Chapter 234: Capture Vietnam, Fxxk VN!

One thing to say.

This GAM team from the Vietnam Division has already played four group matches in this MSI.

Its performance is remarkable.

Except for the first game against TSM.

Three more games.

Although they lost, they still accomplished a lot of their own things.

It's eye-catching.

In the match against SKT, the difference in strength was really too big. SKT crushed them from start to finish, speeding through easily.

But the other two games were against Flash Wolves and G2.

GAM really gained an advantage in the early stages.

But as soon as the game reached the middle and late stages, the Vietnamese team's complete inability to operate became apparent.

This also led to them being defeated by Flash Wolves and G2 one after another, and they lost a good game!

After several group matches, GAM left two impressions on the audience.

One is that they are very good at playing early game.

The second is GAM's jungler Levi, who performed extremely well.

There are also many fans of LPL teams. After watching a few GAM games, they began to call on their home team to buy Levi for the summer split.

After all, there is Sofm Zhuyu who is also Vietnamese.

Many LPL viewers are very optimistic that Levi will definitely be able to perform well in the LPL.

Backstage.

LGD lounge.

There is still a short time before going on stage.

The LGD players and coaching staff are seriously discussing the draft and related tactics for the game against GAM later.

Although the entire LGD team did not think that they would lose to GAM.

But they can't help but not take it seriously.

After all, they just lost to SKT and then lost to a wild card team.

Then LGD will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame by the domestic audience.

Everyone present in the LGD lounge knows this very well.

In a sense, this is the group stage of GAM.

Compared with the group match against SKT yesterday, the psychological pressure faced by the entire LGD team was even greater.

Because in this game at this time, LGD cannot lose and cannot afford to lose.

Especially now that there are some anti-fans going around saying "LGD will be captured by Vietnam".

"Eimy, for this game, use a herbivorous tank to jungle!" Dgc said to Eimy.

Hearing this, Eimy immediately nodded twice, "Yeah, no problem!"

What if LGD had played GAM before playing SKT yesterday, and then head coach Dgc and Eimy made this request.

Eimy will most likely not agree.

Even if he agrees, he won't agree so simply.

It's much better to bargain with the coach for a few words.

Because in LGD's first three games at this MSI, Eimy played a carnivorous and output jungle hero.

And also won two MVPs.

Before playing SKT yesterday, Eimy was a bit shy.

As a wild card, if you let him play with meat and become a dog, he is really unwilling.

But in yesterday's game against SKT, after being severely beaten by Little Peanut.

Eimy is a little timid now.

After all, GAM jungler Levi looks very fierce and very difficult to mess with.

Just forget about being executed by Little Peanut.

No matter what, it’s still SKT-Peanut!

This would be a huge matchup gap if the Vietnamese team were to be beaten by the enemy jungler.

I can’t even imagine the consequences!

In view of this, Eimy also decisively gave in, accepted the coach's request to play hard, and passed the ball.

Then

The ball was passed to Zhou Dian.

In this kind of situation where victory is guaranteed and defeat is not allowed, Dgc usually uses one move——

Give the damn ball to the top laner!

Of course, Zhou Dian lived up to his expectations.

In the subsequent game against GAM, he took out top laner Kenan and directly shocked the Vietnamese team.

In addition to Zhou Dian, imp also performed well.

In just ten minutes, GAM's bottom tower was taken down purely by laning.

But this is not the first-blood tower in this game.

Because Zhou Dian's Kennen single-handedly pushed down GAM's top tower at eight minutes into the game and won the first blood tower of the game.

The upper and lower lanes gained a big advantage in the line-up.

Eimy plays a role for his teammates, while Wei Shen randomly brushes his troops in the middle.

In this game, LGD easily captured the Vietnamese.

And as LGD easily won GAM.

Before the game, the remarks that "LGD will be captured by Vietnam" were immediately liquidated.

When will foreign teams be able to win the LPL championship?

You people are simply ignorant and unreasonable!

After LGD's game against GAM, the first half of this MSI group stage, that is, the first five rounds of the group stage, was completed.

After five rounds of group matches, SKT won five consecutive victories and took the first place in the group.

LGD ranked second in the group with a record of 4 wins and 1 loss.

Ranked third in the group is the G2 team.

Ranking fourth in the group is Flash Wolves.

As for GAM and TSM, their current records are 1 win and 4 losses.

Due to the mutual record, GAM is currently 1-0TSM.

Therefore, relying on the relationship between victory and defeat, GAM is temporarily ranked ahead of TSM, ranking fifth in the group.

TSM can only finish at the bottom of the group!

Of course, there will be five rounds of sub-round competitions in the group stage, and the group rankings will definitely change by then.

Even TSM is currently at the bottom of the group.

The probability of qualifying from the group in the end is still very high.

After all, according to MSI's format.

A group of six teams will eventually qualify four teams.

Such a high rate of occurrence.

Without the final round of the group stage, it will be difficult to determine all qualifying places.

In addition to MSI's usual 6-to-4 rule in the group stage.

This year's MSI main event, in terms of competition format, has reached the knockout stage, and some adjustments have been made compared to last year.

The previous MSI knockout match.

The two semi-finals are the first place in the group against the fourth place in the group, and the second place in the group against the third place in the group.

So, last year, that is, in 201SI.

At that time, RNG was ranked first in the group.

Then in the semi-finals, they faced SKT, who was fourth in the group and narrowly advanced to the knockout round.

SKT was in very poor shape in the group stage.

When it came to the knockout rounds, I had adjusted my condition.

In the end, RNG easily defeated RNG three to one and advanced to the finals.

Generally speaking, in any competitive cup competition, the first place in the group will get some conveniences.

But RNG at MSI last year.

In a sense, it can be said that he is the first victim of the group.

Therefore, in this year's MSI, Riot Games officially changed the rules for the knockout rounds.

under new rules.

The team that advances first in the group can choose one of the two teams ranked third and fourth in the group as its opponent in the semi-finals.

As for the second place in the group, all they had to do was pick up the rest.

This new rule does have real benefits for the first team in the group.

After all, it does happen that the group ranking is lower but the hard power is stronger.

With this new rule, the team that tops the group doesn't have to worry about this problem.

You can take the initiative to pick the weak persimmons.

Of course, if you want to challenge yourself, you have to choose a more powerful team to play against.

For example, you said you just want to play SKT!

That's your freedom too!

However, in this world.

Probably not. When you can actively avoid SKT, you have to actively choose a team to play with SKT.

After the first half of the group stage.

Without any gap, the second half of the round-robin group stage continued.

MSI's schedule is indeed very tight.

Playing games every day for several days actually tests the physical strength of the players to a greater or lesser extent.

Under this intensive schedule.

Young players like Zhou Dian have a good daily routine, good eating habits, and are good at taking care of their bodies.

Those who reach the back must be the group in the best competitive condition.

Therefore, even in e-sports, you must have a good body!

The group stage starts in a round robin.

G2 had a devastating game from the beginning, easily crushing the Flash Wolves.

In the two group matches, G2 completed a double kill against the Flash Wolves.

Then, T1 also defeated GAM easily.

A massive brawl involving fifty heads.

In this game, Little Peanut once again proved his strength to the world.

In the past, Mantis Man Gun killed Levi in ​​various ways, and his performance was very outstanding.

This plate is a bit vulnerable in the hands of Little Peanut.

Little Peanut Blind Monk is amazing for 7 minutes.

It also set a record for the fastest super god in the League of Legends international competition.

And then.

The last game on the third day of the group stage-LGD vs. TSM.

In order to take care of the huge number of LPL viewers.

The second game of LGD's two daily group matches is scheduled at the last game of each match day.

Basically the time when the last group match starts every day.

It's roughly between 7 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. BJ time.

There are still many LPL viewers who can get up early to watch LGD games.

This game with TSM.

TSM's top laner, Hauntzer, chose top laner Galio.

Face this hero.

Zhou Dian naturally chose top laner VN without hesitation to teach him how to behave.

The results are also predictable.

TSM's top laner Galio was blown away by Zhou Dian's top laner VN!

Galio's final record stayed at 0-8-4.

He is also a successful super ghost!

And TSM’s top laner Hauntzer.

After playing a game, Zhou Dian was completely beaten to autistic state.

When shaking hands after the game, everyone else in TSM stood up and shook hands with the LGD players.

Hauntzer was still sitting in the gaming chair with blank eyes, and he hadn't even taken off the headphones on his head.

When Zhou Dian walked behind Hauntzer, he vaguely heard him saying:

"Fxxk VN! Fxxk ADC!"

It wasn't until Zhou Dian patted him that Hauntzer hurriedly took off his headphones, jumped up from his seat, and fist bumped with Zhou Dian.

After playing the game with TSM and receiving the post-match interview, the LGD players could not wait to pack up and board the bus back to the hotel.

Hungry!

LGD won both games on the third day of the group stage.

On the Chinese Internet related platform.

LGD's two victories today also diluted the many online condemnations of LGD after LGD lost to SKT yesterday.

Of course, it is inevitable that some fans will still pursue LGD.

Especially Zhou Dian.

After winning two group matches beautifully today, some fan groups that caught Zhou Dian.

Started to spray Zhou Dian "only bullying".

The unity of their caliber and the wide spread of their words make it difficult not to suspect that this is an organized professional behavior.

That is, the so-called water army!

Zhou Dian naturally doesn't care about this.

This level of water army is definitely not as good as the gossip of the masses.

As long as he can beat SKT.

The rumors spread by these water armies will be broken by themselves!

Of course, everything has its two sides.

If LGD is beaten by SKT again in the group stage of the second round,

then no matter how well Zhou Dian performs,

the label of "only bullying weak players" will still stick to Zhou Dian firmly.

In the final analysis, reputation is earned by yourself.

Everything depends on whether you have real skills!
