LOL: This man is too persuasive!

Chapter 417 The lottery results are out!

"This lineup is a bit hard to understand."

Malaxiangguo pushed up his thick glasses and looked at the screen in front of him seriously.

He has played in many games, but he has never experienced it like this, sitting in the audience and watching the players compete on the field.

Even though LPLpark can accommodate a relatively small number of spectators, he is still immersed in the atmosphere.

He is now Liu Shiyu, an ordinary League of Legends spectator.

He is not the jungler Mala Xiangguo of the EDG team in the LPL.

"It's normal not to understand!"

"It's strange to understand."

Jiang Zhun smiled and was surprised that DFM dared to bring out these strange things when playing against Samsung:
[Top laner Qinggangying, jungle troll, mid laner big head, ADC cannon, auxiliary Thresh]

Samsung’s lineup is:

[Top laner Shen, jungler Barrel, mid laner Dao Mei, ADC Kai'Sa, support Titan]

A brief comparison of the lineups of both sides can easily see that Samsung's lineup is balanced and comprehensive.

There is no shortage of control, team initiating, and tanks.

And the physical output and magic output are quite balanced.

The power curves of the five heroes are not at the same time period, which can effectively avoid the embarrassing situation that the lineup lacks strength at a certain stage, resulting in being unable to pick up the team.

"It seems like the hero Big Tou hasn't appeared in a game for a long time, right?"

The factory director also touched the little fly at the corner of his mouth and kept thinking about the game.

"Yes."

"This hero kills every one he catches. I haven't seen anyone take him down in the LPL in the past two years."

After going through his brain, Jiang Zhun confirmed the factory director's words.

"Small cannon with a thresh."

"This combination is a bit old."

"Sure enough, the LJL division is just different from us."

After seeing the lineup selected, the players basically knew that Samsung Team was a sure winner in this match.

However, none of them said this.

Instead, everyone stopped talking and began to enjoy the top-notch delicacies that were about to be displayed on the big screen in front!
……

The game time was 1 minute and 35 seconds. Before DFM’s troops reached the line, Naka and Shimonosuke invaded Samsung’s jungle area together.

Datou cleverly used the turret to block Titan's Q skill, causing the audience to exclaim.

Many people's views on DFM's mid laner Ceros have changed.

This guy may be a master.

But soon, reality slapped everyone hard in the face.

After the DFM on the red side successfully invaded the Samsung jungle area, Datou placed two small turrets at the red buff, helped his trolls hit the red buff before heading online.

When he just walked out of the river grass, Crown's Sword Girl had already eaten the first three melee soldiers, and her passive was also stacked.

For someone with strong laning skills, Crown may seem mediocre, but when faced with LJL's novices, he is not at all indifferent.

Without any hesitation, Dao Mei directly used the Q skill to ride on the big head.

The Ceros player obviously didn't realize that the opponent would attack him as soon as he reached the line, and immediately pressed the Q skill desperately to release the turret.

but,

He released only one battery.

Because all the remaining turret charges were used by him to clear the field for his troll gang!

There was a flurry of chaos, and the big head was directly hit and flashed, and had to return to the city under the defense tower.

Seeing this scene happening on the field, the audience couldn't help but open their mouths.

Good guy!
I originally thought that there was some kind of unique skill in choosing the big head, but it turned out to be a unique skill (you definitely can’t survive online)!
……

First blood comes quickly.

At 3 minutes and 32 seconds of game time.

The Crown Sword Girl used her E skill to pull up the bulk of the defense tower, and directly completed a wave of tower jumps for 1 for 1.

Because his sword girl sent a large wave of soldiers into the defense tower, and he got the first drop of blood, this wave of crown exchange was obviously profitable.

the other side,
There is also news in favor of Samsung from the jungle.

Liquor Barrel controlled the Double River Crab!

"LJL's jungler obviously has a problem with his understanding. He should control the crabs on his side first, and then eat the ones in his own jungle. In this way, even if the wine barrel can counter him with a group of wild monsters, he will still have to rely on invading the jungle in the early stage. He still earned the advantage he got.”

After experiencing the Mala Xiangguo audience for five minutes, he returned to the perspective of a professional player and began to comment continuously.

The pace of the game is fast.

At 17 minutes and 50 seconds of game time, the head ratio between the two sides reached 11 to 2.

The LJL players seemed to realize that something was wrong, and began to stop being as reckless as at the beginning and became more steady.

However, they realized it too late.

The Samsung team began to show the operational skills of a veteran team in the LCK division.

In just five minutes, without anyone on either side having a headshot, an economic advantage of 2,200 was opened up.

The director also felt that the game had reached garbage time and started to organize things.

He first replayed the last team battle, and the expressions of the coaches in the lounges on both sides when Samsung played 2 for 5.

Then he gave a small shot of EDG players in the lower left corner of the screen.

Audiences watching the World Championship in the official domestic LPL live broadcast room couldn't help but post comments after seeing familiar faces:

[May I ask Nexus players, do you support Samsung or DFM?]

[Hahahaha, I didn’t expect EDG and the others to come to watch the game today. It was still a dog-eat-dog game. I was really laughing to death.]

[Hae Sungmin, why do you still have the face to say hello to the camera? Go back to training quickly and train Zoe out. 】

[The same goes for spicy hot pot. It’s been almost a season and even Yanque can’t understand it? 】

[Why haven’t I seen anyone from RNG? There is DFM on the field. As a family group, shouldn't they come to cheer us up? 】

【Come on! Strive to win the group stage and qualify]

[I was able to find time to watch the game. It seems that the new version has adapted well. EDG can do it! 】

……

"Let us congratulate the Samsung team for defeating the DFM team with a score of three to zero and successfully advancing to the group stage."

Time flies.

Including the intermission, this BO5 match between Samsung and DFM lasted only two and a half hours.

If we calculate that halftime is 20 minutes and BP time is 5 minutes per game, the average length of each game will be about minutes.

"It's a bit boring."

"I was really expecting an upset, but that doesn't seem realistic."

Mala Xiang Guo looked a little unhappy as everyone from Samsung cheered on the stage.

The factory director said:
"Don't expect any surprises."

"Hard power is hard power. If it is not much stronger than the opponent, there is no such thing as an upset." "Hey." Mala Xiangguo shook his head, "Actually, I feel that G2 is a little stronger than Samsung, but before The pressure from the LCK division over the past few years has been so great that when I see teams in the LCK division now, I think they are very strong.”

The spicy hot pot is telling the truth.

Koreaphobia cannot be completely cured just by EDG winning a championship last year.

Only if the LPL division, like the LCK division, can dominate League of Legends for three or four years, can those who have experienced darkness completely dispel the fear in their hearts.

Now, the LPL division has only completely overwhelmed the LCK division for a full year.

It is obviously impossible to cure Korean phobia.

Meikou and others who won the championship last year are relatively good. Players like Mala Xiangguo who were killed when they met SKT in the royal family feel that the strength of the teams in the LCK division is really understandable.

"LCK is indeed very strong."

"And it's very strong."

Jiang Zhun also nodded and said: "It's just that today's version is no longer suitable for those teams that still rely on operations to accumulate advantages in the early stages like in previous seasons."

"Today's version pays more attention to small team battles in the early stage and resource groups in the mid-term, which need to collide."

"It is precisely because of this that the LPL, which has always been famous for jungle fights, and the European and American competitions, where the entire game is basically a brawl, have been able to perform well in recent competitions."

"Those teams in the LCK division that play a role in management, like SKT, can no longer even reach the threshold of the playoffs."

"Of course, Samsung made it to the playoffs by relying on the players' recovery."

Several people chatted about one thing or another.

They originally planned to watch the game and wait for the group stage draw results to come out, then go out for a meal together and take a Riot bus to Gwangju, where the group stage was held, in the evening.

But unexpectedly, the post-game interview session was ignored.

So much so that I had to wait for another half an hour before the G2 game started.

"There's something wrong with this G2."

"I feel like the No. 2 seeds in North America are not as strong as G."

The factory director is more aware.

After watching G2 quickly win two games in a row, he couldn't help but frown and think deeply.

As a coach,

He can understand the game more clearly and concretely than the players.

The factory director found that G2’s understanding of the version was obviously much better and more correct than the previous Samsung team!

"Samsung is still thinking about relying on Ruler to take over the game in the mid-to-late game, but G2 has begun to play a game where the third line is fully blooming."

"In terms of lineup selection, whether it's the top jungler, the middle jungler, or the lower jungler, the heroes they choose are all small lineups that can be combined to fight better in the early stage."

"Moreover, the heroes in these branches are not lacking in control. This can ensure that if there is a small collision in the early stage, G2 can take advantage of the heroes and kill one person directly first!"

The factory director kept talking, but because the EDG players had watched the game for too long, most of them lowered their heads and started playing with their mobile phones.

In contrast, the European audience on the other side seemed more enthusiastic.

They kept waving their cheering items and shouting "Come on" in English.

"G2, G2"

"Fighting!"

……

"it is finally over!"

Another two and a half hours!
Unknowingly, the time has come to seven o'clock in the evening.

Both BO5 games ended with a score of -.

Meikou rubbed her sore lower back and couldn't help complaining: "No wonder Riot arranges two BO5s a day. It turns out that they are sure that both games will end in -."

"As you said, if something unexpected happens and we play two three-on-two games in a row, can't we wait until tomorrow?"

"Hey." Hae Chengmin also sighed.

His mobile phone automatically shut down because it was out of battery. By coincidence, none of the EDG players had their power bank with them.

He could only sit in his seat and watch the game.

"Let the interview end quickly!"

"I want to see the draw!"

"You can train with peace of mind only after drawing lots. Otherwise, even if I get to the hotel tonight, I won't be in the mood to play RANK."

Hae Sung Min has always been a relatively calm and honest type, just like his style when playing games.

"It's about to start, don't be in a hurry!"

Jiang Zhun patted Hae Sungmin on the shoulder.

"Uh-huh."

When Hae Sung Min saw it was Jiang Zhun, he kept nodding like a well-behaved kitten.

Then he waited quietly for the host to end the interview.

……

On the other hand, the popularity of LPL’s official live broadcast room is also constantly soaring.

Many viewers did not have an LPL team playing today, but came to watch the live broadcast. A large part of the reason is because the group stage draw ceremony will be held after the finals.

This year's group stage draw ceremony is still the same as previous years, and there is an avoidance principle for the same division.

Therefore, Samsung and G2, who have advanced to the group stage from the qualifying rounds, do not need to worry about meeting opponents from their own divisions in the next round.

[Let me have a dream, Group A Flash Wolves, Group B rng, Group C edg, Group D ig join hands with the top four, the final Chinese civil war]

[G2 (chicken and rabbit) TL (in the same cage)]

[Samsung: We want to play RNG most. Ruler: Either shut up or go away and fight the bottom lane! 】

[Other teams in the LCK said to SKT: Without Brother Li, would I still treat you, SKT, as a human being? The LPL team said to the LCK team: Without SKT, would I still treat you Koreans as human beings? 】

[If RNG tops four, I will write thirty test papers plus two tutorials]

[This year is the least promising year for lpl, for two reasons: ① lpl has repeatedly defeated lck in competitions this year ② This year’s S game is held in South Korea]

[Please, please help me with the draw, I want to see our LPL teams fight in Incheon! 】

Under the constant scrolling of barrages, the lottery ceremony finally began.

Since the game is held in the Great Cold Kingdom, the lucky draw guests invited by Riot Games are naturally players from the LCK division.

The one who came to draw lots in the group stage was Wolf, who was supported by SKT and had two world championships, but did not advance to the world championship this year!

When he appeared in front of everyone, there were constant cheers!
Obviously, Wolf is also a very popular player in the LCK.

In this year’s group stage draw ceremony, Riot Games did not have too many fancy designs, and continued the draw pattern from last year’s S7 World Championship.

WOlf selects in turn in a pool similar to a lottery machine.

Everyone in EDG watching the game couldn't help but become nervous when they saw Wolf's chubby hand reaching into the pool.

The factory director picked up his cell phone and opened the memo to record.

After nearly 7 minutes of drawing lots, he finished recording:
Group A: Defending champion EDG, Wolverines, African team, Zayu

Group B: Unlucky Ruler, Xinke, defeated RNG, cannon fodder

Group c: lcK champion KT, American champion TL, Zayu

Group D: European champion FNC, Shivering 100T, eSports 16 Warriors IG
