The competition is from March 14 to March 16.

So on March 11, I and E planned to set off from Pudong Airport and stay in Poland for a day or two, so as not to suddenly become unacceptable to the local environment when the competition suddenly starts.

After all, Poland is in Europe, with a time difference of seven hours away from Beijing. If the time difference between these players who have never been to Europe does not reverse and affect their performance, then it will be over.

Before leaving, the most worth mentioning thing is the phone call A Xiu called Chen Mu.

She told Chen Mu happily that this time, in order to cultivate and develop excellent commentators, the official actually gave her and D-mother, who was also at LSP, the same commentator, the opportunity to explain the IEM8 scene!

Although it has not been determined which game to explain, I think as long as I can win all the way and reach the final, I will definitely have the chance to explain Chen Mu's game in person!

Feeling Ah Xiu's happiness and joy on the other end of the phone, a warm current surged in Chen Mu's heart.

This little girl said at the beginning that her biggest wish was to sit in the commentary seat and witness her own big victory in the World Championship... Now it seems that this day will come early?

However, after Chen Mu hung up the phone with A Xiu, he still looked firmly into the distance and clenched his fists tightly.

When he went there, not to mention the lovely fans in China and millions of Chinese players, but just for A Xiu and those around him who care about him, he must perform well and not let the honor of the world champion fall behind again!

...

Because e and ig went on a battle at the same time, the two teams were on the same plane, so the members of both sides were chatting casually during the journey.

Chen Mu sat with pdd, but on his right was smiling and strawberry.

Smile has a nickname called facial paralysis, which describes him being serious on the field and it is difficult to have any rich expression fluctuations.

Although the smile is great in private, he is not as cheerful and slutty as strawberry and pdd at the end of the day.

So Chen Mu was having fun talking with the Beer God on this journey.

Chen Mu looked at Strawberry and smiled and was optimistic about the iem8 campaign this time. He also always wanted to find opportunities to make them wary of the black technology of European and American teams.

But on the one hand, he is a newcomer who is only a professional, and on the IG team, it is difficult to rely on his seniority to force suggestions;

On the other hand, he has no foreign war experience except the Singapore station. He suddenly said inexplicably that GMB and C9 have black technology tricks, so he must be careful. Wouldn't that be too funny?

There is no way. Chen Mu, with the original intention of hoping that all LPL teams can achieve good results in the World Championship, revealed some news to Strawberry indirectly.

As for whether e will listen, it is not something Chen Mu can do.

...

Katowice, Poland, is a very beautiful city, especially in March, which can be described as growing grass and flying birds and sunshine.

But that's not the point.

It can be clearly seen that the entire IG team, including Awakened PDD and Xiaoxiao, are not interested in visiting Katowice.

Time is tight, and they want to keep their hands on the European server as soon as possible and adjust their work and rest early.

Otherwise, according to Chen Mu, it would be too difficult for them to break out of the death group this time... After all, whether it is FNC or KTB, they are the best world-class teams in this era!

Yes.

A few days before the game, the specific schedule was made public.

In terms of the competition system, the most cruel and fair double-loss system in the group stage was adopted.

This double-loss competition system, in a simple way, means that if you have the strength to keep winning, you can easily qualify in the group until the championship;

Even if you are careless and lose a game, it will still have little impact. There is also a loser group that can bring you back the king.

But if you lose two games in a row, then you will be eliminated fairly... You can't say that every time you fail, you will be careless and blame your bad luck?

Therefore, the double defeat system convinced all participating teams and had no comments.

But this time IEM8 is still not very friendly to IG.

Because of his group, IG, FNC and KTB, three teams with the strength to win the championship, were in the same group!

Although I didn't face KTB in the first round and would not fall into the loser's group in one round, FNC is still an extremely difficult opponent... It is definitely more than one level stronger than mln that KTB wants to play!

Let’s look at ig’s compatriots e.

Even in their group, there are strong teams like TPA and C9.

But in fact, there is no problem with KTB's Korean team being the only one. TPA and C9 are not as good as FNC, which has been winning wildly in Europe for the time being, so the chance of E entering the finals is still much higher than IG.

However, the game is imminent, and I won't have any extra time to blame this randomly allocated competition system.

They were already staying in the hotel, and at night, they followed Su Xiaoluo and local tour guides and translators to an Internet cafe in the city center, intending to continue practicing.

As the commander-in-chief of the team and the head of BP, Chen Mu is still watching the recent game of FNC on his mobile phone...

Speaking of fnc, we have to say that s4's fnc is actually not inferior to the so-called Korean team in terms of card appearance and fame.

Although during the S5 period, FNC defeated all sides in the finals and gave EG a four-to-zero strong position to reach the semi-finals, FNC had already left the most important soul figure Xpeke, and the main arry was also relying on the top laner Korean aid Huni.

So in comparison, S4's fnc has Xpeke in charge and is also a famous top laner soaz.

In addition to the popular duo of the lower lane rekkles and yellostar... I really need to have a good face and strength.

At least Chen Mu still modestly believed that Ou Chen and Huang Xing's bottom lane must be bigger than their ig.

Then Xpeke, one of the three great Dharma kings in Europe, would not be afraid of his posture online.

In addition, Europe and the United States have always had black technology moves, and various team battle operations are extremely difficult to delay the later stage of the tactics. The difficulty of IEM8's first battle this time is definitely greater than that of IEM8's life-and-death battle with EDG or OMG.

Otherwise, I would not have prepared for the battle so carefully now. You must know that even though they went to the IEM8 Singapore Station, they did not seize all the time and race against time like this time!

...

The domestic lp will be suspended for one week this week.

Naturally, all players in the circle will look at the ig and e in Poland... I hope these two teams will surprise them rather than frighten them.

Originally, most domestic players still think that ig and e would easily enter the knockout stage.

After all, these four words "European and American" have always been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
