Chapter 653 Reaching the Quarterfinals Is Considered a Success

(There was an error in the previous chapter. Suning was the No. 1 seed. It has been corrected.)

In a relaxed atmosphere, the draw ceremony for the knockout rounds is about to begin.

Host Yu Shuang began to introduce the lottery rules.

In previous years, when the knockout rounds were drawn, a representative player from each team would be present to shake hands with the drawn opponent players and declare war.

But this year due to the epidemic, this link has been omitted.

The barrage audience was very sorry.

I really want to see the reaction of the opponent who drew KT. At 7, Major Leng gave three stars to Longzhu. At that time, his withered expression made him want to cry without tears but forced himself to laugh. It was really effective in the show.

Pantro: "Come on, come on! It's about to start. Let's guess who our opponent is. If you guess wrong, we'll treat you to supper. I guess FNC."

Bono: "I just said FNC."

Ai Ming: "I choose G2."

Lin Cheng: "Then I will choose TES. I think the opponent will definitely be an LPL team."

Tu private: "None of you choose JDG? Then I will choose JDG."

Everyone looked at the Tu private as if they were a fool.

In the knockout stage, the principle of avoiding the same division will no longer apply, but two teams in the same group will follow the principle of avoiding the half zone.

In other words, KT will definitely not draw JD.com in the same group.

Tu private has already lost before the drawing of lots has started.

All the fools tacitly understood each other and did not remind Tusi.

The barrage is also very lively.

"Haha! Tu private is so stupid. He guessed seven on a six-sided die."

"Why don't you remind me? Do you have such a tacit understanding of cheating people?"

"It seems like these guys cheated their teammates a lot."

"Come on, come on! The purchase is gone, KT Online Casino is open."

"I'll beat Taobao. If I lose, go to sleep."

"I bet on G2 and bet all my homework and test papers."

"FNC, if you lose, stop masturbating for a week."

"Tobo, canned herring."

"I beat JD.com. If I lose, Brother Chengzi will never win."

·····

The teammates all placed their bets, and Malrang, who was huddled in the corner playing with his mobile phone, came over and said, "I also choose FNC."

The substitute player KT brought in this World Championship was the jungler Malrang, and he had already played against PSG in the second round of the group stage.

Hmm~ It’s a blatant skin game, and the opponent can’t do anything about it even if he knows it.

In that game, Malrang also selected Lee Sin, who is rarely used in the current version of the game. According to him, Lee Sin's skin is the best-selling, and when KT wins the championship, everyone will share more prize money.

Lin Cheng didn't expect that his silent teammate was actually a financial master.

Malrang's jungle style is radical. Although compared to Bono, he can play jungle core such as male gun, but KT's lineup that has been running in for a year has no ups and downs in performance. Kang Dongxun will naturally not make rash changes.

Not surprisingly, it will be difficult for Malrang to play again after the group stage.

"Why do so many people choose FNC?"

Lin Cheng looked confident: "I'm telling you, it's definitely not FNC. Generally, this kind of draw is done behind closed doors. It's most likely that we will play Tao Bo. The collision of the champions of the two divisions is more interesting."

Bono complained: "Where did you get so many dramas? And you still operate in secret."

Lin Cheng was dissatisfied: "UEFA often does this! I don't believe Riot is White Lotus. They must also consider the ratings."

Bono retorted: "Can football be the same? It's just to sell tickets! A football ticket is worth billions of won in revenue, and e-sports audiences don't care whether you have a strong dialogue."

"Don't believe it! The ratings of online competitions still have a great impact on Riot's brand value."

Lin Cheng patted Malrang next to him, "Jin Gensheng, do you think my point of view makes sense?"

Malrang glanced at Lin Cheng, "My name is Jin Gencheng."

"Oh? That's right... Oh yo yo! My, my, my! I was wrong, how could I call you by the wrong name? It's so weird, hahaha!"

Lin Cheng smiled awkwardly. He was obviously a very familiar person, but sometimes he would call someone by the wrong name out of nowhere. He firmly believed that he was not the only one like him.

Pantro: "Wow! I've been teammates for a year, isn't it a bit too much to still not know your name?"

Lin Cheng: "I apologized. Besides, how could I not know his name? I just called him wrong."

Bono: "Is there any point in apologizing? Treat me to dinner."

Tu private was excited: "I want to eat beef, Lin Cheng's treat."

A group of people began to denounce Lin Cheng. Before the lottery results came out, Lin Cheng paid for a meal and went out.

KT's intra-team struggle has already made the audience in the live broadcast room burst into laughter.

The drawing of lots finally begins.

The two guests attending the draw were the champion junglers of S8 and S9, Xiaotian and Ning Wang.

FVP in the past two years can only attend this World Championship in this way, which shows that the competitive pressure of the LPL is indeed very high.

I don’t know if resting at home has made their temperament become decadent. The two FMVPs actually looked like pajamas in their suits, which caused a lot of ridicule in the barrage.

The first is the drawing of the No. 1 seed pool. Xiaotian drew the teams from the No. 1 seed pool one by one with a slight nervousness under the camera.

Although the two rounds of draws will determine the quarterfinals, the division of the first round of the knockout draw is actually very important, after all, it is related to the semifinals.

In the end, the two No. 1 seeds in the upper half are KT and SN, and the two No. 1 seeds in the lower half are GEN·G and DWG.

This means that at least before the finals, KT will not meet the other two teams in LCK.

GEN·G and DWG, who have been beaten by KT for a whole year, are probably relieved.

Then Ning Wang began to draw the No. 2 seed pool.

The first ball was opened by Ning Wang, and the red background was eye-catching.

TES.

The first one Ning drew was Top Esports.

DWG, who is in the same group as Top Esports, is in the lower half, so this draw will not trigger the same group avoidance principle, and Top Esports became the first No. 2 seed in the upper half.

It is KT that is facing it.

In this way, TES and KT will meet in the quarterfinals.

When this matchup situation was determined, the Chinese audience watching the draw were all blown up.

"Amazing! Ning Wang gave Top Esports a strong enemy right away."

"The hatred of the Ninja World War continued to the World Championship, right?"

"Ning Wang: Jack, look, I have a surprise for you."

"This matchup is exciting."

"Top Esports is not in good shape right now. It's too bad to play against KT right away."

"Left Hand has not yet entered the state and has to fight a tough battle. I'm really a little worried."

"The designated father is here! 369 is going to start pulling again."

"The No. 1 seed of LPL will not be eliminated in the quarterfinals, right? EDG is calling it an expert."

"Remember Knight's interview: reaching the semifinals is considered a success, now it feels really shaky."

"Reaching the quarterfinals is considered a success now!"

"What a naive pit! The first round of the draw determined that Top Esports would either fight to the death with KT or have a civil war with Suning."

"Indeed, if KT and DWG were drawn into the same half of the zone, we would definitely be guaranteed a place in the finals."

"It's so funny! You're already blaming the draw before the game even starts? Who made Top Esports fail in the group stage?"

"You can't blame the sky for being stupid, and you can't blame the draw for being bad."
