And those who are worried can only be fans of edg and rng.
In fact, most current LPL viewers are more optimistic that these two teams can achieve better results this year. After all, the team's historical results and performance in the summer playoffs are better than ig.
Even though there are many people paying attention to the ig team now, they are basically here because of Cheng Lu. This year, as a new team after a blood change, it is indeed exciting that ig can enter the S7 World Championship. It's just not to the level of edg and rng.
The two teams, Pig and Dog, are still the top teams in the country. They are all built step by step based on historical results. Even if there is an extra deer this year, it will not actually affect its pattern.
LPL viewers have seen a lot of players like this type of players in competitions. It’s hard to say how IG’s players will perform in the World Championship. After all, Rookie didn’t achieve much in the World Championship before.
Of course, playing as a wild card in the qualifying round does not count. There are a lot of tricks in the wild cards, but fans can’t brag about this. There are also players who performed extremely well in the wild card team in the World Championship, and they played a few wild cards. The value of the card was all out when it was placed on the card. Later, the trend subsided and it became a naked game again. Netizens ridiculed it and even the value was not as good as before.
So ig now lacks a touchstone to show the lpl audience how far it can go in s7.
Before this, the audience was still more willing to believe in edg and rng.
The grouping situation of these two highly anticipated teams is not optimistic compared to ig.
First of all, edg was assigned to group A together with skt. This group is unique because of the name of the team skt.
Although this year's skt was a bit suppressed by lz in the lck division and could only be ranked as the second seed of lck, it has a history of winning three world championships in the s competition. Facing such an opponent, edg fans themselves None of them are optimistic about it, let alone the entire LPL audience.
During the draw in the live broadcast room, when she saw that Cheng Lu had drawn skt, all the comments on the screen were: Cool, gg...
After all, edg's previous world championships were indeed quite disappointing. edg had been in the top eight for three consecutive years, but the LPL audience's expectations for edg are definitely more than the top eight.
But the good thing is that there are actually no strong teams in Group A except SKT. Basically, most LPL viewers think that even if EDG cannot beat SKT, it will definitely be no problem to win the second place in the group stage and advance.
The top eight is every year. Whether the curse can be broken depends on this year. The viewers of LPL do not want EDG to come back with another top eight.
Of course, no one thought that edg would not be able to advance. In the group stage predictions initiated by most netizens before the game, the two teams that advanced in group A were also skt and edg.
Therefore, although skt is in the group A that edg is assigned to, it is actually pretty good.
On the contrary, the situation of group c rng is even more uncomfortable.
Fans of RNG think this is a group of death, because the average strength of this group should be the strongest.
First of all, I have to mention g2. After the draw was completed, the g2 team boldly predicted on the Internet that it would qualify first in the group with a score of 6:0.
This is in line with their style. Although g2 jumps, it still has strength.
Needless to say, ssg, netizens have already joked on the Internet that Mr. An is coming back to kill a Samsung traitor, and this time the target of cleaning up the portal is none other than rng’s coach Heart.
There is no need to mention the FB team that came up from the playoffs. In fact, most of the LPL viewers don’t know what kind of team this is, they are just cannon fodder.
Only the top two teams in each group can advance. G2 and SSG are definitely RNG's biggest opponents. Under the current predictions of netizens, the two teams that advance in Group C can only be selected from these three teams.
, more people prefer SSG and RNG, but G2 is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If you underestimate G2, you will definitely suffer.
Compared to edg, it is more difficult for rng to break out of the siege.
Before the game, domestic netizens were conducting various analyses, trying to contribute their own strength to the lpl.
For LPL viewers, this may be the most promising year, or it may be the least promising year, but regardless of whether there is hope or not, this is definitely the most important year.
In a game held at home, it would definitely be a very shameful thing if you can't see the LPL team in the Bird's Nest.
Therefore, even the fans of various companies who are usually very angry have put aside their previous conflicts and are united in speaking out.
The official also announced the preparations for this S7 World Championship, a list of training teams for participating teams during the S7 World Championship, which involves all players from omg, we, doinb, lwx, crisp...
Waiting for several strong players in various positions in the lpl, as well as coach Bai Yueya.
It is worth mentioning that ig’s duke and jacklove are also in the sparring group.
This luxurious list basically covers all the top players in the lpl.
This time the official preparations were very sufficient, and the lpl audience seemed to take a reassurance after seeing it.
However, in this list, there is a player like Ah Shui who can't play in the game now, which makes many ig fans feel very regretful.
The current ig still has room for improvement. If Ah Shui can play, it may be stronger. If it can participate in this world championship in the strongest state, it will definitely go further.
But now we can only count on West to be stable in this World Championship. In the previous summer games, West King's performance was indeed okay, and the audience can also see his growth, but can he withstand the World Championship?
Due to the pressure of the game, West is still the biggest worry for ig fans. We can only hope that West can grow more during the training period when so many top LPL bottom lane players join the training team.

October 5, Wuhan Sports Center.
The much-anticipated S7 group stage has officially started. According to the official schedule announced on the first day, rng and edg will each have a game today. Among the 6 games, rng will kick off the first game and edg will finish the last game.
The scene was crowded with people, and everywhere you could see fan cards holding EDG, RNG, IG teams and various fans to support the players. Even though there was no IG game today, there were still many fans who came to support Cheng Lu. The audience in the live broadcast room
I have been waiting for you for a long time.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the game officially started. The first game was between the two teams rng and fb.
There is definitely a gap in strength between the two teams, but since they can reach the stage of the World Championship group stage, they must have fought step by step from each division. No one is easy.
There are actually many factors that define the gap in a team's strength, such as player strength, play tactics, and black technology, all of which are taken into account to reflect the strength of a team.
Among them, player strength is definitely the foundation. Playing tactics and black technology can be flexible and changeable, and this can only be regarded as a strange move. No matter which team has it, a weak team can also use it to defeat the strong.
However, this trick cannot be used everywhere. Once used, it will attract the opponent's attention and lead to research and cracking. Therefore, this can only be regarded as a strange trick, and it must be hidden until the right time to use it.
rng must be hiding something, and fb is also hiding something.
The World Championship is a protracted battle. Players from strong teams are stronger. If you want to go far, you must hide your own things as much as possible to prevent your opponents from figuring out your playing style and tactics. Players from weak teams are stronger.
Weaker, if you want to go further, you must take out something to catch it unawares, and defeat the strong with the weak, so that you can continue to go.
rng is in Group C, a group with relatively strong average strength. Obviously, if it wants to advance, it will expose more things.
However, this was the first time they encountered the weakest fb in the group, and it was not to the point where they needed to dig out something. The players’ hard skills were enough to deal with it, so be sure to be steady.
But FB is obviously prepared.
The first game officially started. FB's jungler Leopard Girl organized the middle and lower teammates to come over to help. Their purpose in starting this game was very clear, which was to invade the wild area of RNG's jungler excavator together. The game time lasted
In about 30 seconds, FB's four people bypassed RNG's field of vision and directly caught RNG's unsuspecting three-man team. In the end, FB's well-designed first-level team allowed Leopard Girl to win the MLXG excavator.
With first blood, even a weak team that is not favored by others can take advantage of a strong team as long as they are ruthless.
Faced with the opponent's sudden aggression, rng still remained stable. Their idea in this round was very simple, which was to use their best playing style to delay until the later stage. As long as there were no troubles in the early stage, they would wait until Xiaoming Fengnu's incense burner was made.
In the strong period, you can win in the later stage with Uzi's big mouth.
However, in fact, the difference in the bot lane of this version of Xianglu is very small. They all choose soft assistants and brush each other. Uzi and Ming, the top bot lane combination of lpl, have no suppressive effect against the bot lane duo of FB.
In the bottom lane, the soft assistants are developing against each other. It is difficult to gank, so mlxg aimed at FB's mid laner, intending to cooperate with Xiaohu to find a wave of opportunities.
However, Xiaohu's Ryze didn't do much damage in the early stage. After 10 minutes of game time, it was just a water droplet, magic resistance cloak, and red crystal equipment. However, the opposing FB mid laner Syndra had full damage equipment and FB jungler.
Leopard Girl happened to be nearby at this time.
The result is obvious. This wave of mlxg's gank was directly counter-crouched by Leopard Girl. Excavator combined with Ryze with a pressure-resistant equipment did not do enough damage, and Syndra's set of skills knocked out half of Excavator's health.
.
In the Leopard Woman form, she threw a Q skill to collect mlxg's head, but what was outrageous was that an excavator, which was controlled by Syndra's E skill and could not move, was left for the Leopard Woman to Q. This Q skill was all empty. This kind of
Even if he makes mistakes, it can only be said that he is a bit too weak in terms of strength.
But fortunately, there is still flash. After Syndra once again made up for the damage of a Q, Leopard Girl flashed up and took the head. So far, FB had two heads ahead of RNG, all of which were in Leopard Girl's hands.
The audience was stunned. This kind of leopard girl can take down two heads. She is really good at it.
FB's preparations are indeed quite adequate, but there is indeed a slight gap in player strength. FB's mid laner Syndra can still suppress Xiaohu's Ruici online, and the combination of Xiaopao Lulu selected from the bottom lane is also
Big Mouth and Feng Nu, who were able to suppress RNG's bottom lane, were chased back in the mid-term. Taking advantage of the opportunity of Xiao Pao and Lulu to push the tower, letme also teleported to a very late ward TP that Xiao Ming had inserted in the grass in advance.
After a wave of double-teaming, players from other lanes on both sides also dared to come to support at this time. Suddenly, a 5-on-5 situation was formed in the bottom lane. However, when the fight started, FB was in chaos, and the problem of insufficient execution of team battles was exposed.
The clear view directly caused rng to play a wave of 0 for 3.
The Leopard Girl who took two human heads in front was of no use at all. She was killed as soon as she entered.
From this wave on, the situation of both parties reversed, and fb, which had taken a small advantage in the front, was brought into the rhythm of rng.
By grouping together and pushing towers to gain resources, rng continued to expand its advantage, and then directly started to force the group when the economic advantage was significantly ahead. After several team battles broke out, the game lasted 40 minutes, fb was unable to recover, and was bulldozed by rng's base.
At the end of this game, the head-to-head ratio was fixed at 9:3.
This is a very rng-style game. FB still had the advantage in the early stage, but after 20 minutes, it started to reverse. Although the head ratio seemed to be very different, the whole game was indeed a back-and-forth game.
Yes, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to play for 40 minutes.
It seems a little unpleasant, but fortunately it is a good start for LPL, and it is also something that makes LPL viewers happy.
The second game between ssg and g2 was also a back-and-forth game. The head ratio was very close. In the end, ssg played a very beautiful team battle and won the game.
In the third game, lz faced imt. There was a big gap in strength between the two teams. However, after the game started, it was similar to rng. The two sides played back and forth.
But just like ssg, lz and ssg can still end the game in more than 20 minutes, and they are not as hidden as rng.
Strong teams all think the same thing, hide as much as you can, and win in the later stages if you are stable.
In the fourth game, FNC faced GAM. This time GAM showed the black technology of the nightmare jungler, and coupled with the top laner Galio, FNC was caught off guard. Although Caps' wandering performance was okay, GAM still tied in 24 minutes.
FNC's base has stolen a lot of chicken, but it can be predicted that it will be difficult to meet other teams in the next gam without new things.
In the fifth game, skt faced c9. There was a big gap in strength between the two teams. c9 didn't come up with anything new. skt easily won the game in 26 minutes.
The results of the first five games did not go beyond the audience's expectations. In addition to gam using a lot of black technology, the strong teams played steadily and won.
What follows is the last game of the first day, edg vs. ahq.
