The ig coaching staff is fully committed to preparations for the playoffs.
Although the regular season is not over yet, and ig will have to face off against the king team in the coming week, no one has invested even the slightest amount of energy.
Speaking of which, the rules for this year’s playoffs and World Championship quota selections are a bit strange!
Especially in the trials and summer playoffs, the winner may not be able to go directly to S5. Can you believe it?
For example, if the qg or ig team wins the summer playoff championship, and edg wins the runner-up, then the edg team will go directly to the s competition, and the qg team or the ig team will go as the summer champion.
Play trials.
According to the official rules, the first place in the spring and summer playoffs with total points will go directly to the S season (the 1st to 4th place in the spring playoffs are 300, 200, 100, and 80 points respectively. The 5th to 8th place are all 50 points. In the summer)
The 1st to 4th place in the playoffs are worth 450, 300, 150, and 100 points respectively. The 5th to 8th place are all 60 points. The lspl spring championship and runner-up are 30 and 20 points respectively. The lpl promotion game is 10 points.), and the total points are 2 to 5.
They fight against each other to determine the other two places in the S competition.
As for the playoff rules, they have also been revised and are completely different from the spring playoffs.
During the spring season, the LPL followed the NBA's playoff system. The top eight teams entered the playoffs, with the first-place team playing eighth-place, the second-place team playing seventh-place, and so on.
As a result, this led to some teams controlling rankings to challenge opponents, and Oscar night was born. The image of Wei Shen beating his feet and chest against the Demon-Drinking Knife in his previous life was still unforgettable even in S9.
In order to ensure fair competition in the regular season, officials immediately began to adjust the playoff rules to avoid such situations.
The first stage of the bubbling round (knockout): The winner will be determined by the seven or eight regular season players and then compete against the sixth place player.
The second stage of the bubble match (positioning match): The fifth place in the regular season will face off against the winner of the previous round. The winner will play against the fourth place in the regular season, and the loser will play against the third place in the regular season.
The third stage of the bubble competition (semi-finals): The first and second place in the regular season will directly advance to the semi-finals. Together with the two teams that advanced in the previous round, they will form the top four. At this time, the rules will change again! The four teams will compete according to the rules
Ranking will be based on points, with the first place facing off against the fourth place, and the second place facing off against the third place.
The finalists will determine the champion and runner-up, and the losers will determine the third place.
Is it a mess? How can it not be a mess?
It’s both regular season points and playoff points. Ordinary viewers feel dizzy just looking at it. It’s hard for the officials to do it. They rack their brains in order to target the Oscars!
But for the ig coaching staff, it's a bit easier.
Directly advance to the second stage of the bubble competition. The only teams that need to focus on are lgd, which fell to fifth place in the regular season, and snake, which is currently fourth. Then prepare for the trials and that's it!
After all, edg's dominance of the league has really made the major teams a little numb. It has basically been accepted that edg will directly advance to the world championship with the first place in total points.
This is not to say that MAFA has no confidence to defeat edg, but what if they beat edg and win the championship? As long as they are the runner-up, they will still be first in the total points, and then they will still have to go to the trials in despair.
emmm, this is a bit embarrassing. The penultimate round of the 5 summer regular season is also the last round of bo2 for ig. After this game, ig will officially end its regular season journey.
The King team is no longer the young team that was promoted from LSPL in the spring split. The club bosses resorted to borrowing money to lay eggs. The current King team lineup is the original team of the Royal Family. Xiangguo and Xiaohu were transferred there.
rng.
However, this did not prevent the decline of the old royal family. After Uzi left the team, the two Korean players inse and zero were unable to support the team, and they fell into the relegation race again.
This round of bo2 can be said to be the easiest matchup that Jiang Miao has played since entering the professional arena. Inse, since a mistake in Qinggong practice led to a broken leg, the hero Blind Monk seems to have also been affected. Well, the blind man plus the lame man can be said to be the best in the summer game.
A true portrayal.
Inse's original strength began to decline, and the top and middle lanes were suppressed on a daily basis, which further affected the jungle. Combined with the two, Inse had a difficult time in the summer competition, and in the end had to switch to the top lane. However,
It's still hard to make a difference.
Zero's strength is still there, but he is no longer supporting Uzi, but the "world's number one AD" who was promoted by Riot officials in S4: Beef Noodle Generation Victim, namei.
This kind of bottom lane combination can only be said to be quite satisfactory. It can complete the output task when it is advantageous, but it cannot stand out when it is disadvantageous. In other words, they cannot become the point that creates advantages and have no ability to break the game.
As a result, Jiang Miao and Rookie each won an MVP, easily defeating the King team with a 2-0 record, and ig's regular season journey came to an end.
After the last week of the schedule, the LPL summer regular season rankings have been finalized!
First place: edg team, Phantom God remains the same.
Second place: newly promoted qg team, a dark horse.
The third place is ig, the fourth place is snake, the fifth place is lgd, the sixth place is vg, the seventh place is omg, and the eighth place is m3.
The above eight teams will compete for the playoffs and compete for the World Championship spots.
The four teams including we, rng, king and up will compete in the promotion and relegation matches, working hard to continue to retain their LPL seats.
Time flies by, and just as the major teams are busy adapting to the new version, the playoffs have already arrived.
On August 11, 2015, the first round of the bubbling competition: omg, the dark force ranked seventh in the regular season, will start a war with m3!
"Come on, puppy! Listen to Brother Kai and don't get into trouble like before! Get rid of your bad temper and give it a good beating!" Ashimoto called the puppy early, although omg
This playoff journey is too arduous. You need to play from the first round of bubbles to the end to hope for the world championship, but this does not prevent Ashi Ashimoto from having great confidence in this.
Not only fans of Ashimoto Aoi, OMG and Puppies, but also major commentators are looking forward to it!
After a summer of tumultuous court battles, when faced with the call of the playoffs and the World Championship, everyone at OMG seemed to have finally put aside their conflicts and chosen to work together!
The top laner is going away, and the eldest brother is back silently.
The Nakano elixir and the stateless state seem to have passed away with the wind as if "the end of love and righteousness" has passed away!
The Puppy is gearing up, and the Umbrella King is transferred from AD to the support position as the mediator of the team atmosphere.
Many people are saying: The dark forces will revive and the galactic battleship will set sail again.
The first round matchup with m3 was the starting point for them to regain their confidence and regain their form!
The m3 team on the other side is also full of ambitions!
The return of the Great Emperor has excited everyone in m3, and looper's stable state is their backbone. Not only that, the m3 coaching staff has finally finished debugging the lineup before the playoffs.
In the jungle position, Mr. Jiu Yikang appears. In the AD position, the cool and emperor-like bar flower takes the seat, and officially combines with loved to make his debut as the most beautiful person in e-sports!
Sima Laothi, who made a high-pitched speech in the anti-pressure bar and was ridiculed "You can do it, go ahead", then joined the professional arena without hesitation, and thus ushered in his first playoff journey.
"Welcome all Summoners to the first round of the 2015 Summer Playoffs and Bubbles!"
In the host's loud voice, the contestants from both sides took their positions, and the battle was about to begin.
In the first game of bo5, when the puppy took out vn without hesitation, the atmosphere of the entire venue was instantly detonated, and countless spectators cheered!
Even Jiang Miao, who was watching the game through the live broadcast platform at the club, couldn't help but feel emotional.
The player’s natural hero, the player’s hero of faith!
Just like the factory director took out Evelin, the faker showed the Enchantress, and Yue Lun chose Jie.
Changing lanes at the beginning, omg's determination to protect Uzi's development while suppressing looper is extremely firm!
At the sixth minute, the elixir's spider suddenly burst into murderous intent and tried to jump over the tower to kill the looper. Seeing this, Ondi quickly came to support. Unexpectedly, Uzi's E skill took the lead and nailed him directly to the wall.
In an instant, Gogoing's Rambo TP arrived. OMG's four packs and two strong kills m3 Ueno.
Perfect first move, perfect tower defense in turns, perfect head economic distribution!
Omg killed no one, looper and ondi. At the same time, both heads were taken by the puppies, and vn had a great start.
In this regard, m3 never put down its resistance and evened the situation several times. But the stateless Desert Emperor is getting better and better as time goes by! As the current T1 level mid laner, no one knows how terrifying a fully developed Desert Emperor is.
have no idea.
When the time came to 49 minutes, omg made a 0-for-4 perfect team battle and finally ended the game and won the first game of bo5.
"Hunter, what do you think?" Mafa turned around and asked.
"Brother's state has declined seriously. He is still in a stateless state and has the strength of a puppy. But he plays very impatiently and often has no goals at all. He just plays by himself." Jiang Miao shook his head, "If
It will still be like this from now on, I don’t expect omg to go further!”
"Even if they beat m3, they will definitely not be able to pass the vg level. Mata's command is simply the nemesis of such a scattered team!"
During the first game, Wu State was single-killed by Dade, and the old thief double-killed Uzi and Xiaoshan in the bottom lane. It was hard for Jiang Miao to imagine why omg made such a big mistake and gave back the opening advantage with a backhand.
The whole team seemed to have lost its backbone and missed many snowballing rhythm points, which made the game drag on to 49 minutes!
On the other hand, the m3 was also a little confused.
I am sure that VN is at a disadvantage in early laning, so even if I don’t ban, the Czar will not take any action.
But this is Uzi’s vn! It’s a vn with ID bonus!
God knows how much depression Uzi had been holding back, and it all exploded at this moment. In the second game, he got vn again, and Uzi directly started the power training mode. 6-0-6, paired with the stateless 6-1-7 Czar,
Let the game end before 30 minutes have passed.
In the third game, m3 finally thought of banning vn, but it was too late!
The puppy with a strong hand took out the policewoman, and the arry was still the same. The stateless Victor was not to be outdone, and his AOE output was full. Facing the m3, which had lost two cities in a row and had an explosive mentality, omg effortlessly defeated the opponent in 23 minutes.
Open the vote to surrender directly.
"Congratulations, o~m~g!!!"
The host was shouting, and all the OMG fans and puppy fans at the scene cheered.
omg's 3-0 record convinced everyone that the "Galaxy Battleship" was re-starting. Many fans even posted slogans on the forums such as "Black Seven Miracles".
However, in the next showdown with vg, Jiang Miao’s prediction came true.
Mata's cunningness revealed the true colors of OMG, which had little coordination and unclear tactics!
The re-launched Galaxy Battleship ran aground and anchored
The sad look on Puppy's face after the game touched the hearts of countless fans, and the departing figure of big brother goinggoing announced the farewell of "the light of the top laner".
"Lost to vg 1-3, omg bid farewell to s5"
The team that once sang "Light of the Planet" defeated SKT in the group stage, defeated FN with 50 drops of blood, and defeated White Shield 3-0, making Xiaoxiao scream at the top of his lungs "Little umbrella is doing crazy damage under the big brother's crotch! omg!"
If I win one game, I will brag for a month, if I win two games, I will brag for a year, and if I win the White Shield, I will brag for the rest of my life." In the previous life, it was from this moment that it entered a long low period with no hope.
Will anything change in this life?
Jiang Miao didn't know that all Jiang Miao could do was work hard to keep herself bright!
LGD would like to thank VG. This talented team, but whose status has always been ups and downs due to their loose (music) and comic (spectacular) character, LGD gradually regained its status and confidence in this battle.
Everyone in ig gathered in the conference room to watch this duel, because the loser between them was ig's opponent in the next bo5!
"Hiss~"
"lgd is a bit fierce, damn!"
The child god exclaimed, it was a bit too cruel to beat his opponent to the voting point and surrender in just 22 minutes of the first game.
However, Mata's old ways are reflected here. Seeing that the first game is irreversible, he immediately surrendered. Try to ensure that his confidence will not collapse and regroup to start the next game.
As expected, vg's tactical execution in this game was extremely resolute. LGD, who had gradually become optimistic after winning the first game easily, was soon dragged into a quagmire-like rhythm. After playing for forty minutes, vg was 1-1.
equalize the score.
It was from here that LGD woke up and broke out! They completely converted their talents into combat power and showed them to the world.
In the third round, the battle ended in 23 minutes.
The fourth game, which was the match point game, lasted until just over 20 minutes before the desperate Mata surrendered again!
Seeing the explosive state, Snake manager Zuo Wu's scalp was numb, because it was them who were going to face this optimistic team next.
No, they are the only ones who are optimistic.
We are not optimistic at all!
Zuo Wu's mentality collapsed
"OK! Our opponent has come out!"
Mafa clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention,
"We still have two days left. In two days, our playoff journey will officially begin!"
"Indeed, VG is quite strong. They have FMVP champion support Mata, and champion jungler Dandy! But Kakao, you can rest assured, because this champion jungler has moved to the road, he will be beaten severely by our Ah Shui!"
He raised his head and his tone became louder,
"LGD can easily defeat them 3-1! What about us?"
"I don't think we are weaker than LGD, we will only be stronger than LGD!"
