Inside the Busan Convention and Exhibition Center, the lck studio is full of desolation.
The old commentator Kim Dong-joon kept shaking his head. His commentator status in the Korean league is considered to be the second-largest, and he has been active in the game as early as the OGN period.
At this moment, he frowned and made a very disappointed voice in the strange tone of the sticks:
"Ours was a disastrous defeat, I can't believe it!"
"In such a short period of time, we couldn't find a chance to counterattack, and snake didn't leave any room. This is really a super difficult team!"
"Mainly because of theking, the Crown was flinching when facing him. I saw a game dominated by Jayce. The strength of this league's number one player is unimaginable."
Brother CT on the side kept nodding:
"Without the rhythm of sideline support, the lineup advantage can only exist on paper. They have big problems with their on-the-spot tactical judgment, and they are caught in a confrontation with Snake in the middle and jungle, and it happened after Jayce got the advantage. This can be
Not a wise choice."
"Edger initially came up with this lineup in order to miss The King's absolute strength and use a more flexible lineup to fight on the sideline. However, our players completely misunderstood what he meant and instead focused on The King."
"oh..."
"This is not smart enough. The king is an outrageous guy."
Bitdol was a little angry. He spread his hands and seemed to have something in his mouth, and said loudly with an exaggerated expression:
"Now how to do!"
"We, shouldn't it be possible that we can't even enter the knockout rounds?"
"It's a little hard for me to accept how our powerful Samsung team, which has the pedigree of winning the S-League, could end up like this."
"In S7, when Crown faced the king, it was basically a different feeling than now. What are we worried about? We need to cheer up! You are also the team that won the S championship, and this is Busan. We have so many people now.
Support, I saw the flag, don’t be afraid of snakes!”
Bitdol was outputting and yelling in the commentary box, wishing he could replace Crown and the others could hear Bitdol's unrestrained voice.
However, this makes no sense at all.
Samsung's record has reached 1-4.
Some Korean viewers felt aggrieved, and the studio commentators felt the same way.
Jin Dongjun recalled S4, which was also held in South Korea at that time. The ten Samsung players were so dazzling at that time. As commentators, they didn’t have to worry about the performance of the team at all. They only had to make a few blind calls.
But what about s8 this time...
In just a few days, I felt more and more unsure of myself.
Not only is the European division rising, several teams in the LPL are even more terrifying.
Especially sheking, this is something that makes Korean audiences drool after watching it.
In the Korean competition, watching Korean players being beaten, claiming to be the first division of the league, and still immersed in the past, how can they face this miserable reality!
Brother CT forcibly cheered up: "There is only one chance. If vit loses to tl, then they will have two points. If they beat vit next, everyone will be 2-4. If SL, then tl, vit, three
Two teams will start a playoff."
"If this is the situation, there is still a glimmer of opportunity."
Although it is slim, Korean audiences still have some illusions.
At the Busan Convention and Exhibition Center, snake's team members shook hands with Samsung again.
It didn't last for 20 minutes. Such a humiliating defeat left Samsung in complete silence. No one spoke during the handshake.
After thanking everyone on stage, the snake members returned backstage.
The big screen also showed the MVP data, and Li Hao's makeup photo and Jess' avatar appeared on it without any suspense.
Jess finally scored 9/0/5 luxurious data, which was the fourth time in this World Championship that he was super awesome. On the current major positive data lists of the World Championship, the ID theking has secured the top spot and performed an unparalleled performance.
The power of dust.
In this arena where major competitions around the world are paying attention, millions of players are shocked.
And this is just the group stage, a great performance seems to have just begun!
During the waiting time for the competition, the discussion groups in each competition area were immersed in discussions.
For example, the LCS Alliance E-Sports Players' Home, Gamers Guild, etc. were all in a state of excitement at this time.
There are people discussing everything related to the alliance in the forums, post bars, comment areas of broadcast platforms, and some anchor rooms here in lpl.
Someone made a shocked sound:
"Snake has won five consecutive games in the group stage! From the spring playoffs to now, he has not lost a game! It's too exaggerated. Do you want to win all the games and win the S championship?"
Data Emperor responded below:
"This is difficult, but it is entirely possible. Compared with other groups, Snake's combat power is absolutely unique, better than kt, rng, ig, and fnc. The main reason is that Brother Wolfberry is too perverted! This thigh and Qingqing
As thick as a Tianzhu! When I think that he is still a veteran, my scalp is going crazy! Without further ado, I will also be soaking wolfberry tonight."
Dong Di also said: "I had expected it. When the news about the training match was confirmed, I knew that Brother Wolfberry was going to make big news. Analyzing it with a data chart, Brother Wolfberry's personal ability has reached the peak stage.
, it can also be seen from the short shots of the players in the game, Flando and others occasionally laughed, Brother Wolfberry was really directing the operation throughout the whole process, he was too focused."
"It is conceivable that he will play his best in the 2018 S-Games and show his best side in front of the audience without reservation."
"Everyone, please cherish it, we will never see this kind of competition again."
"He is the only one in the entire alliance who can use such terrifying dominance as a conventional weapon."
"..."
Amidst the discussion, the game between tl and vit began.
This is a game that affects the nerves of LCS and LCK, because the outcome of the game will directly determine the promotion situation of Group B.
The two sides fought fiercely, showing a tendency of taking the lead alternately.
Vit mid laner J Huang took out Zuo Yin and continued to receive bonuses.
kikis also focused on the middle lane, constantly targeting King P.
The development of TL's mid laner was very poor. In the 19th minute, King P's Syndra was beaten to 1/4/2.
However, TL's bottom lane is struggling to support itself.
Big Brother's Kai'Sa is currently 3/0/1 and is the hope of the whole village.
The senior brother at the contestants' table was fully focused and really wanted to win the game.
In 2018, the eldest brother experienced the greatest pain in his life. The only brother who supported him in e-sports and always gave him warmth, the man he loved very much, actually destroyed this complete family with his own hands, leaving the eldest brother without his parents.
.
As long as the elder brother recalls the scene of visiting his brother in prison, his heart will feel miserable.
When the tragedy happened, he was leading TL to its first North American championship.
Records, glory, tragedy, come one after another...
After experiencing great tragedy in life, the senior brother returned to the alliance.
For him, this Summoner's Rift may be the warmest place that can soothe the wounds in his soul.
When asked by reporters, his answer was: "I want to come back and win the championship."
In the summer of 2018, he successfully won and kissed the North American Summer Championship trophy in Los Angeles, entering S8 as the No. 1 seed in North America. This was his third team to win the summer championship after clg and tsm.
For the senior brother, this is extremely beautiful.
He also embarked on the journey of S8 with greater confidence.
However, the world championship trophy is getting further and further away from him.
"Ka'Sa killed the blind monk and got a double kill. This wave is the ultimate! TL has stabilized, and it's hard to say the outcome now!"
Colonel Guan said:
"Keep on dragging back. Kai'Sa is currently in the lead in terms of equipment, and her output will be higher than that of Varus. Moreover, the senior brother is in good condition. There is indeed a possibility of turning this game around."
…
Backstage at snake, Li Hao was also paying attention to the game situation with his teammates.
Li Hao can feel his desire for victory from his senior brother.
However, vit also wants to win.
The game lasted until 39 minutes, and everyone in the background gathered in front of the screen, everyone's expressions were very nervous.
In the ancient dragon pit, tl and vit collided fiercely.
Samsung loudly cheered for TL, cheered for the senior brother, and transmitted its will to TL. They were fighting with TL.
However, the kick that changed Group B was kicked out from under Kikis' feet!
Kikis, who had made several consecutive mistakes, finally succeeded once and made a meritorious deed! A roundhouse kick from Europe kicked Kai'Sa back from the crowded lineup! Varus' ultimate move was given instantly, and the field was in chaos, with ten heroes killing each other.
group.
The senior brother who was criticized by everyone became the first person to go black. Emperor P's Syndra dealt all damage, but Varus relied on the Demon Drinking Sword to save his life. The aggressive Emperor P was also killed by the sword demon on the road. Both sides
c died in battle, tl team battle was defeated on the spot!
The long resurrection time allowed vit to push the troops directly to the front of the front tooth tower. At just over 40 minutes, the crystal of the North American brother exploded!
After this battle, TL's record is 1-4, while vit's is 3-2, 1-4. No matter how they play later, vit has already locked up the qualifying spot.
The European players were very excited, and those Europeans who came to Busan celebrated loudly!
The ranking of Group B has been locked in advance.
Next, sl.
Although he has no desires or desires, TL is still playing this game very seriously.
When King P picked Zuo Yin, Li Hao picked Yasuo.
The s7 champion skin appeared on the s8 arena.
Casa selected the wine barrel, and with the unreasonable cooperation of the two, Emperor P once again consolidated his position on the background wall.
At 24 minutes and 15 seconds, the wine barrel was stuck in the blind spot of the field of vision, and a big move was thrown towards the TL high ground.
Kai'Sa and Zuo Yin were blasted to the edge of the tower. Yasuo was blown out by a gust of wind and caught TL Double C on the ground. This wave of cooperation made the commentators in the studio scream, and South Korea's Kim Dongjun and CT brother couldn't help it.
Applause.
Yasuo's sword was filled with fire, and the exaggerated flame special effects flew up into the air. The two fell to the ground and were compensated by Snake's subsequent damage. They were killed by a steel-cutting move!
"Wow!" the doll yelled.
Colonel Guan's eyes widened: "Oh my god! One Q wears two, the record is 8/0/6, once again amazing!"
"It's really crazy!"
At the Busan Convention and Exhibition Center, exclamations continued to be heard. Yasuo, who had taken the head, rushed into the high ground with his teammates, stepping forward and pursuing continuously.
Endless, green cross, bloody hand, attack speed boots, no one can stop Yasuo TL with this equipment.
The high amount of damage allowed Li Hao to continuously gain kills in the chaos.
The bull's head and Urgot were beheaded one after another!
Four kills!
The data came to an astonishing 10/0/6!
"Five kills! Do you want five kills?"
"Is the first pentakill in S8 coming?!"
"Xmithie slipped, Pig Girl ran away towards the spring!"
Sun Yalong shouted: "Q flash, darling, he secretly learned the factory director's skills."
"xmithie ran away!"
"Want to cross the spring? Ornn is coming over."
"Give up, SL is gone."
Wawa smiled and said: "Looking at Snake's actions, he probably wanted to help Brother Hao get the pentakill, but Yasuo stepped back on his own. It seems that he didn't think it was necessary."
"That's for sure."
"With Brother Hao's appearance, there is no need to prove himself with a pentakill. If you don't force it, getting it is the icing on the cake."
"Well, in this case, Snake will win and advance!"
"Yes, the first 6-0 team in the group stage may also be the only 6-0 team."
"..."
Soon, TL's crystal hub was bulldozed, xmithie lost his fighting spirit, and Piggy kept soaking in the spring water and never came out again.
Many North American viewers looked helpless. The No. 1 seed they had high hopes for could only bid farewell to S8 with a record of 1-5.
This year's North American team still can't go far.
The European teams next door have all risen, and they are getting more and more stretched.
When Li Hao came to the TL player seat, the North American senior brother stood up from the e-sports chair.
What surprised Li Hao was that the frustrated doublelift actually took the initiative to talk to him:
"Theking, how did you do it?"
Seeing the confusion on Li Hao's face, the senior brother explained:
"I mean...how do you stay like this?"
"We are the same age, and you are even a little older than me, but compared to you, I am a bit behind."
"This is your secret, you don't have to answer."
This scene made Li Hao feel very strange. After all, the talkative master in front of him once said quite classic trash talk. He never expected that one day he would bow his head and ask for advice.
He loosened his hand and said with a calm expression:
"It's no secret. Maintaining my condition depends on training. My training volume is at the forefront of the entire league. There are more games in the LPL, and the LCS should be more relaxed, which keeps me more sensitive to the game.
.”
"Normally, I also watch a lot of game videos. If you are interested, we can communicate."
The eldest brother's eyes lit up slightly. He hunched over his body somewhat desolately, nodded and said again:
"I wish you all the best in the next competition."
"Thanks."
The two living fossils shook hands again, and then parted at the contestants' bench.
The senior brother looked at Li Hao's back, slightly stunned.
As a figure of the era, Big Brother also imagined that he could be like Li Hao, leading the team to win the world championship with various magical performances.
However, the same age does not mean the same fate.
In the first half of his career, he was more famous and successful than Li Hao.
But at this time, Li Hao reached a height that was difficult for him to reach.
The elder brother has read a lot of information, especially when he was in the tsm team. Their team thoroughly studied Li Hao's career resume.
Drifting among the various armies, like a seedling in a storm.
In the corner where no one was paying attention, he grew up secretly without giving up, and finally broke out from the darkness and became the wonder of the entire alliance.
Even the senior brother admires this kind of experience.
An incredible road, a road that no one expected, was suddenly opened up under his feet.
Therefore, when you look at the ID "theking" now, you can feel the heaviness it has condensed.
…
sjokz: “We meet again, hello, theking.”
The queen of the house is all smiles.
"Hello."
sjokz raised the microphone and asked: "It's surprising. In 6 games, you got 5 super games. This is the world stage. How did you do it?"
Facing the eyes of the entire alliance world, Li Hao said calmly:
"I am also enjoying this process. Every game is a kind of enjoyment for me."
"I didn't care about the final data, I just tried my best to use my abilities."
"Put your energy into the game and everything will happen naturally."
…
In the European studio, Charles asked Coster: "Coster, do you understand what theking means?"
"Of course I understand."
Coster opened his mouth and said:
"He's saying..."
"I didn't use any skills at all. It's just that you guys are too weak. I played the game very casually. You couldn't even let me die once."
"Hahaha!" Charles and Ball were both laughing.
"Listening to what you said, Vit seems to be stronger."
"Why?"
Ball said with a smile: "Because vit is the only team in the group stage that can make the king unable to surpass the gods."
"Haha, isn't it?"
Charles rolled his eyes and spread his hands: "This standard is so crazy. Is it a success to even restrict the king of super gods now?"
…
After the brief interview, the last game of Group B started, vit battle
Although Samsung is out, this is a respectable game and they have to go all out to play.
Brother Crown even chose Grasshopper, wanting to recreate the glory of S7.
But what many viewers find unimaginable is that during a 34-minute team battle, the commentators described the scene on the field in an almost hoarse voice. Samsung's positioning error was found by vit. Except for the ruler, the rest
All four were killed!
Although King J’s Enchantress has a miserable record, her teammates are awesome.
As for Samsung, except for Emperor Chi, the others don't know what they are doing.
Kai'Sa returned to the city and defended 4 of them by herself, but was killed by Vit in front of the front tooth tower.
34 minutes and 43 seconds, in this time full of 7 flavors, Samsung was defeated by vit!
The lck commentary booth was silent.
1-5 is out, exactly the same as the TL next door.
This is the most humiliating record of lck in the group stage. It is unimaginable that it was achieved by Samsung.
…
"Damn it! Is Vit so strong? Double kill three stars!
"
"Don't brag about this for a year!"
"No, you dare to underestimate the second European brother? Looking at the record, this is a team that even Brother Hao can't surpass!"
"Vit, the team that was eliminated by netizens first, did not expect to laugh and enter the top 8 in the end. s8 is truly magical."
…
The match in Group B has officially ended, sparking heated discussions on the Internet.
News about Samsung's elimination, Vit's counterattack, and Snake's six-game winning streak are everywhere in the forum.
Snake has a few days of rest.
However, the quarter-finals are still at this venue, so there is no need to change places.
On October 15th, the subsequent group matches are also proceeding quickly.
