At about eight o'clock in the evening, I remember that the three of them, Colonel Guan and Cat King, were already sitting in the commentary box chatting.
The background behind them has been replaced by the S9 lottery ceremony.
When Teatality mid-lane professional player Jiizuke and coach Yato Cannon appeared on the stage, the draw ceremony for the finals officially began.
Twelve teams including Brazil, Japan, Southeast Asia, Oceania, and the Commonwealth of Independent States entered the draw pool, and teams in the same group will compete in the B01 double round-robin group points match.
The top two teams in the group will enter the second round of the qualifying round. The first and second place teams in the group points will be randomly matched. The final four winning teams will enter the group stage and join the other 12 teams to form the top 16 of the 2019 Global Finals.
SPY, HKA, C9, DG, these teams will also participate in the finals
.
According to the rules of previous years, there are no major upsets. These strong teams can basically make it out of the playoffs, and the rest are mostly in the atmosphere group.
Therefore, everyone just watched the excitement of the draw for the qualifying round and didn't pay too much attention to it.
As the time approached nine o'clock, the atmosphere at the lottery ceremony was obviously different.
"Okay, the exciting moment is coming." "I hope our LPL can draw a good lottery." Remember to ask with a smile, "Colonel, what do you mean by a good lottery."
Colonel Guan raised his eyebrows, "If you ask me, meeting Brother Hao and a Korean team in advance would be the worst draw."
"Judging from the current performance, the three Korean teams are all very strong. If we meet them in the LPL, it will probably be a 50-50 draw. It will be a tough battle."
"TSM is an alternative in the LCS and is the absolute tough opponent in this S9. "The first thing everyone should strive for is to advance to the group stage." "Yes, advancing to the knockout stage is very important."
"Oh, the main event, YatoCannon, is about to start drawing lots." King Hat raised his voice, and the audience and team members in each competition area stared at his hand moving back and forth in the pool.
"Oh, my hand is very good. I drew G2 right away." "The European Emperor drew the European Emperor, and the host of S9 was drawn into Group A."
Colonel Guan continued to introduce, "Friends who follow the professional league should know that after G2 officially returned to the summer split, their state was completely different from before. They already have the dominance of the king."
"Especially Caps, his progress is very huge, I must be impressed." "Have you noticed how Riot officials recently evaluated Caps?" Remember to praise "How to evaluate" "European little TheKing" "Hey, this guy has a big head."
ah"
"From the king of hats to the little TheKing, S9's G2 is worth looking forward to." "The second draw, the No. 1 pool of Group B..." "Looking at the color, it seems to be SKT."
When YatoCannon fully unfolded the team label, the colonel said oh and promptly changed his words "It's RNG"
"Our LPL representative team, the No. 1 seed."
"Uzi won the Summer Championship this time, and everyone is online. We must work hard!
On the big screen, the scene of RNG winning the cup at the Magic City Stadium was also played. After the camera returned to the scene, SKT appeared in Group C.
"In my impression, SKT seems to be either in Group B or Group C every year." I remember mentioning it, and Guan Zeyuan said:
"For SKT, they have only one goal. They are responsible for reviving the LCK."
The Cat King nodded aside:
"Yes, their burden is still quite heavy, but they are in pretty good shape recently."
"The summer split has a rollercoaster ride, and I gained a lot of experience from Griffin. This year's rule is to bring 7 people, which is also in line with SKT's tactics. They can bring two jungle assistants."
In pool No. 1, there is only the last silver ball left.
The VIT team coach in a suit with a smile on his face took out the small ball. He quickly opened it and showed the team label to the audience.
"Without a doubt, TSM"
"Brother Hao is in Group D. If we
If our LPL team enters Group D, they will have to fight Brother Hao in advance."
"In the current ranking of professional players in the league, Angkor is still firmly ranked first."
After Colonel Guan finished speaking, the Cat King also sighed with emotion:
"This is already the fourth year, and no one has shaken Brother Hao's status." "Think about it, time flies so fast. I was still working as a support in DAN at that time, and I was playing games with Snake. Brother Hao's methods
Quite cruel."
"Hahaha."
Remember to laugh at the sidelines "How did you feel at that time?" "Feelings"
"I was still a rookie at the time, and I was under a lot of pressure when I met Fp in the S game." "Halfway through the game, I was thinking, why is this person so powerful?"
"Now, my level is limited, I retired and became a commentator, and then Brother Hao is still No. 1 in the league. Isn't this amazing?"
Combined with Cat King's words and his expression, it can be seen that he is also filled with emotion.
0
"Talking back to the TSM team, they completely dominate the LCS league. In this division, there is no team that can compete with them in terms of hard power."
"The midfielder duo of Brother Hao and Benji are currently rated as the strongest midfielder in the league.
"Actually, Benji's condition is average. The main reason is that Brother Hao has gained too many points. Benji's side doesn't need too complicated tactics."
"Hahaha, give me a face, squatting in the middle will never go out of style." "Joking aside, TSM's midfielder and jungler can be said to be the strongest in this S9. The side lanes are relatively stable now. They play well and they will definitely win in this S9.
competitive."
"On the championship prediction list, TSM's voice is very high, breaking people's perception of the LCS division."
"..."
The lottery ceremony continued, and the audience gradually smelled the smell of gunpowder.
The pressure came to Jiizuke. He was wearing a sky blue suit and a standard Mediterranean hairstyle, and he was shaking the ball energetically.
The teams in each major competition area became nervous. The first small ball was taken out, which was AHQ.
The LPL audience looked at the second silver ball, it was JT.
"JT! It feels like we have won a lottery. They are tied with RNG." I remember loudly retorting, "You can't say that, JT is the No. 1 seed in the LMS. The Cosmos team is coming, so we must be careful."
Yes, you should never underestimate your opponent. "The three LPL commentators were very happy. The FNC team was drawn into Group C.
Jiizuke continued to play with the ball, and the teams that had not yet been drawn were holding their balls and watching.
The Italian enjoyed this process very much, and he felt like he was God.
Come on, let me draw a lucky one. The fourth small silver ball in the second pool was drawn. "Ah Xiba"
In the GRF team, manager Shark immediately made a complaint.
Although I am not afraid of TSM, facing the first player in the league in advance is by no means good news.
"Griffin"
"Good boy, this Group D is fatal in an instant"
"GRF is definitely not as good as TSM in the midfield, but there are opportunities on the wing." "However, Angkor has always had experience playing against Korean teams. For Griffin, this is not a good sign."
The Cat King doesn’t mind watching the excitement:
"Not only for Griffin, but also for the two teams in Group D, it is even more dangerous.
When the Italians drew the fifth ball, almost all the remaining four teams looked at it eagerly, almost shouting "Pump me" and "Pump me".
Group A seems to have the least pressure. "It's TL" "They entered Group A."
"LEC, LCS plus an LMS team, these three teams are all happy, and G2 is making a lot of money."
The senior colonel said horrifiedly, "Then Group D is finished."
"According to the principle of avoidance in the same division, the number one seed in Group B is RNG, so the only person assigned to Group B is GAM."
"This is a Vietnamese VCS team, signed by RNG, and the environment is more comfortable than G2."
"That means, I
G and Snake, one of them must be assigned to group D." Hearing what he said, the audience watching the lottery ceremony were all shocked. Good guy.
Isn't this just a death group?
In the BJ base, watching Jiizuke directly draw GAM, Wuzi Xiaohu and others were very happy.
"Ne, brothers" "What a great draw" "What a great draw"
"I want to kiss Jizuke, my good brother from VIT." Fans of Yukenmen were instantly active in various forums.
"Laughing, LMS on the left, Vietnam on the right, we still need to go to Berlin." "There is no need to play in the group stage, let's go directly to Spain." "What Spain are we going to? I have already arrived in Paris, France."
"The new fan has just raised his sword, and the old swordsman has already pointed his finger at the Summoner's Cup." "Not to mention Group D, even Group C is not easy, let's see who is more unlucky." "..."
The Italian smiled and started to draw the penultimate ball.
In the Snake base in the magic city, Zuo Wu, Xili, Cuihua, Liu Qingsong, Lin Weixiang and others who returned to the base to visit all gathered in front of the screen.
"Oh my god, Jiizuke, please don't mess with us."
"Jiizuke, please take us out, please, just be a human being~"
Ice cream "Oh~~"
Just when Jizuke was about to reveal the ball, everyone had a bad feeling for no reason.
"Really come"
"Jiizuke, you are super doubled when buying groceries."
Guan Zeyuan shouted: "Jiizuke drew IG and they were assigned to Group C." "SKT, FNC, IG, Group C is much more difficult than Group A and Group B" "Now, only Snake is left in Group D"
Jiizuke did not hesitate and opened the last ball. Snake! "OH~~"
At this moment, even the audience watching the lottery ceremony burst into loud exclamations.
Of course, many people are very excited.
Maxwell, who presided over the drawing ceremony, kept applauding:
"Snake! The last team of Group D is confirmed"
"Snake is a dynasty team that has won three championships in a row, and The King is the FP player of this dynasty team for three consecutive times. Guys, it's unimaginable that they will compete in the S9 group stage."
"After a year, The King has to face his old master, and Snake has to face his absolute core."
"I can't wait to jump to the group stage as soon as possible." "Everyone should be as excited as me."
"Similarly, the situation in Group D is quite chaotic." "..."
Within the GRF team, everyone's expressions changed again.
Although Snake does not have the same dominance as before, they do have a dynasty heritage!
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Except for the mid laner, the other team members are all champions. They can fight all the way through the bubble competition of LPL. Their strength should not be underestimated. Everyone in the Snake base was stunned. Brother Holy Gun's eyes widened.
"We are in the same group as Brother Hao," Lin Weixiang said. "I'm so sorry, Brother Hao is definitely going to mess with me~~" Black Angel's expression was a little stiff, and he took a long breath. Whoever has the most pressure in the team must be Angel.
He was the one who faced Li Hao directly. The lottery ceremony was over, and there were different opinions for a while. Group D was not only the death group, but also the death was quite complete.
All the teams in the qualifying round failed. Whoever is assigned to Group D is unlucky.
…
"Snake turned out to be Snake"
"Brother, your mood must be very complicated right now, right?" Inside the TSM base, Kagui looked at Li Hao with wide eyes.
However, I saw Li Hao smiling and seemed very satisfied with this grouping. "Group D is indeed more difficult to fight, we must be careful." "Whether facing Snake or Griffin, we can't underestimate the enemy." Li Hao reminded, and then
return
Reliable question: "I'm actually in a pretty good mood."
"I haven't seen them for more than a year, and I didn't expect to meet them in such a way.
"This will become an unforgettable memory in my career." "Hahaha."
The stupid chicken laughed loudly on the side: "Bingquan, it seems you really don't understand."
"Now, he can't wait to show off his muscles in front of his little brothers."
He shouted:
"Let the iron fist of friendship and love hit S9 with all its strength"
