Chapter 2282 Malrang: I will help you get rid of TES!
Chapter 2240 Malrang: I will help you get rid of TES!
The dust of the qualifying round has settled, and according to the avoidance principle of teams in the same division, the grouping situation of the group stage has been directly determined.
Group A: KT, CFO, EDG, EG
Group B: C9, G2, T1, RNG
Group C: RGE, TES, GAM, DK
Group D: JDG, GEN·G, 100T, FNC
The ACD three groups are pretty good. They seem to be relatively clear-cut in terms of strength and weakness. The seed teams in the LCK and LPL major regions are infinitely favored by the outside world to qualify together.
This year's group of death is undoubtedly Group B.
According to the iron law that European and American teams must enter the quarterfinals every year, the LCK and LPL teams that entered Group B are the third and fourth seeds respectively. This group seems to have a good chance for Europe and the United States.
Although T1 will automatically be favored by two ranks if it enters the World Championship, RNG has a record of being eliminated in the group stage.
In addition, the grievances between these four teams are endless.
C9 and G2, as the light of North America and the king of Europe, are the cards of the two divisions respectively. The battle between EU and NA continues.
The father-son relationship between T1 and RNG has been going on for a long time, with four BO5s and two BO1s. Facing T1, which still has a big game with 0 winning rate, can RNG rebel once?
Just this year?
Although Zhuge Liang may not take Meng Huo seriously, in Meng Huo's eyes, Zhuge Liang is an old enemy!
RNG and G2 also have an old dispute. In the S8 season when RNG was extremely close to reaching the top, it was the Black Warrior who stepped on RNG and stepped on the top eight.
Similarly, T1 also had a lot of grievances with G2. In the year of S9, T1 tried to recruit a large number of players to form the Galaxy Battleship for the first time. As a result, it was eliminated by the top four of G2 in the MSI and S games.
If it weren't for G2 that year, it would be impossible for Faker to win four championships.
It was also that year that G2 eliminated T1's meritorious coach and dunker, which started an era of two consecutive years of palace fighting for T1.
In addition, Berserker, the AD player in the C9 team, came from the T1 youth training. Together with Oner and Zeus, they once dominated the youth training academy competition as teammates, which is also a topic of the matchup.
Calculated in this way, except for RNG and C9 who have little grievances, almost all teams in Group B have their own grievances and grudges between each other.
There has never been a group in the history of the S competition with such complicated grievances.
The audience can't wait.
There are three days between the end of the qualifying rounds and the start of the group stage. On the 14th and 15th, KT will continue to have training matches with other teams during the day, and players will practice individually in the evening.
In addition to ranking, Riot Games also specially launched a super server in the US server during S12 for professional players to train.
This time, only professional players can enter the super server, which can avoid actors and tricks to the greatest extent and ensure the quality of the game environment and training.
However, after actually playing the game after the training match, Lin Cheng didn’t like the super server very much.
It’s so troublesome to open the game!
Originally, there were only a few players in the super server. There were only players from a dozen teams playing, and not all players were online at the same time. You had to contact other players in advance.
Moreover, the super server slowly BPs according to rounds just like the competition, so it is more troublesome to start the game than the official competition.
The most important thing is that OB cannot be played on the super server. Wanwan the devil still wants to watch Lin Cheng play games.
October 16th is the last day before the start of the group stage.
The entire KT team set out early in the morning to shoot a promotional video for the first day of the group stage.
In the Empire State Building, Times Square, and the Brooklyn Bridge, the team members visited several New York landmarks and completed the filming of the promotional video near noon.
It just so happened that RGE was going to shoot a promotional video today, so Lin Cheng called Malrang to have lunch with him.
The two of them had gotten together before, but at that time it was Lin Cheng who went to the pigeons to have a meal, and this time it was Malrang who went to KT to have a meal.
Malrang has also played in the LCK for a short time, and he basically knows the old guys like KT. Even Rookie, who he has never met before, is not a stranger in the game.
However, Ji Shengxi and Malrang didn't know each other. She was parachuted to the club from KT's subsidiary in charge of culture and entertainment in 2021, when the club was already broken up.
The old team members made an appearance, and Chi Shengxi specially took a Vlog to record the dinner party.
"Jin Gencheng, if you eat more, how thin will you become?"
Malrang and Lin Cheng looked like bamboo poles standing together. If he hadn't been like this before, Lin Cheng would have almost thought that his old teammate went to Europe and was mistreated.
Malrang's character is relatively introverted, and he just smiled and ate Lin Cheng's ribs in front of the camera.
Chi Shengxi curiously asked about 0’s interesting stories within the team, and strongly encouraged Malrang to reveal Lin Cheng’s dark history.
All members of KT pricked up their ears, hoping to hear something exciting.
Malrang was very considerate and did not reveal many embarrassing things about Lin Cheng.
At most, Lin Cheng drank too much and ran out to quarrel with Maomao. In the end, he was so angry that he passed out on the roadside without any quarrel.
Seeing the weird looks in everyone's eyes, Lin Cheng pinched his neck in front of the camera.
"Don't talk nonsense! Didn't I make a noise and get knocked out? I was obviously drunk and fell asleep."
"You certainly didn't make any noise!"
Lin Cheng was dissatisfied: "Fart! If you let the cat speak human language, I won't be able to quarrel with it?"
Chi Shengxi could no longer hold back any longer.
"Tell me one more thing about Lin Cheng that impressed you the most?"
Malrang thought for a while: "The deepest impression... In 20 years, I celebrated my birthday at the club, and Lin Cheng, who was live broadcasting at night, secretly went to the live broadcast room and gave me a gift of 880,000 Korean won."
"Oh Mo? You know it was a gift from me?"
Lin Cheng's eyes widened, "Hey C! I've always opened a small account just because you don't know."
"At that time, Kim Gen Sung was so excited that he cried! I was still laughing at him because he had never seen the world, but when he received the reward from fans, he was so happy that he cried."
As a substitute, Malrang's presence in the team was very low, and there were not many fans to watch the live broadcast. When Lin Cheng secretly bought gifts and left a message of happy birthday at night, this guy buried his head in front of the camera and burst into tears.
At that time, the relationship between the entire KT team was very good.
That is to say, after Lin Cheng became the main force, the other two top laners in the team were sent to the second team. Their time together was too short compared to the others, and their relationship was not that close.
Everyone was surprised to hear that there was such an unknown thing in the team.
Malrang smiled and scratched his head, "Who asked you to write a number like 88? You are the only one around who thinks the number 8 is very auspicious."
Lin Cheng suddenly realized that 8 indeed has no special meaning to Koreans.
"Lin Cheng's salary was not high in the first year, and I felt very touched when I thought that my teammates were caring about me."
People are creatures that need emotional interaction. Just like Crown Brother was moved to tears when he saw that there were still people coming to visit him in the live broadcast room. He found that Lin Cheng, who had gone back to the dormitory early to sleep, secretly ran into the live broadcast room to wish himself a happy birthday. Malrang was
I was so moved that I burst into tears.
"Oh! What can we say about these things in the past...Kim Geun-sung!"
Lin Cheng raised his voice and put his hand around Malrang's neck, "You know you have a TES in Group C, right? Their top laner provoked me shamelessly, do you know what to do?"
Malrang nodded, raised his palm in front of him, spread his fingers, and slowly clenched them into a fist.
"I'll help you get rid of TES!"
Lin Cheng nodded with satisfaction, then put one eye in front of the camera.
