LOL: This man is too persuasive!

Chapter 188: The top eight grouping that makes people split!
EDG defeated Samsung to secure the first place in the group in advance. So far, some players are happy and some are sad.

SSG is naturally worried. After all, there are a bunch of North American guys in the audience who are eyeing them. It would be really fun to lose a game and be forced to go home in the top [-] of the playoffs.

The last IMP who returned home in the top [-] is still on the pillar of shame. Oh, his reputation in the LCK is already very bad?

Then nothing will happen.

RNG is also worried.

Even people with a heart as big as a spicy pot feel embarrassed and panic, wishing that there were three rooms and one living room under their feet for them to get into.

The three representative teams of the LPL, EDG and IG, are both first in the group, and you and RNG are second in the group. They are the result of crazy playoffs. They almost reached the top eight in the two years of Mingkai, including last year. The quarterfinals really tied that man's record in one fell swoop.

As for Yin Yang Wei IG is too weak in the group, not many people care about it. After all, if you have the ability, you can draw a lottery yourself. Six consecutive victories are not snatched out of thin air. If your RNG loses to FW and then loses to FNC, it will be even more shameless. People?
An interesting thing is that when the director turned the camera from the EDG competition seat to the other side, several C9 brothers came in and waved the EDG team flag crazily in the audience.

On the stage, he walked to the opposite side with a look that was almost murderous.

After shaking hands with several SSG brothers, the five members of Jiang Zhun once again came to the center of the stage to receive applause from the audience.

Hey, this is very comfortable. They bowed five times in five games. Although they have to be careful of being unstable, anyone can see that the players are in a very good mood.

"Xiao Jiang, go for an interview. At the next mouse game, I will go over the tactical suggestions you collected with the analysts."

Coming off the stage, Nofe warned Jiang Zhun before leaving with the host.

Now the young man cheering in the audience is already EDG's ace, and nofe doesn't just treat the opponent as an ordinary player.

What Nexus has achieved today is really due to his strong will that can 100% listen to other people's suggestions and implement them perfectly.

The Mediterranean guy who was summoned still didn't change his image at all. A few flowing hair were pulled sideways at the corners of his eyes. He obviously wanted to put his hands in his pockets to show off his new suit, but instead he looked like a middle-aged man. .

Since it was a battle for the top spot in the group, the five people had to go to different interview venues.

A few minutes later, Jiang Zhun, who had put away his peripherals, followed the staff to the English interview desk.

"Wow! Nexus player, your body and your playing style really match."

When he met the host, Jiang Zhun was a little uncomfortable with Sjokz's unabashed look at him. However, he was a little confused about the figure and playing style mentioned by the other party, so he asked, "Shadow and playing style?"

"Yeah, just like Captain America in the Marvel movies, powerful and reliable!"

"I'm sorry, I actually like Iron Man better!"

"Can you tell me the reason?" Sjokz was very interested. Knowing more about the players she was about to interview would be more beneficial to her work.

Jiang Zhun said bluntly, "A mortal body can rival the gods..."

……

"After winning the crucial game, EDG has already determined the first place in the group in advance. I wonder how Nexus is feeling now?"

On the interview stage, Sjokz, who was once again shocked by the cheers of the Wuhan Sports Center audience, asked with a smile.

Jiang Zhun held several club peripherals in his hand and threw them out to the LPL fans in the audience. He turned around and took the microphone, "The three teams in Group A are all very strong. We give our best in every game." To deal with it with a positive attitude, winning the game is the greatest reward for me and my teammates, I am very happy.”

Sjokz looked at the opponent's arm with interest out of the corner of his eye. He found that the gift he just threw out actually reached the outermost row of the infield and couldn't help but smack his lips. It's such an intoxicating muscle!
It was clear that the brainstorming was going on, but Sjokz remained calm on the surface and continued to ask the second question.

"Nexus, you have used five different heroes so far, and we have also seen that this year's EDG has changed greatly from previous years. Can I understand that EDG is still experimenting with tactics so far?"

"In fact, every main game is the team's practice of the tactics used in training games. It is obviously wrong to describe it as an experiment. It is disrespectful to the competition if the lineup is not selected through hard work."

It can be said that this answer is quite high level.

Sjokz smiled and continued to ask: "Last question, everyone is shocked by your perfect performance in the group stage Nexus, so as a newcomer to the game, do you have any experience you can share with those fledgling players?"

"I'm not a newcomer!"

Sjokz immediately replied: "My information on Nexus is correct. You first played in the LPL league in WE this spring split, and then in EDG in the summer split..."

Jiang Zhun explained softly to the host, a blonde beauty from Europe and the United States, "I joined the professional team in 2014, but at that time I was not strong enough and I was a substitute for two or three years. This year I have the opportunity to play in the main game. !”

"As for suggestions, I hope that those younger generations who really strive for their ideals and championships will not be discouraged, nor will they have the idea of ​​​​giving up because of a temporary failure. The real hero does not see how many times you win, but what you do after failure. How many times can you stand up? Difficulties are like mountains ahead. Once you climb over one mountain, you will be higher than the other."

"Crack!" "Crack!" "Crack!"

The audience spontaneously burst into warm applause, and some foreign audiences among them also cheered after hearing the translator's retelling.

The LPL audience next to them also took the initiative to explain to these European and American old friends Jiang Zhun's story of climbing out of the abyss from the bench, and the applause suddenly became more intense.

Nexus, you!

He is the real hero in our hearts.

"Well said, Brother Zhun!"

"Nexus is a real man!"

"Oh my god, I declare that Brother Zhun's words are my signature."

[People with slow hands are still gibbering, but the real action people have changed it, and Nexus has the same signature. 】

The interview is over.

Although SSG's back-to-back life-and-death matches with C9 were somewhat affected by their mentality in the previous game, SSG was ultimately superior in terms of team strength. In a four-and-10-minute battle, all three teams defeated C9's crystal and won the victory. It’s time for the last eight spots.

The subsequent group stage had nothing to do with him, and mouse was very excited to replace him.

It's a pity that A Guang, who got EDG's traditional skill tree, has not been able to make much use of it in the top lane. The scout of Lu Xian'er was once again selected in the middle lane to break the curse of this hero. Together with the jungle director, he penetrated AHQ. Line of defense.

EDG did not give them a chance. Although the two clubs have a good relationship in private and losing this game will not affect their rankings, if they really do this, the word e-sports will be completely meaningless.

The older generation of e-sports people have worked hard to prove its value and significance. It is actually easy to destroy it.

The group stage is completely over, and there will be a draw ceremony and the filming of the promotional video for the quarter-finals, which will require a one-day stay in Guangzhou.

"Walk, walk, eat, eat!"

"General Sturgeon has already ordered the dishes."

By the time everyone packed up their bags and walked out from the backstage, Jack, who had been waiting outside for a long time, already looked anxious.

"Let's take a look at the draw on the way. Anyway, the two No. [-] seeds won't touch each other." Ah Shui said, and the IG people in the car also laughed brightly.

EDG got the No. [-] seed, and the happiest thing is their IG.

I can't beat them, I really can't beat them. After training together for so long, even if they are against the stronger Jack Ai, they still start the game in [-], not to mention that Xiaoxi is the AD of this World Championship.

Both the midfield and the jungle are fine. After dozens of training matches between the two sides, everyone is in a [-]-[-] situation. Ah Shui was able to suppress Zet with his personal strength when he came on the field. The problem still occurs in the top lane.

As the champion top laner, Duke admitted more than once that he had been surpassed by TheShy, but even though everyone could clearly feel that TheShy's strength had improved, after playing a game with EDG, Nexus was able to do it again in the top lane in the second game. Suppressed TheShy in all aspects.

Pure monster.

That kind of self-review and self-evolution ability is simply inhuman in the eyes of everyone at IG. It doesn't matter if it is terrifyingly stable. As long as you lose to him once, it will be as if all your weaknesses have been seen through.

Of course, in the eyes of coaches like MAFA, the real gap between Jiang Chenglu, the little Jiang, and Jiang Zhun, the "big Jiang", lies in team fight support and overall awareness.

To put it simply, TheShy is too individualistic, while Nexus puts the team in an equal or even higher position while taking individualism into consideration.

On the bus, the team members chatted all the way towards the hotel.

"The four second seeds, as long as they don't encounter RNG, the other three can still beat each other. The easiest guess is TSM and MSF."

"Not necessarily, TSM doesn't dare to say more, but EDG and MSF have played against them. They are very strong and have hidden a lot of things." Jiang Zhun said sternly. He has memories of his past life and is not at all young. Look at this European Rabbit. If you draw the top eight, you still have to be on guard against the opponent's endless tricks against the Incense Burner Monster.

"Ah, 50.00% civil war, I really don't want to encounter RNG!" King Ning complained.

It's not that I'm afraid of the other party, it's just that the real "Civil War Fantasy God BUFF" on the other party is so scary.

"Then let's choose between TSM and SSG?" Jack turned over and came behind Jiang Zhun, "Hey, brother Zhun, please help us with IG again. Once you reach the semi-finals, we will send you delicious food every day."

Although he is not yet old enough to play, Jack really treats IG, which has a great atmosphere, as his own family.

"help?"

"I've done everything I need to say and practice. The advice I can give you now is to train hard and don't go out drinking during the World Championships." Jiang Zhunruo pointed out something, and someone in the seat in front of him said uncomfortably. Moved his body.Don't dare to talk.

Let's not talk about Nexus's current status in the hearts of EDG and their boss. Just talking about his physique, he is not good enough to fight. If he punches him, Nexus will have to beg him not to die.

Our Su Shen also secretly reminded himself that when he takes those idiots out to play in the future, he cannot drag Jiang Chenglu into them.

"The drawing of lots has begun!"

Nofe's reminder interrupted the chirping of the team members, and everyone quickly turned on their mobile phones to watch the live broadcast.

In the live broadcast room, there are already many viewers waiting for it.

Many people on the barrage are still discussing the previous game between EDG and Samsung.

[One thing to say, there is no suspense about the world’s number one top laner this year. Compared to the other two Nexus players, TheShy and Khan, who are qualified to compete, I feel that their performance in the group stage was a bit disappointing. 】

[I was confused by the flash bucket delivery guy. This guy is not afraid of taking the blame! 】

[Dare to operate, strong in strength, fast in support and stable in key points, it is indeed the only one that has reached the World Championships so far. 】

[Hey, hey, top eight of the World Championship, what do you mean by just discussing three top laners?Is it because I, Baiyun, am not qualified enough? 】

[There is nothing to discuss. The number one top laner in this year's World Championship must be born from WE's Three Musketeers. Wither was defeated by Brother Zhun. SKT's Hu Burou and U Huang were repeatedly beaten by Brother Han in the LCK. friction. 】

[WE: It’s over or not, can’t this World Championship end quickly? 】

[It’s better not to brag about it yet, no matter what you say without actually touching it once, some people will be unconvinced. 】

[The world’s number one top laner still has to win the championship, otherwise it will be embarrassing if someone introduces you as the world’s number one top laner and asks you which champion and which hero’s skin you have. 】

[Hahaha, brothers, look at IGAD’s Weibo! 】

IGAD, Xihuang’s Weibo?

There is nothing to see.

Just when the players in the live broadcast room were confused, a Weibo post from jackeylove in the counter bar had already spread a thousand stories.

A certain Navy AD: "In the penultimate game of the group stage, a well-known top laner made harsh words, telling General Sturgeon to order first. The food should be ready and he can come as soon as he goes!"

[With three stars, the wine is still warm?What e-sports Guan Yunchang...]

[Don’t tell me, brother Zhun really has some concerns about the second master. It’s a matter of three swords to chop anyone. 】

[The funnyness level of harsh words before the game +10%, the funnyness level of the e-sports version of warming wine and killing Hua Xiong +100%, the funnyness level of General Sturgeon’s ordering bar +10000%]

[Brother Zhun still listened to the advice and asked him to play harder in the World Championship. This can't even be called strong, it's just a random killing. 】

In the anti-bar, all the experience posts about EDG and IG.In short, it's all done with one word. Nexus must be the strongest top laner in this S competition, TheShy and Khan are tied for second, or the LPL duo is already aiming to meet in the finals.

All in all, what stands out is the bragging. If you win the bragging game and lose the bragging game, the LPL's traditional and old arts can be used.

Of course, due to the excellent performance of two teammates this year, RNG, a team that stumbled into second place in the group, was selectively forgotten by the players. It’s not bad if it’s not bad, and I hope someone will brag about it!

The discussion came to an abrupt end when the guest and host responsible for the lottery came on stage.

"Dear League of Legends summoners, after a long and fierce battle in the group stage, finally, our top eight teams for the 2017 Global Finals have been born. The next thing to do is the drawing ceremony."

After the host Yu Shuang read the opening remarks, he immediately explained the rules for drawing lots for the top eight.

The first point is that the principle of avoiding the same division in the group stage disappears, which means that what players commonly call a civil war will occur.

Secondly, teams that have already fought in the same group will not be assigned to the same half zone and will have to meet again unless they both advance to the finals.

On the stage, each of the eight teams selected their own assistants as representatives for the draw. The girl was close to IG's Baolan, and the two people's thin figures stood next to wolf, which was full of incongruity.

The two of them had to wait until the lottery was over and then drive with the leader to meet them.

The guest of the lottery invited to their home stadium is WE’s Xiye.

Poor classmate Su Wangzai had a look of resentment in his eyes and was forced to work overtime. They were obviously supposed to be one of the World Championships, but now he was the one drawing lots for the top eight.

"Hahahaha, who designed Su Wangzai's suit?"

After the host finished reading the opening remarks, Jiang Zhun and others' bus just arrived at the hotel. When they saw Xiye coming on stage, the few people who got off the bus almost missed their feet.

With this outfit, and her body like a dry cabbage, she looks like she is the second best if she doesn't hold it up.

Complaints were made, but everyone's eyes were still fixed on Xiye's little hands.

"No civil war, no civil war, no civil war!"

"Give three stars to Longzhu..."

Xiye showed the first note with the team name written on it that he drew from the No. [-] seed pool.

"The first team to enter the top half is the EDG team!"

"Please continue Xiye, the second team in the top half is..." Yu Shuang looked over, his expression suddenly dull, "Team LZ!"

“I’m going to fuck you, Su Wangzi is so hot!!”

"Okay, awesome, awesome, send the Dragon Ball to our half, right?"

On and off the stage, EDG players all put on masks of pain.

Meikou, who is the representative of the team, even twitched at the corner of her mouth, "Hey sister, I call you good guy, the LCK No. [-] seed was directly sent to our half. I'm really afraid that we broke through the quarterfinals and jumped to the finals, right?"

It’s not that the players are afraid of Longzhu, but when facing some strong teams, if you fight in advance, it means that you need to hand over more tactical reserves.

The next IG naturally stayed in the same division as SKT.

Xiye's face turned green, how lucky was he.

According to the rules, teams that have played in the same group will not stay in the same half zone, which means RNG will automatically enter the top half and either play EDG or LZ.

The barrage was a little slower, but I still understood.

[Your sister, WE, we didn’t let you come to the World Championship and you’re just playing with us like this? 】

[Ah ah ah, if not the top eight will have a civil war, the top four will have a civil war, and RNG will either fight EDG or LZ. Why do these two big brothers let us meet! 】

RNG fans are all Spartans.

After finally stumbling out of the group, you ended up with a devastating draw for the top eight?

The two strong men in the group stage stayed in the top half, so RNG cried.

To the first ball in the second seed pool!

When Xiye unfolded the colorful ribbons inside, the expression on his face suddenly turned from cloudy to sunny.

"TSM!!!"

[It’s so exciting, hahahahaha, Su Wangzai finally became a real person for a while, EDG’s top eight beat the top [-]. 】

[North American player: Why does your sister, a top eight player, suffer to become a top [-] player? God has destined that one of our two families must die, right? 】

[It was very uncomfortable at first, but suddenly I saw TSM and EDG, two former brothers who were drawn together, and I suddenly wanted to laugh. Why? 】

On the third ball, Xiye grinned directly.

SSG!

On the stage, RNG Silly Ming and corejj were about to go up to the stage to shake hands, but Ren Dong quickly stopped them.

[Hey, wait, wait, SSG and EDG are in the same group and cannot be divided into the same half zone, that is to say...]

"Yes, in the group stage, teams in the same group avoid the half-zone principle, which means that SSG's opponent is-SKT!!!"

boom! ! !
When the host mentioned SKT, the LCK players who were smiling just now were buzzing in their heads.
