Chapter 180 The battle for first place in the group

After the first round of the group stage, the VG Training Department immediately threw themselves into intense training.

The second round lasts for a total of 4 days, and according to the rules, all matches of a group will be held every day.

Take Group B as an example. On the 7th, VG will play three games in a row, playing against G2, C9 and SKT respectively.

Of course, there is still the possibility of extra games.

Although it is a 3-0 start and the qualifying situation is clear, no one at VG dares to relax at this point!
The second round of the group stage will be completed in one day, which is a great test for the 16 teams on the players' psychological ability to withstand pressure and their understanding of the version.

In history, the mentality of many teams was severely affected by losing the first game, resulting in several consecutive losses. This example has actually happened.

Of course, understanding the version is also crucial!
Completing the second round on the same day means that the team does not have much time to solve the problems that arise. Once there is a deviation, it will be fatal!

Take last year's C9 as an example. In S5, they scored 3-0 in the first round of the group stage. As a result, they lost four consecutive games in the second round and lost all the playoffs. In the end, they were kicked out and missed the quarterfinals!
Everyone in VG doesn’t want to follow in his footsteps.

Therefore, they trained extremely hard. Basically, apart from eating and sleeping, they just traveled in the canyon.

Time flies, and soon it will be June 10th.

The second round of the group stage will officially start today.

The few days of rest did not reduce the number of spectators in the Municipal Auditorium, and it was still as full as before.

The most competitive Group B will determine the final ranking today, and the number of spectators will naturally be full.

"Good morning, dear viewers!" I remember the unique voice with a Bayan accent said, "Welcome to the live broadcast of the fifth match day of the 2016 Global Finals."

The hallucinogenic commentary tone around him was a bit drowsy, "Today is also the decisive day for Group B in the second round of the group stage. Our No. [-] seed VG in the LPL division will face the final test!"

"Whether we can successfully advance to the quarterfinals depends on the outcome of the game later!"

I remember saying that there was no pressure and the state was very optimistic. "VG won all three games in the first round and now leads the Group B standings 3-0, which means that as long as they defeat the opponent in the next game against G2, they can ensure a qualifying spot. For the quota, the remaining two rounds are about competition for ranking.”

The director also gave the points status of the four groups after the first round of the group stage at this moment.

First is Group B.

G2如今1胜2负，C9则是0-3全败。

As long as G2 loses in the duel with VG, even if it explodes and kills SKT and C9, the result will only be 3-3.

VG's worst score is 4-2.

The top eight spots have been locked in advance.

As for whether to qualify first or second, it depends on what SKT says.

Rox Tigers stands out in Group A, starting 3-0 like VG, followed closely by CLG, and CIS wild card ANX ranks third.

Group C unexpectedly became H2K's world. Yue Lun officially rose to prominence. They also won three victories and had a very high probability of qualifying. EDG, Flash Wolves, and INTZ all had 1 win and 2 losses, and their rankings were extremely chaotic!

Especially EDG, they have been ridiculed by domestic netizens a lot during the off-season.

Now that we have seen the points situation of Group C again, there are also a lot of strange voices in the LPL live broadcast room.

[First they lost to the wild card, and then they were crushed by European H2K. Finally, they managed to get their first win with the support of the provincial team Flash Wolves. I can only say that EDG is awesome! Is this the second seed in LPL? 】

[That’s it, do you still have hope for EDG in the World Championship? S4 Nami Beef Noodles, S5deft Golden Chuan Lan, the AD condition improved this year, the factory director started to get sick, he chose a male gun and was kicked by the Brazilian Blind Monk as a ball, he chose a man and he jumped on the flying arrow, and ran away to the ice big house with his ultimate move If you get into trouble, you have a good way to deal with porcelain! 】

[Before the game, it was said that EDG was assigned to the weakest group and would be able to qualify for the top eight. As it turns out, it looks like there is a high probability of qualifying for the top 16. If not, let’s bring up the fat general. Lian Po is old and can still fight! 】

[I haven’t watched the Group C game for a long time. It’s too nauseating. I’d rather worry about VG]

The rankings of Group D were finally announced.

Samsung, RNG, and North America's No. 2 seed TSM have the same points, all 1-[-]. The three teams have formed an endless loop and usually win or lose each other. The specific qualifying situation must be determined based on today's results!
[Work hard, RNG, don’t learn from EDG. If both LPL teams qualify second in the group, then the probability of civil war is too high]

[I would like to watch Civil War, at least to ensure a semi-final result]

[EDG is still in the top 16, go back to China, don’t go to the top eight and embarrass LPL]

The director ran away after completing a rhythm, waving his sleeves without taking away a single cloud.

As a sonorous and powerful sound came from the scene, the BP session of the first game officially started.

The first game was between SKT and C9.

Lin Yi sat on the sofa in the lounge, staring at the BP panel.

In the ID column belonging to SKT, Bengi's name is clearly displayed in the jungle position.

"They seem to be well prepared today," Brother Long said with emotion, "They are rushing to take first place in the group."

Lin Yi looked serious, "That's right. After all, the second place qualifier has to face the top spot in the rest of the group. Who wants to put more pressure on themselves to advance?"

SKT’s goal in this World Championship is to win the trophy again.

If you encounter a tough situation in the quarterfinals and use up all your cards, how will you play in the subsequent knockout rounds?
All members of VG, including Hongmi, looked solemn. They knew that when Bengi came on the court, SKT was in its closest form!
The pilot shot showed Bengi who had been away from the competition for some time.

Lin Yi can only be evaluated by his ordinary appearance.

He couldn't be called handsome, and he couldn't be called ugly either. He was one of those people who would be lost in a crowd.

The pace of the game between the two teams was very slow. Bengi himself is a pattern-controlling jungler. He mostly plays the role of a tool in the team, maintaining the development of the C position.

SKT has never been known for its offense. What they are best at is switching lanes and teamfights.

There are few teams in the world that can compete with them in these two places.

When playing against SKT, you won't feel a flood of pressure all of a sudden, but as the game progresses, you will feel as if you have entered a suffocating rhythm.

The other party is like boiling a frog in warm water, slowly dragging you into the abyss.

The two teams didn't decide the winner until 48 minutes into the match.

SKT harvested the Ancient Dragon and bulldozed the C9 base in one wave!

"Get ready to play."

Seeing that the crystal had exploded, Jin Wenhyuk stood up and clapped his hands to remind the team members to take the stage.

Lin Yi had already changed from sitting to lying on the sofa in the middle of the match between the two sides.

"It's so slow. This game has been played for almost an hour, right?" He glanced at the TV screen, "49 minutes and 36 seconds. It's really worthy of SKT. The game that can be won has to be delayed a little longer. Brothers, let's not do this. Let’s use it and try to smash G2 to pieces before the ancient dragon comes out!”

"Are you playing policewoman?" Duan Deliang said with a smile, "Come and push the system directly!"

"It's a pity that Xiao Yi doesn't know Draven," Brother Long became interested. "Otherwise, if I take two heads in front, I can see the high ground on the opposite side in 10 minutes!"

Dandy looked disgusted, "Don't let him play. Wait until the first professional player who flashes and catches an ax appears in the professional arena. That would be too embarrassing!"

"Hey, hey," Lin Yi pretended to be dissatisfied, "I asked you to make suggestions, but I didn't ask you to make the show effective."

It is said that the game should be ended quickly, but it is also on the premise of ensuring victory.

As the number one seed in the European division, G2's level is indeed pretty good.

However, there is still a big gap between it and VG.

This time they rarely lasted even 15 minutes!
Lin Yi directly took out the policewoman and demolished the next tower in 8 minutes.

Zven's laning collapsed even faster this time than in the previous match.

In 15 minutes, all three outer towers of G2 were pulled out, and the economic gap increased to more than 3.

The defeat is obvious!

Perhaps knowing that he had no chance of entering the quarterfinals, Perkz openly invited Easyhoon on the public screen. 【1v1】

Hou Ye readily agreed and allowed his four teammates to continue the demolition work in the middle lane. He himself ran to the bottom lane to duel with the extremely optimistic Perkz!

Although the biggest point in this game is Lin Yi, Li Zhixun is also affected by the team's advantage. At this moment, the equipment is still ahead of the opponent.

The end result is obvious.

Easyhoon easily wins!

In the following time, the two teams seemed to completely let go of their hands and began to engage in large-scale 5v5 team battles.

As long as there are no casualties, the battle will never end!

In just two and 10 minutes, the head count exceeded 18.

Many viewers had long been tired of watching the boring Korean-style operations, and suddenly a game with frequent fights and show-offs appeared, and they said they were very satisfied.

[Damn, it’s exciting enough. Although it doesn’t look very organized, it’s still wonderful.]

[Dandy, a blind man, must have done a roundhouse kick too fast. It felt like there was no pause in the air.]

[Why are everyone in G2 following MrY’s trap?Acting now? 】

[MrY, the policewoman, really can’t let him go, the intensity is too high, the other side can’t even touch him]

Killing is always the easiest way to widen the economic gap!

G2 continued to fight with VG despite their inferior equipment. No matter what, they always lost more than they won.

The most important thing is that every time VG takes over a group, it prioritizes the troop line before coming over.

This causes G2 to lose a lot of money every time more players are killed.

The gap between the two teams quickly widened!
In just 27 minutes, the economy of both parties increased to [-]!
"The policewomen are all in four-piece suits, and now MrY is asking who is pregnant!"

G2's three-way and two-tower towers failed to hold on, and were knocked down one after another by Lin Yi and his teammates.

Then VG directly activated Baron.

G2 immediately discovered the movements of the five of them.

Five heroes quickly came to the upper river to stop it, and the two sides fought again in the Dragon Pit!

Lin Yi relied on his deputy W to place five clips on each row of river grass to seal off all routes. He worked with Dandy to take down Baron Nash and then faced the enemy.

"Caitlin's output is too high. MrY's almost all guns are critical hits now. G2's front row can't withstand the damage at all!"

I remember feeling excited, "Only Ezreal, who is in the AD position, is left in G2 to escape. VG's five generals all have the Baron BUFF effect. They want to break through from the middle and end the game in one wave!"

What the hero EZ fears most is a disadvantageous situation. Facing the endless pressure of troops, he can't produce any output at all.

Not to mention the minions blessed by Baron Nash's BUFF.

[Secret Shooting] Hit it without pain or itching, Zven can only watch his base being demolished!
"Before 30 minutes, VG destroyed the enemy crystal. For now, this should be the shortest game in this world championship!" I remember feeling excited, "After this battle, VG has confirmed that it has the top eight. Qualification."

"It is also announced that C9 and G2 will officially bid farewell to the 2016 Global Finals!"

Hallucination rarely raised his voice, "Yes, we will see who can laugh at the end between VG and SKT and get the first place in the group!"

As soon as the game ended, Lin Yi took off his headphones and immediately gave an international look.

Entering the quarterfinals in his first S competition was undoubtedly a surprise to him.

He had never played in the World Championship before, and initially thought they were all strong teams with a similar level to VG.

According to online comments, I also learned that VG was assigned to the death group, which is known as the most difficult to qualify.

Lin Yi was even ready to go home for the top [-].

Unexpectedly, there are twists and turns. There are two paper tigers hidden in Group B that will shatter at the touch of a touch. The only real competitor is SKT!

The next game is right around the corner.

G2 knew that they had missed the knockout rounds, and their retreat was completely cut off. They were very optimistic. Judging from their expressions, they were not inferior to LGD at all, and were even far ahead!
But even so, the game between G2 and SKT was not as vigorous as VG.

Let's face it, SKT's early offense was not very strong.

It's not that their three lanes' laning strength is too weak, but that the team's style is not good at taking the initiative to lead a rhythm attack.

SKT spent most of the time replacing resources, delaying the stop loss until the mid-term, and then used an unparalleled lane switching rhythm to squeeze the opponent's development space little by little, and then gradually won the victory.

If you study the victory curves of VG and SKT, you will find that most of the time VG gains an advantage due to explosive growth.

On the other hand, SKT is rising slowly and slowly.

Lin Yi saw it in the background and lost interest in continuing to watch after 25 minutes.

He understood that the outcome of this game was already determined!
Lin Yi, who was deeply bored, simply took out his mobile phone and started surfing the Internet to see what the Internet thought of VG after reaching the quarterfinals.

[Congratulations to VG, being the first LPL team to advance to the knockout rounds! 】

[MrY is so stable, are you really going to kill the entire World Championship? 】

[I thought Group B would be a strong competition between four teams, but now I find that the only ones who are awesome are VG and SKT]

【European and American backlash(/crying tone)】

[Come on VG, I will smash SKT to pieces later and qualify first in the group]

[It’s really hard to say. In the first round, it was obvious that the two sides were evenly matched in terms of strength, and the team battles were both winners and losers. But in the next meeting, it was Bengi, the double-champion jungler. To be honest, I was a little panicked]

[Afraid of a hammer, just keep it safe and that’s it, Brother Y will take care of you]

[Brother Y is also something you can call me?Called God Y! 】

[MrY really has something. Since his debut, no matter who he fights, he has been suppressing him steadily, and he has never shown any crotch-stretching performance]

[Having said that, he is an AD. This position has too little impact on the situation in the early stage. The strength of the double-champion midfielder combination is still exaggerated. I hope VG can withstand it]

Obviously, at this stage of the World Championship group stage, there have been a lot less voices on the Internet about VG's inability to defeat SKT.

However, there are still some viewers who believe that it is difficult for VG to become the final winner against the complete SKT.

Lin Yi's attention was attracted by the 5v5 team battle that suddenly broke out on the TV screen.

The voice of the English commentator suddenly became louder, "Faker's Victor starts sprinting and moves forward to deceive the enemy's skills. Wolf Karma uses RE to accelerate the group, and Bang stands in the center of the team and outputs madly!"

Ezreal uses the ice fists on his body to cause huge slowdowns on the enemy, and [Secret Shot] continuously tears at the health of the G2 generals.

"SKT's double C is just putting on a show, their damage is very high!"

The three of 96Line have a tacit understanding of each other, and their offense and defense have reached a perfect balance.

G2 was completely defeated.

"SKT won their fourth victory, and they still retain the suspense of qualifying first in the group!"

Seeing the G2 crystal explode, Lin Yi stood up and stamped his feet, getting ready to take the stage again.

The game against C9 went extremely smoothly, and it was even shorter than the game against G2.

In just 24 minutes, Lin Yi and his teammates broke through the enemy's main base, once again setting the shortest end time of this World Championship!
After the VG generals won the game, they returned to the lounge for a while and then returned to the players' seats.

The battle for first place in the group with SKT is about to begin!
