LOL: This man is so strong!

LPL official release:

"On July 4, 2017, four teams, Snake, RNG, EDG, and WE, are representing the LPL division in the Asian Intercontinental Championship. We are looking forward to their performance."

"..."

After more than two hours of flight, the LPL team has arrived in Kaohsiung.

The rainy season in Kaohsiung is from May to September, with about 90% of Kaohsiung’s annual rainfall falling.

Li Hao and others were sitting on the bus and could hear the patter of rain outside.

“The hotel is located near the multi-functional economic and trade park and very close to the Kaohsiung Exhibition Center.”

Zuo Wu held a map and said seriously.

Flandre flipped through her backpack and asked casually:

"Would you like to go to the venue today?"

"go."

"I'm pressed for time. I'll see the venue today and study it together tomorrow. The game will start the day after tomorrow."

Flandre took out the things from the bag and gestured to Li Hao.

"Brother Hao, do you want to eat?"

Li Hao took a look, good guy, tea eggs.

"I don't want to eat it. The aunt who made breakfast brought a bowl over in the morning and I choked a little bit."

"Why do you still have it in your bag?"

"I'm afraid there isn't one here, right?"

Qianzi smiled: "No, I just think it tastes good."

After some more nonsense, everyone arrived at the hotel not long after.

After putting away their luggage, the LPL players were led by Riot staff to the competition venue.

According to the staff, it only takes about 15 minutes to walk to this venue.

However, in order to save time, I still took the bus.

It was also the first time for Li Hao to visit this venue.

The LMS region and the LPL region are still incomparable.

The environment around the Kaohsiung Exhibition Center is also far inferior to Super Brand Mall.

There are only about 2,000 seats inside the venue.

It's quite petty when it comes to an event like the Asian Championships.

This left a deep impression on everyone in the LPL, because the scene of the spring and summer finals is really not comparable to the Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall.

After walking around the competition venue, everyone returned to the hotel without interest.

From July 6th to July 9th, the four-day intercontinental competition will be held in the exhibition hall.

Although the facilities are average, the opponents cannot be ignored.

At 7:30 in the evening, the four teams exchanged pairs to play training matches in the training room set up in the hotel.

The LMS and LCK regions are doing the same thing.

The rules of the intercontinental competition are relatively unique, and the knockout rounds are a bit like Tianji horse racing.

On the first and second days, there will be a BO1 single round-robin format among the three divisions. Each team will play against one of the teams from the other two divisions.

In short, each team will play two games.

The division with the highest points will directly enter the finals.

The remaining two divisions will compete in the BO5 semi-finals.

There are two important points in "Tian Ji Horse Racing". One is to arrange the strength of the team, and the other is to guess the order of the opponent's appearance.

On October 5, Abu Chris and others got together.

There is no elimination in the intercontinental group stage, no matter how bad the team is, they will reach the semi-finals later.

Therefore, what everyone mainly decides is the order of appearance in the knockout rounds.

The preliminary ideas for the knockout rounds are:

In the first game, the top two teams will usually be played. If they lose, the strongest team will be played in the second game. If they win, they will be played by the team that is likely to win.

In the third game, the remaining strong teams were still pitted against each other, but in the fourth game, there was no choice.

The team that won the fifth game was in the best shape.

…

Abramovich said: "This is roughly the framework. It will be adjusted depending on the situation during the game."

Chris, Feng Ge, and Hongmi all said there was no problem.

After all, when you reach the knockout round, you have to guess the order in which your opponents will appear.

Brother Feng took the schedule and said:

"The first game tomorrow is LCK vs. LMS, and then our game will follow."

Abramovich responded, the first match of the LPL was EDG versus Mvp.

On the LPL side, in order of seeds, they are Snake, WE, RNG, and EDG.

MVP is also the No. 4 seed. The rules of the group stage are that seeds with the same number in different divisions compete against each other.

In the afternoon, a bunch of people from the LPL played a training match together.

On RNG's side, they made an appointment with LCK's MVP.

Everyone else was watching the game, either watching the training match on the big screen, or standing behind the RNG players.

This game lasted only 25 minutes, and MVP played GG.

"Strong, Xiaohu!"

Gouzi yelled, and Xiaohu's aircraft scored luxurious statistics of 8/2/3.

Xiaohu still said: "It's a fun time, but they stopped playing."

Brother Feng teased from the side, "Okay, for a training match, don't raise your tail in the sky."

"No no."

The big tiger god waved his hands repeatedly, "Isn't this for the factory director to explore the way?"

Li Hao stood next to the factory director and patted him on the shoulder:

"Qichang, Beyond is a good excavator, and the ADD is also very powerful. The middle lane and bottom lane are very much like a breakthrough."

"Um."

Jarhead responded, tilted his mouth and said:

"This support Max's positioning is quite aggressive. I like opponents like this."

"Catch him at Level 2 and that's it."

Looking at Gouzi's look, the factory director smiled strangely and said, "Don't get excited, I'm not trying to catch you."

"..."

Next, WE played a training match with JT.

JT is a team that is good at playing the early game and then snowballing.

This can be seen from the selection of people.

JK Ueno directly came up with a powerful combination of spider and crocodile.

The mid laner is a plane, and the duo is skateboard shoe Gablon.

Although JT is only the third seed, judging from the performance of this training match, whether it is mid laner Fofo or Bebe, their performance is very stable.

Looking at the game from WE's perspective, the opponent is quite difficult.

In a key team battle at 35 minutes, Brother-in-law, under the protection of Ben Tam, avoided the entry of Morning Crocodile and jungler Alex.

Xiye's clockwork combined with Condi's excavator drove to the plane, and Rambo killed Fofo's head with one move.

JT failed in the team battle and announced GG.

"There's something about this Fofo."

Xiaohu muttered, and Xiangguo said cautiously: "This person's Syndra still needs to be taken down. The winning rate is quite high."

JT is different from MVP. This is the third seed and will collide head-on with RNG in the group stage.

Chris, who watched the game, said: "JT took the initiative to ban the policewoman on the blue side. I don't know if it was Bebe's lack of confidence or JT's smoke bomb."

"This version of Policewoman 1 has too many advantages. There's no reason why Bebe can't play."

Brother Feng also noticed this problem. He flipped through the season information and said:

"Maybe this person really doesn't know how to play."

"The heroes he has used most in his entire career are Jhin, Ashe, and EZ. The heroes he has used most this summer are Ice, Cannon, and Kalista."

"Throughout the spring, he used the policewoman twice, with a winning rate of 0%. He also used it twice in the summer split, with a winning rate of 50%. The average point economy he got by using the policewoman was 383.6, among all the ADCs he used. , only higher than Kog'Maw and Varus."

Speaking of this, Brother Feng laughed: "The policewoman is another hero who needs economy and development. He uses the policewoman to pay so poorly, which is equivalent to being abandoned by the version. Unexpectedly, a training match can also find unexpected joys .”

Li Hao nodded secretly.

The policewoman's priority is indeed high now, and the red team will basically be banned.

The blue square ban policewoman, JT must not have enough ban spots.

From the perspective of training matches, JT obviously pays more attention to it than WE does.

Li Hao can understand that he is fighting in Kaohsiung after all. Before the main game starts, the results of the training games can also be used to brag.

Once JT wins, it won't be a big problem to brag for a day in Kaohsiung.

Unfortunately, they failed to do so, as WE defeated them.

At around five o'clock in the evening, Snake and M17 played the last training match of the day.

The gap between the LMS's No. 4 seed and the world champion is extremely obvious. Both sides chose a lineup that is biased towards the early stage, and all three lanes played very lively.

In addition to the fact that Dee and Dreamer had no disadvantage in using the combination of Kalista and Thresh on the bottom lane, the 3z Rambo and Apex aircraft on the top lane were directly attacked by Snake in the middle and top lane.

Tian Tian, ​​who was watching the game, said:

"Director, this guy's Lambo can definitely be given a package. If you don't have a good view, you dare to stand under the tower."

Jarhead smiled and said, "I have written it down a long time ago and will arrange it when we come on stage."

At the beginning of 20 minutes, M17 felt that there was no hope, and GG gave up.

When we met with the No. 4 seeds on both sides, the one we knew best was the EDG team.

Although they won all the training matches, the LPL side was not too excited.

Mainly because I have seen this kind of thing too often.

In training matches, he controls thunder and lightning, but in the main match, it is normal to stretch his hips.

…

On July 6, 2017, the League of Legends Pacific Division competition came to the final stage.

The Asian competition has just begun.

After enjoying the animation of the opening ceremony, the players of each major team also appeared on the behind-the-scenes one by one.

A red light enveloped the stage, and two hosts, a man and a woman, walked to the front.

"Hello, all the summoners present, as well as the viewers watching the live broadcast on TV and the Internet, good afternoon, everyone!"

"Welcome everyone to the competition site at our Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall. I am today's host AnnaLee. Hello everyone!"

The hostess said "Wow~" and waved towards the scene. You could see that many people below were shaking their cheering objects and cheering in response.

"I am the host Ren Dong. To all the summoners present, let us feel everyone's enthusiasm again, okay!"

After Ren Dong shouted, the audience below was quite cooperative.

After the two hosts talked about it, they also introduced the competition schedule, rules and competition area distribution to everyone.

According to the LMS opening ceremony arrangement, the first team to appear is the fourth seed in the LMS division, M17.

Next, the JT team was called the strongest JT team on the surface by the female host Wanwan.

Then there is the Red Pegasus AHQ team, which is said to be world-class in popularity.

The last player to appear in the LMS is the FW team.

Annalee shouted with the loudest voice: "The last one to appear in our division is Flash Wolves - Flash Wolves~~!"

"I am a Wolf fan and I am proud. Our FW is the first place in the LMS Spring Split. It is famous for its excellent mid-jungle linkage and lane switching support. It has also repeatedly represented our LMS region on the world stage. I hope they can achieve greater glory and contribute to the world. Our LMS achieved super good results~~!”

Seeing Annalee jumping up and down with excitement, Ren Dong on the side felt slightly uncomfortable.

Sister Anna is so good at blowing.

The key is that she is not embarrassed at all by bragging like this.

The Wanwan fans at the scene also gave the Flash Wolves their biggest cheers. The glowing sticks in his hands kept colliding.

At first glance, the entire Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall is really lively.

At this time, the viewers watching the live broadcast on LPL TV and the vast majority of players from the four LPL teams did not feel anything was wrong.

Until FW walked around the circular stage, and then when the EDG team came on stage, an extremely embarrassing scene occurred.

Sister Anna and Ren Dong welcomed the EDG team to the stage.

When they interacted with the audience, the audience was quite stingy with their applause.

As for the cheers like just now, don't even think about it.

When the EDG group walked around in front of the auditorium, Ren Dong and Sister Anna introduced EDG's historical achievements, but the audience was still indifferent.

Both the factory director and Tian Tian were embarrassed and stopped waving their hands towards the audience.

In the barrage on the LPL side, there have been a lot of ‘? ? ? ’.

Also receiving the same treatment are the RNG and WE teams that will appear next.

There is no harm without comparison.

Thinking about the appearance of the LMS team just now, the Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall is really full of indifference.

"Next up is the Snake team from the LPL region! They are the 2016 Global Finals Champions and the 2017 Mid-Season Championship Champions! Welcome Snake~~!"

Anna and Ren Dong shouted again.

However, even though Snake is now full of honors, he still can't make this arena hot.

The sporadic applause and cheers seemed so abrupt.

When the director panned the camera over the Snake players, everyone felt embarrassed and had basically no expression on their faces.

Walking around the arc-shaped LCD screen in the player's seat, Li Hao's expression did not change at all.

From beginning to end, he always looked serious.

Even though Ren Dong mentioned his ID, no smile could be seen on Li Hao's expression.

Although Li Hao had thought about it in advance, when it came to this moment, there would still be inexplicable fluctuations, which made his face look like frost and snow.

Especially when the final LCK fourth-seeded MVP team came on stage, the scene suddenly erupted in human cheers.

Everything seemed so abrupt.

Flandre, who was walking in front, paused and looked towards the audience in disbelief.

At first, he thought these audiences only welcomed LMS players.

Now it seems that it is only targeting the LPL.

Li Hao patted him gently and signaled him to continue moving forward.

In the backstage lounge, listening to the continuous applause and cheers from behind, the Snake Team couldn't hold back any longer.

"Treat them differently?" Flandre's words were filled with anger.

Chris closed the door louder than usual and complained: "It's really disgusting."

Gangzi also had a bad look on his face: "Are Kaohsiung people of this caliber? Are they trying to mess with our mentality?"

Li Hao also answered:

"Calm down and don't be influenced by these people."

"If you're in a hurry, that's what you want."

"When competing, hit as hard as you want."

Liu Qingsong and Lin Weixiang also nodded.

Zuo Wu pumped his fists continuously: "E-sports, food is the original sin, all these bells and whistles are useless!"

"Just like Brother Hao said, when it comes to the arena, you will be hit as hard as you want!"

"..."

It wasn't just Snake who felt disgusted, RNG, WE, and EDG were all disgusted.

The young man with the pot head pulled out a few strands of his hair.

He took the schedule and looked at it again, "After playing MVP, we will play M17."

"Made, we must arrange them!"

Xiaohu and Gouzi roared: "Director, if you don't beat their shit out, they will be clean!"

The laundry detergent was so hard that I spit in the background~!

"Brothers, please resist the pressure and fight for your reputation without making steamed buns."

"We must win this intercontinental competition!!"

"I'm so angry, I must slap them in the face!"

"Kill these bastards!"

"..."

Backstage in the LPL, people are really angry right now.

In this Kaohsiung exhibition hall, everyone was irritated after just a few minutes of experience.

At this moment, the four LPL teams are one.

To win the 2017 Intercontinental Championship trophy and win the Asian competition, this is their common aspiration!

In the live broadcast rooms of major LPL broadcast platforms, the audience was even more furious.

There are many people who transform themselves into key immortals.

"The result is that you applaud the sticks but not us? Don't you even have the most basic respect?"

"The frog at the bottom of the well is the arrogant one! Hetui~!"

"The frog is hopeless. It's just pitiful for our players to be bullied outside."

"This time no one is being slanderous. Brother Pig, Dog, Wolfberry, and Holy Gun Laundry Detergent are all given to me!! I want to be the champion!"

Some trolls also cursed: "You rubbish, your horse is gone! Your family tree is gone too!"

In the past, I saw that the barrage was full of swearing messages and bad mouth, which some fans thought was a bit annoying.

Looking at it now, it suddenly feels like a kind of enjoyment.

He actually expected them to scold him even more fiercely.

…

In a short period of time, public opinion abounded.

The 2017 Asian Intercontinental Championship has also become a different flavor.

For a time, the flames of war and gunpowder smoke filled the air.

After Chris, Feng Ge, Abu and others learned about the public opinion from the outside world for the first time, they could feel a huge pressure.

What the four LPL teams can do now is to withstand this pressure!

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the opening match officially started.

Of course, the opening game has nothing to do with the LPL division. The teams chosen are the JT team of the LMS and the SSG team of the LCK.

At this time, if you look at the schedule in hand, you can even read the malicious intent.

The LPL people watching the game backstage could feel from the big screen and the scene that whether it was the JT team or SSG, they once again received cheers and applause from the audience.

Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall, except for their LPL backstage lounge, the rest of the place is an indifferent place.

This is no exaggeration.

Li Hao took a breath, picked up the thermos cup and took a sip.

The little fat man sitting next to him was furious. Originally, he might have been a substitute today, after all, the load management time arranged by the club had not passed.

But after the little fat man went through this, he applied directly with the coaching staff.

He, Uzi, is going to fight today!

Li Hao nodded secretly, today's Uzi, okay!

"Brother Hao, do you still have your bandages?"

"Why do you want a bandage?"

"Isn't my arm injured? I'll take off a bandage later."

"Did not bring."

"..."

On the court, the game between JT and SSG has begun.

The opening game was a bladder battle. Players from the two teams fought fiercely for 52 minutes. Varus of the Three-Star Ruler Emperor made up 552 knives.

The mercury scimitar, ruined, endless, demon-drinking knife, artillery, splitting arrows, shoes are all sold, and the mechanical six-god outfit.

Under the protection of Corejj's Tam, JT had no choice.

In the last wave of team battle, Samsung took the Baron Buff and defeated JT in front of JT Crystal Hub.

At 52 minutes and 15 seconds, SSG helped LCK win its first victory.

Next, MVP plays against EDG.

…

"LPL, come on!"

"LPL, come on!"

…

Backstage, a neat voice sounded, and everyone in EDG left the stage in groups.

At this moment, the number of viewers of the LPL broadcast skyrocketed.

'Come on' filled the screen.

When the two teams entered the field, the frogs were still the same as before.

MVP had applause and cheers, but EDG had nothing.

However, everyone in EDG sitting in the player seats had no time to think about this.

Because it’s BO1, you don’t have to worry about that much at all.

EDG released a big move at the beginning, and the factory director chose the widow as jungler!

On the LPL barrage, except for the string of 7, almost all are ‘Ankai’!

Obviously, the pig factory was angry!

The moment he put on the headphones, the factory director under the camera also had a gloomy face.

At level 1, the factory manager deliberately exposed himself to MVP's sight, and Tam came to help.

Mvp is very careful with ADD in the top lane, because he knows that the Widow will brush into the red zone and then be captured with a high probability.

However, after the Widow takes away the blue buff, three wolves, and red buff.

The factory director did the opposite and went directly through the middle lane towards the bottom lane through stealth.

The MVP team didn't react at all the first time.

At 2 minutes and 56 seconds, the Level 3 Widow was captured through stealth, and together with Tam and Han Bing, they captured both brothers Maha and Max to death!

These two heads were also accepted by Widow and Han Bing.

"Nice!"

"Raising pigs on the road, the factory manager is awesome!"

"..."

Backstage at LPL, everyone was shouting excitedly.

It's hard to imagine that people who are rivals in the same division would share the same hatred.

Zuo Wu took a picture of the situation in the background and saved it on his mobile phone.

The widow who got the kill in the bottom lane, after brushing off the river crabs in the lower half, went around the F6 wall to catch it, and cooperated with the younger brother's rock bird to directly hit Lan's flash.

Moreover, Syndra's blood volume also became severely disabled.

In the early stage, EDG gained a huge advantage.

Although they are the fourth seed in LCK, the overall strength of MVP is not bad.

However, in this game, everyone in EDG was holding their breath and focused very much.

Coupled with the disadvantages caused by negligence at the beginning, it was not so easy to recover for a while.

EDG communicates continuously to minimize communication errors.

Under careful operation, EDG has always taken the initiative on the court.

At 13 minutes, Zet's ice arrow hit Varus, and both sides came to support him.

With higher development, EDG played 2 for 4 in this wave, got the first blood tower in the bottom lane, and gained the first water dragon, making a lot of money.

There was a roar of applause backstage!

This was a big wave of rhythm. When EDG opened the Rift Pioneer at 15 minutes, Mvp did not dare to join the team due to the disadvantage in vision, so he could only use the bottom lane defense tower in exchange.

After taking over the canyon, EDG took advantage of the large number of people, and ADD had to give up the first tower on the road.

After breaking the upper tower, EDG returned to defend the bottom lane and the second lane, and Mvp only pushed halfway.

They seized the opportunity for the opponent to return to the city to resupply, and led the Canyon Herald to push in a group. One of the Mvp towers was quickly pushed down.

At the second tower in the middle, a team battle broke out between the two sides.

ADD's Gnar made a beautiful big move, and EDG was beaten 0 for 2 and suffered a small loss.

However, MVP's second tower was pushed down.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there are no dragons or canyon pioneers, Mvp only gets dry heads, and the middle tower cannot be broken due to the line of troops, so it cannot get resources at all.

ADD had a chance to break through the tower, but Audi teleported over and defended it.

As soon as the two mid-towers were lost, Mvp's door was wide open. In the next ten minutes or so, Mvp not only suffered from a few waves of small-scale team battles due to his vision, but the jungle area was also turned to pieces.

The widow continued to eat Beyong's F6, and the wild area also began to raise pigs.

At 34 minutes and 08 seconds, EDG successfully defeated the Baron and broke through two MVP heights in a row!

At this time, EDG had an economic lead of 9,600 yuan.

At 35 minutes and 12 seconds, Mvp suffered a disastrous defeat in the highland team battle due to the equipment gap.

EDG quickly pulled out the incisor tower. When the MVP crystal hub was about to be exploded, the director and Zet Ye Tian rushed into the spring and killed Gnar who wanted to defend in the spring.

Tam and Ice were shot by the spring.

The Widow flashed out of the spring, and then attacked Mvp's old crystal with a basic attack.

On the contestants' bench, the young man with the pot head showed disdain on his face.

Not only does it abuse the spring, but it will never be destroyed.

"Pah pah pah~~!"

"Awesome~!"

"Wuhu~~!"

There was applause and cheers.

Of course, this is the glory that EDG enjoys when they return to the backstage.

The factory director held up his hands and sat down on the table domineeringly.

"How's it going? Is my widow okay?"

Li Hao gave a thumbs up: "Kler's Dirty Dancing, awesome!"

"Next time we play EDG, we must beat the Widow, right, Chris!"

Chris laughed and said: "I must pull it!"

Gouzi patted the factory director's thigh: "You, a widow, can't play like this, at least you can't hit our RNG."

"Definitely not, don't worry."

The factory director patted his chest and said, "I'll get you at level 3 this time. If I hit you, I'll get you at level 2."

"Ha ha."

EDG got off to a good start and won, and the atmosphere backstage was a lot more lively.

Brother Feng clapped his hands and said, "Stop getting high, we'll be here soon!"

At four o'clock in the afternoon, SSG played against RNG.

The Korean audience is looking forward to this game, and the fans at the scene also cheer for Samsung.

Sitting in the middle was a frog wearing a Teemo cuckold. He was afraid that others wouldn't see it, so he held up a support sign with three stars written on it.

Unfortunately, this is destined to be another disappointing game for these people.

The lineup selected by SSG is biased toward the mid-to-late stage, while RNG has set up a battle formation to fight you in the early stage!

In the first game, when playing JT, SSG was at a disadvantage in the early stage and fought fiercely for 52 minutes in the end.

In this game, they were still at a disadvantage in the early stages.

However, RNG's suppression is obviously stronger than JT.

Judging from the playing style on the court, there seems to be a sense of restraint against SSG.

At 26 minutes and 34 seconds, fans in the LCK division and many spectators at the scene could not accept it.

RNG's economic lead has reached more than 6,000.

Moreover, they are advancing with the Baron Buff!

The high ground in the middle of Samsung's road was broken, and RNG returned to the city to supply equipment.

The classic three-piece Uzi suit is here~!

At 30 minutes and 13 seconds, the SSG highland team exploded, and RNG immediately attacked. The two sides played a tragic 3-for-4. The Uzi policewoman got three kills and roared with excitement!

The only remaining Corejj could not hold on to his hometown and was bulldozed by RNG!

The head ratio between the two sides was fixed at 18-8.

The Kaohsiung Exhibition Hall was very quiet, but the LPL broadcast platform was abuzz.

And this is just the beginning of the 2017 Intercontinental Championship!

…

I was really angry after watching the opening ceremony of the 2017 Intercontinental Championship! The People's Daily also broadcast this news at that time, and the behavior of Frog at the scene was really disgusting.
