Chapter 104: Poisoned Milk List, an ice-cold machine named by a fist!
The lottery rules for the 2016 Global Finals are the same as those for the 2015 Global Finals. The 16 participating teams will be divided into 4 groups, with 4 teams in each group competing in the group stage.
Before the lottery, based on the results of the 2016 Mid-Season Invitational and season results, the 16 participating teams will be allocated to 3 lottery pools.
Each group will eventually include one Pool 1 team, two Pool 2 teams and one Pool 3 team.
In the 2016 Mid-Season M Private Championship, LCS European representative team G2 made an epic comeback and achieved a record of 2-8, which directly led to the fact that none of the three teams in the European Division could enter the first pool.
In the draw, this global finals will still adopt the same division avoidance principle, and teams in the same division will not be drawn into the same group.
At this time, the draw pools for the group stage can already be seen very clearly.
Pool 1: FW, TSM, EDG, ROX.
Pool 2: AHQ, CLG, H2K, G2, RNG, SS, SKT, SSG.
Pool No. 3: Splye, C9, INTZ, ANX.
When the lottery ceremony officially began, the four guests present came into view.
The first guest was Dy, who bid farewell to the competition in tears in 2015. When the camera showed Dy, he cheered and seemed to be planning to draw a good draw for the North American team.
The second guest, CAP JACK, is the familiar Captain Jack. On the screen, Captain Jack’s mouth is painted with bright lipstick, and he is extremely coquettish.
The third guest, the King of WE, smiled. Facing the camera, the King smiled and waved, which was much more reserved than the previous two.
The fourth guest, SCARRA, is a famous North American player with a long history. He is an ancient Dharma king and a legendary mid laner in North America.
When the two presenters signaled the lottery to begin, Captain Jack was the first to step onto the lottery table.
In Pool 1, he successively drew ROX, FW, EDG, and TSM.
These four teams directly correspond to the four groups ABCD.
Li Hao didn't feel anything unusual when he saw this.
When the foodies (Dy breasts) roll up their sleeves and stir those silver balls, the wheel of fate seems to be spinning like those balls.
He took out a round ball.
Turn the sphere away and take out the banner with the team name written inside.
Group A and Group B drew G2 and SKT successively.
Then, he drew SSG into Group C and AHQ below TSM.
Suddenly, many viewers in North America who were watching the live broadcast shouted "Yes"!
A great assist from Dys against the North American Division!
North American barrage:
"Dy breasts got a good draw for TSM, I swear I will say less bad things about him in the future."
"TSM can avoid encountering LCK teams in the group stage, and its hope of promotion will be greatly increased. Although TSM is now invincible, this is not a bad thing."
"Guys, I've opened the champagne to celebrate. TSM will qualify as the first in Group D, and the remaining teams will be defeated by their training matches."
"Haha, I'm in Los Angeles, hoping to see TSM arrive."
…
Not only the North American audience, but also the members of the North American cult who were watching the live broadcast were all smiling.
Under the camera, the foodie stuck out his tongue and made an excited face, like a general who had won a battle.
The members of the TSM team also raised their arms to celebrate and seemed to be talking to each other in the distance.
Next, the Smile King appears.
Continue to Pool 2.
CLG was drawn into Group A.
Then, a team banner with RNG written on it was rotated out of the ball with a smile.
RNG was drawn into Group B.
Looking at SKT above, everyone in the RNG club felt numb.
Fuck, sign it!
We want to go to Group D!
In the third hand, H2K was drawn into Group C.
As the No. 2 seed in Europe, Yue Lun also embarked on the road of revenge this time.
The fourth team, SS.nake team, appeared in Group D.
"Brothers, what a great draw! What a great draw!"
"A Korean team doesn't have a comfort zone in Group D."
Flandre showed her front teeth.
Gangzi joked: "You forgot, we were beaten by TSM in the training match the day before yesterday."
"Can that be the same, haha."
"..."
Finally, the old Pharaoh appeared, and four teams, ANX, C9, INTZ, and SPY, were drawn out one after another.
The final result appeared on the big screen at the scene.
Group A: ROX, G2, CLG, ANX (wild card)
Group B: FW (Flash Wolves), SKT, RNG, C9
Group C: EDG, SSG, H2K, INTZ (wild card)
Group D: TSM, AHQ, SS (Chinese snake), SPY (European snake)
…
After the host gave a brief description, the on-site lottery ceremony officially ended.
At this time, some domestic live broadcast platforms and e-sports discussion groups were very lively.
"I'm RNG, and I'm in a panic right now. SKT and FW are both easy to deal with, and there's also C9. It's not too much to call them a devilish team."
"EDG is okay, SSG and H2K are both difficult to beat, but at least we have a big wild card brother."
"The one with the greatest hope should be Snake, and I have always been optimistic about the Snake team with The King at the helm. It is obvious to all in the summer season that the Snake team with The King is definitely capable of competing for the LPL league championship!"
"Don't speak too early. I heard that after the version update, Snake's recent training results are very unsatisfactory. Each version is better than another. This sentence is learned. There are too many variables in the World Championship."
"Haha, I can only use it as a reference in the training game. Even if you control the thunder and lightning in the training game, it will be of no use."
…
The arrangement of the group was quite different from Li Hao's memory, but he didn't care.
All in all, this is a good sign for Snake.
Li Hao glanced at Gangzi and suddenly discovered a bright spot.
Group D has AHQ, and then there is the fishman.
And Snake has evil views here, ah this
Evil view + Simon =???
Could it be that you are inviting the brothers to eat fish?
Li Hao smiled evilly and stopped thinking about it.
However, Flando obviously also discovered it.
"Forbidden fish people, forbidden fish people!"
"There is Ximen in Group D. Flower Pot Man, please don't play with me. Last time you ate half of my Rambo's blood."
"Little peat kid, next time I eat fish, stay closer to me."
"Hahaha!" the team members laughed.
If a good lottery is drawn, everyone is in a good mood.
After another week of training matches, Riot Games updated the poisonous milk list on the 20th.
The poisonous milk list should not be underestimated. Nami pulled her hips and Wei Jiang shot an arrow in the opposite direction. From the emperor to Azhen, everyone is on the list.
This thing is really a bit evil.
Japan ot official page released:
"Every year's World Championship is the ultimate challenge for the best teams and teams on the planet. What we see on the court is the culmination of their efforts this year to win the championship."
"The following players have tried their best to perfect their skills in pursuit of this year's championship trophy."
"Every sword in their hands has been tempered, every spell is recited thousands of times, and every tactic is memorized in their hearts."
"They are the top 20 players who are charging towards the highest peak!"
[No.1 ROX.Smeb]
Japanese ot evaluation:
LCK spring and summer split 2 consecutive MVPs, summer split champion.
Technology, decision-making, game understanding, hero pool, and snowballing ability are all top-notch and perfect.
He has proven his ability domestically/internationally and defeated his inner demons.
With an extremely good team, success is only one step away.
…
[No.2 SKT.Faker]
Japanese ot evaluation:
When you place the undisputed number one player in history at number two on the rankings, you have to find out why he didn't reach the top.
Most of the time, he is a "lone hero" in the middle, and the jungler is not good enough.
The play style is still fierce, but when the jungler is not around, he may give out early kills.
When you gain an advantage in the middle, you can completely nullify the opponent's mid laner, no matter what hero you use.
…
[No.3 EDG.Deft]
Since joining the LPL, he has been constantly improving, especially his laning ability.
You can use any ADC hero, and the coordination with Meiko is excellent. The bottom lane is the absolute core of EDG and the key to victory.
The stability is extremely high, even if you use late-stage heroes, you can still make waves in the early stage.
At the highest point of his career, the absolute pinnacle!
…
Further down, there are ClearLove, Peanut (Little Peanut), Bang, Golla, Pilsen, Pray (Rat King)
What surprised Li Hao was that he was actually on the list.
Moreover, it was ranked tenth.
…
[No.10 SS.TheKing]
Japanese OT evaluation: A veteran of the 2nd era, he has wasted several seasons.
After joining SS this season and serving as the mid laner, his career exploded. With his strong laning ability and support awareness, he led SS all the way from the LPL league.
Throughout the summer games, his performance in all games was extremely stable, and it was difficult to find mistakes. Many official commentators called him a 'cold machine', who often carried out ruthless killings. He was the LPL summer solo kill king, always solving problems at a super fast speed.
opponent.
Although there have been injuries recently, his personal ability cannot be ignored.
Taking into account various factors, it was ranked 10th.
…
The poisonous milk list ends with Kaa at No. 20.
"Brother Hao, I think there is something wrong with fists. This top 20 ranking is simply outrageous."
"Yes, I don't think it's right either."
"What's a 'cold machine'? At least it's a 'cold killing machine'!"
Gangzi continued Flando's words: "You are still ranked 10th, don't you want me, Brother Hao, to stand in front of you?"
"If we can bring Flandre to the World Championship, she will at least be on par with the Big Devil."
"Damn it, Flowerpot Man, if you don't do it, I feel uncomfortable all over, right?"
"..."
Li Hao smiled and said: "I don't want to be on Riot's poisonous milk list at all."
Chris and Zuo Wu both laughed and laughed. Brother Hao was still calm.
…
Two or three days after the Poisonous Milk Ranking, teams from all major competition regions began to leave for North America.
The first stop is San Francisco.
The group stage will begin at the Bill Graham Municipal Auditorium.
When Snake arrived in San Francisco, there were only six days left before September 30th.
…
When 16 teams from around the world gather in San Francisco, the e-sports world is about to usher in its hottest moment!
