Chapter 100 Eliminate an lpl team first in the group stage! (seeking a monthly ticket)
Soon, after the on-site staff got ready, the draw ceremony for the 2017 League of Legends World Finals officially began.

The first thing to do was the draw ceremony for the play-in tournament that few people paid attention to. After all, the No. [-] seed in the four major divisions except the LCK was basically crushing all the big teams in the wild card division in terms of strength.

Of course, this sentence is not 6% correct. After all, in the S[-] World Championship last year, the EDG team in the LPL division once lost to the INTZ team in the Samba division, which can be regarded as creating a historical record in the five major divisions.

Therefore, this year's play-in competition is quite interesting. After all, the No. 32 seed team in the four major regions may be eliminated by the wild card team, and then directly stop at the top [-] of the World Championship!
So after the consecutive draws of AmazingJ players, the grouping of this year's S7 finalists was officially released.

Group A: Team WE, Team GMB, Team LYN.

Group B: C9 team, ONE team, DW team.

Group C: FNC team, YG team, KLG team.

Group D: HKA team, FB team, RPG team.

At first glance, No.1 in each group can basically qualify steadily, but e-sports is a place full of miracles, so who can have the last laugh depends on how well they perform in the S7 play-in stage .

The lottery draw for the qualifying round is over, and now comes the long-awaited draw for the group stage!
Before the start of the group stage draw ceremony, the host once again solemnly introduced an important rule for the group stage draw.

That is, the principle of avoidance in the same competition area!
The meaning is very simple, that is, teams from the same competition area cannot appear in the same group, so as to avoid the situation of "cannibalism" among brother teams in the same competition area in the group stage.

After confirming this basic grouping rule, the next thing for Rookie players to do is very simple, that is to continuously take out small balls with team names from the seed pool.

The first part of the draw for the group stage was also nothing to watch, because it simply divided the four No. [-] seeds into ABCD groups.

Rookie quickly completes this step.

Group A, EDG team.

Group B, LZ team.

Group C, G2 team.

Group D, FW team.

And the next No. 7 seed pool draw is the most important thing in all the draw ceremonies tonight, because it will officially determine the specific grouping situation of the S[-] World Championship group stage!
So, with audiences all over the world holding their breath, Rookie drew out the first No. [-] seed team... SKT team!

Then the next moment, the entire LPL division was blown up on the spot!
"Damn it, why is it SKT?"

"Hey, SKT should be entering Group A. Does that mean they will play EDG in the group stage?"

"My god, do you want this World Championship to be so exciting..."

"Brothers, be more confident, isn't it the second seed of the LCK SKT? We are the first seed of the LPL!"

"Our EDG will definitely qualify first in Group A!"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's good to meet SKT in the group stage in advance, because in this way, if EDG wants to meet SKT after qualifying in the group stage, it will win the final."

When the names of EDG and SKT appeared in Group A at the same time on the big screen, the LPL audience, especially the fans of EDG, took a deep breath.

Although they once defeated the SKT team in the distant 2015 MSI, the fear of the SKT team in their hearts is still unabated.

After all, the SKT team led by Faker is the two consecutive champions of the S5 and S6 world championships!

This year, they are going to sprint towards the three consecutive championships belonging to the SKT team to achieve the honor of quadruple championships!

But despite the fear in their hearts, the fans of the EDG team hurriedly comforted themselves, firmly believing that this year's EDG team will not let them down again!

But for Mingrui, this result was a bit unfavorable, because he was really worried that the EDG team would directly dive into the top [-] this year and be eliminated in the group stage.

Then if this happens, the G2 team will not be able to complete the three-game killing streak against the LPL team!
And just as Mingrui was thinking, Rookie also completed the selection of the second No. [-] seed team... SSG team!

Logically speaking, the SSG team should appear in Group B, but because the No. [-] seed in Group B at this time is the LZ team that is also in the LCK division, so according to the principle of avoidance in the same division, the ranking of the SSG team was directly postponed to Group C.

In other words, the same team as G2!

"Pretty!"

Seeing this result, the faces of the G2 teammates put on masks of pain, because although the SSG team is the third seed in the LCK division, as the "successor" of the former world champion SSW team, the strength of the SSG team is really not to be tolerated underestimate!
Only Mingrui was extremely excited, because in this way, their group C already had the potential to become the group of death.

As long as Riot officially gives him face and puts the RNG team in their C group, then Mingrui's dream will come true!

After the words fell, the third No. [-] seed team was released. It was the IMT team from the North American Division and was assigned to Group B.

Then came the fourth No. [-] seed team, the AHQ team in the LMS division. After avoiding the Flash Wolves in Group D, they came directly to Group A.

Therefore, all LPL viewers and EDG fans breathed a sigh of relief, because the last team in Group A must be a wild card, and their EDG team has [-]% qualified to advance to the quarterfinals.

After all, fans of the EDG team don't think that the AHQ team and the wild card team in the LMS division can pose any threat to their EDG team!

Then came the drawing of the fifth No. [-] seed team... TSM team!

"Fake!"

"Fake!"

"Fake!"

And when the fifth team drawn by Rookie was confirmed to be the TSM team, the entire G2 team, including Mingrui, rang out "Fake"!
Because according to the principle of avoidance in the same competition area, when the North American team IMT has already entered Group B, then the North American team TSM can only directly enter Group C!
In other words, Group C at this moment has become a real group of death!

They are, G2 team, SSG team and TSM team!

But this result was extremely uncomfortable for Mingrui, because although he also admitted that Group C at this time was indeed the group of death, how could it "die" differently from what he imagined? !
"No, what about RNG?"

"Why can't RNG be drawn into our C group?"

"Fist official, are you really engaged in black box operations?"

"Is it because the LPL officials are afraid that RNG will be eliminated by our G2 in the group stage, so they specifically signaled Rookie to separate us from RNG?"

"Ahhh, coach, is there any way to report the lottery guests, this Rookie is definitely helping RNG cheat!"

At this moment, Mingrui really couldn't hold back anymore. After all, he wanted to avenge the RNG team and had endured it for a long time.

But seeing that his revenge will be successful in the S7 group stage soon, why did the Riot officials abruptly postpone his revenge by at least ten days? !

"Ahem, Dark, don't get excited... You must not wear a scarf for this sentence, or you will be fined by Riot officials again."

"Let's just say, is there a possibility that Riot officials are quietly on your side?"

Seeing that Dark's reaction at this time was much more intense than that of the other players, the coach hurriedly comforted him, while his brain was running rapidly, and then he suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up immediately!
"How is it possible? If he is really on my side, he should give us RNG!"

"Then our G2 team and the SSG team will qualify together, and at the same time, we will directly eliminate the RNG team and go home!"

Mingrui said angrily, if the coach hadn't stopped him, he really wanted to send a scarf to question the Riot officials.

"We really don't have a chance to be in the same group as RNG, but we still have a chance to meet WE."

"Think about it, what is the current situation in our C group? Europe, LCK, North America, then the fourth team must be the LPL, LMS or wild card team."

"If the WE team can give some strength, they will have a 50.00% chance of being directly assigned to our group C... After all, RNG waits a while, no matter whether they go to the B group or the D group, the WE team has only two choices."

"So Dark, be happy. It's the same when we eliminated WE in the group stage. After MSI, their WE team has always been unconvinced. Have you always thought that our G2 team won the championship by luck?"

"Then let's take the opportunity of the S7 group stage and tell him WE with our real strength, whether we can win them because of luck!"

The coach said to Dark solemnly, thinking that this 17-year-old boy is really a little impatient.

"It seems to be the same."

The coach's analysis finally made Mingrui happy, but only a little bit happier. After all, the LPL team he most wanted to eliminate in the group stage was RNG after all.

Unfortunately……

"Forget it, let RNG live for two more days."

"It's the WE team, you must give a little bit of effort, advance from the group stage, and then come to our group C."

"In this way, our Group C has become a real group of death!"

Mingrui pouted and said, somewhat frustrated and forced to accept the grouping result.

However, when the grouping of the last three second-seeded teams was announced, when GAM joined Group B, and RNG and MSF joined Group D together, Mingrui gradually became happier again.

Because judging from the current grouping situation, the chances of EDG and RNG to advance to the quarterfinals are really great!
What is the final group stage group situation?
Group A: EDG team, SKT team, AHQ team.

Group B: LZ team, IMT team, GAM team.

Group C: G2 team, SSG team, TSM team.

Group D: FW team, MSF team, RNG team.

It can be said that as long as the EDG and RNG teams perform normally, they can avoid the fate of being eliminated in the group stage, and then they will have the opportunity to meet the G2 team in the quarter-final draw!

At that time, if you can crush the RNG team 5-3 in the BO0 battle in the knockout stage, then the thrill you will get at that time will obviously be more than the thrill of eliminating them in the group stage!
"If you think about it this way, the Riot official seems to have done a secret operation for me."

"But I'm afraid that the LPL team is too rubbish. This year it really fell in the group stage."

"In that case, even if our G2 finally won the championship in the Bird's Nest, the fun in the process will be much less!"

Thinking of this, Mingrui became nervous again, and without waiting for the host on TV to announce the end of the lottery ceremony, he immediately opened the scarf and issued a "blessing" message.

"@G2.Dark: The grouping situation of the S7 World Championship has come out. Although our G2 was unlucky and failed to meet the RNG team in the group stage, we lost the chance to make RNG into the top [-], but it doesn't matter, the knockout round It is the same to eliminate you at the stage."

"So I would like to take this opportunity to solemnly entrust a few words to the three representative teams in the LPL division. Please keep them in mind and honor them."

"@WE电子竞技校园: Although your bubbling match was very rubbish and you almost couldn't come to S7, but you are the runner-up of MSI, and you still have some strength, so I hope you will play well in the play-in stage , Don't let me die directly in the top 32.

"Then after qualifying for the finals, you must come directly to our group C. Anyway, our G2 will definitely eliminate an LPL team in the group stage. Since RNG was lucky to avoid it, the unlucky ghost can only be you WE now."

"@RNG Electronic Sports Club: Seeing the results of this lottery, you RNG must be laughing, right? It doesn't matter, anyway, in my opinion, your RNG is just a grasshopper after autumn, and it won't be a few days, but I still hope you guys If RNG can give you a sigh of relief and get out of the group, it shouldn't be as difficult as winning the championship, right?"

"@EDG Electronic Sports Club: To be fair, based on paper strength, your chances of qualifying for EDG are quite high, but based on historical records, I really doubt whether you can beat AHQ and wild cards?"

"Why don't you doubt SKT? Then you still need to doubt? You will definitely not be able to beat it! So I also hope that you can give the Lord a sigh of relief and stop losing wild cards, otherwise this year will really be the top [-]!"

Facing the three "worry-free" LPL teams, Ming Ruiyu earnestly entrusted him with fear that if they made a mistake, he would not be able to write the script he wanted in the end.

Fortunately, although these three LPL teams are not strong enough, they are as confident as ever, so after Mingrui released this scarf, they also released a scarf with the same content at the same time.

"In the 2017 League of Legends World Championship, our EDG/RNG/WE team will definitely win our first LPL world championship trophy in the Bird's Nest!"

"Please wait and see!"

LPL Yusanjia did not respond positively to Mingrui's "entrustment", but announced to the world their ultimate goal in this S7 World Championship.

So the answer is self-evident. For the Dark and G2 teams, the LPL Yusanjia doesn't care at all. In their view, since the ultimate goal is set at the world championship, then in the process of winning the championship, no matter what team they encounter, They will all win in the end!

Facing the response from the LPL Yusanjia, Mingrui just smiled softly and did not respond anymore. After all, their LPL division has said too many big words, but in the end there are not many of them.

So this time, Mingrui can also be sure that the LPL division will eventually go away with ambitions and return home in defeat.

Because, this S7 world champion, the G2 team has already been booked!
……

After the draw ceremony for the 2017 League of Legends World Finals, the entire G2 team is ready to leave for China.

虽然S7入围赛开赛的时间还早，是在9月23号，小组赛开赛的日子更是要等到10月5号，距离现在还有足足20多天时间。

However, in order to go to China in advance to adjust the time difference, adapt to the environment, and conduct training, the G2 team unanimously decided to start early after discussion.

After all, apart from the above reasons, all members of G2 hope that they can work with Dark to push their Canyon Top account to the forefront of the king in the shortest possible time!
And in addition to the reasons within the G2 team, there is another reason outside the team for their early departure...

That is, the three representative teams in the European Division actually agreed to set off together a long time ago, but when the specific time has not been determined, Rekkles of the FNC team insisted on urging to start as soon as possible. If you want to meet someone, you can't just ask Uzi for an autograph, right? !
So, after a two-day flight, the three teams from the EU competition area finally flew to Wuhan, the Chinese venue for the S9 finalists and group matches, in the early morning of September 15 !

……

"In the next two days, everyone should adjust the time difference as quickly as possible and adapt to the environment, and then from September 9th, we will enter the state of preparation for the World Championship."

"Do you have any questions?"

After quickly checking in at the hotel, G2 boss Carlos asked everyone in G2.

"Yes, can we go out to play? This is our first time in Huaxia!"

The G2 team members immediately asked excitedly. After all, before the plane landed, their previous "stereotype" of Huaxia had been instantly shattered by the dazzling high-rise buildings, making them realize that Huaxia is not at all. It is as backward as reported by the western media, but very advanced and modern!
"Yes, but it can only be a small-scale activity, and requires the approval of the team leader."

Carlos immediately responded with a smile, although he understood the thoughts of the players very well, after all, "going out" is relatively risky. If something happens before the game, it will be very bad.

"Carlos, China is one of the safest countries in the world. There are no robberies on the streets, not even thieves."

"The only thing you need to worry about is food. Although Huaxia's food is very delicious, you are foreigners after all, and your stomach may not adapt to it, so you must not eat it badly... You should know about the beef noodle incident in EDG back then. Bar?"

Mingrui said to Carlos with a smile, and then, taking advantage of the laughter of his G2 teammates, made a solemn request to Carlos.

"Carlos, if it's possible, I would like to apply to go back to my hometown, Jiangxi Pingxiang, during the two-day break. It only takes two hours by high-speed train from Wuhan, and it will be very fast."

"From April to September, I haven't seen my family for half a year. It's strange."

Mingrui looked forward to looking at Carlos and revealed his true feelings.
