Chapter 301 If the team doesn't work hard, the top eight will beat the brothers?
However, there are only a few people who gush about OMG.
Anyway, omg has also entered the top eight.
You know, in the first two global finals, the best result of lpl was only the top eight.
The last time all three LPL teams entered the quarterfinals was three years ago.
In this year's local world championship, the LPL has an unprecedented unity atmosphere, and everyone still mainly supports the LPL team.
We were in the same group as the defending champion SKT, and we didn't get first place in the group, so there's nothing to be too harsh on.
Although in the last round, I underestimated the enemy and chose a snakeskin lineup to lose to the lms team, which looked a bit unsightly.
But then again, it doesn't have much substantive impact.
On Wanwan's side, on the underworld forum PTT, where e-sports is often discussed, many Wanwan viewers expressed some joking expressions, thanking OMG for sending one, which saved ahq from the tragedy of having his head shaved.
...
From the end of the group stage to the draw ceremony of the quarter-finals, there are still dozens of minutes in between.
In just a few dozen minutes, the trend on the Internet has undergone a strange change.
A comment spread rapidly on the Internet in a short period of time.
That is - if the team doesn't work hard, the top eight will beat their brothers!
Who else could this be talking about? It's obviously omg.
The draw for the top eight in the global finals only follows two principles.
One is that the first place in the group will draw the second place in the group, and the other is that two teams that qualify in the same group cannot be in the same division.
omg is second in Group A, and its opponents in the quarterfinals are the firsts in the other three groups.
The other three groups ranked first, namely Longzhu, rng, and we.
There are two lpl teams among them.
In other words, omg has a two-thirds chance that the quarterfinals will be a civil war against teams also from the lpl.
Then a comment like this appeared on the Internet - if the team doesn't work hard, the top eight will beat the brothers.
In just a few dozen minutes from the end of the group stage to the draw, this statement was widely circulated on the Internet. This is obviously the result of the promotion of trolls.
He really seizes every opportunity to do marketing and win fans, and even the teams in the competition area use such malicious remarks to stomp on him.
This is obviously because OMG deliberately lost to Wanwan in Yin Yang Wei Qi, just to deliberately get second place in the group, but fortunately they played an LPL team in the quarterfinals.
But if you think about it carefully, is the probability of two-thirds very high?
Not high!
The other one-third probability is the No. 1 seed in the LCK, the Dragon Ball team that is the favorite to win this S-tournament.
Omg you are so stuffed and have nothing to do, why are you betting on the two-thirds probability?
In fact, it was the last one that underestimated the enemy, and the waves were too big.
The logic of this is easy to understand, but with the help of the trolls, many viewers actually believed this statement and felt that OMG wanted to deliberately fight a civil war in the quarterfinals.
Especially many RNG fans who have been brainwashed by marketing, the more they think about it, the more they feel that this is the truth.
You omg are the champions of this year's LPL Summer Split. You just defeated rng in the LPL finals more than a month ago.
Isn't this wave just about bullying rng's top laner who is not as strong as you, using your top laner to catch rng and bully him severely!
Damn, you are really an expert in civil war and an outsider in foreign war!
However, OMG deliberately placed second in the group to fight for rng in the quarterfinals?
This kind of statement is even more retarded.
Not to mention that this is a serious game, even if it is gambling, which gambler have you ever seen, with only a one-third chance of hitting, just shoot?
Isn’t this stupid?
Hey, many rng fans actually believed it after being hyped up by trolls with ulterior motives.
There are also many melon-eating people who, although they don’t think so, still feel that OMG just wants to start a civil war.
I have to say, this is the power of marketing!
Many people who do not fully understand the information are deceived.
Quite a few of these people who have been deceived, even if they come into contact with the truth one day, are not willing to believe it at all.
Because denying one’s past spiritual investment is also a cost loss.
Loss aversion is just human nature!
...
After being labeled as "experts in civil war and amateurs in foreign wars", omg fans were dissatisfied again.
omg's previous two S games were defeated by the civil war and eliminated by the royal family from the LPL region.
Since you, rng, have always said that you want to inherit the Royal Family’s two second place finishes in S, let’s start with S3, the first time the Royal Family participated in the World Championship.
From s3 to s7, in the global finals, except for fnc, rng won once in bo5, the other bo5 wins were all lpl civil wars.
In the s game, let’s not talk about the bo5 defeat against the Hanguo team. After all, the opponent is really strong.
But in the past few years, your rng has never lost a single LPL civil war in the S game.
Who is the king of the civil war?
In short, due to the interference of the navy, cracks have appeared in the atmosphere of unity within the lpl since the start of this S competition.
A considerable number of fans from various brands have already started to get angry with each other, or directly started to quarrel with each other.
...
Jiangcheng group stage competition venue.
Backstage omg lounge.
omg everyone has just packed up their things and hasn’t left the venue yet.
The draw ceremony for the top eight was about to begin, so they simply waited to see the draw before leaving the venue.
Anyway, the drawing process for the top eight is very short, only a few minutes.
In the lounge, the OMG team leader held his mobile phone and frowned, "Public opinion seems to be very unfavorable to us. Netizens are scolding us!"
Hearing this, Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "How do you say that?"
"It's not about being second in the group."
Mingzhe said quickly: "It's my fault for being too indulgent. It's none of the team members' business."
He obviously thought that netizens were still complaining about losing to ahq.
Lu Chen shook his head, "Did anyone say that we lost the last game on purpose?"
"Yes, and the noise is very loud." The team leader said solemnly: "Now people say that we are [the team does not work hard, the top eight will fight against brothers], and they say that we deliberately ranked second in the group and wanted to compete in the LPL team in the quarterfinals.
"
Poof!
Lu Chen laughed out loud. The slogan also rhymed, so the brainwashing effect was probably good.
But the team leader couldn't laugh, and said with a grimace: "I'm under a lot of pressure now, and my boss just sent me a message asking about this!"
"It's nothing. No matter whether our top eight draws an LPL team or not, as long as we can keep winning, these rumors will be self-explanatory and are all bullshit." Lu Chen said calmly.
"Okay! Come on, everyone, Yangcheng." The team leader also quickly adjusted his mood.
Indeed, in e-sports, only performance is the last word, and everything else is a crooked approach.
In this global finals, four bo5 games from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals will be held in Yangcheng.
The two games from the semi-finals to the finals were held in Shanghai.
The finals will be held at the Bird's Nest Stadium in the Imperial Capital.
...
In just a few dozen minutes, amidst the noisy online LPL fans, the draw for the top eight began.
