That's what we do with silver

Chapter 127 All eyes are on, face SKT!

From IG winning the LPL Summer Championship to the official start of S7, there was an offseason of more than three weeks.

However, in order to prepare for the S game, everyone in IG did not rest for too long. After relaxing for a while a few days ago, they soon entered the normal training rhythm again.

During this period of time, teams from all over the world also came to the mainland one after another, and settled into the officially arranged hotels in Wuhan.

All of a sudden, in order to maintain the feel of their respective training, as the highest level game server in China-Top of the Canyon, a large number of professional players began to pour in.

Immediately, the domestic high-segmented anchors and professional brothers collided frequently, and the effect of the program was full, and the entire canyon top became extremely lively during this period of time.

Then, in such a lively atmosphere, time passed day by day.

In a blink of an eye, the S7 play-in match started.

As the third seed of LPL, RNG's schedule has officially started.

Six days later, with the decision of the final promotion team, the play-in competition was announced to be over.

And from the viewer's point of view, if you have to use one word to describe RNG's games in the past few days, that is.

Fish pond fried fish.

Yes, that's right!

RNG's performance in the play-in competition was like a ferocious big shark strayed into a fry farm, using his terrifyingly huge body and razor-sharp teeth to ruthlessly tear apart all enemies.

In the end, they successfully advanced to the group stage with an invincible attitude of complete victory.

Although it was only a play-in match, in the days when there were no matches to watch, it really made countless suffocated viewers enjoy watching.

At the same time, the other three teams that advanced together with RNG in the play-in round are respectively.

C9, FNC and FB.

On September 9, after the finalists, the group draw for the group stage of the entire World Championship was also completely determined.

Group A: IG, SKT, AHQ, C9
Group B: LZ, IMT, GAM, FNC
Group C: G2, SSG, EDG, FB
Group D: FW, MSF, TSM, RNG
As soon as the groups in the group stage were completely determined, audiences all over the world couldn't help but get excited.

Especially the big brothers in Europe and the United States, who quickly started tweeting and started working.

In the LCS-NA division, the owner of the TSM club tweeted that night.

"Oh~~ Such a perfect grouping, it is no exaggeration to say that I have already started to worry about which skin to choose after TSM won the championship."

A well-known commentator in the LCS-EU division responded.

"Hahaha, I have to say that we will never learn the optimism of the NA division. I can't dare to fantasize about champion skins when I can't get out of the group."

The classic EU and NA pinch each other, and it was staged crazily directly on Twitter.

At the same time, on the major domestic forums, the biggest focus of this grouping is all on Group A, which has SKT and IG in the same group.

On the homepage of Stress Bar, various posts are discussing this group in full swing.

[When I saw the grouping, I immediately laughed out loud, waiting for the king of SKT to come, easily crushing a certain team's unrealistic winning streak]

[Bad thing, IG is actually in a group with SKT, the situation is not good, brothers]

[Play SKT?Is the No. [-] seed curse to repeat the same mistakes? 】

[Damn it, I'll play the Triple Crown Demon King at the beginning, this feels like a sign to IG]

[Come here, brothers, let’s start with Boda first, it’s time to test the true strength of IG! 】

[Is there a possibility that this SKT team is completely restrained by IG?After all, Rookie was also the first OGN champion in his life when he stepped on Feike's head in S4 back then]

[Hahaha, the dogs are flustered, IG's winning streak will be crushed by SKT personally]

【…】

It can only be said that at the end of the darkest era of S7, because of the continuous disastrous defeats in the past few years, domestic audiences really had a bit of deep-seated fear of the Korean team.

With 'Koreaphobia' deeply rooted, even if IG's domestic record is already extremely dazzling, the opposite SKT is only the second seed of the LCK.

But when it comes to the actual confrontation, everyone still has a guilty conscience after all. Most people don't have much confidence in the duel between IG and SKT.

In this regard, even if the LPL fans account for the majority of the resistance, the support rate of both sides is barely equal.

Not to mention that there are many forums such as Hanza, Lck, Faker... and so on. Most of them are optimistic about SKT.

In the eyes of those people, even when they came out of the group, it was already acquiesced that SKT had already appeared first in the group, and IG would be beaten mercilessly by SKT.

Even before the game started, many fans of the South Korean team couldn't help being the first to taunt and made a comparison chart of the ability values ​​​​of the five positions. SKT directly defeated IG with five players, demoted IG to nothing, and played directly. Champagne was opened.

All of a sudden, the Korean miscellaneous forces that were severely suppressed when IG won the championship, suddenly restored wildly, and seized a lot of attention on the homepage of Anti-Pressure Bar.

Open the post bar and take a look at the past. Those who know know that the game has not been played yet. Those who don’t know really think that IG has already been defeated and eliminated.

In this way, as the time passed day by day, the public opinion on the Internet became more and more intense.

There are even a lot of weird 'gambling' posts.

[IG? It’s just a pseudo-strong team blown out by the LPL. SKT will definitely win the group stage 2:0, and I won’t win a game, and I, Song Zhiqiang, will stand upside down and have diarrhea]

[What kind of bullshit blue brother, he is short and tall among the LPL top laners. When he encounters a real Korean top laner, he will be blown away. I bet Lancer will be single-killed by Huni at least once in the group stage, yes If you say yes, each of you calls me Daddy, and if you don't say yes, I call everyone in the building Daddy. 】

[Han Za is too arrogant!I'm here to make a bet too! If IG can win a round against SKT, my aunt will immediately send a black silk photo to everyone!Say it and do it! 】

[I can't see Han Za's disgusting face, it's not fake, until the end of the group stage, every time IG wins a game against SKT, I will randomly draw [-] brothers in the building, each with a hundred red envelopes, except for Han Za! 】

【…】

For a while, the match hadn't even started yet, but on major domestic forums, fans from both sides were already in full swing, full of gunpowder.

In this way, in such a fiery atmosphere, the much-anticipated S7 group match finally started.

2017 10 Month 5 Day.

Wuhan Sports Center.

Among the crowded venues, as the opening match of the first round of the group stage, it directly attracted the attention of millions of spectators all over the world.

On the huge live broadcast screen, the names of the teams of the two sides in this game were impressively displayed.

【IG】VS【SKT】

……

On the stage, the teams from both sides have already taken their seats. In the commentary booth, the three commentators of this LPL home game also appeared on the big screen of the live broadcast.

"Hello everyone, I am Zeyuan, the commentator for today."

"Hi everyone, I'm the commentator Remember."

"Hi everyone, I'm Rita the commentator."

In the commentary booth, the three commentators began their routine pre-match analysis, and it was obvious that all three of them were full of anticipation and excitement.

At the same time, everyone from IG sitting in the competition seats saw obvious excitement and nervousness on their faces when they saw that they faced SKT in the first game.

Except Zhao Yun.

That's right, when his teammates were more or less nervous, his expression was uncharacteristically calm.

Such a performance seemed completely different from his usual self.

In the previous LPL games, his teammates were all laughing and joking, but he pretended to be calm, but he was actually panicking inside.

But now, when his teammates are nervous about facing SKT, he doesn't feel nervous at all.

Seeing Zhao Yun's reaction, Ning next to him was stunned for a moment, and then asked curiously.

"Damn it, it's the first time for everyone to play in the World Championships. Brother Yunzi, how can you be so calm! The opponent is Triple Crown Champion SKT, are you really not nervous at all?"

As for this, Zhao Yun directly asked with a smile.

"Why should I be nervous?"

"The mid laner on the opposite side is Faker!"

"Laughing, it's not that I'm playing against him. The mid laner Faker forces me to ignore it. This is what Rookie should worry about. Let's hit the road buddy."

"I heard that Huni, their top laner, is also very fierce."

"Fuck, I don't believe it."

"..."

After some simple communication, the two of them spoke for no more than a minute, but the other four IG team members were all shocked by the strong arrogance leaked from Zhao Yun's words after hearing these words, although they don't know why Zhao Yun Today I am so confident, but after such an interruption, everyone's tension has been reduced a lot.

At this time, the pre-match speeches of both sides were also released on the live broadcast on the big screen.

SKT was talking to Fake. Wearing black-rimmed glasses and a red team uniform, he was still the same as before. His eyes were still plain, with an imperceptible indifference and arrogance.

"As far as the IG team is concerned, I haven't specifically learned about them. I heard that they are the No. [-] seed in the LPL, and they performed very well in the LPL this year."

"What needs attention? I don't think there is anything special that needs attention. As long as we play normally, we will definitely win."

It can only be said that it is very Faker-style speech.

When this pre-match interview screen was released, even though it was in the domestic live broadcast room, it was still full of blockbuster 'SKT Come on' barrage.

And at this time, in terms of the real-time support rate of the game, IG vs. SKT actually showed a support rate of 57% to 43%.

Then soon, under the eyes of everyone's anticipation, BP began.

Just when the first round of bans was over and it was the turn of the blue side IG to choose a hero, the other four IG teammates suddenly realized why Zhao Yun was so domineering.

Because, the top three bans on SKT are.

Galio, Tam, Qinggangying.

They didn't ban the barbarian king!

　Come back from the holidays!

　　Start coding!
　　The World Championship begins!
