Chapter 83 Don't call me at the opening silver party, right?
"RNG and WE are fine."
The current points situation in the group stage makes Tian Ye feel very comfortable: "The three LPL groups are ranked first. This year will not really be the most promising year in the LPL, right?"
After defeating SKT, Abramovich gave the EDG players a half-day leave with a wave of his hand, and specifically prohibited them from squatting in front of the computer to play Ranking, saying they needed to relax.
Mingkai, a local snake, originally wanted to show his kindness to the landlord and take the team members around. Mouse also said that he had found a good bar in the past two days and wanted to take everyone there to have fun and relax.
He was stopped by Yang Yi.
The reason is very simple. WE, who just finished the pool party at MSI, is still hanging on the old crooked neck tree. We must learn from the past.
In the end, everyone stayed in the hotel and watched this afternoon's six group matches comfortably using a projector.
After hearing what Tian Ye said, Yang Yi felt his eyes darken: "I beg you, can you fuck me?"
He heard this slogan from S5 to S6 for two full years, but what was the result?
Not to mention reaching the finals like S3 and S4, LPL has not even made it to the semi-finals in the past two years!
It’s no wonder that Brother Zuko is so popular in the LPL. It’s not because he has been fighting on the field for many years like a red-tempered tortoise. It’s just that his World Championship results so far have not been surpassed by other LPL players.
Speaking of Brother Bath, Yang Yi is also quite confused.
He actually wanted to face RNG in the first round of the knockout round, so that he could directly send Brother Bath away to Joy and personally give him a top eight.
It's a pity that, looking at the current situation, RNG has no opponent at all in Group C. G2's mid laner was so loud before, but it was broken at the first touch in the game, and SSG was directly blocked by RNG.
In this case, RNG has basically determined that it will qualify first in the group, and EDG will also try its best to win the first place in the group. It is impossible to take second place in the group just because "it wants to give Uzi a top eight"
.
Therefore, Yang Yi can only hope with a little regret that RNG can at least be in the same half zone as them. In this case, he will still have the opportunity to personally deliver Brother Bath to the top four.
Ming Kai got up from the sofa, stretched and said:
"Okay, now that we've finished watching the game, let's go and do what we have to do."
"I'm going to have some late-night snacks and then go to training...Yangzai, are you going?" Tian Tian asked.
Although Abramovich gave them a holiday, professional players must maintain their touch, and the necessary Rank is still indispensable.
Yang Yi nestled on the sofa and waved his hands: "You go first, I will check my phone for a while."
"Okay, then I'll bring you something you usually like to eat. You can just come to the training room later."
...No wonder Mr. Dai wanted to take Meiko with him when he returned to LCK, Yang Yi thought to himself while fiddling with his phone.
Her face looks so tender, and she actually has a bit of the attributes of a wife.
The online response to the fact that all three LPL teams finished first in their group was also very enthusiastic.
In order to keep the championship in China, the LPL division is unprecedentedly united this time. Even the Anti-pressure Bar, known as the Louvre of e-sports, has announced that it will unite with the outside world during the World Championship. EDG, RNG and WE were
Before they are eliminated, no one is allowed to lead the rhythm of these three teams. Once discovered, the post will be deleted and the black room will wait for them.
The performance of the three teams did not disappoint the audience. After the first round of the group stage, the three LPL teams occupied the top spot in their respective groups. This is the first time in the history of the global finals that this has happened.
[I cried when I saw it, Yusanjia is so awesome!]
[The main reason is that EDG is awesome. Neither RNG nor WE have particularly strong opponents in the same group. They were originally scheduled to be first in the group. I really didn’t expect that EDG could defeat SKT.]
[Can the pig offal be repelled? I have to step on it? We are also first in the group, your first place is greater than mine?]
[What’s wrong? Last year, Huang Za still said that your top eight were better than mine, so Piggy wasn’t allowed to fight back? 】
[Please understand first, EDG is in the top eight every year, while RNG was only in the top eight last year, and the performance of Factory Director 4396 last year is still incredible?]
[Haha, then I also wish you RNG to become stronger and stronger every year. The top eight this year and the top nine next year will be great. 】
[Fuck you, RNG will always be in the top eight or sixteen?]
[Stop arguing, I just hope that all three teams can maintain this ranking until the end. I really want to see the three LPL groups take the first place!]
[Me too, the main reason is that this can stably avoid the LPL civil war. To be honest, it would be a pity no matter who wins or loses in the civil war. 】
[Really, I would rather see three LPLs fighting three LCKs than an LPL civil war.]
[Qingshi, if you lose in the foreign war, there is nothing to say. If your skills are not as good as others, you will be defeated. If you lose in the civil war, you may be owed a championship by some teams.]
[That’s pretty much it. OMG didn’t make it to the World Championship this year, so don’t beat up 59E.]
[But if three LPLs play against three LCKs, if you are unlucky, you may lose them all in the top eight.]
[The top eight are just the top eight. It doesn’t matter. In the past two years, LPL’s best result in the World Championship was the top eight. I’ve long been used to it. 】
[Optimistically speaking, why can’t the three LPL teams meet in the semi-finals? The three LPL teams faced off against LZ, the only team in the LCK. It’s exciting to think about it. 】
[Then LZ faced the encirclement and suppression of three LPL teams and directly defeated EDG first and then RNG to win the championship, right? 】
[I have seen this plot before, the classic top four encircling SKT, right? Dreaming back to S5!]
[Stop it, if the S5 group stage can be played like this, labor and management will laugh out of their dreams.]
[I heard that the patriarch seems to be retiring. Woohoo, my optimistic family...]
Yang Yi, who had been watching the show happily at first, felt a little unbearable now, not because Tieba's views were too pessimistic, but because he used to be a member of an optimistic family.
In previous years’ global finals, the first round of group matches for LPL teams was full of twists and turns, such as the S5 one.
First, IG surrendered on National Day, giving all Chinese League of Legends players an opening lightning strike, and then EDG was beaten violently by SKT. This was barely acceptable, after all, the opponent was a big devil.
Finally, this heavyweight, the No. 1 seed in the LPL, who had high hopes, was beaten 0-3 in the first round of the group stage.
Yang Yi remembers it clearly. At that time, there were almost no one in the anti-pressure club who complained about Lao Gan Daddy. They all analyzed the schedule and discussed how big Lao Gan Daddy’s chances were of qualifying for the second round. Naturally, he
No exception...
The depth of love and the depth of responsibility.
Maybe it was because I was heartbroken by my old godfather, but now no team can receive such treatment. Everyone has become very harsh on LPL teams, especially EDG, which has repeatedly disappointed fans and audiences.
However, after Yang Yi had been practicing in a professional team for a year, from his current point of view, there was something wrong with the incident when Lao Gan Daddy qualified for the top 16 in reverse.
It would be fine if the old godfather is really not as good as others, but Imp was at the peak of competition at that time, and Gao Dewei just didn't practice the Czar version of the hero very much. Top laner A was impeccable in both laning and team play. With these three
C, bottom line, no matter how bad the status of Nosuke and LGD is, it is not difficult for LGD just to qualify for the group stage.
It's just that the two B's of Nosuke are not just in trouble with their status.
Aya Hirano is doing something like a hot man making steel, and Taobao Quan uses a blue shield in the face of a four-AP lineup. No matter how you look at it, this is a problem with your thinking.
Especially for the latter, the former can be said to be caused by Hongmi, the actual coach of Lao Godfather, not coming to the World Championships, but there is no reasonable explanation for the latter.
Of course, there are reasonable explanations, that is...
Maybe it's similar to our own Dota branch.
As we all know, Lao Gan Daddy’s Dota division is invincible 364 days out of 365 days a year.
After surfing the Internet for a while, and taking some pointers in the anti-stress bar, Yang Yi walked to the training room very disciplinedly.
The 3-0 start only makes EDG's subsequent qualifying situation more optimistic, but it does not guarantee that EDG will definitely qualify.
From the end of the first round of the group stage on October 8th to the start of the second round of the group stage on October 12th, there are three full days left for the sixteen teams participating in the global finals to make adjustments.
In these three days, there might be a team that undergoes earth-shaking changes and suddenly becomes very adaptable to the version. In order to prevent such accidents from happening, Yang Yi knows that he cannot be careless or relaxed at all.
As the Juggernaut's lines say - you can never wait for victory to come.
Speaking of which, the lines of League of Legends are really well designed. Each hero's lines match his character very well. For example, Master Yi often says some philosophical words.
The hero Qing Gangying, who was just released this year, has been dubbed the "life mentor" by players. Most of the lines are worthy of careful reading, and the Chinese translation is perfectly honest and elegant, and the voice actors are also very powerful.
.
From this point of view alone, the "putting on straw sandals and feeling like flying" and "how many handfuls, what do you mean" film games next door will never be able to hit the mark.
During these three days, EDG players were very busy, and the coaching staff was naturally not idle either.
As the current leader of Group A and the favorite to defeat SKT, EDG will certainly not lack teams to schedule training matches with them. The daily training schedule is fully arranged, and the intensity is even higher than in the previous playoffs.
It was still high at that time.
The EDG players have nothing to complain about. It's like studying hard to sprint before the college entrance examination. Every drop of sweat shed in the training game is for the accumulation in the official game.
The coaching staff has to work overtime to conduct data analysis on the group matches of the past few days and the training matches of the past three days, and study the opponents' playing styles and some personal habits.
Everyone is working hard for the same goal, which is to enable EDG to go further in this world championship.
And this is what most European and American teams cannot understand.
Take FNC for example. Taking advantage of the three-day break, FNC's ADC player Ou Cheng actually made an appointment with LPL female host Yu Shuang to go to the amusement park together. I don't know what Brother Guan is feeling now.
Yang Yi has heard some rumors. It is said that the European high school student actually has a lot of fun in private. However, he has many female fans in China. Some girls even buy air tickets from thousands of miles away and actively give away...send feathers to others.
Well, etiquette is less important than affection.
He didn't quite believe it at first, but after he accidentally bumped into Rekkles and returned to the room with two girls in his arms, and received a small card thrust under the door of his room, Yang Yi finally believed it.
By the way, he also accidentally bumped into a few hot girls who were providing door-to-door services in the room at WE. It was not clear who he was looking for.
After all, he shouldn’t be the brother-in-law, right? With the looks of the brother-in-law, there should be no shortage of peach blossoms around him.
But Mouse was immediately furious after hearing the news.
Damn Kandi, why don’t you call me Kaiyin Party?
Fortunately, I took you with me when I went out before!
This is secondary. The most important thing is that we are currently playing in the global finals. In the face of such an important matter, not a single substitute in Aguang dared to say that he went out to do something during this period. Kandi actually couldn't control his lower body.
?
"WE... probably can't go far," Mouse said meaningfully. "Even if we make it to the knockout round, we can only go down one round at most."
That's all he said today. With a jungler who can't control his addiction to criticism, WE will be successful if we can reach the semi-finals!
——————
Three days passed by in a blink of an eye.
EDG played smoothly in the first round of the group stage, so the emergency measures prepared by Abramovich were not used. The second round of the group stage started from Group A as usual according to the format of previous years.
Yang Yi got up very early today. They had to play three consecutive BO1 games this afternoon, so they went to bed very early yesterday and had a rare breakfast today.
There was no tofu noodle in the breakfast provided by the hotel. Yang Yi wanted to drink it on a whim, so he made an appointment with Ye Tian to go out together.
"By the way, do you like to drink sweet or salty tofu?"
"Of course it's salty. Dogs won't even drink sweet tofu!"
"Yo Xi!"
Tian Ye is very pleased that the hero sees the same thing!
As a result, I happened to bump into a bald guy downstairs - it was the top laner of the LZ team. Khan once insulted "four Chinese can't win" in a ranked match.
Of course, Khan immediately paid the price for his inappropriate remarks. He was fined his salary by the club and publicly apologized. In order to show his sincerity, he even shaved his head. His new hair still hasn't grown much.
Yang Yi didn't have any feelings for him. Although the other party's apology was relatively sincere, the four people who were insulted were all from Wanwan, but Wanwan Province has been part of China since ancient times, and the map cannoned to all Chinese people is Khan.
There is something wrong with my brain.
But what surprised him was that after Khan saw EDG's bottom lane duo, he actually took the initiative to come up and say hello.
"Meiko, Majesty, hello," he said with a naive smile in broken Chinese, "I am Khan, the top laner of the LZ team."
Yang Yi and Tian Ye looked at each other silently.
"What's going on? Do you know this person?"
"I don't know. Maybe he's familiar with Deft? He's very popular."
I don’t know what kind of medicine this guy is selling in his gourd, so Yang Yi could only respond simply:
"Hello hello."
In the end, they didn't say much, just said hello and left. Yang Yi was thinking about his salty tofu pudding and today's game, and had no interest in asking any more questions.
And this scene happened to be captured by an unreliable domestic e-sports self-media, and then conveniently saved.
Maybe it will become material one day in the future.
