Chapter 331 The quarterfinals!

When the two qualifying teams from Group A were finalized, the draw ceremony for the knockout round kicked off quickly.

Wawa and Miller in the chat looked solemn after receiving the prompt from the broadcaster, and then Wawa said, "The lottery ceremony should be about to begin."

"Yes."

Miller nodded: "There is actually only one specific knockout rule, that is, teams in the same group in the group stage will not be divided into the same half. If we meet again in China, we will have to wait until the finals."

"In addition, the competition area protection system does not apply to the knockout rules, which means that there may be civil wars between the major competition areas."

After Xiaowa made a supplement, she showed a smile: "It is worth mentioning that among the eight teams in the knockout round of this World Championship, the team that entered the quarterfinals of our LPL surpassed the LCK for the first time, and there were only two teams in the LCK. From a probabilistic point of view, our division has a greater chance of moving forward."

"Of course, the details still depend on everyone's performance in the knockout round."

As the baby's voice fell, the official staff of the fist officially started the lottery.

Two seed pools, corresponding to the No. [-] seed and No. [-] seed of each of the four groups.

At the same time, the big teams are also watching this ceremony related to their fate in this World Championship in each other's lounge or temporary training room.

What is more interesting is that all three teams participating in the European competition have entered the quarterfinals.

This means that among the top eight teams, not only the number of LPL teams exceeds that of LCK, but even Europe.

FNC, VIT, G2, Europe told everyone with their strength, this time they should not be underestimated.

The first lottery was drawn by the KT team from the LCK.

According to the rules of the lottery, the four No. [-] seeds will first determine each other's half districts.

When KT was drawn, the remaining three teams except EDG were all tight.

Although EDG has never had a face-to-face formal confrontation with KT, there is already a lot of friction between Li Luo and deft.

Both sides have a better understanding of each other's strength.

In the situation where EDG is no longer Wuxia Amon, it can be said that the two teams are in a state of "mutual fear".

In the next second, a familiar black lottery came into view of the public.

In the backstage lounge of EDG, Abu raised his eyebrows: "Sure enough, it's on the same level as KT."

"The probability of getting this kind of lottery is [-] to [-]. Whoever is drawn can fight whoever is drawn. It doesn't matter. If I get AFS, I still don't want to fight."

Li Luo smiled and said.

He said this not because he thinks that AFS is better than KT.

During the intercontinental competition, EDG had played against AFS. Whether this team is strong or not, Li Luo felt like a bright mirror in his heart.

Compared with AFS, Li Luo wants to encounter KT more. The reason is that the styles of the teams are different from each other.

Teams like AFS can only operate against them, and the players in such games don't really have much passion.

KT is different. As the famous fighting team in the LCK this year, Li Luo really wants to go head-to-head with it.

Of course, the premise is that KT can really enter the semi-finals.

The first half area has been finalized, and there is no suspense about the second half area.

AFS and the IG team are in the same group.

When all the No. [-] seeds are in place, the moment of real tension for the major teams will come.

With the appearance of the first lottery, the VIT team logo appeared in the hands of the drawer.

In front of the commentary, Baby's brows stretched out: "The second seed in Group A, because of the half-district rules, VIT can't be divided into the upper half, so his opponent will be AFS in the second half."

"Yes, VIT performed well in the group stage, and their style is also very aggressive. It's not easy to say against AFS."

As far as Wawa and Miller are concerned, they are happy to see a reckless man like VIT who is full of uncertain factors to meet the Korean team.

Think about the rabbit team in Europe last year, didn't they almost overthrow SKT.

Then came the second pick.

FNC from Europe.

According to the rules and order, the opponent FNC will face in the knockout round is the KT team.

Followed by the third pick.

At this point Wawa and Miller frowned again.

According to this situation, civil war has no way to avoid.

And because of the rules, it can be said that RNG's opponent has been determined.

It was last year's world champion, IG.

After all, there is no way for RNG to be in the same half zone as KT, and a group with IG is already a certainty.

Then the team that is in the same group as EDG can only be...G2.

The third seed from Europe.

"Good sign, what the hell."

In the EDG lounge, meiko's eyes lit up.

There is no need to kill brothers in a civil war. Eight into four will encounter the weakest of the four second-seeded teams outside the field. There is no doubt that this is the top pick.

Li Luo took a look at his teammates and found that even the coach Abu was very satisfied with this pick, and everyone seemed quite happy.

It's just that because the EDG players are relatively restrained, they didn't show much.

Seeing this situation, Li Luo couldn't help but feel emotional.

Only by becoming the party involved can I understand the feeling when RNG, who was the No. 2 seed before the rebirth, was drawn to G[-].

Regardless of the memory factor, this is the best pick.

Although G2 was slaughtered by IG with a score of 3-0 at the time, G2 is really not weak, especially in the S8 version.

Such a team of goons just fell into their hands...

Gee.

Li Luo stroked his chin thoughtfully.

"In that case, IG and RNG are going to have a civil war. In my impression, IG has suffered a lot under the hands of RNG this year. Although it is often full, IG is indeed suffering all the time."

Ming Kai thought for a while and said: "RNG still has a certain degree of restraint against IG on a certain level, but...the current World Championship version...to be honest, it's not easy to say."

Of course, professional players will not look at every game from the perspective of ordinary passers-by.

For professional players, judging which of the two teams is strong and which is weak has nothing to do with the historical records of the two teams. The key lies in the recent state of the team.

And even if a team loses, there are different ways to lose.

Some teams lose the game because of the ups and downs of a certain player's personal state or the miscalculation of the bp strategy.

There are also some teams who obviously got a lineup with a strength similar to that of their opponents but still lost the game.

There are also teams that are clearly leading in kills all the time, but the economy has been unable to catch up. Players always feel that there will be endless pawn lines in the middle of the game, and they have been working hard for the pawn lines. It was found that the defense tower on that road was inexplicably consumed by minions.

Therefore, including Li Luo, they will be more optimistic about IG in this civil war confrontation.

It's just that the viewers and players have different perspectives and ways of looking at the issue. When the civil war was finalized, fans of both sides on the Internet still had "unfriendly exchanges" or even "spraying each other".

Relatively speaking, EDG's rhythm is much smaller. In the next few days, apart from spending a little time going to Gwangju, the next competition venue, EDG can concentrate on training most of the time.

The personal rank training environment of Hanbok is still bad, and EDG has also reported this problem to the official, and the official response to this is apparently positive, and immediately banned several outrageous jokers.

But the chaos in the rank has not lessened.

When the EDG players reacted again, the person in charge of the Korean LOL branch was obviously a little impatient, saying, "I have already put it into action, what else do you want, if you are not satisfied with this, then they There's no way."

Fortunately, EDG won all the group matches, the reputation of a strong team throughout the year is also there, and the training match is also full.

Of course, most of the training games were played against his two brothers. Don't look at the fans arguing on the Internet. In private, the players would go out to have a party and improve the food.

Time flies and it is the eve of the knockout round.

The match between EDG and G2 was scheduled for the third day.

The first day of the knockout round was a duel between AFS and VIT.

The next day was the LPL's civil war.

The last day is the duel between KT and FNC.

When Li Luo is free, he will look at the whole work in the European and American divisions to soothe and relieve his mood.

The atmosphere in the domestic e-sports circle is a bit too serious compared to those in Europe and the United States.

The three knockout teams in Europe have been hopping on Twitter recently.

In the eyes of some domestic audiences, they may feel that they have been ridiculed, and they may feel that they are pretending.

But for European audiences, they have no malice, they are just used to it, and the cultural differences between regions show the difference in mentality between them and Asian audiences when facing competitive events.

It’s like G2’s mid laner Ah P, who shouted at EDG before the start of the game. He didn’t directly provoke EDG, saying something like let EDG wash his neck clean, but cleverly told EDG that they would at least fight in BO5 Get a small score, so that you can go deeper to prove that the European division is bigger than the LCK.

The other two European teams are also insinuating and taunting the LCK.

The LCK viewers were about to explode, but there was nothing they could do about it.

They can only endure the matter of "the number of teams entering the knockout round", and then pour their anger on GEN.

There are endless abuses against GEN on the forum, and various hanging pictures are also buzzing. Some people even put the sentence that GEN released when they lost the first game, "We will not lose a game in the future, and we will start with a 5/1 record. After qualifying in the group stage, "P got on the LGD team logo, making LGD popular internationally.

Weishen, who has already switched to eating chicken, has also been attacked by countless people, and his own reverse power has become a joke among the audience recently.

Under the cultural integration of various competition areas, the knockout round officially kicked off.

AFS held back their enthusiasm, and expressed in the media a long time ago that they would leave work early with a score of 3-0 and win VIT without losing a game.

This is a battle of dignity stemming from the second seed of the LCK!
However, when the knockout round officially started, the result of the collision between these two teams surprised countless people.

"Hey, it feels like this team has become more aggressive after entering the knockout round."

In EDG's temporary training room, Xiaotian sat on a chair and said dumbfounded.

Following his gaze, he saw that the score between the two sides on the field had suddenly become 2-0.

In the first game, VIT almost tyrannized AFS, playing exaggerated head ratios, and the economic gap between the two sides at the end of the game also reached a terrifying [-].

This one alone made the official commentators of the LCK scream.

In the second round, the two sides were quite anxious, but VIT's fast-paced attack, which beat the master to death, still made it difficult for AFS to parry. In the mid-term, AFS had a chance to reverse the disadvantage, but their disadvantage of not being strong enough to attack was fully exposed.

If VIT gives them a little more time to operate properly in the mid-term, then AFS seems to have a chance.

But VIT really does not give a chance!
Not to mention the Korean audience.

Even European audiences were dumbfounded.

Is this still the powerful South Korean division they knew?
For this kind of result, Li Luo can only say that it was unexpected and reasonable.

The AFS team is very dependent on the rhythm of the jungler Xiao Sprite.

But the two of Little Sprite fell into the fast-paced attack of the VIT jungler. VIT had obviously studied them thoroughly, so they used the fast-paced jungler, and gave the jungler a very high priority.

The AFS mid laner Kuro likes to play that kind of developmental mid laner, but he is defeated by VIT's assassin type mid laner.

Seeing this situation, everyone in KT who was in the temporary base was under great pressure.

When did their LCK division in the Republic of Korea have this kind of pressure?
Originally, according to their script, it was already written. AFS abused VIT 3-0, and then killed any one of IG or RNG, and directly advanced to the finals. Their KT overthrew EDG in the upper half. In the end, the two Korean teams Successfully joined the LCK finals.

In the end, AFS told them, wake up, this beautiful vision has just begun and seems to be coming to an end.

In Li Luo's impression, before the rebirth, although the AFS met was not VIT, it was also a European and American team.

C9 from North America also bloodbathed AFS with a 3-0 record at that time, which shocked countless people and made C9 the real light of North America.

Judging from the result of this game, Li Luo might even be a little worried about KT.

要知道当初FNC可是3比0干碎了把AFS3比0给干碎了的C9的。

The relationship between victory and defeat is listed slowly, KT... It's hard to say.

However, AFS did not lose as badly as Li Luo had imagined. In the third game, they pulled back a victory, and at the same time, in the fourth game, they crushed the LCK fans who had just ignited their hopes.

The VIT team, which was eliminated by Li Luo before his rebirth, miraculously advanced to the semi-finals!

The duel between IG and RNG has undoubtedly become the highlight of the world's attention.

Especially fans in the LPL division, after seeing this grouping, a bold idea suddenly sprouted in their minds.

Could it be that this year's S race...

Did they have a chance to see that scene?

　Come on, come on, I almost got separated today, I'm so scared
