Chapter 106 Purgatory Mode! The knockout draw results are out

The results of Group D were as everyone expected. Gen.G ended up with a record of four wins and one loss, ranking first in the group with RA.

After Gen.G won four games, all eight knockout teams in this World Championship have been confirmed. The only thing that has not yet been confirmed is which of the two teams, Gen.G and RA, will qualify as first in the group.

The two sides ushered in the final showdown in the group stage of the World Championship, keeping the suspense until the end.

The outcome of this game is actually difficult to predict. Although RA successfully defeated Gen.G in the first round of the group stage, this was based on Fang Jie's continuous performance as a savior in critical situations in the game. on a basic basis.

That game was undoubtedly the toughest win for RA in the group stage.

Even though Fang Jie performed at the MVP level in every game, if he had to choose his best hand in all the games of the World Championship, it would definitely be the one he played best.

Fang Jie even filled up the experience bar of [Turn the Tide] in that game, advancing this fate from a developmental state to a cultivated state.

Therefore, from an objective perspective, netizens are even more optimistic about Gen.G.

Firstly, after experiencing their first defeat in the World Championship, Gen.G won four consecutive victories, and now their morale is at its peak. Secondly, it is actually difficult for Fang Jie to perform an incredible carry performance like in the last game. It's hard.

After all, no matter how strong a player is, there is a limit. JOJO is a human, not a god.

With the expectations of the audience and commentators, the game officially began.

As expected by some viewers before the game, everyone in Gen.G showed an excellent competitive state, and even the performance of some team members can be called explosive.

Gen.G's top laner Rascal and jungler Clid were originally a highly talked-about top and jungle combination. The two sides even staged the world-famous painting "Brothers survive all the calamities, meet and smile and forget the grudges" in the last World Championship. However, In this game, the two actually showed an excellent level of tacit understanding, transforming into conjoined twins and creating a huge hole in the top lane.

This also caused Rascal's Qinggang Shadow to enter a state of no fattening in advance. Not only did it put huge pressure on RA on the single-band side, but it also became a team-starting weapon that could not be countered in team battles.

However, with all members of Gen.G in excellent condition, RA still played several beautiful counterattacks.

It can only be said that JOJO is still the same JOJO, and Iboy's performance in the early stage is not inferior to Ruler.

However, as the game entered the middle and late stages, Bdd's Tsar and Ruler's Aphelios began to exert force. Thanks to the team's economic lead accumulated in the early stage, the output capabilities of the two teams were gradually no longer at the same level.

Under such a situation, RA dragged the game to 40 minutes, but unfortunately lost in the end.

After RA's crystal was bulldozed, I remember the teacher said with regret: "Jojo's blue men are poisonous, aren't they? I lost two hands of blue men in the World Championship. Both of them had full output, but they couldn't win the game."

"Hey, the two games that RA lost actually had the same problem, that is, the gap in the early stage of the top lane was too big. I admit that Cube's performance in the World Championship has improved significantly, but at present, this A little progress is obviously not enough." Cat King changed the topic: "I have no choice but to congratulate Brother Guan."

Guan Zeyuan was shocked when he heard this: "Congratulations to me for what?"

"On major issues of right and wrong, I still stand with our LPL." Guan Zeyuan said with a serious face.

While speaking, Guan Zeyuan tried hard not to let any emotional fluctuations appear on his face, because at this critical moment, once netizens caught something amiss, his social media account would be destroyed again.

You know, back then, my identity as a die-hard Samsung fan was criticized, and some netizens even changed their names and nationalities.

Privately, Colonel Guan definitely didn't like the title "Park Zeyuan".

The three great Onmyoji masters are always willing to use the most insidious means to push each other into the fire pit. However, fortunately, the skills of several of them are extremely deep. In terms of the level of picking off tricks at a glance, Colonel Guan and the Cat King have both reached the pinnacle. The heat that I honestly remember on weekdays is still lacking.

After losing this crucial game and advancing to the knockout rounds as second in the group, RA also began to suffer some criticism on a certain forum.

"I have long said that RA will not be able to go far in this world championship. Does anyone really think that JOJO is omnipotent? The top eight are over!"

"Have you told me before? I didn't see you speaking when RA won."

"JO fans are starting to get anxious, right? Who made you qualify second in the group? It doesn't matter who you beat in the first place in the group. Gen.G can't meet you. Who can beat SKT or DK? ”

"It's bad, there is a two-thirds chance that RNG will usher in a civil war... Hey, it's hard to get first place in the group, but in the end there is a high probability that it will meet its brothers at war..."

"This World Championship is over, everyone, please leave now. RA and EDG are the top eight, RNG is the top four, and the final is a Korean civil war again!"

After the knockout spots were confirmed, combined with the competitive state of each team, not only RA suffered some criticism, but netizens were quite unfavorable about the overall results of the LPL.

In fact, it is not just netizens who think so. With DK still at the peak of its power and T1 performing well in this World Championship, fully demonstrating the foundation of a strong team, even relevant practitioners who specialize in event analysis do not think so. We are optimistic about LPL's chances of winning this World Championship.

So, with online comments unanimously pessimistic, the draw for the knockout rounds officially began.

The knockout draw ceremony was held immediately after the entire schedule of the last match day of the group stage was played, so the game between Gen.G and RA had just come to an end, and only ten minutes later, the exciting draw session ushered in.

At this time, the RA team members had just returned to the lounge, and the team members looked at the big screen with solemn expressions.

Because everyone already knows that after qualifying as second in the group, their next journey to the World Championship will become extremely difficult.

Among them, Cube even looked a little self-blaming. Seeing this, Fang Jie patted him on the shoulder and said, "Ayi, you've played very well. It's my fault that Lebao and I didn't get more hits on the road in the early stage." Support.”

"That's right, Ayi, this one is really my fault. It's because I didn't handle the jungle farming rhythm well in the early stage." Le Yan quickly agreed.

"Oh, everyone, please relax. During the summer split, we didn't even dare to think about the top eight." Xiao Zhao also comforted us.

After hearing this, Cube forced out a smile and said: "Boss, no matter which team I encounter, I will try my best not to hold them back."

Fang Jie smiled and said: "You are wrong. As a team, there is no hindrance. Everyone can do their best."

After some conversation, the depressive atmosphere in the room became much lighter.

The draw has begun, and the person responsible for the draw for the knockout round is the official referee of the event.

Seeing the referee walking to the stage and taking out the first small ball with the team's logo hidden in it from the glass container, the hearts of all the spectators in front of the screen were already in their throats.

"It's RNG! RNG has been assigned to the top half." I remember blurting out immediately when the referee unfolded the note in his hand.

And when I saw that the second person drawn in the No. 1 pool was Gen.G, I remember the teacher immediately added: "What a draw!"

At first glance, this draw is indeed easy to draw, because Gen.G is indeed a relatively weak link among the four teams in the first pool.

Therefore, being assigned to the same half zone as Gen.G is undoubtedly very good for RNG's overall appearance.

At the same time that the lottery results came out, in the RA lounge, a glimmer of light flashed in Fang Jie's eyes.

What was supposed to come came.

According to the same group avoidance principle followed in the knockout draw, two teams qualifying from the same group will not be assigned to the same half.

In other words, when Gen.G appears in the upper half, RA can only go to the lower half.

As for the opponent RA is about to encounter, there are only two options left.

That is, the two teams in the No. 1 team pool that have not yet been drawn.

T1 and DK.

Several other people in RA didn't seem to realize this, until Colonel Guan said with a wry smile: "Then RA is in trouble."

I remember the teacher also looked puzzled: "Why is RA so difficult?"

Colonel Guan continued to lie: "RA is going to be beaten by the LCK team."

I remember showing a surprised look, looking at the big screen while repeatedly considering Guan Zeyuan's words.

After a few seconds, I remember suddenly realizing: "Fuck, it's really true!"

The sweet-tempered second brother uttered a curse word directly in the official live broadcast room.

Since RNG appears in the top half, the second HLE in Group B can only appear in the bottom half. In this way, the four teams in the bottom half are directly locked.

T1, DK, HLE and RA.

RA was directly surrounded by three Korean teams.

Although the commentary on the stage did not make it clear, almost everyone has realized that RA has basically gone away.

As the draw ceremony continued, DK became the third team to be drawn from Pool 1.

The remaining one is T1.

Then we entered the crucial draw for Pool 2.

The cast and audience held their breath.

The chief referee took out a small ball from the glass container and slowly opened the note inside.

"Hanwha!" The quick-eyed man remembered shouting: "In this case, Hanwha will directly enter the second half and go against DK!"

"That means RA will face T1 directly in the quarter-finals!"

Seeing this, Cube in the lounge once again hid his face, and Leyan, who had been relatively optimistic just now, grabbed his hair.

"Why are you playing, Brother Jie? This idea is too memorized." Le Yan said with an annoyed look on his face.

In fact, this was the result of the draw that Fang Jie had dreamed of. When he thought that he would play against the legendary devil Faker in a few days, Fang Jie suddenly felt a surge of pride in his chest.

Even a god will bleed one day.

What's more, Brother Crown and Caps have already done this before me.

"Lebao, how do you usually treat me?" Fang Jie suddenly asked an impossible question.

"You have nothing to say to me, what's wrong, Brother Jie." Le Yan said with a confused look on his face.

"Then help me." Fang Jie's words were not addressed to Le Yan alone.

He looked around, his eyes sweeping over his companions one by one.

"Help me climb this mountain and let everyone hear our story."

Come over the mountain and they will hear your story.

No matter how the story ends.

Fang Jie raised his eyes and saw that there seemed to be two huge mountains lying in front of him.

Towering straight into the clouds, it is majestic and has many mountains.

Halfway up the mountainside shrouded in mist, there seems to be a staircase of stone stacks hanging sideways on the cliff.

The road to Shu is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

But if you don’t climb the Shu Road, how can you know how difficult it is to win the championship?

Only by stepping on the mountains under your feet can you have a panoramic view of the wonderful scenery.

So when you reach the top, you can see all the small mountains at a glance. (End of chapter)
