Stop contacting LPL, we are so unfamiliar!

Chapter 293: The day when Yusanjia was destroyed, when was LPL resurrected? MSI has another promising year!
"BrokenBlade, welcome to the G2 team."

"I believe your arrival will definitely make our G2 team's journey to three consecutive world championships smoother!"

"But your ID is indeed a bit too long. How about we just call you BB from now on? It will also look more friendly."

As the captain of the G2 team, after the newcomer BB joined, Mingrui naturally welcomed BB as soon as possible, and he was very excited and looking forward to BB's arrival.

The reason is very simple, that is, BB is indeed very strong, and he is definitely a player with a promising future!

BorkenBlade, as a talented boy born in 00, actually made his official debut with the RBE team in the TCL Turkey Division as early as 2016, and successfully won the runner-up in the 2018 TCL Summer Finals.

Although BB ultimately lost to the champion SUP team of the TCL division and failed to qualify for the 2018 League of Legends Global Finals, his performance throughout the summer season was sufficiently impressive that he successfully completed his "newcomer debut" to The transformation of “fame”.

Then, he successfully received invitations from the European G2 team and the North American TSM team, and finally chose to join the G2 team and became the substitute for the champion top laner Wunder.

Although under normal circumstances, even the runner-up top laner in the wild card region may be several levels behind the top laners in the four major regions, BB's strength is really extraordinary.

BrokenBlade is very offensive and is very good at using warrior top laners, such as Raven, Dao Mei, Qinggang Shadow, etc.

As for the playing style, it is very similar to this year's world runner-up top laner, Theshy player from the IG team!

Therefore, this is the most important reason why BrokenBlade is favored by G2 boss Carlos and is also expected by G2 captain Dark.

After all, after experiencing the S8 World Championship Finals, although they didn't say it clearly, the strength gap between Wunder players and Theshy players was still very obvious.

And if in the 2019 international competition, the G2 team can have a player in the top lane who does not lose too much to Theshy in the laning stage, then the G2 team's journey to win the championship will become smoother!

"Of course it's no problem. In fact, my former teammates have always called me BB."

Hearing the kindness from Dark, BB said with surprise and excitement, and then under Carlos' arrangement, he sat next to the substitute jungler Jankos.

At this point, the G2 team’s 2019 roster has been officially finalized.

Coach, YoungBuck.

Top order, Wunder.

Jungle, Dark.

Mid laner, Caps.

Bottom lane, Perkz.

Auxiliary, Hylissang.

Substitute top laner, BrokenBlade.

Substitute jungler, Jankos.

As the entire G2 team was assembled, Carlos also took the opportunity to announce a few things to everyone before everyone officially started preparations for the new season.

The first thing is that the LCS.EU division has completed its name change. In the new season, they will no longer share the three letters LCS with North America. Instead, they will directly change to the LEC division, which is the League of legends European Championship. String English abbreviation.

The second thing is that the entire 2019 LEC Spring Split will officially start on January 1 and last until the end of the finals on April 18, a period of three months.

The third thing is that the entire LEC Spring Split will continue to use the double-round B01 format, and then the top six teams will be selected from the 10 teams to enter the playoffs. As for the playoffs, the format will also be a double-elimination format. Just adapt to the upcoming 2019MSI competition in advance!

"One more thing worth mentioning is that our playoffs will be a BO5 format starting from the first round."

"But you have also heard that our regular season is BO1, but the playoffs are BO5, so the switch between the two game methods will definitely cause some trouble in your daily training and tactical arrangements."

"But the competition rules are very fair to all ten teams in the LEC, so I hope you can continue to maintain the momentum of being a world champion and strive to perfectly win our G2 team's fifth championship in the LEC division, and win Qualify for the No. [-] seed in MSI!"

Boss Carlos said loudly, which immediately made every G2 player's blood boil.

After all, they want to continue to consolidate the G2 dynasty, so they must continue to win the next LEC Spring Championship, the 2019 MSI Championship, and the final S9 World Championship no matter what!

Therefore, after some mobilization by the boss and coach, on January 1, all members of the G4 team finally officially entered their preparation mode before the start of the new season.

With the G2 team based on the S8 championship lineup and the introduction of talented top laner Broken Blade, with the official start of the 1 LEC spring regular season on January 18, the remaining nine teams in the entire LEC division will once again feel The fear of being dominated by the European overlord of the G2019 team!
……

From January 1th to March 18st, the two-and-a-half-month 3 LEC spring regular season finally came to an end. The final regular season rankings of the LEC division and the playoff list were finally released.

No.1, G2 team, record 13-5!

No.2, OG team, record 12-6!

No.3, FNC team, record 11-7!

No.4, Team SPY, record 11-7!

No.5, VIT team, record 10-8!

No.6, Team S04, record 9-9!

Judging from the record, the G2 team is not invincible because they have not been able to win all 18 B01 games.

But only those who have watched the game know how terrifying the "not invincible" G2 team is!
Because among the 18 B01 games in the entire regular season, Dark player only played in 9 of them. As for the remaining 9 games, the substitute jungler Jankos took the stage.

And the most terrifying thing is that even when substitute jungler Jankos came on, he successfully won 9 of the 4 games.

But the most terrifying thing is that the five games Jankos lost were all due to the lack of coordination between him and the substitute top laner BrokenBlade!

Therefore, after going through the internal arrangement and combination of the G2 team, audiences around the world understood the strength of this year's G2 team.

That is……

Dark paired with Wunder, invincible!
Dark paired with BrokenBlade, invincible!
Jankos paired with Wunder is almost invincible!
Jankos paired with BrokenBlade is the level a "normal team" should be!
But even though audiences around the world have discovered the "weak links" of the G2 team, they still feel increasingly desperate.

After all, they only need to use their brains to understand that unless the G2 team deliberately lets two substitute players come on stage for training, it is impossible for the G2 team to find any breakthrough!
However, for the LPL division, which also ended its spring regular season journey on March 3, they did not take it seriously at all because of the strength of the G31 team.

Because in the eyes of countless LPL fans, they still have considerable hope of winning this year's LPL division, at least in the upcoming 2019 MSI mid-season!
The reason is very simple, that is, this year's LPL competition area has ushered in a major change that has completely changed the world!
To sum it up in one sentence, the three imperial families abdicated and the new four emperors ascended the throne!
The top eight teams in the 2019 LPL Spring Regular Season and the teams that finally entered the LPL Spring Playoffs are as follows.

No.1, FPX team, record 13-2.

No.2, IG team, record 11-4.

No.3, TOP team, record 11-4.

No.4, RNG team, record 10-5.

No. 5, Team WE, record 10-5.

No. 6, SDG team, record 10-5. No.7, EDG team, record 9-6.

No. 8, JDG team, record 9-6.

And this regular season ranking is the key to igniting new hopes for the world championship in the hearts of all LPL fans!
The reason is very simple, that is, FPX team, IG team and TOP team, as well as JDG team, which became the fourth seed of LPL in the World Championship last year, have shown better performance than RNG team, WE team and EDG team in this spring. Strong strength!
It seems that this ranking has nothing to do with the "World Championship", but the logic is very "logical", that is, the Yusanjia team that the G2 team defeated in the previous two years began to be defeated by the "New Four Emperors" team this year Hammered.

Taken together, it means that the strength of the G2 team is almost the same as that of the new Yonko!

So for the majority of LPL fans, if the new Yonko can really compete in this year's international competition, then they will have a good chance of defeating the G2 team and helping the LPL division win the world championship!
When he saw the logic of LPL fans, Mingrui just wanted to laugh. After all, their idea was basically equivalent to "my friend is awesome, so I am awesome too", which was very outrageous.

But Mingrui has no time to argue with these "logically touching" LPL fans, because with the arrival of April 2019, the more intense and intense playoff schedule has finally officially begun!
On April 2019, 4, the first rounds of the LEC Spring Playoffs and the LPL Spring Playoffs started successively.

In the LPL division, the JDG team defeated the WE team with a score of 3 to 1. At the same time, although the LPL division also used a "double-elimination competition system" in the playoffs, it was a "double-elimination tournament for the top four", so WE The team was immediately declared eliminated.

In the LEC division, the FNC team defeated the VIT team 3-0 and took the lead in advancing to the winner's bracket of the playoffs.

April 4th is still the first round of the playoffs.

In the LPL division, the SDG team defeated the EDG team 3-0, ushering in the first major upset in the LPL playoffs.

In the LEC division, the SPY team defeated the SK team 3-1 and successfully advanced.

April 4th, the second round of the playoffs.

In the LPL division, Zeng Qi remembered Mingrui's "teachings" during the offseason and successfully fulfilled his promise to Mingrui on this day, leading the JDG team to successfully defeat the RNG team with a score of 3 to 2 and successfully advance to the fourth round. powerful!
In the LEC division, the upper group FNC team defeated the SPY team 3-1, and gained the opportunity to compete with the loser between the G2 team and the OG team to qualify for the finals.

April 4th is still the second round of the playoffs.

In the LPL division, the SDG team failed to continue their dark horse status and was blocked 3-0 by the TOP team led by the golden left-hand Knight.

At this point, the top four of the LPL Spring Split were officially born, namely the FPX team, the IG team, the TOP team and the JDG team, and they have also officially secured their throne as the "Four Emperors" of the LPL.

In the LEC division, the G2 team defeated the dark horse OG team in the regular season 3-0 without any suspense, and directly advanced to the finals of the LEC Spring Split!
At this point, the first and second rounds of the playoffs in the two divisions are over, and then they enter a week of preparations at the same time.

Then, on April 4, the smoke broke out again in the two divisions.

In the LPL division, when the JDG team faced the FPX team, which ranked first in the regular season, they once again continued their black eight miracle, defeating the FPX team with a score of 3 to 2, and successfully advanced to the finals of the winner's bracket.

In the LEC division, the FNC team lost to the OG team with a score of 1 to 3 and was eliminated. After winning two consecutive runner-up places, the FNC team successfully dived into the third place in the LEC division this year, and also lost the second seed. opportunity to participate in the 2019MSI.

On April 4th, the LEC division will have a day off to allow the OG team to prepare for tomorrow's finals with the G14 team.

In the LPL division, the TOP team also lost to the IG team with a score of 1 to 3 and fell into the loser group. It was also the third time they lost to the IG team after being defeated by the IG team twice in a row in the German Cup.

April 4th is a crucial day for both major divisions, namely the upper bracket finals of the LPL division and the finals of the LEC division.

In the LPL division, the JDG team failed to continue the black eight miracle after all, and was swept by the IG team with a score of 3-0, and then fell into the loser group.

In the LEC division, when the G2 team was about to compete with the OG team again, they still showed no mercy. Just like last time, they directly crushed the OG team with a score of 3-0 and once again became the 2019 LEC Spring Split. championship!
At the same time, the G2 team and the OG team will also qualify for the 2019 MSI Mid-Season Invitational as the first and second seeds respectively!
After the LEC finals, Mingrui had time to cheer Zeng Qi and Zhuo Ding remotely.

On April 4, the loser group match started between the TOP team and the FPX team.

I thought that my left hand could kill Doinb like toothpaste, but unfortunately, after five fierce games, Doinb relied on his rich game experience of "self-contained system" to successfully advance to the loser's finals with a score of 3 to 2.

However, on April 4th, Toothpaste successfully avenged his left hand and once again led the JDG team to defeat the FPX team with a score of 17 to 3. While double defeating Doinb, he also successfully advanced to the finals of the LPL Spring Split!
Three days later, on April 4, the duel between the JDG team and the IG team started again.

Although the JDG team has worked very hard, unfortunately, in the face of absolute personal strength, they still failed to pose a threat to the IG team and were once again blocked 0-3.

As a result, the winner IG team successfully became the seventh league champion in the LPL division after finishing second in the S8 World Championship!

At the same time, the IG team and the JDG team will also participate in the 2019 MSI Mid-Season Invitational as the first and second seeds in the LPL division.

The Spring Split Finals of the LPL Division is the latest to end in the world, so with the announcement of the champions and runners-up of the LPL Division, all 2019 participating teams in the 13 MSI Mid-Season Invitational have finally been officially finalized!
In the LEC division, the first seed G2 team and the second seed OG team.

In the LPL division, the No. [-] seed IG team and the No. [-] seed JDG team.

In the LCK division, the first seed SKT team and the second seed GRF team.

In the LCS division, the number one seed TL team and the second seed TSM team.

In addition to the eight teams in the four major divisions, there are also five champion teams from the wild card division, namely the FW team in the PCS division, the PCB team in the VCS division, the DFM team in the LJL division, the INTZ team in the CBLOL division, and The ISG team in the LLA division.

Because the G2 team won the S8 Global Finals, the OG team was directly qualified to advance to the MSI main event, which is the winning and losing group stage.

As for the second seeds in other divisions, they are not so lucky. They need to compete with the champions of the five wild card divisions in a double-elimination group elimination format, and then compete to find the final three teams that can advance to MSI. The team in the main competition!
……

"Brother Rui, I feel so uncomfortable. I was beaten 6-0 by the IG team!"

Shortly after the MSI expedition ceremony for the IG team and the JDG team ended, Zeng Qi sent a message in the group chat of the "Pingxiang Three Heroes" and couldn't wait to complain to Mingrui.

"Damn, I feel so bad. First I lost to JD.com, then to their Little Phoenix. In the end, I only got No. 4 in the LPL Spring Split."

Without waiting for Mingrui's response, Zhuo Ding immediately complained without tears. After all, he thought he could hit the runner-up spot in this spring split and then qualify for MSI.

"Haha, after all, this is your first serious season in the LPL. To be able to finish fourth and become one of the four emperors is actually very good. You can continue to work hard in the summer split. After all, the LPL There are still four World Championship qualifications this year, so the top teams should have no problem."

"What do you feel so bad about, Brother Guozi? IG is the runner-up in the world, and JD.com is only the top [-] in the world. It's normal that you can't beat them."

"If you really feel uncomfortable, why don't you switch identities with your left hand and let him play MSI instead of you?"

After a while, Mingrui also responded to the two of them with a smile in the group chat.

"Forget it, this is my first MSI."

“Besides, I didn’t have the chance to meet you in the S last year, but our JDG team is still very likely to compete with your G2 team on the field this MSI. This is a once-in-a-lifetime training opportunity that none of us want to miss! "

Zeng Qi was looking forward to it and said with great enthusiasm. Although he knew in his heart that JDG team could not be the opponent of G2 team, if he could learn from G2 team, it would definitely be beneficial to the growth of all members of JDG team. A good thing that has all the benefits and no harm!

"Then it depends on whether your JDG team lives up to expectations, but don't even make it to the playoffs by then. That would be embarrassing."

Mingrui chuckled repeatedly, which immediately made Zeng Qi blush with anxiety.

But he knew very well that this was actually a blessing from Mingrui, a "bad friend"!

"Don't worry, Brother Rui, our JDG team can definitely advance to the main competition."

"And when the time comes, we will definitely meet in the winner's bracket!"

Therefore, Zeng Qi assured loudly, and Zhuo Ding who heard it was extremely envious!
