Chapter 102 Three consecutive losses on the first day?This is LPL's home field advantage? (seeking a monthly ticket)

Wuhan Sports Center.

Although the opening ceremony of the group stage didn't officially start until three o'clock in the afternoon, as early as twelve o'clock at noon, the square outside the Wuhan Sports Center was already crowded with people.

Countless LPL fans from all over the country and League of Legends players from all over the world gathered here today to witness the official opening of the S7 World Championship group stage.

It's just that looking around, the entire square is full of LPL spectators holding the flags of RNG, EDG and WE teams, or wearing the corresponding team uniforms. Compared with the three local teams in the LPL division, the rest The number of fans of the teams in the competition area can be counted on the fingers.

If the three teams in the LCK division still have a considerable number of Huaxia fans, then the Huaxia fans belonging to the EU division are almost a drop in the bucket!
"Dark, you really hit the spot, our G2 team really doesn't have Huaxia fans!"

"I'm speechless. I saw the fans of the FNC team just now, but I just didn't see the fans of our G2 team."

"What's the matter, is Ou Cheng more handsome than me? Why does he have fans and I don't?!"

On the way to Wuhan Sports Center by bus, all G2 members naturally saw the huge crowds at the moment.

In addition to lamenting that the Chinese audience is full of people and enthusiasm, Perkz and others are more complaining.

Because apart from some white faces, they really didn't see any Chinese audience willing to become fans of their G2 team!
As for the reason, you can figure it out with your toes, it's all because of Dak, the big devil!

"Haha, don't worry."

"Although I have an enmity with the LPL division, many LPL viewers don't like our G2."

"But you still don't understand the audience of LPL. They seem to be very united on the surface, but they are actually a mess. When it's time to fight, they will fight among themselves."

"And what I can assure you is that in this S7 World Championship, if our G2 can really eliminate three LPL teams in a row, we will definitely attract a group of Chinese audiences and become fans of our G2 team !"

"Because of the strength of e-sports, if the LPL division completely disappoints the LPL audience, then a large part of them will become fans of our G2 out of hatred."

"You guys can understand the logic behind this, right?"

Mingrui explained to everyone with a smile. Of course, what he actually wanted to say was that black fans are also fans, but it is obvious that what the G2 teammates want is true fans!
"Understood, since this is the case, then we have to beat the LPL team hard."

"By the way, I also beat the teams that beat the LCK, and also attracted a wave of fans from the LCK side."

"After all, next year's S8 Finals will be held in Incheon, Bangzi Country. I don't want to go to Incheon then. Our G2 fans are still very few."

Everyone in G2 smiled and said, then took the bus to the parking lot of the sports center, and then rushed to the temporary lounge provided for each team in the stadium to rest.

After waiting for a while, everyone finally received the news that the opening ceremony of the S7 World Championship group stage is about to begin!

……

When China time came to three o'clock in the afternoon, the audience was extremely lively. With the end of the countdown on the big screen and the sudden dimming of the lights, the audience instantly became silent.

The next moment, an animation effect of a fist smashing glass suddenly appeared in the center of the big screen at the scene, and then, the official Riot logo appeared impressively.

And its appearance also means that the promotional video for the opening ceremony of the World Championship group stage has officially started to play!
I have to admit that the quality of Riot's official promotional videos is still very good.

As soon as it came up, the video gave global audiences a panoramic view of Wuhan, traditional buildings, and beautiful pictures of the Yingwuzhou Yangtze River Bridge.

As the camera moved down, as the BGM of the theme song "Legends Never Die" of the League of Legends S7 World Championship sounded, the back of a player wearing the EDG team uniform and writing "Clearlove7" ID appeared slowly!

And this person is the most representative player of the LPL, one of the most influential League of Legends professional players in the world, the captain of the EDG team, and the promise of the factory director!

"If I play in Wuhan, there will definitely be many Wuhan fans coming to support me."

"With their encouragement, I will definitely play better and better and become the pride of Wuhan players. At the same time, I will definitely lead the EDG team, represent the LPL division, and win the first S championship!"

In the promotional video, the factory manager took the lead in announcing their EDG team's goals for the S7 World Championship.

Then, the video transitioned, and the Riot officials were more troublesome. They brought up Ou Cheng, the FNC team player who successfully defeated the EDG team 5-4 in the S0 World Championship.

"I always think that the best thing about the global finals is that no matter what happened before, the current results should speak for themselves."

But what is even more troublesome is that Ou Cheng seems to have been instigated by the EDG team, and he said such a statement that all EDG fans deeply agree with!

The third one to appear in the promotional video is another most representative player in the LPL division, the RNG team, Uzi!

"From the first time I entered the World Championship to the present, there have been four times in total."

"I have won the runner-up twice, and I feel that I am a little bit worse each time."

"So this time, I will definitely not miss the chance to win the championship at home!"

Uzi said loudly, the place where he looked, was full of raging fire.

The professional player who made his debut at the finale was Faker, the mid laner of the Triple Crown SKT team from the LCK division!
"People say you can become a legend just by beating me. I don't think that's true."

"Since beating Ambition in my debut, I've held the No. [-] spot for a long time, and that's why people consider me a legend."

"So, to be a legend, you have to beat a player like me many times."

"Now, let's invite the next talented mid laner!"

When Faker's face looking down on the world appeared, an aura belonging to the defending champion burst forth.

But in the next moment, the fist official conveniently made the factory manager's unconvinced eyes very "intentional", and Uzi's determination to win the championship was displayed later, and then, the representative figures in other competition areas showed again.

So, with the singing of the S7 theme song again, the promotional video for the opening ceremony of the group stage ended here.

As for why there is no appearance of any member of the MSI champion G2 team?The answer is self-evident.

At this moment, the live broadcast screen finally switched from the promotional video to the scene, so the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause and cheers, welcoming the eyes of League of Legends players from all over the world, focusing on China and Wuhan at this moment!
"Okay, this is Huaxia Wuhan! Welcome to the League of Legends 2017 Global Finals!"

"Hi everyone, I am the host Ren Dong!"

As the live camera freezes on the stage, the host Ren Dong began his opening speech.

"After a season of fighting, 16 top teams from all major regions in the world will meet here, and once again attack the S7 world champion!"

"Now, all the teams are ready."

"Then let us welcome the team to the stage!"

There is no performance in the opening ceremony of the group stage, only the team debut ceremony.

But this is still the most anticipated part of the global audience!

First up is the Group A team SKT.

Why SKT?

Because as the S6 world champion, the SKT team needs to return the League of Legends world championship trophy while taking the lead.

And only when the S7 World Finals is over and a new world champion is officially born, this championship trophy will have a new ownership!

"SKT! SKT! SKT!"

Therefore, when the SKT team appeared on the stage, part of the audience burst into cheers, which is enough to show that the popularity of the SKT team in the LPL can be called terrifying... After all, not only Faker is the demon of the entire LPL, but the entire SKT team He is the demon of the entire LPL!
It may be to shorten the duration of the entire team's debut, so when the SKT team debuted, Ren Dong did not introduce any players, and announced the second team to debut, the AHQ team from the LMS division.

Then there is the 1907 Fenerbahce FB team from the Turkish Division.

Finally, there is the local team from the LPL division, the EDG team!

"EDG! EDG! EDG! EDG! EDG!"

When the five members of the EDG team appeared on the stage, the audience immediately burst into the most enthusiastic cheers, allowing the other teams in Group A to truly experience the small shock of what is called "home game".

Group A is on stage, followed by Group B.

The North American IMT team that took the lead in Group B, and the Vietnamese GAM team were not very popular, and the response from the scene was mediocre.

Even the LZ team, which upset the SKT team, did not have much cheers.

On the contrary, when the FNC team appeared on the stage, there was a burst of cheers at the scene. After a closer look, it turned out that none of the cheering fans were EDG fans.

And the debut ceremony of Group C of the Death Group that followed was a bit lively.

Although the TSM team that debuted first was not considered the favorite to win the championship, because TSM is a cult in North America, and the LPL audience is very familiar with the player Doublelift, there was a burst of cheers belonging to "TSM".

The cheers when the SSG team came on stage were also not small, especially a certain commentator in the commentary booth was even more excited at this time.

Then came the debut of the local team WE, and once again the most powerful voices erupted from the scene.

But when the last G2 team in Group C appeared on the stage, this powerful sound immediately turned into a burst of "booing" resounding through the audience!
"Call..."

"Go down!"

"The rubbish G2 team is out!"

"Garbage Dark get out of China!"

When the audience booed, not only the G2 players on the stage were a little embarrassed, but even the host Ren Dong standing aside was a little embarrassed.

Although they had already expected that when the G2 team appeared on the stage, the LPL audience would react greatly, but they never expected that their reaction would be so strong!

But on the other hand, in the G2 team, there was actually a person smiling hippie at this time, and even waved vigorously to the boos of the audience!

As a result, the riots in the audience became even bigger.

Because this person is clearly the Great Demon King of Dark, G2.Dark, who was unanimously targeted by the audience!

But even so, he is not ashamed, but proud!

"Dark! Get out! Dark! Get out! Dark! Get out!"

The more the LPL audience watched, the more angry they became, and the more they thought about it, the more angry they became, so much so that, driven by someone, they also gave Dark a "cheer".

But in this situation, Ming Rui became more and more happy.

Because these black fans are not only their living dark value providers, but also provide enough "revenge soil" for themselves!
"Haha, let's shout, the louder the better."

"The louder you shout, the more uncomfortable you will be when I eliminate the LPL team."

"I'm looking forward to it just thinking about it!"

Mingrui smiled softly, and then left the field with the C-group teams.

Then he suddenly thought of something, and laughed louder, because the scene just now has definitely made the LPL officials feel overwhelmed.

After all, Huaxia adheres to the etiquette of "it is a pleasure to have friends coming from afar". Although I am not considered a "friend from afar", as far as LPL officials are concerned, this group of "willful" LPL audiences must also brought them great trouble.

If you wait a while and ask yourself a scarf, or even don't need to send a scarf, maybe the LPL official will take the initiative to apologize!

I just don’t know at that time, whether this group of LPL viewers will regret their "momentary quickness" at this time.

After the debut of Group C, it is the final appearance of Group D.

When C9 and MSF came on stage, there were almost no cheers. When the FW team came on stage, the cheers were quite loud. Obviously, all the LPL audiences hoped that they would use their cheers to make the provincial team feel "home". warmth.

When the last local team, RNG, made its grand finale, the cheers of the audience once again reached an unparalleled level, but it was still difficult to tell from the decibels whether it was the EDG team that had more fans or the RNG team that had more fans.

"Heroes, strive for legends!"

"The 2017 League of Legends Global Finals begins now!"

After all the 16 teams in the group stage had finished their appearance, when the host Ren Dong announced in his loudest voice, this month-long S7 World Championship officially ushered in the first round of the group stage. A game day!

The schedule of the first day of the group stage can be said to be full of the careful thinking of LPL officials.

Because there are six games per day in the group stage, and only three groups can appear on the stage each day, in the first day of the game, the B group without the presence of the LPL team lost the opportunity to appear.

Moreover, in order to boost the overall morale of the LPL division, the LPL officials specially arranged three must-win matches among the three LPL team matches today!

They are the upcoming opening match, the match between EDG team and AHQ team.

And the third game, the game of RNG team C9.

And the sixth game, the match between WE team and G2 team!
LPL's official Sima Zhao's heart is already well known to passers-by.

Because they clearly want the EDG and RNG teams to win two group stage points in the hands of the two underdogs in the World Championship, and then let the WE team beat the G2 team, and let the LPL division win the first day of the group stage in one fell swoop. Get a 3-0 record and let the entire LPL division feel proud on the first day of S7!
The small calculations in the LPL competition area can be said to be crackling.

But they clearly miss an important point that is clearly visible to all.

That is, for the teams in the LPL competition area, the tradition of fighting insiders and outsiders in civil wars is really not based on mouth, but based on strength!
Therefore, since the intercontinental game on July 7th, after the entire LPL ushered in a national humiliation of e-sports, on October 7th, when the whole country was still immersed in the festive atmosphere of the National Day, the LPL team once again brought the entire LPL division. The second e-sports national humiliation!
After the opening ceremony of the group stage, at 3:7, the S[-] World Championship group stage ushered in the opening match on time, the match between EDG team and AHQ team.

Amidst the cheers of the audience, all LPL audiences believed that it was impossible for the EDG team to lose to the provincial team AHQ team.

The EDG team, as expected, did not disappoint again in terms of disappointing people!
In the opening game of this round, EDG team played very hard in the early stage, but when the fierce battle reached 50 minutes, EDG team's head score was still temporarily leading by 11 to 7, and the economic lead also had a full 8000 yuan!
But with such an advantage in hand, the game time was 52 minutes and 25 seconds. The mid laner hero Lucian selected by Scout was directly dropped by the plane selected by AHQ mid laner Ximen Yeshuo, and the remaining four players of EDG were defeated. After all were disabled, the AHQ team successfully won the big dragon that established the game!
So, in 54 minutes of game time, the AHQ team successfully overturned EDG with a head score of 12 to 11, and won the S7 World Championship!

At the same time, it also gave the EDG team and the entire LPL division a blow!
"In this game, the AHQ team did better than us."

"However, I believe that the EDG team will be able to adjust quickly and win back in the next game."

"At the same time, I also hope that the RNG team and WE team that will represent our LPL division will not be affected by the loss of the EDG team, but also use the loss of the EDG team to remind the two teams."

"There are no underdogs in the World Championships. Only by preparing carefully for each game can we have a chance to win every game!"

"LPL come on!"

In the commentary booth, the opening game commentary doll once again used his usual "encouraging" commentary, hoping that their encouragement can bring benefits to the LPL competition area.

But as Mingrui often said before, if encouragement is useful, the LPL division would have already been the world champion!

Whether a game can be won or not depends on whether the team is competitive enough!
And it is obvious that the teams in the LPL division will never give the LPL audience a chance!

After the opening match of the first day of the group stage, the second match was between the SKT team and the FB team in Group A.

If the wild card division can still create a little miracle in the play-in stage, then in the main match stage, facing such a powerful SKT team, there is almost no chance of winning.

So, in just 26 minutes, the SKT team took a head-to-head ratio of 10 to 5 and a huge economic lead of 1 yuan, and successfully won the SKT team itself and the LCK division.

Then the next thing is the game of the RNG team, which is once again expected by all LPL audiences!
In the third game of the first day of the group stage, Group D, the second seed RNG team in the LPL division played against the third seed C9 team in the NA division.

Before the game, no one thought that the C9 team could win, including their own audience in the North American Division.

After all, RNG is a team with the world's number one adc player Uzi, and it is a team that C9's adc player Sneaky dare not even make up for Uzi's face!
However, just when audiences all over the world believed that the RNG team was "undoubtedly victorious".

C9 team, on the first day of the group stage, broke the biggest upset of this World Championship!
In just 27 minutes, the C9 team defeated the mighty RNG team with an 11-2 head ratio, a huge economic difference of 4000 yuan, and a 3-0 dragon ratio!

Therefore, when the C9 team ushered in a good start in the NA division, it also successfully gave the LPL division two kneelings on the first day!

"I never imagined that the C9 team, which has entered the group stage from the play-in stage, has such a strong adjustment ability!"

"Facing the powerful RNG team, they selected a very stable lineup. Not only did they successfully defuse the RNG team's offensive, but they also took advantage of some small mistakes of the RNG team to slowly snowball."

"Although it is very regrettable, we still have to congratulate the C9 team for successfully winning this game!"

When the RNG team also lost the game, the two dolls Miller in the commentary booth suddenly showed panic, and instantly thought of something bad.

But the next moment, the baby still pretended to be calm.

"Although they lost, it must be a good thing for the RNG team, because they will definitely make better adjustments in the next game."

"At the same time, C9's victory also proves the necessity of holding a play-in match, because it does give strong teams a chance to practice and warm up in advance."

"If that's the case, I'm even more looking forward to today's last match between Team WE and Team G2!"

"It is also the WE team that entered the group stage from the qualifying stage. In the case of facing the old rival G2 team again, the boys of the WE team will definitely play a wonderful performance and win our LPL first in the group stage. A good start to the day!"

In the commentary seat, Baby Miller said confidently, firmly believing that their No. [-] seed in the LPL division can beat the No. [-] seed in the EU division.

After all, LPL is the number one division in the world!

As everyone knows, when Mingrui, who was training, heard that the EDG and RNG teams had successfully brought two consecutive losses to the LPL, he was immediately ecstatic!

"What? LPL lost both games?"

"The EDG team was turned over by the AHQ team?"

"The RNG team was tortured by the C9 team 11 to 2 with almost zero blood?!"

"Hahaha, God help me too!"

"Then we, G2, have to take this villain to the end in everything we say today, and send them a three-game losing streak on the first day of the LPL group stage, so that the LPL audience can experience once again what the hell is despair!"

Hearing this "good news", Mingrui laughed and said, Xindao LPL's tradition of civil war insiders and outsiders really deserves its reputation!
"Brothers, since the main purpose of our first match is to win WE, let's play more steadily today."

"It's enough to hit their WE with a Linglong Tower, and don't break the speedrun record of 1555!"

Immediately afterwards, Mingrui said firmly.
