Chapter 417 [The top eight are out! 】(1/2)

Being eliminated in the top 16 at home in their own country is undoubtedly a heavy blow for Samsung.

What's even more uncomfortable is that this is the second time within a year that they have been defeated by YM in a key battle.

It seems that Su Chen is the fate of the Samsung team.

Most of the spectators in the Busan stadium were Korean. When they saw Samsung GenG being eliminated from the World Championship in this way, it was difficult to accept it for a while.

This is the first LCK team to be eliminated in the group stage so far in the S competition, and it is also their second seed.

Emperor Pao Xiao's words at the opening ceremony echoed in the hearts of some people.

History is constantly moving forward, and LCK’s dominance seems to have really loosened!

At the contestants' table, Zhang Xiaowen was still confused, completely confused about the fact that his opponent had been eliminated.

"Isn't there one more game in the group stage? How come the opponent is eliminated?" he asked.

The left hand patiently explained:

"Today G2 has won three games after defeating TSM. Even if Samsung wins TSM tomorrow, it will only have two wins and is not qualified to compete with G2 in a PK playoff. That's why it is said that this is their life and death.

war."

"It does feel a little uncomfortable to be eliminated in the top 16." Xiaotian looked at the other side of the stage and saw the decadent expressions of the Samsung people, and couldn't help but feel a little lucky.

Every team that comes to Busan has fought hard in its own division for a year before getting a ticket.

No one wants to leave just like that, especially GenG who won the S championship last year.

But e-sports is so cruel, no matter how much effort you put in, no matter how firm your belief is in your heart.

The moment the crystal is shattered, the result cannot be changed.

"Let's go and say goodbye to our opponent." Su Chen was used to such scenes.

He summoned his teammates, said a polite farewell to the five GenG members, and then walked off the stage.

The moment everyone walked into the lounge from the passage, PDD and Meng Ma, along with all members of the coaching staff, applauded the players.

"Reaching the quarterfinals, the first small goal has been achieved, brothers played well!" PDD said happily.

"There is another game tomorrow, Mr. Prostitute, you are popping the champagne at halftime." Xiaotian hugged the back of his head and teased.

PDD waved his hand, put his arms around Su Chen's neck and said with a smile: "As long as you, Brother Su, are here, I don't believe anyone can do it!"

Su Chen shook his head helplessly, not wanting to dampen PDD's interest.

For him, qualifying as the No. 1 seed and entering the quarterfinals is just the beginning.

The real test is yet to come.

However, PDD's confidence in Su Chen is not groundless.

After playing five B01s in the group stage, Su Chen won five MVPs. This is the top level in history among previous S competition performances.

Even S5’s Marin can’t do this!

"The dust has settled for our Group D. The other groups are still struggling. The next two days should be very lively." Meng Ma adjusted the PPT and adjusted the schedule for the remaining two days of the group stage.

Among the remaining three groups, except for KT who has secured the No. 1 seed with four consecutive victories, there are still variables in Groups A and B.

"RNG won't really qualify with the second seed," Left Hand stared at the schedule on the screen, "If that's the case, the LPL civil war won't start until the top eight."

The basic rule of the quarter-finals is No. 1 seed vs. No. 2 seed.

All three LPL teams have entered the knockout rounds. If RNG and IG are both the second seeds, the probability of YM hitting them is still very high.

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

"I hope they can perform well. There's nothing we can do if we really encounter them." Su Chen shrugged and said indifferently.

After a short rest, RNG and FW from Group A took to the stage.

After experiencing YM's big victory in the last game, LPL commentators are also very confident in RNG's victory.

"Although RNG was reversed by C9 in the first round, it was an overturn when the economy was ahead at 12,000. As long as all players are online, RNG should be able to win steadily." Wawa said with a proud expression.

Although RNG and C9 both won two games and lost one in the first round, he has too much confidence in Uzi. In addition, Group A itself is the least competitive group. It is a miracle that RNG can lose one game to C9.

, how could it be possible to lose again.

Under the confident explanations of Wawa and Miller.

RNG finally gave the Flash Wolves a victory in 38 minutes!

Objectively speaking, the Flash Wolves played really well in this game.

Especially in the middle and upper positions, Hanabi's Crocodile and Maple's Zuo Yin both performed explosively.

But the biggest contributor was Casa's Troll. The two dragon failures gave the Flash Wolves the opportunity to delay the game.

In the key team battle, the pillar he set up blocked Xiaohu's movement and gave Flash Wolf a chance to win.

After the game, everyone in RNG walked into the tunnel without saying a word. On the other side, all members of Flash Wolves looked excited and celebrating.

"I didn't expect that we actually lost to the Flash Wolves this time. Now G has won a game and is ranked first in Group A." Miller said awkwardly.

Wawa was also very dissatisfied: "I think RNG's two losses were too strange. Each game took nearly forty minutes to determine the winner. Also, I think Xiangguo should be replaced.

Now, with Casa in this state, I think it needs to be adjusted."

After the news of RNG's upset loss to Flash Wolves again spread back to China, a fierce criticism meeting broke out on the Internet.

[What did Pizza fight with? Are you here to serve your country with loyalty?]

[Pay attention to the quality upstairs, Casa is really fascinated by this game, but no one talks about the output of Xiaohu’s Ryze 8800? 】

[When I was overturned by C9 in the last round, I remember some people said that they would give away a random game to North America. Why are you so anxious now? 】

[We are also an LPL team. YM beat the top four of MSI in Group D. IG only lost to KT in Group C. I didn’t expect RNG to give the No. 1 seed to C9. I gave you the chance but you didn’t use it.

ah!】

[I also laughed at the fact that Samsung was eliminated in the top 16. I thought that if GenG were placed in Group A, the people who went out to the top 16 might have been replaced]

[Alas, I hope Gouzi can stand up in the next two games, I don’t want to see the civil war start in the LPL quarterfinals]



Amid the expectations of the audiences in all major competition areas, the last two days of the Busan group stage also concluded one by one.

In Group D, YM and G2 finally won the first and second seeds respectively.

Because the results have been determined in advance, in the next two B01 small games, several teams played quite casually and replaced each other with substitutes for trial formations.

YM became the first team to win six games in the S8 World Championship and advance to the knockout rounds.

But this result is actually only two hours ahead of KT.

After easily defeating MAD, KT also entered the knockout rounds with a 6-0 record and the No. 1 seed.

In the same group, IG had a record of 4-2 and got the second seed.

This result is quite satisfactory for both LCK and LPL.

Although the second seeds of the two major regions pulled their hips at the same time, on the scene, both KT and YM were undefeated, and the LCK could not say that they had lost.

After locking a ticket on IG.

The pressure also came to RNG.

After losing to FW in the last game, they were criticized online.

After all, they were assigned to Group A, which had the easiest schedule. If they couldn't qualify as the No. 1 seed, they would be considered a failure.

After a night of adjustments, RNG has indeed regained its form. First, it boosted the confidence of the audience with a crushing victory over PVB with zero seals.

Then they successfully avenged C9 and won after a wave of team annihilation in 29 minutes.

Guan Zeyuan, the commentator of this scene, couldn't help but shout: "This is the RNG we are familiar with. They may occasionally make mistakes, but they will never trip over the same stone three times!"

However, even if they win against C9, the scores are the same and they are both wins.

Group A had an extra play-off to determine the number one seed in the group.

Everyone in RNG stepped onto the stage with confidence, but they didn't expect that G would have a super rebound!

Jian Huang, who carries the hope of the entire North American division, used his unique mid laner Enchantress to lead his team to victory in the playoff with a record of 11-2-7.

The fans of the royal family in front of the screen had a cerebral hemorrhage watching it.

In this way, RNG, like IG, will advance to the knockout rounds as the second seed.

The probability of a civil war in the top eight of the LPL is really high!

After the playoffs in Group A.

There are only Group B matches left in Busan.

Probably stimulated by KT's victory and qualifying, and the warning of GenG going home in the top 16, the African team AFS played particularly hard in the second round.

AFS won all three games. Kiin showed off two Sword Queens in a row, with a total KDA of 14-2-9. The hot state became the key to the team's victory.

On the other side, FNC, which was in stable form in the first round, also suffered a rare upset loss to 100T after being revenged by AFS.
