Chapter 702: The road to legend cannot be disputed!
"Fuck, classic!"
"What a Samsung S8 that explodes during normal operation."
"Brother Jie is so bold."
"From today on, I will become a die-hard fan."
"Let me be honest, anyone who buys a Samsung S8 is a fool!"
“…”
This time, it received the support of almost all the audience.
Samsung was forced to recall products in ten countries and regions due to the incident in which its Note 7 phone turned into a time bomb.
But they refused to handle after-sales services for domestic users.
They even turned the tables, saying that domestic users used other means to heat their phones and artificially created faults to discredit Samsung.
This incident happened not too long ago.
The next generation Samsung S8 is still selling well.
Xing Dao defeated the Samsung team, which changed its name to GEN, by "practicing heroes" and said this during an interview, which clearly shows that he has other intentions.
Although it says GEN on the surface, it actually refers to Samsung mobile phones.
What’s even more interesting is.
I don’t know whether GEN was stunned or if there was something wrong with his thinking.
October 12, 9pm.
GNE lost again in the game against C9...
Lost again!
In terms of lineup, C9 used a charging system with Urgot on top, Jarvan II on jungle, Galio on mid, and Tristana and Aldridge on bottom.
GEN might have gained experience from Xing Dao, so Qiu Zhi CuVee followed suit and picked a top lane Poppy.
The other positions are jungle Taliyah, mid lane Aatrox, and Lucian + Rakan in the bottom lane.
Logically speaking.
Luo's RW charm + knock-up can control tanks who usually don't have the resilience talent for up to two seconds. It is used to restrict the front row and allow Poppy's charged hammer to hit the target. It is indeed a perfect combo.
With the help of Taliyah to divide the battlefield, Lucian's burst, and Aatrox's explosive AOE, it is easy to win the team battle.
In the first twenty minutes, GEN had a 4-2 kill ratio, established a 1,500 economic difference, and obtained two elemental dragons, one wind and one fire, and the situation was very good.
However.
When fighting over Baron Nashor.
C9's support Lao Niu played an ultimate flanking move that involved walking thousands of yards, walked a long circle along the jungle, flashed over the wall, and drove towards Lucian!
Prince EQR charges.
Galio follows up with [Hero's Appearance].
Urgot even performed a precise headlock, dragging Lucian into the meat grinder with a rusty subway chain, and flashing into the crowd just in time to scare Poppy who was charging her ultimate!
Emperor Chi, die!
Knock away and break!
Luo's control is futile.
Even though the Sword Demon activated [Great Annihilation] and spread his wings to reach his peak, he could only fall to the ground with resentment when faced with the burly men and the cannon that outputted without pressure in the distance.
The rest of the GEN team had no way to escape from Tristana who could refresh her W combo.
C9 used one hero, Prince, to exchange for five lives of GEN, got Baron Nash, and immediately reversed the situation!
and.
C9, known as the "Light of North America", is not a third-rate team like MAD that can't fight in a team.
Even in world-class competitions, C9 is still ranked second.
And they are not the bottom ones among the second-rate ones.
The GEN team, which has the bottom lane combination of Qiu Zhi CuVee and Asian Games, has first-class strength on paper.
However, with everyone in a panic, they were unable to perform to their full potential.
The team was constantly wounded by C9, and the economic gap widened to more than 8,000 yuan.
So far.
The three major items, Storm Cut, Cannon, and Infinity, were completed, and he also took out a small cannon with Mercury Treads and entered an invincible state.
36 minutes and 24 seconds.
C9 drove straight in with two lanes of super soldiers, wiped out GEN, destroyed the base crystal, and won a victory that was crucial to them!
“Congratulations to C9 for defeating GEN and winning the last game of the third day of the group stage.”
“It’s definitely a blast for North American fans.”
"This was a very difficult game for C9. They faced the same hero combination that EDG used to easily defeat GEN yesterday. They were in a tough battle in the early stages, but they seized the only opportunity and turned the situation around with their old bull and perfect teamfight performance!"
Miller's voice was full of gloating: "GEN's loss in this game really achieved an unprecedented 0-3 start in the LCK region."
"I have to say, General's statement that 'Samsung S8 will explode' was very prescient." Rita is only concerned about creating chaos in the world.
"Yes!" Miller added fuel to the fire: "Then today's games are all over. The previous results are that RNG lost to LCK's No. 1 seed KT, North America's No. 1 seed TL lost to G2, IG easily defeated FNC, 100T defeated GRX... EDG's Zzitai and Jiejie defeated MAD and continued to maintain their lead in Group B."
"There will be no EDG game tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow, October 14, the remaining matches of Group B will be played in one day to determine the top two places to advance to the quarterfinals of this year's World Finals."
“I wonder if GEN will become the first LCK team to be eliminated in the group stage after S3…”
The LPL side is just here to watch the fun.
The comments and forums in North America are already boiling.
They all shouted the slogan that NA is greater than KR.
GEN started with a 0-3 lead, which meant that even if they won the next three games, the score would only be 3-3.
C9 starts with a 2-1 lead, and if they win any of the next games, they will reach a 3-3 lead.
In addition, since they defeated GEN in this battle, even if C9 loses to GEN and the points are tied, the win-loss relationship will be exactly the same, and they can still fight for a chance to qualify through an extra game.
not to mention.
What is the probability of GEN winning against EDG on the red side?
What is the probability of C9 defeating MAD?
It is no exaggeration to say that GEN currently only has the possibility of "qualifying in theory", and the actual difficulty of qualifying is as difficult as climbing to the sky!
You know, the decision is actually in EDG's hands...
“Is it necessary to let C9 go?”
BP coach Maokai put forward an idea in the post-match meeting: "As long as we give C9 one point, GEN will be gone, and there will be no trace... We have secured first place in the group, so we always have to practice the lineup."
Fake matches must not be played.
This is a matter of principle.
but.
Making reasonable use of the rules is an impeccable thing.
Due to the imperfect competition system in the 1993 football match, there was a strange behavior in which the two teams competed to kick the ball into their own goal.
In subsequent traditional sports events, deliberate "score control" is also common.
According to Maokai's idea, since EDG's first place in the group is as stable as a rock, he might as well manipulate the rankings of other teams.
It not only paves the way for other LPL clubs, but also prevents the old powerhouse GEN from suddenly exploding and becoming a threat to EDG in subsequent games.
After all, in the S7 finals, GEN, also known as Samsung, beat EDG in a small game and was the best performing team in LCK.
“Hmm…”
Abu did not comment, and turned his gaze to the players: "What do you think? Tell us what you think... Say whatever you think. We have played together for so long, there is nothing we can't communicate."
"I don't think it's necessary." As a founding member of the team, the factory director was the first to speak up.
"No need." Ah Shui echoed: "It's just a three-star. We beat him last year and we can beat him this year as well!"
Xiye and Meiko didn't say anything, but both had expressions that showed they agreed with the statement.
Which professional player is not a talented young man?
Who hasn’t been full of vigor and vitality?
If Abramovich, as the club manager, asks to control the points in subsequent games, perhaps someone will listen.
But if we let the team members discuss it, no one will support this proposal.
"I think... we should not do this."
As soon as Xing Dao opened his mouth, he attracted everyone's attention: "This year is our journey to strive for the Super Grand Slam and three consecutive championships. We should not cause any controversy due to subjective reasons. Even if this is reasonable and legal, there will be no trace of deliberateness. We will never be able to get over this hurdle in our hearts."
"If a professional player doesn't even have the mentality to win and only thinks about playing tricks, it's no different from being useless."
"Besides, even if we play normally, GEN is unlikely to advance!"
"That makes sense!" Maokai thought seriously for a moment and nodded: "I am one-sided."
"It's okay, you're also considering the results." Abu consoled him, "That's settled then Everyone, have a good rest tomorrow, get into good shape, and strive to win all the games in the group stage and qualify!"
