what the hell

Chapter 294 World finals, wait and see!
Regardless of whether Cuzz is acting or not, the factory director will play according to the normal process.

Anyway, the position of the jungler is quite special.

Which lane does gank focus on, whether its style is offense or defense, and whether to actively invade these things depends on the specific heroes, lineup, and pros and cons in the game.

There is no such thing as 'exposing personal abilities'.

Two more days passed.

All the teams have arrived and trimmed up to start recording the promotional video.

This time it was just the opening short film, there was no trash talking, and it didn't take much time.

The factory director and Xing Dao went to the designated location to shoot an exterior scene, and each recorded a dubbing, and this link was completed.

9 month 29 day.

After rounds of melee, the finalists reached the final stage.

All kinds of wild cards, whose names are hard to remember, are obviously here to join in the fun. Facing the teams in the mainstream divisions, they haven't won a single victory.

IG, C9, and FNC all advanced.

The last qualification to advance to the group stage was won by the Vietnamese big brother GAM.

Wait for all the battles to end, after playing a description of the competition system.

The big screen switched to the group stage draw.

AJ, an ancient handsome boy, came on stage in a white shirt. According to the arrangement of the host, he scrambled up the balls with the team logo, took them out one by one, and displayed them in front of the camera.

"nice!"

The factory manager looked at the confirmed group and thought it was a good sign.

"It's really good." Xing Dao thought so too.

"We can try SKT's quality first, make them the second child, and we will be comfortable in the back." Meiko said the most ambitious words with a smile.

"Hiss..." Xing Dao inexplicably felt that there was something wrong with this sentence: "What do you mean when they become the second child, we will be comfortable behind us?"

"?????"

"???"

"Depend on!"

"Can this be opened?"

All EDG staff complained.

"Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, I don't mean that, okay!" Meiko quickly quibbled: "I mean, if SKT is the second in the group, it will meet the other first in the group, and it may be eliminated."

There are two avoidance principles for the World Finals.

One is competition area avoidance.

The other is the avoidance of the same group.

The so-called competition area avoidance refers to teams from one competition area, and the group stage must be separated.

For example, if LPL has a No. [-] seed IG this year, then IG must be assigned to the group without other LPL teams.

Avoidance in the same group means that in the knockout stage, two teams that advance from the same group cannot appear in the same half.

This kind of competition system guarantees the viewing experience to the greatest extent.

And provide more learning and improvement opportunities for the lower-ranked teams.

The second in the group can't beat the first in the group in the initial stage. After playing against other teams, gaining experience, studying the version, and practicing the new tactical system, they may be able to complete the counterattack.

There is another aspect.

That is, it is possible to form a closed loop between teams of the same level.

There is a situation where A can't beat B, B can't beat C, and C can't beat A.

If you let B and A fight all the time, although the skills are not as good as others, there is nothing to say if you lose, but it will always feel a bit dull.

Swapping half zones and fighting against other teams will obviously be more exciting.

This time.

EDG was assigned to Group A. The teams in the same group were Telecom SKT, Red Pegasus AHQ, and North American C9 who came up from the play-in match.

Group B is LCK No. [-] seed LZ, North American IMT, Rabbit MSF, and LPL No. [-] seed IG.

Group C is the European optimistic family G2, SSG, RNG, and the Vietnamese big brother GAM.

Group D is Lightning Wolves FW, TSM, WE, and the fourth is FNC with the most brilliant record in history.

"The South Korean team in BO1 is easier to deal with than in BO5, so it must be won."

Abramovich assigns tasks to the players: "Don't be careless when playing against AHQ and C9, don't lose points to them."

"No problem!" Ah Shui was very confident.

In addition to training with strong teams.

EDG took over all the appointments in the mainstream divisions.

It's just that the number of games has been reduced, and the focus is on testing and finding out the bottom line, which can be regarded as familiarizing yourself with the opponents you may encounter.

C9 is the third seed in North America. Although it is a bit whimsical, it is obviously lacking in hard power. Even Jensen, who is in the mid laner position, was suppressed by Scout.

You know, the European and American divisions are famous for a dharma king with four eyes.

If you can't play in the middle, the probability of carrying from other positions is basically negligible.

As for Taipei Red Pegasus AHQ...

It can only be described in four words.

— Vulnerable.

This is not carelessness, but a fair evaluation based on the standards of both parties.

Even if C9 and AHQ have reservations, it will be difficult for EDG to overturn if they play seriously with a regular lineup.

Regardless of the analysis of the host, the commentator, or the discussion in the post bar and the forum, it is believed that EDG can advance to the knockout round as the number one in the group.

In Group B, the most promising is obviously LZ, followed by IG.

Group C is a group of melee, sitting on SSG with the leader An, RNG with the top wild king MLXG and mad puppy UZI are evenly divided in terms of public opinion.

As the No. 2 seed in Europe, G[-] is not a vegetarian.

Vietnam's big brothers have the weakest lineup on paper.

But in the S2 season, this group of bandits faced the fear of being "unbeatable and thrown into the mine". .

Group D is relatively weaker, but it is also very interesting.

WE's strength is not in dispute.

Lightning Wolf FW is still not weak.

As long as the North American god TSM enters the World Championship, it has never missed the quarterfinals.

The last FNC...the so-called rotten ship has three thousand nails, the S1 champion is also a genuine S game champion with an exclusive skin, isn't it?
simply put.

The largest number of EDG fans sat firmly on Diaoyutai.

Small IG fans are full of expectations.

The mentality of RNG and WE fans is up and down. They both want to start the group stage and are worried that the team they support will lose.

July 10, 5 p.m.

The 2017 League of Legends World Finals officially kicked off at the Wuhan Sports Center, which covers an area of ​​more than 8 square meters and once hosted the Women's World Cup.

on the big screen.

First, a magnificent bird's-eye view of the Yangtze River was unfolded.

A few seconds later, the picture zoomed in instantly, passing the ancient gardens hidden in the mountains and the bridge across the Yangtze River, perfectly integrating the buildings of the two eras into one.

Accompanied by the Legends Never Die (Legends Never Die) theme song, a figure wearing an EDG team uniform with Clearlove7 printed on the back appeared in the center of the camera and gave a speech.

Next.

Europe's No. [-] AD player Rekkles, Crazy Dog UZI, Anzhangmen, Xuanming Erlao, Bilson and other veterans appeared one by one, expressing their desire for the championship.

The last frame.

It was Xing Dao and Faker looking at each other from a distance in the mist.

"People say that if you beat me, you can become a legend, but I don't think that's the case. From the time I beat Ambition in my first game, I have maintained the number one position for a long time. That's why people regard me as a legend. reason."

"So, to become a legend, you have to beat a player like me many times."

Faker turned his body half sideways, and read this passage in a calm voice.

At this moment.

Only then did Xing Dao read the only line: "Then, let us wait and see."
