Chapter 437: Strong Enough, the Truth Is Just Nonsense!

"This BO5 is not even as exciting as watching the BO1 in the key round of the group stage."

"Samsung lost so naturally and so easily!"

The knockout round started at one o'clock in the afternoon local time. Song Yijin looked at the time and found that it was only early three o'clock, and the BO5 between EDG and Samsung was coming to an end.

EDG currently holds three match points, and in only 17 minutes of the ongoing third game, EDG has an extremely exaggerated 5.6k economic lead!

"Let it go, let it go, let it go!"

"You don't even dare to defend the second tower?"

"Are the extreme fans of EDG in China more terrifying?"

"Xiba——"

"Samsung, just wait to be liquidated after the game."

These words were somewhat awkward coming from Song Yijin's mouth, but the other IG players knew that the reason why the good-tempered Rooki was so angry was entirely because Samsung lowered the level of this knockout match.

"This is more like a game between a team that didn't make the playoffs and EDG!"

"Oh my god, it only took 19 minutes and the high ground in the middle was broken!"

"The big dragon hasn't even been refreshed yet."

Bao Lan was also staring blankly at the screen, and his big buck teeth were completely exposed to the air, like a stupid mole.

This season, although IG and EDG have launched a racing competition in the league.

In fact, the fastest time it took for the two teams to knock down each other's main base was faster than EDG's knockout of the three-star middle high defensive tower in this game.

But - this is the knockout stage of the World Championship!

There are mixed teams, and after going through the qualifying rounds and group stages, the teams that can enter the top eight will definitely pass the test in terms of their understanding of the version and the overall strength of the team.

In the third game, the lineup selected by EDG was "top laner Dao Mei, jungler Prince, mid laner Lissandra, bottom laner Kai'Sa + female tank".

Very conventional and classic.

Moreover, this lineup also has the disadvantage of having short hands overall, which makes it a bit difficult to push towers or pull towers in a group in the middle and late stages.

But the truth is so magical!

EDG used this lineup that focused on small team battles in the early stage to knock down Samsung's most important middle highland tower at 19 minutes and 12 seconds of game time!

"As long as one of the five of them resists a little bit, or thinks of launching a wave, EDG will not be able to push down the middle high tower so easily!"

Although Prince Ning was careless, he immediately saw the key to it, "Isn't it because we know we are going to lose, and no one dares to come out and take the blame?"

"If we lose so miserably, no one will dare to stand up."

Broiler also said: "If someone makes a mistake at this time and is caught by the commentator, then whether he can play in the game next year is still a question."

In the LCK division, after losing to EDG in last year's World Championship, the audience began to like to share the blame among the players.

This kind of division of pots is based on key team battles, key kills, which player operates or behaves abstractly and commits crimes.

The audience will not take into account factors on the field, such as whether it is directed by a certain player, or the coaching staff selects a hero during the BP stage, and the sacrifice position is chosen for the player who takes the blame.

Therefore, once it is identified as a pot, public opinion from the outside world will instantly begin to criticize it like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

After all, players who can't really understand the game or cloud players still account for the majority of the audience.

Even many viewers who play games will have misunderstandings due to their poor understanding and herd mentality.

This directly leads to the fact that not only in competitions within the division, the LCK division teams play quite conservatively.

Most players are afraid of making mistakes.

After all, most of the club's management only know a little bit about the game, and only a few can truly understand the game. In other words, the management may be unprofessional.

When they sign players, in many cases they do so based on outside public opinion.

Therefore, once public opinion explodes, the players may retire on the spot and become pathetic little eggs that no one wants.

Samsung's loss to EDG last year was also an explosion of public opinion. However, as the No. 3 seed, Samsung reached the finals of the World Championship. However, the Dragon Ball team that was the favorite to win the championship was eliminated in the quarterfinals, and SKT was decapitated in the top four.

Therefore, although several Samsung players lost the game, their values ​​increased significantly.

Of course, since several players such as Ruler were personally discovered by the coaches of the Samsung team, the contracts they signed are relatively long and will not end until the end of the year. The contract money in hand this year has not actually been mentioned.

After finally building up his worth, he reached the knockout round as the No. 3 seed this season. If this disastrous defeat directly leads to a reduction in the contract amount next season, or no team wants it, then it will be too much of a loss.

Therefore, when the five players of the Samsung team were defeated by the EDG team 2:0, in the third game, they all adhered to the principle that as long as I do nothing, I will not make mistakes, so as to avoid becoming the biggest loser of the game to Samsung. criminal.

On the court, Samsung's defeat is determined!

But outside the arena, the Bangzi audience was not as quiet as when the Samsung team lost in the first two games. Instead, they were all shouting loudly.

There are many students here who have gone to study in the Great Cold Underworld. Although the sticks speak very fast, they can still catch other words from the chirping Smecta voice:

"Cowardly, so cowardly! It makes me sick."

"No? You can have sex with me, An Bixin, what did you hit?"

"Holy crap! These five dogs from Samsung must be Akita dogs sent from next door!"

"Shame! Total pizza—"

"Axiba, Xiba cuvee, Xiba ruler, why don't you two cuddle?"

If barking is useful, Uzi has won many world championships.

The loud and fierce curses can even pass through the players' headphones, and even the white noise cannot completely eliminate them.

Everyone in Sanxing vaguely knew why, but they didn't dare to think about it.

The most important thing is the situation on the field at this moment. For Samsung, it can only be described as powerless.

If they had fought to the death 5 minutes or earlier, the probability of winning the game might have increased to 46, but now, the situation is completely zero to ten!

As long as the EDG team plays steadily and advances slowly, even if An Bixin goes to the training room to pick up his baseball bat and stand behind the ruler, urging him to hit nine, there is absolutely no way to turn the tide of the game!

"22 minutes and 00 seconds exactly!"

"Let us congratulate the EDG team, which swept last year's global finals runner-up Samsung team with a score of 3:0 and advanced to the semi-finals!"

Wawa and Miller's voices were so loud that the audience couldn't tell whether Guan Zeyuan was congratulating him or not.

The cheers of the fans at the scene were like a tropical storm, shaking the eardrums of countless viewers through the live broadcast room!

"Two hours and 21 minutes is too fast."

Kasa looked at the time on his phone and was shocked!

You know, these two hours and 21 minutes include the time for players to enter, two intermissions and three banpicks!

If you exclude the time other than the game, the Bo5 match between EDG and Samsung probably only took about an hour and 15 minutes!

In other words, the average length of the three games is 25 minutes!

"Team Samsung is too vulnerable."

"If it were replaced by our RNG, it would probably take about the same amount of time."

Zhi Zhi felt whether he had eaten fried chicken or fried chicken until his belly was full, and muttered: "It's a pity that we beat Samsung in the group stage."

"However, G2 and Samsung teams are about the same strength. I feel that we can end the game in two and a half hours at most."

"Us? Substitute, don't scream." Yan Junze caught the key words in the gesture and shouted arrogantly:

"I asked you to fight in the group stage because we were afraid that if we won the championship this year, you wouldn't be able to get the championship skin!"

"You really take yourself seriously."

attitude:?

Yan Junze was very puzzled by Yan Junze's way of speaking and his posture, which seemed to have been filled with gunpowder.

Although he usually teases each other when there is nothing wrong, but today when watching the game, he kept eating and didn't talk much at all.

What happened to this guy Laitemi?

Menopause has arrived?

His posture was a little aggrieved. After thinking for a while, he said viciously: "Be careful, it will be fun if you can't beat G2 later."

"Losing to G2? Are you kidding me?"

Yan Junze: "G2 is the weakest among the top eight, no, it's the second weakest!"

"The weakest one is Samsung."

"If we lose to G2, or if I am killed once by the opponent online, I, Yan Junze, will retire on the spot!"

The others in RNG did not show too much surprise after hearing Laitemi swear.

This was not mainly because Yan Junze's swearing was like farting. The most important thing was that they heard the name of the team G2.

Lose EDG, normal.

Losing to IG is also possible. After all, the two teams played against each other in the spring and summer playoffs this year. They all played 5 games, and RNG had a more difficult time winning the game.

Losing to KT is also more likely.

After all, this team integrates Korean-style operations with small team battles in the early stages of the LPL competition very well, and has its own rhythm.

But losing to G2 is absolutely impossible!

…

"I kind of pity them."

In the EDG lounge, Old Thief Sima suddenly said in a weak voice: "Ruler seemed to be crying just now."

"It was even sadder than his expression at the Asian Games award ceremony."

As an exhibition event of League of Legends at the Asian Games, the award ceremony is still different from normal e-sports events.

At the award ceremony after the game, Jakarta officials still adopted the traditional method of having the three teams of champion, runner-up, and third place receive their awards at the same time, and then play and sing the national anthem of the champion team.

Although there was no live broadcast in China at the time, and after the game, Dahan Mingguo bought the copyright of the Asian Games Hero Event video.

However, there are still many netizens who recorded the screen and took screenshots of the ruler standing next to Lee Sang Hyuk, secretly dropping the little pearl, feeling aggrieved and not daring to say a word.

As the barista of the original black WE bar, Sima Laothi is naturally an old user of Tieba.

When he saw the post with this picture on the anti-stress bar, he quietly changed his account and made a wave of critical comments:

——I don’t know how much Faker wanted to kill the ruler at that time!

"After all, this is e-sports, only winning or losing."

"Ruler is already the most respectable guy on the other side today."

The factory director said: "I didn't expect it to be so easy."

For the EDG players, this game is no different from playing against a human machine.

The factory director was also very emotional.

Last year, the Samsung team caused them a lot of trouble, but they didn't expect that time has changed and last year's team, which was meticulous and well-organized, would cause such a big mess in the knockout rounds.

"Can they walk out of the venue?"

"I just looked at the Bangzi fans in the audience, and they all seemed to want to eat people."

Mala Xiangguo pursed his lips, looking like he was still frightened.

To be honest, he has seen a lot of crazy female fans in the LPL. For example, after Li Rucan was put on the bench, after the game in EDG was over and he was about to take the bus back to the club, those extreme female fans of Li Rucan actually raised their eyebrows. He held up a banner and asked the factory director to dismiss get out of class.

It's kind of funny.

However, the menacing XMM, coupled with their high-pitched voices, which are relatively common among women, is indeed quite scary.

"I feel a little hung up."

"The top 16 of the Afs left, and they were trashed on the Internet."

"Although Samsung advanced to the knockout rounds, its loss was much more embarrassing than AFS."

The fair and fair girl's tone and expression at the moment had a hint of evil.

The other EDG players glanced at him and couldn't help but feel a little chill on their backs.

White lotus.

There's always a little bit of evil.

Obviously they were eliminated 3-0, but you still have a share of "credit"!

"Early death and early rebirth."

"As long as we don't win the championship in the World Championship, everything will be the same."

"Whether you leave in the top 8 of the top 16 or in the top 4, the biggest difference is whether you leave early or leave late."

"Of course, if any team in Europe and the United States can reach the semi-finals this year, they will be happy for a while."

The director rubbed his eyes and said, "Those of you who want to be interviewed, get out quickly."

"Look at the staff, they are all coming to the door of the lounge."

Although Han Quan likes to make stinky things, the staff are still very qualified.

Seeing everyone in EDG celebrating, they didn't directly interrupt.

After all, the highlights of this BO5 are still being played in the official live broadcast room at this moment.

As for the interview seats, you can reach it in a few seconds by turning right when you go out of the lounge.

"Director, please give me some ideas."

"I also want to say some fucking trash talk."

Mala Xiangguo has to accept interviews in Chinese, so it is understandable to refine and prepare the plan.

In addition to him, Hae Sung Min and Kang Joon are also going to be interviewed.

Kang Joon is English-speaking, and Hae Sung-min is Korean.

Obviously, this has something to do with the language the players speak.

"Do you still need to teach me what you said?"

"As long as you are strong enough."

"Confident enough!"

The director said very calmly: "If you state the facts to the audience, it is the best trash talk."

"There's no need to do those silly things."

Well, just like you're already looking at MSI's opponents.

Mala Xiangguo secretly cursed: "Then can I say that we are already studying the opponents in the semi-finals?"
