The schedule will change slightly after the group stage enters the second round. The matches in the same group will be played within one day, and the promotion places of each group will be directly determined.
On October 8, the Group A match started first.
In the end, g2 and sn qualified together with a record of 4-2. Suning defeated g2 in the playoff and became the No. 1 seed in Group A.
And TL's elimination with a record of 3-3 also means that North America may have to go back to the entire group stage this year. After all, the conditions for the other two NA teams to qualify are more severe than the other.
On October 9th, the second round of the group stage of Group B begins.
KT is still in full swing, coming up to kill Psg and Rge, waiting for the second round matchup with JD.
JD.com was the first to overturn before it met KT, and was provoked by PSG.
However, because the first round was really free, even if Psg defeated JD.com and Rge in the second round, it could still only get a record of 2-4.
As JD defeated Rge to win its third game, Group B’s promotion situation was already clear before the final game started.
Psg and Rge were eliminated early, and JD.com lost to Psg in the second round. Even if they defeated KT in the last game, they could only become the second seed in Group B with 4-2 points.
So, the last game has nothing to do with qualifying situation, it is a battle of dignity.
Before the game, JD.com’s players were sitting around in the lounge listening to the head coach Hongmi’s tactics.
Although this game can no longer change the qualifying situation, JD.com’s players are all holding their breath and want to wash away the shame of the first round.
After all, being pressed to the ground and being rubbed would not look good on anyone.
The King of Cats even said this on the commentary desk at that time: I don’t know if it’s appropriate to say this, but KT’s game against JD was a bit like a replica of our previous wild card game with Taobo... and it seemed to be even worse.
a little.
《JD.com was treated like a wild card by KT.》
This topic became a hot topic on the first day of the group stage.
It is conceivable that JD.com, which is often scolded in the LPL, has been criticized again.
JD’s players and coaches were naturally holding their breath and wanted to get back on the field.
After all, they are the second seed in the LPL. They have been competing with Taobao for the championship all year long. They cannot completely lose it in the World Championship, otherwise they will never lose the title of inferior horse for the rest of their lives.
“Look for opportunities to strangle the opponent’s rhythm points, and we can’t mess up when playing KT. We follow our own rhythm.”
“They like to take advantage of the online advantage to snowball, so you must follow the layout to catch their tendency to change lanes.”
“Minghao, please roam around more to find opportunities, and don’t tangle too much with your opponents online.”
“Remember, we must seize the points where we have an advantage and then adapt accordingly on the court.”
A group of Qianjin brothers raised their ears and listened carefully to the interpreter conveying the coach's arrangements.
Hongmi coach is very good at analyzing and planning the game in advance, apart from being a good BP. Jingdong players are very convinced of this Korean coach.
Furthermore, most people really can’t imitate Hongmi’s coaching ideas, even if they left behind the tactical framework. After Hongmi moved to the new team, all the old clubs exploded without exception.
Let’s not talk about the three-star rating of s4. Later, vg, LgD, and we all achieved explosive results in a short period of time after Hongmi left. This also illustrates the power of Hongmi coach from the side.
Hongmi is also very good at studying its opponents. After being beaten violently in the first round, the entire JD coaching staff studied the video of KT’s group stage over and over again.
Performed in-depth analysis from the opponent's habits to eye positioning and command tendencies.
JD.com attaches so much importance to this game that has nothing to do with the qualifying situation. In addition to the players holding their breath and the possibility of encountering KT later, the club's management also puts a little pressure on them.
After all, JD team owner Lan Lotus has been in the spotlight and been scolded the most for shouting out the slogan of inferior horses, and the management also hopes that the team will give it a try.
"Come on, come on! Let go of your baggage and fight hard!"
“Come on! I won two points from Brother Orange yesterday at the top of the canyon. I am in good condition. I have a feeling that I can win today.”
There was a hint of determination on the Duke's chubby face. Yesterday, RanK won against Lin Cheng twice in a row. Although he relied on a little help from Wild Dad, overall the Duke is very confident now.
From October 3rd to October 9th, I waited for a whole week.
Just waiting for an opportunity, I want to take a breath, not to prove that I am great.
I want to tell people that I must get back what I lost.
On the other hand, the atmosphere in KT's lounge is much more relaxed.
Lin Cheng put on his headphones and closed his eyes to relax. The song "The Story of My Past" by Iu was playing in the headphones.
Since the last time he heard Park Ji-yeon sing this song softly, he added it to his playlist, listening to it when he was relaxing, and occasionally when he had insomnia.
Bono squatted in the corner and concentrated on playing Lianliankan. It is said that this can make him excited.
Tu privately is eating Yang Shengjian.
It is already nine o'clock in the evening, and the team members who have not finished eating are really hungry, so Tu private doesn't care about his history of being frequently poisoned by raw fried food.
Anyway, we have already qualified for the top spot in the group ahead of time. No matter how poisonous Xiao Yang Shengjian is, it will be like that.
However, everyone else just ate something to fill their stomachs before, and Tusin looked like he was about to finish the large portion of fried food, which made Lin Cheng worried about the state of his own assistant later.
As for ai Ming, he just clicked on the side and didn't care about the dining experience he was assisting.
By the time the players from both sides took the stage, countless viewers had already locked their eyes on the broadcast through various channels.
Chinese stream commentary seats.
Since there is a gen·g competition in the group tomorrow, the college is recharging its energy today. The three commentators in the commentary box today are Yutong and Hitomi.
Remember: "Come on! Although it has nothing to do with the qualifying situation, I believe that there are still countless LPL viewers watching this game to see if JD.com can regain its place."
Hitomi Hitomi: “After all, the next two teams will meet in the finals, and JD.com definitely hopes to defeat their opponents as much as possible.
And regardless of whether it is JD.com or not, all the teams that have a chance to qualify now may be studying KT, because no matter which team they meet in the knockout round, they will be very stressed."
Yutong: "I think to put it bluntly now, JD.com is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. Since MS, no LPL team has won even a small game from KT. We also hope that JD.com can break KT
The winning streak ended KT’s momentum.
The so-called "strengthening and then declining" is like this for some teams. They may have been winning in the past, but once they lose a game, their status begins to decline significantly."
I remember: "Speaking of which, today KT is also going to hit the record of complete victory in the group stage. Last time, coach Ha Ria led Longzhu to complete the victory in the S7 group stage, and then entered the knockout round and went home at a very fast speed. I wonder if there will be any shadow?"
