LPL's dream of overall victory on the first day was shattered.
The fault lies with IG.
For this reason, many people began to pick up the keyboard and criticize IG verbally and writingly.
"Inexperienced teams really shouldn't come to the World Championships!"
"What we want is not experience, what we want is the championship trophy!"
"IG is really unworthy! Not as good as EDG!"
"EDG may not be able to do well this year, but in terms of experience, IG is really not comparable. Even WE, they are much better than IG!"
"What a shame! The team predicted to be ranked second is using this to repay the fans?"
“IG is so disappointing!”
In the past, the LPL was not so harsh on their representative teams.
Even if he wants to spray, he will wait until he is on the verge of being eliminated before starting to spray.
IG just lost a small game. Strictly speaking, this is completely acceptable.
But there are too many meanings behind this battle.
In the first game, they faced Zhuang Tian's G2.
team's debut
Many players’ career world debuts
But it ends in this way, which is somewhat emotional.
"It's not that they can't accept IG's failure, it's that they can't accept the master's pentakill!"
It's not a big deal to watch the excitement.
Kimchi is very close to China, and there are countless Chinese people and Chinese students who came to watch the game.
It is easy to see from their expressions that Zhuang Tian's five kills really broke their mentality.
But that's what Kimchi wants.
The more excited the mentality, the more interesting this S game will be.
Not only that, they also want to kill people!
Schedule a post-match interview!
After this battle, many media invited Zhuang Tian to participate in post-match interviews.
LPL wants to interview, EU wants to interview, LMS also wants to interview.
But they can't stand up to the official arrangements.
As the organizer of this event, LCK has the highest priority for interviews, so Zhuang Tian stood on the stage for the post-match interview.
Kimchi also understands very well that this man with multiple identities brings his own traffic and topics.
There are too many topics to explore about Zhuang Tian, and they have to cherish them.
"Master player. Congratulations on scoring five kills in the first game of S8. You are currently the player with the most five kills in the World Championship. Do you have anything to say about this?"
Zhuang Tian: "What I want to say most is that I hope I can get a few less next time."
The host was stunned: "How many less? Why?"
Zhuang Tian: "I'm so tired. I still hope my teammates can play more. They performed a little too poorly today."
OK OK...
It didn't disappoint.
Not only do you want to slander your opponents, but you also want to yin and yang with your teammates. I really dare to say that!
But when Ah P and others in the background heard such comments, they all lowered their heads.
"Then the second question. What do you think of the official evaluation before the game? Judging from the official data, you seem to be ranked tenth. Do you think this list is authoritative?"
As soon as this question was asked, the whole audience was silent.
Everyone is looking forward to Zhuang Tian's answer. After all, this list is indeed a bit too embarrassing for Zhuang Tian.
Zhuang Tian took his time and responded with a smile: "I think that list is quite reasonable."
Zhuang Tian's answer made the host a little confused.
Reasonable?
Even the host thinks it’s unreasonable, but the person involved actually thinks it’s reasonable?
"You got five kills today, but some of the players ahead of you have obviously worse results than you. Do you really think that's reasonable? Do you also think they are worse than you?"
Zhuang Tian showed a puzzled look: "Better than me? What do you mean? Doesn't that list rank the most overrated professional players?"
The host was confused, Zhuang Tian was confused, and the audience was confused.
Even the professional players on the list were confused!
Ranking of the most overrated pro players?
Isn't that stain
"Can you bear this? Don't worry, puppy, I'll trap him right away!"
Xiang Guo had a rather impatient temper and started to roll up his sleeves as he spoke.
Instead, the stain appears much more mature now.
"Forget it, forget it, he's just this kind of person, I'm used to it."
Xiangguo glanced at the stain in horror, sat down and fell silent.
At this time, he had already felt that after returning from the Asian Games, Zhu Zi and Xiao Ming seemed to have gone against them.
From the most powerful player to the most overrated player
Zhuang Tian's emotional intelligence has been recognized by most people.
"Hahaha, at first glance, it's not like I, the alpaca, can't accept it."
"Don't say it, you really don't say it. Looking at it this way, this list suddenly becomes reasonable."
"UZI: Do you respect people?"
Finally, the host also mentioned LPL.
"As an EDG player last season, what do you think is the biggest difference after joining G2? Which team do you prefer to play on?"
There is a saying that people who ask this kind of question are somewhat ignorant.
An old club or a new club. Saying that one is good is equivalent to saying that the other is bad. No matter how you say it, it is wrong.
The fight has been brought into other people's faces!
But Zhuang Tian had a relaxed expression and responded quickly: "It's all good. Whether in EDG or G2, there are games to play and food to eat. I won't be reduced to being a substitute and eating leftovers from the starting lineup. What do you think?"
Upon hearing these words, the host's face suddenly darkened, and his laughter was worse than his tears.
"What does it mean? What does it mean to be a substitute and eat leftovers?"
"Ah? You don't know this? Master, this is the Yin Yang LCK! There are many situations in their division that use seniority to squeeze newcomers. It is said that the newcomers of many teams have to eat after the starting players finish eating. And the food is still What’s left of them!”
"Damn it! So dark? Is it less of a thing than RNG?"
"RNG: Why do you think I can continue to operate? It all depends on the support of my peers!"
"Hahaha, now I understand why these pickles like to come to our LPL to play games. They really can't get enough to eat in the LCK!"
Zhuang Tian's remarks did not make the pickles angry.
Because in their view, Zhuang Tian was just stating an objective fact, not counting yin and yang.
This is the characteristic of their division. The senior ones can bully the junior ones. It's the same for everyone, and they even enjoy it.
But they can accept players from their own division bullying newcomers, but they will never accept players from other divisions bullying them!
Are you pretending to be a critic in this arena? not enough! Not qualified yet!
This year they have the advantage of home court. The stadium in Busan is so small that only their players can stand on the stage!
But something unexpected happened!
The LPL's dream of a complete victory on the first day had just been shattered, and bad news came from the LCK.
AFS was the first to overturn.
Let’s first take a look at the configuration of the AFS team, and then see how difficult it is to accept this result.
The top position is kiin.
That's right, he is the new king who has squeezed out Khan, Semb and other veteran SKT top laners!
Although he was severely educated by Zhuang Tian at the Asian Games, he still couldn't hide his brilliance.
His vast hero pool and versatile playstyle are his trump cards.
This season, he is the strength of AFS. Almost most fans in the LCK agree that AFS's ability to enter the World Championship is inseparable from this person.
Jungle, Sprite.
This person should be familiar to LPL viewers. He once played for WE and also stayed in the FNC team.
But new fans may not know that. He was also one of the ten Samsung players in his earliest days. He once played for Samsung Blue and his playing style was quite aggressive.
Although he is older now, as a jungler in such a young team, his experience is an indispensable factor for AFS.
Mid laner, kuro. The former fang of the Tigers!
Back then, he almost stood out from everyone and became the No. 1 Middle School in the world, but in the end, he was just one step away. Da Fei pinned him to the ground and rubbed him hard. He couldn't raise his head no matter what.
The duo in the bottom lane are pure newcomers. It doesn’t matter how strong they are, but they can fight their way through the LCK. Even if they are not good enough, they are nothing.
Just such a star-studded team felt defeated on the first day of the group stage.
The most unacceptable thing is that what they lost was not the first place in the group, but the EU team, G2's former eldest brother and now younger brother, FNC!
"Wow! Why is Oucheng so fierce?"
"Is it Oucheng Meng? Why do I think it's this top laner? There seems to be something about this top laner!"
"Isn't this top laner my sister-in-law? Isn't my sister-in-law famous for being easy to fight? Can he have something?"
"No, how is the data of Shen 1-2-11 better? Where can I see something?"
"You only look at the data and not the game, right? This Shen has a few moves that are so eye-catching! The timing of his ultimate move is perfect!"
"Look! The MVP goes to Shen! What do you say?"
Let me tell you, after this match, the audience did have a different view of the FNC team.
It’s not that they took points from AFS, so they thought FNC had something.
But from their laning, to the operation of the team, and the calmness and decisive decision-making they showed when dealing with disadvantages, their progress can be seen!
Double C is very good, and the players in other positions are also good. This team is already at the level of the top eight.
"They didn't seem that good last year, right? I feel like they've improved a lot this year!"
"Forget it about Oucheng and Caps, why can my sister-in-law stand up? I can't accept it!"
"What's going on with this KIIN? Anyone can defeat him, right?"
For the audience's doubts, the strongest mouth helped them find the answer for Yu Shuang.
"Sister-in-law, many LPL fans like you very much. They all want to ask you, why have you improved so much this season? I feel that your top lane performance is getting better and better. Especially in this game, Shen has played well. How do you achieve the feeling of a single card?"
My sister-in-law smiled shyly and said a lot.
Yu Shuang translated it to the audience, and the fans were stunned.
"I'm very grateful to LPL fans for their love. To be honest, the main reason why I'm getting better and better at Shen is that I'm being overpowered by the master."
"When I played in the summer split of our division, I was beaten by him every time. I really couldn't win. I could only study this kind of supporting hero. As I played, I felt that I had found my own position."
"Speaking of which, I have to thank Master!"
Okay! After going around in circles for a long time, it was Zhuang Tian who did it!
"Is this guy really a mercenary? Can he lead a group of people wherever he goes?" (End of Chapter)
