Chapter 120 KT Stops in the Round of 16, Draw for the Quarterfinals
Chapter 120 - KT stopped in the top 16, the quarterfinals were drawn
When returning to the lounge, all the OG members stood in the corridor and cheered.
Although Yuan Shen's Noxus got a pentakill over their heads, it is the nature of Europeans and Americans to admire the strong.
My sister-in-law even exchanged team uniforms with Yuan Shen and took a group photo.
"Leave it to us, I will not let you down for the opportunity to play for OG."
As the first generation of the King of Magic, Xpeke is not the first time to play in the world championship.
He was there in S1.
"Come on! You will win!"
Yuan Shen didn't say much, just patted my sister-in-law on the shoulder.
"Come on, Ssumday, I've seen it, he's not as good as you."
Encouraged by Yuan Shen, my sister-in-law's whole momentum changed.
Yuan Shen didn't think there was anything wrong with KT's experience.
They just finished a game normally, and there was no private transaction.
As for whether KT can enter the quarterfinals, that's their business.
As long as they beat OG in the extra game, they can still enter.
The opportunity is in your own hands. If you are useless when given the opportunity, you can't blame anyone.
As for mentality, that is even more nonsense.
Can you blame IG for a bad mentality?
Blame IG for hitting them too hard?
Isn't that funny?
As a professional player, what he wants is to win every game.
That's enough.
KT lost the extra game without a doubt.
Facing OG's defense, they seemed extremely impatient. Score also changed his previous style and tried to find opportunities to start the rhythm several times, but was played by OG.
Anxious, very anxious.
In the 35-minute game, KT became more and more anxious, and finally OG flattened the base.
So far, the group stage officially ended, and the teams that appeared in Group D were IG and OG.
And the first team in the history of the LCK division to stop in the top 16 of the world championship.
was born.
The previous team was the SSO team in S3.
But it was still OGN at that time, not LCK.
At that time, SSO had Looper, Dandy, Dade, Imp, and Mata.
But they just stopped in the round of 16.
There is no place to complain.
"IG won all the games and advanced to the quarterfinals, KT lost regretfully!"
"KT lost to OG, the first generation of the King of Magic is in the quarterfinals again!"
"Three seats in the quarterfinals, who is the first division?"
"Four Chinese, two Koreans, and two Europeans, the first division deserves the title!"
The public opinion on the Internet changes every day.
But today, there is no doubt that there is only one.
IG has entered the quarterfinals again.
Why say again?
Because the last time IG entered the world championship was S2.
In that world championship, IG qualified as the second in the group and lost to M5 0-2.
And this time, IG qualified as the first in the group and entered the quarterfinals again.
The top four?
Or, one step further...
Runner-up?
But since we have already entered the finals, why not take another step?
The group stage is over, followed by the draw ceremony.
There will be no difference in the quarterfinals.
No matter what seed you are, you will be treated equally in the quarterfinals.
Of course, the team that advances as the first in the group will bump into the second in the group.
This is also a little advantage.
Moreover, teams in the same group will not be divided into the same half zone, and the only way to meet again is in the finals.
Of course, the probability of this is almost zero.
(Currently, only IG and FNC met in the finals of S8)
Looking at the team names on the big screen, Yuan Shen couldn't help but clench his fists.
Group A: FW, KOO
Group B: LGD, FNC
Group C, SKT, EDG
Group D, IG, OG.
Except that OG will avoid the half zone, they will only have three opponents in the first round, namely FNC, EDG, and KOO.
Of these three teams, EDG is the easiest to play against. They are all from the same division and know each other well. When they were training together before, it was just like a father beating his son.
I can only say that the current version is really suitable for IG.
If it is the version of the regular season, IG may not be able to beat EDG.
As for FNC and KOO, Yuan Shen thinks FNC is easier to beat.
After all, Huni is also a CJB in his eyes.
Without Zzitai as a power bank for him, Huni is not very famous now.
Although KOO lost to FW, the Korean team's BO5 strength is still quite strong.
As for the fight between the No. 1 seeds, Yuan Shen thinks that as long as they don't meet SKT in advance and let them enter the finals, they will have a chance.
IG needs too much time.
SKT itself has a high starting point, and further improvement is just so-so.
On the contrary, these people from IG, whether it is Shekeke or Ashui, have made great progress during this period.
The World Championship, especially the first time to participate in the World Championship, is a very rare experience for every player.
What's more, Kakao and Rookie, including him, are also participating in the World Championship for the first time.
Two people from IG who participated in the World Championship, one is Zzitai and the other is KID, are now watching the game from the bench, looking at the water dispenser.
Five new people, the first experience of the World Championship, it is reasonable that their strength improves faster.
Of course, SKT also has three such people.
"How are you? Are you nervous?"
He came closer and took a deep breath.
"I'm not nervous. You should be the one who is nervous. It's your second time coming to the top eight stage and you don't have anything to say?"
"screw you!"
Zhi Zhi rolled his eyes. It was an eternal pain in his heart that he stopped in the top eight in S2.
I thought it was the beginning, but it turned out to be the peak.
Now he's on the top eight stage again, but he's not even a mid laner anymore.
I also lost my starting position...
"Whatever, our goal is to win the championship, it doesn't matter who we beat?"
Rookie is very open-minded.
Throughout the group stage, the only opponent he could take seriously was SKT.
He talked to Pawn and the information he got was incomprehensible.
EDG simply couldn't force SKT's ultimate strength, nor could they play their cards.
One Ryze and one Swordswoman were enough to make them miserable.
It’s hard to beat the blue side, let alone the red side.
Imp doesn't know Tetsuo, so even the blue side won't dare to release it easily.
However, they are already preparing a new strategy. If it works, it will give them an advantage on the red side.
The specific Pawn didn't say, and Rookie didn't ask.
Everyone knows it.
At this point, the two teams are considered rivals.
In the quarter-finals, it doesn't matter whether you are in the same division or not, you should be your opponent and you will be your opponent. You can't hide.
EDG and them are even more likely to collide in the first round.
On the big screen, the host drew SKT with the first draw.
In the second draw, IG was drawn.
Yuan Shen's face darkened.
This host is probably sick!
Will their top four meet SKT? ?
The audience at the scene was instantly in an uproar.
However, the IG team logo on the screen slid directly to the right.
"call……"
Yuan Shen breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that if they wanted to meet SKT, they could only meet in the finals.
The host's third draw was FW.
SKT vs. Flash Wolves?
Yuan Shen looked a little strange.
Isn’t that a guarantee of entering the finals?
If they are ranked second in the group, it seems they won't be able to cause any trouble to SKT.
However, it is estimated that FW can only reach the top eight.
There is no need to draw the fourth draw, it can only be LGD.
IG and LGD were assigned to the same half zone.
"Come on, let's make it to the finals!"
Wei Shen looked at Yuan Shen.
No matter who his opponent is, his self-confidence is extremely strong now!
If you meet Yuan Shen, you may have some trouble.
But, it will win!
"come on!!"
Rookie is also very happy.
For the semi-finals, it would be great to play LGD.
