When the players on the CP side saw the crystal successfully pushed away from EDG, they immediately shouted loudly and jumped up excitedly to hug their teammates.
Before today's game, although they had successfully entered the playoffs, winning or losing this game had no impact on them.
However, if they can win today's game, they will set a regular season record in the LPL and enter the playoffs with a complete victory record. This is a very rare record!
The difficulty is not lower than winning the championship, it is even higher!
There will be championships every season, but this kind of record is rare.
As young people, who doesn’t want to do better and who doesn’t like to break records!
It's just that they didn't say it before, fearing to put too much pressure on their teammates, but in fact, they all hoped to win today's game. Now that they have done it, how can they not be excited?
The younger they are, the more they like to show off. This kind of solid achievements are the best capital for them to brag about and can also block other people's doubts.
Although they were not favored at the beginning of the season, nor were they considered a strong team, and were not even included in the playoff discussions, as the schedule progressed, the performance of the five CP players allowed the outside world to see the potential of this team.
, and also saw the strength of the team members.
From being not favored to becoming a dark horse team, they have slowly built it up step by step. For the players, this sense of accomplishment makes them very proud.
"We did it!" JackeyLove shouted to the sky.
At this moment, the five people on the stage were hugging each other, laughing happily, and everyone's face was filled with a smile of joy.
The audience in the audience breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the result and generously sent them blessings.
Miller and Wawa acted as commentators, and they were also very excited at this time.
I just watched an exciting game and saw such a group of young players setting records. As commentators, they will naturally be more impassioned.
"We all say that records are created and miracles are achieved!" Miller shouted with veins all over his neck: "This summer, we saw a miracle! We witnessed the rise of a new team, and they entered the game in the shortest time.
LPL, then created a series of records, and let us remember this team composed of pure newcomers-CP!"
"Young people have unlimited possibilities, young people are miracles, they have created miracles!"
Wawa also shouted excitedly: "Congratulations to CP for entering the playoff semi-finals with a complete victory record. They just need to wait for their opponents in the playoffs to break through..."
"EDG's current ranking is uncertain. It depends on the results of the next game between LGD and QG..."
After Miller and Wawa praised CP, they began to talk about the format of the playoffs. Currently, there are only three teams whose quotas are uncertain, EDG, QG and LGD.
We have to wait for the results of the next game to know the playoff rankings. LGD and QG are both the top teams in the LPL, so the game between the two sides is placed in the last game.
After the match between CP and EDG, it is the match between these two teams.
Comparatively speaking, CP is the team with the fewest fans among these teams. After all, it is a new team. It is already very good to have the impact it has today.
LGD is a long-established club, and the director of EDG himself is very popular. Coupled with the honors the club has received, this team has the largest number of fans among the clubs in the LPL.
QG is similar to CP, but they are very famous in LSPL, so the club has a certain fan base. The addition of UZI has made this club one of the clubs with the most fans.
Two-time runner-up in S3 and S4, UZI's influence at this time is undoubted. He is also the ADC with the most fans in the LPL, and is the Chinese LOL player with the best performance (in terms of World Championship results)!
The number of fans of LGD is less than that of the above two clubs, but they started in Dota, and the players were only introduced this year. Most of them are fans of the club, and the personal fans of the players are relatively small. However, LGD still gained from this year's results.
Many fans.
CP's fans are even smaller than LGD's, but considering that they basically only have one regular season and have the current fan base, they are already very powerful.
As for the Spring Split, it was played in the LSPL. What does it have to do with the LPL?
There are not many spectators in the secondary league, let alone fans!
Today is destined to be a carnival for a group of people. CP fans are happy and EDG fans are happy.
...
EDG fans feel like they are mourning for their offspring. They are very disappointed. They did not expect that their favorite team would lose like this.
In particular, this round always had an advantage. Until the end of the game, EDG still had the economic advantage. The overall situation was an advantageous round, but in the end they lost.
How happy I was before, how sad I am now.
They originally thought that Chen Lang and TheShy finally forced the high ground and could not remove the crystal. Once they died, EDG could launch a counterattack. In their understanding, EDG should win this game...
There was no communication among EDG members. The team members sat blankly on their chairs. PAWN and DEFT looked at the screen in front of them. The red word "failure" was so dazzling.
The factory director held his head in his hands and looked very remorseful. All EDG members' faces were filled with regret and disappointment. They really wanted to win.
The victory in this game does not matter much to Chen Lang and others, but it matters a lot to EDG, which means they have to play one more BO5!
You can't control your destiny. Whether they enter the playoffs as second or third in the regular season now depends on the result of the game between LGD and QG.
Originally, if they won this BO3, they would enter the playoffs as the second place in the regular season, and then wait for the next team in the semifinals.
This feeling of not being able to control one's own destiny is very uncomfortable.
Especially for EDG, although this result is good, it is obviously not enough.
It is acceptable to maintain the top two positions, but now their results need to be judged by other people's faces, which is unacceptable. They can only look at other people's faces, and how can they look at other people's faces?
After all, they are the MSI champions, and they deserve better results in the summer split, instead of having to look at other people's faces to decide whether they want to play one more BO5 like they do now.
EDG has always performed very well in domestic leagues since its establishment. Especially this year, they won an international championship like MSI. The entire team's goal in the summer split is to win the S championship.
Now, the team lost to a newcomer team, and they felt somewhat disappointed inside.
"My, my..." Tong Yang said very remorsefully when he saw the factory director's actions.
"If I could play better..."
In this BO3, he didn't play a particularly big role at all. Although he had an advantage online in the first round, his teamfighting performance was unsatisfactory. TheShy's Kennen's teamfight directly reversed the situation and allowed CP to win.
won the game.
As for the second game, his role is even less important than that of Sword Lady.
Just now, Sword Girl personally destroyed their crystals, and TheShy was also suppressing him in the opposite lane. It can be said that TheShy was suppressing him in the overall situation. koro1 was completely destroyed by TheShy in this BO3!
Meiko appeared as a newcomer. He didn't speak, but his mood was clearly sad.
After a while, the factory director seemed to have adjusted his mentality. He said: "It's not your problem, I didn't play well enough..."
"If I hadn't made any mistakes in the early stage, Sword Princess wouldn't have been so smooth...if..."
The factory director talked about several key mistakes he made in this game. If there was one less problem, they could win the game.
The game is like this, every small rhythm may have far-reaching consequences, paving the way for the victory or defeat of the game.
If the Factory Manager catches him in the first wave and Lee Sin R is not free to connect to Q, TheShy may die, and he will not be so comfortable in the lane, which may affect the performance of the game.
Sometimes a wave of deaths is nothing, but when placed in a critical game, it has a great impact, and may even affect the player's mentality.
Escape from death like that may make players more confident in playing. This kind of effect is to put aside the influence of things in the game, and it is not something that can be reflected by data.
During the laning phase, there is a big difference between dying once and not dying.
Moreover, there was a wave of three people trying to catch TheShy, but he killed one of them. Every little beat made TheShy more and more confident, and his equipment and level did not fall behind.
"You fought very well, it's my problem..." Meiko lowered her head and said sadly: "If I had controlled Sword Princess just now and not been stunned by him, they wouldn't have been able to dismantle her."
"I didn't play well..."
If Meiko's Thresh can control TheShy and is not stunned or killed by him, then Chen Lang's captain will be killed by the factory director, and TheShy will be delayed for 1-2 seconds, then EDG's crystal will never explode.
.
EDG has been playing smoothly here, and the occasional losses are due to the training lineup. They have been carefully preparing for today's game for a long time and have great expectations.
After all, if you win this game, you will have one less BO5. This is a huge advantage in the playoffs, and EDG cannot care less.
Chen Lang and the others came over to shake hands. Different from the dull atmosphere here at EDG, each of them had a happy smile on their face.
The EDG players all looked carefully at everyone in CP. The opponent's performance was indeed very good today and they are a strong opponent.
Especially Chen Lang, this young mid laner, led the team from LSPL to LPL. He personally stole the show in the summer split, selected many heroes, and developed new playing styles!
He is indeed a player with great ideas and excellent abilities. It is only a matter of time for such a person to become a top player.
"Awesome." The factory director shook hands with Chen Lang and said with a smile, "What a good fight."
"Thank you." Chen Lang responded with a smile.
The factory director originally hoped that Chen Lang could join EDG. He also tried to persuade him several times, but the two sides were not destined to cooperate.
Judging from the current results, it is enough to show that the factory director has indeed a good vision and was able to see Chen Lang's potential early.
"We will take revenge in the playoffs," the factory director said.
"Okay, let's play another round then." Chen Lang was quite confident.
If he can win once, he can win twice. He is not afraid of EDG and is never afraid of challenges.
"Come on for the playoffs."
When it was lqs' turn, the factory director and lqs hugged each other. The two had a very good private relationship. The factory director and lqs whispered.
lqs said with a smile: "Let's work together and fight for the playoffs."
According to the rules of the playoffs, if these two teams meet in the playoffs, it can only be in the finals.
Therefore, this is also the expectation of lqs. If they can play against each other again, it means that the championship and runner-up of the summer split will be produced between their two teams.
Returning to the lounge backstage, Abramovich took the lead and said to the team members, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Although we lost, it's not a big problem. We just played one more BO5 game. It's not impossible to win based on our strength."
When Abramovich saw the team members feeling depressed, he smiled and comforted them: "This BO3 exposed many problems, and we still have time to improve. However, we need to pay more attention to the CP team. They are indeed very strong."
"It's stronger than we imagined." Abu added.
"It doesn't matter if we lose today. It's better to come back in the playoffs and expose problems in advance than to expose them later. If there are problems, we can solve them."
The outcome of the matter cannot be changed, so we can only look forward. The factory director clapped his hands vigorously and said loudly: "Let's work hard and fight for the playoffs!"
"Yes, come back in the playoffs." koro1 was the first to respond.
PAWN and DEFT did not speak Chinese well. After listening to the translation, they nodded and said: "Next time we meet, we will definitely win!"
PAWN's eyes were extremely firm, and he remembered Chen Lang.
This person had single-killed him several times in the German Cup. There was also a single-kill in today's game. PAWN had a deep impression on Chen Lang.
In PAWN's heart, Chen Lang is already his most difficult enemy.
Even Wei Shen and Rookie are not as powerful as Chen Lang in PAWN's heart.
After all, both of them were educated and killed by Chen Lang...
Speaking of which, the three of them feel like they are in the same boat?
...
"Here you go, my favorite post-match interview!"
"Brother Lang may be late, but he will not be absent!"
"Don't even think about it today, it must be Brother Lang being interviewed, Rambo mid laner, Captain mid laner, he's so capable~"
"Langbao, Langbao, mother loves~"
"Boy moms, go away, don't want male moms!!!"
"Nowadays, there are more people selling bamboo rats. One is three yuan, three are ten yuan~"
The barrage is full of memes, and players will be interviewed after each game. Last time Chen Lang didn't appear, but this time everyone speculated that Chen Lang would come.
Because his performance today was so outstanding.
Sure enough, living up to expectations, Chen Lang appeared on the screen.
Host Yu Shuang looked at Chen Lang with a wide grin and asked: "Today you won 2-0 against EDG. Do you feel any pressure facing world-class players like PAWN and DEFT?"
Chen Lang shook his head decisively: "No."
"Did you ever think that today's game would go so smoothly?" Yu Shuang asked again.
"Think about it, we have always played smoothly."
"..."
Sure enough, Chen Lang still smells the same.
Yu Shuang was prepared in her heart, and the barrage was not surprising at Chen Lang's answer.
"I feel that my players are no worse than them. Facing any team, I am confident that I will win, so there is no pressure." Chen Lang added.
He directly praised his four teammates and put them on the same level as the world's top players such as PAWN.
These words are actually very arrogant. After all, PAWN and the others are not ordinary players. It is like comparing a newcomer who is just starting out with a player who is on top of the world. The nature is definitely different.
What's more, EDG defeated SKT at MSI, and they are also considered by foreign ESPN to be the strongest team in the world!
PAWN and deft are also considered to be the strongest mid-range and bottom players, the director is the strongest jungler in the world, and the EDG team can be said to have three players who are currently number one in the world!
Chen Lang compared his teammates to EDG, which was indeed very arrogant.
The barrage was also discussing Chen Lang's arrogant words. Although CP defeated EDG, it does not mean that the players on this team are really on the same level as EDG!
It’s normal to win or lose a game. Maybe it’s just CP’s luck this time?
Who doesn’t eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year?
Besides, if defeating EDG can prove that the players of the two teams are of the same level, then EDG also lost a few games to other teams in the summer split. Are those teams really stronger than EDG in terms of hard power?
Not necessarily. Although a BO3 is not as random as a BO1, the outcome cannot be determined by one game. It still depends on the specific playoff results.
Chen Lang's words indeed aroused a heated discussion, and most people still disagreed with what he said.
However, Chen Lang has always been so arrogant, which can be seen in his previous interviews. This is not to say that he is deliberately bragging, but that he is like this, and the audience cannot accept it.
If this were said to other players, it would definitely be criticized, but when it was said to Chen Lang, it seemed normal.
After all, Chen Lang has done and said things that are more arrogant than this~
Therefore, people's inherent impression is very important. In the audience's impression, Chen Lang is a young and frivolous player.
However, he did play well and was very powerful, so the audience was relatively tolerant of him. If he had said such things despite his poor strength, he would have been sprayed all over.
Yu Shuang was already prepared, so she did not continue this topic, but asked another question.
"You are a newly established team. There must have been many difficulties along the way. Now you must have made a lot of preparations to achieve this result. How did you adjust?"
Chen Lang took the microphone and originally wanted to speak, but he laughed first and then said: "It's not difficult, and I didn't make any preparations. We usually train not hard, and we just play casually in training matches, so we have a better mentality."
.”
"Actually, we didn't expect to win all the games and enter the playoffs. We were lucky."
Chen Lang's words, coupled with his hearty smile, seemed to be true to what he said.
But how is it actually possible? If you are lucky enough to win one or two games, can you win more than a dozen games in a row?
This kind of invisible pretense is the most deadly!
It’s clear that he’s bragging about how talented his team is, and he got first place after just playing casually~
Even though Yu Shuang knew that today's interview would not be that easy, the smile still froze on her face. If it weren't for the interview, she would really want to hit Chen Lang. This would be too Versailles.
Yu Shuang: "How do you feel about playing against PAWN, the champion mid laner?"
Chen Lang: "It's good. He is indeed very good. I lost that time in the German Cup, but today I won. It can be regarded as a successful revenge. I am quite happy."
"The offensive rhythm was very strong in the early stage of the first game and we won the game. Why did we choose a developed lineup in the second game?"
"EDG's development lineup lost in the first round. We saw that they chose an offensive lineup in the second round. I wanted to try to see if the late-stage lineup could play. After all, winning or losing doesn't mean much to us. We have to prepare for the playoffs.
, we need to practice more lineups."
"Have you not practiced this lineup in training matches? Why did you choose the two heroes Sword Lady and Captain?"
"No, today is the first time I played this lineup, the main warrior version, so I asked about it when choosing a hero. I chose it if I knew how to play Captain and Swordswoman."
"..."
This statement is simply unreasonable. I used a lineup that I had never tried in training games directly in the game. I was so brave, but I still won in the end. It was so cool!
Moreover, what does it mean that EDG loses when playing with a development lineup? You want to try it?
Isn't this a clear indication that CP can win with a lineup that EDG can't win? Is this a disguised way of praising one's side as being better than the other side?
This interview…
For the audience, it was definitely a worthwhile trip and full of comedy effects!
But for Yu Shuang, it was simply torture...
In the eyes of the audience, Yu Shuang was simply spoiled by Chen Lang. The audience laughed until their stomachs ached when they saw Yu Shuang's heartbroken expression time and time again.
Chen Lang didn't play according to the routine at all, and Yu Shuang didn't know how to answer the call, because if he wasn't careful, he might be exposed by the fans.
As a professional player, Chen Lang also has fans to protect him, but Yu Shuang doesn't have to. She is afraid of saying the wrong thing and being exposed by EDG fans, so she can only try not to talk about these topics and skip to the next question.
Fortunately, she prepared in advance and prepared enough questions, and finally completed this "intrusive" interview.
During the interview, Chen Lang was a devil in Yu Shuang's eyes.
After the interview, Yu Shuang looked at Chen Lang and felt that he was indeed a very good player. It would be perfect if he couldn't speak.
