Chinese time: October 21, 2022!
Location: New York, Madison Square Garden Hulu Theater!
Nearly a week has passed since the group stage ended.
The quarter-finals of this World Championship have finally begun!
The first knockout round was kicked off by the two teams Taobo and DK!
After staying in the hotel for a while, Chen Feng and the others got into the car provided by Riot Games and headed to the competition venue.
Due to the continuous opening for special reasons, this year’s scene has gradually returned to its previous grand splendor, with huge crowds of people and it can be said to be very lively.
Looking at the enthusiastic fans who came to support in a foreign country, and then looking at the exquisite Cosplayers who were beautifully dressed, with curvy figures, and Cosplaying various female League of Legends heroes, Dahuang, who was following him to see the world, couldn’t help but Sighed.
“It’s so big!”
“Where is it big?”
As a professional player, Chen Feng reacted quickly. While speaking, his eyes were also looking around.
"You guys, please pay attention to your image!" As the big brother, Kasa coughed twice as a reminder.
"You can hold it, your eyes are bigger than mine!" Chen Feng said disdainfully.
“I didn’t mean it unintentionally, don’t you understand it!”
“I understand, I understand!”
...
Amidst the cheers of fans, a group of people walked towards the venue.
After arriving at the venue, I happened to see Xu Xiu and the others.
Since everyone was familiar with each other, I extended my hand to say hello.
"Xiu, if we win today, as compensation, I will treat you to dinner!"
Hearing what Chen Feng said, Xu Xiu also laughed, "Chen Feng, being too confident is not a good thing.
I will give you the same words. If you lose, I will treat you to dinner. "
At this moment, Zhao Qianxi's voice sounded leisurely, "Xiu, didn't I remember that you had eaten the decapitation meal two days ago?"
One sentence, let Xu Xiu suddenly had a black line flowing down.
Think about the past, and look at now...
Qianxi, you are really led astray! ! !
......
After a few simple words, the two teams returned to today's temporary lounge.
"Ronaldinho, serve chicken soup!!!"
As soon as the front leg sat down, Zhao Qianxi's broken Chinese voice rang out from the back leg.
Seeing Luo Sheng's helpless and crazy look, Kasa and the others burst out laughing.
About ten minutes later, a staff member came over to remind me.
“Come on, I believe in you!”
Before going on the field, Guo Hao cheered and asked a few people if they wanted to eat something.
After a person is full, his reaction ability will be reduced, so in order to maintain sufficient concentration, Chen Feng and the others did not eat.
Of course, it’s okay to give it a little extra boost and eat a banana to supplement it.
"Brother Hao, you just need to remember to help us apply for bonuses. This is the most important thing!"
Hearing what Chen Feng said, Guo Hao also laughed and scolded He said, "Don't worry, Brother Hao has never treated you badly!"
With the exciting music, the host slowly walked onto the stage and began to introduce everyone from the two teams.
When Taobo was introduced, there was a roar of enthusiasm.
You must know that this is a foreign country, and it is not easy to provide such an atmosphere on site.
“A bunch of fans are making a fuss. If you shout so loudly now, your face will be slapped!”
“That’s disgusting, DK!”
"No, you are not allowed to shout at the scene, right? If you have the ability, go to the scene."
"No one is really doing it for a few bad gamers. After that? Let’s see how exciting it is!”
"If you play classic games, you must be a successful person."
"I drove a Lamborghini at the age of sixteen, what level am I at?"
"I just came here, what's the pace today?" Did the Ice King die suddenly? Did Song Yijin do his best? In addition to the audience, there were naturally other professional players.
For example, the people in T1 are just below.
As Taobo is the favorite to win this year, they naturally have to be cautious.
I happened to have nothing to do at the base, so I came to the scene.
"Youqi, I didn't expect you to ask to come to the game." Liu Minxi looked pleased with his elders, but in fact he was much shorter than Zeus.
"This time Taobo is in the other half, which means that as long as they can keep winning, they will meet us." Zeus took a deep breath and seemed to remember something, "So we know Only those who know themselves well can survive a hundred battles!”
"Know your enemy and your friend, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger?" Li Sang Hyuk muttered slightly, "Who did you learn this from?"
"Follow Brother Feng!" Faced with Li Sang Hyuk's question, Zeus scratched the back of his head and laughed.
"But what if we are eliminated halfway and can't meet them?"
At this time.
Oner, who was very nervous and had protein powder in his head, said something.
This sentence made the others in T1 unable to process it immediately, so they could only remain silent.
Even the stupid chicken on the side twitched the corners of his mouth.
He suddenly wanted to take a look at the other person's head,
What the hell is inside! ! !
……
After the players came on stage, while the equipment was being debugged, the director played out the trash talk before the game.
Song Yijin is still the same, saying that he will try his best, in short, he will stand out as an official!
And Xu Xiu and the others also talked about revenge.
Since DK is an acquaintance, and the two teams always play training matches on weekdays, even Chen Feng rarely tried to face off, but just pretended a little.
But when it was Zhao Qianxi’s turn, it was different.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time, and I have to win today no matter what!"
Looking at Zhao Qianxi's plump figure on the big screen, the live broadcast room in South Korea was stunned.
“Who can tell me what exactly happened to Gemstone in LPL?”
“I almost didn’t recognize it!!!”
“It can be seen from this that LPL is different. Not to mention, the food is really good!”
"Side proof, DK's food..."
"Let me tell you, this actually has nothing to do with the food. The main reason is that Zhao Qianxi touched something he shouldn't have touched!"
"This traitor , Xu Xiu will definitely beat him to death!"
......
In the commentary box.
After receiving the reminder from the staff, Guan Zeyuan remembered that Rita and the other three quickly got into work.
“Welcome the summoners on site and in front of the screen to watch our 2022 League of Legends Global Finals, the top eight knockout match between Taobo and DK
I am today’s commentator, Guan Zeyuan. "
"Hello everyone, I remember!"
"I am Rita!" After the three explanations briefly introduced themselves, Guan Zeyuan went straight to the point. , "In addition to Taobo, our LPL has two other teams that have entered the knockout rounds.
And Taobo will start the first battle of our LPL team’s knockout round!
As far as I know, because of Beryl, Tao Bo has a very good relationship with DK in private.
We may be able to see from the documentary released by Taobo that the two teams also often play training matches.
In other words, both teams know each other very well. ”
"Brother Guan, do you think Taobo has a higher probability of winning today, or DK has a higher probability of winning?" I remember asking aloud.
This can be regarded as a classic part of the commentary before the game.
Although everyone knows that the team's victory or defeat has nothing to do with Guan Zeyuan's prediction, it is too evil to be unable to stand up to this guy.
"Well..."
Hearing the inquiry, Guan Zeyuan pretended to hesitate.
"Personally, I definitely think Taobo can win.
After all, Taobo performed very well in the LPL this year, especially when the former assistant Creator switched to the top lane, Taobo introduced After adding former DK assistant Beryl, their overall strength has been enhanced.
Especially in terms of command and operation, we can see that the addition of Beryl has greatly improved Taobo in this aspect. "
"Looking back at DK, their performance in the LCK this year is actually not very satisfactory.
And after all, Taobo is our No. 1 seed in the LPL. DK is just the third seed.”
After hearing Guan Zeyuan's analysis, many people's hearts trembled.
There are lessons learned from RNG's battle with G2, so even if this is indeed the case, it still makes people have to face it with caution.
After all, there are no weak teams in the top eight!
......
With everyone's expectations, the moving pictures of the first game of both sides finally appeared on the big screen.
Game 1.
Taobo is located on the blue side and has the right to move first and choose first.
DK is on the red side and has the final Counter position.
After this group match, and because the two teams often play training matches, there is a lot of information collected.
Tao Bo pressed the male gun when he came up, not polite at all.
As for DK, they immediately moved out Chen Feng's Qinggang Ying, which was also targeted and full.
“Both sides are targeting each other’s best heroes.” Guan Zeyuan couldn’t help but sigh when he saw this.
“But after Beryl left DK, we could clearly feel that Canyon’s jungler was very uncomfortable.
Although there is Showmaker in the middle, there is a lack of support. He still doesn’t feel as comfortable as before.”
While talking and laughing, the first round of moving people on both sides was over.
After Taobo pressed down the man's gun, he moved out the policewoman and Silas.
After DK removed Qinggang Ying, they added Lenata and Wei.
Looking at the jungler who was still outside, Taobo helped Casa lock the big tree first.
I’m worried that DK will just rob Pig Girl and Dashu together. After all, Pig Girl can go on the road.
Although Kasa can also play jungle core, he is still better at playing this kind of tool jungler with partial control map.
Seeing this, DK helped Xu Xiu lock Lissandra with his backhand, and then took another Foyego.
"Oh? DK directly showed up in the middle and jungle, and didn't do anything false at all!" I remember shouting in response to the situation.
“In this case, Nuguri on the road may have to assume the responsibility of the front row of the team.”
……
Looking at DK directly playing in the middle and jungle, Taobo Here I helped Song Yijin get a Czar, and after that, he took out a Sword Demon for Chen Feng.
If Nuguri uses Pig Girl or Ornn, then it is purely a toy of Sword Demon, and he can just draw the top and play with it on the road.
Besides, Chen Feng will definitely be defeated by Conte anyway, so it doesn’t matter if he goes out early or late.
Seeing that Taobo showed the Sword Demon in his third hand, Nuguri, as the top laner, discussed with the coach and decided not to occupy the counter position himself, so he chose Crocodile to deal with it.
The first three moves of both parties were confirmed, and they entered the second round of moving.
The second round was relatively simple. DK removed Han Bing because during the training match, they discovered that Zhao Qianxi would definitely play Han Bing as long as he could.
Unfortunately, my own support was just mediocre, so I just moved it out.
As everyone knows, there is a reason why Zhao Qianxi keeps playing. After all, as a lover, who would refuse Alicia's skin?
Soon.
The second round of relocations for both sides is over.
Due to the lack of ability to start a team, DK directly locked a Titan.
As a result, Zhao Qianxi gave a reminder as soon as he saw Titan.
"Yu Wenbo, don't always pick up Titan's skills!"
"Um..." Ah Shui blinked, "Then I'll try my best!"
… …
"The Titans on the opposite side should be paired with a big core AD. What should we play in the bottom lane?" Luo Sheng, pretending to be a coach, asked in a low voice.
What's so hard about being a coach?
Copy other people's BP, and when you're done, ask the player which hero is easier to beat in the opponent's lineup, and give it to him.
In the end, after the team loses the game, it will be great if they can withstand the pressure and take the blame!
Being a coach is so easy!
“Go big!”
"Okay!"
After a brief discussion, Tao Bo directly showed his big head.
The moment I saw this hero, the tone of my memory instantly increased.
"Big Head! I haven't seen this hero for a long time. I remember the last time he appeared in the support position was the last time!"
"And this hero is very capable of restraining Titans!"
After the big head was locked, Ah Shui naturally started playing Verus because the ice was moved.
The ultimate move can start a group, and the skills can also be consumed.
Seeing Taobo take out the big head, DK also felt sick.
How could I forget this! ! !
There was no way, after all, it was the management who personally gave Zhao Qianxi to the other side, and the original Zhao Qianxi still wanted to fight for it and continue to stay in DK to play in the brotherhood alliance.
But there was nothing he could do after he had already chosen, and he still lacked a core output, so DK picked up Aphelios for the Ghost Emperor in his fifth hand.
At this point, the lineups of both sides have been determined.
Taobo's top laner Sword Demon, jungler's tree, mid laner Tsar, bottom laner Verus and the Great Inventor.
DK top lane Crocodile, jungler Ruin King, mid lane Lissandra, bottom lane Titan and Aphelios.
……
"Come on, come on, come on!!!"
When exchanging heroes to their respective users, Zhao Qianxi cheered everyone up for the first time.
You must know that at times like this before, he basically didn't speak much.
This also allowed Chen Feng and the others to feel that Zhao Qianxi's fighting spirit was very high today.
But thinking about it, it was true. After all, he was facing his old club, and he and his old club did not break up peacefully.
You must know that if possible, Zhao Qianxi would not leave DK. He wanted to continue playing with Xu Xiu and the others.
But the management kicked him out, so in today's game, Zhao Qianxi wanted to prove his purpose.
