The format of the Summer Split is the same as that of the Spring Split. The twelve teams are divided into two groups. During the regular season of the Summer Split, there is still a double round-robin within the group and a single round-robin competition outside the group. The top four in each group advance to the playoffs.
During the entire regular season, each team will play sixteen games, and the competition format is bo3, with best-of-three games.
The regular season schedule lasts for ten weeks. Since Riot Games added a new intercontinental competition in July this year, which takes up a lot of time, the regular season will be delayed for a long time and will end in late August.
The grouping situation for the Summer Split is:
Group a: we, edg, im, ig, snake, dan.
Group b: rng, nb, omg, jdg, lgd, sng.
In addition, it was announced earlier that the promotion and relegation system will be abolished in this year's summer split.
According to the official schedule, the opening match will start between two all-China classes, and will pit rng against omg.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the competition scene was on the ninth floor of Super Brand Plaza.
After an opening performance, as the audience cheered, all members of the two teams appeared, and the game was about to begin.
rng is the runner-up in the spring split, and omg is the fourth in the spring split. Both sides are obviously determined to win the first game.
The match commentators are Guan Zeyuan and Rita.
The starting five players sent by Mingzhe today are memory, world6, icon, Sima Laothi, and Xiao Wu.
In the first game, omg chose Hanbing and Lulu in the bottom lane, which was obviously a tool-man style of play.
The upper and middle junglers have respectively taken the Green Steel Shadow, the Lion Dog, and the Trickery Enchantress. It is obvious that the upper and middle junglers will be the main focus.
OMG's jungler World6 has a delicate appearance and is nicknamed World's sister by fans.
Although World Girl looks cute, his jungle style has always been aggressive, and the one he plays the most is a carnivorous jungler.
But as soon as the game started, omg fell into a passive position.
rng's bottom lane combination is a female policeman and a fireman. During the laning phase, Ma Ge and Xiaowu were quite uncomfortable, and they were defeated very early in the tower.
Qinggang Ying, who was in the top lane of Memory, was facing Letme's Prince. After his e-skill came empty, the prince directly provoked a counterattack with eq.
Then the prince's big move forced the Qinggang Shadow to appear. The prince chased him to the bottom of the tower. After the flag CD was ready, he pretended to turn around and suddenly turned around and took the Qinggang Shadow away.
Xiaohu's Galio ultimate move was used on the prince, and the prince walked out of the tower with a hundred blood drops, without even blinking.
The poodle that came to support was squatted by the blind man from Xiangguo on the triangle grass on the top road. He cooperated with Galio and killed the poodle directly.
The top and bottom lanes are all at a disadvantage, and omg is directly passive on the scene.
Fortunately, in the middle stage, the icon's enchantress appeared and stole the sight of the fire man twice, which stabilized the rhythm.
However, at 25 minutes, just after Guan Zeyuan finished praising Enchantress, Qinggang Shadow and Enchantress went down to grab Galio. Because Qinggang Shadow had two skills in the air and we, he was dragged by Pure Galio until his teammates arrived.
Both died.
After completing a one-for-two rng, he directly attacked the baron, while omg once again sacrificed Nosuke's life in order to grab the baron.
After that, the well-developed policewoman and several others, armed with the big dragon buff, pushed away omg's base crystal in one wave.
The first game lasted less than 28 minutes.
Backstage, Lu Chen was sitting next to the water dispenser, looking at the blue steel shadow of memory and couldn't help but shake his head.
The second game is a plate game.
omg once again released it to the rng policewoman, and the counter position on the fifth floor chose the crocodile, giving it to the top order.
After World Girl helped twice, the crocodile gained a considerable advantage.
However, this advantage did not expand and turn into a victory. The Ancient Dragon Group dragged on for forty minutes. After a wave of three for four, the icon's clockwork was dragged back home by the prince, and the base was stolen by Ekko TP.
0 to 2, omg lost the opening match.
Losing the first match affected morale somewhat, but after all, rng was the runner-up in the Spring Split, so losing to them was not a big blow.
Everyone in the club, including coach Mingzhe, is relatively optimistic.
Many omg fans on the Internet are not too pessimistic, but some people express their longing for top laner Xieyang.
...
June 10, Saturday.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, omg ushered in the second bo3 game of the regular season, and the opponent was jdg.
jdg is a newly promoted team.
This bo3 game, from all the members of the OMG club to the fans of the team, all believed that it must be won to clear away the haze of being zero-blocked by rng the day before yesterday.
In this game, omg's tactical focus returned to the bottom lane.
However, JDG's bottom lane combination, Loken and Lumao, although not well-known at this time, is quite strong. Ma Ge and Xiaowu did not take advantage of the bottom lane.
In the first game, Memory's Shen faced JDG's top laner AD Kenan. He had no choice but to be led through by Kenan in both the upper and lower lines.
He was always in the lead, but he lost the first game with great frustration.
In the second game, Mingzhe made personnel adjustments and substituted jungler jiekou for world6.
Jiekou player's style is relatively stable, and he plays a little more herbivorous jungle.
All three lines in this set were played very smoothly, and the game was won in less than 25 minutes.
In the third game, jdg was at a disadvantage right from the start.
However, jdg mid laner doinb player Kassadin has always developed ahead of his time.
As we all know, Kassadin's level 16 base exploded.
In the end, Kassadin, who was 11-0-5, led JDG to a successful comeback with an immortal and amazing record.
omg lost to jdg one to two.
If we talk about the opening game, losing to the Spring Split runner-up rng is still expected.
Now, losing to a newly promoted team is shocking.
At the end of the first week of competition, omg gained nothing.
...
omg club base.
The atmosphere in the training room was a bit gloomy.
Mingzhe is taking all the players to review the two games this week, and Lu Chen is among them.
After the review was over and the training was over, coach Mingzhe still showed his gentle side.
He encouraged his young team members and let go of their psychological baggage.
After all, the opponent Suning team in next week's game is also a newly promoted team. As long as they perform steadily, there will be no problem in winning the game.
Therefore, Mingzhe didn't make too many adjustments, and everyone continued to train at the usual pace.
Returning to his corner position and playing solo, Lu Chen still didn't join the Korean server due to hero training, and Mingzhe didn't have much time to pay attention to him now.
Lu Chen's live broadcasts are irregular now, and he broadcasts them every now and then. However, during the live broadcast, he will play the heroes he is good at, and after the broadcast, he will practice other heroes.
Therefore, the evaluation of this ID in Korean server is divided into two levels.
Sometimes the hanbok is on the thigh, and sometimes the hanbok is a ghost.
Lu Chen didn't care about the opinions of the outside world.
But after two consecutive losses, many omg fans who originally had high expectations before the start of the summer split couldn't stand the two-game losing streak at the beginning and began to blame the players.
Gradually, with the help of some of Lu Chen's fans, a voice emerged online.
