Seeing the SSG main crystal shattered on the ground and the azure blue word 'Victory' appearing on the monitor, Mr. Gu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Six consecutive wins!" Kuro beside him beamed, "This is our first time!"
Li Ruixing participated in a total of three world championships. In the S5 group stage, he was double-killed by Flash Wolves, establishing FW's reputation for resisting Han Qixia. The overall strength of the S6 team was very strong, and the grouping was also very suitable, but they messed up and lost a small round.
Until this year, Kuro finally achieved the achievement of winning the group stage.
"Gu Gu, you are my lucky star!" Li Ruixing praised sincerely.
"Hey young... where did this go?" Gu Xing began to draw a pie, "It's just the group stage, we can't be complacent, the end of the journey is the Summoner's Trophy!"
Having said that, his face was also full of joy.
After taking off the headphones, the noisy sounds from the outside world broke into his ears, and Gu Xing could hear Wang Duoduo's loud shouts.
"The first LPL team to win the group stage of the World Championship was born, and VG once again made history!"
Zeyuan forced a smile and said, "VG is still strong. It has demonstrated its dominance to the fullest. It is difficult to overturn!"
He didn't make this expression for no reason.
After all, Samsung lost.
To be honest, Zeyuan's expression was uglier than that of the SSG players who were actually facing the defeat on the field.
After being upset by GAM, the Samsung players calmly accepted the fact that they would enter the knockout rounds as second in the group.
This game was a smooth one and I gave VG a favor and released Xia Luo to test the strength of the Phoenix Legend. I was prepared to lose the game as early as the BP stage.
Now all they can think about is that The Legend of Phoenix is so terrifying that it absolutely cannot be released together in the current version.
S7's Xia Luo is a pure rogue, much stronger than the castrated version of later generations. He is invincible in a battle with double W at level one, and he is quite flexible when starting a team and protecting himself.
Although Xayah's shooting range is a bit short, her feathers can still threaten the enemy's back row survival space!
Not to mention Rakan who can cast R and flash W instantly. EDG understands the power of this hero best!
The perfect combination of the two is amazing!
Leader An had a lot of thoughts in his mind. Looking at the VG players who came across the stage to shake hands with him, the smile on his face was more obvious than in the first round of the showdown.
Sure enough, as long as you don't have hope for the result of the game, you won't be disappointed.
"Too many leaks, too many leaks!" Gu Xing's face was full of joy.
In this Samsung match, Queshi gave VG a lot of face. If Xia Luo Zheng'er had not been allowed to fight, Gu Xing felt that his side would still win, but it would take a lot of effort.
Leader An extended his hand to shake his hand, and said in simple English with a dignified and solemn expression, "When we meet again in the finals, VG will not win as easily as today."
Unlike last year, the two teams in this World Championship are in the same group. According to Riot's regulations, the knockout draw divisions will be separated. Only both teams can meet again if they reach the finals.
Gu Xing couldn't laugh or cry.
"This is the end of the group stage, why are you all starting the loan finals?"
He used plural descriptions, and even if Mr. An didn't speak English very well, he could tell.
"Who else?" An Bixin adjusted his glasses and spoke calmly.
"Dragon Ball," Gu Xing replied, "Little Peanut said he wanted to fight us in the Bird's Nest."
"Haha," Leader An sneered, "Believe me, Longzhu will never make it to the finals."
In his opinion, if LZ is assigned to the half zone where VG is, they will definitely not be able to defeat Gu Xing.
If he is assigned to the half of SSG, An Bixin will raise his baseball bat and let the little peanut see how powerful the senior is!
Gu Xing had a questioning look on his face, he was stunned because he didn't understand why Head An was able to cheat Zi Kuang.
Brother, you had 3 wins and 3 losses in the group stage, and you were just defeated by GAM today!
After all, Longzhu is ranked first in Group D. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be easy to qualify for the top spot!
He didn't know that Samsung also ushered in a round of tactical evolution after facing VG in the first round. Now SSG is full of confidence and believes that it can shine in the knockout rounds.
Edgar is not used today, and the reason is very simple.
Not well adjusted.
Even if you are an old and authentic iron turtle like Samsung, you have never played the tactic of three-way wireless power + crazy real eye view in the mid-term, so it still takes some time to use it.
However, the second round of Group A's group stage tour is scheduled at the front, leaving little practice time for SSG.
Edgar saw that his tactics were not yet mature, so he simply covered them up first, and waited until the knockout round before using his tricks to kill everyone!
Therefore, An Bixin didn't take it seriously after seeing the second place in the group. He felt that he didn't know who to play in the quarterfinals, and he would win anyway.
He even dared to make bold claims that Samsung would not lose a game until they met VG in the finals!
Gu Xing was confused, but since he didn't have much time to shake hands after the game, he could only hurriedly send a congratulations and leave.
The entire VG team came to the center of the stage and bowed to the audience in front of them with the Summoner's Cup on their backs.
What greeted them was a sound so deafening that it could crack rocks and penetrate clouds!
When Gu Xing stepped down from the stage, he received the news that he had been recruited by Yu Shuang and wanted to participate in the main stage interview after the game.
He stood at the entrance of the backstage passage and was bored. He was eager to return home and wanted to go back to the lounge to surf in the 'toilet'.
We played three BO1s in a row today, and the preparation stage was very tense. Gu Xing didn’t even have the energy to go out and fight after the game.
But the host never came, so Gu Xing had nothing to do but watch the TV at the entrance of the passage.
Among them, the damage statistics chart after the game between VG and Samsung in the last game is being played.
As the damage king, Jack also has the advantage of Xia Luo. He leads the team in this set with an overwhelming force. In 31 minutes of the game, Jack outputs 2.8W, and the average damage per point is close to 1,000!
Even if it is the incense burner version, it has a good blessing on the ADC position, and it is still a very exaggerated number!
Not surprisingly, Yu Wenbo won his second game MVP in this World Championship.
Gu Xing glanced at Jack's makeup photo. The boy faced the camera with his head held high and his chest showing a defiant expression. The corners of his mouth were slightly curved to one side, and he smiled like a crooked dragon king.
Just when I wanted to take a look at the terrifying data performance of my Edici, my attention was attracted by what happened next to the passage.
The race knight lowered his head, looking frustrated and unwilling.
Next to him, Senior Brother and Bilson were leaning against the wall, their eyes blank.
On the stage not far away, the audience was cheering for VG who had won six consecutive home games, and the spotlights on the dome flashed randomly.
The light from the corners scattered here, intersecting with the dark light and shadow in the backstage passage, covering the faces of the three TSM people, with the bridge of their noses as the junction line, and the upper faces were hidden in the shadows.
Inadvertently, the composition is amazing.
Gu Xing doesn't have a mobile phone now, otherwise he would have to take pictures of these three buddies.
However, the official videographer Ichimura would not miss this great opportunity, squatting next to Kacha Kacha and playing with the SLR camera to take pictures.
He saw that Gu Xing was also there, and he couldn't help but chat a few words when he had nothing to do, "Good guy, TSM is so sad? Brother Xing, you are very careful!"
Gu Xing felt aggrieved when he heard this, "What does it have to do with me!"
"VG is clearly the most friendly team to TSM in the second round!"
The main reason is that the team is strong enough, so even if TSM loses, it won't be too uncomfortable.
And the game process is also very simple.
In order to avoid being dragged into a late comeback by TSM, Gu Xing ended the game quickly, which was painless to the victim.
So the expressions on the faces of the TSM trio must have nothing to do with me!
After hearing the explanation, Ichimura deeply agreed, "It seems to make sense..."
Fortunately, the race knight does not understand Chinese.
Otherwise, I would definitely have to argue with Gu Xing!
Are you embarrassed to say it has nothing to do with you?
Before arriving at the venue today, the race knight was full of confidence and vowed to teach Gu Xing a lesson with his little yellow hair.
You know, before the second round of the group stage, he practiced a total of 40 games of Yin Zerel, and he boasts that his proficiency is definitely high enough!
However, Gu Xing's mantis directly destroyed the self-confidence of the racial knights and drove them into a place of eternal destruction, which kicked off TSM's nightmare second round of the group stage.
SSG disgusted him to death with their unique iron turtle tactics. After even the theoretical probability of qualifying was gone, the race knights just relaxed and prepared for the "train battle" without any psychological burden. After this game, they bid farewell to the World Championship.
Who would have thought that Levi from GAM would give him a slap in the head!
Playing an EZ and killing everyone in front of the racial knight seems to be using practical actions to prove Yin Zeriel's strength to him!
What's even more outrageous is that the race knight is still a mantis versus a little yellow hair, replicating Gu Xing's routine strategies but the results are thin.
Who can withstand this?
Svenskeren is now confused and trapped in self-doubt.
It can be said that Gu Xing is the culprit!
If I hadn't been so embarrassed when facing VG in the first game, the subsequent situation would have been much better!
But this is the charm of the second round of the group stage.
Playing three consecutive BO1 games in a short period of time will test not only the team's physical strength, but also their mentality.
Obviously, although there are many veterans in the TSM team, it does not mean that the mentality is very mature - Uzi is also very senior, and now he will still become Rambo on time in key games.
After they lost the game against VG, their morale was so low that they lost a game in the second round!
Nowadays, the race knight feels regret, very regret.
Why do you think I have to go forward E when playing VG at the beginning?
But the deal is done, we can't open the time and space rift and go back to before today's first showdown, right?
He could only watch Gu Xing follow the host and leave the backstage passage. After letting out a short sigh, he rushed back to the lounge with the two C's in the team to prepare to bid farewell to this global finals.
When Gu Xing came on stage, he first enjoyed the roar of cheers from the audience and looked extremely comfortable.
"Brother Xing is welcome to accept the post-game interview," Yu Shuang said wearing a blue and white porcelain cheongsam. She now has a well-proportioned figure and has an oriental beauty under the warm light. She said two warm-up words before throwing out the first one.
Question, "The competition in the group stage of Group A has come to an end. VG has advanced to the knockout rounds with a complete victory. Brother Xing, would you like to express your thoughts?"
Gu Xing picked up the microphone with a proud look on his face, "During the first round of the group stage, I said that we would not lose a game in the next round. Has it come true now?"
There were echoes from the audience in the audience.
"Then I will definitely be happy to fulfill my promise," he said sternly, "Then let's wait for a while and concentrate on studying our opponents in the quarterfinals."
Yu Shuang pursed her lips and smiled, "I would also like to ask Brother Xing why Mantis was selected today? When I was watching the game backstage, I discovered that this hero has not appeared in mainstream competitions for half a year..."
Gu Xing responded fluently, "EZ's jungler is relatively fragile. I chose Mantis because I wanted to use high burst to restrain the opponent. Judging from the situation of the game, the early effect was achieved, but in the mid-term, it was still a bit weak against EZ. It is difficult to go again."
Expand your advantages.”
"I can only say that there is a reason why this version of Mantis cannot be played. It does not match the game environment at all. Whether EZ can be restricted is a matter of opinion. After all, I think Levi's EZ can also win." He answered truthfully.
The truth about the version is that EZ doesn't quite fit the version, but it's still barely usable in some games.
The mantis really has no way to choose except when it comes to the little yellow-haired mantis.
The Race Knight used a small yellow-haired water gun in that game, and in the end, he ranked first in output in the game. This can also verify EZ's output ability in the current slow version that emphasizes pulling and operation.
Moreover, after VG selected Mantis, the team, except for the top laner, was all squishy, and it was difficult to withstand being Qed twice by Yin Zeriel.
I can only say there are pros and cons.
Gu Xing was forced to panic and simply used Khazik to play the role of retaining people in the team, relying on teamwork to successfully end the game in the mid-term.
After playing this game, it is obvious that the mantis is not accustomed to the environment!
Yu Shuang didn't know much about the game. She was a bit overestimated even if her rank was Bronze. After listening to Gu Xing's answer, she nodded in understanding and turned to the next topic.
"Tomorrow's Group B duel will begin. EDG, a brother team that also belongs to the LPL, will compete. How does Brother Xing view the qualifying situation of Group B?"
She looked at Gu Xing curiously, wanting to hear the star's opinion.
As a result, Gu Xing's answer sounded very official at first glance.
"I think SKT is basically stable. If nothing happens, the remaining spot will be EDG. They were not in very good shape in the first round, but they should have adjusted well in the second round and there will be no big problem qualifying."
Gu Xing's words were really not a pretense.
Tomorrow is the Group B matchup. Now Guodian's competitors may still be hesitating whether to continue using Xiao Huangmao as a jungler. They don't have much time to think about it. It is reasonable for EDG to get some bonuses by relying on their understanding of the version.
Yu Shuang smiled, "VG will go to the venue of the quarter-finals in a few days. It is now the juncture between the group stage and the knockout stage. We will say goodbye to Wuhan and rush to Guangzhou soon. Is there anything you want to say to the audience?
?”
"Although Wuhan only held the S7 qualifying and group stage games, the schedule was long enough. Every time I took the stage, I could hear the applause and cheers from the audience and feel everyone's enthusiasm. It was really
Thank you all very much..." Gu Xing expressed his true feelings.
This is the advantage of hosting the World Championships at home. Every time Gu Xing gets on and off the stage, he is excited by the cheers from the audience.
"Your support is also the driving force for VG to move forward. I hope that the six games we participated in this World Championship will live up to everyone's expectations and satisfy the audience in Wuhan."
There was thunderous applause in the venue.
VG's victory in the group stage made the audience who bought tickets feel more comfortable. After all, no one wants to spend money to suffer.
For example, a few days ago, Guodian's 10,000 advantage against SKT was reversed, which really made many EDG fans break the defense and once lost their fans and returned to support.
In comparison, VG's performance is really good.
If I have to be critical, it would be that in the first round they faced GAM in a thrilling comeback, and the win was not clean enough.
Gu Xing paused and continued, "We are about to go to Guangzhou, which is where VG won its first LPL championship. I hope something good will happen and let the local audience see VG's progress and growth after a year and a half.
.”
"In the end, it's the same sentence... We won't lose any game from now on!" He uttered his heroic words, which received a roar of excitement like a mountain roaring and a tsunami!
Bowing again to bid farewell to the Wuhan audience, Gu Xing handed back the microphone and turned to leave, leaving behind a figure as tall as a pine tree.
"Brother Xing, come on, you are the pride of our LPL!"
"VG come on, see you in the live broadcast room!"
"We must arrange arrangements for those teams to let them see how powerful the LPL is!"
The atmosphere became a bit sentimental.
As a result, on his way back to the lounge, Gu Xing saw that the Vietnamese team had spent a huge sum of money to get a bottle of champagne from nowhere and were celebrating happily in the corridor. If Vincent hadn't given him a warning, these people might have been on the spot.
Open the wine.
The GAM members whose behavior was stopped simply raised Levi, the absolute core, above their heads and shouted the leader's ID.
After a 0-3 loss in the first round, the Vietnamese team bounced back in the second round. They upset SSG first, and then used EZ to defeat the North American champion TSM, ending their S7 journey with a 2-4 record.
For a strong team, this result is undoubtedly a failure.
But GAM is a wild card!
Ranking third in the group and beating one of the NA divisions, in their eyes, they have successfully completed the task!
The Vietnamese audience probably opened the champagne in the live broadcast room after watching the game against Samsung.
Gu Xing was infected by GAM's optimism and felt happy.
Humming a little tune, I returned to the VG lounge and heard Jack's loud voice again, "How about Dai Zhichun, buddy, isn't it interesting?"
"If you win the championship this year, you can choose a mouse skin and get a share of the skin's revenue! My brother didn't play last year, so in the end you can only share some basic bonuses to stuff your teeth. You're starting like a fool!"
Able was still quite nervous and his hands were balled up.
"Are you asking me to split the money?" He said sheepishly, "How about 30/70? You know, my life is quite tight."
Dai Zhichun's family is not well-off. He dropped out of junior high school and relied on power training to maintain his life. Skin money is very important to him.
Yu Wenbo was stunned on the spot.
What kind of understanding do you have, do you look like you are trying to collect money and collect protection money?
You look down on people, right?
Jack thought for a moment and then jokingly added, "Then if you get 30%, that's a lot, right?"
Dai Zhichun was choked.
I want to get 70% of it, okay?!
Everyone in the lounge was overjoyed, and Jin Wenhyuk even patted his belly and burst into laughter.
Gu Xing couldn't help but laugh. He found a seat and quickly pulled out his phone, preparing to go to the counter and turn on the surfing mode.
