LOL: Brother Koi, stop showing off!

Chapter 173 The occupation of Evergreen!

Since the S competition was designated, more and more professional teams have landed at Tianhe International Airport.

Judging from the news posted by each team, the teams in the finals have arrived in Wuhan for training early.

We can also see more foreign spectators. They come from all over the world, including European spectators, North American spectators, and even from Brazil and the wild card small competition area. Because of their love, they followed the footsteps of the S competition and embarked on the journey to China.

September 9 at eight o'clock in the evening.

The first wave of climax before the start of the World Championship!
The global alliance audience is focused in front of the screen, and the S7 lottery ceremony is about to begin.

Ren Dong, Li Chun, and Eleven are sitting in the LPL studio.

At this time, the League of Legends TV station, League of Legends, and official event website are broadcasting the entire draw, as are all major live broadcast platforms.

No matter which channel it is, the huge amount of traffic can be felt from the number of barrages crossing the screen.

Under the influence of past results, the third seed in the LPL also needs to enter the group stage.

IM team's top laner "Ancient Beauty" AmazingJ and IG team's mid laner "Fake XJ Man" Rookie appeared on the lottery table on time. The lottery ceremony was held in the United States. The two guests came to Los Angeles in advance to participate in the ceremony.

The draw for the finals is not exciting, mainly because there are too many experienced babies participating.

RNG failed to draw with the RPG team in the LJL division.

"It's a pity that the chance to live a small life is gone."

"Yeah, I want to see me being tortured and crying when I was little."

“AJ’s hands stink”

"The third draw in Group A should be reused and let Sun Gou draw it. You can find the little life by smelling the cherry blossoms."

There was a lot of ridicule in the barrage and comments section.

After a few minutes of boring waiting, we finally entered the tense group stage draw.

Inside the WE base.

Li Jin and others, like all major teams, paid great attention to the draw ceremony.

Those who aspire to win the championship do not need to care about the draw. Having said that, everyone wants to have an easy schedule.

Last year, Samsung smoothly entered the finals, which was much more comfortable than the fierce battle between SKT and the Tigers in the first half.

In front of Pool No. [-].

The handsome old-fashioned man raised his hand to flick the four small balls, picked up one of them, unscrewed it and took out the team tag.

AJ smiled and showed to the camera.

Whether it was the live commentary in Los Angeles or the three Ren Dong from the LPL broadcast platform, Gu shouted:
"WE!"

As the scene of the Spring and Summer Cups appeared on the big screen, the old LCS commentator Riv kept talking:
“LPL spring and summer double championship, 2017 MSI championship, WE will be one of the favorites to win this S7. They have last year’s finals Fmvp player TheJin. Audiences who follow WE will be familiar with it. TheJin also maintains a super performance this season. High level."

Riv, who has white hair, knows all his treasures, and Smith next to him smiles and answers.

"Riot's list of the top 20 players has not yet been announced, but I think TheJin can be ranked very high."

……

"The first one is us!"

Xiao Duan and Xiye both let out an "ouch", and everyone was very excited.

Perhaps because they felt the atmosphere of S7, several people were breathing heavily, and Li Jin smiled slightly.

"Pool [-] is not very important. The key is to see which teams will be drawn in Pool [-]."

Xiye clasped her hands towards the ancient-style handsome man and said, "Give me some strength behind the cock, let's get a good draw. Please, don't push SKT into Group A."

957 looked narrow-minded: "You killed Faker alone, why are you still afraid of SKT?"

"One code equals one code. No one wants to beat SKT."

Hongmi hid a trace of worry and muttered: "Longzhu may be more difficult to deal with than SKT."

"Longzhu is also the number one seed, we can't compete in the group stage."

"Brother Jin, the Dragon Ball duo are your old teammates."

"Yes."

Li Jin said in a humorous tone: "I feel more interesting and energetic when playing against my old teammates."

When everyone heard what he said, they secretly cursed.

Koi carps have a reputation of "happy to kill their old boss".

Facing old teammates, the methods are more severe, as if there is a "plastic brotherhood" buff.

For example, this year’s victim, Little Peanut, was in her period.

Everyone just thought about it, maybe it was made fun of by fans.

After chatting for a while, the old-style handsome man successively picked out LZ, G2, and FW, and divided them into three groups of BCD.

AJ goes down and it's the cock's turn to pump.

The first draw in the second pool of Group A.

"Msf!"

Europe's second seed, the Rabbitohs.

Everyone cheered, feeling quite happy.

A violent female tank with a passion for war automatically appeared in Li Jin's mind.

The Rabbitohs are truly artistic.

Group B drew the Imt team, and Samsung, which did not need to enter the playoffs, was directly drawn into Group C, and then became EDG to appear in Group D.

61e people started to cheer.

In Pool [-], Flash Wolf is definitely the best one to beat.

The cock continued to pump.

The next pick in Group A is TSM.

"Nice!"

Long Nan, 957 and others cheered again.

"A European team, a North American team, WE is a great draw."

"Actually, it doesn't matter whoever WE draws, they can advance anyway."

"Yes, WE's hard power should be the first echelon of S7. We have advantages in head-to-head competition with Longzhu and SKT."

Someone said in the comment area:
"Actually, Broiler can beat SKT. I feel more at ease when WE beats SKT. Jin Ge is professional in playing Bang, but RNG and EDG are not stable. After all, it is best for all LPL teams to advance to the World Championships at our doorstep. "

Someone else mentioned:
"This year's finals will be held in the Bird's Nest. This is the top priority. It would be a shame if the LCK continues to play the LCK like in previous years and set up a stage to sing for others."

……

Next door, Longzhu is also a good draw, and it was drawn into GAM in the wild card division.

The Broiler drew SKT in the penultimate draw, but there were already three stars in Group C. They avoided being in the same division in the group stage, and SKT was automatically assigned to Group D.

The remaining AHQ came to Group C.

So, Flash Wolves, EDG, and SKT are crowded together.

It is conceivable that they will be the most competitive group in the group stage.

It immediately triggered a carnival of black people, jumping in front of the 61e people and asking: "This year's top [-]?"

……

That night, the Luquan forum was not peaceful because of the group stage draw.

Riot will create popularity.

At noon the next day, the official released the "2017 Global Finals Top 20 Players List", commonly known as the Poisonous Milk List.

Because the list is placed upside down, what comes into view is:

TOP20: Doublelift
Official review: He is getting better and better at figuring out the right amount of damage output and ensuring his own survival. Doublelift wants to wipe out past failures on the international stage.

The big brother is stuck at the end of the list.

Because he is AD and is in the same group as Li Jin, there are naturally a lot of topics in the LPL.

The second AD down the list is Zven, the strongest shooter in the West ranked TOP16.

The dog fans were quite dissatisfied.

The ID of Uzi only appears in the TOP14, and is still below the 13 crown brothers, not even in the top ten.

In today's version of the incense burner, this is obviously a bit disrespectful.

The official evaluation is:
"Uzi can suppress last hits online and suppress the opponent's economy. His potential is bottomless, but his stubborn temper has caused him to suffer a lot."

u1s1, this time Riot’s evaluation struck many people as being pertinent.

But the fans of Yujianmen were not convinced. After 61e got into a turmoil due to public opinion about the group grouping, the fans of Yujianmen started a turmoil again with the list.The circle is really lively.

Pig fans can no longer argue as they look at the list.

Because I couldn’t find Qi Jiang from beginning to end, but Long Nan and Xi Ye from WE made the list consecutively.

Xiye was even ranked in the TOP8, which was the highlight of her career.

TOP5 Khan.

TOP4 and TOP3 are Gorilla and Pray respectively.Dragon Ball's top laner and duo occupy three of the top five spots, and are almost the strongest on paper.

The audience was not surprised.

As the No. [-] seed in the LCK, Longzhu should have been more impressive.

Unfortunately, the first two are too convincing.

TOP2: Faker!

Riot’s reviews all come with a bit of a filter:
"As always, Faker still has to go that route, and he has to prove everyone wrong. This year, his goal is still the third championship in his career. He has shown great strength since the summer split, and he is still ranked among the best in the world. Strong echelon.”

Let many LPL players have a proud moment.

At the top of the pyramid of the poisonous milk list, above the big devil.

Occupied by an LPL player!

This is something that has never happened since the World Championship. It is a new chapter.

Fans' eyes moved across the list word by word, and each word lingered for more time, seemingly full of meaning.

The top 2017 people in RIOT's 20 global finals.
TOP1: TheJin.

Location: AD.

Team: WE.

League: LPL.

Comments:

"This evergreen player in the league has participated in five global finals. His identity continues to change and his strength continues to grow."

"From professional coach to professional player, from behind the scenes to on the field, TheJin has won 3 coaching championships + 1 global finals championship + 1 Fmvp in S competition."

"This year, he stood out from other bottom lane players with his stable performance and flexible playstyle in the AD position. Whether you need a strong starter, a hardcore core, or a leader with a long-term vision, TheJin can come up with a commanding A very satisfying answer.”

"It's unbelievable, he's going for his fifth crown."

……

Riot puts a layer of filters on when evaluating Faker, and it also puts on a filter when evaluating Li Jin.

In the past, Riot did not mention the coaching championship from S3 to S5, but this time it mentioned it very much, for fear that such information would be missed due to insufficient publicity.

When the global finals are held in China.

When this list is presented to LPL fans, everyone will be delighted after seeing it.

Riot Games needs to build confidence for LPL players to prevent an accident in the global finals from causing the collapse of the region with the most viewers and fans.

Now that Li Jin exists, of course they must establish a spiritual pillar.

In case the LPL loses, at least the audience has some hope.

Let everyone know that the player with the most honors is in the LPL.

Although Riot controls the version in the bottom lane and hopes that the LPL can win, they have no control when it comes to the canyon.

LCK has won the championship for four consecutive years, and Riot is also numb.

Although Msi was lost this year, referring to S5, how powerful the LPL was at that time, the LCK can still win the championship, and there is no suspense.

Riot is bent on maintaining a balance in the division, but current developments worry them.

The appearance of Li Jin was an unexpected surprise to the entire alliance.

It is no exaggeration at all, the bosses at the headquarters are really cheering for LPL.

This version is for you, and we won’t target the mid-season championship. LPL veterans, this is interesting enough.

After the poisonous milk list was announced, WE immediately forwarded it to the official homepage.

The fans gathered on Hupu, Tieba and other sites were involved in heated discussions.

#TheJin, the 20 strongest players in the world have reached the top of the league! #
……

Esports inside the Louvre.

[How do you evaluate this year’s poisonous milk list? 】

The friends below are very excited:
"Faker has been pushed down, but Brother Jin is standing in front of him! This is the first time someone from the LPL has topped the list!"

"We deserve the title. Brother Jin has the greatest contribution to WE's current achievements. With all the honor and strength in place, there is nothing wrong with ranking first."

"This year's list is in line with expectations and has been verified by the specific World Championships. Come on LPL!"

"Brother Koi's strength won't be discredited by anyone, right?"

"It's so funny. Some people say that four crowns in four years is not valuable! Hahaha!"

"No one will say WE is stupid anymore, right? No. [-] in the world, you are making a lot of money!"

"Ten years old fan, come uninvited."

……

Riot’s investment in publicity has worked, sparking heated discussions in all competition regions.

LPL fans are even more delighted.

Before the start of the World Championship, the teams that came to Wuhan in advance entered training match mode.

There are many teams competing against WE.

On the Hongmi side, after communicating with other coaches, basically anyone is welcome as long as the time is reasonable.

A few days later, news came out from the training match.
TSM controlled the thunder and lightning, and they were invincible again.

But this has obviously become a famous joke, and no one takes it seriously.

Everyone is excited and nervous at the same time. The situation in S7 is very unclear. It feels like many teams have the possibility of competing for the championship.

Unlike last year, there were two complete teams, ROX and SKT.

This year SKT is not as strong as last year, and Longzhu does not feel as suffocated as the Tigers.

In the LPL, although WE wins all the big games, it often loses in the small games, and its players sometimes perform poorly.

There are many strong opponents in the World Championship, and they will definitely face greater pressure. It is difficult to guarantee what kind of performance WE will have by then.

When the training camp is in full swing, there are different opinions from the outside world.

But this kind of suspenseful game is even more eye-catching.

As time goes by, more and more viewers are paying attention to the S7 Global Finals, and the traffic has gone out of the circle.

9 month 23 day.

The 2017 e-sports feast has kicked off, and the finals have officially begun.

RNG, which entered Group A, did not disappoint the LPL audience. It won 4 consecutive victories in a small trial and became the first in Group A.

Then they easily defeated YG in the knockout round and got a spot in the main draw.

Fans of Yujianmen were originally disgusted with the finals, but RNG felt better and better through the finals.

It's a good thing if you think about it carefully.

Not playing in the playoffs is still training, but it is better to adapt to the rhythm earlier at the competition site.

Along with RNG, C9, FNC, and 1907 Fenerbahce Esports Club (FB) from the Turkish Division also advanced.

The HKA team from the LMS division was upset.

On the day when the competition ends on September 9, the four promoted teams will participate in the draw.

Because of the need to avoid competition areas, Group A has both LPL and European and American teams, and can only be entered through FB.

This is a unique draw that makes EDG and RNG cry with envy.

As the three teams then entered their respective groups, the grouping situation was officially locked.

Group A: WE, Msf, TSM, FB
Group B: LZ, IMT, GAM, FNC
Group C: G2, SSG, AHQ, RNG
Group D: FW, EDG, SKT, C9
……

Before the official start of the group stage, Li Jin met his old teammates from last year in a Wuhan restaurant.

Chat with Gorilla and Pray and talk to them about the current situation.

Everyone still has a tacit understanding.

Looking forward to meeting each other in the competition.

Li Jin fulfilled his promise again on the evening of October 10 and treated Xiao Peanut to a meal of tomato scrambled eggs.

This mouthful is very good.

Recently, mainstream junglers are all vegetarian, and Little Peanut is not happy with it.

He always won the MVP in the mid-season. From the summer split version to now, he has been at a loss.

Coupled with SKT's tactical requirements.
For a carnivore to become a vegetarian, it is somewhat unaccustomed.

Two nights later, Manager Little Beast asked everyone to go to bed early.

WE team homepage forwarded a koi.

Edited this paragraph:
"The opener tomorrow, wish us good luck."
