Chapter 198
The next day, at 9:[-] pm.

Shanghai Hongqiao Tiandi Performing Arts Center.

……

With the end of the last Bo5 game, the last spot in the World Championship was finally determined.

"Next, let us welcome the four teams representing us in the LPL World Championship this time, and come on stage one by one!"

On the main stage, the host looked excited and shouted: "First of all, it is our No. [-] seed, the LNG team!"

"Top laner Ale, jungler Trzan, mid laner Icon, bottom lane Light, support Inwandy, substitute Kedaya."

As the host's voice fell, everyone from LNG who had just defeated Rng and took the last spot stepped onto the stage one by one.

Although they had just played a BO5, the faces of the five players did not show any signs of exhaustion.

Some are just uncontrollable joy!
"Next, let us welcome our No. [-] seed, Team FPX!"

"Top laner Nuguri, jungler Tian, ​​mid laner Doinb, bottom laner Lwx, support Crisp, substitute Xiaolaohu."

……

"Next, it's our second seed, the EDG team!"

"Top laner Flandre, jungler Jiejie, mid laner Scout, bottom laner Viper, support Meiko, and substitute Junjia."

……

"Finally, let's welcome our No. [-] seed, Team UP!"

As the host's voice fell, Yu Qiu and others went straight to the most central position in front of the stage.

"Top laner Zs, jungler H4cker, mid laner Autumn, bottom laner Smlz, support for Summer, backup Gimgoon."

……

"With a dream, a new start! Let's cheer for the four teams together, the 2021 global finals, LPL-do not break, do not stand, set off immediately!"

……

"Okay, I would like to send my best wishes to our four teams again, and hope they can achieve good results in the World Championship."

On the commentary seat, Zeyuan said with emotion: "It's another year of World Championships. This time, I hope that the four teams can bring the expectations of all our LPL fans to Iceland to bring one game after another for themselves and also for our LPL." Victory!"

"Everyone knows that the SN team representing our LPL on the stage of the finals last year regrettably lost to the LCK's DWG, which is now the DK team."

"This year, I hope that no matter which team it is, everyone can do their best and don't leave any regrets!"

"Yes." Miller said with a smile, "It's best to make up for the regrets of last year, and bring us back a championship in the LPL!"

"Actually, there is hope." Zeyuan nodded, and analyzed: "Everyone has seen the situation on the LCK side. To put it bluntly, except for DK, the strength of the other three teams is very impressive."

"If you think about HLE, a team that didn't even make it to the playoffs, but ended up fighting all the way through the bubbling tournament, and won a place in the World Championship, you know how the overall level of the LCK is this year."

"To put it bluntly, apart from DK, other LCK teams are not very competitive for the championship."

"As for Europe, America and the wild-card divisions - G2 in Europe is also down this year, not to mention North America. With the intensity of their games and training matches, I don't think they deserve to compete for the championship, okay?"

"If European and American teams are really allowed to win the championship this year, to be honest, I think many people may have doubts about the operating model of e-sports."

"Think about it, the competition mode in Europe and the United States is Bo1. A team usually plays two or three games a week, and they get off work after training games every day. They are really e-sports civil servants."

"If this allows them to win the championship, then the operating mode of our LPL and LCK has really become a joke."

"really."

Miller grinned and said, "But having said that, everyone knows that our biggest opponent for the LPL championship is actually the LCK."

"Especially this year's DK. Although Msi lost to RNG and experienced a period of sluggishness after coming back, a strong team is a strong team after all. In the second half of the summer split, DK still maintained absolute dominance, even including the finals. Playing against the hot T1, it was also a 3:1 almost sweep."

"So, many netizens on the Internet are discussing whether DK can complete their two consecutive championships this year."

"If they are really allowed to complete it, then they will be the second team in the history of the S game to complete consecutive championships. Of course, the first team is undoubtedly T1 where Li Ge is."

"And judging from the current state of DK, this possibility is actually quite high. As the No. [-] seed of the LCK, they do not seem to be at the same level as the other three teams."

"I don't deny this!" Zeyuan raised his hand and interrupted: "DK is the No. [-] seed. It's good to be strong, but we also have the No. [-] seed in LPL!"

"UP, we are the new king of LPL this year! The whole playoffs went all the way 5-[-], and we reached the finals, only to meet EDG and played a full Bo[-]. Isn't this strength strong?"

Miller shook his head and said with a wry smile: "But you also said that UP and EDG are full in the finals! You must know that EDG was defeated by UP 3:0 in the first round of the playoffs, but they were able to draw with EDG in the second round. UP is full, what does that mean?"

"It shows that UP has developed its weaknesses by EDG, or that EDG has made rapid progress, while UP's overall strength is still stagnant."

"Our schedule for the World Championships is actually very long. If you are so easily discovered by others, in the group stage or relying on the strength of the team's players to suppress you, it will not be a problem to qualify for the top two."

"But in the later knockout rounds, when everyone is fully prepared to play a Bo5, it will not be so easy to fight."

""

"You're right." Zeyuan nodded again and again, and then said with a smile: "So we also saw the latest efforts of the UP team at today's expedition ceremony. They directly carried out a wave of reinforcements for the team's most obvious disadvantaged line. .”

"There is now an extra substitute on the road, and it is still a very strong substitute!"

"Gimgoon player, Brother Gong Zi! Former FPX top laner, world champion in 19!"

"I think UP's reinforcements are very timely and in place. Their coaching staff is actually very clear about what reinforcements their team needs now."

"The biggest problem with Zs in the top lane is its unstable performance. It's a ghost game. If you have someone to help you, you can play an advantage, and if you don't help, it's easy to blow up the line."

"In the case of stable performance in the bottom lane and excellent performance in the middle and wild, UP does not need a C top laner to win the game. They only need to stabilize the unstable point in the top lane and rely on the linkage between the middle and the wild. It is enough to bring about the overall rhythm!"

"And when it comes to stability, I think that among the top laners in recent years, if Gong Zige ranks second, no one can rank first!"

"So, introducing Gimgoon to make up for the lack of top lane, this is definitely the most correct choice made by UP in the past few days after winning the championship!"
