Tomorrow's game will determine whether Taobo can qualify first in the group.
The whole Internet paid a lot of attention to that game.
If TaoBo is ranked first in the group, there will definitely be an external competition in the quarterfinals.
The last thing LPL netizens want to see is a foreign competition in the top eight.
But there are advantages to not having a foreign war. It can at least guarantee that one team will advance to the semi-finals without wiping out all the LPL teams.
If Taobao is second in the group, the quarterfinals will form four LPLs and four LCKs.
Strictly speaking, there will be four LPL teams in the top four, and there will also be four LCK teams in the top four.
So netizens may be a little conflicted.
On the one hand, netizens do not want to see foreign wars, on the other hand, netizens also hope that LPL can go further.
Is Ke Taobo capable of ranking first in the group?
If TaoBo loses on purpose, it would be suspected of playing in an extra match.
"Hey, please don't you qualify for second place in the Taobo group?"
"He also feels that if the Taobo team advances in second place, there will be no external competition."
"Then there will definitely be no foreign wars among the top eight."
"Let's take a look at the situation and see if Taobo can win."
"It's embarrassing that Tao Bo Qiu won, but the top eight will have to fight outside."
"He really doesn't want to see foreign wars, but can the LPL beat the LCK in BO5 now? By fighting foreign wars, at least one team can be guaranteed to enter the semi-finals."
"If we play LCK, there is no point in reaching the semi-finals. What's the use of being in the semi-finals? The most useful thing is to have a champion. Come on, Tobo, let him be the first in the group and go straight to beat the LPL! And then we can do it again
Defeat LCK and win the East Championship directly!"
"No, even if there is no external war, we can't blame Taobo. We should blame the other teams for not living up to expectations."
Netizens are discussing it hotly.
Whether Bulian turns out well in the beginning depends on how Taobo performs in the group stage tomorrow!
At least Taobao will qualify first.
Even if they start 3-0, there is a chance that Taobao will not be able to go to the group stage.
For example, the JD.com group stage also started 3-0. It turned out that the score was 4-2 and three teams played extra games, so Keke was eliminated.
The first game, TES VS EG!
In the first game, Suhang chose a plate of cats.
Taobo carried the whole game in the midfield, directly crushed EG across the board, and won the game.
Taobao is 4-0!
It depends on whether we can win later!
After TaoBo defeated EG, netizens did not praise TaoBo as usual, but instead there were many trolls.
"Does Taobo want to fight abroad?"
"Taobo is a team like that. It is invincible in foreign competitions and is a weakling outside. Can it compete in foreign competitions and reach the semi-finals when the time comes?"
"All the teams in the LPL are fighting against each other, and Taobo can only bully one of its own people in foreign wars. It's really boring."
Trolls are not like that, they will spray wherever there is an angle.
The game went very quickly.
Soon, it’s time for the game between TES and G2!
The game between Taobo and G2 was a life-and-death game for G2.
G2 has to win against Dongtaobo to have any hope of advancing to the quarterfinals.
And that game surprised everyone. Suzhou and Hangzhou played in the East!
Mark is here!
Qing Tian was not present, and Mark was no longer present.
The main condition of Qiu Qingtian is not that good, and Dahuang also needs to continue to hone himself in the competition field.
There is no danger of qualifying for the next two games. Taobo can qualify even if they lose both.
Let Dahuang practice Yidong more in the game, which can also improve his own level, not to mention that G2's single player is not that weak.
Suhang walked backstage to watch the game, which felt quite novel.
As for the statement that Taobo must be ranked second in the group, Taobo is also very good outside the team.
Although no one wants to compete abroad, there is no need to settle for second place in the group.
For Taobao, whether it is first in the group or second in the group, it is good.
"Let's see how Mark performs." Su Hang said.
The red crescent moon looked at Su Hang from the side and said, "Do you feel like you can win?"
Su Hang said: "Keke, no problem, everyone is interested, why can't Keke win?"
The game ended quickly, with Taobo and G2 fighting back and forth.
Su Hang looked a little confused.
Without his command, all members of Taobo would not be able to play as smoothly, and everyone was a little uncomfortable with it.
Especially the voices outside the team sounded a bit messy.
It's okay to play well in the early and mid-term, but when it comes to the mid-to-late stage, everyone will easily make mistakes.
Fortunately, Taobo was in very good shape in the middle and jungle at the beginning, so he won Donglai with his operation.
Then it will be the last game of the group stage.
TES VS DK!
And Taobo's current record is 5-0. If they win one more game, they will win 6-0 and qualify!
That means the top eight will definitely compete outside.
The Taobao players are in the lounge, preparing for the last game.
Mark was a little excited. He didn't expect that he would have a chance to be there again.
In the last game against DK, Mark really wanted to win.
The players in Taobao also want to win.
As for foreign wars and so on, it doesn't matter. Who can they win? Their goal is to win the championship.
No matter who the wrong leg is, it will not affect their goal.
If you want to win the championship, you will not encounter any mistakes.
Su Hang said: "Come on everyone, no matter you win or lose, just do your best. Seize that opportunity and go all out."
The Taobo team members all nodded.
The game has begun.
The match between Taobo and DK was very tense.
The set reached 42 minutes at one point, and everyone was basically pretending to be Liushen.
In the end, DK won the game, and Taobo failed to make a move.
DK's midfielder and jungler were really strong in the game, and everyone played very well.
That means there will be a playoff!
When netizens saw that Taobo lost, they all posted comments.
"Is Taobo really good at this?"
"You haven't beaten DK yet?"
"Can Taobo work? Can it be won?"
"He felt that it would be good if Taobo lost. Then the second place in the group would qualify, and the top eight would not have any external competition."
"Indeed, it would be boring to fight outside the top eight."
"But he feels that next year's LPL is really not the fault of LCK. He feels that there is no way to play in LPL. LCK is too powerful. Taobo is not in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and even DK is playing in Suzhou.
Hang, is it really certain that we can win?"
"Mark's recent form is very good. He hasn't won yet. Even if he is in Suzhou and Hangzhou, he may not win."
"In the first game, he felt that Taobo could not win. It would be nice to see four LPL players in the quarterfinals playing four LCK players."
Many netizens don’t want to see foreign wars.
That's why RNG drew G2 in S8 and there was a famous scene in the RNG training room.
In fact, when G2 was drawn, netizens were also very happy.
After all, the top eight are not competing outside, so everyone is happy.
"Never go to war outside."
"A foreign war wouldn't look good."
"He doesn't want to see a foreign war, and it doesn't matter if Taobo loses."
"He is worried about whether the LPL will really beat LCK. I feel that Suzhou and Hangzhou will also beat LCK when they are here."
"Indeed. He feels that the LPL is really beating the LCK, and the LCK is too powerful."
"."
Soon, the playoffs will begin.
Team members from Taobo will be there soon.
Su Hang looked at the Taobo players and said: "No need to feel any pressure, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose. They have already advanced to the quarterfinals. Just keep working hard. Even if you lose to DK, it doesn't matter. Anyway, before the finals
They won’t meet DK either.”
Ah Shui said: "Come on everyone!!"
Mark also said: "Come on, come on!!"
In fact, there is no problem with Mark's strength, at least Mark's operation is not bad.
The strength of DK should not be underestimated. He is much better than Taobo in the middle and jungle. Once Taobo is at a disadvantage in the middle and jungle, it will be difficult to win even if the east lane can have a slight advantage.
The core figure Su Hang is not here.
Su Hang is not here, so Ah Shui can take charge.
So Taobo lost initially.
Is this the last game?
The outcome of that extra match will determine whether Taobo will be first in the group or second in the group!
The playoffs were played very quickly.
At the beginning, Rhubarb's Zai Dan directly killed DK's Zai Dan.
Just when netizens thought there was a chance.
In a wave of dragons, Ah Shui was too aggressive in attacking Wei Luo, and was directly hit by Xu Xiu's Syndra. In addition, Uncle San's rhythm in the jungle exploded. There was no suspense in the set, and DK ended the game.
That way.
DK ranked first in the group, and Taobo ranked second in the group.
All four LPL teams advanced to the quarterfinals.
The bad news is that all four teams in the LPL are ranked second in the group, and they all defeated the LCK.
In other words, Jingdong and Taobao defeated LCK teams in one game.
Both RNG and EDG were double-killed by the LCK team.
Especially last year's world champion EDG, who was beaten and crushed throughout the whole process.
The game between RNG and GEN was at least back-and-forth, with a small gap, and it felt like RNG had returned to its best form.
After the fight.
Mark came back, a little disappointed, "I can't afford to be wrong, it's his problem."
Ah Shui said: "His, his, he shouldn't have been in the first wave, he would have lost."
Mark said: "He played two LCK teams and both lost."
Xiaotian said: "It's okay. Didn't they win against G2 when I was there? Don't worry too much, LCK is already very powerful, and DK's level is also very high. Is this normal?"
Su Hang said: "If you lose, you lose. It doesn't matter. We'll have a lottery ceremony later. It's quite comfortable without having to fight outside. Let them just play the LCK! They won't be able to defeat the elites of the LCK!"
Red Crescent Moon was a little nervous, "If you don't want to get T1, just don't get T1, then it won't be a big problem, T1 is too powerful."
Guo Hao sighed, "Samsung is also very powerful. They are even 50-50 in training matches. If we really fight, I don't know if we can win."
The left leg, Xiaotian, both sighed, and everyone also felt a little pressure.
That means that Taobo may be eliminated.
Because of the training matches between Taobo and many teams, it has an advantage when facing DRX.
As for playing a training match with DK? If the two teams are in the same group, naturally they can play a training match.
In the training matches between Taobo and T1, the winning rates were basically 28 and 37 respectively.
The strength of T1 is indeed too great. They have all the boosters in Ludong Road and there is an experienced faker in the middle.
So who can withstand it?
At least the current T1, Taobo does not feel that there is a lot of pressure.
If we really meet T1 in the quarterfinals, it will be bad news for Taobao.
Red Crescent even felt a little regretful.
He should let Suhang continue to play in the LCK and let Mark play in the game to get some skin.
In that case, none of the opponents in the quarter-finals will be as good as those in the LPL, and everyone will be able to win.
But if the top eight teams compete with LCK teams, they may not be able to beat them.
LCK's T1, GEN, and Taobo may not win if they are wrong.
Of course, Red Crescent Moon didn't know it, but there was actually a more terrifying big devil, DRX, who had been awakened since the top eight, and was even more powerful than T1.
Su Hang said: "It's okay, what are you afraid of? The goal next year is to win the championship. Without the championship, it is meaningless. What is the difference between the quarter-finals meeting T1 and the semi-finals meeting T1? If they want to win the championship, they must start from where they are.
Cross over! You must win the East LCK!"
If you want to win the championship, how can you succeed without going through some thorns?
Several LCK teams are indeed very strong, but are they as strong as the current Tobo team?
Su Hang said: "They are also very powerful. There is no chance of winning in the LCK. They can also win in the T1. They can win against anyone. Everyone just needs to give their best. Who can win in the wrong leg? Tomorrow we will play
DK lost two games, but if you lose, you lose, so what? Just fight them!"
Su Hang said: "He feels that their strength is no worse than any other team! T1 is indeed very powerful, and they can beat them! Let's work hard together!"
When all members of Taobo saw what Su Hang said, everyone regained confidence.
No, they are not very strong either.
If there is anything wrong with the bun noodles, it will be done!
Ah Shui said: "It doesn't matter, let's just get started! If you have the ability, you can get T1 in the first game of the top eight."
Dahuang said: "Then do it! The fight will be T1!"
Now, apart from playing GEN, Taobao has a 50-50 win rate, and its winning rate against T1 is indeed relatively low.
If you lose, you lose, so what?
Anyway, they have tried their best!
What's the harm in hitting the beach?
Moreover, who knows that there will be a real fight before the game?
The training matches were all played with regular lineups.
Taobo is very prepared for his ultimate move!
Should it be reserved exclusively for T1’s ultimate move?
What do they have to fear?
As the No. 1 seed in the LPL, Xia Jue's 3-0 victory over JD.com and everyone's efforts during that period of Tao Bo are all visible to everyone.
During that time, all the leg selections in Taobo were too tiring.
Everyone has one goal.
champion!
If you just want to cross T1, it shouldn't be difficult to win the championship!
So, I have nothing to regret.
What is the difference between the semi-finals, the runner-up and the semi-finals?
Is there any difference between the top 16 and the top eight?
It is better to die standing up than to win second place while lying down!
What's more, Taobo may not lose!
If you can draw T1, then fight them!
Just dry and crush T1!!!
Ma Zai, the lottery ceremony for the top eight has begun, Ma Zai!
LPL viewers are looking forward to it.
Because that would mean four LPLs playing four LCKs!
"It's coming, it's coming! The lottery ceremony is coming!"
"Haha, four LPLs playing LCK, it's going to be pretty cool."
"Won't all the four LPL teams be eliminated? It would be funny if they were all eliminated."
"What are you thinking? Is that possible? LPL can definitely win. BO5 is different from BO1. Maybe all four LPL teams can enter the semi-finals! It will directly become the autumn finals!"
And at that time.
Each team member has chosen a leg and is on the stage, preparing for the lottery ceremony! (End of this chapter)
