Brother Huang and Brother Sun were almost crazy with joy.
The same goes for countless interstellar viewers.
Compared to Gao Ran, they have deeper feelings for Time because they have seen Time grow step by step from his debut to now.
For Gao Ran, his level should allow him to advance to the quarterfinals smoothly.
But for Time, this is a new breakthrough.
On the other hand, the relationship between the commentator and Time is also better. Time is like a godson to them.
"As a result, two players from China have advanced to the top 8 of the StarCraft 2 World Finals..."
"I even doubt whether I am dreaming..."
The commentator looked at this result and said in disbelief.
In the past, Chinese players have not made it out of the group stage in the World Finals, but this year they not only made it out of the group stage, but also entered the top 8.
Time didn't have much time to digest this excitement.
He will face a more powerful opponent tomorrow, and for him, this result is definitely worth being happy about.
But it's not time to be happy yet.
For these players, there is no time for them to prepare strategies now.
When you wake up tomorrow morning, you will have to compete in the top 8. At this point, it depends very much on the players' personal strength and previous preparations.
…
Gao Ran has never slept so well on a finals day.
Maybe I was a little tired after waiting for too long yesterday. After the game against Maru, Gao Ran returned to the hotel and fell asleep after seeing the results of the Time game.
I felt energetic the next day.
After having breakfast and washing his face, Gao Ran went to the match point to report.
The entrance ceremony for the quarterfinals will also be held at 10 a.m. in Katowice.
The interstellar circle is so big, except for Gao Ran, the other players are relatively familiar.
There was talking and laughing in the passage.
As the most important event of the year, the appearance of Gao Ran undoubtedly shocked the entire interstellar circle.
They never prepare for games with random players.
Looking at Gao Ran who was leaning against the wall to relax, he had to sigh that this was a real monster.
The high-energy game will be held in the second game, and the opponent will be Renault.
A talented European Zerg player, truly at his peak age.
It is bound to cause some challenges to high-burning.
After waiting for a few minutes, the live BGM finally sounded!
The contestants also appeared one after another!
The four players in the top half also appeared under the introduction of the commentator!
The first player is Fleme, the new European Zerg who has been ranked among the top three in the world all year round!
This player has been jokingly called "acrophobic" by everyone. He is very strong, but he can't beat high-burning players.
The second player is also South Korea’s new Protoss player Blink.
The first game was played between these two players.
The third player is the European Zerg player Renault, and Gao Ran appears in the fourth place.
Although it was in an away game, it did not prevent Gao Ran from having a high popularity. Countless Chinese spectators stood up and cheered for Gao Ran as soon as he played.
These 4 players will determine a final spot in the top half.
The four players in the bottom half are equally fierce.
The first player is Satan, who was recognized as the strongest player in the world before Gao Ran appeared!
This player even finds it very difficult to do high-burning. He is a player on another level.
His opponent will be South Korea's top human player Cure.
These are also the only two Korean players left in the quarterfinals of this world championship.
Maru, Dark, and Rogue, who everyone was optimistic about before the game, were all eliminated in the top 16.
The third player in the bottom half is also the strongest Protoss player today, Grey!
He is also a young player from Europe.
The last player to appear is the Chinese Terran player Time, who has never made it to the knockout rounds in the World Finals!
The top 8 stand firm.
The audience at the scene also shouted and gave their own shouts.
Cheers for the exciting battle ahead today.
Several commentators from the Chinese division are also talking about the division distribution of the top 8 players.
"Actually, it can be seen from last year that the Korean division is already in some trouble."
“This year it’s even more obvious because there are two more Chinese players.”
"And k, do you think they can compete for the championship? Don't blame me, you can tell it yourself."
Brother Huang talked about it in the live broadcast room.
It is true that the majority of the previous world finals were Koreans.
However, European players are gradually rising, and the competitive level of Korean players is also declining.
Among this year's top eight players, two are from China, two are from South Korea, and the remaining four are all from Europe.
And it is really difficult for these two Korean players to break out of the encirclement...
Like Cure, he has to fight Flime first and then fight the winner of Gaoyan and Reno.
The probability of being killed is no more than 10%...
"This year we are basically all young players, the older one is Cure, and the other seven are not very old."
"Peak age."
During the chat, all the players except Cure and Flime walked off the field.
Gao Ran also did a set of radio gymnastics, stretched his muscles and then started his warm-up.
The next game will be between him and Leno.
Today, Gao Ran expected to beat two Zerg players, Renault and Flime, in a row.
It is a small probability event for Cure to win against Flime.
Among the eight players in the top 8 this time, Gao Ran is a random player. The other seven players include two Protoss players, two Zerg players and three Human players. It is a very balanced version.
There is no such thing as the situation where one race is invincible.
Gao Ran warmed up his hands while watching the match between the two sides on the big screen in the waiting area.
See if any novel tactics emerge.
Cure also tried its best to regain a point in the third set.
But they still lost the game with a score of 1 to 3, and Flime successfully advanced to the next round.
After a short break, Gao Ran finally appeared!
"It's coming!"
"In the 8-to-4 match between Gao Ran and Renault, I think Gao Ran still has an advantage based on the strength of both sides."
"But Renault also has an offensive style of play, so there is still a chance of winning."
Scboy plus Mr. Sed are still a classic commentary combination.
They are going to commentate on all the games today.
In the past, half of the game could be handed over to the second commentary team, but this year's top 8 matches have Chinese players, which is different.
The live shot also showed a beautiful girl.
When this scene appears, all Chinese viewers will smile. Of course, there are also passionate fans who will be itching to hate it.
Ye Jianing came to the scene and was captured by the camera.
There is no doubt that Gao Ran is famous in China, and Ye Jianing is also a world champion, a golden boy, but in the end Ye Jianing did not choose this career path.
Gao Ran knew that Jia Ning was here but had no contact with him.
