Esports managers start with relegation

Chapter 183 - Only four of the five competition areas?

If the three representative teams of the LPL are new teams, then the LCK is the old players who are too old to be old.

T1, the founder of the double crown dynasty, once knelt down five times in a row after the intercontinental competition, even to the point of worrying about the place in the playoffs.

At this time of crisis, the T1 boss recalled Bengi, bought top laner Khan from LZ, and stuffed Blank and Huni into the drinking fountain.

The performance of the new generation of T1 was beyond everyone's expectations. The whole team seemed to be a natural one. It perfectly implemented Coach Koma's tactical arrangement and won consecutive victories in the playoffs. They defeated KT 3:2 and won the summer championship.

And KT still maintains the original starting five tigers, Semb and Pinat's Ueno rhythm takes off, and few people can resist KT's rhythm.

The S4 champion team DWG lost to SSG in the bubbling match. General Pang's back injury recurred and he played a game and replaced it as a substitute mid laner.

Even with Loper, Mata, Mr. Dai, Dandy and other star players, DWG still lost under the indiscriminate bombardment of SSG.

The bloody battle between the three teams of the LCK and the LPL in the intercontinental competition is still vivid. The BO1 game was so bloody, so what will the BO5 game be like...

Since LCS.EU changed its name to LEC independently, it has completely separated you and me from LCS.NA. Although it is nicknamed Euro-American Lobby by East Asian audiences, EU>NA or NA>EU has always been a topic of constant debate.

The boss of G2 went off in person on Twitter, vowing that Yixue MSI was humiliated by KG3:0, while FNC's ADC Rekkles expressed his expectation for playing against RYL's Jiang Zhenhou again.

Also admiring Jiang Zhenhou is North American senior brother Doblelift, who is a living fossil-level troll and is the number one Jiang Chuan.

Back in S3, it was said that the ADCs in the entire S game, except for him, were rubbish, but in the group stage, Jiang Zhenhou, who had just debuted, beat his head on the head.

At the beginning, he fell into self-doubt for a while, but when Jiang Zhenhou beat almost all the ADCs, the big brother came back to life again, because compared to the performance of other ADCs, he is still relatively good.

Compared with KG and IG, in fact, the audience of LPL in this World Championship is still RYL, not only because they are old and experienced.

More importantly, RYL is an all-Chinese class.

It's ridiculous to say that it is so precious and rare to be able to form an "all-China class" lineup for such a huge national server, dozens of teams, and tens of millions of League of Legends players.

Stronger than EW, GED, even KG and IG have more or less Korean aid.And RYL, a team composed entirely of professional e-sports players in the national server, is so commendable.

Of course, from a certain point of view, it is not that important to really verify whether a team is of pure blood, whether it is an all-Chinese class, and whether it has Korean aid.

For example, in sports like football and basketball, don't there be players from all ethnic groups and countries?

E-sports is the same, everything should be considered for the maximum benefit of the team.

But emotionally, it doesn't seem to be the case.

When all the big teams went to introduce Korean players, the boss of RYL publicly announced: "We are determined not to use Korean players. Our team performance can be poor, but we firmly believe that the players in the national server will not be worse than anyone else.

The all-China class is the foundation of RYL and the bottom line we stick to!
We are an LPL team, and our players will always be from our own country! "

Even in S5, GED won the spring championship and MSI championship, DLG with inp and brother A won the summer championship, RYL missed the world championship, Jiang Zhenhou left GOM...

Even so, RYL has not changed his original intention.

The RYL in this world did not introduce the Korean holy monks Insek and Zero, and truly achieved a completely all-Chinese class from beginning to end, sticking to the bottom line.

Some people say RYL is stupid.

Some people say that RYL is selling feelings.

But at all times, all major teams have respect for RYL. Maybe the company behind RYL is a real national company, or it may be a state-owned enterprise, or it may be that the big boss has a pure heart.

E-sports, naturally the strongest is king.

But there is a more important thing, and that is persistence.

S7, this is the fourth time for RYL to enter the World Championship since its establishment. The experience of two runner-ups and one top eight in the past did not make RYL and their fans lose confidence. With great encouragement and expectations.

Maybe, this is their last year...

S7世界赛的开幕式定在了9月21日，来自五大赛区的15支战队再加上8支外卡战队全部亮相，一共23支战队共同角逐英雄联盟的最高荣誉。

Outside the venues of Jiangcheng Sports Center, various decorations have already made the atmosphere of the World Championship very strong.

Since it is in China, the official also chose more traditional Chinese elements in the choice of decoration.

On the periphery of the venue, the four-meter-high Baron Nash statue stands on the left side, presenting the largest wild monster in Summoner's Canyon in front of the audience, and taking a group photo with a large 3D group of heroes.

The photo area also carefully selected Guanghan fairy Chang'e, bunny Teemo, and dragon Lie Yanjinx. Of course, it is not just a portrait, but many decorations are used beside the portrait to make the heroes more realistic.

On the first day of the play-in competition, IG won two games in a row and won a good start in the LPL division.

In the first game against the LYN team from Mexico, LYN selected the jungler Li Qing.

At the beginning of the game, IG used the pawn line to suppress LYN at the beginning, and MLXG caught it many times, allowing Rookie's Syndra to take off directly.

In the mid-term, through the Xiaolongkeng team battle, he first won the first blood of the blind monk. In the mid-term team battle, Rookie Syndra had key control to the opponent's front row many times, and relied on the team battle to make the economic snowball bigger and bigger.

In 23 minutes, after IG got the big dragon by virtue of the TP difference, the output ability of the lineup was highlighted, but LYN was unable to start the battle.

In the end, Ah Shui Kasha exploded and hurt LYN, and finally IG won the first victory in the LPL division.

The second game was against the GMB team from the LCL division. GMB adopted the jungler Kayn's strategy of invading the jungle at the beginning and gained a great advantage.

But in the middle lane, MLXG's unreasonable and frequent Gank took down Jess many times, and GMB's bottom lane was also killed by Ah Shui.

GMB's mid-term handling was too rough, and MLXG made a few excellent waves of Gank to lead the situation by a large margin.

Although the follow-up GMB decided to decisively win the big dragon in the first wave of big dragon battles, but IG launched a "military training" Gank against the big bug. GMB had to open the dragon again after the second wave of big dragons were refreshed. Snatch the big dragon and end the game in one wave.

"This kind of competition is like frying fish. If IG loses, I will stand on my head and cheat!"

Guan Zeyuan followed the IG game all the way, and posted his views on Weibo, but was rushed to the point of uninstalling Weibo by the entire LPL audience.

"This Guan Zeyuan is adding to the chaos. Yijin will play hard tomorrow and strive for the first place in the group."

Lu Tian touched Rookie's head and continued to look at his Rank.

Winning the first place in the group in the first round of the play-in competition can directly enter the group stage without the need for the second round.

The top four teams will directly advance to the group stage, while the second place in the remaining four groups will need to compete for the only remaining spot.

The next day, IG played against LYN again. LYN used EZ jungler in the game, but after the game started, he was overwhelmed by MLXG's anti-wilder.

Rookie's Galio followed MLXG to continuously invade the LYN wild area. EZ was killed twice in a row and fell into a huge disadvantage in the wild area. Several times EZ's active Gank also ended in failure.

In the early 20 minutes, IG directly started to fight the dragon. In the mid-to-late team battle, the team opening system led by Gem Dashu made great achievements. LYN's Luo was also used by Baolan to perfect the counter. IG finally won and secured the first place in the group .

In the last game, the IG and GMB teams offered a "Rank" lineup. The IG team took out the enchantress male gun Nakano and AD Delevingne.

GMB won the mid laner Yasuo and the support Nunu. Not long after the start of the game, GMB fell into a disadvantage again. IG quickly established an advantage by virtue of Nosuke's several waves of Gank.

Afterwards, the two sides fought all over the court, from the top lane to the bottom lane, from the lane to the jungle, all kinds of dazzling single kill operations.

The IG team slaughtered the field, MLXG played a superb record, and Ashui Delevingne won the MVP with a 9-1-7 record. In the end, the IG team defeated GMB with a disparity of 38:9 and won four consecutive victories.

In Group B, C9 of North American Light won four games in a row to determine the first place in the group, SPY in Group C, and MSF in Group D successfully advanced.

In the second round of the competition, LMS-JT, which is also one of the five major regions, was bullied by the remaining teams in turn, 0-3 and lost the qualification for promotion. In the end, IMT won the last place for promotion.

So far, all 12 teams have qualified for the group stage. In the sports center in Jiangcheng, veteran mid laner Wuzhou and Boss Zhu personally drew lots for the 12 teams.

The final grouping is:
Group A: KG AHQ C9 SPY
Group B: T1 MSF FW FNC
Group C: G2 SSG RYL TL
Group D: KT IMT TSM IG
When the results of the lottery came out, Lu Tian frowned. Although KG's Group A were all teams from the five major regions, they had two third seeds and Wanwan's second seed. In the case of not being able to play, it is almost KG teaching the last place in the other three divisions...

The most important thing in Group B is the qualifying battle between FNC and FW. However, after FW was poached from KaSa and Steak, it is difficult for the remaining teams to compete with other strong teams in the world.

The FW that brings together the most promising rookies in LMS is unique, and it may be difficult to reproduce in the future.

The strength of group C is the closest group, and the three teams of G2, SSG, and RYL are the most eye-catching when only two teams can qualify.

In comparison, Group D has the clearest qualifying situation. The only difference is who will qualify as the No. [-] seed between KT and IG.

When the grouping was confirmed, it instantly spread throughout the world and aroused strong repercussions in all competition areas.

Compared with other competition areas, the netizens in Wanwan are the most optimistic. Jay Chou just finished singing at the opening ceremony, and his JT team was eliminated and returned home. Maybe this is a gain and a loss!
