Chapter 129: Is this the end of Head An?(2/3)
Some people are optimistic about EDG, but not to mention anything else, this second seed is the most direct manifestation of its strength.
Then some people are optimistic about WE because WE's grouping is miserable, but such WE defeated the strong rivals G2 and Samsung, and finally qualified for the first place in the group.
This shows that WE is in good condition now.
In addition, the two teams have a lot of fans, so the scene has become entangled, and there is a way to watch the LPL playoffs.
On this day, RNG also temporarily put down the training at hand and chose to watch the two brother teams silently.
Nothing else, it's just that this scene is really heartbreaking.
This year's LPL is the best year, and there are no disputes between teams, players and fans are united.
At the same time, it is precisely because of the mutual training between each team that the three LPL teams have maintained a very hot feel.
But now, they will be tragic.
They are only stronger than last year.
On the other hand, EDG is difficult to achieve this.
What is EDG this year?
It was a team of a new generation of young people, young and energetic.
But don’t forget that this year’s EDG inherits its former glory more, and it is really not as powerful as it was when it was last year’s peak.
Or, the former EDG.
The EDG, who was dominant in the mid-season game during the S5 period, couldn't come back after all.
For example, when RNG used to play EDG, she definitely had to play BO5, but now EDG is being beaten up.
This kind of strength gap that others can't see but there is real existence.
Without Fat General and Mr. Dai, the upper limit of EDG is now very high and the lower limit is also very low.
Then there is no reason not to give WE confidence in such a version that is not so prominent in laning requirements and focuses on operations.
Therefore, according to Lin Xiu's prediction, WE can be said to have a high winning rate.
"Of course, this is just a guess."
After saying that, Lin Xiu touched her nose: "If it is in the end, no one knows this."
Just kidding, if I say something wrong, you have to talk about me.
If I'm right, I'll continue to be superstitious...
Anyway, being a human being is very difficult...
However, these two teams are probably going to play BO5 in a 10-point manner.
After all, these two teams still have a good understanding of each other.
Then, among the speculations of the crowd, and the entanglements on the scene...
This long-awaited LPL civil war officially began.
For the LPL, including the rest of the competition, this game is of great significance, because the winner will undoubtedly enter the semi-finals.
Unlike RNG's playing against Samsung, the almost nemesis-like style of playing.
It can be imagined that the collision between these two teams will inevitably bring out many LPL characteristics.
Then this allows everyone in LCK to better face the LPL team in the semi-finals.
As for the competition process, it was quite tragic...
In the first game, EDG focused on mid-jung and won strongly.
In the second game, WE crazy 4 packs 2, winning one game back.
In the third game, EDG also made 4 packs and 2, focusing on the bottom lane and winning two match points.
In the fourth game, WE had a disadvantage in the early stage, but struggled to support it, and finally found a chance to turn the table in 50 minutes to tie the score.
The fifth game, which is the final decisive game. WE got the team battle lineup that he was best at. With a small disadvantage in the first 30 minutes, two team battles decided to win the game.
Therefore, the final result of WE's match against EDG was 3 to 2.
WE wins...
They advanced to the semi-finals.
It is impossible to describe the mood of WE fans at that moment.
Many of them may not have thought that WE can get to this point.
Because to be honest, everyone's expectation for WE is to reach the quarterfinals, so it's not embarrassing no matter how you say it.
But they actually defeated the well-deserved No. 2 seed of LPL, EDG??
Anyway, whether you believe it or not, that's the truth.
Then all the major forums were caught in heated discussions.
Fortunately, the fans of both sides and the teams of both sides are more rational.
Although there are regrets,
At the same time, in RNG's training base, everyone looked at Lin Xiu with a strange look on their faces...
"Ahem, see, this is called vision..."
Lin Xiu glanced at everyone without any trace: "Of course, I admit that I have the gambling element..."
bet??
God tm's bet...
"It's really true, I'm not bad at all?"
WE wins...
Full BO5...
Sure enough, the man in front of him was so terrible...
Everyone thought, before the next game, should Lin Xiu cheer for RNG for half an hour.
With the addition of various metaphysics, isn’t RNG invincible?
Of course, this kind of thing is just thinking about it. It is impossible for everyone to let Lin Xiu, the dog, cheer up on the side.
Because once this RNG is missing Lin Xiu, it always feels like something very important is missing.
"Then the next one is a pretty exciting semi-final."
Regardless of the loss and frustration of EDG and the enthusiasm that WE has not yet dissipated, everyone knows that this quarter-finals are actually just a stepping stone.
What follows is the more exciting and exciting existence.
That is, the semi-finals.
There is no need to draw lots in the semi-finals. The players on both sides mainly depend on their respective semi-districts.
That is, Group A vs. Group B, Group C vs. Group D.
Then in such a grouping situation, LPL's opponents have been confirmed.
The first game.
RNG vs. Dragon Ball.
The second game.
SKT vs WE.
It can be said that looking at this group, the mood of the audience around the world is hard to describe.
For LPL...
"This is probably the best time we have achieved on paper since S3."
In the semi-finals, there were actually two places in the LPL.
You should know that in the past, there were basically LCK battles, and even if LPL fights in, they are basically the only ones.
Now, have the times changed?
Since LCK dominates the world, we will eventually be in the same position as the two major competition areas of LCK and LPL.
For the upcoming semifinals, I don’t know what the LCS and EU audience feel at this moment.
As for the semi-finals, the location is also very interesting.
Everyone, we've returned to our hometown.
The Magic City will be the semi-finals venue.
It is a very good thing for LPL audiences and LPL players, because it is not just home games, but also a key hometown game.
Such a sense of familiarity will bring great comfort to the contestants.
To be continued...
