Chapter 399: Stepping on the head of the Koreans to win the championship
"How long will the draw start? Why is it so slow?" Jack Lawu asked.
"Are you crazy? Can't you see such a big countdown on the big screen?" Xu Guoyu replied.
On the day of the draw of the quarterfinals, the entire LNG team was preparing to watch the draw ceremony of the quarterfinals in the hotel. The official staff in charge of the shooting also prepared to use a video recorder to faithfully record this scene.
Seeing that there was still some time before the lottery ceremony began, the official staff came over to do an interview:
"Which team do you want to meet the most in this knockout draw?"
Jack Spicy scratched his head:
"The other two teams in lpl don't want to meet. If you have to choose one, it's JD."
"I also chose JD.com because I have fought with JD.com so many times and are so familiar with it, it will feel boring to fight." Xiao Ming said.
"My words should be Suning, because Suning has an old friend of mine," said Kasa. "This time it's rare that the two of us who came out of the Lightning Wolf have reached the quarterfinals. I hope we can play until the end."
"Dwg, because I think Niu Guli is the strongest among the other seven teams that have reached the quarterfinals. To be honest, I don't want to go against him very much." Saint Gun Brother said.
"Where is Brother Stick? Do you have any teams you don't want to meet?"
"For me personally, there is really no team that I don't want to meet, even JD." Xu Guoyu said indifferently.
"Ah? But if you count Chun Jue and Xia Jue, you have played two bo5s with Jingdong. Don't you think they are too familiar with each other?"
"Uncle, I think you don't understand at all," Xu Guoyu glanced at the staff disdainfully, and then explained his doubts:
"Do you know what is the fastest general secret to making money in all walks of life?"
“What is it?”
"Kill me! Xia Jue lost one game and I am already very dissatisfied. If I meet in the quarterfinals this time, I must give them another three to zero!"
"Um..." The staff couldn't hold back, thinking that no matter what the real thoughts were in their hearts, they had to pretend on the surface and say something beautiful like hoping not to meet teams in the same competition area.
Unexpectedly, Brother Stick dared to express his true thoughts directly. He is worthy of being King Jiji, and only playing with the truth!
"...But if you want to meet the most in the knockout stage, then I have an opponent I particularly want to play." Xu Guoyu changed his tone and successfully attracted the attention of the staff.
"Is it g2?" the staff guessed, "Based on experience last year and the previous year, the teams that defeated g2 in the knockout stage won the championship in the end."
Xu Guoyu thought about it carefully and found that it seemed like this, and immediately took a breath of heat.
The year before yesterday, I eliminated G2 in the semi-finals and won the world championship for 18 years; last year, FBX defeated G2 in the finals and won the world championship for 19 years; plus the champion DWG in the previous life, I also sent G2 away 3-0 in the semi-finals and zero.
This situation occurs twice, which can be said to be a coincidence, but if it occurs three times in a row, it seems to be a bit metaphysical.
"...It's actually gen.g." Xu Guoyu almost wanted to obey the other party and said it was g2.
"Why?"
Xu Guoyu gave the other party a blank look:
"Because among the three LK teams, all we can meet in the quarterfinals is gen.g?"
According to the principle of evasion of the semi-zone teams in the same group, drx must at least meet them in the finals before they can meet them again, while dwg and lng are both the first in the group, and they must meet them in the semi-finals at the earliest.
"Uh, what I want to ask is why you want to meet teams in the LK competition area, and other teams avoid it, right?"
The official staff member was a little speechless. He had been working in Riot for several years, so it was impossible for him not to know this truth.
"There's no way," Xu Guoyu said with his hands spread out, "It's hard to shut up those Koreans without stepping on the Koreans' heads."
"Think about it, when I won the championship two years ago, although I beat KT head-on, those Korean maids said: Oh, our Korean father's triple-champion team, SKT, did not come, the S8 champion has no value!"
"When FBX won the championship last year, although almost all the previous S-s championships came, and all skt, ig, and fnc fell before the finals, there were still some Korean fans saying that FBX had not encountered a Korean team along the way, and this championship was not recognized by them."
"So I'm quite happy to see all three LK teams reach the quarterfinals this year, because in this way, I have the opportunity to send a Korean team away in each of the three stages of the knockout, semi-finals and finals. I hope that the drawer will be more powerful when the draw will draw later."
"My requirements are not high. At least don't make me a situation where three LPL teams are all in the same half area, and the three LCL teams are all in the other half area. That would be boring. We are here to play the Global Finals, not the LPL playoffs."
—————
"Welcome to the draw site of the knockout stage of the 2020 League of Legends Global Finals. After fierce group stage competition, eight top teams showed their strengths and stood up to the knockout stage of the Global Finals."
"But what awaits them next will be a more cruel schedule and a higher intensity confrontation. We will soon officially start the draw and reveal the situation of the eight-to-four-stage matchup in the knockout stage."
After Xu Guoyu's long discussion, not only made the official staff of the Riot dizzy, but also successfully dragged the lottery ceremony until the official start of the lottery ceremony.
"Guigui, Aunt Aftershock's card, why is she the host of the lottery draw again?" Xiao Ming sighed.
"Your focus is a bit strange. Anyway, it's not her draw lots, so it doesn't matter who will host it. OK. The key is to look at the person who draws lots." Kasa said.
"By the way, is there any tricks in this lottery? Don't make any secret operations. Forcibly lead an OLPL team to the finals." Jack Lawu obviously thought of joining Xu Guoyu.
"It shouldn't be that. At least we won two consecutive championships last year last year. The ones who shouldn't be confident should be other competition areas." said Brother Sheng Gun.
The two guests invited to this lottery ceremony were two FMVP junglers last year and the previous year, Uncle Gao and Uncle Gao's second year.
"Ah, the official is a bit ignorant in this wave. FBX and I haven't even entered the World Championship this year. They even called two players over to draw lots. It's true that they have a shrimp, pig heart." Xu Guoyu complained.
As Xu Guoyu said, Uncle Gao and Uncle Gao's second-year-old also looked like Sima's face at this time, but no matter how reluctant they were, they had to come up with a lot of happiness in the end.
