LOL: Serve the country with loyalty, I have full attributes to resist Korea

Chapter 325: The quarterfinals are finalized! 《True Gods’ Battle!》 “Familiar” feeling!

On the night of the last day of the group stage, everyone watched the draw for the quarter-finals on time.

Since LPL and LCK each had a team eliminated in the round of 16, and RNG and JDG were both second seeds, the chances of LPL having a civil war in the quarterfinals are ridiculously high!
WE has only a one in three chance of not getting drawn into a civil war, and the best outcome is just drawing GAM.

Cheng Ming was thinking as he watched the drawing ceremony on the screen which was still going on.

But suddenly I heard my own voice coming from the side.

When I turned my head, I saw that it was Abin who was browsing Bilibili and found a collection of interviews he had given after the group stage.

North America's leading star sjokz held up the microphone and asked with a smile on his face: "Krd is still so amazing. In the 6 group matches, you got 5 eight-kill streaks and are super God! This is the stage of the World Championship!"

"Even compared to the previous two years of the S game, Krd seems to be constantly improving. I think all the audience and fans are curious, how did you do it?"

Facing the hopeful gaze in the blue pupils, Cheng Ming responded calmly and naturally.

"There's nothing special about it. I enjoy the process and every game I play is a pleasure for me."

“I usually don’t really care about the final stats, I just try to do my best.”

"I think if I just put all my energy into winning the game, it will all take care of itself."

At this point in the interview video, a clip of the New York North American commentator’s exclamations from the on-site crowd was edited in.

"Hey Peters, do you understand what Krd means?"

"Of course, that's what he's saying."

"Actually, I didn't use any skills at all, it's just that these opponents are too weak! I played the game casually, but you couldn't even let me die once!"

"Ha! Now that you mention it, our North American number one seed this year seems to be even more powerful!"

The commentator partner smiled and said, "Because our 100T is the only team in Group A of the group stage that Krd couldn't reach the top! It seems that our recruitment strategy this year was quite successful! At least, it was more successful than LEU!"

Peters rolled his eyes and spread his hands: "But your standard is too crazy, so now, even restricting Krd's super god is a success?"

"Huh? Why doesn't it count?"

"Haha, I think so too!"

…………

"It's you who's hurt by this pretentious brother Cheng. A single interview can get millions of views!" Abin typed on the screen while smiling strangely.

And Cheng Ming clearly noticed from the corner of his eye that several bullet screen boxes appeared on the video screen, representing the messages sent by his account.

He also vaguely glimpsed [Pure passerby, actually I think Bin is also this year.]

Cheng Ming couldn't help but laugh and said, "Bin, you use a large account to surf the Internet every day. Aren't you afraid that someone will catch you and use a boomerang in a few years?"

Abin waved his hand nonchalantly: "The comments are anonymous! How can it be so weird? I don't believe there are such perverts!"

Jack Ai leaned forward and quietly handed over his phone: "Chen Zebin, I have to say something to you. As a top-level top laner, your awareness of defending against ganks is not up to par. Look at my skills."

"I'm really tall! Brother Shuizi still has to be you!"

I saw that Jack’s favorite B station uid was [chengming9527], which was only one digit different from Cheng Ming’s big uid.

Jack loves to use this ultimate "high imitation account" to watch videos and post comments every day, just to prepare for a rainy day. Even if he is caught one day, no one will be able to find him!

Cheng Ming felt a little creepy when he saw the two guys who were obsessed with stealing things hugging each other and grinning.

But he didn't pay much attention to it and turned to look at the quarterfinal draw which had already begun.

"After eight days of fierce competition, out of the 8 teams participating in the group stage, only eight are left to advance to the next round of more brutal quarter-finals!" The North American bald head was full of passion.

"They are WE and 100T from Group A, DK and JDG from Group B, T1 and RNG from Group C, DRX and GAM from Group D..."

"Please welcome the guest draw, Rekkles!"

After being abandoned by FNC and G2 successively and having to turn to the French league, Ou Cheng was unable to enter the S game this year.

In fact, it can be seen from the forced smile on Ou Cheng's face that if it weren't for the official invitation from North America, he, as a non-retired player, would not want to be a guest at all.

Although his strength has obviously declined, he does not want to retire, nor does he want to let it end there, as he still has dreams.

So even though the annual salary offered by the French league team he joined this year was far below his worth, he was still willing to go, just to have games to play.

Of course, judging from the results this year, he will not stay in this team because it is too hopeless.

It was almost like waiting in a daze, watching the twilight of my career come to an end.

Therefore, Ou Cheng had already made a decision in his heart.

A decision that can be said to be beyond everyone's imagination!
He wants to seek to join the most powerful division and the most powerful team in the world, to learn, to become stronger, and to find his own future path!
Even if I have to completely abandon my status as world runner-up, I have to start all over again.

Even if I can only join the second youth training team of this team!
His original goal of "studying" was the T1 second team in the LCK region. After all, this team is not only the most legendary team in the world, but also has the oldest active legend as a role model.

But now, perhaps he has a new goal in his studies.

"As usual, the knockout stage of this World Championship will still be based on the half-zone system. The winner of a half zone will automatically become the opponent of the top four in the semi-finals!" The host once again explained the rules.

Rekkles began to draw a black ball from the glass basin in pool No. 4 in front of him, which contained four black balls.

And at the moment of untying the ribbon, his eyes seemed to become a little hot, and then he was slightly stunned and turned his hand to unfold it in front of everyone.

The team logo contained in the ribbon is a red lightning bolt, a new 'WE' icon, and a gold star in the center.

The noise at the scene suddenly exploded!
All LPL viewers also began to focus their attention on what was in front of them, praying that WE would not be drawn into a civil war.

Rekkles reached for the second seed pool the second time, and fortunately, what he pulled out was not the familiar team logo, which immediately calmed down many people.

"GAM! The first group matchup in the upper half of the quarterfinals has been set!" The North American bald guy shouted immediately.

The matchup in Group D was chaotic. Except for DRX which won 6-0, the other three teams all had a record of 2-4. In the end, it took two rounds of extra games to decide the result.

TES was just one step away, and the game that became a Vietnam War fermented bean curd was the last game of the extra game, which was truly despair.

"Okay, okay!" Jack rubbed his fingers.

Looking at his appearance, he seems to be already impatient to start the quarterfinals and "avenge" his old teammates!
The results of all the top eight teams soon became clear.

Upper half - WE vs. GAM, T1 vs. JDG.

Lower half - DRX vs. RNG, DK vs. 100T.

The result of this draw obviously makes some people happy while others are sad.

The discussions in the live broadcast room are overwhelming.

[Our superior horses beat the ox-horses, our inferior horses beat the superior horses, our ox-horses beat the ox-horses, MD Tian Ji is in trouble!!!]

[Don't be funny, DRX is the only team with an undefeated record besides WE. Why are 4-3 and 6-0 called bullshit?] [Don't be funny, too, what kind of people are in DRX's D group? It's weird that they didn't win all the games, do they think everyone is a Vietnam War veteran?]

[There's really nothing to be surprised about. Who made LPL pull out all the teams except WE this year? One team made it to the top 16, and two second seeds advanced. This also gives WE a chance to play against the Korean team! ]

[But it seems like this year and last year have the same scenario! The top four will play in the finals again! ? ]

[Wait for Lao Fei to be arrested by God K in the semifinals for two consecutive years, wait for another hand - the semifinals of fermented bean curd will be out! ]

Cheng Ming did not have too many doubts about this draw. After all, this was indeed the best result.

After all, except for one team in the round of 16, the remaining three Korean teams are all number one seeds.

And Cheng Ming looked at this sign, and for some reason, he always felt a sense of "familiarity"
However, when he opened the direct link to Twitter, he found that many Korean netizens were extremely optimistic about the results of this year's draw.

[Good sign, why is it a good sign? ! 】

[Two players from the bottom half of the division were sent to the semifinals! If it weren't for that bastard Samsung! This year, our Korean division could have even achieved the epic feat of sweeping all four semifinals! ]

[Samsung is the shitty team in the West! From inside to outside, from top to bottom, there is no place and no person that is not shitty! In recent years, there has been a year in the S game that did not give LPL a big victory. It's all their fault. This year, they gave WE the confidence to play first in the West! This damn Galaxy brand power bank! ]

[I said at the beginning of the year that this year is the most promising year! The four galactic battleships formed by our national strength are indeed extremely powerful! ]

[Wait! Wait! This year's T1 will definitely avenge their previous defeat.]

Of course, Korean IPs on Twitter have not been united since last year, and many hateful followers soon emerged.

The comment section instantly turned into a black and white arena.

[? I'm laughing. What do you think of the dominance of the new WE this year? We haven't played well in the Asian Games yet, right? ]

[Can a “crybaby” also touch the great KGOD? We KKK are invincible! ]

[Hot Knowledge: Of the four LCK teams this year, the total time that three teams lasted in WE's hands was no more than 46 minutes, while each game of the LCK Summer Finals lasted more than 45 minutes. Therefore, WE only needed one game of the LCK Summer Finals to send three teams into the Atlantic Ocean! ]

[Honestly, if LCK doesn’t win the championship again this year, they should just disband. They’ve forced four teams together to be like this, if they can’t do anything else, they can really disband.]

[I am a real DRX fan, may I ask, why is Krd so biased and doesn't give us a speedrun record? Oh, it turned out to be beaten in S10? It turns out that you are the original war criminals! ]

【Krd!! You! Are! My! God!】

The comment section soon became a melee, and the direction of the discussion instantly distorted.

[Shit! Korean traitors are really disgusting! CND, get out of Korea! ]

[Shit! Korean fans are really disgusting! BangND, get out of Korea! ]

Everyone laughed heartily while enjoying the kimchi feast.

"BangND is okay, but the guys all over the world are really good at making memes, but when they start to criticize, they don't even let themselves go!"

"Brother Cheng's Korean fans are a bit too pure. They feel like they are comparable to the fanatical fans when Faker came to China."

“All the people in the world are one family!”

The Korean commentators at the scene were also filled with joy. Looking at the good situation that was visible to the naked eye just from the signing positions, they almost wanted to open the champagne in advance!
"There is no doubt that we have almost secured two spots in the semi-finals in advance! And I believe that the T1 team will have a good performance against JDG. After all, the two core players in the JDG team are both Korean players, and they are very familiar with them in the Asian Games!" The big mouth Kim Dongjun opened his mouth wide.

Even the usually steady Pao Xiaodi said very pertinently: "That's right, and as long as T1 can get over the big hurdle of the semi-finals, perhaps the final result of this year has already been determined in advance!"

Park Pu brother finally said: "It seems that this year is really... Come on! The LCK region is determined to defend the honor of our region this year!"

Originally, Park Pu brother wanted to say "This year is the most hopeful year".

But after thinking about it, he immediately took back his words.

The three veteran commentators exchanged glances secretly, and quickly understood each other and laughed it off, then switched to an interview clip to help cover up the embarrassment.

After all, the past few years can really be called a cold winter for the entire LCK region.

They really want a victory!

The LCK live stream played an interview with Lee Sang-hyeok in real time, still conducted by sjokz.

"Hello, Faker! Congratulations on your 5-1 record in the group stage. What do you think of your opponents in the quarterfinals?"

Lee Sang-hyeok took the microphone with an unchanged expression: "The loss to G2 in the group stage helped us find many shortcomings. We still have a lot of room for adjustment and improvement, but T1 is confident about the quarterfinals."

“Oh~~~ I can really feel the strong confidence of Faker and this new T1 team!”

"If that's the case, please allow me to ask one more question."

sjokz is clearly looking for trouble and wants to stir up trouble.

“All European and American audiences are actually looking forward to something happening at this moment.”

"Just now, the division results have been released. Regarding WE, which is in the same upper half as T1, and your old rival Krd, do you and T1 have anything to say?"

"After all, we all know that WE is creating a winning streak this year. They seem to have the power to win. This scenario also seemed to have happened last year. Moreover, if Krd can still step onto the final stage this year..."

Li Xianghe, who originally had a calm expression.

As soon as he heard the name, his expression and emotions changed slightly, almost instantly and visibly.

He didn't even pay much attention to what was said next, and even shook his hands slightly unconsciously while speaking.

"Then was then, and the present is now."

"The LCK region is different this year, and so is our T1 team!"

In his last sentence, Lee Sang-hyeok raised his head and looked into the camera, as if he was concluding his speech, but it also seemed a bit like he was having a conversation across the air.

"Let's meet in the semi-finals."

This interview video quickly went viral back home.

The protesters suddenly reached a climax!
[OYO Oh Yo? Is Old Li anxious too? ]

[Sister-in-law is really good at talking. What did she mean by "this happened last year too, where she got right into my face and broke four pieces in one second!"

[Still not being honest? I think Lao Li is destined to spend his later years on the mountain, full of ominous things. How about dyeing your hair red again? ]

[This year, either a new Triple Crown winner is born, or the old Triple Crown winner falls! There can only be one true God! ]

[This is truly a "True God War"~]

……

Amid the heated discussions among the public, the major teams have also blocked themselves off from the outside world and started intensive preparations for the competition.

a.

The quarterfinal elimination stage of the 2022 World Finals is in full swing!
