The edg game didn’t start until the third game on the 15th, so I had time to train in the hotel in the afternoon and then go to the venue before the game started.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Brazil time, when the American Summer rankings were fierce, the first game started at the Olympic Stadium.
The first game of GAM is against FW. Although it is said that TSM and EU are competing most fiercely for the promotion spot, GAM's record is 2-5 and FW's 3-4 respectively. There is also the possibility of theoretical qualifying and theoretical elimination.
So this first game is a life and death situation for both sides.
It's just that after the first four days of competition, the Vietnamese's three axes are still stretched.
The old Mantis jungler Lissandra mid laner is brought out, and anyone can see what they are thinking.
Wolf King Karsa continued to choose the male gun and easily drove the Vietnamese Wild King Levi's Mantis out of the wild area, making an economic difference of 10,000 in twenty minutes.
In the end, gam didn't want to wait for death, so he went out to the high ground to pick up the team with FW, but regrettably lost the team and his final hope of qualifying.
After the first game was played, Mei Xia took a brief look at the Tieba battle report of the first game, and then rode with the team to the venue.
After arriving at the venue, the second game between tsm and skt was getting exciting.
Although tsm has not reached the point of being eliminated immediately after losing the game like gam, but if you want to control the fate of promotion, you must win this difficult game, so the game is treated with an uncompromising determination.
And skt actually gave them a chance for the sake of training the lineup...
Just looking at the lineup, somehow, tsm managed to get top laner Kenan to face Huni’s Rambo!
Mixia estimated.
It may be that KKoma originally wanted to give Huni the solo hero Kennen on BP to verify the players' practice results in the past few days.
But in this game, TSM has the right to take the lead and the blue team has the right to take the lead. At the same time, their coach has no worries about being fooled. If you let Kenan go, I will take the lead!
So the battle between Kenan and Rambo came out.
The game played live on the LCD screen in the lounge went on for 30 minutes. Although TSM's jungle race knight Cuishen had a record of 0-3, he was killed by the little peanut mantis.
But their well-developed single Kennen will be useful in the late stage with the redemption bonus of Cuishen and Nami's double incense burners!
The game continued fiercely until 40 minutes. Not only did tsm defend the crystal on their own high ground, half-blood Kennen threw wildly with his shuriken. Before Mantis jumped up and aqa seconds passed, he hit the full mark and then used w to stun him, and then his teammates hit him.
Kill.
Holding the high ground, TSM immediately pushed back three defense towers, and then caught Huni's Rambo who dared to go out and lead the line.
Five on four, the Baron and the Ancient Dragon were paired together! TSM completed the biggest upset in the MSI group stage!
And they will also hold their last hope of promotion firmly in their own hands!
After the game, audiences all over the world were happy.
The Chinese audience who watched the game in the middle of the night felt that it was worth staying up late.
[Can even North American teams resist South Korea now? 】
[This is how the South Korean team cannot defeat the Mei army stationed in South Korea]
[Anti-Korean? American dad beats up his traitorous son!]
[SKT, who boasted better than edg before the game, how could he even lose to tsm? 】
【Is huni repaying his old club? 】
[Don’t be embarrassed, this is seeing the memory of Hu Burou from the North American region reviving in tsm’s brain! He wants to kill someone out of control!]
…
In the g2 lounge at this moment, the players looked a little sad about TSM's big upset.
"Why did skt lose even to tsm! You can't just practice your lineup just because you advanced early!" adc player zven stood in the middle of the lounge, slightly breaking the defense.
Perkz is as optimistic as ever, "Looking at the bright side, if SKT practices the lineup, then in the next game against us, EDG will not only practice the lineup, but the jungler will also start as a substitute blank! If you think about it, I think I really have a chance to beat EDG!"
"How to do it? If you can line up without being knocked down by Mika, it will be considered a success?" Zven said to the mid laner.
Although he knew that any mid laner in the world today would be considered successful if he did not fall behind Sakura Girl by thirty bucks in the lane, but after personally experiencing the experience of his own mid lane being defeated by the lane, and then the mid lane disadvantage quickly spreading in three lanes, it was still difficult for Zven to accept that the mid laner was defeated by the lane.
The fact that the gap between single and mid lane is bigger than the gap between silver and gold...
"I'm super. You don't have to believe me, but you have to believe in Mika. She admits that I have the potential to compete with her!" Perkz was enlightened by Sakura Girl's Twitter, and now he really feels that he has the potential to become a top middle schooler.
With his ability alone, he is just one game away from leaving a mark in the history of League of Legends.
…
Maybe perkz is not the top mid laner.
But he was right about one thing.
Edg is indeed planning to experiment with the top lane single belt system like SKT in the next two games.
As the group stage progressed, the msi version became clearer.
There are three paths for the top laner, the tank support hero headed by Shen Galio, the ap lane laner represented by Kennen Rambo and Kled, and the top laner Murloc who is used alone to counter Rambo Kennen.
.
The former is a system that top teams can basically master, but the most troublesome and difficult thing to use in this MSI is the top lane single belt system.
Moreover, in the first round, each team banned Kennen by default, resulting in basically no opportunity to practice Kennen's system. Therefore, in the second round, it is very necessary for the teams with a points advantage to bring out Kennen.
Otherwise, in the critical stage of the knockout round, the opponent's BP changes the formation and releases Kennen, but it is of no use at all. Or, if you don't have the confidence to choose, giving Kennen to the opponent will not only lose the game, but also greatly affect the follow-up.
Contest.
But before discussing the top laner, everyone in the EDG lounge was overjoyed to see SKT lose an upset.
Coach Abramovich, who was originally planning to play a playoff with SKT for the top spot, couldn't help but smile and sigh when he saw TSM defeat SKT, "It's a good thing for us that SKT lost this game, ah~~
I’m not glad that we may not have to play an extra round, and playing one less game is not necessarily a good thing, but I’m glad that SKT exposed a lot of problems in this round!”
The factory director smiled evilly, "Let's go on the road, right? I've noticed a long time ago that their top laner Huni has been infected with too many habits of the North American competition. He often loses touch with the team or leads the lane without vision."
"That's right, SKT's current top lane single belt system is far behind Duke's last year!" Abramovich nodded in agreement.
Then he stopped smiling and looked at his watch, "So mouse, you should also study Huni's situation carefully, not to imitate him, but to use this as a warning to avoid being like him."
"Just got it, let skt take a look at our top laner Kennen!" Mixia also shouted out with great energy.
The conversation in the lounge immediately shifted to the upcoming duel with g2.
…
The two teams briefly waited for the time to pass.
To the field bp.
EDG got the lineup of top laner Kennen, jungler Lee Sin, mid laner Karma, adc Mouse and auxiliary Tahm Kench.
G2 selected top laner Shen, jungler Cuishen, mid laner Syndra, adc Hanbing and auxiliary Nami.
Looking at the lineup alone, the combination of edg is even more outrageous than skt, which upset the team.
It's okay to say that the top lane jungler is the most cunning Mika who chose Karma for mixing, and the bottom lane is a combination that looks like an inverse version at first glance.
Not only perkz thinks this is a good opportunity to become a dark horse!
The North American audience, who fully expected edg to defeat g2 so that tsm could continue to advance, were even more anxious to watch.
[Edg is not deliberately trying to eliminate tsm actors!]
[It must be a problem with the race knights. Mika wiped her hands after the first round and asked Riot to give a warning after the game. This time, she deliberately sent g2 to win so that the race knights would be eliminated! 】
[This is all tsm’s fault. It would have been better if I had known better not to buy a racial knight! Why didn’t you spend a lot of money to buy mika? 】
[Mika doesn’t want it! Mika is not that disrespectful of competition ethics!]
