Chapter 236 Post-match interview with the final appointment
Chapter 236 Post-match interview, final appointment
"Won the entire group stage."
In the commentary box, Wawa exclaimed: "EDG is in great shape. They can still achieve this kind of results in a death group like Group A..."
"To be honest, I didn't expect it."
Miller took a deep breath, filled with emotions.
LPL, has never had such glory.
Crush Benwan, beat North America violently, and beat the Triple Crown team SKT...
It is no exaggeration to say that when EDG was assigned to Group A, most people positioned EDG to qualify second in the group, and no one believed they could qualify first.
But now, EDG not only qualified first in the group, but also won the group.
"Some people say that EDG has created miracles..." Miller said solemnly: "But I don't agree. EDG can reach this point not by luck or miracles, but by strength.
Although it is only the group stage, at least at this moment, EDG has achieved its goal."
Baby said loudly: "The game is 6/0, I can play even if I play. Please give EDG your warmest applause, okay?"
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
Following the explanation, countless spectators in the audience applauded and cheered, waving the cheering sticks in their hands crazily.
"Too strong!"
"Congratulations to EDG for qualifying first. Now the three LPL brothers are together."
"Haha, there is no civil war in the top eight. They will directly shave their heads for the LCK. It will be a civil war in the Bird's Nest LPL."
"This is our most promising year yet."
In the live broadcast room, viewers began to send comments.
After EDG determined that they would qualify first in the group, everyone turned their attention to the quarterfinals.
Because the three LPL teams all qualify first in their group, and according to the rules of the first place in the group playing the second place in other groups, the three LPL teams will not meet in the quarterfinals.
This is undoubtedly a good sign for the LPL.
So far, everything is developing in a favorable direction for LPL.
Originally, before the game, everyone had confidence in the LPL winning the championship, but not very much.
Now, everyone feels that the situation has begun to favor the LPL, or perhaps, the LPL is destined to win the championship this year.
…
"It's time to get off work, brothers."
"Five kills for a treat, Ye Zi."
"Duoduo, it turns out this is your purpose."
The junior student shrugged: "If you don't invite me, I'll kill you five times next time."
"Please, please," Yezi said quickly, "It's just a meal, I'll treat everyone to breakfast."
breakfast?
Everyone was stunned, what can we have for breakfast?
Steamed buns, soy milk, fried dough sticks?
Thinking of this, several EDG players twitched their mouths.
Damn, this is the first time I heard about inviting people to dinner and breakfast.
Meikou couldn't help but said: "Zi Zi, you are the richest in our team, so eating breakfast is not your card."
The factory director said quietly: "It seems that Duoduo is still merciful."
Yezi: "..."
After a few jokes, the referee lady behind prompted several people to go and shake hands.
"Let's go, let's go."
Everyone stood up and walked straight to the SKT player bench.
This is the most exciting time in the game.
Shaking hands after winning the game, killing people can also be heart-wrenching, especially seeing the opponent's unwillingness to lose the game... the pleasure is doubled.
Come to the SKT player bench.
I saw several SKT players looking at the screen with blank expressions, not even noticing the arrival of the EDG players for the first time.
Obviously, they haven't recovered from the loss.
After a moment, several SKT players woke up from a dream and stood up to shake hands.
The two sides are actually quite familiar with each other, but now one of the members of the two teams is smiling brightly, while the other is looking embarrassed. In contrast, there is an inexplicable sense of joy.
It was Yezi's turn to shake hands with Faker. Faker took a deep look at Yezi with complicated eyes.
After several defeats, it was hard for Faker not to look at the smiling young player in front of him.
After one glance, Faker turned his attention to his junior, and his expression softened.
"Nacan, you did a good job. When do you have time... to get together?"
There is no need to talk about the communication between Faker and his younger brother.
On the other side, Bang shook hands with Ye Zi and said with a smile: "Very strong."
Ye Zi grinned and said: "You too."
"See you in the finals." Bang patted Ye Zi on the shoulder: "Whoever wins will get a treat."
"ok."
The two are both top AD players, and after several encounters, they already have a feeling of sympathy for each other.
Personally speaking, the relationship between Yezi and Bang is much better than that of other people in SKT.
The handshake ends.
Looking at Ye Zi's leaving figure, Bang seemed to see himself when he just debuted.
Confidence, enthusiasm... But now, he can no longer find the feeling he had when he first played the game.
No matter whether the team loses or wins, he doesn't have any trouble in his heart.
This state may not be a good thing for a professional player.
"This man is really strong."
On the side, Wolf couldn't help but say something.
Now, Wolf also recognizes Yates' strength.
Defeating them once can be called luck, but beating them over and over again is a bit unreasonable.
"This year's World Championship is a bit interesting." Bang smiled slightly: "Wouldn't it be boring if we kept crushing them."
"That's true." Wolf: "There are wins and losses in games, and we just need to win the most critical games."
"Let's go, KKoma will probably go crazy again when we get back."
Speaking of this, Bang's face became a little ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Xiba, it seems that your vacation is in vain."
Although SKT successfully qualified, the second place result in the group was significantly lower than SKT's expectations, so... additional training is inevitable.
Thinking of this, all the SKT players felt a little uneasy, and it was even more uncomfortable than losing the game.
…
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission]
[The mission reward has been distributed, please check the host]
In my mind, a series of system prompts came.
Ye Zi just glanced at it and didn't look any further.
The mission rewards were not much, but in comparison, Yezi looked forward to the rest time that followed.
After all, professional players are not robots. Continuous high-intensity training and competition are too much for anyone.
Now that the group stage is over, the team will also have a period of adjustment.
During this period, although it is impossible to take a complete rest, the intensity will definitely be much lower than now.
Return to the backstage lounge.
As soon as he entered the door, everyone in the EDG backstage lounge rushed towards him.
"Nice! Ness!"
Abu's face cracked with laughter, and his words were incoherent. Except for Ness, they were just some inexplicable Martian language that he probably couldn't understand himself.
There is naturally a reason why Abu is so excited.
After the group stage, he found that the outside world's reputation for EDG was rapidly picking up.
For the club, the importance of external opinions is self-evident.
Even if a team can continue to attract fans, even if it cannot win the championship, it is still acceptable.
After all, what the club wants is not the championship, but traffic revenue.
After returning to their seats, everyone's excitement gradually cooled down.
Although a complete victory in the group is something to be happy about, it is in the past after all, and now the team still has to focus on the quarterfinals.
Abramovich: "In the quarterfinals... we will play against the second-place teams from other groups, which are MSF, FNC and SSG, one of these three."
Everyone nodded.
According to the rule that the same group cannot meet, EDG and SKT can only meet in the finals.
Yates thought for a moment.
At present, the situation is more complicated than he imagined.
In his impression, EDG was eliminated this year. Now if EDG qualify as the first in the group, then some things in his memory will completely lose their effect.
In other words, the next road is a new and unknown one, and the final result depends on them.
"I think as long as we don't play against Samsung, our team has a great advantage." Yezi said: "Although FNC and MSF are not weak, their hard power is a bit behind us. There is still suspense in BO1, and there is no suspense in Bo5."
"Yes, Ye Zi is just as I thought."
Abramovich said: "After qualifying first in the group, it will be much easier for us to play in the quarterfinals.
Taking this opportunity, everyone can relax a little, but don’t be careless. After all, it is not easy for us to get to where we are today. If we are still in the top eight..."
At this point, everyone present laughed.
The top eight has become a lingering curse for EDG. If it is still the top eight this time, let alone the audience, even they themselves will not be able to accept it.
While speaking, a sudden change appeared on the screen.
MVP——little cannon.
There is no doubt that with no solution data, a small cannon that demolished towers and got five kills in the matchup, he deserved to get this MVP, there is no problem.
At the same time, the EDG bottom lane duo was invited to be interviewed after the game.
…
In the interview booth, Ye Zimei is already in place.
Today, the host is still Yu Shuang. After a classic opening remarks, the interview officially started.
Yu Shuang: "After defeating SKT, EDG also qualified first with a complete victory in the group. How do you two feel now?"
Meikou: "I'm very happy. Being able to win against SKT has made us more confident. This shows that everyone's efforts have paid off."
After speaking, the microphone was handed to Yates.
Yates said: "I'm also very happy, but after all, it's the group stage, and winning the group stage doesn't feel like anything. I can only say that we are a small step forward from our ultimate goal, and there is still a long way to go.
Next, please continue to support us."
"Support! Always support God Z!"
"The fight has been perfect."
"As long as EDG can win the championship, the skins will be sold like crazy!"
As soon as Yezi finished speaking, all the audience responded one after another, showing unparalleled enthusiasm.
They are not talking nonsense. The LPL has been suppressed for so many years. If EDG can win the championship in such a special year as S7, it is definitely not a boast to buy the skin. Never underestimate the enthusiasm and purchasing power of the Chinese people.
If a certain fruit and a certain product are so expensive, wouldn’t the sales of a new product be in the millions?
Yu Shuang continued to ask: "In this group stage, EDG successfully defeated SKT twice and maintained an advantage in the bottom lane. How did they achieve this against the SKT bottom lane duo?"
Meikou said with a smile: "The main reason is that our AD is too strong and we can overpower the opponent."
"Don't mess around, just set the rhythm, right?" Yezi spat, and then said: "Actually, it's nothing. In terms of strength, we are not much better than SKT's bottom lane, but tactically our bottom lane has a higher priority than SKT's bottom lane.
Too many.
Whether it’s BP tilt or resource tilt in the game, SKT’s bottom lane is completely incomparable to us.
Therefore, it is normal if you can suppress it, and it is abnormal if you cannot suppress it."
"Hey! God Z didn't hack any of the players?"
"This is not the God Z I know."
"What does black mean? According to God Z, it means telling the truth."
"But it is true that God Z never makes a fool of himself. It seems that God Z recognizes the strength of SKT's bottom lane."
"Absolutely, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter what, SKT's bottom lane is not something that can be beaten by ordinary bottom lanes."
Outside, the audience started heated discussions.
In the SKT team, the SKT bottom lane duo couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Yezi's answer.
"He didn't criticize me." Bang said with a smile: "I thought he was going to say that I was too good."
Wolf: "I think we played well and the problem wasn't big."
"..."
Kkoma glanced at the two of them, quite speechless. After losing the game together, you two are just like normal people. You still think you played well?
But now kkoma themselves don’t know where SKT lost, so they can only wait to go back and review the game carefully to see if they can find some problems.
Interview booth, the interview continues.
Yu Shuang: “Can you comment on your opponent?”
Yates: "A very strong bottom laner, but his style is more teamfighting, and his lane is not as top-notch as teamfighting."
Yu Shuang said with a smile: "As a newcomer, God Z has shown super strength in just one year, and the running-in with sister Kou is also quite smooth. What's the secret?"
"As for the secret..." Ye Zi thought for a moment and said, "The secret is to practice more."
"..."
As soon as these words came out, many clubs who wanted to hear some secrets were immediately disappointed and cursed Yezi in their hearts as a little fox.
In their opinion, what Yezi said was a lie.
If more practice can solve the problem, they will adjust the training time for the team members to sixteen hours tomorrow.
But in fact, Yezi didn't lie, he really practiced it.
However, he has a weapon in his hand and can train in his dream.
In other words, his training time in one day is equivalent to two or even three days of training for others.
Moreover, it is still the top training method and game understanding. If you can't practice it like this, then Yezi should stop being a professional and go home to raise pigs.
Meikou: “It’s really a matter of practicing more. We play frequently throughout the year, both during live broadcasts and during off-air broadcasts.
If we play together often, we will get used to each other faster."
Yu Shuang: "During the competition, Xiaopao also got his Nth pentakill in this world championship. The junior student was nearby at the time. Were you panicked?"
"A bit." Ye Zi said with a smile: "This guy always steals five kills from me, and just now he used this to blackmail me into treating him to dinner."
Barrage——
"Haha, that's it."
"I didn't expect you to be like this."
"The relationship between God Z and the team members is really good."
"Who wouldn't like a team member with a handsome and sweet-tongued personality like God Z?"
"Redefining sweetness."
The audience prefers to hear such more personal topics, especially those with a harmonious relationship. After all, if a team is harmonious, fans will also feel the same. If a team is always at odds with each other, fans will be upset.
Worrying about whether the player you like will get a headshot, whether he will become a jade, etc...
Yu Shuang: "After the game, I saw Bang was talking to you. What did you say?"
"Um?"
Everyone became more energetic and asked curiously: "What did you say?"
Yates answered truthfully: "He said that if we reach the finals, whoever wins will have a treat."
After a pause, Yezi said with a smile: "It seems that I can't escape the fate of treating guests."
