Chapter five hundred and nineteen: The second round of waves(1/2)
October 5 to October 8.
For viewers who want to watch the game, the 4-day period is really a long wait.
But for all the major teams, this period of time is extremely precious.
After the first round of the group stage, each team has its own gains.
There is a profound interpretation of the current version.
There is no doubt about this. Today, Pullman gathers 16 top teams and analysts in the world. Professional players engage in high-intensity confrontations every day. This is a world-wide exchange. Each team has its own style. They are all explaining their understanding of this version.
During the battle with different teams and witnessing the confrontation between other teams, everyone gained something.
At the same time, I also saw my own shortcomings.
If there is suspicion of testing in the first round of the group stage, then in the second round of confrontation, most teams will take out their trump cards and make final efforts to qualify for the group.
The rules of the second round of the group stage are very different from those of the first round.
In the second round of the game, each group of games will be completed in one day.
In other words, you have to play three BO1 games a day and determine the qualifying spots for the group on the same day.
The intensity of the game and the pressure off the field will be greater than the first round.
The test of the contestants' mentality and will has also been raised to a higher level.
During these four days, each team was training hard.
Even European and American teams with very little training volume before have been trained more.
For several consecutive days, Li Zixiu heard the movements coming from the European and American training rooms.
The big brothers in Europe and the United States have also started to stay up late to train.
EDG did not relax, but prepared as planned.
The second round is the easiest to fail. Think about it, after a group of strong men found the routine, they worked together to study and train, make progress, realize their potential, and have a trend of the version... Various reasons will cause some teams to transform.
All wins in the first round and then all loses in the second round. This situation has happened frequently.
For each team that is training hard, the four-day offseason is fleeting.
The second round of the battle begins!
October 9th.
The battle in Group A was completely launched!
KOO, CLG, FW, PNG, four teams, six games.
In this round of the game, the Lightning Wolf attacked KOO, which made the Korean audience feel worried in the first game of the second round of Group A.
The Tigers were given a big defeat by the Lightning Wolf!
People were shocked, whether it was AHQ or FW, the two Bay Bay teams, S5, really should not be underestimated.
In this game, KOO released the captain and was won by the Lightning Wolf's middle lane.
Although the captain was suppressed by Lulu in the middle of KOO in the early stage, FW held on until the moment the captain got up.
In the mid-term team battle, Maple detonated the powder keg and triggered a critical strike.
This bucket sent KOO to hell.
Afterwards, FW counterattacked wildly, expanding its economic lead to 8,000, breaking through the three KOO high ground, adding suspense to the final qualifying ranking of Group A.
The audience also realized that not everyone can let the bug heroes like Captain.
Even the Tigers, it won't work.
CLG defeated PNG and got the second point, approaching his points with the two teams ahead.
The next battle between CLG and KOO is very important.
Unfortunately, CLG had problems in the middle lane and was chased hard by KOO. The North American senior brother was powerless and CLG was unfortunately defeated.
Suddenly, North American fans were desperate.
PNG cannot defeat FW, which means that no matter what the subsequent game is, CLG has lost hope of qualifying.
The No. 1 seed in North America, the strongest Wings of Hope, will be out of the group stage and miss the quarterfinals!
At this moment, North American audiences could not accept it.
Doublelift, a North American senior brother known as the living fossil of e-sports, shone tears after the game and sat in his seat weakly.
From the LCS summer championship to the group stage stop, the elder brother felt sad.
But this is e-sports, this is the global finals.
No matter how glamorous you are in the league and cannot adapt to the soil of the World Championship, you can only be eliminated.
The loser will eventually leave!
Although CLG defeated FW again later, that made no sense anymore.
The Tigers qualified as the first place in Group A with 5 points, the Lightning Wolfs qualified as the second place in Group A with 4 points.
CLG scored 3 points, but the wild card PNG didn't get a single point, and both were eliminated.
Watching Group A fight on stage and the cruel scenes in the end, the other three teams each woke up.
The only time left for your team is the last day left.
The next day, it was the turn of Group C to confront each other.
The first game was a showdown between LGD and C9.
In the last fight, LGD released the Iron Man, resulting in a crushing defeat in the team.
The KOO and FW matches are ringing in LGD's ears.
If you go against the version, the final outcome will not be very good.
Although LGD is in the blue side, they actively banned the Iron Man in the third hand.
Why banned?
Because Imp is really not good at playing this routine, traditional AD heroes are more conducive to Imp's performance.
If they can't help but C9 can't help but be in the third hand, it would be like C9's rebel against the army.
LGD, don't want to make these tricks anymore.
The audience of LPL cheered because LGD won again!
Next, SKT vs. H2K, Yue Lun's revenge plan was once again failed, and SKT easily won.
LGD fought against H2K again and achieved two consecutive kills against H2K!
At this time, C9 also lost to SKT.
The qualifying format of Group C suddenly became clear.
LGD, which was originally very dangerous, stood on the shore at once!
After H2K defeated C9 and SKT defeated LGD again, the drama of Group C came to an end.
SKT scored 6 points, first in the group.
LGD scored 3 points, second in the group.
H2K and C9 are in trouble, one is 2 points and the other is 1 point, and both work together to return home.
On October 11, the second round of Group D started.
In the first game, EDG fights KT, Ssumday failed to take revenge and fell in front of Li Zixiu again.
However, KT is not as good as the top and is more than the bottom.
Whether it is TSM or OG, they are all teams that are restrained by KT.
Ssumday is a point they can't solve.
The last game between EDG and TSM has not started yet, but the qualifying spots in Group D are already clear.
KT scored 4 points, firmly occupying the second place in the group.
For North American audiences, it was the last night at Pullman's venue.
After tonight, all the seeds of North America No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 will be eliminated.
In the entire European region, only the king of Europe is left to take the lead.
“TSM!”
“TSM!”
“TSM!”
“…”
The tragedy is already destined, but the audiences on the scene are still devoted to their passion.
To be continued...
