In this S7 World Championship, LPL did very well.
Starting from the opening ceremony, not to mention the attendance rate, it was packed every day and it was hard to get a ticket.
The most important thing is that the number of online viewers continues to rise!
It’s back, all the traffic is back!
Even after the end of S6, those players who abandoned the game came back!
"It is said that this year is the most promising year again? I'm here to see what's going on."
"Ha! I'm tired of hearing this, and my ears are getting calluses."
"Hey! Where are you now? When I first heard this, I was still single. Now when I hear this again, I am the father of two children!"
"No. There is really hope this year! Our LPL is going strong!"
"Blast? Which one is stronger?"
"They are all strong! EDG, RNG, and WE are all very promising this year!"
"EDG? Can EDG still hold up in the World Championship?"
"Don't say anything. I'm just here to see EDG go out today. Let me guess who will be this year's war criminal?"
Before the game officially started, the official live broadcast room had already been invaded by fans.
There are black stones, white stones, strings, and even those little transparent ones who have returned halfway are gradually joining them.
The officials are very happy about such a grand occasion. During this period, they have almost made a fortune from advertising revenue and sponsorships alone!
For this reason, they are also very willing to do marketing. The scene is decorated in an extremely grand manner, and the big screen starts playing highlights of the contestants in the first round early.
Of course, highlights alone cannot fully mobilize the emotions of fans and the atmosphere of the scene.
If you really want to stir up the atmosphere, you have to talk trash!
Then, it comes!
During the trash talk session, the first ones to appear are usually Muggles.
Like AHQ, players from the bottom team in the first round will be the first to be thrown up.
The higher the ranking of the team, the more they like to talk trash before the game. I know it for sure! You can speak confidently and calmly.
On the contrary, AHQ is very jailed.
It’s already 0-3, why are you asking me to pretend to be a bad guy? Why don't you tell me to just find a tofu and kill me?
But you are the organizer, and if you have requests, I have to listen to you.
Xiao An: "Winning first does not mean winning, and losing first does not necessarily mean losing forever. Let's wait and see."
It's the limit.
This is already the most cruel trash talk for AHQ. If they keep pretending, even they will not believe themselves.
Next is C9, the representative character Jason.
Jason: "We were almost first. EDG and SKT were both lucky. But their luck ran out in the first round."
Okay, average.
Although what the first two Muggles said was a bit bland, it did have a slight edge to trash talk.
And the person who appeared next... set the scene on fire!
As soon as the screen changed, the person hadn't appeared yet, but the voice arrived first!
"Xi Ba Da Fei! Put your head over here!"
Outrageous! Totally outrageous!
Zhuang Tian's simple and rude words instantly ignited the scene, and his laughter almost completely lifted the ceiling of the main venue!
"Hahahaha! Niubi! I'm laughing so hard!"
"Hahahaha. Simple and crude, so healing!"
"This is rubbish talk! Those people in front are all talking about Gou Ba, and there is no smell of gunpowder at all!"
"That's right! If you don't talk harshly, what's the point of talking about it? If you want to say it, you have to feel like you are killing your father! Otherwise, you won't be able to arouse the excitement!"
"Hahaha who is this guy? Why do you do that? When did LPL have such a character? He is too brave!"
"My brother's village just got internet access? You don't even know your adoptive father?"
"Clam?"
Why can’t LPL lift its head every year?
Why are fans so resentful every year?
Not only is the performance in the competition area poor, but more importantly, none of the professional players are arrogant!
Let’s not talk about whether you are strong or not. You are so tough-talking!
Ever since the elite anti-Korean warriors from S3 retired, no one in the LPL has spoken out harshly!
Fans dare to go to the sea and compete in the lane, and professional players compete with each other with mountain guns!
People can ride on your face and do damage, so why can't you fly freely over others?
Just put on the cloak of a professional player and pretend to be aloof, letting others take advantage of you?
Such players are collectively called soft persimmons!
There hasn't been a tough guy in LPL for a long time, and Zhuang Tian successfully carried the banner!
"Hey! That's right! That's how you should pretend! Why do you keep letting them pretend? Just point at his head and scold me!"
"Yes! Just quarrel with him and that's it! When I was playing professionally, I was better than him! Let's not say whether we can win the game or not. You can't lose by trash talking! Well done! This is where bad mouth should be used!"
"It doesn't matter if the fans are angry or not, as long as I'm comfortable! It's better if Kimchi is so angry that it's better to be so angry that Da Fei can't play the game, then we'll be more comfortable!"
At this time, two fat men with big heads and big ears silently applauded Zhuang Tian behind the screen.
It has to be said that Zhuang Tian’s opening lightning strike was so severe that the LCK audience was not even interested in watching Da Fei’s trash talk session. The barrage in the official LCK live broadcast room was as lively as the Chinese New Year.
"Xiba! So angry! Why can such trash talk pass the test? LPL deliberately disgusts people, right?"
"Is this person qualified? Does this person look like a professional player? Why can such a person play in the LPL?"
"This wave is mine. When I encountered him in rank, I should have killed him!"
"It's over. I'm so angry that I can't even eat dinner today!"
"Still eating? When I see him, I feel like I've eaten a fly!"
"Brothers, don't panic, they in LPL are just tough-talking. Let's wait for SKT to torture them again. Let's get extra food tonight!"
"That's right, you're not angry at all. This batch can't beat us. Are you angry? Xiba!"
She said she wasn't angry, but in fact Kun'er was furious.
Let's face it, this pre-game trash talk is indeed necessary.
Otherwise, the fight will start immediately, not to mention the audience will feel unable to get into the state, and even the players will feel that their hands are a bit raw.
But after Zhuang Tian made such a fuss, his mood got up!
The people in SKT got excited, and so did everyone else in the group!
"So... let's enjoy today's first game, SKT versus AHQ!"
To all the viewers at the scene, and even all the viewers on the barrage, this seemed to be a game without any suspense.
AHQ, who is at the bottom of the group, plays SKT, who is first in the group. The winning rate is not only 73, but at least 91!
But I don’t know if it was due to the trash talk session, but SKT was suppressed by AHQ at the beginning!
And this kind of suppression was so exaggerated that even ten minutes into the game, the Big Devil found a breakthrough, and was cooperated by the AHQ midfielder and got first blood!
At this time, the LCK audience felt that something was wrong...
It is obvious that after entering the canyon today, AHQ players entered the game at a faster and better pace, while SKT seemed to have been passively defending and had no desire to take the initiative to attack.
"Ah? SKT is at a disadvantage again!" IBOY, who was watching the game backstage, couldn't help but exclaimed.
It's so strange, a bit weird indeed.
SKT's 3-0 score in the first round can be said to be very tortuous, and everyone was able to suppress them in the early stage.
I thought this situation would change as we entered the second round, but I never thought it would still be the same!
Factory Director: "So what? They will turn over in the end anyway. Just one blood for each one really doesn't mean much."
Zhuang Tian has a different view: "It's really not necessarily true. SKT's lineup is not as solid as it was against us that day. And in terms of the output ability in the later period, Big Mouth is stronger than Verus!"
SKT's passivity doesn't just come from the lane, they already feel very passive when drafting.
After Xiao Pao and Xia Xia were both banned, SKT let their champion bottom lane duo bring out Verus Galulu, who was strong in the early game.
It's just that this advantage didn't last long, as Big Mouth and Feng Nu were able to beat back with force.
The most critical thing was the matchup in the middle. When AHQ took the lead in getting the Murloc, SKT passively let Feike take out Kassadin to counterattack.
As a result, he suffered severely.
The desperate AHQ began to unleash their potential. They relied on their early advantages to snowball step by step, heading straight for an economic lead of 10,000!
I originally thought that EDG's script was about to happen, but AHQ was very confident. A wave of ancient dragons sent SKT home directly, and also won their first victory in this world championship!
"ah?"
"ah?"
"SKT lost?"
"No, it's really shocking!"
"I'll join in! EDG's opportunity has come!"
"AHQ really didn't support you in vain! You are indeed the eldest son of my EDG!"
EDG fans are so happy...
AHQ upset SKT and muddied the waters in Group A!
With SKT's defeat, the entire situation in Group A suddenly became unclear!
Do you dare to say that AHQ has no chance of qualifying?
Do you dare to say that SKT will definitely advance?
Not necessarily!
"I have a doubt. If... I mean, if... SKT is in this state, is it possible to be eliminated in the group stage?"
"Hi!!! I dreamed that I was Do Minjun, and I never dreamed that Dafei would be eliminated in the group stage! That was so exciting!"
"Don't tell me, don't tell me, just because of the state of EDG and C9 in the first round, SKT is not guaranteed to win!"
"No...what's wrong with SKT? I always feel like everyone is acting weird today and they have no advantage at all in the laning!"
"Indeed! Especially the bottom lane, he was sprayed numb by the big mouth! 0-1-0 is this the data that a Triple Crown AD should have?"
"It's 400 dollars for free, but there's not even a single assist."
"It's really hard. I'm flying. One person killed the whole team!"
"Remember to add, 2!"
Maybe fans from other regions don’t understand, how could SKT become so weak?
Fans in the LCK region have only one thought at the moment.
"The one who got sprayed by that stinky mouth! It's him!"
"You're right! Too scheming! He just wiped out my Xianghe's mentality!"
"It's so dirty! If you can't beat it with physical attacks, then you can use magic output, right? I'm really going to vomit after seeing it!"
"SKT will lose, and EDG will take the blame!"
At the same time, backstage in EDG's lounge, everyone grinned.
"Hahaha, here's your chance!"
"AHQ is awesome! Qualification is guaranteed!"
"???This is a little bit of promise"
